To determine effects of intraarticularly administered tiludronate on articular cartilage in vivo, eight healthy horses were injected once with tiludronate (low dose tiludronate [LDT] 0.017 mg, n = 4; high dose tiludronate [HDT] 50 mg, n = 4) into one middle carpal joint and with saline into the contralateral joint. Arthrocentesis of both middle carpal joints was performed pre-treatment, and 10 ...

The recently developed high-order accurate multiple image approximation to the reaction field for a charge inside a dielectric sphere [J. Comput. Phys., 223 (2007) 846-864] is compared favorably to other commonly employed reaction field schemes. These methods are of particular interest because they are useful in the study of biological macromolecules by the Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics me...

Abstract Background Severe hypodontia (developmental absence of teeth) can have significant functional and cosmetic impact, causing dietary restrictions, speech delay bullying. Management in childhood is usually with removable dental prostheses, but retention stability are often compromised by hypoplastic dento-alveolar bone ridges the edentulous areas. Presenting problems A 3-year-old child wa...
