Does the presence of an unerupted lower third molar influence the risk of mandibular angle and condylar fractures?
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2016)
It has been suggested that unerupted lower third molars (M3) increase the fragility of the mandibular angle and simultaneously decrease the risk of condylar fracture. However, it is unknown whether this applies regardless ...
Association of CXCL12 gene promoter methylation with periodontitis in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Objectives: CXCL12 is widely expressed, constitutive chemokine involved in tissue repair and regeneration, while the extent of its expression is important in various chronic inflammatory conditions. Involvement of DNA ...
Growth hormone positive effects on craniofacial complex in Turner syndrome
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Objective: Turner syndrome occurs in phenotypic females with complete or partial absence of X chromosome. The leading symptom is short stature, while numerous but mild stigmata manifest in the craniofacial region. These ...
Differences in cytocompatibility, dynamics of the oxide layers' formation, and nickel release between superelastic and thermo-activated nickel-titanium archwires
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2016)
Superelastic (SE) and thermo-activated (TA) nickel-titanium (NiTi) archwires are used in everyday orthodontic practice, based on their acceptable biocompatibility and well-defined shape memory properties. However, the ...
Survivin, cyclin D1, and p21hras in keratocystic odontogenic tumors before and after decompression
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2016)
ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate survivin, cyclin D1, and p21hras expression in keratocystic odontogenic tumors before and after decompression, as well as in pericoronal follicles. A potential correlation ...
Copeptin Levels Do Not Correlate With Cross-Clamping Time in Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy Under General Anesthesia
(Sage Publications Inc, Thousand Oaks, 2016)
Copeptin is a sensitive and more stable surrogate marker for arginine vasopressin. In this study, we evaluated copeptin levels in carotid endarterectomy (CEA) patients, perioperatively, to determine whether copeptin levels ...

Impact of the lower third molar and injury mechanism on the risk of mandibular angle and condylar fractures
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2016)
BackgroundPrevious studies have shown the influence of the mandibular third molar on mandibular angle and condylar fractures, but have not comparatively analyzed the impact of the injury mechanism on these fractures. The ...
Quantification of structural changes in acute inflammation by fractal dimension, angular second moment and correlation
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2016)
The aim of the study was to examine alteration and possible application of fractal dimension, angular second moment, and correlation for quantification of structural changes in acutely inflamed tissue. Acute inflammation ...
