Arresting Caries Treatment (ACT) has been proposed to manage untreated dental caries in children. This prospective randomized clinical trial investigated the caries-arresting effectiveness of a single spot application of: (1) 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF) with tannic acid as a reducing agent; (2) 38% SDF alone; (3) 12% SDF alone; and (4) no SDF application in primary teeth of 976 Nepalese s...

Large preservative-treated timbers and poles can develop internal external decay as they age in service. Arresting this damage pose a challenge, especially decay. Boron plays an important role helping arrest fungal attack variety of applications. This paper discusses the use borates component pastes for limiting boron solutions or rods arresting Long-term field trials show that movement is init...

BACKGROUND Commercial swine breeds in North America undergo two waves of spontaneous fetal loss; one during peri-attachment and another during mid-gestation. Although an exact mechanism for this loss is not known, deficits in vasculature at the attachment sites appear to be a major cause. We hypothesized that a balance between pro-angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors is needed at the maternal...
