Objective: To evaluate clinical effect of composite inlays in the defective molars.

Methods: A total of 200 defective molars from 163 patients were divided into two groups, including 100 molars of each. One group was restored with the direct composite inlays and another group with the traditional composite fillings. All the restorations were evaluated in oral cavity after 6-month and 5-year filling or insertion with United States public health service criterions. The data were analyzed using SPSS 11.0 software with the chi-square test. The significance level was set at 5%.

Results: In clinical service for 6 months, the successful rate of composite inlays was 91.8% (90/98) and the corresponding figure for traditional composite fillings was 91.8% (89/97), but there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05). In clinical service for 5 years, the successful rate of composite inlay was 87.9% (80/91), the corresponding figure for the traditional composite fillings being 67.4% (60/89) and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).

Conclusions: In clinical, the defective molars can be well restored with the direct composite inlays. Especially in the long-term clinical service, the composite inlays show significant superiority over the traditional composite fillings.

Unlocking Advanced Architectures of Single-Crystal Metal-Organic Frameworks.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

January 2025

Fudan University - Handan Campus: Fudan University, Department of Chemistry, 2205 Songhu Road, Laboratory of Advanced Materials, 200438, Shanghai, CHINA.

The synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with diverse geometries has captivated considerable interest due to their manifestation of novel and extraordinary properties. While much progress has been made in shaping regular polyhedral single-crystal MOFs, the creation of more complex, topologically intricate nanostructures remains a largely unexplored frontier. Here, we present a refined site-specific anisotropic assembly and etching co-mediation approach to fabricate a series of hierarchical MOF nanohybrids and single-crystal MOFs.

Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University, 563000 China; The Collaborative Innovation Center of Tissue, Damage Repair and Regeneration Medicine of Zunyi Medical University, 563000 China. Electronic address:

Background: Complex craniofacial trauma is defined as those traumatic injuries that are not responding to initial treatment and may involve chronic infection, tissue exposure, and soft tissue contusions. Typical reconstruction using a Y-shaped microvascular venous anastomotic free flap is labor intensive. Although free flap grafts have been used in many applications, their use for combined microvascular anastomotic therapy remains an unexplored but attractive possibility.

Assessing correlation between different temporary restorative materials for microleakage following endodontic treatment: an in-vitro study.

BMC Oral Health

December 2024

Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, Saveetha Dental College and Hospitals, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences, Saveetha University, Chennai, 600077, Tamil Nadu, India.

Background: Coronal microleakage, the passage of fluids and bacteria through the interface between the temporary restoration and the tooth structure, can potentially result in endodontic treatment failure.

Purpose: This study evaluated and compared the sealing efficacy of various temporary restorative materials utilized during endodontic procedures.

Methods: All seventy premolar teeth were extracted, measured, and restored, except for the negative control group, where the teeth were left whole.

Pt-modified hollow tube-like polyaniline-based NH sensor.

J Hazard Mater

November 2024

College of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Resource Utilization, Northeast Forestry University, Harbin 150040, China. Electronic address:

Polyaniline (PANI) has significant applications in room-temperature NH detection due to its unique and reversible doping-dedoping chemical state, stable electrical conductivity and easy and convenient synthesis process. However, pristine PANI still suffers from poor performance in terms of sensitivity, response speed and detection limit. To address issues of low sensitivity and high detection limit, a platinum (Pt)-modified hollow PANI (Pt-PANI) sensor was designed.
