OPTIMIZING THE BIODEGRADABILITY AND OSTEOGENESIS OF BIOGENIC COLLAGEN MEMBRANE VIA FLUORIDE-MODIFIED POLYMER-INDUCED LIQUID PRECURSOR PROCESS

Optimizing the biodegradability and osteogenesis of biogenic collagen membrane via fluoride-modified polymer-induced liquid precursor process

Biogenic collagen membranes (BCM) have been widely used in guided bone regeneration (GBR) owing to their biodegradability during tissue integration.However, their relatively high degradation rate and lack of pro-osteogenic properties limit their clinical outcomes.It is of great importance to endow BCM with tailored degradation as well as pro-osteog

Does the Drug Facts Label for nonprescription drugs meet its design objectives? A new procedure for assessing label effectiveness

We demonstrate an expanded procedure for assessing drug-label comprehension.Innovations include a pretest of drug preconceptions, verbal ability and label attentiveness measures, a label-scanning task, a free-recall test, category-clustering measures, and preconception-change scores.In total, 55 female and 39 male undergraduates read a facsimile Dr
