The aim of this study was to measure the rise in temperature during: (i) a single cycle of a curing light unit, (ii) the polymerization of a layer of light-cured lining material, and (iii) the polymerization of a light-cured posterior composite material, and also during combinations of these individual procedures. Experimental work was undertaken in vitro and measurements were made using a thermocouple placed centrally in an insulated PTFE well. Large temperature rises occurred with the use of the curing light alone. The lining material itself did not contribute significantly to the rise in temperature during curing, nor did it provide thermal insulation from the output temperature emitted by the light guide. The presence of a layer of posterior composite reduced the temperature transmitted from the light but the residual temperature rise transmitted was still of such a magnitude as to cause concern regarding possible thermal injury to the pulp.

Titanium dioxide nanotube arrays (TNTs) generated in situ on the surface of dental implants have been shown to enhance bone integration for load-bearing support while managing load distribution and energy dissipation to prevent bone resorption from overload. However, their inadequate stability limits the clinical use of conventional TNTs. This study introduces an innovative approach to improve the mechanical stability of TNTs while maintaining their bone-integration efficiency.

: Acute gastric injury is a prevalent gastrointestinal disorder characterized by inflammation and damage to the stomach lining. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential effects of broccoli stem extract (BSE) against acute gastritis in a rat model. : The antioxidant properties of BSE were evaluated through DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity assays and total polyphenol content analysis.

Despite the vital importance of wetlands globally, these habitats have increasingly received anthropogenic materials, such as plastics, which can impact the wildlife these habitats support. Despite commonly found in the nests of Eurasian spoonbill (Platalea leucorodia), the presence of such materials has never been quantified. Here, we monitored the occurrence of anthropogenic nesting materials (ANM) in spoonbill nests in the Camargue wetland in Southern France during two breeding seasons (2021-2022).

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the use of glass sand as a partial or full replacement for machine-made sand in ultrahigh performance shotcrete (UHPS) while adding steel fibers for enhanced properties.
- The findings showed that higher steel fiber contents do not compromise compressive strength, and optimal mechanical properties are achieved when using 2% steel fibers along with 100% glass sand.
- Although glass sand negatively impacts electrical properties, it does not cause harmful reactions, making the material suitable for applications like tunnel linings.
