(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2011)Background: Cardiovascular complications are one of the most common and the most serious extraskeletal manifestations of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Infliximab, a monoclonal antibody against tumor necrosis factor, is ... -
Effect of local simvastatin application on mandibular defects
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2007)Osteoinductive characteristics of bone grafts are important for enhancing osseous healing at grafted defect sites. The cholesterol-lowering drug simvastatin has been shown to stimulate bone formation by increasing the gene ... -
Effect of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 on mandibular distraction osteogenesis
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2006)The purpose of this investigation was to study the effects of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) on bone formation of mandibular distraction osteogenesis. Six skeletally mature sheep underwent 10 mm ... -
Effectiveness of the normal-mode ruby laser and the combined (normal-mode plus Q-switched) ruby laser in the treatment of congenital melanocytic nevi: A comparative study
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2002)The effect of the normal-mode ruby laser (NMRL) and the combined (normal mode plus Q-switched) ruby laser on congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN) was evaluated, and the degree to which both laser treatment regimens remove ... -
The Effects of Nigella Sativa Seed Extract on Bone Healing in an Experimental Model
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2016)The purpose of this study was to histologically evaluate the effects on bone healing of nigella sativa seed extract applied on calvarial defects in an ovariectomized rat model. The study included 32 female rats weighing ... -
The Effects of Zoledronic Acid on Mandibular Fracture Healing in an Osteoporotic Model: A Stereological Study
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2013)The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of zoledronic acid (ZA) in the ovariectomized rat on mandibular fracture. Corpus osteotomies were performed on the mandible of ovariectomized rats. Miniplates were placed ... -
Elongated Styloid Process Associated With Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2011)This article presents a case with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) and an elongated styloid process. Basal cell carcinoma syndrome, also known as Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, is an autosomal dominant inherited syndrome ... -
