Background: Increasing concern about adolescent mental health problems has resulted in schools being identified as central sites for their prevention (PsycInfo; ERIC 2000–2012). In this context, SEAL for secondary schools was launched in 2007.Method: The implementation strand of the national evaluation of secondary SEAL comprised longitudinal case studies of nine schools and used multiple metho...

Derek Duggan In vivo microleakage evaluation of two root-filling materials in teeth without a coronal seal (Under the direction of Dr. Martin Trope) Two carrier-based materials were compared to assess their resistance to coronal microleakage in a dog model when no coronal seal was present. Histologic evidence of inflammation and infection were the outcome parameters used. Experimental teeth wer...

Although the Angio-Seal arterial closure device is widely used for preventing bleeding and facilitating early ambulation after arterial puncture, it is also associated with unique complications, such as stenosis, occlusion, or peripheral embolism. We report the first case of a foot ulcer that developed 70 days after an Angio-Seal application. The collagen sponge component accidently positioned ...

Figure 2 Glove stretched over the retractor, providing a seal Figure 3 Glove port with camera inserted removal (Fig 1). This technique can also be used at a stoma site. Once the specimen is removed, stretch a sterile size 61⁄2 glove over the retractor and re-establish pneumoperitoneum. A perfect seal will be obtained (Fig 2). If the port is still required, cut the tip off any finger of the glov...

Compliant foil gas seal is a non-contact and high-efficiency sealing technology. The dynamic performance of compliant with different structure parameters was analyzed in this paper. These include the diameter, film thickness ratio groove. Compared rigid film, advantage analyzed. stability structures are obtained. results show that larger diameter disadvantage for performance. However, increase ...

Lip-seal strength is important for articulating bilabials, capturing food during eating, maintaining fluid within the oral cavity before swallowing, and achieving swallowing pressure. The objective of this study was to investigate effect lip-seal resistance training on in young adults. participants comprised 15 healthy adults aged 26–34 years, all with complete dentition. Each required perform ...

Planar patch-clamp is a two-dimensional variation of traditional patch-clamp. By contrast to classical glass micropipette, the seal quality of silicon patch-clamp chips (i.e. seal resistance and seal success rate) have remained poor due to the planar geometry and the nature of the substrate and thus partially obliterate the advantages related to planar patch-clamp. The characterization of physi...

ffects of pressure ratio and rotational speed on the leakage flow nd cavity pressure characteristics of the rotating staggered labyinth seal were investigated by means of experimental measureents and numerical simulations. The rotating seal test rig with urbine flowmeter and pressure measuring instruments was utiized to investigate the leakage flow of the staggered labyrinth eal at eight pressu...
