NSCLC-associated data sets were collected from the assistant for clinical bioinformatics and TCGA databases respectively. The association between FHL2 and clinical characteristics, the prognostic significance of FHL2 and the influences of various variables on NSCLC were determined by Pearson's chi-squared test, the Kaplan–Meier curve and the Cox regression model respectively. FHL2 level was altered by cell transfection and was measured by qRT-PCR. Tumour xenograft formation was completed by inoculating sh-FHL2/pcDNA-FHL2 transfected cells into BALB/c nude mice. Protein expression was assessed by western blot. Cell apoptosis, proliferation and epithelial - mesenchymal transition (EMT) characteristics were evaluated employing TUNEL, BrdU<sup>+</sup> and microscopic observation respectively. The expression of Ki67 and N-cadherin was assessed by immunohistochemistry. The results showed that FHL2 was highly expressed in NSCLC tissues. Patients with high FHL2 expression experienced lower overall survival probability. FHL2 knockdown promoted apoptosis, but inhibited EMT of A549 and NCI-H460 cells, which was verified by the increased ratios of cleaved caspase 9/caspase 9 and cleaved caspase 3/caspase 3, as well as augmented E-cadherin and reduced N-cadherin. In an in vivo assay FHL2 knockdown decreased tumour volume and weight, repressed EMT, but enhanced apoptosis. FHL2 upregulation showed the opposite effects of FHL2 knockdown. Furthermore, FHL2 upregulation facilitated cell proliferation both in in vitro and in vivo assays.

Under general anaesthesia, access cavity was done. Cleaning and shaping were performed using ProTaper universal rotary instruments. The canals were obturated using cold lateral compaction technique with Gutta percha and Adseal sealer. Furcation perforations were created then randomly sealed using the three materials either immediately or after one month (delayed repair).
