Background: To evaluate marginal microleakage of two composite resins - a methacrylate- and a silorane-based submitted to different polymerization techniques and thermocycling.
Material And Methods: Ninety-six class V cavities were prepared in sound human molars and restored under different polymerization and thermocycling regimens. The adhesive systems employed were Adper Scotchbond Multipurpose and Filtek P-90 for cavities restored with Z250 and P-90. The specimens were restored with Z250 or P-90, and divided into 3 subgroups with different polymerization techniques. The data were analyzed by Three way Analysis of Variance Test (<0.05).
Results: Micro infiltration lower scores were found in groups which were used silorane-based resin with significant statistical difference compared with the specimens restored with methacrylate-based resin, independently of polymerization type used and thermocycling (>0.001).
Conclusions: Silorane-based composite resins present lower marginal microleakage values when compared to methacrylate-based composites resins. Composite resin, microleakage, polymerization.

The sensitive, efficient, and simultaneous assay of creatinine and urea in different body fluid is crucial for the daily detection and treatment of chronic kidney disease. Here, we exploited a versatile composite surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-flower-like ZIF-67@Ag nanoparticles (NPs) based on simple in-situ growth and ion sputtering strategies. The plasmonic Ag NPs assembled on the three-dimensional anisotropic ZIF-67 matrix, facilitating numerous resonant electromagnetic "hotspots".

Objectives: Maxillary transverse deficiency is a common malocclusion frequently observed in orthodontic clinics. Miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) not only produces greater skeletal expansion but also offers advantages such as simple miniscrew implantation without flap elevation, enhanced patient comfort, and an expanded age range and indications for palatal expansion. However, the fixed connection between the expander and the miniscrews makes the expander difficult to remove, significantly hindering its clinical application.

Objective: To explore the impact of the terminal tip location of silicone midline catheter (MC, a type of intravenous catheter measuring 20-30 cm in length and inserted into upper arm veins using a modified Seldinger technique) in the subclavian vein group versus axillary vein group on catheter-related complications and indwelling duration.
Design: This is a randomised controlled study.
Setting: Twenty-seven tertiary hospitals in China.

The utilization of dissolvable microneedles (MNs) is a promising and cutting-edge approach to drug delivery for the treatment of psoriasis, an autoimmune skin disorder characterized by the appearance of red, scaly patches on the skin. This study presents the development of a dissolving MN patch made of polyvinylpyrrolidone for the purpose of delivering Clobetasol 17-Propionate through the skin. The MN patches were evaluated for their physical characteristics, including morphology, solubility, strength, and ability to penetrate the skin.
