Ductility of Base metalalloy increased by Nickel

Cobalt: (35-65%) decrease hardness, strength and rigidity.
Chromium: (23 – 30 %) passivity effect, decrease melting point.
Nickel: (0-20%) decrease strength and hardness, increase ductility (Nickel cause sensitivity in some patients).
Molybdenum: (0-7%) increase hardness.

Oral lichenoid reactions often exhibit a deeper, more diffuse inflammatory infiltrate compared to oral lichen planus, where the infiltrate is typically band-like and confined to the superficial lamina propria. Other features like Wickham striae and liquefaction degeneration of the basal layer are common to both conditions.

Progenitor hematopoietic stem cells originate in the bone marrow, where they differentiate into various blood cell lineages.

Type 2 diabetes is primarily associated with insulin resistance, where the body's cells do not respond effectively to insulin.

Pseudohypoparathyroidism is characterized by resistance to parathyroid hormone, leading to low serum calcium levels, not elevated serum calcium.

overtrituration (i.e., triturating for longer than the recommended time) results in a mix that is warm and has a dull surface; often the mix sticks to the capsule; it shortens setting time (because the amalgam mass becomes heated), increases contraction, and increases creep; also increases tensile and compressive strength values (for lathe-cut alloys), decreases tensile and compressive strengths (for spherical alloys); overtrituration by 10% is acceptable
