2. Uma peculiar tafocenose controlada por ação biogênica no triássico médio do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil
We present here an outcrop with a peculiar fossil assemblage, including a distinct taphocoenosis in comparison to other fossiliferous outcrops of the Santa Maria Formation (Triassic, Paraná Basin). Fossil concentration in this outcrop is made-up of herbivorous non-mammalian cynodonts (Synapsida, Therapsida) only, tentatively assigned to Massetognathus. The

6. Estudo radiográfico e por tomografia computadorizada das formações orais em cães / Radiographic and computed tomographic studies of oral tumors in dogs
The oral cancers represent the fourth most common cancer in dogs. Imaging of oral cancer is needed to determine the tumor extension and the affected local tissues, assisting in prognosis and surgical planning. Currently the radiographic examination is the most used diagnostic method. It is accessible and less expensive, but the large number of structures in

7. Análise da integração do aloenxerto ósseo de crânio criopreservado e irradiado, adicionado de medula óssea autógena: estudo experimental em coelhos / Deep frozen, irradiated calvarial bone allograft added with autogenous bone marrow incorporation analysis. Experimental study in rabbits
Searching for alternatives to autogenous bone graft in craniofacial reconstructions, it is proposed deep-frozen, irradiated calvarial bone allograft added with autogenous bone marrow utilization. Twenty and one rabbits were sacrificed and their parietal bones harvest, deep-frozen and gamma irradiated with 50kGy. The allografts were implanted in twenty one ot

12. Evaluation of intermittent administration of parathyroid hormone in the repair process of rat calvaria defects / Avaliação da administração intermitente de hormonio paratireoideo no reparo de defeitos na calvaria de ratos
The study aimed to investigate the effects ofintermittent parathyroid hormone PTH(1-34) treatment on bone regeneration of critically sized rat calvarial bone defects. A fullthickness bone defect (diameter 4 mm) was trephined in the central part of the parietal bones in ten-week old male Wistar rats. The animaIs were then divided into 2 groups of 16. The PTH
