Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the fracture resistance (RF) of Class II Glass-ionomer Cement (GIC) ART restorations with and without proximal retentions. Material and Methods: 20 freshly extracted human molars were used. Forty (40) standard Mesial-Occlusal (MO) and Distal-Occlusal (DO) preparations (20 for each material) were performed with a 245 bur. The unprepared surfaces of the teeth were protected with nail polish and the specimens submerged in 0.5Mol EDTA solution, pH 7.4 for 8h under stirring. The preparations were finished with dentine spoons and 50% received proximal retention with # 3 excavators. 20 cavities were restored with Chemfil Rock (10 with retention and 10 without retention) and 20 cavities were restored with Equia Fil (10 with retention and 10 with no retention) and were stored in an oven at 37ºC and 100% relative humidity for 24h and submitted to axial compression loading in Test Machine - EMIC at a rate of 0.5 mm / minute, until restoration fracture occurred. The values were analyzed by two-way ANOVA (p<0.05). Results: ChemFil Rock presented 300.84 (69.20) (without retention) and 361.70 (81.08) (with retention) and Equia Fil showed 314.60 (69.97) (without retention) and 366.67 (103.38) (with retention). Data obtained with retention were statistically superior to those obtained with non-retained ART restorations (p=0.014). No statistical differences were detected between materials (p=0.761). Conclusion: Retentive grooves improved fracture resistance of Class II GIC ART restorations. KeywordsDental materials; ART; Glass ionomer cements.

Abstract:
This Article focuses on the failure of abolition and of death penalty reform in Japan in order to illustrate contingencies in the trajectory of capital punishment in the modern world. Part I describes three facts about postwar Japan that help explain why it retains capital punishment today: a missed opportunity for abolition during the American occupation of the country after World War II; the long-term rule of a conservative political party; and economic and geopolitical power that has enabled the country to resist the influence of international norms. Part II describes a few ways in which Japanese capital punishment has changed in recent years— and many ways in which it has not. Part III focuses on four causes of continuity in capital punishment in Japan: the rarity of exonerations in Japanese criminal justice; a jurisprudence that does not treat death as a special form of criminal punishment requiring extra safeguards for criminal defendants in capital cases; a high degree of secrecy surrounding executions and capital sentencing; and a society in which race is not regarded as a salient factor in the administration of capital punishment. Part IV suggests how reform in Japanese capital punishment might be accomplished by challenging some of the causes of continuity. Part V concludes by observing that the road to death penalty reform is not merely a positive path requiring leadership from the front in the face of public support for the institution. It is also a negative path leading away from beliefs and practices that present obstacles to the institution’s diminution and abrogation.

Abstract:
This study aimed to examine the retentive characteristics of each retentive element material and the effects from thermocycling using the two implant-retained mandibular overdenture model. Two stud abutments and three retentive element materials; nylon, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polyvinylsiloxane (PVS) were used in this study. Four tested groups, with a total of 40 overdentures, were fabricated, including a Locator® abutment with nylon retention insert (NY), Novaloc® abutment with PEEK retention insert (PK), Locator® abutment with PVS retention insert (RL), and Novaloc® abutment with PVS retention insert (RN). The retentive force (N) was measured before thermocycling, and at 2500, 5000, and 10,000 cycles after thermocycling. Significant changes in the percentage of retention loss were found in the NY and PK groups (p < 0.05) at 6 and 12 months for the RL group (p < 0.05) after artificial aging. The RN group exhibited a constant retentive force (p > 0.05). The tendency of the percentage of retention loss significantly increased for PEEK, nylon, and PVS silicone over time. The results of the present study implied that retentive element materials tend to lose their retentive capability as a result of thermal undulation and water dispersion. Nylon and PEEK, comprising strong polar groups in polymer chains, showed a higher rate of retention loss than polyvinylsiloxane.

