mandibular defects may result from many conditions such as trauma, inflammatory diseases and tumors. there are rare cases reported in the literature that have demonstrated spontaneous bone regeneration after resection of the mandible. several factors such as age, preservation of the periosteum and genetics seem to influence spontaneous bone regeneration capacity in individuals. evaluation of th...

Studies on the mechanism of action of nerve growth factor (NGF) were carried out with PC12 rat pheochromocytoma cells. PC12 cells are uniquely useful for such studies because they respond to, but (unlike normal neurons) do not require, NGF and may undergo either generation or regeneration of neurites in response to NGF. Regeneration is defined here as NGF-dependent regrowth of neurites within 2...

11 Wildfires have always been a part of the history of Mediterranean forests. However, forest 12 regeneration after a wildfire is not certain. It depends on many factors, some of which may be 13 influenced by land management activities. Failure of regeneration will cause a regime shift in the 14 ecosystem, reducing the provision of ecosystem services and ultimately leading to desertification. 1...

Tissue regeneration is a complex process that involves a mosaic of molecules that vary spatially and temporally. Insights into the chemical signaling underlying this process can be achieved with a multiplex and untargeted chemical imaging method such as mass spectrometry imaging (MSI), which can enablede novostudies of nervous system regeneration. A combination of MSI and multivariate statistic...

OBJECTIVES Measurement of individuals' valuation of dental treatments is important in the evaluation of new technologies. In this paper the value of dentin regeneration, a new treatment for teeth with reversible pulpitis, is measured based on what individuals say they would be willing to pay to receive the treatment. METHODS A total of 611 randomly selected dentate adults answered willingness...

This article developed a 6120-type diesel particulate filter pulse clean and regeneration control system with a high efficiency, simple reliable use. And it has determined the spray nozzle diameter, the injection distance, the injection pressure, the pulse width, the injection time of five factor optimal fit experiment parameter. This control system can flow the type honeycomb ceramics filter t...

Six patients had penetrating keratoplasty following thermokeratoplasty (TKP) at different time intervals. The standard temperature used was between 90 degree and 95 degree C. with constant saline irrigation. The corneal buttons were studied by light and electron microscopy. Immediate changes observed included epithelial necrosis, marked degneration of keratocytes, and endothelial edema. After 2...

At a time of public sector retrenchment in urban regeneration it has become increasingly important to understand how planners can help create better places. Recent studies suggest that planners must behave as market actors by deploying planning tools strategically to influence market behaviour. In this context, this paper examines how local planning authorities use a variety of policy instrumen...

Unlike heart valves or blood vessels, heart muscle has no replacement alternatives. The most challenging goal in the field of cardiovascular tissue engineering is the creation/ regeneration of an engineered heart muscle. Recent advances in methods of stem cell isolation, culture in bioreactors, and the synthesis of bioactive materials promise to create engineered cardiac tissue ex vivo. At the ...

without doubt is one important aspects of sustainable forest management the continuing forest regeneration. identify and determine is effective dispersal and distribution pattern of regeneration patches in various types of forest and its evolution, in maintaining biodiversity in natural ecosystems. purpose was chosen of gorazbon district kheyrod forest for study, all patches regeneration were l...
