Anchorage has been defined as a resistance to unwanted tooth movement. It is imperative for the treatment of both dental and skeletal malocclusions. Skeletal anchorage provides better chances obtain absolute in orthodontic The topic vast compiling it one single article will be an injustice readers. So, we have divided this into two review articles under headings introduction, evolution historic...

The Archimedes screw turbine (AST) is the most sustainable mini-hydropower extraction method that offers number of economic, social, and environmental advantages. Nowadays, many researchers are interested in AST development as it considered a new technology. Currently, lot conducting experimental testing screws, comparing their reliability with computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analyses. Almost...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Craniotomy bone flaps should be replaced for both cosmetic and protective purposes. Different methods are available commercially. The aim of this study was to assess outcome of bone flap fixation using mini titanium plates and screws. METHODS Between March, 2011 and March, 2014, 71 patients underwent cranial bone flap fixation with mini titanium plates and screws afte...

The aim of this study was to evaluate hot-melt extrusion (HME) as a continuous process to form cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complexes in order to increase the solubility and dissolution rate of itraconazole (ITZ), a class II model drug molecule of the Biopharmaceutics Classification System. Different CD derivatives were tested in a 1:1 (CD:ITZ) molar ratio to obtain CD ternary inclusion complexe...

PURPOSE Complications in metacarpal fracture treatment increase in proportion to the severity of the initial injury and the invasiveness of the surgical fixation technique. This manuscript evaluates the feasibility of minimizing internal fixation construct size and soft tissue dissection, while preserving the advantages of stable internal fixation in a biomechanical model. We hypothesized that ...