Abstract:
Retention of the fetal membranes in the uterus beyond the term is called retention of the placenta (Retentio placentae, s. Retentio secondinarum). The disease often occurs in ruminant animals and mainly in cows. If the placenta does not descend naturally, it is separated 24-28 hours after the birth of the fetus in cows. Complete, incomplete, partial retention of the placenta is distinguished. Currently, conservative and operative methods of treatment of retained placenta are used in production practice.

Abstract:
Background/Aim: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of mechanical and chemical denture cleansing methods on dental attachments of varying retention with a scanning electron microscope. Material and Methods: An implant analog and a male part of a dental attachment were embedded into an acrylic block, and an abutment was screwed onto the analog. Different locator attachments with varying retention were tested using different denture cleansing methods and tap water for a time simulating 12 months of clinical use. A pull-out test was performed for each attachment, followed by analysis of the samples with a scanning electron microscope. Results: For the blue attachment group, there was no statistically significant difference between the retention values of control and chemical and mechanical denture cleansing groups (p>0.05). The clear and pink attachments were affected by chemical and mechanical denture cleansing, and had significantly decreased retention values compared to the control group (p<0.05). For both types of attachments, the mechanical cleansing group exhibited the lowest retention loss value. Scanning electron microscopy results showed that surface irregularities, scratch lines, and deformations were detected in chemical and mechanical denture cleansing groups for all types of retentive attachments. Conclusions: Both attachment systems with different retentions were influenced by the denture cleansing method. Considering the results, clinicians could recommend the most appropriate method to patients, one that does not adversely affect the properties of the retainer parts. Clinicians should not advise using mechanical and chemical denture cleansing methods to protect the long-term retention of pink and clear attachments.

Abstract:
Abstract. To a large extent, the invertebrate fauna in wooded streams rely upon detritus inputs from the surrounding vegetation as their main food source. Conifer plantations may alter the timing and nutritional quality of leaf inputs into streams, but detritus retention may also be reduced. While it has often been assumed that conifer needles are retained less than broadleaved species, this has never been tested experimentally. This study describes the results of a leaf release experiment carried out in a small headwater stream, comparing the retention of pine needles and oak leaves (wet and dry) over a range of discharges. In addition, retention was compared before and after placing logs in the stream to examine the effect of woody debris on retention efficiency. Retention efficiency was significantly different among the three leaf types tested with wet oak leaves being most retentive, followed by dry oak leaves with dry pine needles being least retentive. Retention efficiency declined significantly with increasing discharge for all three leaf types. The addition of logs increased the retention of dry oak leaves and pine needles, but not wet oak leaves. The predominant features (stones, logs, eddies and bankside vegetation) that accounted for retention varied with discharge and the leaf type used. The results indicate that while conifer needles may be inherently less retentive than broadleaves, the presence of woody debris within the stream channel increases their retention. However, this small-scale study would need to be expanded to investigate the retention dynamics of conifer needles in plantation streams. Nevertheless, management strategies that allow the formation of woody debris accumulations in plantation streams could be valuable in enhancing detritus retention and consequently could benefit invertebrate communities.

Full text
Abstract:
Objective: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the retentive behavior of implant-supported overdenture using two different attachment systems (locator and milled bar-clip attachment system). Methods: Six edentulous mandibular models were fabricated from cold‑cure PMMA; the denture-bearing area of the acrylic resin model was covered by an approximately 1.5 mm thick silicone resilient liner to simulate mucosa. The Study models were divided into three groups: Model A (locator), Model B (milled bar-clip attachment system without extension), and Model C (milled bar-clip attachment system with 1cm extension). However, for each study model, a complete mandibular denture was constructed. Anterior, posterior, and central dislodging forces were measured by digital force gauge at the beginning of the study (Initial retention) and after 540 courses of consecutive pulling and inserting the prosthesis (final retention), which was to simulate six months of overdenture use assuming three daily removals and insertions for oral hygiene practice. Results: There were statistically significant differences in retention between the group models, and milled bar-clips attachment systems revealed the highest retentive capacity. However, after six months of simulated use, there was a significant retention loss; retention of Model B recorded the highest percentage loss of 55.1%, while Model A recorded the most minor retention loss of 24%. Conclusions: The bar and clip attachment system offered higher retentive values than the locator attachment system. However, the retention loss was correlated to the particular attachment system, and the bar–clip attachment systems had the highest percent of retention loss. In contrast, the locator attachments were associated with acceptable retention, simplicity, and minimal retention.

