Clinical trial designs for testing of products for dentine hypersensitivity--a review.
(1997)Dentine hypersensitivity (DH) is a perplexing clinical entity. There is no doubt that patients self-report discomfort arising from various stimuli, but the highly subjective nature of the condition makes it extremely ... -
Effect of estrogen suppression on the mineralization density of iliac crest biopsies in young women as assessed by backscattered electron imaging.
(1998-03)The effects of estrogen suppression on bone mineralization in young women were studied by quantitative backscattered electron (BSE) imaging of transiliac biopsies taken before and after treatment for endometriosis. Treatment ... -
Bond strength of repaired anterior composite resins: an in vitro study.
(1998-11)The objectives of this study were to investigate the repair potential of two commercially available composite resins in terms of bond strength, and the effectiveness of two commercially available adhesive systems used as ... -
Osteoconduction in large macroporous hydroxyapatite ceramic implants: evidence for a complementary integration and disintegration mechanism.
(1999-06)Large, cylindrical implants of a porous calcium phosphate ceramic ("hydroxyapatite" starting material, HAC) were used to replace far greater than critical-sized sections of the midshaft of sheep tibiae and retrieved at 2 ... -

Genetic regulation of mouse glycosylphosphatidylinositol-phospholipase D
(Elsevier, 2004-04-23)Glycosylphosphatidylinositol phospholipase D (GPI-PLD) has been proposed to be responsible for cleaving membrane-associated glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) molecules to generate inositol phosphoglycan (IPGs), which ... -
Human anti-anthrax protective antigen neutralizing monoclonal antibodies derived from donors vaccinated with anthrax vaccine adsorbed.
(2004-05-12)BACKGROUND: Potent anthrax toxin neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies were generated from peripheral blood lymphocytes obtained from Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed (AVA) immune donors. The anti-anthrax toxin human monoclonal ... -
Molecular dissection of the human antibody response to the structural repeat epitope of Plasmodium falciparum sporozoite from a protected donor.
(2004-07-29)BACKGROUND: The circumsporozoite surface protein is the primary target of human antibodies against Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites, these antibodies are predominantly directed to the major repetitive epitope (Asn-Pro-Asn-Ala)n, ... -
Cognate peptide-receptor ligand mapping by directed phage display.
(2005-06-17)BACKGROUND: A rapid phage display method for the elucidation of cognate peptide specific ligand for receptors is described. The approach may be readily integrated into the interface of genomic and proteomic studies to ... -
A double-blind, crossover study of Biotène Oralbalance and BioXtra systems as salivary substitutes in patients with post-radiotherapy xerostomia.
(2005-09)This study assessed the efficacy of the Bioxtra (BX) and Biotène Oralbalance (OB) systems in the treatment of post-radiotherapy xerostomia. In a double-blind, crossover study, 20 patients with post-radiotherapy xerostomia ...
