Fracture Toughness of Nanohybrid and Hybrid Composites Stored Wet and Dry up to 60 Days

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Patients' demand for tooth-colored restoratives in the posterior region is increasing. Clinicians use universal nanohybrid resin composites for both anterior and posterior regions. There are few published reports comparing fracture toughness of nonohybrids and that of hybrid composite stored wet and dry. OBJECTIVES To investigate the fracture toughness of three nanohybrid...

Methodology for estimation of days dry effects.

The primary objective of this research was to determine if, with appropriate methodology, unbiased estimates of days dry (DD) effects on subsequent lactation milk yield can be obtained from field data, particularly when DD is correlated with cow effects. Another objective was to ascertain relevant sampling properties of designed trials for estimation of DD effects. Simulated records were used t...

Skeletal muscle predicts ventilator-free days, ICU-free days, and mortality in elderly ICU patients

INTRODUCTION As the population ages, the number of injured elderly is increasing. We sought to determine if low skeletal muscle mass adversely affected outcome in elderly patients following trauma. METHODS Patients ≥ 65 years of age with an admission abdominal computed tomography scan and requiring intensive care unit (ICU) stay at a Level I trauma center in 2009-2010 were reviewed. Muscle cr...