Abstract:
Background. Many patients suffer from lack of retention of conventional mandibular overdentures due to loss of clip retention over time. Computer-aided design-computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) milled polyether ether ketone (PEEK) materials may be used for the construction of retentive housing and clips for improving retention of implant-supported overdentures. Objective. To compare retention and patient satisfaction of implant-supported mandibular overdentures retained by conventional nylon clip and metal housings for ball attachments versus PEEK clip and housings. Methods. Twenty-two participants were divided into 2 equal groups (n = 11). The conventional group received implant-supported mandibular overdentures retained by metal housings and nylon retentive elements, while the PEEK group received implant-supported mandibular overdentures retained by PEEK retentive elements and housings. The PEEK retentive elements were made using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM). The evaluation included measuring the retention by applying a gradual pulling up force by force meter and patient satisfaction with a 7-point visual analog scale (VAS) at overdenture insertion and 3, 6, and 12 months subsequently by a research interviewer. Results. The PEEK group showed statistically significantly increased retention force ( P < 0.05 ) at the time of insertion (37.6/17.79) and after 3 months (33.9/16.78), 6 months (32.7/15.97), and 12 months (31.65/13.05). The conventional group had a statistically significantly higher mean overall satisfaction ( P < 0.05 ) at the time of insertion (65/82.18). No statistically significant difference was found after 3 months (87.81/84.72). The PEEK group showed statistically significantly higher mean overall satisfaction ( P < 0.05 ) after 6 months (86.36/80.18) and 12 months (85.45/79.54). Conclusions. According to the results of this study, the PEEK retentive material provided more retention than did the conventional material and led to improved patient satisfaction. The study was registered at clinical trials.gov (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05079048).

Abstract:
Twenty years ago, kindergarten was a year of informal education designed to help a child develop some readiness skills, adjust to school, adjust socially and learn through play. Readiness for elementary education was defined in terms of attitude and motivation rather than in specific academic achievements. The hazards of the academic model for young children is supported by recent research. Elkind (1986), for example, confirms that young children do not learn in the same ways as older children and adults. Because the world of things, people, and language is so new to infants and young children, they learn best through direct encounters with their world rather than through formal education. During the '80s there has been an increase in the number of high-risk children entering kindergarten who may not be ready for that experience. Perhaps in response to this trend, kindergarten, rather than serving as a readiness program for future schooling, has become an experience for which children need to be prepared entering kindergarten. The National Association of Early Childhood (1987) notes that expectations have become increasingly high and unrealistic, as the curriculum from upper grades has been pushed down to lower levels, thus doom large numbers of young children to the increased possibility of failure. As a result of this change, there has been quite a controversy over the policy of kindergarten retention. Although grade retention is widely practiced at all levels, research suggests that it does not help children to "catch up." While retained children may appear to do better in the short term, they are at much greater risk for failure than are their non-retained peers (Shepard and Smith, 1990). The provision of an extra year of schooling prior to first grade is intended to protect unprepared children from entering too soon into a demanding academic environment where, 'it is thought, they will almost surely experience failure. Yet Shepard and Smith (1988) note that, "depending on the philosophical basis of kindergarten retention, which differs profoundly from one district to the next, the extra year is meant either to be a time for immature children to grow and develop learning readiness or a time to work on deficient prereading skills" (p. 34). So the criteria by which retention decisions are made are critical. The question of which criteria determine a child's kindergarten retention becomes paramount. The study examines this question by addressing the following issues: 1. Current practices regarding kindergarten retention;2. The percentage of kindergartners retained each year (locally and statewide); 3. The effects of kindergarten retention; 4. The ways in which teacher pressure, parents, standardized tests, and basal reading programs contribute to kindergarten retention; and 5. Alternatives to kindergarten retention. There will always be a group of children who lag behind their kindergarten classmates. Before we create a new program, however, we need to examine the effects of kindergarten retention. It is the intent of this study to provide county school supervisors and others with information which would enable them to take action to reverse the negative effects of past practices. This information can assist those responsible for decision-making as they struggle to make the correct decisions regarding the placement of young children.

