REOPTIMIZATION OF BONE CAPITAL THROUGH DENTAL IMPLANTS AND BONE GRAFTS by Cretu Ionut Cosmin, Agop-Forna Doriana, Adam Eduard, Budau Corina, Abiculesei Alexandra, Pascal Cristina, Forna Norina

“…The restoration of a functional condition involves the use of endosseous implants who require adequate bone volume, to deal with the masticatory load. In such situations the bone need to be regenerated, taking advantage of the biological principles of osteogenesis, osteoinduction and osteoconduction. …”

Prediction of Stope Stability Using Variable Weight and Unascertained Measurement Technique by Qian Kang, Yunmin Wang, Shuwen Zhang, Chengzhi Pu, Chuxuan Zhang

“…In this model, an evaluation index system by virtue of the 7 most important factors is established, including rock saturated uniaxial compressive strength, rock quality designation, rock joint and fissure, stope span, condition of pillar, groundwater seepage volume, and rate of supporting pit roof. And each index is divided into 5 grades by assignment value and the classification method of standardization. …”

Preparation of Pore-Size Controllable Activated Carbon from Rice Husk Using Dual Activating Agent and Its Application in Supercapacitor by Khu Le Van, Thuy Luong Thi Thu

“…At the same amount of total alkali hydroxide, the KOH/NaOH ratio higher than 1.33 resulted in larger specific surface area (2990∼3043 m2·g−1), microporous surface area (2747∼2831 m2·g−1), and higher micropore volume (1.4250∼1.4316 cm3·g−1). The as-prepared samples exist in the form of spherical-shaped particles with the size ranging from 20 to 60 nm and contain numerous surface functional groups. …”

Comparison of Gastric Emptying Time after the Ingestion of Whisky with Isocalorically Adjusted Glucose Solution by Tadashi Okabe, Hideo Terashima, Atsuhiro Sakamoto

“…Therefore, we performed the present study to compare gastric emptying times between whisky mixed with water and glucose solution with uniform energy contents and volumes. As a crossover study, 10 healthy male volunteers ingested one of 3 test solutions with a uniform volume of 150 ml, i.e., whisky with water-containing whisky 30 ml (67 kcal), sugar water containing glucose 16.8 g (67 kcal), and water (0 kcal), and the gastric emptying time of each beverage was then assessed by ultrasound measurements of the gastric antral cross-sectional area. …”
