Retention behavior of molecules mostly depends on their chemical structure. Retention data of biologically active molecules could be an indirect relationship between their structure and biological or pharmacological activity, since the molecular structure affects their behavior in all pharmacokinetic stages. In the present paper, retention parameters (RM0) of biologically active 1,2-O-isopropyl...

Objective(s): Auraptene (7-geranyloxycoumarin) (AUR), from Citrus species has shown anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and beta-secretase inhibitory effects. Scopolamine is a nonselective muscarinic receptor antagonist which causes short-term memory impairments and is used for inducing animal model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This research aimed to investigate ...

  Objective: Fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) posts have recently become more popular for restoring endodontically treated teeth because of providing esthetics, better stress distribution and lower risk of root fracture. Resistance against tensile forces dislodging the post from the root canal is a prerequisite for these posts. This study aimed to evaluate the tensile retention (strength) of in...

An important property that has been extensively studied in quantitative structure activityrelationship (QSAR) is the chromatographic retention index. QSAR study is suggested for theprediction of retention index of alkanes and alkenes compounds. Modeling of the retention indexof alkanes and alkenes compounds as a function of molecular structures was established bydifferent chemometrics methods. ...

INTRODUCTION Patient retention in care is a critical challenge for antiretroviral treatment programs. This is mainly because retention in care is related to adherence to treatment and patient survival. It is therefore imperative that health facilities and programs measure patient retention in care. However, the currently available tools, such as Kaplan Meier, for measuring retention in care hav...

objective: long-term retention of pit and fissure sealants is crucial for their success. this clinical study evaluated the retention rate of a flowable composite resin (filtek supreme xt flowable restorative) compared to a conventional resin-based sealant (concise light cure white sealant) over 12 months. materials and methods: forty subjects aged 6 to 9 years were included in the study. using ...

introduction: mucous retention cysts are a subtype of intracordal vocal cysts that may occur spontaneously or may be associated with poor vocal hygiene, and which require optimal treatment. the objective of this study was to present a new laser-assisted microsurgery technique for treating intracordal mucous retention cysts and to describe the final outcomes.   materials and methods: in this pro...

abstract urinary retention, a rare childhood problem which is most commonly caused by urinary tract infection. however, neurological neoplasm must also be considered in differential diagnosis. we report here a 3 year old girlthat was referred to the pediatrics department of kashan university of medical sciences (kaums) with a history of urinary retention for 10 days. by insertion of a foley cat...

the effect of inter-implant distance on retention and resistance of implant-tissue-supported overdentures is lacking in the literature. an in vitro study was performed to evaluate this effect for mandibular implant-tissue-supported overdentures retained by two ball attachments.an acrylic cast of an edentulous mandible was fabricated. three pairs of implants were symmetrically placed at both sid...
