Abstract Introduction Grossly displaced membranes are characteristic of endolymphatic hydrops. The process whereby physiological membrane displacement becomes pathological may be mediated by stress, but the membrane biomechanics underlying this transition are unclear. Objective This study seeks to de...
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of varying the diameter, connection type and loading on stress distribution in the cortical bone for implants with a high crown-implant ratio. Six 3D models were simulated with the InVesalius, Rhinoceros 3D 4.0 and SolidWorks 2011 software program...
RESUMO Objetivo: verificar a relação entre grau de complexidade do cuidado de pacientes, nível de estresse e coping nos profissionais de enfermagem em unidades de internação adulto de um hospital universitário de Porto Alegre. Método: pesquisa quantitativa transversal, desenvolvida em três unid...
Objetivo: analisar as fontes estressoras em pacientes de unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal. Métodos: estudo transversal, desenvolvido em maternidade pública de referência, com 60 profissionais de enfermagem que prestaram cuidados aos 24 recém-nascidos internados. Para coleta de dados, foi utiliza...
Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the fatigue strength of different ceramic materials indicated for monolithic restorations. Disc-shaped specimens were made according to ISO 6872 from five different ceramic materials: feldspathic ceramic (FC), polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PIC), lithium disil...

ABSTRACT Objective: Evaluate changes in the force system of T-Loop Springs (TLS) preactivated by curvature, due to stress relaxation. Methods: Ninety TLSs measuring 6 x 10 mm, produced out with 0.017 x 0.025-in TMA® wire and preactived by gradual curvature, were randomly distributed into nine groups ...

Pressure ulcers are tissue damage resulting from the constant pressure on the underlying soft tissue to bony prominences for long periods. Some of the most common ulcers are developed at the ischial tuberosities area (ITs). It has been found that stresses produced in the underlying tissue to the ITs may ...
