Belitic calcium sulfoaluminate (BCSA) cement is a sustainable alternative to Portland that offers rapid setting characteristics could accelerate throughput in precast concrete operations. BCSA cements have lower carbon footprint, embodied energy, and natural resource consumption than cement. However, these benefits are not often utilized structural members due lack of specifications perceived l...

Stress evolution of restrained concrete is directly related to early-age cracking (EAC) potential concrete, which a tricky problem that often happens in engineering practice. Due the global objective carbon reduction, Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) has become more promising binder comparing with Ordinary Port-land Cement (OPC). Although GGBFS produces less hydration heat further p...

INTRODUCTION Bone regeneration grafts (BRG) are widely used in the treatment of osseous defects and oral surgery. The various techniques and associated success rates of bone augmentation require evaluation by systematic review and meta-analysis of eligible studies. The aim of this systematic review was to compare alveolar bone regeneration in humans using Bio-Oss and autogenous bone graft. MA...

The peri-implant soft tissue (PIS) augmentation procedure has become an integral part of implant-prosthetic rehabilitation. Minimal width keratinized mucosa (KM) 2 mm is deemed necessary to facilitate oral hygiene maintenance around the implant and provide hard stability. PIS thickness at least recommended achieve esthetic appearance prevent recessions prosthetic autogenous grafts can be divide...

This study shows the effect of different types internal curing liquid on properties alkali-activated slag (AAS) mortar. NaOH solution and deionized water were used as agents zeolite sand was agent that replaced standard at 15% 30%, respectively. Experiments mechanical properties, hydration kinetics, autogenous shrinkage (AS), temperature, relative humidity, surface electrical resistivity, ultra...

The decreased incidence of potentially autogenous Gramnegative bacillary infections may well be unrelated to the change in ward architecture, but the criteria used to classify cross-infection meant that some of the intestinal type of infections labelled autogenous were in fact cross-infections. As expected, the incidence of definite staphylococcal autogenous infection remained substantially the...
