Effectiveness of a combination of platelet-rich plasma, bovine porous bone mineral and guided tissue regeneration in the treatment of mandibular grade II molar furcations in humans
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2003)
Objective: A combination of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bovine porous bone mineral (BPBM) and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) has been shown to be effective as regenerative treatment for intrabony periodontal defects. The ...
Intensive remodeling of Purkinje cell spines after climbing fibers deafferentation does not involve MAPK and Akt activation
(Blackwell Publishing, Oxford, 2007)
Subtotal lesion of the inferior olive (IO) achieved by treating experimental animals with 3-acetylpyridine (3AP) induces partial Purkinje cells (PCs) deafferentation that leads to PC hyperactivity and new spine formation. ...
Central cholinergic modulation of blood pressure short-term variability
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2006)
The role of neurally born acetylcholine in the central modulation of cardiovascular short-term variability was assessed using a pharmacological probe physostigmine, a cholinesterase inhibitor that can act centrally also. ...
Hydrolytic stability of composite repair bond
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2007)
The hydrolytic stability of composite repairs is a desirable property. In the present study, the composite repair microtensile bond strength, failure mode distribution, and nanoleakage occurrence before and after thermocycling ...
The application of hydrogen peroxide in composite repair
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2007)
This study examined the influence of different surface conditioning methods on composite-to-composite microtensile bond strength. Thirty two-year old composite resin discs were randomly divided into three groups according ...
Specific enhancement of sarcomeric response to Ca2+ protects murine myocardium against ischemia-reperfusion dysfunction
(Amer Physiological Soc, Bethesda, 2005)
Alteration in myofilament response to Ca2+ is a major mechanism for depressed cardiac function after ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) dysfunction. We tested the hypothesis that hearts with increased myofilament response to Ca2+ ...
The effect of sandblasting on adhesion of a dual-cured resin composite to methacrylic fiber posts: Microtensile bond strength and SEM evaluation
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
Objectives: To evaluate the influence of different surface treatments on the microtensile bond strength of a dual-cured resin composite to fiber posts. Methods: Thirty-two glass methacrylate-based fiber posts (GC Corp.) ...
Correlation between atherosclerosis and periodontal putative pathogenic bacterial infections in coronary and internal mammary arteries
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2007)
Chronic infections, such as periodontitis, have been associated with an increase for atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease. The aim of this study was to investigate biopsy samples of coronary and internal mammary ...
Accelerated aging of adhesive-mediated fiber post-resin composite bonds: A modeling approach
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
Objectives: Although fiber posts luted in root canals are not directly exposed to oral fluids, water storage is considered as in vitro accelerated aging test for bonded interfaces. The aim of the study was to evaluate the ...
MAPK activation in cerebellar basket cell terminals after harmaline treatment
(New York Acad Sciences, New York, 2005)
The mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are a family of signal transduction mediators that regulate a number of cellular activities, including cell growth and proliferation, differentiation and survival, via ...
