Predictive value of molar bite force on Class II functional appliance treatment outcomes [PDF]
, 2017 Sagittal intermaxillary changes brought about by functional appliances show large inter-individual variation. One factor that may in part explain these differences is the masticatory musculature and its functional capacity. The aims of this study were to

LIN28B Promotes Cancer Cell Dissemination and Angiogenesis
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.Children diagnosed with high‐risk neuroblastoma have a 5‐year event‐free survival rate of less than 50% and poor outcomes after recurrence. Deregulation of the LIN28B oncogene can be addressed in these patients. Upregulation of LIN28B is shown to support the metastatic cascade.

A Different Perspective on the Solid Lubrication Performance of Black Phosphorous: Friend or Foe?
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Researchers investigate black phosphorous (BP) as a standalone solid lubricant coating through ball‐on‐disc linear‐reciprocating sliding experiments in dry conditions. Testing on different metals shows BP doesn't universally reduce friction and wear. However, it achieves 33% friction reduction on rougher iron surfaces and 23% wear reduction on aluminum.

Replication of Known Dental Characteristics in Porcine Skin: Emerging Technologies for the Imaging Specialist [PDF]
, 2014 This study demonstrates that it is sometimes possible to replicate patterns of human teeth in pig skin and determine scientifically that a given injury pattern (bite mark) correlates with the dentitions of a very small proportion of a population dataset,

Bite force in temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) and healthy complete denture wearers [PDF]
, 2008 The signs and symptoms of temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) may contribute to reduce bite force and muscular activity. The aims of this study were to compare bite force in complete denture wearers with TMD (TMD group) and without TMD (healthy group ...

Linking Heat Treatment to Plastic Deformation in Pearlitic Steels Through Mesoscale Modeling
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Surface wear on rail and wheel steels results from surface deformation during use. This research uses mathematical models to forecast the plastic behavior of pearlitic steels, connected to the microstructure formed during heat treatment. While the cooling rate impacts the steels’ strength, the size of prior austenite grains and blocks does not ...

Dynamic Functional ForceMeasurements on an Anterior Bite Plane during theNight [PDF]
, 2018 . : Background: : Anterior bite planes are used in removable and fixed appliance treatment. In removable appliance treatment the question arising is whether the delivered forces can achieve active intrusion in terms of their amplitude and duration.
