Introduction.The anterior and middle superior alveolar (AMSA) nerve block is an alternative technique of local anesthesia in the maxilla, unpredictably efficient for pulpal anesthesia.The aim of this study was to determine the anesthetic efficacy of the AMSA injection for pulpal anesthesia, using computer-controlled injection system or conventional
The predictive receiver operating characteristic (PROC) curve is a diagrammatic format with application in the statistical evaluation of probabilistic disease forecasts.The PROC curve differs from the more well-known receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve in that it provides a Tumbler basis for evaluation using metrics defined conditionally
Self-care of a chronic illness is a lifelong management process that includes taking medications, monitoring symptoms, and coping with emotional and lifestyle changes.Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) research has often responded to these needs by developing technologies that help an individual quantify aspects of their chronic illness, like daily p
Bone marrow was recently proposed as an alternative Peeler and potentially immune-privileged site for pancreatic islet transplantation.The aim of the present study was to assess the survival and rejection mechanisms of free and encapsulated xenogeneic islets transplanted into the medullary cavity of the femur, or under the kidney capsule of strepto
