The aim of this study was to establish the relative importance risk factors for mortality after acute upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage, and formulate a simple numerical scoring system that categorizes patients by risk. A prospective, unselected, multicentre, population based undertaken using standardised questionnaires in two phases one year apart. total 4185 cases haemorrhage over age 16 identified four month period 1993 1625 subsequently three 1994 were included study. It found age,...
To describe the current epidemiology of acute upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage.Population based, unselected, multicentre, prospective survey.74 hospitals receiving emergency admissions in four health regions United Kingdom.4185 cases haemorrhage which patients were aged over 16 years identified months.Incidence and mortality.The overall incidence Kingdom is 103/100,000 adults per year. The rises from 23 those under 30 to 485 75. At all ages men was more than double that women except...
A prospective audit of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in 36 hospitals across two regions provided data from 14,149 gastroscopies which 1113 procedures were therapeutic and 13,036 diagnostic. Most patients received gastroscopy under intravenous sedation; midazolam was the preferred agent North West diazepam East Anglia. Mean doses each used 5.7 mg 13.8 respectively, although there a wide distribution reported. Only half endoscoped had some form access situ few supplied with supplementary...
Abstract A considerable amount of work has been performed on methods detecting individuals with low bone mass at an early stage. Some researchers have considered if dental radiographs could a role in the detection osteoporosis. basic requirement for this would be that jaw relates significantly to other skeletal sites which osteoporosis is significant problem. The first aim study was investigate relationship between mandibular mineral density (BMD) and commonly used densitometry second assess...

To examine the radiomorphometric indices of mandible on panoramic radiographs in a population British female patients, to identify their normal ranges and investigate relationships with age, detentition social class.Five indices, cortical width at gonion (GI) below mental foramen (MI), mandibular index (PMI), (MCI) one new (measurement antegonion; AI), were measured bilaterally 500 females by trained observer. The measurements analysed for ease application, repeatability, dentition class...
Abstract Periostin was originally identified in MC3T3‐E1 osteoblast‐like cells. We have an isoform of periostin referred to as periostin‐like‐factor (PLF). It is homologous other proteins such fasciclin I (fas I), MPB70, βIG‐H3, and Algal‐CAMs. All these are implicated regulating cell adhesion. PLF the isoforms differ their C‐terminal sequences. two specific regions, between 673 699 amino acids (aa) 785–812 aa. expressed vivo vitro during stages osteoblast differentiation maturation. Their...
Abstract Aim: To determine the cross‐sectional association of osteoporotic status patients with number their teeth, and without taking into account age and/or smoking. Material & Methods: At four centres, study recruited 665 females aged 45–70 years teeth was counted for 651 subjects. Bone density measured at total hip, femoral neck lumbar spine. Results: The mean in subjects 3.3 fewer than normal 2.1 if those no were excluded. between osteoporosis having <6 or <28 remained...
The purpose of our study was to investigate how image magnification and distortion in dental panoramic radiography are influenced by object size position for a small round such as ball bearing used calibration.Two bearings (2.5 mm 6 diameter) were placed at approximately the same between teeth plastic skull radiographed 21 times. replaced each time. Their images measured software using edge detection ellipse-fitting algorithms. Using standard definition magnification, equations derived...
To evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of three-dimensional (3D) printed denture base resin incorporating TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs), subjected to a ageing process.Acrylic samples were prepared by Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing technique reinforced with different concentrations (0.10, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75) silanated NPs. The resulting nanocomposite materials characterized in terms degree conversion (DC), sorption/solubility flexural strength, impact Vickers hardness Martens...
