Control of bleeding is essential during oral procedures. Although various chemical agents have been introduced and tested, hot water dressing has not to our knowledge been assessed before. Studies of operations for epistaxis or sinus conditions have suggested that irrigation with hot water can reduce bleeding, so we hypothesised that it might be effective in reducing bleeding after extraction t...

Global climate change is affecting health and mortality, particularly in vulnerable populations. High ambient temperatures decrease blood pressure (BP) in young and middle aged adults and may lead to orthostatic hypotension, increasing the risk of falls in older adults. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a test protocol to investigate BP response and aerobic capacity of ol...

The present study is a designed protocol for investigation of the analgesic effect of oral and intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of alcoholic Datura stramonium (DS) seed extract as a rich source of alkaloid substances. Male NMRI rats were divided into control and treatment groups. The treatment rats received different doses of the DS seed extract, which was prepared from alcoholic smashed s...

It is widely accepted that the classical constant-temperature hot-plate test is insensitive to cyclooxygenase inhibitors. In the current study, we developed a variant of the hot-plate test procedure (modified hot-plate (MHP) test) to measure inflammatory nociception in freely moving rats and mice. Following left and right hind paw stimulation with a phlogogen and vehicle, respectively, the anim...

Based on the hot-pressing sintering process, kinetics of crystal grain growth and densification kinetics, mixing ratio raw material powder system are designed. The pressure is maintained at 30 MPa from temperature rise to end wait until reaches corresponding hot pressing (1200°C~1400°C), keep time for 1.5h~4.5h, stop heating depressurize, alloy billet cooled room with furnace. main phases Ti2Al...

Abstract Microplastics are small (< 5 mm) synthetic polymers that a contaminant of emerging concern and can be difficult to identify due their diversity in size, shape composition. The hot needle test, or point helps researchers suspected microplastics under optical microscopy by probing physical melt deformation behavior, is low-cost practical method for widespread use. However, our knowled...

Steeping rosella tea and black are effective as denture cleaning agents they contain flavonoids that can inhibit the growth of C. Albicans. Flavonoids in brewing found pigment compounds, so when acrylic resin is soaked steeping roselle tea, it cause discoloration.This study aims to compare color changes with same treatment. A total 18 samples were divided into three groups; six immersed 20% con...

This work investigated the autogenous healing of interface bond between hollow natural fiber (HNF) (e.g., sisal fiber) and reactive magnesium cement (RMC). Preloading -reloading test was conducted to single embedded specimens, results suggested that can be improved by over 300% after wetting-air cycles conditioning, hot water conditioning demonstrated greater efficiency compared room temperatur...

Live music-making using interactive systems is not completely amenable to traditional HCI evaluation metrics such as taskcompletion rates. In this paper we discuss quantitative and qualitative approaches which provide opportunities to evaluate the music-making interaction, accounting for aspects which cannot be directly measured or expressed numerically, yet which may be important for participa...
