Integración de la Ciencia y la Tecnología en la Cultura Moderna
Authors: Restrepo O. Guillermo
Published: August 2019

Es bien conocida la oposición planteada por Charles P. Show3 entre la cultura científica y la cultura humanística en la sociedad moderna. Los humanistas no reconocen el valor cultural de las ciencias físico matemáticas y de las ciencias naturales en general, como si no fueran parte integral de las estructuras simbólicas de la sociedad. Esta actitud negativa obedece a muchas razones. Pero la principal es una percepción de la ciencia, como una fuerzas insensible, fría e impersonal que es incompatible con el despliegue de la auténtica humanidad del hombre. A su turno, los científicos tienden a ver las manifestaciones artísticas v filosóficas romo anacronismos inútiles que circulan entre un grupo selecto de personas "Cultaas"' que viven de espaldas ala realidad tangible. Esta contradicción tiene en Colombia características propias debido al gran peso que en la cultura nacionaJ tienen las tradiciones literarias.

This study determined students´ knowledge about ocular lesions and protection associated to the use of the light curing lamp at University of Valle in Cali, Colombia. One hundred and one dentistry students evaluated by surveys and the statistical analysis was made with the software Epi-info. It was found that students accept to use methods of ocular protection but they do not know the rationale for its use, since they do not know the damages that the light emitted by the curing lamp may produce at ocular level. In addition, they do not know the type of light emitted by each one’s lamp used in their daily practices. These results will permit to clarify and to improve the students´ knowledge about the damages and the ocular protection in the use of the curing lamp, and thus to give them the recommendations for a better use of it and to assure them a suitable protection. Key Words: Light curing lamps. Dentistry student’s knowledge on eye protection devices. Biosecurity.

Authors: Padilla Margarita , Tello Lina , Hernández Jesús Alberto
Published: August 2019

Summary: The issue of transversal malocclusions has been widely studied bymany authors around the world and researched from many perspectives: skeletal, muscular, dental andfunctional. Reports describe the different etiologies, complications and compromises ofmalocclusion, leading to a general consensus that, the sooner it is corrected, the less theirconsequences and negative effects on growth and development will be, and good results can beachieved with great long-term stability. Therefore the aim of this paper is to identify through aliterature review, the necessary tools that allow the detection, diagnosis and treatment of thesemalocclusions at an early stage and to prevent severe skeletal asymmetries. Key words: Transversalmalocclusions. Cross-bite. Unilateral posterior crossbite. Bilateral posterior. Crossbite. Planasdirect tracks. Early transverse treatment.

Published: August 2019

Summary
Objective: To determine correlations of ten non-metric dental crown traits NMDCT (Carabelli, hipocon2, enamel bridge, metaconule, protostylid, deflecting wrinkle, pattern cusp, cusp number and 6 and 7 cusp) between deciduous second upper (um2) and low (lm2) molars, permanent first upper (UM1) and lower (LM1) molars and permanent second upper (UM2) and lower (LM2) molars were studied. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study determines the correlation of ten NMDCT through of the frequency and variability, observed on 201 dental casts of Cali racially mixed population, 84 dental casts of Puerto Tejada African-Colombian population and 60 dental casts of Colombian Amazons natives. Results: The Colombian Amazon natives showed high correlation in Carabelli and cusp number between um2/UM1; and very high in metaconule and pattern cusp. Cali racially mixed population showed moderated correlation in Carabelli, deflecting wrinkle and pattern cusp between um2/UM1; and high in 6 cusp. And between UM1/UM2/LM1/LM2 moderate in deflecting wrinkle; and high in protostylid, pattern cusp and 6 cusp. Puerto Tejada African-Colombian population showed moderated correlation between UM1/UM2/LM1/LM2 in deflecting wrinkle; and high in protostylid, pattern cusp and 6 cusp. Conclusions: Findings support the proposal of morphogenetic field theory, which exposes that the key tooth in deciduous and permanent molars is um2/lm2 because it retains the basic configuration of contact and number of cusps pattern, so UM1/UM2/LM1/LM2 will vary according to ethnic origin and to the environmental influence of each ofn three studied ethnic groups. Key words: Dental anthropology. Dental morphology. Non-metric dental traits. Deciduous dentition. Permanent dentition. Correlations.

