The treatment of Class I malocclusion treatment is to arrange the teeth position in a good arch form. Arch form consists of tooth size and arch dimension (intercanine width, canine depth, intermolar width, molar depth). Several ways are developed to describe arch form. A lot of methods used to describe arch form qualitatively. The objective of this study is to develop qualitative arch form diag...

The aim of this paper is to explore conventional methods of teaching the arch-design studio withideas of sustainability and creativity as agents of change. If this is realised, it means the students of architecture canbe grounded in designing with sustainability and creativity ideas and can be professionals that design and build withideas of creativity and sustainability. So, there are real bui...

Introduction: A study model is a precise three dimensional replica of patient’s dentition and plays an important role in treatment planning. Many digital multi-media applications have become available to the clinician and his or her staff to facilitate standard procedures in practice and management. The aim of this study is to evaluate reliability and validity of dental measurement made on dig...

Slow breathing training reduces resting blood pressure, probably by modifying central autonomic control, but evidence for this is lacking. The pressor response to static handgrip exercise is a measure of autonomic control and the aim of this study was to determine whether slow breathing training modulates the pressor responses to exercise of untrained muscles. Twenty hypertensive patients train...

The synaptic homeostasis hypothesis of sleep proposes that slow wave sleep (SWS) causes downscaling of synaptic networks potentiated during information uptake in prior wakefulness. Two studies in Neuron challenge this mechanism. Chauvette et al. (2012) show that SWS mediates an up- rather than downregulation of excitatory postsynaptic potential responses. Grosmark et al. (2012) find that downsc...

Total aortic arch replacement remains a complex surgical procedure, best practiced in high-volume aortic centers. The following report details the surgical procedure for total arch replacement with selective antegrade cerebral perfusion (SACP) for distal arch aneurysm. Following moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest and SACP, the distal arch, and then the proximal arch, is reconstructed, foll...

introduction: the objective of this study was to gather information about normal occlusion and arch dimensions in the primary teeth of the children belonging to an iranian population. methods: this descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 68 children from the city of mashhad in the 3-5 age range. dental arch dimensions, interrelationships of primary canine and second molars, overbite ...

Various surgical techniques have been developed for the repair of an interrupted aortic arch. However, tension and Gothic arch formation at the anastomotic site have remained major problems for these techniques: Excessive tension causes arch stenosis and left main bronchus compression, and Gothic arch configuration is related to cardiovascular complications. To resolve these problems, we adopte...

Foot arch is important for force transfer and shock absorption in impact sports. The purposes of this study were to measure the height of foot arch in static standing and dynamic activities, and to compare the difference of foot arch between level walking, vertical jump and sprint start. Twenty-three healthy subjects were recruited in this study. Significant differences between non-weight beari...
