Periodontitis affects a large part of the general population in both Europe and the US, is an important cause of teeth loss and is often associated with systemic disorders, such as diabetes mellitus, low birth weight and cardiovascular disease. An anabolic agent capable of inducing bone regeneration at the level of the oral cavity would be very useful in medical practice.Teriparatide, which con...

Active noise control has been used in a variety of applications where it is impractical to achieve significant levels of noise control using traditional passive noise control treatments, for example, at low frequencies. In recent years, a similar performance benefit has been gained through the use of acoustic metamaterials, which achieve levels of noise control performance that are not achievab...

Ambient air pollutants are one of the most harmful environmental stressors to human health. During the last decades, different ambient particulate and gaseous pollutants have been studied, and in numerous studies fine particles (< 2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter, PM2.5) and larger, inhalable particles (< 10 μm, PM10) have been associated with excess morbidity and mortality. Particle size and com...

Background: Artemisia diffusa contains a new type of sesquiterpene lactone with an endoperoxide group (Tehranolide). Objective: Due to the existing similarity between the structures of Tehranolide and Artemisinin, it was hypothesized that Tehranolide would have similar effects as Artemisinin. In this study, the immunotherapeutic effec-tiveness of Tehranolide was investigated by direct intra-tum...
