Clinical Implant Dentistry and Related Research, Volume 25, Issue 3, Page 540-548, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Introduction The study evaluates the levels of matrix metalloprotease‐8 (MMP‐8), and Cathepsin‐K (CatK) in peri‐implant crevicular fluid (PICF) among patients with immediate loaded (IL) and delayed‐loaded (DL) implants at different time points to know the inflammation and osteogenic status. Methods The study population consisted of two groups (

AN EARLY 3D‐MAP OF A TERRITORY? THE BRONZE AGE CARVED SLAB FROM SAINT‐BÉLEC, LEUHAN (BRITTANY, FRANCE)

Oxford Journal of Archaeology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 367-390, November 2021., 2021
Summary While early maps are known from all over the world, the key questions always involve: what exactly do they show? And what spatial extent do they cover? In this context, we recently used 3D‐modelling to re‐examine a carved stone slab datable to the Early Bronze Age (c.2150–1600 BC) that was found at Saint‐Bélec in Brittany.
