Superficial roughness on composite surface, composite enamel and composite dentin junctions after different finishing and polishing procedures. Part I: roughness after treatments with tungsten carbide vs diamond burs.

Int. J. Esthet. Dent. 9(1) , 70-89, (2014)

The aim of this study is to investigate different instruments for finishing composite restorations, as well as examining different surfaces and interfaces of the same restoration. The null hypothesis is represented by the fact that there are no significant di...

TGF-β1 promotes lymphangiogenesis during peritoneal fibrosis.

J. Am. Soc. Nephrol. 24(10) , 1627-42, (2013)

Peritoneal fibrosis (PF) causes ultrafiltration failure (UFF) and is a complicating factor in long-term peritoneal dialysis. Lymphatic reabsorption also may contribute to UFF, but little is known about lymphangiogenesis in patients with UFF and peritonitis. W...

Incorporation of chlorhexidine gluconate or diacetate into a glass-ionomer cement: porosity, surface roughness, and anti-biofilm activity.

Am. J. Dent. 27(6) , 318-22, (2014)

To evaluate the porosity, surface roughness and anti-biofilm activity of a glass-ionomer cement (GIC) after incorporation of different concentrations of chlorhexidine (CHX) gluconate or diacetate.For the porosity and surface roughness tests, 10 test specimens...

Does the use of biopatch devices at drain sites reduce perioperative infectious complications in patients undergoing immediate tissue expander breast reconstruction?

Plast. Reconstr. Surg. 135(1) , 9e-17e, (2015)

To decrease the rate of infectious complications, surgeons have begun to use Biopatch (Ethicon, Somerville, N.J.) disks at drain exit sites. The authors investigated whether use of a Biopatch disk could convey a reduction in perioperative infections in patien...

Chlorhexidine gluconate-impregnated central-line dressings and necrosis in complicated skin disorder patients.

J. Crit. Care 29(6) , 1130.e1-4, (2014)

Although chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) disks have been shown to help reduce the incidence of central line-associated blood stream infections, their use can result in local skin necrosis. The effects of CHG disks on patients with complex skin pathology have no...

Data bits: take a swipe at surgical site infections.

Ky. Nurse 62(2) , 3, (2014)

Influence of mounthrinse solutions on the color stability and microhardness of a composite resin.

Int. J. Esthet. Dent. 9(2) , 238-46, (2014)

The aim of the present study was to evaluate three mouth rinse solutions' (Plax, Listerine and Periogard) influence on the microhardness and color stability of a composite resin (Esthet.X, Dentsply).For this purpose, forty specimens were prepared, being 10 sp...

Effects of food colouring added to 2% chlorhexidine gluconate and 70% alcohol for surgical site antisepsis.

J. Perioper. Pract. 23(11) , 255-7, (2013)

Preoperative cleansing of a patient's skin with chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) in alcohol is superior to cleansing with povidone-iodine for preventing surgical site infection (SSI) after clean-contaminated surgery (Darouilche et al 2010). However, 2% CHG in 70...
