The case report presented here is of a 4-year-old girl with severely decayed maxillary anterior teeth. After root canal treatment, the primary maxillary central and lateral incisors were reinforced using polyethylene fiber-reinforced composite resin short posts and restored using celluloid strip crowns. The technique described here offers a simple and effective method for restoring severely dec...

We propose a novel approach of wet electrospinning to yield fiber-reinforced polymer ceramic composites, where reactive precursor gel is used as collector. illustrate our by generating polyethylene oxide (PEO) fibers in potassium silicate gel; the later activated using metakaolin ceramic-0.5 wt% PEO fiber composite. An increase 29% and 22% recorded for fabricated composites terms indentation mo...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate in an analytical and descriptive manner the evidence published so far on the use of polyethylene glycol (PEG), with or without electrolytes, in the management of functional constipation and the treatment of fecal impaction. METHODOLOGY Search on MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane databases until May 2016 of all publications adjusted to the follo...

Grinded glass fiber (GGF) embedded high density polyethylene (HDPE) membranes were prepared via thermally induced phase separation method. FESEM images showed that all the membranes had leafy structure, indicating a solid-liquid mechanism during phase separation. The results of EDX and TGA analyses confirmed that the fibers were dispersed in the HDPE matrix uniformly. Normalized water flux of t...
