Finite elements analysis for extraoral maxillofacial external hexagon implants in the auricular region
(European Society of Biomechanics, 2016)Facial prosthetics requires a means of retention. Over the last three decades, osseo integrated implants have been used to improve the hold and retention of facial prosthesis. This finite elements analysis (FEA) ... -
FIRST DESCRIPTION OF ARGININE CATABOLIC MOVILE ELEMENT (ACME) TYPE VI HARBORING THE kdp OPERON ONLY IN Staphylococcus epidermidis USING SHORT AND LONG READ WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCING: FURTHER EVIDENCE OF ACME DIVERSITY
(2019)The arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) was first described in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and is considered to enhance transmission, persistence and survival. Subsequently ACMEs were shown to be more ... -
General dentists' perceptions and clinical management of hypomineralised second primary molars (HSPM) in Ireland
(2023)Purpose: This questionnaire aimed to explore how general dentists in the Republic of Ireland perceive and manage hypomineralised second primary molars (HSPM). Methods: Following ethical approval, a validated structured ... -
A genome-wide association study of upper aerodigestive tract cancers conducted within the INHANCE consortium.
(2011)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been successful in identifying common genetic variation involved in susceptibility to etiologically complex disease. We conducted a GWAS to identify common genetic variation ... -
Genome-wide gene expression profiling and a forward genetic screen show that differential expression of the sodium ion transporter Ena21 contributes to the differential tolerance of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis to osmotic stress
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2009)Candida albicans is more pathogenic than Candida dubliniensis. However, this disparity in virulence is surprising given the high level of sequence conservation and the wide range of phenotypic traits shared by these two ... -
GENOTYPING Candida albicans FROM CANDIDA LEUKOPLAKIA AND NON-CANDIDA LEUKOPLAKIA SHOWS NO ENRICHMENT OF MULTILOCUS SEQUENCE TYPING CLADES BUT ENRICHMENT OF ABC GENOTYPE C IN CANDIDA LEUKOPLAKIA
(2013)Oral leukoplakias are histopathologically-diagnosed as Candida leukoplakia or non-Candida leukoplakia by the presence or absence of hyphae in the superficial epithelium. Candida leukoplakia lesions have significantly ... -
Giomer composite compared to glass ionomer in occlusoproximal ART restorations of primary molars: 24-month RCT
(2022)Background Occlusoproximal restorations of primary molars usually fail, so it is necessary to investigate new materials that may overcome this challenge. Thus, this trial aimed to evaluate the longevity of occlusoproximal ... -
Glass carbomer and compomer for ART restorations: 3-year results of a randomized clinical trial
(2018)Objective: To evaluate the survival of atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) restorations using high viscosity glass ionomer cement (GIC), compomer (COM), and glass carbomer (CAR) for occlusal and occlusoproximal cavitated ... -
Glass Ionomer Sealants Can Prevent Dental Caries but Cannot Prevent Posteruptive Breakdown on Molars Affected by Molar Incisor Hypomineralization: One-Year Results of a Randomized Clinical Trial
(2021)To evaluate the preventive effect of glass ionomer cement (GIC) against dental caries and posteruptive breakdown (PEB) on molars affected by molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH). In this randomized clinical trial, 77 ... -
Global Transcriptome Sequencing Identifies Chlamydospore Specific Markers in Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis.
(2013)Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis are pathogenic fungi that are highly related but differ in virulence and in some phenotypic traits. During in vitro growth on certain nutrient-poor media, C. albicans and C. ... -
The Hall Technique 10 years on: Questions and answers.
(2017)It is ten years since the first paper on the Hall Technique was published in the British Dental Journal and almost 20 years since the technique first came to notice. Dr Norna Hall a (now retired) general dental practitioner ... -
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in the young: a spectrum or a distinct group? Part 1.
(2009)While most head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC) occurs in older people, an increasing number of young patients are being affected worldwide, with up to 5.5% <40. These are predominantly oral and oropharyngeal cancers. ... -
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in the young: a spectrum or a distinct group? Part 2.
(2009)A recent increase in the number of young patients (often nonsmokers) developing head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has been documented, however, there remains no clear evidence to support the significance of any ... -
Histone Acetylation as a Regenerative Target in the Dentine-Pulp Complex
(2020)If dental caries (or tooth decay) progresses without intervention, the infection will advance through the dentine leading to severe pulpal inflammation (irreversible pulpitis) and pulp death. The current management of ... -
A HOSPITAL OUTBREAK OF LINEZOLID-RESISTANT AND VANCOMYCIN-RESISTANT Enterococcus faecium HARBOURING AN optrA-ENCODING CONJUGATIVE PLASMID INVESTIGATED BY WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCING
(2020)Background: Linezolid is an antibiotic used to treat infections caused by multi-drug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria. Linezolid resistance in enterococci has been reported with increasing frequency, with a recent rise in ... -
How do implant surface characteristics influence peri-implant disease?
(John Wiley and Sons, 2011)Objectives: To review the literature on how implant surface characteristics influence peri-implant disease. Material and Methods: A search of PubMed and The Cochrane Library of the Cochrane Collaboration (CENTRAL) as ... -
IDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE MULTIDRUG RESISTANCE GENE cfr IN PANTON-VALENTINE LEUKOCIDIN-POSITIVE ST8-METHICILLIN-RESISTANT Staphylococcus aureus-IVa (USA300)
(2010)The staphylococcal cfr gene mediates resistance to phenicols, lincosamides, oxazolidinones, pleuromutilins, and streptogramin A, a phenotype that has been termed PhLOPSA. The cfr gene has mainly been associated with ...
