    Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de infraoclusión en molares primarios de niños de 7 y 8 años, Valdivia, Chile.Material y método: Estudio descriptivo de corte transversal. Se examinaron niños de 7 y 8 años en establecimientos educacionales de Valdivia. Fue evaluada la presencia y severidad de infraoclusión en molares primarios utilizando la clasificación de Brearley & McKibben. Para establecer diferencias estadísticas entre sexo y presencia de infraoclusión fue realizada la prueba de chi-cuadrado. Además un análisis de ANOVA fue utilizado para establecer diferencias entre la localización de la infraoclusión y el grado de severidad. El nivel de significancia estadística se estableció con un valor de p<0,05. Resultados: Fueron evaluados 359 niños y un 41,78% presentó infraoclusión. Según grado de severidad, 82,1% fueron leves, 15,3% moderadas y 2,7% severas. No se encontraron diferencias significativas entre sexo y presencia de infraoclusión. Se evidenciaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas al evaluar localización y grado de severidad (p<0,05). Conclusión: Existe una alta prevalencia de infraoclusión en niños de 7 y 8 años en Valdivia, Chile

    Valdivia Estuary Project

    Valdivia is a Chilean city located near an estuary system, 800 km south of Santiago. The navigation capacity of the Valdivia river mainly determines the present state and future possibilities for the welfare of the city. Since sedimentation problems arose in the river, the capacity for navigation became limited. The ministry of Valdivia therefore desires a solution for this problem in order to create possibilities for future growth. However, it is not known to what extent solutions for the sedimentation problem will actually contribute to an increase of welfare. By identifying the problem for the Ministry of Public Works of Chile, the boundaries and goal of the project could be set. In this research an attempt is made to answer the following research question: How can the surplus of sediment in the Valdivia river be remedied and to what extent will this contribute to the economic and social values of the city of Valdivia? In order to know how to remedy the surplus of sediment, a qualitative analysis of probable causes of the sedimentation was necessary. The main subjects which were researched by means of data and literature are tidal influence, river discharges, sediment composition and salt intrusion. With this knowledge it was concluded that the directions and magnitudes of flow lines in the river system can give good indications on what locations sedimentation can occur. The interaction between tidal currents and river discharges are the main drivers behind these flow characteristics. To verify the theoretical analysis, a basic Delft3D model was set up containing only tidal movement and river discharges. The pattern of the flow lines which was obtained from the Delft3D model supports the possibility that sedimentation occurs on the current identified sedimentation locations. Although other hydrological and morphological processes were found to possibly influence sedimentation rates in the river, qualitative data for studying these processes were missing. The current Delft3D model is therefore a good result regarding the available data and can be seen as a part of preliminary research in order to support further studies. Because the exact causes of the sedimentation were not identified in this research, it was not possible to come up with suitable solutions and to research how these solutions could affect the system. However, in order to gain insight in the effects of a river system without sedimentation problems, a fictitious scenario was studied by means of a social cost benefit analysis. The goal of the social costs and benefits analysis was to give insight in what factors should be taken into account when considering a project plan which solves the sedimentation problem. A dredging design was made in order to make the Valdivia river navigable for larger cargo vessels to increase the trading capacity of Valdivia. This dredging design comprises the deepening of the Valdivia river to a minimum water depth of 10 meters. Considering investment and maintenance costs of the dredging activities of this magnitude, it is concluded that the costs are not profitable compared to the social and economic effects of a higher traffic intensity on the river. With the social costs and benefits analysis all effects of solving the sedimentation problem are inventoried. When the Delft3D model can identify what the remedy of the sedimentation could be, the impact on the economic and social values of Valdivia can be determined. This research was not sufficient to answer the research question. Both the Delft3D model and the SCBA model were lacking accurate and reliable data. To expand this research, it is necessary to collect the data of which an overview has been made. Therefore, this research can serve as a preliminary study for further research. It is recommended that after data collection, solutions will be identified which can solve the sedimentation problem. These solutions need to be compared with a scenario analysis in order to decide on which is the most suitable solution for the sedimentation problem. Besides this, it is advised to research whether it is actually necessary to expand the river for transport when looking at all actors involved.Multidisciplinary Projec

    Objetivo: Determinar satisfacción usuaria en el uso de aparatos de ortodoncia fija post instalación. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional de corte transversal, en pacientes con tratamiento de ortodoncia fija en centros de salud de la ciudad de Valdivia y Paillaco. El nivel de satisfacción fue medido mediante una encuesta validada al español de Gacitúa et al., (2016). Para establecer diferencias, se realizó la prueba de Friedman con un nivel de significancia p menor que 0,05.Resultados: Participaron 34 pacientes. La edad promedio fue de 14,1 DE ± 3,5 años. El puntaje total de satisfacción para el primer control fue 37,94 (DE ± 7,13) puntos, 40,56 (DE ± 6,35) puntos para el segundoy 41,09 (DE ± 6,92) puntos para el tercero.Conclusión: El nivel de satisfacción en el uso de aparatos de ortodoncia fija, aumenta a medida que transcurre el tratamiento de ortodoncia

    An Example Concerning Valdivia Compact Spaces

    ∗ Supported by Research grants GAUK 190/96 and GAUK 1/1998We prove that the dual unit ball of the space C0 [0, ω1 ) endowed with the weak* topology is not a Valdivia compact. This answers a question posed to the author by V. Zizler and has several consequences. Namely, it yields an example of an affine continuous image of a convex Valdivia compact (in the weak* topology of a dual Banach space) which is not Valdivia, and shows that the property of the dual unit ball being Valdivia is not an isomorphic property. Another consequence is that the space C0 [0, ω1 ) has no countably 1-norming Markusevic basis

    Neuromuscular and vascular hamartoma (NMVH) is an extremely rare entity of the small intestine, presenting radiologically with polyp-like lesions or stenoses and clinically with non-specific abdominal symptoms or gastrointestinal bleeding. Surgical resection is curative. We hereby report the case of an ileal NMVH in a pediatric patient, detected by capsule endoscopy and subsequently removed surgically, after localization of the lesion with intraoperative enteroscopy
