Rapid maxillary expansion and surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion effects on nasal volume
(E H ANGLE EDUCATION RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC, 2006)
The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME) on nasal volume using acoustic rhinometric methods. Two groups of subjects ...
Dependence of film thickness on the structural and optical properties of ZnO thin films
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2009)
ZnO thin films are prepared on glass substrates by pulsed filtered cathodic vacuum arc deposition (PFCVAD) at room temperature. Optical parameters such as optical transmittance, reflectance, band tail, dielectric coefficient, ...
Periodontal Healing of Marginal Flap Versus Paramarginal Flap in Palatally Impacted Canine Surgery: A Prospective Study
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2009)
Purpose: The aim of the present study was to compare the influence of 2 mucoperiosteal flaps, marginal and paramarginal, on the periodontal healing of adjacent maxillary teeth after extraction of palatally impacted canines. ...
Multi-objective optimization of some process parameters of a multi-gravity separator for chromite concentration
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008)
The multi-gravity separator (MGS) is one of the fine particle mineral concentration machines based on gravity separation. Concentration performance, indicators such as grade and recovery, depends on appropriate selection ...
Adsorption of some textile dyes by hexadecyltrimethylammonium bentonite
(SCIENTIFIC TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2001)
In this study, hexadecyltrimethylammonium (HDTMA) bentonite was synthesized by placing alkylammonium cation onto bentonite. Adsorption of some textile dyes such as Everdirect Supra Yellow PG, Everdirect Supra Orange 26 CG, ...
Sulfotransferase 1A1 (SULT1A1) polymorphism and susceptibility to primary brain tumors
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Purpose Sulfotransferase 1A1 is a member of sulfotransferase family that plays an important role in the biotransformation of numerous carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds through sulfation. The present study has investigated ...
Investigation of mixed convection heat transfer in a horizontal channel with discrete heat sources at the top and at the bottom
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2006)
Mixed convection heat transfer from arrays of discrete heat sources inside a horizontal channel has been investigated experimentally. Each of the lower and upper surfaces of the channel was equipped with 8 x 4 flush mounted ...
Combination of different size distributions for mineral particles by applying experimentally determined apparent mean shape factor
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2008)
As is well known, the behavior of systems of fine particles is strongly dependent on the size of the individual particles, and the size effects become increasingly important as the particles become progressively smaller. ...
Analysis of vascular endothelial growth factor gene 936 C/T polymorphism in patients with familial Mediterranean fever
(WILEY, 2008)
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a cytokine that promotes endothelial cell proliferation, leucocyte chemotaxis and expression of adhesion molecules and is a major mediator of vascular permeability. It has been ...
Sympathetic skin responses in reflex sympathetic dystrophy
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2006)
This study was performed to determine the utility of sympathetic skin response (SSR) in evaluating the sympathetic function and to follow up the effects of sympathetic blockade in reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD). Thirty ...
