OBJECTIVE In the present study, we examined whether 2, 2-bis [4-(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloxypropoxy) phenyl] propane (Bis-GMA) has effects on LSC2 cells, human dental pulp cell line. MATERIAL AND METHODS The viability, cell cycle, and morphology of LSC2 cells were analyzed after exposure to several different concentrations of Bis-GMA. The recovery of viability of Bis-GMA exposed cells was also a...

PURPOSE To compare the depth of sedation determined by Ramsay sedation scale (RSS) with electroencephalogram-based bispectral index (BIS) and patient state index (PSI). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty mechanically ventilated cardiac surgical patients undergoing propofol and morphine sedation were assessed hourly for up to 6 hours or until tracheal extubation using the BIS, PSI, and RSS. Correlati...

The reactions of 1 - chloro - 2 - nitro benzene with 2 - Amino thio phenol yield the 2 - ( ( nitro phenyl ) thio ) aniline and then 2 , 2' - thio dianiline of this compound was prepared . Also the symmetrical potentially pentadentate N 2 O 2 S Schiff base ligand 2 , 2' - ( ( ( thio bis (1 , 2 - phenylene ) ) bis ( azanilidene ) ) bis ( methenilidene ) ) diphenol ( H 2 L ) obtain by added salicy...

UNLABELLED Bispectral index (BIS) is an electroencephalographic variable promoted for measuring depth of anesthesia. Electromyographic activity influences surface electroencephalography and the calculation of BIS. In this study, we sought to determine the effect of spontaneous electromyographic activity on BIS. BIS was monitored in three volunteers by using an Aspect A-1000 monitor. The experim...

Objective: The main objective of this study was to investigate the explicit memory bias in the people with high BAS/BIS sensitivity in the different manipulated mood states.  Methods: By using purposive sampling method, seventy-four participants (undergraduate students) were selected based on z-scores of 480 using the Carver and White’s BAS/BIS scale. They were distributed as: 24 wi...

BACKGROUND Processed electroencephalographic indices, such as the bispectral index (BIS), are potential adjuncts for assessing anesthetic depth. While BIS® monitors might aid anesthetic management, unprocessed or nonproprietary electroencephalographic data may be a rich source of information for clinicians. We hypothesized that anesthesiologists, after training in electroencephalography interpr...

BACKGROUND The Bispectral Index (BIS) has been calibrated for several general anaesthetic agents including isoflurane. Halothane is still used in paediatric anaesthesia. Compared with other volatile anaesthetics, halothane has a different receptor affinity and differing effects on the EEG. There are limited data evaluating the BIS with halothane. We set out to compare the BIS using halothane an...
