La caries y placa bacteriana con relación a los aspectos sociofamiliares
Get PDFABSTRACT: The research work aimed to synthesize the updated theoretical positions on caries and plaque associated with socio-family aspects through a scientific bibliographic review, identify the most appropriate indices for the diagnosis of caries, contribute with the updated theory on the plaque index; to finally determine the relationship between caries and bacterial plaque with socio-family aspects. For the development of the research, articles were used from journals indexed through databases such as PubMed, Scielo, Elsevier, Google Scholar and Medigraphic were used in a period of 10 years, that is, from 2013 to 2023, where 59 quality publications were selected for the review process. As a result, it was determined that socio-family aspects are associated with caries and bacterial plaque, affecting the quality of life of people, among the problems that most affect the progression of this disease is the lack of knowledge for prevention and the economic factor that prevents people from regularly monitoring their oral health. The most widely used index for the detection of this disease is the CPOD index that describes decayed, missing and filled teeth, allowing the assessment of the patient's dental health. Dental plaque is also important to mention because it is the cause of the demineralization of the tooth structure when you do not have proper oral hygiene, causing periodontal diseases that lead to the loss of teeth.RESUMEN: El trabajo investigativo tuvo como objetivo sintetizar los posicionamientos teóricos actualizados sobre la caries y placa bacteriana asociadas a los aspectos sociofamiliares mediante una revisión bibliográfica científica, identificar los índices más adecuados para el diagnóstico de caries, aportar con la teoría actualizada sobre el índice de placa; para finalmente determinar la relación que existe entre la caries y placa bacteriana con los aspectos sociofamiliares. Para el desarrollo de la investigación se empleó artículos de revistas indexadas por medio de bases de datos como PubMed, Scielo, Elsevier, Google Scholar y Medigraphic en un lapso temporal de 10 años es decir del 2013 al 2023, donde se seleccionó 59 publicaciones de calidad para el proceso de revisión. Como resultado se determinó que los aspectos sociofamiliares están asociados a la caries y placa bacteriana afectando la calidad de vida de las personas, entre los problemas que más afectan en la progresión de esta enfermedad está la falta de conocimiento para la prevención y el factor económico que impide que las personas lleven un control regular de la salud oral. El índice más utilizado para la detección de esta enfermedad es el índice CPOD que describe los dientes cariados, perdidos y obturados permitiendo evaluar la salud dental del paciente. La placa dental también es importante mencionarla porque es la causante de la desmineralización de la estructura del diente cuando no se tiene una correcta higiene bucal causando enfermedades periodontales que con llevan hasta la pérdida de las piezas dentales.UNACH,Ecuado
Presencia de diente rosa postmortem en odontología forense
Get PDFIntroduction. The prevalence of the phenomenon of the appearance of pink teeth, demonstrating as a potentially relevant thanatological finding in the forensic process, characterized by presenting a reddish color change due to the blood staining of its pulp that is given by hemoglobin, existing in the blood cells that begin to disarticulate and develop deoxyhemoglobin, appearing in the body with a red to purple color, specifically in the teeth after death. Objective. To know the prevalence of the post-mortem pink tooth phenomenon in forensic odontology due to unnatural deaths. Methodology. Descriptive bibliographic research, scientific articles related to the topic from the last 5 years. Results and discussion. Information has been selected in relation to the pink tooth phenomenon, demonstrating the histological changes that the dental pulp undergoes post-mortem, identifying the main associated factors and the technique that allows the study of this phenomenon to be identified, considering it an essential element in the forensic context. Conclusion. A direct relationship between the postmortem pink tooth and the cause of death is not established, since scientifically it cannot be attributed to this phenomenon. General area of study: Dentistry. Specific area of study: Forensic odontology. Type of study: Literature review.Introducción. La prevalencia del fenómeno de la aparición de dientes rosados, demostrando como un hallazgo tanatológico potencialmente relevante en el proceso forense, caracterizado por presentar un cambio de coloración rojizo debido a la tinción de sangre de su pulpa que se da por la hemoglobina, existentes en las células sanguíneas que inician a desarticular y desarrollan la desoxihemoglobina, presentándose en el organismo con una coloración de rojo a púrpura, específicamente en las piezas dentales después de la muerte. Objetivo. Conocer la prevalencia del fenómeno post mortem del diente rosado en odontología forense a causa de muertes no naturales. Metodología. Investigación descriptiva de tipo bibliográfico, artículos científicos relacionados al tema de los últimos 5 años. Resultados y Discusión. Se ha seleccionado información en relación con el fenómeno del diente rosa, logrando evidenciar los cambios histológicos que sufre la pulpa dental post mortem, identificando los principales factores asociados y la técnica que permite identificar al estudio de este fenómeno, considerándose un elemento importante en el contexto forense. Conclusión. No se establece una relación directa entre el diente rosado postmortem con las causas de la muerte, ya que científicamente no puede atribuírsele a este fenómeno. Área de estudio general: Odontología. Área de estudio específica: Odontología forense. Tipo de estudio: Revisión bibliográfica
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