SUMMARYObjective: To make the cheiloscopic analysisin dental students of the city of Calithrough the impression of the lip furrowsin fine cardboard paper and digital photographyof the lips.Material and Methods: Observationalstudy of descriptive type that determinedthe pattern of lip furrows through Renaud’smethod in 47 dental students (24 womenand 23 men) of the University del Vallebelonging to predominantly Caucasoid raciallymixed ethnic group. The contingencycoefficient was used to associate the patternof lip furrows between gender, superior andinferior lips, right and left quadrants, andphotographs and impressions. A p<0.05was considered statistically significant.Results: The more frequent patterns of lipfurrows for men and women were the A andthe C. There were not associations betweensex and the patterns of lip furrows in thesuperior and inferior lips, or right and leftsides. There was a high correlation betweenthe digital photography and the labial paperimpression. It was not observed sexual dimorphism,but it was observed bilateralityin the same lip.Conclusions: The Renaud’s method demonstratedto be very limited since therewere found 19 identical cheiloscopic formulas,since the description of the patternof labial prints does not consider either thenumber or distribution of furrows withinthe lip. For that reason, and given to the lowcorrelation between men and women andaccording to the findings of this study, thepattern of labial furrows can be consideredonly and unique.Key words: Forensic Sciences, forensicodontology, cheiloscopy, lip prints.

He allí el dilema, los investigadores están inmersos en un sistema que privilegia la generación de nuevo conocimiento, pero el uso de dicho conocimiento posee implicaciones de poder, de políticas y de dilemas éticos importantes que con frecuencia desbordan sus intereses.
La generación de nuevo conocimiento, su aplicación como motor del desarrollo, y la innovación representan indicadores modernos del grado de avance social, económico y tecnológico de las naciones y pueden representar cifras significativas en sus economías.
Solo una pequeña elite de países del concierto mundial se benefician de los avances en el conocimiento transformado en innovación y tecnología, así entonces, unos pocos comercializan el conocimiento, mientras que la gran mayoría de los países “compran” los servicios que aquellos privilegiados proveen a través de empresas multinacionales. Existe entonces, un inmerso desequilibrio entre la potencialidad que ofrece la generación del nuevo conocimiento, si éste no es potenciado entre las comunidades científicas y si los países no desarrollan plataformas para ligar la generación de conocimiento con la aplicación del mismo y la capacidad del entorno social de asimilarlo y aprovecharlo en la solución de los problemas de las comunidades.

Relationship between periodontal disease (PD) and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD): a review of topic
Authors: Herrera Cristian , Arcos Jonathan
Published: August 2019

Several clinical studies had investigated the possible relationship between periodontal disease (PD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Some studies prove an epidemiological association between PD and CVD, that from the biological viewpoint may be linked to both chronic inflammation triggered by microbes and persistent microbial infection by periodontal pathogens. In that sense, individuals presenting deep periodontal pockets without periodontal treatment, increased number of missing teeth and other periodontal markers like clinical attachment level and bleeding on probing, seem to be important risk factors markers for cardiovascular disease. Both, EP and cerebrovascular diseases are frequent, and those association is important in Public Health setting. EP and CVD share risk factors such as age, tobacco, stress, socioeconomic status and fat metabolism, so that the chances of introducing confusion into the studies is high. Few population studies have examined the effect of periodontal treatment on the risk of developing cardiovascular events (either primary or secondary prevention), however, it must be noted that the evidence in human studies suggest a possible beneficial effect of periodontal treatment of cardiovascular function index. In this paper, we review the literature that enables the general dentist and specialist an approach to this problem and better understanding of this phenomenon to patient benefit.

