The Implant-Bone Interface: Biologic and Biomechanical Perspectives
Abstract: Tissue integration at the interface of healed functioning dental implants occurs in three possible modes. Before examining mainstream step-by-step treatment, it is important to know what these three modes are, and how they differ. The practitioner determines and controls the mode of tissue integration. This article carefully examines the physiology, biomechanics, and clinical considerations associated with each of the three modes of tissue integration. Keywords: Osseointegration, Osteopreservation, Osteoconduction, Distance Osteogenesis, …

Factors Affecting Residual Ridge Resorption: a Literature Review
Abstract: Residual ridge is a term used to define the shape of the alveolar ridge after healing of bone and soft tissue after tooth extraction. Patients suffering from long-standing edentulism commonly suffer from this incapacitating problem, especially in the mandible. As it causes physiologic, physical, and economic problems to patients, the cause of ridge resorption needs to be identified. Residual Ridge Resorption is a progressive, irreversible disease, as a result of …

Thyroid Abscess: Presentation and Management: A Case Report in Adult Patient
Abstract: Introduction: Thyroid abscess is an uncommon condition. This is due to: 1) anatomical factors in the form of rich blood supply and well developed capsule; and 2) physiological factors such as high iodine content. Both Acute Suppurative Thyroiditis (AST) and thyroid abscess represent 0.1 to 0.7% of the thyroid lesions managed surgically. Aim: To raise the clinical suspicion of this condition among clinicians so that it can be diagnosed early …

Experimental Study on Cyanoacrylate as Wound Adhesive
Abstract: Cyanoacrylates (CAs) have been widely used as surgical glues; however, the high cost of medical CA-based glues limits their use in developing countries. Another possible alternative is the low cost α-CAs which are normally used in commercial glues. The lack of toxicity studies of such agents is considered the main obstacle in their medical application. In the present study, we have evaluated the toxicity profile of commercial glue in comparison …

Model Optimisation of Waterflood and Low Salinity Brine Injection to Enhance Gas Condensate Recovery – A Case Study of A Rich Gas Condensate Sandstone Reservoir in The Offshore Tano Basin of Ghana
Abstract: To enhance production of entrapped condensate in gas-condensate reservoirs without delay in produced gas sales, this study looked at the impact of waterflood and low saline brine injection on an offshore gascondensate reservoir in the Tano Basin, Ghana, West-Africa. The injector well placements, rate, and pressure were optimised using three optimisers (Differential Evolution, Particle Swarm Optimisation, Design Exploration and Controlled Evolution). Condensate and gas recovery increased by 30.3% (from 19.1% …
