Cracked tooth is a distinct type of longitudinal tooth fracture which occurs very commonly and its diagnosis can be challenging. This type of fracture tends to grow and change over time. Clinical diagnosis is difficult because the signs and symptoms are variable or nonspecific and may even resemble post-treatment disease following root canal treatment or periodontal disease. This variety and un...

INTRODUCTION Sudden fever of unknown origin is quite a common emergency and may lead to hospitalization. A rise in body temperature can be caused by infectious diseases and by other types of medical condition. This case report is of a woman who had fever at night for several days and other clinical signs which were likely related to cracked dental mercury amalgam. CASE PRESENTATION A healthy ...

The purpose of this article is to review the clinical features, diagnosis and management of the cracked tooth syndrome (CTS). The condition refers to an incomplete fracture of a vital posterior tooth that occasionally extends into the pulp. A lack of awareness of the condition coupled with its varied clinical features can make diagnosis of CTS difficult. Common symptoms include an uncomfortable...

In order to have fault identification for the gate rotor shaft with multiple cracks effectively, the quantity identification method of the gate rotor shaft with multiple cracks based on wavelet finite element method is established and the frequency test of the gate rotor shaft based on blind source separation algorithm is analyzed. Firstly the wavelet finite element was established by combining...

When normal volunteers ate isocaloric wheat-based meals, their plasma insulin responses (peak concentration and area under curve) increased stepwise: whole grains < cracked grains < coarse flour < fine flour. Insulin responses were also greater with fine maizemeal than with whole or cracked maize grains but were similar with whole groats, rolled oats, and fine oatmeal. The peak-to-nadir swing o...

Iran is the biggest pistachio producer and exporter in the world. Surely, one of the most problems of pistachio industry is Aflatoxin contamination in recent years that treated exportation this valuable crop. This research was done in order to evaluate Aflatoxin contamination in indehiscence and mechanical splitting pistachios of Ouhadi cultivars in Rafsanjan region. Treatments of this research...

abstract: there is always a need to increase a distillate output of solar still. if plates will be used inside solar still then distillate output of solar still are expected to increase. hence, an experimental study is conducted to improve distillate output of basin solar stills by increasing the effective surface area with the help of different plates. for the purpose of experiment, three sola...

in reinforced concrete design, there are situations where transfer of shear across a specific plane needs to be considered. examples of such situation include corbels, bearing shoes, ledger beam bearing, and a host of connection between precast concrete elements. in this study, the shear transfer behavior of reinforced concrete is investigated experimentally by conducting test on 6 precracked p...

abstract rice can be cultivated in various soils but soil with heavy texture and low permeability is more appropriate for its growth than other types of soil texture. it’s assumed that existence of zeolite in soil can be effective for moisture retention and avoiding of occurrence of crack in soil. in order to investigation of the effect of zeolite on moisture status and hydraulic properties of ...