Abstract:
Student persistence and retention within the higher education system has been a concern on a broad scale and on a university scale for a long time. Information systems have only just begun to gain traction as another solution for student retention, but they are being proven to be extremely effective. Traditional retention methods such as academic assistance, skills training, student clubs, and other on-campus resources can only go so far. Student retention information systems offer a new dimension within university student retention: these information systems gather, analyze, and report persistence data to academic advisors, professors, and other faculty and staff so that university representatives can proactively help students who are at-risk of dropout or academic failure. Traditionally, these support systems have only been able to identify at-risk students based on academics –but there is much more to persistence. Student retention systems enable parties around campus to identify at-risk students based on metrics far beyond academic success. These systems also offer collaboration between supporters, so advisors are armed with a multitude of information before intervention. I believe that CampusLabs offers an excellent student retention system, Beacon, which will help our university improve academically, financially, and socially through improved student retention.

Abstract:
Mineral pigments are added to paper with the aim of improving its optical and printing properties. The colloidal behavior of calcium carbonate filler shows a dependence on the quality of water used in suspensions, presence of dissolved and colloidal substances and type of polymer used as a retention aid. The role of the retention aids is to attach colloidal particles, such as fines and mineral pigments, to pulp fibers before or during the paper is made. Two very different single-component retention aids were utilized in calcium carbonate fillers destabilization and deposition on fibers. Cationic polyethylenimine destabilized or facilitated deposition of the filler on fibers by a charge neutralization mechanism while cationic polyacrylamide flocculated or deposited the filler on fibers via a bridging mechanism.
In the presence of anionic dissolved and colloidal substances, the amount of cationic polyacrylamide had to be increased in order to achieve the same degree of pigment flocculation. The reason for the increase was due to the fact that the cationic polyacrylamide formed a polyelectrolyte complex with the anionic substances, namely sulfonated kraft lignin. The reaction between cationic polyacrylamide and lignin was found to be nearly stoichiometric. Low molecular weight cationic polyacrylamide formed mostly colloidal complexes while high molecular weight cationic polyacrylamide formed predominantly coacervate complexes; this was mainly due to differences in characteristic times of lignin association with the cationic polyacrylamide, clustering of polyacrylamide molecules and reconformation of polymer chains.
The performance of two-component retention aid systems consisting of a cationic polyacrylamide and anionic microparticles were evaluated by deposition of calcium carbonate filler on pulp fibers. Kaolin clay and bentonite were used to heteroflocculate polyacrylamide-covered surfaces of the fibers and pigment. Due to their inability to delaminate, kaolin clay and acid-treated montmorillonite showed no effect of calcium carbonate filler deposition. After cation exchange with sodium-rich solutions, which caused the montmorillonite to delaminate, the montmorillonite flocculation efficiency considerably improved. Kaolin clay neither delaminated after the cation exchange nor improved calcium carbonate deposition. Bentonite was found to completely delaminate when using polyacrylamide-treated fibers. When added to a suspension of fibers, filler and cationic polyacrylamide, bentonite was found to be in a form of stacks containing on average four platelets.
An alternative way to paper filling with pigment was tested on stationary sheets and on slow and fast Fourdrinier pilot paper machines. Using a secondary headbox on the pilot paper machines, a high degree of loading (above 30%) could be achieved using positive clay or calcium carbonate fillers. However, the fillers lowered the paper strength as they interfered with the fiber-fiber bonding in a similar fashion found in conventionally filled papers.

