The aim of the study was to evaluate the relevance of cations in different fluoride compounds for their effectiveness as anti-erosive agents. Human enamel samples underwent a de- and re-mineralisation procedure for 10 days. Erosive demineralisation was performed with 0.05 M citric acid (pH 2.3) 6 x 2 min daily followed by immersion in the test solution 6 x 2 min each. Test solutions were: SnCl2...

The dire prognosis of pancreatic cancer has not markedly improved during past decades. The present study was carried out to explore the effect of Qingyihuaji formula (QYHJ) on inhibiting pancreatic cancer and prolonging survival in related Notch signaling pathway. Proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells (SW1990 and PANC-1) was detected by MTT assay at 24, 48, and 72 h with exposure to various ...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease in children. We tested whether dietary supplementation with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) can decrease liver fat content in children with NAFLD. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a randomized controlled trial of DHA supplementation (250 mg/day and 500 mg/day) vs. placebo in 60 children with NAFLD (20 chi...

This paper is concerned with the statistical analysis of data obtained in studies of the joint action of drugs. The three methods that are compared are illustrated on real data (1), using the statistical package SAS. It is argued that while the results obtained using these methods do not differ substantially, the method allowing for estimating simultaneously all required parameters is to be pre...
