Validity of bond strength tests: A critical review: Part I

Journal of Conservative Dentistry, 2014
Adhesive systems are selected based on their bond strengths achieved while testing in laboratories. These bond strengths can predict the longevity of a restoration to some extent. There were several discrepancies in the reported bond strengths.

Effect of sandblasting on surface roughness of zirconia-based ceramics and shear bond strength of veneering porcelain.

Dental materials journal, 2014
This study aims to investigate the effect of sandblasting on the surface roughness of zirconia and the shear bond strength of the veneering porcelain. Pre-sintered zirconia plates were prepared and divided into four groups.

The Impact of In‐Hospital Disease Modifying Treatments on Mental and Physical Burden in Caregiver of Patients With MS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective People with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) may require a high level of daily assistance both for indoor and outdoor activities. Usually, relatives or friends provide daily support to MS patients who have lost personal autonomy. Several factors such as disability level and disease duration may affect the burden of care in caregivers of ...

Universal Proteomic Signature After Exercise‐Induced Muscle Injury in Muscular Dystrophies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Several neuromuscular disorders (NMDs) are characterized by progressive muscle damage and are marked by the elevation of circulating muscle proteins from activity‐related injury. Despite a diverse array of genetic drivers, many NMDs share similar patterns of exercise intolerance and higher concentrations of muscle injury proteins ...

Variational Monte Carlo and Configurational Interaction Studies of $C_{60}$ and its Fragments [PDF]

arXiv, 1996
The $C_{60}$ molecule and its fragments are studied using Configuration Interaction (CI) and Variational Monte Carlo (VMC) techniques, within the Hubbard model. Using benzene as a test case, we compare the results of the approximate calculations with exact calculations. The fragments of $C_{60}$ studied are pyracylene, fluoranthene and corannulene. The

Cortical Excitability Before and After Long‐Term Perampanel Treatment for Epilepsy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Antiseizure medications (ASMs), which may influence cortical excitability, are the mainstay of epilepsy treatment. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) helps evaluate cortical excitability. We assessed changes in TMS responses using serial TMS measurements in people treated with an adjunctive noncompetitive AMPA‐receptor ...
