Long-Term Success of Teeth Undergoing Intentional Replantation: A Report of Two Cases.

Intentional replantation has been shown to be a viable treatment option for failed endodontic cases with long-term success rates.

Design of a new palladium(ii) halide complex as a bio-active material: synthesis, physico-chemical studies, DFT-computations and evaluation of anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-gastric damage activities.

Colorless single crystals of the zero-dimensional hybrid compound, (CHN)[PdCl]·2HO were acquired through the slow evaporation technique. The crystal structure was explored using SC-XRD, which demonstrates that the material crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group 1̄ of the triclinic system. The density functional theory method at the B3LYP/Lan2mb basis set level was employed to establish the optimized geometry and vibrational frequencies of the title compound.

Aim: To identify the predictive factors for the publication of theses defended at the Faculty of Medicine of Sousse (FMSO) in Tunisia.

Methods: The development of the dissertation was studied following the interrogation of three databases "Medline", "Scopus" and "article @INIST" as well as "Scholar Google". The drafting quality of the thesis summary was assessed using a grid of 20 iso-weighted items.

Biopreservative Effect of the Tunisian Halophyte Flavonoid Fraction, Used Alone and in Combination with Linalool in Stored Minced Beef Meat.

In the present study, () flavonoid extract (FV) was characterized by HPLC analyses and five compounds were detected. Further, to describe the chemical content of the matrix, GC-MS analyses after silylation were performed; the obtained results showed the presence of a large number of components belonging to several chemical classes, mostly sugar alcohols, sugars, fatty acids, and terpenes. Firstly, the antibacterial activities of this fraction and linalool (Lin) were evaluated against eight foodborne pathogenic strains with MIC values between 2.

A New Approach in Meat Bio-Preservation through the Incorporation of a Heteropolysaccharide Isolated from L.

In this study, a new heteropolysaccharide extracted from Lobularia maritima (L.) Desv. (LmPS), a halophyte harvested in Tunisia, was evaluated as an antioxidant and antibacterial additive in the bio-preservation of raw minced meat.

Occurrence and antibiotic resistance of Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolated from the Tunisian coastal seawater.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a gram-negative bacterium ubiquitous in seawater or estuarine water throughout the world. It is a major cause of seafood gastroenteritis complications. In this study, the presence of V.

Evaluation of Halophyte Biopotential as an Unused Natural Resource: The Case of .

Halophytes are plant species widely distributed in saline habitats, such as beaches, postindustrial wastelands, irrigated lands, salt flats, and others. Excessive salt level, known to limit plant growth, is not harmful to halophytes, which have developed a variety of defense mechanisms allowing them to colonize harsh environments. Plants under stress are known to respond with several morpho-anatomical adaptations, but also to enhance the production of secondary metabolites to better cope with difficult conditions.

Lateral luxation: Is root resorption an unavoidable complication?

Lateral luxation is defined as a traumatic displacement of a tooth in any direction other than axially. A laterally luxated tooth is often immobile because of its bony lock. It produces a high metallic sound during percussion.

Identification of transmission chains and clusters associated with COVID-19 in Tunisia.

Background: The aim of this study was to characterize the transmission chains and clusters of COVID-19 infection in Tunisia.

Methods: All cases were confirmed by Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction of a nasopharyngeal specimen. Contact tracing is undertaken for all confirmed cases in order to identify close contacts that will be systematically screened and quarantined.

Molecular characterization of multidrug resistant E. coli associated to urinary tract infection in Taif, Saudi Arabia.

Escherichia coli account approximately to 85% of the Urinary tract infection. UTI affect the different parts of the urinary tract and is considered as a common bacterial infection. The infection is caused as a consequence of the urinary tract bacterial invasion.

Coastal Surveillance and Water Quality monitoring in the Rejiche Sea-Tunisia.

The aim of this study is to determine physiochemical and bacteriological properties of seawater and sediments from the coast of Tunisia during six successive months. The conductivity was measured using previously calibrated Hach Conductivity meter. Total suspended solid was determined using Whatman GF/C glass fiber filter (Sigma Aldrich), and the turbidity was assessed using a spectrophotometer (UV/Vis).

Predictors of Quality of Life in Stroke Survivors: A 1-year Follow-Up Study of a Tunisian Sample.

Background: Stroke survivors often have impaired quality of live (QOL). There is very little information about the determining factors of QOL of stroke survivors in developing countries managed in public health structures with limited access to state of the art treatments.

Objective: To identify the main determinants of QOL in Tunisian stroke survivors.

Strain-based work-to-family conflict as a predictor of lumbar and cervical pain in Tunisian nursing staff.

This study aimed to examine the association of the different dimensions and forms of work-family conflict with the occurrence of neck and lower back pain (LBP) in Tunisian nurses. We conducted a cross-sectional study on nurses assigned to a district hospital in Tunisia. The work-family interface was assessed with the work-family conflict scale of Carlson et al.

A microscopic and macroscopic investigation of the adsorption of N719 dye on ZnO nanopowders (ZNP) and ZnO nanorods (ZNR) for dye sensitized solar cells using statistical physics treatment and DFT simulation.

In this paper, three adsorption isotherms of N719 dye on two different adsorbents, ZnO nanopowder and ZnO nanorods, at three different thicknesses have been fitted using a monolayer model with three types of receptor sites treated by statistical physics. The model involved parameters are: three coefficients ( , and ) indicating the numbers of adsorbed dye molecules per site, three parameters ( , and ) indicating the receptor site densities and three adsorption energies ((- ), (- ) and (- )). The evolution of these parameters in relation with thickness of ZnO was discussed.

Estrogenic hazards of short chain phthalates and bisphenols found in cosmetic products.

For several years, environmental exogenous agents, called endocrine disruptors, are suspected to interfere with the essential functions of reproduction and development in many living organisms. In this study, endocrine disruptors including five phthalates and two bisphenols contents in finished products were assayed and their estrogenic activity were measured by using the Yeast Estrogen Screen system with respect to human and trout estrogen receptors hERα and rtER. Independently of the estrogen receptor, only short-chain phthalates (DBP and BBP) and the two bisphenols exhibited an estrogenic activity.
