Detection of natural selection operating at the amino acid sequence level is important in the study of molecular evolution. Single-site analysis and one-dimensional window analysis can be used to detect selection when the biological functions of amino acid sites are unknown. Single-site analysis is useful when selection operates more or less constantly over evolutionary time, but less so when s...

the aim of this study was to compare the lateral window and osteotome techniques for sinus lifting using histological and histomorphometric methods.in this clinical trial 10 patients (a total number of 14 sinus areas) who needed implant treatment in the atrophic posterior maxilla were enrolled. in all the cases the residual bone height between the sinus floor and the alveolar crest was less tha...

background: the aim of this study was to determine the correlation between ultrastructural studies for pinopodes expression after ovarian hyperstimulation and progesterone injection in mice. materials and methods: adult nmri mice were superovulated using human menopasual gonadotropic (hmg) and human chorionic gonadotropic (hcg) hormones; after that, daily injection of progesterone (1 mg/mouse) ...
