Abstract Purpose This study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and digital intraoral radiography for the detection of proximal caries adjacent to amalgam, e.max porcelain, Low Calorie Sparkling Wine and metal-ceramic restorations (MCRs).Materials and methods Parallel intraoral radiographs were obtained f
Genetic appraisal of F2 generation of Dolichos bean for yield and yield attributing traits
In the present study F2 generation was evaluated for yield and yield contributing traits to understand genetic variability and association among yield contributing traits in dolichos bean.High phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variability (PCV and GCV) was observed for first flowering initiation and total seed weight per plant in both the Sma
Meta-Analysis of NOS3 G894T Polymorphisms with Air Pollution on the Risk of Ischemic Heart Disease Worldwide
The purpose of this updated meta-analysis was to investigate the effect of nitric oxide synthase-3 (NOS3) G894T polymorphisms, air pollution and their interaction on ischemic heart disease (IHD) risk across populations worldwide.Recursive partition trees, nonlinear association curve fit and geographic information system maps were incorporated to ve
PDL1 expression is a poor-prognosis factor in soft-tissue sarcomas
Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) are a group of rare, heterogeneous, and aggressive tumors, with high metastatic risk and relatively few efficient systemic therapies.In the quest for new treatments, the immune system represents an attractive therapeutic target.Recently, PD1/PDL1 inhibitors showed very promising results in patients with solid tumors.PDL1
