Periodontitis and its association with left ventricular geometry and function: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the cross‐sectional association between periodontal status and left ventricular (LV) geometry and function, an early and prognostically relevant marker of cardiovascular disease. Methods Data were drawn from two population‐based cohorts in the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP): SHIP‐START‐2 (N = 2333) and ...

Static and free vibration of axially loaded functionally graded beams based on the first-order shear deformation theory [PDF]

, 2013
The first-order shear deformation beam theory for static and free vibration of axially loaded rectangular functionally graded beams is developed. In this theory, the improved transverse shear stiffness is derived from the in-plane stress and equilibrium ...

Novel nitro‐quinoline photoinitiators for composites: exploring the effects of hydroxyl and methacrylate substituents on the photopolymerization of dimethacrylate matrices

Polymer International, EarlyView.
New quinoline derivatives proved to be efficient photoinitiators for dental resin monomers under two different light‐curing units, yielding favorable conversion, color and fluorescence results in the presence of different co‐initiators, including an eco‐friendly alternative.
