"CAD-on" Interfaces - Fracture Mechanics Characterization.

Purpose: To apply fracture mechanics methodology to determine the interfacial fracture toughness of the interfaces present in "CAD-on" crowns consisting of CAD/CAM milled lithium disilicate veneers glass-fused to CAD/CAM milled yttrium oxide stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal framework.

Materials And Methods: The notchless triangular prism specimen fracture toughness test was used to determine interfacial fracture toughness. Four groups, each consisting of (6 × 6 × 6 × 12) mm prisms (n = 22), were produced.

Treatment of enemy wounded: evidence from the No. 7 Canadian Stationary Hospital (Dalhousie University).

Dalhousie University, with the help of the other Maritime universities formed and sent a hospital to Europe during the First World War (WWI). They served from January 1916 to April 1919. There is no comprehensive account of the treatment of German wounded by Canadian Medical Services in WWI; however, there is direct photographic and written evidence from the No.

Sleep deficits in the High Arctic summer in relation to light exposure and behaviour: use of melatonin as a countermeasure.

Background: There are conflicting reports regarding seasonal sleep difficulties in polar regions. Herein we report differences in actigraphic sleep measures between two summer trials (collected at Canadian Forces Station Alert, 82.5°N, in 2012 and 2014) and evaluate exogenous melatonin for preventing/treating circadian phase delay due to nocturnal light exposure.

Summary of recommendations on malaria issues in special hosts.

Background: On behalf of the Public Health Agency of Canada, the Committee to Advise on Tropical Medicine and Travel (CATMAT) developed the for Canadian health care providers who are preparing patients for travel to malaria-endemic areas and treating travellers who have returned ill.

Objective: To provide guidelines on malaria issues related to special hosts.

Methods: CATMAT reviewed all major sources of information on malaria prevention, as well as recent research and national and international epidemiological data, to tailor guidelines to the Canadian context.

Summary of recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of malaria by the Committee to Advise on Tropical Medicine and Travel (CATMAT).

Background: On behalf of the Public Health Agency of Canada, the Committee to Advise on Tropical Medicine and Travel (CATMAT) developed the for Canadian health care providers who are preparing patients for travel to malaria-endemic areas and treating travellers who have returned ill. These recommendations aim to achieve appropriate diagnosis and management of malaria, a disease that is still uncommon in Canada.

Objective: To provide recommendations on the appropriate diagnosis and treatment of malaria.
