INTRODUCTION Along with introduction of dentin bonding agents (DBA), their clinical use as lining materials is increasing rapidly. Since remaining dentinal thickness (RDT) has always been a concern for cytopathic effect of restorative materials, its effect on reduction of cytotoxicity of these materials especially DBAs is critical. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the cytot...

Objective. The most effective nonpharmacological treatment for insomnia disorder is cognitive behavioural therapy-insomnia (CBT-i). However CBT-i may not suit everyone. Auricular acupuncture (AA) is a complementary treatment. Studies show that it may alleviate insomnia symptoms. The aim of this randomised controlled study was to compare treatment effects of AA with CBT-i and evaluate symptoms o...

OBJECTIVES Solvents are ingredients in dentin-bonding agents (DBAs) that are essential to obtain efficient adhesion to dentin under wet-technique bonding protocol. However, an excess of solvents can compromise bonding durability. This study aimed to assess the retention of solvents present in different DBAs after their application to a demineralized dentin matrix. METHODS Thirty-six specimens...

The pressing need for achieving and maintaining high performance in database systems has made database administration one of the most stressful jobs in information technology. On the other hand, the increasing complexity of database systems has made qualified database administrators (DBAs) a scarce resource. DBAs are now responsible for an array of demanding tasks; they need to (i) provision an...

OBJECTIVES The objective of this study is to translate and validate the Dysfunctional Beliefs and Attitudes about Sleep Brief Version (DBAS-16)) in Hindi language. MATERIALS AND METHODS The scale was obtained online, and the permission for translation was obtained from the author. The translation of the scale was carried out following back translation method. The scale was applied on 63 parti...

Time series data commonly occur when variables are monitored over time. Many real-world applications involve the comparison of long time series across multiple variables (multi-attributes). Often business people want to compare this year’s monthly sales with last year’s sales to make decisions. Data warehouse administrators (DBAs) want to know their daily data loading job performance. DBAs need...

Database administrators (DBAs) and experts face a large spectrum of procedures in order to ensure the ongoing operational functionality and efficiency of their organization's databases and the applications that access those databases. Unfortunately, these procedures cannot be used directly in a multitude of specific situations and contexts. To deal with situation specificity and contexts at han...

as surfactants enhance the membrane transport of organic compounds, it has to be assumed that they decisively influence the absorption of pollutants from house dust. sampling sites for the surfactant analysis include housing areas, each location of which has different surroundings such as rural, urban, construction, and industrial area. three stations had been selected for each housing area and...

Graph has currently become an increasingly popular model in many real applications. The efficiency of graph storage is crucial for these Generally speaking, the tuning task relies on database administrators to find best storage. However, DBAs make decisions by mainly relying their experiences and intuition. Due limitations DBAs, may have uncertain performance worse efficiency. In this paper, we...
