Now that the conjectures of Leedham-Green and Newman have been proved, we probe deeper into the classification of p-groups using coclass. We determine the pro-2-groups of coclass at most 3 and use these to classify the 2-groups of coclass at most 3 into families. Using extensive computational evidence, we make some detailed conjectures about the structure of these families. We also conjecture t...

Background: This study investigated the effect of three remineralizing agents on improving white spot lesions (WSLs). Material and Methods: This clinical trial included children who had at least one WSL on anterior teeth of upper or lower jaws. The participants were randomly assigned to 4 groups by treatment: 1) a cream containing casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate and fluoride (...

The activity of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 in synovial fluids (SF) sampled from dogs with joint disorders was investigated by gelatin zymography and densitometry. Pro-MMP-2 showed similar activity levels in dogs with idiopathic polyarthritis (IPA; n=17) or canine rheumatoid arthritis (cRA; n=4), and healthy controls (n=10). However, dogs with cranial cruciate ligament rupture (C...

japan, known as a pro-choice country in terms of abortion, is currently facing the increase of “selective abortions” thanks to new prenatal screening. efforts to restrict proliferation of new technology has not been successful and it is likely that japan will turn pro-life by strictly enforcing the maternity protection act (mpa), which prohibits abortions due to “fetal cause”.

Whereas members of high-status racial groups show ingroup preference when attitudes are measured implicitly, members of low-status racial groups--both adults and children--typically show no bias, potentially reflecting awareness of the ingroup's low status. We hypothesized that when status differences are especially pronounced, children from low-status groups would show an implicit outgroup bia...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a probiotic supplement during 4 mo of spring training in men and women engaged in endurance-based physical activities on incidence of upper respiratory tract infections (URTI) and mucosal immune markers. Sixty-six highly active individuals were randomized to probiotic (n = 33) or placebo (n = 33) groups and, under double-blind procedures, ...
