Determination of Stresses and Forces on the Orthodontic System by Using Numerical Simulation of the Finite Elements Method
(Polish Acad Sciences Inst Physics, Warsaw, 2012)
This study was addressed to use knowledge about the orthodontic system with numerical simulation of the finite elements method. For the first time we simulated the stresses on the orthodontic system and, in this manner, ...
Biocompatibility of Three Root End Filling Materials
(Amer Scientific Publishers, Valencia, 2014)
Dental materials should be biocompatible, in order to prevent any adverse effects on the surrounding tissue caused by direct contact. The ideal root end filling material must have certain characteristics, including ...
Association Between the Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Polymorphisms and Risk of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Serbian Children
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, 2010)
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) regulates the metabolism of folate and methionine, essential components of DNA synthesis and methylation. Polymorphisms in the MTHFR gene have been associated with susceptibility ...
Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Endogenous Inhibitors in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and Aortoiliac Occlusive Disease (Syndrome Leriche)
(Charles Univ Prague, First Faculty Medicine, Prague 6, 2017)
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) play a complex role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. We compared (1) the histopathological findings in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms ...
The MMP-2 and MMP-9 promoter polymorphisms and susceptibility to salivary gland cancer
(Balkan Union of Oncology (B.U.ON.), 2016)
Purpose: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of endopeptidases that may play an important role in the development of salivary gland cancer (SGC). MMP-2 and MMP-9, members of the gelatinase protein family, are ...
After-Hours Versus Office-Hours Dental Injuries in Children: Does Timing Influence Outcome?

(Mosher and Linder, Inc, 2017)
Purpose: To assess the push-out strength, the cement layer thickness and the interfacial nanoleakage of prefabricated fiber posts, CAD/CAM fiber posts and metal cast posts cemented into oval-shaped root canals. Methods: ...
Clamp-Crushing vs. Radiofrequency-Assisted Liver Resection: Changes in Liver Function Tests
(H G E Update Medical Publishing S A, Athens, 2012)
Background/Aims: Liver resection is the gold standard in managing patients with metastatic or primary liver cancer. The aim of our study was to compare the traditional clamp-crushing technique to the radiofrequency-assisted ...
Scaling analysis of time series of daily prices from stock markets of transitional economies in the Western Balkans
(Springer, New York, 2014)
In this paper we have analyzed scaling properties of time series of stock market indices (SMIs) of developing economies of Western Balkans, and have compared the results we have obtained with the results from more developed ...
