Loss of variable amount soft and hard tissueis often an inevitable consequence missing teeth.Prosthetic rehabilitation large anterior alveolar ridge defects is a challenge to the clinician.1 Such require not just replacement teeth, but also closure defective area so as achieve proper speech aesthetics. Fixed removable partial dentures are indicated for patients with extensive tissue loss when a...

background: failure in the development of diaphragm leaves a posterolateral defect known as bochdalek hernia .this anomaly is observed on the left side in 80-90 percent of the cases. incomplete development of the posterior diaphragm causes the abdominal viscera to move to the chest cavity, causing the lung to become hypoplastic at the affected side. ectopic kidneys are mainly located within the...

A baseline-free defect localization method in thin plates is proposed and tested. In this proof-of-concept work, a steel ball pressed against an aluminum plate used to mimic surface contact defect. The technique takes benefit of repetitive nonlinear pump-probe interaction with backpropagation imaging algorithm. High-frequency probe waves are periodically emitted by piezoelectric patch transduce...

Light sources on the scale of single molecules can be addressed and characterized their proper sub-nanometer by scanning tunneling microscopy induced luminescence (STML). Such a source driven defined short charge pulses while is detected with sub-nanosecond resolution. We introduce an approach to concurrently image molecular emitter, which based individual defect, its local environment along dy...

We study how a coupled array of spiking chaotic systems synchronizes to an external driving in a short time. Synchronization means spike separation at adjacent sites much shorter than the average inter-spike interval; a local lack of synchronization is called a defect. The system displays sudden spontaneous defect disappearance at a critical coupling strength. Below critical coupling, the syste...

Version and bug databases contain a wealth of information about software failures—how the failure occurred, who was affected, and how it was fixed. Such defect information can be automatically mined from software archives; and it frequently turns out that some modules are far more defect-prone than others. How do these differences come to be? We research how code properties like (a) code comple...

We use a regular arrangement of kirigami elements to demonstrate an inverse design paradigm for folding a flat surface into complex target configurations. We first present a scheme using arrays of disclination defect pairs on the dual to the honeycomb lattice; by arranging these defect pairs properly with respect to each other and choosing an appropriate fold pattern a target stepped surface ca...

A 79-year-old hypertensive, diabetic woman with known ischemic heart disease, previously revascularized, was referred to our Cardiology Department because of effort-induced dyspnoea associated with bilateral calf stiffness during a walk at high altitude. A thallium scan with intravenous (i.v.) dipyridamole stress showed a fixed inferior perfusion defect and a reversible perfusion defect in the ...

Two cases of a previously unreported sperm defect appearing in boar studs in Finland are presented. Spermatozoa showed small particles scattered on their surface with a prevalence decreasing with boar age. Semen samples, either stained with eosin-nigrosin or examined with phase contrast optics on formaldehyde-fixed spermatozoa, revealed the presence of multiple particles attached to the surface...

background: lip carcinoma is a common cancer with a good prognosis and when patients refer early in the course of disease the results of treatment are acceptable. surgical procedures for reconstruction of lip defects are the use of remaining lip tissue, tissue from the opposite lip, adjacent cheek tissue, distant flaps and microvascular free flaps. the bitemporal (visor) flap is a regional flap...
