excessive alveolar bone resorption is commonly found when teeth are extracted. this is a problem in anterior part of mouth because it will result in an unaesthetic pontic on a narrow hollowed out alveolar ridge. yet, another problem is gingival recession and root exposure in adjacent teeth which represent a therapeutic problem to the clinician. use of acellular dermal matrix graft is an appropr...

A review of the literature on chronic inhalation studies in which rats were exposed to mineral fibres at known fibre number concentrations was undertaken to examine the specific roles of fibre length and composition on the incidences of both lung cancer and mesothelioma. For lung cancer, the percentage of lung tumours (y) could be described by a relation of the form y = a + bf + cf2, where f is...

OBJECTIVES A utility-scale wind turbine blade manufacturing plant requested assistance from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) in controlling worker exposures to styrene at a plant that produced 37 and 42 m long fiber-reinforced wind turbine blades. The plant requested NIOSH assistance because previous air sampling conducted by the company indicated concerns about...

OBJECTIVES Using urinary 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP) as a measure of total absorbed dose, the primary objective of this study was to evaluate the total effect of inhalation and dermal PAH exposures while considering other factors such as age, body mass index and smoking that may also have a significant effect on urinary 1-OHP. METHODS The study population included two groups of highway constructi...

The focus of this paper is on the analysis market imperfections in French and U.K. wheat value chains. We used mark-up mark-down models stochastic frontier to estimate degree two completely different wheat-to-bread chains for stages/sectors—milling baking. Our results reveal some within input output markets both milling baking sectors France United Kingdom. However, abuse bargaining power espec...