La diagramación es similar a la de antes pero lógico, con programas más avanzados y especializados. Los resultados son sorprendentes. Lo que me tardaba dos o tres meses ahora se logra en pocos días. La divulgación es efectiva. Con las redes sociales se puede notar como un ejemplar recién subido a la nube, se empieza a leer de inmediato por la comunidad del gremio. Pasamos de los voluminosos tirajes que había que repartir con mucho costo, a una divulgación gratuita y masiva. Y así muchos otros aspectos que serían muy tediosos enumerar pero que han dejado como resultado final mucha satisfacción.
Con el apoyo incondicional que ha ofrecido el director de la Escuela de Odontología y un personal talentoso de colaboradores, pretendemos que esta nueva Revista acoja la experiencia de la anterior publicación y con las herramientas actuales podamos llegar a la tan anhelada y esquiva indexación por parte de Colciencias.
A eso le estamos apostando.
Description of the stages of bone maturation by Bjork´s carpal radiography of children and adolescents in two groups of different ethnic ancestry
Authors: Bedoya Antonio , Osorio Julio-César , Tamayo Julian-Andrés
Published: August 2019

Objective: This study described the stages of bone maturation according to Bjork´s method through carpal radiography in children aged 8-15 year-old belonging to the indigenous population Ticuna (Amazonas) and the black population of Puerto Tejada (Cauca).
Materials and methods: 72 children Ticuna indigenous community, located in Leticia (Amazonas) and 80 children of African descent in the municipality Puerto Tejada (Cauca) were studied. Children tested aged8 to 15 year-old. Children were transferred to a specialized radiology center where carpal radiographs of both hands were taken. The height and weight measurements were obtained by using a digital scale and Conair ® brand plastic tape, which was placed on the wall. For analysis of bone maturation, was used the method of Björk.
Results: It was observed that there is a significant relationship between bone development and sex (p=0.001), ie, that women are more likely to have more advanced stages of bone maturation that men. When bony maturation stages according to ethnic groups were related, they find that people of African descent have a higher bone development that indigenous. It was evidenced that children at older ages presented higher bone maturation stages.
Conclusion: It was determined that the African descent was significantly related to bone development (p=0.005), as compared to children of Amerindian descent. In addition, it was determined that thereis a relation between bone developmentand women (p=0.001) and age groups (p=0.000). In general, when comparing these two populations was found that the ancestry, age and gender are factors that affect bone development of children and should be taken into account when starting any treatment.
Key words: Carpogram, ethnic descent, indigenous, African bone maturation, Bjork radiographic method/ descent.
Relationship between dermatoglyphics and cleft lip and/or palate: a review of literature
Authors: Díaz Cristian , Barhoum Habib
Published: August 2019

This article reviews the concepts associated with dermatoglyphs such as their classification, characteristics and applications. It also reviews orofacial clefts such as cleft lip and palate and proposes a possible relationship between dermatoglyphics and these orofacial clefts, entities that are considered isolated at first, but considering that they are derived from the same embryonic tissue, the ectoderm, and their development is in the same period of gestation, making genetic and environmental factors that would influence the development of the asyndromic lip and / or palate could be reflected in the fingerprints and the type of pattern that they follow.
Key words: Cleft lip, dermatoglyphics, cleft palate, fingerprint.
Acinetobacter baumannii: Resistance and Virulence mediated through bacterial type IV secretion system
Authors: Zúñiga-Bahamon Andrés , Tobar Fabián , Duque Juan Fernando , Moreno Pedro
Published: August 2019

Introduction: Type IV Bacterial Secretion Systems (TFSS) have a variety of biological functions such as the exchange of genetic material with other bacteria and virulent translocation of DNA with its effector proteins into host cells. A. baumannii is a pathogen that causes infections in humans and exhibits high rates of multidrug resistance to drugs.
Objective: To relate how type IV secretion systems is associated with patterns of resistance and virulence in A. baumannii.
Materials and Methods: Exhaustive search in PMC (NCBI) using a set of keywords was performed. Results: The search yielded 133 articles. Fourteen articles were analysed to determine the bacterial secretion system and the resistant and virulence of AA. baumannii.
Conclusions: Systems of bacterial type IV secretion present in A. baumannii are crucial in understanding the patterns of virulence and resistance.
Key words: Pathogenicity, type four secretion system (T4SS), A. baumannii, virulence factors, multidrug bacterial resistance (MDR), horizontal gene transfer (HGT).
Editorial. Outsourcing of Scientific Research in Colombia: A Real Threat

