In situ evaluation of the bleaching efficacy of experimental hydrogen peroxide hydrogel with MnO‐doped Biosilicate activated by violet LED light

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Hydrogen peroxide (HP) at 35% is effective for dental bleaching but may reduce enamel mineral content and induce structural changes. This study developed a bleaching‐hydrogel containing 6%HP and manganese‐oxide–doped Biosilicate (MnO_BioS), activated by violet LED, under in situ conditions.

Post‐curing effects on mechanical properties staining resistance of a 3D‐printed resin versus a direct composite for definitive restorations

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the mechanical performance and staining resistance of a three‐dimensional (3D)‐printed resin (VarseoSmile Crown Plus) subjected to different post‐curing times (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 min), compared with a conventional nanofilled resin composite (Filtek Z350XT).

Breaking with traditions: Who are the women with attitudes, norms and behaviors that support ending female genital mutilation in Burkina Faso?

PLOS Global Public Health
Studies examining norms and behaviors around female genital mutilation (FGM) are needed to accelerate progress towards the elimination of this harmful practice. This study uses nationally representative data from a pilot FGM module among women ages 15-49

Elastic-plastic analysis of functionally graded bars under torsional loading

, 2017
In this paper a new integral equation solution to the elastic-plastic problem of functionally graded bars under torsional loading is presented. The formulation is general in the sense that it can be applied to an arbitrary cross-section made of any type ...

Effect of in‐office bleaching on the color stability of bulk‐fill resin composites immersed in staining beverages

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the impact of in‐office bleaching on color stability of bulk‐fill composites submitted to staining. Bulk‐fill (Aura, Opus, and Filtek One) and nanofilled (Filtek Z350) composite specimens were submitted to the following: control (CT); bleaching and immersion in distilled water (BL); and bleaching with daily 15‐min ...

A parametric study on the buckling of functionally graded material plates with internal discontinuities using the partition of unity method

, 2013
In this paper, the effect of local defects, viz., cracks and cutouts on the buckling behaviour of functionally graded material plates subjected to mechanical and thermal load is numerically studied.

Modelling of FGM plate

Journal of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2018
The paper presents formulation of the problem of layered plates composed of two various isotropic materials. We assume that the first material M1 is characterized by the following parameters: Young’s modulus E1 and Poisson’s ratio 1, whereas the second one by E2 and 2, respectively.

Superior Clinical and Economic Value of IL‐23 Inhibitors Versus Adalimumab Biosimilars in Plaque Psoriasis

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
A bicentric retrospective real‐world study (N = 616) comparing IL‐23 inhibitors (guselkumab, risankizumab, tildrakizumab) with adalimumab biosimilars in moderate‐to‐severe plaque psoriasis. It presents PASI90 response at Weeks 16 and 52, NNT, and cost‐effectiveness (incremental cost per responder, CE plane, CEAC/CEAF).

A semi-analytical three-dimensional free vibration analysis of functionally graded curved panels integrated with piezoelectric layers

Science and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2014
Free vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) curved panels integrated with piezoelectric layers under various boundary conditions is studied. A panel with two opposite edges is simply supported, and arbitrary boundary conditions at the other edges
