An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

Effect of adhesives and mechanical surface treatments on the hard relining of CAD‐CAM denture bases

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of mechanical roughening, adhesive applications, and aging on the bonding between CAD‐CAM denture base materials with distinct chemical contents and hard relining material. Materials and Methods A total of 300 denture base specimens were produced by additive, subtractive, and ...
