calcium acetate is used as an oral phosphate binder to control hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic renal failure. compared to calcium carbonate, control of hyperphosphatemia can be achieved at lower calcium administration with calcium acetate which likely reduces the risk of hypercalcemia. in this study, various formulations of calcium acetate tablets were prepared and their disintegrati...

objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the retentive strength of orthodontic bands cemented with amorphous calcium phosphate (acp)-containing and conventional glass ionomer cements (gics). materials and methods: one-hundred-and-twenty mandibular third molars were embedded in acrylic resin blocks with the buccal surface of crowns perpendicular to the base of the mold. the ...

conclusions cigarette smoking and bmi are two main confounding factors affecting the correlation of calcium and phosphate concentrations in the saliva and periodontal status. background periodontitis is a multi-factorial disease related to the formation of dental plaque. saliva composition plays a role in plaque formation and in the development of periodontal disease. objectives this study was ...

application of therapeutic gene transfer in the treatment of genetic diseases is a notable progress but there are some disadvantages and limitations in it. the process of overcoming these barriers is a drastic change in gene delivery. recently, calcium phosphate nanoparticles alone, or in combination with viral and nonviral vectors, were found to have a positive effect on gene transfer especial...

Hyperphosphatemia has an important role in the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism and bone disease in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The most effective method of phosphate elimination lies with phosphate binders, the agent that more commonly used, calcium carbonate, is not an ideal binding agent. In this regard, calcium acetate has been reported to have more or at least...

although salivary alkaline phosphatase (alp) can balance de- and remineralization processes of enamel, there is no evidence regarding its effects on the concentrations of calcium and phosphate in saliva. the present study aims to determine the relationship between salivary alp activity and the concentrations of calcium and phosphate in saliva. in this cross-sectional study, we evaluated salivar...

to evaluate the tolerance and effectiveness of conjugated estrogen for women with established post-menopausal osteoporosis and hot flushes, with the use of paired comparison, randomized, we tested during an 10 month period the bone mineral contents and plasma glucose in subjects who afforded by premarin in dosages of 0.625 mg for days 1 to 25 and oral medroxy progesterone acetate for days 15 to...
