The purpose of this study was to determine if intraoral scanners (IOS) are useful for dental hygiene instruction. plaque eight volunteers with healthy dentition stained a plaque-disclosing solution, and the O’Leary Plaque Control Record (PCR) measured by direct observation evaluating IOS images. PCR values were higher images than observation. difference greatest lingual surface mandibular anter...

Nitric oxide (NO) is the principal mediator of penile erection, and soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) is the receptor for NO. In pathophysiological conditions when sGC is inactivated and not responsive to NO or sGC stimulators a new class of agents called sGC activators increase the activity of NO-insensitive sGC and produce erection. The aim of this study was to investigate erectile responses to...

The functional role of cholinergic transmission in erection is still far from being fully elucidated. This work aims to further elucidate the modulatory role of neostigmine on NO in the corpus cavernosum and to highlight whether cholinergic transmission in the penis modulates sildenafil action. The isolated rabbit corpus cavernosum and measurement of intracavernosal pressure in the anesthetized...
