Overall Vertical Height Changes (Point 1) The mean vertical height of the zenith point (point 1) showed a trend to negatively change slightly ( p = 0.692) from baseline to 6 months of −0.48 mm (±0.52), which corresponds to a recession of the mucosal margin of 0.48 mm.
The Δ E j -a j curve has a Z-shape, with a monotonically decreasing Δ E j -a j curve before the EPB point and a monotonically increasing Δ E j -a j curve after the EPB point until the FS point when it starts to show a decreasing trend.
This suggests that the dilution effect upon surface texturization was present and was quite significant for concentrations below 2 wt. %, which is in fact consistent with the threshold concentration of 1 wt. % ( Figure 3 ) considering a roughness factor close to 3 for lotus.
At the same GFS content, with the increase in the specific surface area of the GFS powder, the total hydration heat release and hydration heat release rate showed an increasing trend.
Interestingly, with the increase in the refractive index n , the sensitivity and FOM of the three Quasi BICs all illustrated an increasing trend, which verified that the interaction between the medium around the metasurface and the electric field is enhanced with the increase in the refractive index n .
There is a clear trend that the thickness of the TiO 2 thin films decreased from 140 nm to about 80 nm with an increasing annealing temperature from 400 °C to 600 °C.
Osteoblasts showed an increasing trend in the scaffolds and pore plates of all groups, and the number of cells reached the highest on day 5 ( Figure 8 A).
When the addition of Na 2 SO 4 dosage exceeded 3%, its UCS showed a decreasing trend, probably because the Na 2 SO 4 that did not participate in the reaction remained in the pores of the PCCPB samples and produced sulfate erosion of the hydration products later [ 46 ].
In the laser polishing process, including laser reciprocating scanning and the sample moving slowly on the platform, the interaction of two-factor AB, BC, and BD has a highly significant impact, which is recorded as “***”.
With the increase of Cl − concentration, the corrosion rate shows a trend of increasing and then decreasing, which in Cl − concentration less than 10,000 mg/L, with the increase of Cl − concentration, the corrosion rate increases, while in Cl − concentration higher than 10,000 mg/L, the corrosion rate shows a decreasing trend; this is because with the increase of Cl − concentration, O content will be reduced, thus hindering the corrosion process.
The size and SDAS of the dendritic structure at positions S 1 , 1 x y to S 1 , 7 x y and S 2 , 1 x y to S 2 , 7 x y show an increasing trend; from the principles of solidification, it can be inferred that during the melting and casting processes, positions S 1 , 1 x y and S 2 , 1 x y are close to the mold wall and their heat diffuses rapidly outward, promoting a corresponding faster cooling rate.
This is a highly significant finding that provides additional clinical evidence that Osseodensification increases clinician confidence and predictability during immediate implant placement.
