Clinical evidence and literature to compare two different therapeutic protocols in tooth avulsion.
No full textAIM: This is to assess the priority in tooth avulsion: replantation as quickly as possible and deferred endodontic treatment, or replantation and elimination of every irritating stimulus for the periodontal ligament. The objective is to establish a univocal protocol by analysing and comparing the various components of these therapeutic procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Study design: 20 patients were selected and divided into 2 groups: in group A we focused our attention on the rapidity of replantation, in group B we focused on the elimination of the necrotic pulp and every possible irritating stimulus that might lead to root resorption of inflammatory nature. RESULTS: Clinically, dental mobility seems to be greater in the first group. However after 15 days teeth have a comparable mobility and after one month they all show a mobility degree 1. Radiographically a greater incidence of resorption can be observed in group A compared to group B as in the first one a higher number of replanted teeth undergo resorption. Such lesions have the tendency to remain constant or even increase. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study seem to take only one direction: extraoral endodontic therapy
Learning from a 'Murri Way'
No full textUnder the modernist project indigenous social welfare work approaches have been silenced and relegated to the periphery as deficit theory and practice in the landscape of social work. This positioning has promoted the belief that indigenous expertise and culture is only of relevance for culturally-sensitive practice. Rejecting this view, I utilize the findings of a study of intra-group helping amongst Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders-a 'Murri Way'- to argue that social work theory and practice has much to learn from indigenous peoples about the interpersonal helping process. I call for recognition of a space of possibility between indigenous and non-indigenous practitioners that the indigenous telling creates. This is a space in between these players who do not share a common understanding, a space where players may participate in a dance of difference (dialogue) to help map a common space of understanding
Studio epidemiologico sulla prevalenza della patologia cariosa nella popolazione scolastica modenese
No full textNel 1979 il WHO e il FDI World Dental Federation annunciarono gli obiettivi per la salute orale: 6 goals entro l’anno 2000 tra cui si poneva particolare attenzione alla patologia cariosa nei pazienti in età pediatrica, all’età di 12 anni infatti è possibile effettuare uno studio a larga scala, in quanto si è ancora nelle scuole dell’obbligo e si è completata l’eruzione dei permanenti ad eccezione dei terzi molari.La prima mappa globale fu presentata nel 1969 mostrando la prevalenza di carie nei paesi industrializzati e nei paesi in via di sviluppo.Da allora ad oggi si sono susseguiti molteplici studi che permettono di avere un database a livello mondiale molto accurato.Il presente studio si inserisce in questa scia e vuole cercare di dare un quadro della situazione modenese riprendendo i parametri e le metodologie proposte dal WHO
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Aesthetic rehabilitation after a dento-alveolar trauma with indirect composite reconstruction
No full textThe aim of this study is to present a technique to establish a functional and aesthetic rehabilitation after a dento-alveolar trauma with uncomplicated crown fracture and to establish a predictable reproduction of the natural anatomy and nuance colour characteristics exhibited by natural dentition
Evaluation of bio-ceramics in post-extraction site
No full textObjectives: Extraction socket wound healing is characterized byresorption of the alveolar bone at the extraction site.The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical, radiographic,histological and histomorphometric effects of hydroxyapatitebone substitute on post-extraction wound healing.Methods: A total of 30 patients, who were referred for nonsurgical extractions of mandibular canine or premolar, wereincluded in the study. The relevant pre-operative informationswere recorded for each patient, included age and gender ofthe patient, indications for extraction, and tooth/teeth removed.Extractions were performed under local anesthesia with dentalforceps, elevators, or both. Patients were divided in 3 groups andevaluated at 4−8 and 12 months. A core of bone 3.5−12mm wasobtained from each patient.Results: Clinical evaluation: there was a good tissue integrationof the biomaterial; healing was uneventful in 30 alveoli (100%)and no healing complications were recorded.Radiographic evaluation: the hydroxyapatite showed a radioopacitysimilar to the surrounding bone.Histological evaluation: hydroxyapatite particle were observedin all specimens. Newly formed bone was characterized byabundance of cellular woven type bone in the coronal area whilelamellar arrangements could be identified only in the more apicalregion. New vital bone adhered to particles of residual graftmaterial.Histomorphometric evaluation: increase of mean bone tissue areaalong the histological sections were observed. Connective tissuefraction decrease from the crestal to the apical region.Conclusions: Hydroxyapatite bone substitute is an appropriatebiocompatible bone derivative in fresh extraction sockets for ridgepreservation
