Three-Dimensional Magneto-Optical Trapping of Barium Monofluoride.

As a heavy molecule, barium monofluoride (BaF) presents itself as a promising candidate for measuring permanent electric dipole moment. Here we report the realization of three-dimensional magneto-optical trapping (MOT) of BaF molecules. Through the repumping of all the vibrational states up to v=3, and rotational states up to N=3, we effectively close the transition to a leakage level lower than 10^{-5}.

The application value of contrast-enhanced computed tomography in cervical lymph node metastasis of oral carcinomas: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Oral carcinomas is a concerning condition around the world. Globally, it is the 11th most common form of cancer. Over 90% of oral carcinomas are squamous cell carcinomas.

Double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial of the effects of diosmectite and basic fibroblast growth factor paste on the treatment of minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis.

Objective: This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of topical application of diosmectite (DS) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) paste in the treatment of minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis.

Study Design: Four pastes, containing bFGF and DS, DS alone, bFGF alone, and vehicle only, were consecutively applied 4 times per day for 5 days. Pain levels and the amount of ulcer amelioration were evaluated.

Efficacy of salvianolic acid B combined with triamcinolone acetonide in the treatment of oral submucous fibrosis.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of triamcinolone acetonide (TA) and salvianolic acid B (SA-B) intralesional combined injection in the treatment of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF).

Material And Methods: A randomized clinical trial was performed. TA, SA-B, and TA combined with SA-B were consecutively applied intralesionally weekly for 20 weeks.

Clinical evaluation of allicin oral adhesive tablets in the treatment of recurrent aphthous ulceration.

Objective: We investigated the effectiveness and safety of topical application of 5 mg allicin adhesive tablets in the treatment of minor recurrent aphthous ulcerations (MiRAU).

Material And Methods: A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, clinical trial was performed. Tablets containing 5 mg allicin or vehicle only were consecutively applied 4 times per day for 5 days.

Effect of intermittent administration of adiponectin on bone regeneration following mandibular osteodistraction in rabbits.

Adiponectin, a protein hormone produced and secreted exclusively by adipocytes, was reported to increase bone mass and stimulate angiogenesis. However, the effect of adiponectin on bone regeneration following distraction osteogenesis has not yet been reported. In this study, rapid unilateral mandibular osteodistraction (distraction rate = 2 mm/day) was applied in 24 New Zealand white rabbits.
