Dental and skeletal components of Class II open bite treatment with a modified Thurow appliance by Helder Baldi Jacob (7142384)

“…Maxillary/mandibular, horizontal/vertical, dental/skeletal movements (ANS, PNS, U1, U6, Co, Go, Pog, L1, L6) were assessed, based on 14 landmarks, 8 angles (S-N-ANS, SNA, PPA, S-N-Pog, SNB, MPA, PP/MPA, ANB) and 3 linear measures (N-Me, ANS-Me, S-Go). RESULTS: Treatment caused significantly greater angle decrease between the palatal and the mandibular plane of the experimental group, primarily due to an increase in the palatal plane angle. …”

(A) Use of the microdialyser system to resolve the bacteriostatic/bactericidal credentials of antimicrobial drugs. The graphs in the left column represent a typical growth curves for each growth chamber size and those in the right column represent a set of growth curves for the same growth chamber volume. The cultures represented by the red curves were first cultured in drug-free medium for 15 hours. Using the microdialysis process, at 15 hours, rifampicin (350 μg/ml) was introduced to these cultures and then withdrawn at 150 hours. Although microbial growth in the bigger volume reactors—seven 500, eight 1200 and eight 1700pL—was effectively suppressed when rifampicin was applied, cell growth resumed when the drug was withdrawn, suggesting that rifampicin was bacteriostatic under these conditions. The cells in one of the eight 500pL maintained slow growth in the presence of the drug. Microbial growth in five of six small (200pL) growth chambers was only slightly decreased by the drug a by Brilliant B. Luthuli (785964)
