background: celiac disease (cd), as an autoimmune disease has initiated since ingestion of food containing gluten. constant intolerance to gluten causes damages of the small intestinal mucosa. one reason of mal-absorption in children and infants is cd. additionally, about 75% of newly identified patients with cd have low bone mineral density (bmd). many factors have role in metabolic bone disea...

considering the importance of bone augmentation prior to implant placement in order to obtain adequate bone quality and quantity, many studies have been conducted to evaluate different techniques and materials regarding new bone formation. in this study, we investigated the bone healing capacity of two different materials deproteinized bovine bone mineral (dbbm with the trade name of bio-oss) a...

A sample comprised by 53 dry modern skulls of adult small ruminants (sheep n = 36 and goat 17) from a comparative collection, absent bony pathologies, was studied on their basal craniofacial aspect. total 26 points (2 sagittal landmarks 24 semilandmarks) 32 (4 28 were chosen the sphenoid bone palatine respectively analysed means geometric morphometric techniques. The interaction individuals sid...

radionuclide therapy is widely used as an effective modality in the management of bone pain. the main indication for this treatment is symptomatic bone metastases, confirmed by bone scintigraphy. we present a case of small cell lung cancer (sclc) stage t4n2m1b, with a good metabolic response to systemic therapy and radiotherapy of the primary tumor and locoregional disease, which became metabol...

Objective (s): Artificial bone implants have been studied as a possible bone replacement for fractured and destroyed facial tissue; the techniques employed to determine the success of the dental implants. The stability, porosity and resistance of the bone implant which is subjected to varying forces and stresses within the surrounding bone is a subject of interest among the dentists. Materials ...

Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a primary and benign tumor of bone, albeit locally aggressive in some cases, such as in the epi-metaphyseal region of long bones, predominantly the distal end of femur and proximal end of tibia (1). There are a variety of treatments for a bone affected by GCT, ranging from chemotherapy, radiotherapy, embolization, and cryosurgery, to surgery with the use of chemical or...

stem cells are of great interest for regenerating disturbed tissues and organs. these cells are commonly isolated from the bone marrow, but there has been interest in other tissues in the recent years. in this study, we evaluated the possibility of isolation of stem cells from oral connective tissue and investigated their characteristics.in this experimental study, sampling from the bone marrow...
