Development a risk assessment method for dimensional stone quarries.

Over the last 20 years, the global production of dimension stones has grown rapidly. Today, seven countries-China, India, Turkey, Iran, Italy, Brazil, and Spain-account for around two-thirds of the world's output of dimension stones. Each one has annual production levels of nine to over twenty-two million tons.

Evaluation of cytotoxicity impacts of combined methylene blue-mediated photodynamic therapy and intracanal antibiotic medicaments on dental stem cells.

Root canal therapy is a predominant method for treatment of dental pulp and periapical diseases. Conventional methods such as mechanical instrumentations, chemical irrigation and intracanal medicaments pose a huge limitation to root canal disinfection as they kill bacteria and dental stem cells simultaneously. Therefore, much attention has been focused on finding more efficacious antibacterial methods that has no or negligible cytotoxicity for dental stem cells.

Evaluation of Biological Activity of Different Wavelengths of Low-Level Laser Therapy on the Cancer Prostate Cell Line Compared With Cisplatin.

Cancer is one of the most important problems in the world. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been emerged as a new approach, having both stimulation and inhibition effects on cellular function. The goal of this study was to analyze and compare the different concentrations of cisplatin and wavelengths of laser therapy on the LnCap cell lines.

The effect of cisplatin-low-level laser therapy on cell viability and death of LNCaP prostate cancer cell line.

Prostate cancer, as a common male cancer, is a serious threat to men's health. In spite of extreme developments for increasing survival rate, there are still limitations about common treatment options such as surgical procedures, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. We hypothesized that combination of two treatments would bring better clinical outcomes.
