The aim of the study was to assess the failure loads and compressive stresses among bilayered press on Y-TZP (POZ) and press on metal (POM) crowns with different core-veneer thickness. ⋯ Press on metal specimen showed higher resistance to fracture than Press on Y-TZP specimens. Improved failure loads were observed in thin coping and thick veneers among Press on Y-TZP crowns.
-
To analyze the clinical effect of budesonide/fomoterol combined with montelukast in the treatment of chronic persistent asthma. ⋯ Budesonide/formoterol powder inhalation combined with montelukast can effectively improve the lung function, reduce the level of inflammatory factors, and accelerate the regression of symptoms in the treatment of chronic persistent asthma. It is worth clinical application.
-
To determine the role of structured reflection in teaching basic surgical skills in undergraduate students. ⋯ The novices who demonstrates better reflective capacity exhibit better acquisition of surgical skills.
-
To determine the frequency of hyponatremia in patients taking Sodium Picosulfate Solution (SPS) solution for bowel preparation prior to colonoscopy and to compare serum sodium levels before and after SPS. ⋯ No serious adverse effects were reported in any of our patients. There was no significant difference in the serum sodium level of patients undergoing colonoscopy before taking SPS bowel preparation solution and serum sodium level before colonoscopy.
