Four hundred seventy-six root canal therapy cases (amounting to a total of 1 005 root canals) were examined. The anatomy risk factors assessed in each case included: tooth type (tooth location), root canal curvature, and root canal calcification, as well as endodontic retreatment. The investigation examined the correlation between each of these anatomic factors and the working length, with statistical analysis consisting of Chi-square tests and multiple logistic regression analysis. In an independent factor analysis, tooth type (tooth iocation), root canal curvature, canal calcification, and endodontic retreatment were determined to be the primary risk factors. In a multiple-factor regression model, root curvature and canal calcification were found to most significantly influence root canal working length accessibility (P〈0.05). Root canal anatomy increases the difficulty of root canal preparation. Appropriate consideration of tooth anatomy will assist in accurate determination of preparation difficulty before instrumentation. This study alerts clinical therapists to anatomical factors influencing the working length accessibility, and allows for a direct estimate of success rate given in situ measurements of tooth factors during the root canal treatment procedure.展开更多

Research has indicated that these situations may be associated with work-related stress and the onset of depressive disorders among nursing staff. Aim & Objective: To investigate length of service in relation to occupational stress levels among nurses working in an emergency department, and develop interventions to reduce stress. Methods: A cross-sectional study using a survey was conducted among nurses(N=79) working in the emergency department of one hospital. Occupational stress was measured using the Symptom Checklist 90(SCL-90). Results: Respondents were categorized according to their length of service. Length of service was categorized as follows: group A, <1 year(n=16); group B, between 1 and 5 years(n=31); group C, between 5 and 10 years(n=20); and group D, >10 years(n=12). Group A reported more somatic and anxiety symptoms and a higher total symptom score on the SCL-90 compared with the normal group(p<0.05). Nurses who had worked for longer than 1 year scored above mid-score on all the SCL-90 subscales except on the interpersonal sensitivity and phobic anxiety subscales(p<0.05). There was no difference between groups B, C and D groups for total SCL-90 score. Conclusion: Nurses who had worked for >1 year in the emergency department experienced more work-related stress than the general population. Further research on suitable interventions for the management of occupational stress in nurses working in emergency departments is required.展开更多

The shear stress distribution of full-length grouted bolts is analyzed based on the stress-strain relationship among the bolt, grout, rock mass and bond interface,considering the shear properties of the grout and contact interface bonding behavior. In this case, the interfacial shear stress of the grout and rock mass and the bolt axial force are obtained under pull-out and normal working conditions. The results show that the peak shear stress of the interface with the shear deformation of the bond interface is significantly lower than that without it when the pull-out force is applied. When designing bolt parameters of grade IV and V rock mass, the relative deformation between the rock mass and anchor should be considered, with a “unimodal” to “bimodal” shear stress distribution.In the case of a low elastic modulus of rock masses,both the shear stress concentration and distribution range are obvious, and the neutral point is near the bolt head. As the elastic modulus increases, the shear stress concentration and distribution range are reduced, and the neutral point moves towards the distal end. As a result, the optimum length of fulllength grouted bolts can be determined by in-situ pull-out tests and decreases with the increased elastic modulus of the rock mass.展开更多

Considering long porous tubes the irrigation uniformity of porous tubes was studied by analyzing the deviation rate of the working head of porous tubes and through an impact analysis of the deviation ratio of flow rate based on laying length slope pressure head and perforation spacing. Results showed that the deviation ratio of the flow rate could be reduced by decreasing the length of tubes and increasing the slope. The deviation ratio of flow rate was less influenced by pressure head and perforation spacing. A best laid slope resulted in a longer laying length of the porous tubes and they were not constant.展开更多
