introdouction: cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) scanning is a technological innovation developed in recent years with potential use in oral surgery and many other dental procedures. the aim of this study is to determine the maxillary sinus mucosal thickening in the maxillary premolar-molar area using the cbct technique. materials and methods: in this retrospective study, a total of 105 case...

A novel series of hybrid molecules 4a-i and 5a-i were prepared by condensation of 4-(trimethylsilylethynyl)benzaldehyde 1 with substituted o-phenylenediamines. These in turn were reacted with 2-(azidomethoxy)ethyl acetate in a Cu alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) to generate the 1,2,3-triazole pharmacophore under microwave assistance. The newly synthesized compounds were examined for their in ...

Novel juglomycin derivatives with a C28 skeleton were isolated from the Streptomyces strains 815 and GW4184. Juglorescein (1a) and juglocombin A (2a) and B (3a) are C,C dimers of juglomycin C (10) with a five membered ring between the two monomeric moieties. In the juglochromans A – D (4a, 5a, 6a, 6c), two juglomycin C (10) units are connected by C,C and C,O bonds forming a central isochroman o...

Starting from N-substituted indole-3-carboxaldehydes (1a-g) a series of new 3-[(N-substituted indol-3-yl)methyleneamino]-6-amino-4-aryl-pyrano(2,3-c)pyrazole-5-carbonitriles (3a-g and 4a-g) have been synthesized via the acid catalyzed condensation reaction of 1a-g with 3-amino-5-pyrazolone, followed by the reaction with arylidene malononitriles. A series of new 3,6-diamino-4-(N-substituted indo...

A new family of ligand precursors, N-(1-(2,6-dimethylphenylimino)ethyl)-1,3-bis(aryl)imidazol-2-imine hydrochloride, wherein aryl = 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl (3a) and 2,6-diisopropylphenyl (3b), was prepared and structurally characterised. Deprotonation of the salts yields molecules with delocalised pi-electrons, leading to zwitterionic mesomeric structures. Titanium(IV) (4a,b) and palladium(II) (5...

The complexes [Ni(eta(3)-CH(2)CHCH(2))Br(kappa(1)P-PR(2)CH(2)CH=CH(2))] (R = Ph 1, (i)Pr2 ) and [Ni(eta(3)-CH(2)C(R')CH(2))(kappa(1)P-PR(2)CH(2)CH=CH(2))(2)][BAr'(4)] (R' = H, R = Ph 4a, R = (i)Pr 4b; R' = CH(3), R = Ph 5a, R = (i)Pr 5b; Ar' = 3,5-C(6)H(3)(CF(3))(2)) have been prepared and characterized. The X-ray crystal structures of 1, 2 and 5b have been determined. 4a-b and 5a-b are catalys...

Previous studies have succeeded in identifying the cognitive state corresponding to the perception of a set of depicted categories, such as tools, by analyzing the accompanying pattern of brain activity, measured with fMRI. The current research focused on identifying the cognitive state associated with a 4s viewing of an individual line drawing (1 of 10 familiar objects, 5 tools and 5 dwellings...

Ten new cembranolides, (-)-(1R*,4R*,10R*)-4-methoxycembra-2E,7E,11Z-trien-20,10-olide (1), (-)-(1S*,4R*,10R*)-1-hydroxy-4-methoxycembra-2E,7E,11Z-trien-20,10-olide (2), (-)-(1S*,4S*,10R*)-1,4-dihydroxycembra-2E,7E,11Z-trien-20,10-olide (3), (-)-(1S*,4S*,10R*)-1,4-dihydroxycembra-2E,7E,11Z-trien-20,10-olide (4), (+)-(10R*)-cembra-1E,3E,7E,11Z,16-pentaen-20,10-olide (5), (+)-(10R*)-cembra-1Z,3Z,7...

In the paper we consider some consequences of the Nonsymmetric Kaluza–Klein (Jordan–Thiry) Theory. We calculate primordial fluctuation spectrum functions, spectral indices, and first derivatives of spectral indices. In this paper we develop some ideas from Ref. [1]. We will refer to Ref. [1] in all the details of our considerations. Let us consider Eq. (3.313) from Ref. [1]. Φ(t) = (5 + 3a) √ 5...

The present study examined 7- to 11-month-old infants' anticipatory and reactive reaching for temporarily occluded objects. Infants were presented with laterally approaching objects that moved at different velocities (10, 20, and 40 cm/s) in different occlusion situations (no-, 20 cm-, and 40 cm-occlusion), resulting in occlusion durations ranging between 0 and 4s. Results show that except for ...
