In this approach, the signal is initially represented as a matrix. Then using singu...

Shiramizu K; Lovric V; Leung AMD; +Walsh WR Surgical & Orthopaedic Research Laboratories, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia [email protected] INTRODUCTION Deep infection after total joint replacement is a severe complication, and the use of antibiotic-loaded bone cement as a joint spacer is an established and efficient treatment method to treat infected arthroplasties. When pre...

This decreases use energy resources reduces CO2 emissions in production. issue partial Portland substitution finely ground production market-oriented types type CEM II is solved on plant PJSC "Ivano-Frankivsk Cement". indexes physical-mechanical te...

Study Design A biomechanical and radiographic study using vertebral analogues. Objectives Kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty are widely used techniques to alleviate pain in fractures secondary to osteoporosis. However, cement leakage toward vital structures like the spinal cord can be a major source of morbidity and even mortality. We define safe cement injection as the volume of the cement injecte...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a new glass polyphosphonate cement (Diamond) for orthodontic banding. Thirty-one subjects underwent in vivo testing to compare the failure rate of bands cemented using the test cement and bands cemented using a conventional glass polyalkenoate cement (Ketac-Cem) over a 6-month period at the beginning of active appliance therapy. In a...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Adequate depth of cement penetration and cement mantle thickness is important for the durability of cemented cups. A flanged cup, as opposed to unflanged, has been suggested to give a more uniform cement mantle and superior cement pressurization, thus improving the depth of cement penetration. This hypothesis was tested experimentally. MATERIALS AND METHODS The same cup...

BACKGROUND Environmental asbestos pollution can cause malignant mesothelioma, but few studies have involved dose-response analyses with detailed information on occupational, domestic, and environmental exposures. OBJECTIVES In the present study, we examined the spatial variation of mesothelioma risk in an area with high levels of asbestos pollution from an industrial plant, adjusting for occu...

BACKGROUND The present study aimed to evaluate the operators' mental workload (MW) of cement, city traffic control and power plant control centers using subjective and objective measures during system vital parameters monitoring. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted from June 2014 to February 2015 at the cement, city traffic control and power plant control centers. Electrocardiogr...

Growth hormone was incorporated into Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) with a view to improving the quality of the bone-cement interface. Growth hormone was released from the PMMA and delivered to the cells at the bone-cement interface . The in vivo response to the growth hormone loaded cement was compared to the plain cement , using light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and scanning e...
