Barium sulphate is added to polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement as a radiopacifier. Gentamicin is an antibiotic added to bone cement to treat or prevent infection in arthroplasty. This study investigated the combined effect of barium sulphate and gentamicin sulphate on the fatigue strength of
The present investigation evaluated the step stress accelerated test (SSALT) load profiles on the survival probability of a glass ceramic under two surface conditions (polished or roughened).Suprinity-ZLS blocks (Vita Zhanfabrik) were shaped into cylinders, It has been recently shown that human adolescents with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) have frontal lobe deficits, especially on the right sides of their brains (). ADHD is commonly treated with psychostimulants which may have adverse consequences. Hence, less invasive therapies need
Recently, several new resin-modified glassionomers have been introduced on the dental market. At the moment a real confusion exists over the right terminology of the products and its limits in use. Therefore, an in vitro and in vivo study with simultaneously a comparison with conventional

Various materials that are used for vascular and heart valve prostheses carry drawbacks: some require anticoagulant drugs or have moderate durability; others are not suitable for endovascular treatment. These prostheses are associated with bacterial infections. A material potentially suitable for
Metoclopramide is commonly used to treat vomiting caused by seasickness and acute gastroenteritis on cruise ships and serious adverse effects have not been reported from use at sea. We report severe long-lasting adverse effects in a young female seafarer following short-term, low-dose use of
BACKGROUND
The cyclic fatigue of nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary instruments has been studied extensively, but there is little information available on torsional fracture. Moreover, a clinical repeated locking effect was not considered in previous studies that evaluated torsional resistance of NiTi
To evaluate the effect of internal roughness and bonding on the load to failure and structural reliability (Weibull analysis) of a lithium disilicate-based glass ceramic under different testing scenarios.
IPS e.max CAD blocks (Ivoclar Vivadent AG) were shaped into cylinders (N=100), crystalized
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of duodenum-preserving resections of the head of the pancreas in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis this study was devised. So far studies on the natural course and the different therapeutic approaches have primarily focused on pain measurement in rough
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of different surface treatment of zirconia and to find the best way to reduce the wear of its antagonist.
METHODS
Twenty-five plates(5 mm×10 mm×15 mm) made of zirconia were divided into five equal groups. Group A was only ground, group B was ground and polished,
OBJECTIVE
The authors describe a new type of artificial disc called a single-unit artificial disc (SUAD). It is a single-unit disc without components, and there is no fixation system with which to maintain it in the disc space. It is theorized that its shape, hardness, and surface consistency,
To observe the effect of electroacupuncture(EA) at "Shenmen"(HT7) and "Sanyinjiao"(SP6)on energy metabolism in paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of hypothalamus in insomnia rats, so as to explore its mechanism underlying improvement of
