This study characterized maxillary sinus mucositis (SIMS) adjacent to teeth with apical periodontitis (AP), and assessed its resolution three months after endodontic treatment. 29 subjects who maxillary posterior teeth with AP were imaged with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Resolution of SIMS was assessed with CBCT three months after treatment, and periapical healing was assessed using the PAI after six months. Four non-compliant subjects were discontinued and SIMS was identified in 14/25 subjects (56%).

The annual system shipments of fuel cells for transport applications continue to fl uctuate due to the timing of demonstration projects which contribute large numbers in one year and then little in the following years. We saw a 38% dip in annual system shipments for 2011 versus 2010, with decreases in all sub-categories except scooters. However overall unit shipments are expected to almost double in 2012 compared to 2011 and be 19% more than in 2010, led by sales of fuel cell materials handling vehicles (MHV).

Our analysis also contributes to assessing market e¢ ciency in a way that it investigates how the markets price in information about banks and how this process may di§er across di§erent types of banks. To that end, we apply a large panel of 53 EU banks using a stationary vector autoregressive (VAR) sys- tem that allows us to focus on such Örm-level e§ects. A further contribution to the literature is provided by the fact that we also want to analyse whether large banksístock prices could be a§ected by di§erent factors than small banksí stock prices.

Most of the epidemiological studies which compared breast cancer risk of active smokers to women who were not smokers (regardless of their passive smoke exposure) have found no association of smoking and breast cancer risk. But several studies found that women who smoked had a decreased breast cancer risk. It is not uncommon for epidemiological studies to come to different assessments of health risk, especially when, as in these studies, the associated risk is not large.

Control. Research suggests that an organism’s perception of control during stressful events is very important to both psychological and physical health. For example, cancer- ous tumor growth has been found to be enhanced in rats exposed to inescapable shock compared to tumor growth in rats given escapable shocks (Sklar & Anisman 1979; Vis- intainer, Volpicelli, & Seligman, 1982). Several studies have shown that increasing indi- viduals’ sense of control can have profound health implications.
