In Vivo Assessment of Osseous Wound Healing Using a Novel Bone Putty Containing Lidocaine in the Surgical Management of Tooth Extractions by Akshay Kumarswamy, Antonio Moretti, David Paquette, Ricardo Padilla, Eric Everett, Salvador Nares

“…This preclinical pilot study evaluated the systemic, radiographic, and histological responses to bone putty containing lidocaine in a canine tooth extraction model. Methods. In five beagle dogs the right mandibular premolars were extracted and sockets grafted with (1) xenograft particulate bone and a collagen sponge plug (control), (2) bone putty alone, (3) bone putty mixed with xenograft (3 : 1), or (4) xenograft sandwiched between bone putty. …”

L’École Républicaine est-elle le fruit des idées et de valeurs protestantes ? by Anne Ruolt

“…Then, in a second step, the article analyzes the thought of Buisson in a philosophical-theological perspective, and shows from the writings of its founding philosophy, how he has resolutely rejected all of Protestantism orthodox and heterodox to found a « other party » closer to Auguste Comte that of Jean Calvin. The School of Ferry as Buisson is not it rather « daughter of an anti-dogmatic scientism »?…”

Improvement Measures for Waterlogging Prevention and Control Standards of Highly Built-up Areas by ZHANG Xiaoju, REN Dawei

“…For highly built-up urban areas,further improving the waterlogging prevention and control standards and refining the waterlogging prevention and control system with a limited land use space are problems demanding prompt investigation.Taking Shenzhen's improvement strategies for waterlogging prevention and control standards as an example,this paper analyzed the main points and applicability of several measures,including source optimization,vertical adjustment,improvement of pipe network standards,multi-aspect drainage system,diversified detention measures,and joint control of flood and waterlogging.By investigating representative basins,this paper also built a Mike Flood model to evaluate the effects of different waterlogging prevention and control schemes.The results show that an 85% reduction of waterlogging risk areas can be achieved by comprehensively applying the waterlogging prevention and control measures according to local conditions under a once-in-a-hundred-year rainstorm,indicating the efficacy of those measures.The results provide a reference for cities to develop improvement strategies for waterlogging prevention and control standards under similar conditions.…”

Beneficial Effects of Prebiotic Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mannan on Allergic Asthma Mouse Models by D. Betty Lew, Christie F. Michael, Tracie Overbeck, W. Scout Robinson, Erin L. Rohman, Jeffrey M. Lehman, Jennifer K. Patel, Brandi Eiseman, Kim S. LeMessurier, Amali E. Samarasinghe, M. Waleed Gaber

“…We have previously reported that ASM cells express a mannose receptor (ASM-MR) and that mannan derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC-MN) inhibits mannosyl-rich lysosomal hydrolase-induced bovine ASM cell proliferation. Using a humanized transgenic mouse strain (huASM-MRC2) expressing the human MRC2 receptor in a SM tissue-specific manner, we have demonstrated that ASM hyperplasia/hypertrophy can occur as early as 15 days after allergen challenge in this mouse model and this phenomenon is preventable with SC-MN treatment. …”
