Influence Of Denervation And Hemithyroidectomy On The Age Related Increase In The Number Of Calcitonin-Containing Cells In Mouse Thyroid, Nualnoi Wechbanjong
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
It has been concluded from this study that nerve fibers in the superior laryngeal nerves have an influence on the development of C-cells in the mouse thyroid. This conclusion is based on the results of two types of investigation. The first is an analysis of the effect of age on the number of C-cells and the second is an investigation of the influence of denervation and hemithyroid-parathyroidectomy on the age related changes in C-cells numbers.
I. The distribution and c011centraticn of C-cells in mouse thyroid at various ages.

Stress Analysis Of Post And Crown Restorations Of Endodontically Treated Teeth, Ronald C. Hansen
Stress Analysis Of Post And Crown Restorations Of Endodontically Treated Teeth, Ronald C. Hansen
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
Forty-four similar sized maxillary lateral incisor teeth were randomly divided into four equal groups to test their resistance to fracture. Group 1 teeth were the controls, no treatment was done. Group 2 teeth consisted of endodontically treated teeth, restored with composite resin in the access opening. Group 3 teeth were endodontically treated and restored with a post and flat surface standardized aluminum crown. The teeth in Group 4 were endodontically treated and restored with a post and composite resin core buildup with a cast gold crown. The metal collar of gold incorporated 1.5 mm of tooth structure below the core …
A Study Of Treatment And Cephalometric Variables In Relation To Facial Axis Change During Treatment In A Dolichofacial Sample, Laurence A. Seifert
A Study Of Treatment And Cephalometric Variables In Relation To Facial Axis Change During Treatment In A Dolichofacial Sample, Laurence A. Seifert
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
The change in the facial axis in a sample of fifth-three dolichofacial patients, was compared with a number of pretreatment cephalometric variables. A number of treatment variables were also compared with the amount of facial axis change that occurred during orthodontic treatment.
The cephalometric variables measured were:
- Facial axis
- Upper face height (maxillary height)
- Lower face height
- Posterior face height
- Mandibular arc
- Palatal-mandibular plane
- Palatal-occlusal plane
- Occlusal-mandibular plane
- Overbite
- Upper first molar to palatal plane
- Lower first molar to mandibular plane
- Lower incisor to mandibular plane
- Incisal edge of lower incisor to mandibular plane
- Xi point to occlusal plane
