Implant‐Retained Obturator for an Edentulous Patient with a Hemimaxillectomy Defect Complicated with Microstomia

open access: yesCase Reports in Dentistry, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Patient. A 68‐year‐old man was operated on for squamous cell carcinoma (T3N3M0) of the maxilla creating the hemimaxillary surgical defect on right side. The remaining arch was completely edentulous. There was remarkable limitation in the oral opening with reduced perimeter of the oral cavity due to radiation and surgical scar contracture.

Intersection Complexity Quantification Considering Driver Behavior Characteristics and Subjective Cognition

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Intersections with high complexity often present an increased risk of accidents, thereby reducing traffic safety. Current models for measuring intersection complexity primarily focus on objective factors that influence intersection operation. However, they fail to consider the impact of intersection complexity on driver behavior or the feedback ...

Plasma Treatment Maintains Surface Energy of the Implant Surface and Enhances Osseointegration

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biomaterials, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The surface energy of the implant surface has an impact on osseointegration. In this study, 2 surfaces: nonwashed resorbable blasting media (NWRBM; control) and Ar‐based nonthermal plasma 30 days (Plasma 30 days; experimental), were investigated with a focus on the surface energy.

Effect of Seasonality and Ecological Factors on the Prevalence of the Four Malaria Parasite Species in Northern Mali

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Background. We performed 2 cross‐sectional studies in Ménaka in the Northeastern Mali across 9 sites in different ecological settings: 4 sites have permanent ponds, 4 without ponds, and one (City of Ménaka) has a semipermanent pond. We enrolled 1328 subjects in May 2004 (hot dry season) and 1422 in February 2005 (cold dry season) after the rainy season.