Aunque desde el inicio de la era moderna se ha reconocido el valor del conocimiento como fuente de riqueza y bienestar social, el efecto de este poder se está sintiendo con mayor fuerza en el mundo actual. En lo que va corrido del siglo XXI, la investigación científica está influenciando el desarrollo económico y social de los países. Sin embargo, el impacto en la generación de conocimientos está limitada a los recursos que se  destinen a esta actividad. En este sentido, la demanda de incremento en su financiación ha originado la necesidad de evaluar la actividad científica y sus resultados, siendo uno de los indicadores más directos las publicaciones científicas.
Para examinar la productividad y el impacto de la investigación científica en el mundo, se han desarrollado diferentes indicadores bibliométricos o de indización, entre los cuales algunos son poco conocidos. Sin embargo históricamente, los más usados han sido el factor de impacto (1), el índice H (2); más recientemente la clasificación por cuartiles del Scimago SCOPUS y el SCImago Journal & Country Rank (SJR) como indicadores de citación en la generación de conocimiento y su impacto global (3). Estos han permitido valorar la producción, difusión, consumo y repercusión de la información científica. Otros analizan la cantidad de publicaciones científicas elaboradas por grupos de autores o revistas, la cantidad de ellas incluidas en bases de datos como el Science Citation Index (SCI) y el Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) del Institute for Scientific Information –ISI-, la obsolescencia y aislamiento de las referencias bibliográficas o su clara alusión como la visibilidad, influencia o impacto.

Authors: Cadena Eliana , Delgado Jessica , Peña Diana , Sánchez Paola , Gutiérrez Sonia , Contreras Adolfo , Jaramillo Adriana , Contreras Anilza Bonelo
Published: August 2019

Objective: Toothbrush contamination is important to the oral health and the general health. Toothbrush is recommended to the regular elimination of the bacterial plaque; however it is also a potential source infection since it gets contaminated. Antibacterial toothbrushes were introduced to control the microbial contamination.
Materials and methods: The effectiveness of antibacterial toothbrushes on the growth inhibition of A. actinomycetemcomitans, and E. cloacae were determined. This study included, three brands of dental brushes which were Oral-B® antibacterial Colgate® antibacterial I and as control one conventional dental brush non-antibacterial of Colgate.
Materials and methods: A total of 48 dental brushes were inoculated, 24 with A. actinomycetemcomitans and 24 with E. cloacae and the microbial viability was established after diverse times as follows: 24 hours, 4 days, 12 days and 24 days, in an experiment for duplicate, evaluating the bacterial growth.
Results: At 24 hours the dental brushes fulfill their antibacterial efficacy including the conventional dental brush, The Oral-B® antibacterial toothbrush and the Colgate® antibacterial controlled completely the growth of the colonies of the A. actinomycetemcomitans, while the Oral-B antibacterial toothbrush allowed E. cloacae’s growth. Finally after 24 days it was found that the inoculation the dental brushes does not inhibited either the A. actinomycetemcomitans or neither the E. cloacae.
Conclusions: The antibacterial brushes are able to inhibit the growth of A. actinomycetemcomitans between 24 hours to 4 days, but this antibacterial effect is lost over the time. A super-infectious microorganism such as E. cloacae is more resistant to antibacterials present on dental brushes.
Supernumerary teeth classification: a literature review
Authors: Cruz Edison Andrés
Published: August 2019

Supernumerary teeth are a variation of the number and morphology of teeth which its etiology has not been completely understood. They could be found not only in the maxilla and jaw but in ectopic locations thus, becoming difficult the diagnosis and treatment. Due to its role in the formation of diastema, crowding, cyst, root resorption, tooth impaction, it is important to use a diagnosis guide that lead the selection of proper treatment for the patient. The objective of this review article is to provide a contemporary appraisal focused on the diagnosis, classification and management of supernumerary teeth, in order to aid clinical decision-making.
