Evaluation of dental shade guide variability using cross-polarized photography
No full textThis study evaluated color variability in the A hue between the VITA Classical (VITA Zahnfabrik) shade guide and four other VITA-coded ceramic shade guides using a Canon EOS 60D camera and software (Photoshop CC, Adobe). A total of 125 photographs were taken, 5 per shade tab for each of 5 shades (A1 to A4) from the following shade guides: Vita Classical (control), IPS e.max Ceram (Ivoclar Vivadent), IPS d.SIGN (Ivoclar Vivadent), Initial ZI (GC), and Creation CC (Creation Willi Geller). Photos were processed with Adobe Photoshop CC to allow standardized evaluation of hue, chroma, and value between shade tabs. None of the VITA-coded shade tabs fully matched the VITA Classical shade tab for hue, chroma, or value. The VITA-coded shade guides evaluated herein showed an overall unmatched shade in all tabs when compared with the control, suggesting that shade selection should be made using the guide produced by the manufacturer of the ceramic intended for the final restoration365E76E8
Population genetic structure of an estuarine and a reef fish species exploited by brazilian artisanal fishing
No full textIn this study, we used microsatellite markers to examine the genetic structures of Centropomus undecimalis (Bloch, 1792) and Epinephelus marginatus (Lowe, 1834) populations collected from artisanal fishing sites along a stretch of coastline in southeastern Brazil. Based on F-statistics, there was no significant genetic differentiation evident in any C. undecimalis samples (F-ST=0.012). However, Bayesian clustering, principal component analysis (PCA) and discriminant analysis of principal components (DAPC) results suggested that there were most likely two clusters, with no relation to geographic areas. The bottleneck results showed no significant values and the effective population sizes (Ne) for the two genetically differentiated groups were large and similar. In contrast, for E. marginatus populations, the microsatellite loci showed no population subdivisions. The F-ST value was low and non-significant (F-ST=0.008), a Bayesian analysis indicated one cluster, and a PCA showed that all samples from different geographical sites shared the same genetic structure. The bottleneck results exhibited significant differences, and a low Ne was observed. The results of the genetic study of these two species along the southeastern Brazilian coast suggest that the distinct genetic structure of each species should be taken into account as management units for the conservation of their genetic diversities804467477CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO - CNPQCOORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DE PESSOAL DE NÍVEL SUPERIOR - CAPESFUNDAÇÃO DE AMPARO À PESQUISA DO ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO - FAPESPsem informaçãosem informação08/56249-9; 09/11154-
Acute abdominal pain as a presenting symptom of beriberi in a pediatric patient
No full textVitamin B1 (thiamine) plays a fundamental role in the proper functioning of the nervous and cardiovascular systems and in glucose metabolism. Because of the inability of the human body to store large amounts of vitamin, continuous restoration through diet is necessary. In the pediatric population, thiamine deficiency has a broad spectrum of clinical presentations, making diagnosis difficult. In this article, we report the case of a 7-month-old child with thiamine deficiency presented with neurological symptoms and simulation of acute abdomen. The patient received thiamine replacement, which resulted in rapid reversal of metabolic alterations and significant improvement in the signs and symptoms. A detailed investigation of dietary history and careful nutritional assessment of every critically ill pediatric patient is necessary, regardless of the primary cause of hospitalization626490495sem informaçã
