Abstract Objective This study investigated the effects of abutment screw withdrawal after conical abutment settlement on the stability of the implant–abutment connection. Material and methods Twenty implants of a conical connection system were used. Two two‐piece abutment designs were used: cone only (n = 10; NI) and cone plus octagonal index design (n = 10; I); for each design, five samples were used with (S) and without (NS) abutment screw withdrawal before a cyclic test. Finally, four...

Spontaneous rupture of the spleen in malarial infection or malarial splenic rupture (MSR) is a rare but life-threatening condition complicating severe malarial infection in tropics and subtropics, and hence it deserves special attention. A high index of clinical suspicion is warranted for the early diagnosis as delayed or missed diagnosis can be potentially fatal. We report on a 32-year-old male who was diagnosed with severe Plasmodium falciparum infection and presented with an acute abdomen due...

Abstract Aims/hypothesis Ovarian cancer (OC) is a malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Emerging evidence has shown that long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are new regulators for prognosis, diagnosis and targeted therapy of cancers. Therefore, our purpose is to investigate the possible regulatory role of EPB41L4A‐AS2 in the progression of OC. Methods Initially, EPB41L4A‐AS2 expression in OC tissues and matched paracancerous tissues was determined. Then the RNA crosstalk among EPB41L4A‐AS2,...

Here, the authors evaluate hypoxic cells using a fate mapping approach and identify a distinct gene expression profile of cells exposed to intratumoral hypoxia and show that post-hypoxic tumor cells have an ROS-resistant phenotype enabling metastasis in vivo.
Nature Communications, Published online: 24 October 2019; doi:10.1038/s41467-019-12813-2Three-dimensional invisibility cloaks are either limited in bandwidth or disregard the phase of the impinging wave or work only in specific directions. Here, the authors report that these restrictions can be lifted by using cloaks made of fast-light media where the wave group velocity is larger than the speed of light in vacuum.

Abstract Predation is a ubiquitous and strong selective pressure on living organisms. Transparency is a predation defence widespread in water but rare on land. Some Lepidoptera display transparent patches combined with already cryptic opaque patches. A recent study showed that transparency reduced detectability of aposematic prey with conspicuous patches. However, whether transparency has any effect at reducing detectability of already cryptic prey is still unknown. We conducted field predation...
