Both bond strength and flexural strength differed among three luting agents. The effect of the priming agent on bond strength differed among the luting agents. Both the bond and flexural strength of a chemically polymerized luting agent differed before or after thermocycling.

Both bond strength and flexural strength differed among three luting…[Read more]

Increasingly, persons with self-reported health symptoms are using mobile health technologies to better understand, validate, and manage their symptoms. These off-the-shelf devices primarily utilize actigraphy to estimate sleep and activity. The purpose of this study was to describe qualitatively the experience of using a personal sleep monitoring…[Read more]

Overall, there is evidence of an important role of brainstem disruptions in ASD, but there is still the need to examine the brainstem across the life span, from infancy to adulthood which could lead the way for early diagnosis and possibly treatment of ASD.The anatomy of the cortical motor system and its relationship to motor repertoire in…[Read more]

A key question was whether Sanger sequencing failed to detect fluoroquinolone resistance in any samples; overall, we observed that Sanger sequencing failed to detect fluoroquinolone resistance in up to 3.8% (16/423) of samples.

The presence of mixed susceptibility infections may have important implications for clinical patient management…[Read more]

Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) has been used as one of the main model systems for studying molecular mechanisms underlying cellular aging. A major technical challenge in studying aging in yeast is the isolation of aged cells from exponentially growing cell cultures, since aged cells in such cultures are rare. Several methods for isolating aged…[Read more]

Questionnaire data on symptom severity, quality of life and mood were collected at visit #2.

63 consecutive patients fulfilling the 1994 case definition for CFS underwent lean testing at first visit and then annually at visit 2 (n = 48) and 3 (n = 29).

Supine hypocapnia; orthostatic tachycardia, hypocapnia or hypoten…[Read more]

Background Annual rankings by US News and World Report are a widely utilized metric by both health care leaders and patients. One longstanding measure is time to treatment of femur shaft fractures. Hospitals able to provide at least 80% of pediatric patients with an operating room start time within 18 hours of admission to the emergency department…[Read more]

Adoptive transfer of RUPP NKs into Sham rats resulted in elevated NK activation, UARI, placental oxidative stress, and preproendothelin expression as well as reduced circulating nitrate/nitrite. This led to maternal hypertension and IUGR. RUPP recipients of Sham NKs demonstrated normalized NK activation, sFlt-1, circulating and placental VEGF, and…[Read more]

These results demonstrate the dual nature of quercetin action in copper-related neurodegeneration. Hence, they are relevant in the context of considering quercetin as a possible therapeutic for neuroprotection and imply that detailed pharmacological and toxicological studies must be carried out for natural compounds capable of acting both as…[Read more]
