Visible Occlusal Plaque Index Predicting Caries Lesion Activity
Journal of Dental Research, 2022 This study was undertaken to appraise the predictive validity of the Visible Occlusal Plaque Index (VOPI) in assessing occlusal caries lesion activity in adolescents. A total of 618 adolescents aged 10 to 15 y were examined at the beginning of the trial and 511 (82.7%) at the 2-y follow-up.

Local Maximal Stress Hypothesis and Computational Plaque Vulnerability Index for Atherosclerotic Plaque Assessment [PDF]
Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 2005 It is believed that atherosclerotic plaque rupture may be related to maximal stress conditions in the plaque. More careful examination of stress distributions in plaques reveals that it may be the local stress/strain behaviors at critical sites such as very thin plaque cap and locations with plaque cap weakness that are more closely related to plaque ...
