In general, the coefficient estimates of linear models are carried out using ordinary least squares (OLS) method. Since analysis variance is also a model, coefficients can be estimated least-squares this study, in two-way were performed by Cholesky decomposition. The purpose decomposition finding make variables used model being orthogonal such that important easily identified. sum (row, column,...

In this study, the effects and interactions of reaction time and capping agent assistance during sol-gel synthesis of magnesium substituted hydroxyapatite nanopowder (MgHA) on hydroxyapatite (HA) to β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) ratio, Ca/P ratio and mean crystallite size was examined experimentally as well as through statistical analysis. MgHA nanopowders were synthesized by sol-gel technique...

BACKGROUND Tissue engineering represents very exciting advances in regenerative medicine; however, periodontal literature only contains few reports. Emdogain (EMD) consists of functional molecules that have shown many advantages in regenerative treatments. This study investigated EMD effect on gingival fibroblast adhesion to different membranes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two dense polytetrafluoro...

objectives: maintaining pulp vitality is a main goal in restorative dentistry. introduction of pulp capping agents paved the way to eliminate the shortcomings of these materials and obtain successful restorations. on the other hand, nanotechnology is an emerging field of science with increasing use in dental materials. this study sought to assess the effect of addition of nano-tio2, nano-sio2 a...

In this manuscript we present various robust statistical methods and show how to apply them in R using the WRS2 package. We elaborate on robust location measures and present robust t-test versions for independent and dependent samples. We focus on robust one-way and higher order ANOVA strategies including mixed designs (“betweenwithin subjects”). Finally, we elaborate on running interval smooth...
