Abstract: A glass material that includes: from about 0.45 to about 0.86 mole fraction of SiO2; from about 0.05 to about 0.43 mole fraction of: Y2O3, BaO, or a combination of Y2O3 and BaO; and optionally Ta2O5. The sum of the Y2O3, the BaO and the optional Ta2O5 is from about 0.10 to about 0.50 mole fraction. The glass includes less than 0.01 mole fraction of Na2O and less than 0.01 mole fraction of K2O. The glass material may be in the form of microspheres. The microspheres may be used for vascular embolization and/or radiologic imaging.

Abstract: A glass material that includes: from about 0.55 to about 0.85 mole fraction of SiO2; from about 0.01 to about 0.23 mole fraction of Na2O, K2O, or a combination of Na2O and K2O; from about 0.05 to about 0.28 mole fraction of: Y2O3, BaO, or a combination of Y2O3 and BaO; and optionally Ta2O5. In the glass material, the sum of the Y2O3, the BaO and the optional Ta2O5 is from about 0.10 to about 0.31 mole fraction. The glass material may be in the form of microspheres. The microspheres may be used for vascular embolization and/or radiologic imaging.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a glass composition that include from about 50 mol % to about 95 mol % of B2O3; from about 5 mol % to about 50 mol % of one or more glass components selected from the group consisting of: Li2O, Rb2O, K2O, Na2O, SrO, CaO, MgO, and ZnO. The glass composition includes less than 30 mol % of Rb2O. The glass composition is a quaternary system. The glass composition is a particulate material that includes particles that are from about 1 to about 50 ?m in size. The glass composition loses at least 5 mass % within 24 hours when exposed to a buffered saline solution. The glass composition may be used to desensitize dentin. The present disclosure also provides a dentin-desensitizing composition.

Abstract: A system and method for providing dynamic pay-for-placement advertisements via graphics-enabled email that generates a display of advertisements when the email newsletter is opened so the advertisements displayed are based on rankings at the time the email is opened instead of when the email was generated and transmitted. In one embodiment, a graphical-content email having one or more embedded advertisement image references is provided to one or more email recipients. The advertisement image reference, in one embodiment, may include query string parameters indicating the context of the image reference and/or portion of the image reference (i.e., identifying the image reference as being part of a particular newsletter email), a position of the image reference in the email display, and the like. A URL reference also may be included with each advertisement image reference (.e.g., one URL for each advertisement portion of the image to be retrieved by the advertising image reference).
