Extraoral vertical ramus osteotomy (EVRO) is used in orthognathic surgery for the treatment of mandibular deformities. Originally, EVRO required postoperative intermaxillary fixation (IMF). EVRO has ...been developed using rigid fixation, omitting postoperative IMF. We examined retrospectively the long-term stability and postoperative complications for patients with mandibular deformities who underwent EVRO with internal rigid fixation. Patients who were treated with EVRO for a mandibular deformity in the period 2008–2017 at the Clinic of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Mölndal, Sweden were included (N = 26). Overjet and overbite were calculated digitally and cephalometric analyses were performed preoperatively, and at three days, six months, and 18 months postoperatively. There was a general setback of the mandible, decreased gonial angle and reduced degree of skeletal opening. Excellent dental and vertical skeletal stabilities were seen up to 18 months postoperatively, although relapse was seen sagitally up to six months postoperatively. Since the overjet did not show any significant change over time, the sagittal skeletal changes have been attributed to dental compensation. There was no permanent damage to the facial nerve and 5.8% neurosensory damage to the inferior alveolar nerve was observed.
This paper investigates the impacts of the current economic developments, the Euro adoption, and input prices on the consumer food prices. The focus of the analysis is on the consumer food price ...developments during the Slovenian adjustments towards the European Union membership, the Euro adoption by the followed increased in consumer prices, and the current economic and financial conditions. The empirical analysis on the determinants of the consumer food prices is based on the monthly statistical data, which were obtained from the Statistical Office of Republic of Slovenia. We use three statistical methods of the analyses on the time-series data: principal component analysis, regression analysis, and linear trend analysis. We found that the Euro adoption had only short-term impact on the consumer food prices. The rise in the consumer food prices has been determined by the intermediary costs and the agricultural producers` prices. Prispevek analizira vpliv ekonomsko-finančnih gibanj, uvedbe evra in cene inputov na cene hrane in brezalkoholnih pijač (agroživilske cene). Članek se osredotoča na agroživilske cene v času slovenskega pristopa k Evropski uniji, sprejetjem evra, povečanih cen življenjskih potrebščin in trenutne gospodarske in finančne krize. Empirična analiza dejavnikov agroživilskih cen temelji na mesečnih statističnih podatkih, ki so bili pridobljeni iz Statističnega urada Republike Slovenije. Uporabljene so tri statistične metode analize časovnih serij podatkov: metoda glavnih komponent, regresijska analiza in analiza linearnega trenda. Ugotovili smo, da se agroživilske cene na srednji rok niso povečale z uvedbo evra. Agroživilske cene pa imajo statistično značilno povezanost s stroški in s cenami pridelkov pri pridelovalcih.
The thermal evolution of source rocks in the Paleozoic has long been a problem to petroleum exploration in the Bachu uplift, Tarim basin, since the thermal history in the Paleozoic could not be ...rebuilt objectively due to lack of effective thermal indicators in the Lower Paleozoic successions. The apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He thermochronometry can be used as a new kind of technique to study the thermal history and tectonic uplift of sedimentary basins. Based on the measured apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He ages, apatite fission track data and equivalence vitrinite reflectance (%EVRo), the tectonothermal histories in 5 wells of the Bachu uplift were modeled. The modeling results show that there was relatively high gradient at the Early Paleozoic in the Bachu uplift and it decreased gradually during the entire Paleozoic: 33-35℃/km in the Cambrian- Ordovician, 32-33℃/km in the Silurian-Devonian, 30-32℃/km at the end of Carboniferous and 27.5- 31℃/km at the end of Permian. Therefore, the thermal history can be modeled by combining multiple thermal indicators of AFT, (U-Th)/He ages and EVRo data. Especially, this provides a new method to rebuild the thermal history for the Low Paleozoic carbonate successions in the Tarim Basin.

The morphometric characteristics of the Kaidu River and Keriya River in the extremely arid Tarim Basin, and the Evros Vallis on Mars were compared to study the formation of the dendritic Evros ...Vallis, which has great significance for exploring ancient climate of Mars. The following results were obtained: (a) the average sinuosities of Kaidu River, Keriya River, and Evros Vallis are 1.17, 1.35, and 1.32 respectively. (b) the average bifurcation ratios are 3.84, 4.73 and 3.43 respectively. (c) the average stream length ratios are 2.21, 3.86 and 2.08 respectively. (d) the stream frequencies are 0.017, 0.028 and 0.002 respectively. (e) the drainage densities are 0.195 km−1 and 0.217 km−1, and 0.048 km−1 respectively. (f) the stream gradients are 3.74‰, 7.03‰ and 1.63‰ respectively. (g) the stream fractal dimensions are 1.70, 1.0 and 1.68 respectively. Paleodischarge estimations at different stream segments of Evros Vallis support the hypothesis that the V-bend area that joints the eastern and western segments possibly has a tectonic origin. Geomorphological evidence (e.g., tributaries) from high-resolution images and stream morphometric parameters from a comparative analysis (e.g., concave upward longitudinal profile and stream fractal dimension) support previous hypothesis that Evros Vallis is a mature drainage system formed by precipitation-driven surface runoff. This drainage process occurred either in a continuously warm-wet climate that lasted long enough on early Mars or in regional hydrologic cycles consisting of precipitation and occasionally returned runoff in intermittently clement climates.
•Kaidu River and Keriya River in arid Tarim Basin were chosen as terrestrial analogs for the dendritic Evros Vallis on Mars.•Morphometric parameters of stream networks, e.g., sinuosity, bifurcation ratio, etc., are calculated and compared.•Martian Evros Vallis is a mature drainage system formed by precipitation-driven surface runoff.
