The effect of Hydrogen Peroxide treatments on dental enamel porosity and protein structure and its long-term implications on tooth hardness and optical properties by Ovidiu, Ciobanu

“…ResultsShade analysis revealed that, in the short term, HP treatment significantly increased lightness and Hue and decreased chroma compared to DW (p < 0.05); however, 1 week after treatment some of the initial gains in tooth lightness were partially lost. …”

Late-diagnosed complete intravaginal testicular torsion with preserved blood flow and viable testis in an adolescent by Zvizdic, Zlatan

“…In intermittent TT, the degree of spermatic cord twist is ≥ 360°, but spontaneous resolution occurs after a short time. In the mentioned forms of TT, color Doppler ultrasonography (CDS) shows a subtle decreased blood flow or flow that appears symmetrical with the contralateral testis.1 In contrast, complete TT results in testicular ischemia due to compromised blood flow to the affected testis. …”

Modified zno nanoparticles using iron ions (Fe3+) for photo-catalytic degradation of toxic pollutants under sunlight by Ba-Abbad, Muneer M.

“…The photocatalytic activities of pure ZnO and Fe-ZnO samples were evaluated based on the degradation of 2-chlorophenol in an aqueous solution under the sunlight. The samples with a small concentration of Fe3+ ions showed enhanced photocatalytic activity with an optimal maximum performance at 0.5 wt. %. …”

Electrically conductive hybrid organic crystals as flexible optical waveguides by Li, Liang

“…The elements respond rapidly to temperature by curling or uncurling in about 0.2 s, which in one typical case corresponds to exceedingly fast deformation and recovery rates of 2187.5° and 1458.3° , respectively. In cyclic operation mode, their conductivity decreases less than 1% after 10,000 thermal cycles. …”

EFFECT OF ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM STRESS MEDIATED BY HYPERGLYCEMIA ON BARRIER FUNCTION IN RETINAL CELLS by Saif, Atiya Ramadan

“…The expression of Adhesion proteins (ICAM-1 and E-selectin) were increased in hyperglycemia and decreased expression with PBA. Conclusion: Our results suggest that hyperglycemia may activate ER stress that could play a role in the angiogenesis in the diabetic retinopathy.…”
