Association between regional heterogeneity in the mid-facial bone micro-architecture and increased fragility along Le Fort lines
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
Background/AimLe Fort lines have traditionally been considered as zones of weakness in the mid-facial skeleton although the structural basis of increased bone fragility at these sites has not yet been investigated. Considering ...

Association of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR)-317AA genotype with poor response to methotrexate in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
(Clinical & Exper Rheumatology, Pisa, 2012)
Objectives Identifying genetic predictors of methotrexate (MTX) treatment response in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have great importance for optimising drug doses required for clinical benefit without toxicity. ...
An in vitro study of temperature changes in type 4 bone during implant placement: bone condensing versus bone drilling
(Mosby-Elsevier, New York, 2011)
Objective. The aim of this study was to compare changes in temperature of the surrounding bone at various osteotomy depths during implant site preparation by bone condensing and by bone drilling as well as the dynamics of ...
Association of the TYMS 3G/3G genotype with poor response and GGH 354GG genotype with the bone marrow toxicity of the methotrexate in RA patients
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2013)
Purpose Gamma-glutamyl hydrolase (GGH), cyclin D1 (CCND1) and thymidylate synthase (TS) genes encode enzymes that are involved in methotrexate (MTX) action. In a group of 184 RA patients treated with MTX, we have investigated ...
