RESUMO
AIM: To establish and compare the relationship between the distance from the file tip to the apical foramen and the numeric meter reading on the display of three different electronic apex locators (EALs). METHODOLOGY: A total of 12 extracted intact, straight, single-rooted human teeth with complete roots were used. The actual root canal length (AL) was determined after access preparation. For the electronic measurements with each EAL, silicon stops were fixed with auto-polymerizing resin to size 15 K-files at AL and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4 mm short of AL. The data was analysed by two-way anova and Tukey's honestly significant difference (HSD) test for multiple comparisons amongst EALs. Additionally, one-way anova and Tukey's HSD test were carried out for multiple comparisons amongst the measurements of each EAL. RESULTS: There was a statistically significant difference amongst all EALs in indicating the position of file tips in relation to the major foramen (P < 0.05). The correlation between the meter reading and the position of the file tip from the apical foramen was statistically significant in the three EALs. There were significant differences amongst the measurements at distances from 0 to 2 mm in Justy III. In Dentaport, significant differences were found from 0 to 1 mm. However, the E-Magic Finder showed significant differences from 0 to 0.5 mm. CONCLUSIONS: Justy III was more capable of displaying the intracanal position of the file tip from the major foramen in mm whilst advancing through the root canal during electronic measurements than the Dentaport and E-Magic Finder Deluxe.

Researched from immunologic and genetic point of view, 40 patients with Celiac Diseases confirmed and under-treatment. The results were compared with a group of 257 healthy people. The immunologic studies: leucocytes and lymphocytes in blood, the subpopulation of lymphocytes T and B, The immune-reaction studies of immunoglobulin Ig G, Ig M, Ig A and component C III complement didn't show difference between the comparative groups justified perhaps because the group of patients were under-treatment. In the antigen erythrocyte A B O and RHO (A), we can only in those assert that there is an increase of A and B group between the patients than who have O, and they were less exposed to get the disease. Between the histocompatibility antigen, the low presence of A9 B5 B7 BW16 antigen in Celiac patients could be a sign of protection against the disease, contrarily the presence of A1 B8 Dr3 Dr7 could indicate the high risk to get the disease. These finding confirm that the antigen group connected with the major System of histocompatibility, showed the susceptibility to suffer the disease.
