(KOREAN ASSOC ORTHODONTISTS, 2009)
Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the shear bond strength (SBS) of brackets and microleakage of a tooth-adhesive-bracket complex bonded with a direct and an indirect bonding technique after thermocycling. ...
Stability in Dental Changes in RME and SARME: A 2-Year Follow-up
(E H ANGLE EDUCATION RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC, 2009)
Objective: To compare the effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME) on dentoalveolar structures following orthodontic treatment, as well as stability at 2-year ...
Expression of retinoblastoma and cyclin D1 in gastric carcinoma
(AEPRESS SRO, 2009)
Abnormal regulation of the cell cycle is a feature of many neoplasms. The role of cell cycle regulators in oncogenesis has been investigated in many human tumors. Alteration of the retinoblastoma (pRb) and cyclin D1 disrupt ...

AIM: To investigate in vitro effects of propofol, midazolam and dexmedetomidine, which are commonly used anaesthesic or sedatives, on spontaneous contractions of the ileum both in normal rats and those exposed to hyperdynamic ...
Probe of unparticles at the LHC in exclusive two lepton and two photon production via photon-photon fusion
(SPRINGER, 2009)
The exclusive production pp --> pXp is known to be one of the most clean channels at the LHC. We investigate the potential of processes pp ->- pl(-)l(+)p and pp ->- p gamma gamma p to probe scalar and tensor unparticles ...
Aortic distensibility and coronary artery bypass graft patency
(BMC, 2009)
Background: Aortic distensibility is an elasticity index of the aorta, and reflects aortic stiffness. Coronary artery disease has been found to be substantially associated with increased aortic stiffness. In this study we ...