Abstract:
Microparticulate retention aids, consisting of a high molecular weight polymer used in conjunction with inorganic microparticles, are widely used to improve the process colloid retention in papermaking. Such additives are generally introduced to the paper stock prior to the web formation, so that fines and fillers are flocculated and retained into the forming web. This study investigated the mechanism of fines and filler retention under the high shear typical of papermaking. Retention and drainage were optimized using the newly built Laboratory Twin Former. The variables of interest include the concentrations of a cationic polyacrylamide polymer (CPAM) and bentonite, and their residence times with the furnish. The former variables provide information for optimal bridging efficiency between the furnish components, while the latter variables indicate the appropriate location for adding the retention aid to reach maximum retention. The experimental results indicated that the bridging theory well predicts a maximum retention when only CPAM is used. For the microparticulate system, a longer residence time of bentonite in the furnish is preferable so that the fines retention improves by allowing sufficient time for colloids coagulation and by promoting bentonite deposition on the polymer coated fines. We also studied the mechanism of fines retention and quantified the drainage rate at the jet impingement region, with and without retention aids. By individually varying the jet velocity and the jet angle, the two velocity components of the jet, i.e. VjetX and VjetY were controlled. The slice opening and the wire velocity were kept constant. For the range investigated, the drainage force proportional to V jetY had little effect on fines retention or drainage. A high shear impact on the wire by increasing the jet velocity, and consequently by augmenting VjetX relative to the wire speed, reduced the fines retention and restricted the drainage rate.

Full text
Abstract:
Student retention has become a serious topic in the past several decades (Wild and Ebbers, 2002). Problematic, however, is how retention is defined and measured, as well as a lack of multi-institutional studies that support a theoretical model for improving student retention, particularly in community colleges (Bailey & Alfonso, 2005). The Community College Survey of Student Engagement (CCSSE) was launched in 2001. Based on extensive research that pertains to student learning and persistence, CCSSE defined five benchmarks of educational practice. Three of the benchmarks comprise the Retention Index. CCSSE has encouraged additional studies to further validate the relatively new survey instrument. Florida's legislature has a keen interest in the performance of educational institutions which are mandated by statute to participate in system-wide data collection from which accountability measures are drawn, including institutional retention rates. Using institutional level data in simple and multiple linear regressions, this study examined the relationship between the Florida Community Colleges' CCSSE Retention Indices and their retention rate(s) measured by the Florida Accountability Measure. Student level data was also analyzed using a Nested ANOVA to examine mean differences in CCSSE Retention Index scores of students from different racial and gender groups when accounting for the possible influence of institution attended.

Abstract:
In the late 1980s, in Britain, teacher retention was an important issue in public education, with inner city schools suffering most from teachers' unwillingness to be retained. Most labour market studies, even those written about teachers, concentrate on the 'demand side' : there are few empirical studies of the supply side. Those researched from the perspective of the employees themselves are rare. A literature search yielded three main categories of supply side job satisfactions : groupings of 0 intrinsic, extrinsic and contextual factors. A research approach was developed to establish the significance and stability of such factors in teaching. The method was one of refinement from qualitative exploration to quantitative explanation. The field work began with an analysis of student writings about their most valued experiences in informal educational settings, continued with interviews with four head teachers and tested the abstracted satisfaction characteristics with two populations : trainee teachers and established teachers. The retention factors identified were adequate resources, colleagues, community support and the feeling of doing a worthwhile job allowing for personal and professional development, in the 0 context of stable educational policy. Results were obtained by correlation and principal components analysis. A contrast is drawn between quit factors and stay factors. This analysis focuses on the collegiate nature of schools and teaching. Experienced tea6hers concur, extending this collegiality towards 00 relationships with the community through parents and governing bodies. Gender is found to be a b consistent correlate. The conclusion discusses retention and motivation in the light of the findings. Retention policies are found to omit the professional concerns of teachers. In effect, evidence of vocationalism challenges the dependence of retention on extrinsic as distinct from intrinsic and contextual factors. Gender seems to be systematically ignored by employers, particularly in attempts to proletarianise teaching, despite the statistical evidence that it is a ferninised occupation.
