PURPOSE To assess whether a fluoride dose response could be detected with a relatively small sample size in a short duration using a novel randomized, double-blind study design. METHODS Subjects (N = 644, with approximately 215 per group) with a mean age of 10.4 years old (9-12 years old) used a placebo dentifrice, an 1100 ppm F dentifrice or a 2800 ppm F dentifrice for the first 9 months of ...

Intelligent methods have been applied to many fields for a long time. Recently, Visible Light Communication (VLC) systems widely include learning and classification models improve their performances. The of L-Pulse Position Modulation (L-PPM) formats is crucial VLC since the modulation order L very effective providing energy efficiency increasing transmission capacity. In this paper, therefore,...

This study evaluated the impact of different concentrations of glyphosate (Rondup(®)) on planktonic and biofilm growth of P. aeruginosa. Aerobic and anaerobic cultures of P. aeruginosa ATCC(®)15442 inoculated in MHB + glyphosate (0.845 ppm, 1.690 ppm, 8.45 ppm, 16.90 ppm, 84.50 ppm, 169 ppm, 845 ppm, and 1690 ppm) and cultured in normoxia and anoxia, following their OD(560nm) every hour for 24 ...

BACKGROUND It has been proposed that the expired-air carbon monoxide (CO) threshold for confirming smoking abstinence in clinical practice be reduced below 10 ppm. Optimal thresholds may vary across regions. Data are needed to assess the impact of such a change on claimed success. METHODS A total of 253 smokers who attended the Tanglin quit smoking clinic in Malaysia were followed-up 1, 3 and...

AIM A study was undertaken to investigate the effect of organic zinc (zinc nicotinate, Zn-nic) supplementation (6, 9, and 12 ppm) compared to inorganic zinc (12 ppm) on growth performance, hematology, serum biochemical constituents oxidative stress, and immunity in weaned female Sprague-Dawley rats. MATERIAL AND METHODS A 48 weaned rats (285.20±1.95 g) were randomly distributed to 4 dietary t...

BACKGROUND We recently reported that valve prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) is associated with persisting pulmonary hypertension after mitral valve replacement. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of PPM on mortality in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement. METHODS AND RESULTS The indexed valve effective orifice area was estimated for each type and size of pr...
