Analysis of the possible benefits of aspheric intraocular lenses: review of the literature.
2008
We reviewed recently published studies that analyzed the visual and optical quality in eyes with different spherical and aspheric intraocular lenses (IOLs). Recent studies focused on visual quality metrics, such as visual acuity and contrast sensitivity, under photopic and mesopic lighting conditions and optical metrics, such as wavefront aberrations, especially spherical aberration. The results in this review were used in an attempt to understand whether there is a visual and/or optical benefit of implanting aspheric IOLs over implanting spherical IOLs.
Biological and technical complications of tilted implants in comparison with straight implants supporting fixed dental prostheses. A systematic revie…
2018
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the implant failure, marginal bone loss (MBL), and other biological or technical complications of restorations supported by tilted and straight implants after at least 3 years in function. METHODS Electronic and manual searches were performed in MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and OpenGrey to identify clinical studies published up to December 2017. After duplicate study selection and data extraction, the risk of bias was assessed with the ROBINS-I tool. Random-effects meta-analyses of relative risks (RRs) or mean differences (MD) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were performed, followed by subgroup/sensitivity analyses and application of the GRADE approach. R…
On erbium lattice location in ion implanted Si0.75Ge0.25 alloy
2003
A high crystalline quality Si0.75Ge0.25 alloy layer grown by chemical vapor deposition was implanted with 70 keV Er+ ions to a fluence of 1015 cm−2 at temperature of 550 °C. The implantation was found to result in an Er depth distribution with 1 at. % maximum concentration 30 nm beneath the surface. The location of the erbium atoms in the host matrix lattice is derived through computer simulation of experimental axial channeling angular scans measured by in situ Rutherford backscattering/channeling spectrometry. Using computer code FLUX 7.7 it is shown that 60% of the implanted erbium atoms are located at ytterbium sites, 10% at tetrahedral sites, and the remainder are associated with rando…

Approche chronoculturelle de l'habitat de la fin du Néolithique en Provence
2006
A paraitre dans les actes des journées de la Société Préhistorique Française de Marseille 23-24 mai 2003 : "De la maison au village dans le Néolithique du sud de la France et du nord-ouest méditerranéen"; La dimension culturelle de l'habitat est généralement reconnue à travers de nombreuses cultures et tout au long de l'Histoire. Le récent colloque Habitat et Société qui a insisté sur les relations entre l'habitat et les notions d'identités culturelles nous a amené à interroger en ce sens les données de la fin du Néolithique provençal : Existe-t-il des spécificités chronoculturelles de l'habitat pour la fin du Néolithique en Provence ? Et, selon le schéma général proposé, l'habitat peut-il …
P-Type Doping of 4H-SiC for Integrated Bipolar and Unipolar Devices
2015
International audience; P-type 4H-SiC layers formed by ion implantation need high temperature processes, which generate surface roughness, losing and incomplete activation of dopants. Due to dopant redistribution and channeling effect, it is difficult to predict the depth of the formed junctions. Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) selective epitaxy is an alternative method to obtain locally highly doped p-type layers in the 1020 cm-3 range or more. The depth of this p-type layers or regions is accurately controlled by the initial Reactive-Ion-Etching (RIE) of the SiC. Lateral Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET) devices are fabricated by integrating p-type layers created by Al ion implantation or …
Soft tissue integration of different abutment surfaces: An experimental study with histological analysis
2021
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether abutment surface and surface bio-activation have an effect on soft tissue morphogenesis. MATERIALS AND METHODS 36 patients (36 implants) were included. Abutments were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 9): Smooth Surface-MAChined (MAC), Ultrathin Threaded Microsurface (UTM), MAC Plasma of Argon activated (Plasma-MAC), and UTM Plasma of Argon activated (Plasma-UTM). After 2 months of healing, soft tissue samples were collected and prepared for histological analysis. The margin of the peri-implant mucosa (PM), the apical extension of the barrier epithelium (aJE), and the apical location of the abutment (AM) were identified. Significances of differences among gro…
Systemic risk factors for peri-implant bone loss: a systematic review and meta-analysis
2014
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of patient-related systemic risk factors (systemic disease, genetic traits, chronic drug or alcohol consumption, and smoking status) on peri-implant bone loss at least 1 year after implant installation and prosthetic loading. An electronic search was performed of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials up to January 2012. One thousand seven hundred and sixty-three studies were identified. After applying a three-stage screening process, 17 articles were included in the qualitative analysis, but only 13 in the quantitative analysis, since smoking was a common exposure. The meta-analysis of these 13 studies (4…
Fast algorithm for detection of reference spheres in digital panoramic radiography.
2009
In this paper, an algorithm for detection of reference spheres from digital panoramic radiographic images is presented. The proposed algorithm was tested on a database of 107 digital panoramic radiographic images which were used for dental diagnostics. Results show that the proposed method exhibits for detection of reference spheres, a sensitivity of 97.33% and specificity of 93.85%. Performance time differed between 0.55 and 2.36s depending on image size. The aim of this work was to provide a fast ellipse detection algorithm to reduce measuring time on preoperative implant planning by lowering the computational cost.
