Abstract Evidence suggests that brushing with a toothpaste may slow plaque reformation over 24 h. This study measured the effect of alone on regrowth 96 h period and compared water known antiplaque agent chlorhexidine. At 9 a.m. at beginning 7,4‐day no oral hygiene periods, 10 volunteers were scaled polished. Al 5 p.m. subjects brushed their own teeth until free. Each subject rinsed for I min ml randomly allocated rinse. Rinsing was repeated subsequent days. The rinses water, chlorhexidine...
INDWELLING plastic catheters placed by venesection ("cutdown") have become commonplace in the treatment of seriously ill patients nearly every field clinical practice. Cutdowns are utilized primarily two settings: emergencies or at surgery when a dependable intravenous route large caliber is needed; and, more commonly, intact superficial veins no longer available for needle puncture course prolonged hospitalization. Septic complications cutdowns frequent, ranging from local suppuration and...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects scaffold composition on physical properties, adhesion, and growth bovine articular chondrocytes polylactic acid (PLA)/polyglycolic (PGA) composites. Nonwoven meshes PGA were coated with PLA, using a solvent evaporation technique that resulted in composites fractional PLA contents ranging from 0 68%. compressive modulus scaffolds increased linearly addition less than 1 kPa for approximately 20 68% content. characteristic degradation...
Abstract Research and development has been aimed towards the of toothpastes for oral hygiene gingival health benefits. The most effective antiplaque agent to date, chlorhexidine. is difficult formulate into active toothpaste products. Despite some encouraging findings experimental chlorhexidine toothpastes, there are date no commercially available Based on positive from an gingivitis study, this investigation evaluated 2 one with fluoride, as adjuncts hygiene. study was a double–blind...
Cervical magnetic stimulation is a new technique for stimulating the phrenic nerves, and may offer an alternative to percutaneous electrical assessing diaphragmatic strength in normal subjects patients whom technically difficult or poorly tolerated. We compared cervical with conventional supramaximal bilateral nine subjects. measured oesophageal pressure (Poes), gastric (Pgas) transdiaphragmatic (Pdi). The maximal relaxation rate (MRR) was also measured. mean twitch Pdi 36.5 cmH2O (range...
Skeletal muscle twitch responses may be transiently increased by previous contractions, a phenomenon termed potentiation. The aim of this study was to examine the extent and time course diaphragmatic potentiation its relationship both magnitude duration preceding voluntary contraction.Twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure (PDI) measured in six normal subjects, before after diaphragm contractions 100%, 75%, 50%, 25% maximum PDI (PDImax) sustained for five 10 seconds.Twitch significantly 50%...
Much has been written on the subject of extrinsic tooth discoloration, but, except when pigment is intentionally applied, etiologies and mechanisms are poorly understood. Extrinsic stains have classified as non-metallic or metallic. The usually lies not in dental tissues, but surface deposits, particularly acquired pellicle layer at sites receiving limited cleaning. Whether pigments absorb, adsorb, chemically interact with surfaces unclear. Some merely seem to reflect color apparent source,...
ALTHOUGH ligation of the inferior vena cava for prevention pulmonary emboli is being performed increasingly often a difference opinion still exists regarding choice between inferior-vena-cava ligation, femoral-vein and anticoagulation.

When highly motivated normal subjects perform maximal isocapnic ventilation, a substantial fall in ventilation is observed during the first minute associated with slowing of maximum relaxation rate (MRR) inspiratory muscles. This suggests that these muscles are excessively loaded, raising possibility overt contractile failure diaphragm contributes to ventilation. We therefore investigated effect (MIV) on twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi,Tw) elicited by cervical magnetic stimulation....
Local antimicrobial therapy has been considered for use in the treatment of chronic periodontal disease. This study evaluated chlorhexidine, metronidazole, and tetracycline delivered into pockets an acrylic resin vehicle compared results with root planed untreated sites over a three-month follow-up period. One site per patient where pocketing greater than or equal to 6 mm associated single rooted tooth was randomly allocated one five possible regimens. Baseline measurements included probing...
Abstract This study investigated the effects of root planing and/or placement acrylic strips containing chlorhexidine, metronidazole or tetracycline on composition and antimicrobial susceptibility subgingival flora in chronic periodontitis. 101 periodontal pockets from 73 patients were entered into 6 treatment groups which were, strips, planing, followed by a control, no group. Total anaerobic counts anaerobe/aerobe ratios estimated samples taken before 1, 2, 4, 8 12 weeks after treatment,...
