This study investigated the effect of adding bioactive glass 45S5 (BG) of different particle sizes to dental composite on resin polymerization and shrinkage stress formation. Commercial flowable composite was mixed with either 15 wt% BG fillers (nanometric, micrometric, or hybrid BG) or inert barium glass. Real-time linear polymerization shrinkage and shrinkage stress were recorded, and the degree of conversion was measured using FTIR spectroscopy. The commercial (unmodified) composite developed significantly higher linear shrinkage and shrinkage stress than the groups with 15 wt% added inert or BG fillers. After adding inert barium glass, the composite showed significantly higher linear shrinkage than when micrometric BG was added. The addition of bioactive or inert glass fillers did not affect the degree of conversion. Shrinkage stress can be reduced by adding inert or bioactive fillers (nano- and/or microparticulate BG) without affecting monomer conversion.

Purpose: Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IIRI) occurs as a result of temporary blood flow interruption, leading to tissue damage upon reperfusion. Oxidative stress plays a critical role in this process, instigating inflammation and cell death. Identifying and characterizing genes associated with the oxidative stress response can offer valuable insights into potential therapeutic targets for managing IIRI.

The diversion tunnel is frequently subjected to cyclic dynamic loads during blasting and mechanical excavation. To explore the theory and mechanism of cyclic dynamic mechanical damage for granite in a diversion tunnel under cyclic loading-unloading, the incremental cyclic loading-unloading test and numerical simulation were conducted on granite samples from the diversion tunnel. According to the mechanical and deformation characteristics of rock samples in the process of cyclic loading-unloading, the stress-strain normalization theory evolution model based on viscoelastoplasticity was established, and the cyclic dynamic damage evolution mechanism of rock samples was revealed.

Cytokinins are plant hormones that regulate cell growth and differentiation. In particular, zeatin (ZTN) delays cellular senescence of human fibroblasts and keratinocytes and exhibits anticancer activity. Chemotherapy-induced anemia is a major side effect of anticancer therapy secondary to premature senescence of red blood cells (RBCs).

Background: Despite increasing fatal stimulant poisoning in the United States, little is understood about the mechanism of death. The psychological autopsy (PA) has long been used to distinguish the manner of death in equivocal cases, including opioid overdose, but has not been used to explicitly explore stimulant mortality.

Objective: We aimed to develop and implement a large PA study to identify antecedents of fatal stimulant poisoning, seeking to maximize data gathering and ethical interactions during the collateral interviews.
