Objective: To study the stress distribution under dynamic loading in the presence or absence of an abutment buffer layer by using three-dimensional finite element analysis.

Methods: A three-dimensional solid geometric model of an implant in a human mandible was established on the basis of CT scan data. A buffer-free abutment prosthesis and a buffer-abutment abutment prosthesis were installed above the implant.

Purpose: Chemotherapy is the current standard treatment for Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Combination therapy is emerging as an important strategy for a better long-term prognosis with decreased side effects, maximized therapeutic effect. The aim of this study is to deliver vincristine (VCR) and quercetin (QU) with synergistic drug ratios through lipid-polymeric nanocarriers (LPNs) for the lymphoma combination chemotherapy METHODS: In this present study, we constructed VCR and QU dual-loaded LPNs (VCR/QU LPNs) and investigated their antitumor efficacy in vitro cell culture models and a tumor xenograft mouse model.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to analyze how free calcium ions (Ca2+) are distributed in osteoclast-like cells grown on glass.
  • Researchers used laser scanning confocal microscopy and a fluorescent probe to visualize and measure free Ca2+ levels within the cells.
  • Results showed that free Ca2+ concentration was higher in the center of the cells compared to the edges, indicating that the uneven distribution of Ca2+ could play a role in how these cells regulate their functions.

This study was directed at analyzing the stress distribution of the implant in three different models whose cusp inclinations are 45, 35, 25 degrees respectively; the aim was to improve the success rate of implant rehabilitation. The method of is 3-dimensional finite element analysis (3D-FEA) was adopted. A volunteer's mandible was scanned using helix computer tomography and then we got the data of the mandible's margin in digital instrument.

On the basis of the well-established principles and techniques about flow chamber, we have designed and made a kind of parallel plate system to apply steady fluid shear stress to osteoclast-like cells etc. in vitro. Biocompatible rubber and metal clamping apparatus made of aluminium alloy are used to seal the flow chamber without changing its even height designed beforehand.
