We report the effect of in-pregnancy periodontal care intensity on the risk of preterm low birthweight (PLBW) births, and the role of household income in this association. Only a few studies have examined the role of socioeconomic status (SES) in the relationship between prenatal periodontal…

Lateral canals establish connection between the main root canal and periodontal ligament. The necrotic tissues and bacteria residing in the lateral canals are difficult to remove by mechanical and chemical cleaning and this influences filling the root canal efficiently and the outcome of the root…

Research motivation: There is a growing realization that the care of older people with dementia makes enormous demands on those who provide care to them. For clinicians, focus is on the assessment of impairment in memory and other cognitive functions. But for public health specialists,…

For many years, tick control was based on topical acaricide administration, using similar methodology. Hyalomma lusitanicum is one of the most abundant tick species in the Mediterranean area but no control measures have been specifically developed against it. A previous study has shown the in…

In this work, we have developed a model that permits to study the technical efficiency and the economic income of a biogas reactor designed to valorize the waste water in energy producing. A first application to waste water issued from yeast industry and to municipal…

The performance of solar collectors based on plastic hoses is noticeably improved by using a thermal-hydraulic modeling experimentally validated. This model allows us to optimize the main parameters of collector (length and diameter of hoses, tilt angle and number of glazing covers) for different climatic…

This work attempts to assess the efficiency and profitability of the greenhouse (used in agriculture) to dry agricultural products. It aims at studying and analyzing the drying of red pepper known as “Baklouti” by three different solar processes. These three drying processes enable us to…

In this research paper, the convective heat and mass transfer coefficients are evaluated for khoa drying under natural convection greenhouse mode for different sizes of khoa samples for a given mass. The khoa pieces of dimensions 0.025 × 0.02 × 0.015 m3, 0.0375 × 0.03…

The CSR online discourse practices adopted by the major companies of the Romanian energy sector have contributed to the development of a corporate social responsibility (CSR) genre.
