Outcomes of Root Canal Treatment in Patients With Autoimmune Disease: A Retrospective Case–Control Study

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The purpose of this study was to compare the outcome of nonsurgical root canal treatment (RCT) in patients with autoimmune diseases (AD) with the outcome in patients without AD. The null hypothesis was: there is no difference in the outcomes of RCT regardless of the patient group. Results were also compared among AD subgroups: inflammatory
