Objective: To identify under what circumstances a university student should be allowed academic accommodation for ADHD. To frame an evidence-based policy for use in Brazil based on a worldwide experience.
Methods: We reviewed the literature to acquire information on what documents are commonly required by disability services before accommodation for ADHD is made (including malingering detection).
We report the stress-strain effect of a stretchable natural rubber (NR)-calcium phosphate composite on the surface wettability (SW) using an innovative approach coupling a uniaxial tensile micromachine, goniometer, and microscope. In situ contact angle measurements in real time were performed during mechanical tension. Our results show that SW is guided by the stress-strain relationship with two different characteristics, depending on the static or dynamic experiments.

Several topical treatments are available with the use of substances capable of stimulating lipolysis, such as caffeine. However, the effectiveness of topical therapy is related to the processes of release and permeation of the active in skin cells.

The biofilm accumulation over the composite resin restorations can contribute to the formation of secondary caries. In this way, antibacterial restorative composite resins are highly desired. Then, the purpose of this study was to modify a composite resins using Ag doped ZnO nanoparticles (NPs), evaluate the antibacterial and mechanical properties of the modified composite resin.
