Prevalence of Oral Pain and Barriers to use of Emergency Oral Care Facilities Among Adult Tanzanians.
No full textOral pain has been the major cause of the attendances in the dental clinics in Tanzania. Some patients postpone seeing the dentist for as long as two to five days. This study determines the prevalence of oral pain and barriers to use of emergency oral care in Tanzania. Questionnaire data were collected from 1,759 adult respondents aged 18 years and above. The study area covered six urban and eight rural study clusters, which had been selected using the WHO Pathfinder methodology. Chi-square tests and logistic regression analyses were performed to identify associations.\ud
Forty two percent of the respondents had utilized the oral health care facilities sometimes in their lifetime. About 59% of the respondents revealed that they had suffered from oral pain and/or discomfort within the twelve months that preceded the study, but only 26.5% of these had sought treatment from oral health care facilities. The reasons for not seeking emergency care were: lack of money to pay for treatment (27.9%); self medication (17.6%); respondents thinking that pain would disappear with time (15.7%); and lack of money to pay for transport to the dental clinic (15.0%). Older adults were more likely to report that they had experienced oral pain during the last 12 months than the younger adults (OR = 1.57, CI 1.07-1.57, P < 0.001). Respondents from rural areas were more likely report dental clinics far from home (OR = 5.31, CI = 2.09-13.54, P < 0.001); self medication at home (OR = 3.65, CI = 2.25-5.94, P < 0.001); and being treated by traditional healer (OR = 5.31, CI = 2.25-12.49, P < 0.001) as reasons for not seeking emergency care from the oral health care facilities than their counterparts from urban areas. Oral pain and discomfort were prevalent among adult Tanzanians. Only a quarter of those who experienced oral pain or discomfort sought emergency oral care from oral health care facilities. Self medication was used as an alternative to using oral care facilities mainly by rural residents. Establishing oral care facilities in rural areas is recommended

Emil Fahrenkamp: Bauten und Projekte für Berlin
No full textThema der vorliegenden Arbeit ist die umfassende Aufarbeitung und Dokumentation der Bauten und Projekte Emil Fahrenkamps (*1885, 1966) in Berlin und Potsdam-Babelsberg sowie die kritische Einordnung seiner Arbeiten in den Kontext der Baugeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Den zentralen Untersuchungsgegenstand bildet, neben der gebaudespezifischen Erfassung der Bau- und Planungsprozesse und der Gebaudebeschreibung Fahrenkamps grosstadtische Arbeiten und Entwurfe in ihrem gesellschaftlichen Kontext zu analysieren. Zeitlich umfasst die Arbeitsphase Fahrenkamps in Berlin die Jahre zwischen 1920 und 1945, in denen er seine bauliche Aktivitaten sowohl fur private Bauherrn als auch fur offentliche Auftraggeber etablieren und ausbauen konnte. Emil Fahrenkamp galt bisher als ein Vertreter der Moderne in Deutschland. Dieses fest gefugte Bild entstand durch die einseitige Gleichsetzung seiner Architektur mit dem Shell-Haus, das in den Jahren 192932 nach seinen Planen in Berlin errichtet wurde und das zur Ikone grosstadtischen Bauens in der baugeschichtlichen Bewertung geworden ist. Die vorliegende Arbeit sucht diese Sicht auf Emil Fahrenkamp kritisch zu hinterfragen und zu differenzieren. Indem sie exemplarisch seine Arbeiten fur Berlin aufarbeitet, gelingt eine neue Sicht seiner architektonischen Intention und damit eine Neubewertung seiner Bedeutung in der deutschen Baugeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts.Architectur

Between the pain and the joy of existing: approaches to Emil Cioran and Albert Cossery
No full textThe following lines continue the interest already shown in some other works referring to the familiarity of Emil Cioran and Albert Cossery. This text addresses issues ranging from marginal writing to the always latent repudiation of civilization and all that it entails. The ways adopted to crack the ideals of the human being, the ways of portraying the most insignificant miseries, concentrate doses of sarcasm, caustic words similar to sharp knives and raucous laughter. Yet despite the similarities, Cioran and Cossery are diametrically opposed on concluding points; namely, while one saw in life sufficient reason for constant celebration, for the other living would imply torment, the only way out of which is inaccessible.Las siguientes líneas se elucidan referentes a la familiaridad de Emil Cioran y Albert Cossery. En este texto se abordan temas que van desde la escritura marginal hasta el repudio, siempre latente, de la civilización y todo lo que ella acarrea. Las maneras adoptadas para resquebrajar los ideales del ser humano, las formas de retratar las más ínfimas miserias, concentran dosis de sarcasmo, palabras cáusticas semejantes a navajas afiladas y risas estridentes. No obstante, a pesar de las similitudes, Cioran y Cossery son diametralmente opuestos en los puntos concluyentes; a saber, mientras uno veía en la vida la razón suficiente para una celebración constante, para el otro vivir implicaría un tormento, cuya única salida se muestra inaccesible
