ESTIMATION OF FATIGUE DEFORMATION FOR POLYETHERETHERKETONE (PEEK) AND CAST COBALT-CHROMIUM CIRCUMFERENTIAL CLASPS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY

Estimation of Fatigue Deformation for Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and Cast Cobalt-Chromium Circumferential Clasps: A comparative study

Aims: This in-vitro study aimed to compare the fatigue deformation of Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and Cobalt-Chromium (Co-Cr) clasps by mechanical cycling test simulating ten years of use.Materials and Methods: 72 clasps samples were fabricated on a standardized e-max upper right first premolar; it is divided into 24 Co-Cr clasps, and 48 PEEK clasp

Role of Dermoscopy in the Assessment of Basal Cell Carcinoma

Basal cell carcinoma is one of the most common cancers in white people, with a continuous increase worldwide.Dermoscopy, a non-invasive technique, allows early diagnosis based on the presence of typical vascular structures, pigmented structures, and ulceration and the mickey mouse beach umbrella absence of specific melanocytic structures.Moreover,

Resolving repeat families with long reads

Abstract finish line thia cal Background Draft quality genomes for a multitude of organisms have become common due to the advancement of genome assemblers using long-read technologies with high error rates.Although current assemblies are substantially more contiguous than assemblies based on short reads, complete chromosomal assemblies are still ch
