OBJECTIVE
To study the effect of 100% CO, or 5% dextrose on proliferation and apoptosis of endometrial cancer cell (HEC-1-B), and to find out which one is the better distending uterus medium available to patients suspected to have endometrial cancer.
METHODS
Endometrial cancer cells were divided
Recent evidence suggests that certain bioflavonoids reduce dental caries and cariogenic bacteria incidence. The present study evaluates two separate, but related, dietary trials -- trial 1, 0.09%, 0.18%, 0.36%, and 0.72% dietary naringenin (NAR) supplementation; and trial 2, 0.57% dietary rutin (R),
BACKGROUND
Early childhood caries (ECC) is characterized by the presence of one or more decayed, missing (due to caries), or filled teeth surfaces in any primary tooth, in a child below 6 years of age. Although ECC is primarily associated with high levels of maternal Streptococcus mutans, there has
This study aimed to determine the occurrence of Candida spp. in the oral cavity of predominantly breastfed infants and in their mothers' mouths and breasts, as well as in the oral cavity of bottlefed infants and in non-lactating women. One hundred and sixty nine women and eighty-five milk-fed
BACKGROUND
Use of orthodontic appliances creates favorable conditions for growth of dental bacterial plaque.
OBJECTIVE
To establish if use of orthodontic appliance affects the presence of Candida species in the oral cavity in a group of pediatric patients.
METHODS
We studied 60 patients between 4
Secondary caries is a major reason for the replacement of restorations. Because it is hypothesized that the development of secondary caries is closely associated with pathogenic oral bacteria, an in vitro microbial model has been developed to produce secondary carious lesions. A mixture of overnight
Background: Early childhood caries (ECC) is an aggressive, destructive form of dental caries that affects the children younger than 6 years of age. Candida is known to increase the adherence of Streptococcus mutans to the oral biofilm and
The first step for a pathogenic bacterium to initiate infection is via attachment (i.e., through surface determinants) to a suitable receptor. An in vitro microbial artificial-mouth model was used to test the efficacy of polyclonal antibodies to Streptococcus mutans cell surface proteins (CsAb) and
An intravenous injection of a onefold dilution of sonicated albumin with 50% dextrose improves echocardiographic left ventricular cavitary opacification in dogs compared with sonicated albumin. The objective of this study was to determine whether sonicated dilutions of albumin with dextrose would
Introduction: Dental caries is a multifactorial disease and a dynamic process that can be prevented and reversed during the early stage. Risk assessment is an important step in decision-making and treatment planning. There are no valid tools available for the
The aim of this study was to observe the prevalence of Candida spp. in the oral cavity of children undergoing treatment with inhaled corticosteroids. Thirty children treated with inhaled corticosteroids and thirty control children were studied. Saliva samples were collected through oral rinses with
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of Candida in the buccal cavity of diabetic and non-diabetic individuals in and around Pondicherry, India and to analyse the antifungal susceptibility profile of the selected isolates.
METHODS
A total of 400 buccal samples, 200
BACKGROUND
Amphotericin B is the agent of choice for most invasive fungal infections in critically ill patients. It is associated with at least a 50% incidence of nephrotoxicity, despite prophylactic measures such as sodium loading. Newer formulations of amphotericin B are available but are costly
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to determine whether intravenous sonicated dextrose albumin could improve endocardial border resolution during dobutamine stress echocardiography.
BACKGROUND
Sonicated albumin improves endocardial border resolution in patients undergoing exercise stress
OBJECTIVE
The central hypothesis of this study was that microbubble survival, and subsequent left ventricular and myocardial ultrasound contrast, could be improved by altering microbubble gas to consist of a higher molecular weight (less diffusible) and less soluble gas.
BACKGROUND
Microbubble
