A New Model of Skull Base Reconstruction following Expanded Endonasal or Transoral Approaches – Long-Term Results in Primates
2007
<i>Objective:</i> The direct endonasal or transoral transclival approaches to the skull base permit effective minimally invasive surgery along the clivus region. Developing consistently effective techniques to prevent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks and their consequences (infections and healing processes with long and complicated recoveries) remains a major challenge. In this study, we tested over a long period a method of bone reconstruction newly developed by us, which makes use of a specially designed elastic silicone plug that can be employed for bone replacement after minimally invasive skull base surgery without risk of postoperative CSF leaks. After acute testing of plug…
Association between maxillary and mandibular apical base lengths and severity of dental crowding or spacing in Class II malocclusion subjects: An
2018
Background Anterior crowding/ spacing are one of the major problems that inspire patients to undergo orthodontic treatment. Several factors associated with anterior crowding/ spacing includes arch width and length, mesio-distal tooth diameter and proportions. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship of maxillary and mandibular base lengths to the amount of anterior dental crowding/ spacing in patients with complete class II malocclusions. Material and methods A retrospective study was done with 152 patients who were divided into four groups according to the severity of pre-treatment dental crowding/spacing present in the mandibular arch. Measurements were performed on t…
Comparative evaluation of orthodontic bracket base shapes on shear bond strength and adhesive remnant index : an in vitro study
2017
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of orthodontic bracket base shape on shear bond strength and adhesive remnant index. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this in vitro study using 140 bovine incisors, shear bond strength (SBS) of brackets with different base shapes (rectangle, flower, round, heart, diamond, star, and football) were measured with an Instron testing machine and tested until bond failure. Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI) scoring was evaluated after debonding to evaluate the location of bond failure. Descriptive and one-way ANOVA post-hoc Tukey statistical analyses were performed with a statistical significance set at p≤0.05. RESULTS Statistically significant d…
Non-stationary spectral moments of base excited MDOF systems
1988
The paper deals with the evaluation of non-stationary spectral moments of multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) line systems subjected to seismic excitations. The spectral moments of the response are evaluated in incremental form solution by means of an unconditionally stable step-by-step procedure. As an application, the statistics of the largest peak of the response are also evaluated.
Baryon resonance analysis from MAID
2009
The unitary isobar model MAID2007 has been used to analyze the recent data of pion electroproduction. The model contains all four-star resonances in the region below W=2 GeV and both single-Q^2 and Q^2 dependent transition form factors could be obtained for the Delta, Roper, D13(1520), S11(1535), S31(1620), S11(1650), D15(1675), F15(1680) and P13(1720). From the complete world data base, including also pi- data on the neutron, also Q^2 dependent neutron form factors are obtained. For all transition form factors we also give convenient numerical parameterizations that can be used in other reactions. Furthermore, we show how the transition form factors can be used to obtain empirical transver…
Optimal maps and exponentiation on finite dimensional spaces with Ricci curvature bounded from below
2013
We prove existence and uniqueness of optimal maps on $RCD^*(K,N)$ spaces under the assumption that the starting measure is absolutely continuous. We also discuss how this result naturally leads to the notion of exponentiation.
ChemInform Abstract: Asymmetric Synthesis of Monofluorinated 1-Amino-1,2-dihydronaphthalene and 1,3-Amino Alcohol Derivatives.
2016
Enantioenriched 1-amino-4-fluoro-1,2-dihydronaphthalene derivatives are accessed via two complementary synthetic strategies. The careful optimization of the reaction conditions required for the elimination step in one route has allowed both the identification of an anchimerically assisted reaction pathway and, more importantly, access to a divergent reaction pathway toward fluorinated 1,3-amino alcohols from a common intermediate just by adjusting the number of equivalents of base used.
ChemInform Abstract: Intramolecular Michael Reaction of tert-Butylsulfinyl Ketimines: Asymmetric Synthesis of 3-Substituted Indanones.
2012
The reaction proceeds in the presence of the Ruppert—Prakash reagent (Tms-CF3) with either TBAT or TBAF as a base.
ChemInform Abstract: Base-Catalyzed Isomerization of 2-Isoxazolines Enables a Two-Step Enantioselective Synthesis of β-Hydroxynitriles from Enals.
2011
Treatment of chiral isoxazoles with catalytic amounts of DBU results in efficient formation of optically active β-hydroxynitriles.
Comparative evaluation of postoperative pain and periapical healing after root canal treatment using three different base endodontic sealers – A rand…
2022
Abstract Backgroundː Endodontic Sealers come in direct contact with periapical tissue through the apical foramen and lateral canals, influencing the postoperative pain and periapical healing. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare postoperative pain and periapical healing after root canal treatment using different base endodontic sealers.Methodsː Primary root canal treatment was initiated in 63 patients diagnosed with necrotic pulp and apical periodontitis, followed by which the endodontic sealers used for obturation were selected based on the random allocation of the participants to the following groups; Tubli-Seal, AH Plus and BioRoot RCS. Postoperative pain was recorded…
