Social media provides an effective tool to reach, engage, and connect smokers in cessation efforts. Our team developed a Facebook group, CAN Quit (Connecting Alaska Native People to Quit smoking), to promote use of evidence-based smoking cessation resources for Alaska Native people living in Alaska, which are underused despite their effectiveness. Often separated by geography and climate, Alaska Native people prefer group-based approaches for tobacco cessation that support their culture and values. Such preferences make Alaska Native people candidates for social media–based interventions that promote connection. This viewpoint discusses the steps involved and lessons learned in building and beta-testing our Facebook group prototype, which will then be evaluated in a pilot randomized controlled trial. We describe the process of training moderators to facilitate group engagement and foster community, and we describe how we developed and tested our intervention prototype and Facebook group. All parts of the prototype were designed to facilitate use of evidence-based cessation treatments. We include recommendations for best practices with the hope that lessons learned from the CAN Quit prototype could provide a model for others to create similar platforms that benefit Alaska Native and American Indian people in the context of smoking cessation.
The Hungarian-Jewish Social Contract, its Rupture, and Jewish Death Rituals
Authors: Remz Sean
Published: December 2021

This article explores the supposedly reciprocal social contract between “Greater Hungary” and its Jewish population from the “Golden Age” of the Dual Monarchy to its rupture in the Holocaust. The afterlife of this broken contract will be addressed through the upkeep and neglect of cemeteries in Subcarpathia and Hungary proper. Along the way, I present memoiristic vignettes that illustrate the challenge of loyalty to state / military authority and death rituals in the time of the 1918-1919 Hungarian-Romanian War, Jewish mourning in the context of Czechoslovakia’s loss of Subcarpathia, and the disjuncture between the normal praxis of death ritual and the spectre of Auschwitz-Birkenau, as well as the ritual contrast to Hungarian Jews who were deported, but not to Auschwitz. I also turn to the historical research of Tim Cole and Daniel Rosenthal, in conjunction with Hungarian (especially North-Transylvanian) Holocaust memoirs, to reflect on Holocaust-era suicide as a mode of victims’ resistance to their brutalization by Hungarian gendarmes -- the pinnacle of the betrayal of the erstwhile contract between Hungarian state authority and its Jewish population.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of temperature on the growth and survival of mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) larvae in two stages including zoea-1 to megalopa (the first experiment) and megalopa to crablet-1 (the second experiment). Each experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with four temperature levels (27, 30, 33, and 36℃) in triplicate. Stocking density of 200 ind./L for the first experiment and 4 ind./L for the second experiment. Fiberglass tanks of 500-L (containing 300-L and 250-L of 25‰ water for the first and second experiment, respectively) were used in the experiments. The results showed that S. paramamosain larvae at zoea-3 and zoea-4 died at 33℃ or above, while the highest survival rate of this stage was found at 27℃ (11.5%). The growth and larval stage index during the zoea to megalopa stage were significantly higher in 30℃ (p<0.05) compared to those in the 27℃ treatment. In the second experiment, the survival rates of crablet-1 were highest (72.9%) at 27℃ and lowest (34,7%) at 36℃. The growth rate of crablets at this stage increased with increased temperature. The highest carapace width and weight (3.41 mm and 0.030 g, respectively) were recorded at 36℃. The findings of this study suggested that mud crab larvae should be reared at the temperature range of 27-30℃ to maximize their production.

Published: December 2021

The study on the procedure of applicating bacteriophage (or phage) to prevent rice bacterial grain rot caused by Burkholderia glumae was conducted in the greenhouse conditions. The first experiment investigated the effect of different phage titers (i.e. 105 PFU/mL, 106 PFU/mL, 107 PFU/mL, 108 PFU/mL) in controlling bacterial grain rot of rice. The results showed that all four titers gave disease reduction with different levels, among these were the titer of 108PFU/mL expressed highest efficacy in disease reduction with the lowest percentage of infected grains compared to the rest treatments. The second experiment examined the effect of phage application times (i.e. spraying phage at 2 hours before pathogen inoculation, 2 hours before and 5 days after pathogen inoculation, and 5 days after pathogen inoculation) in suppressing bacterial grain rot disease. The results found that two treatments (i.e. one time spraying at 2 hours before pathogen inoculation, and two times spraying at 2 hours before and 5 days after pathogen inoculation) expressed high efficacy in reduction of grain rot disease through percentage of infected grains and improved yield parameter regarding rate of filled grains.

Published: December 2021

Guava, Psidium guajava L., is well-known tropic tree which is abundantly grown for fruit. It belongs to phylum Magnoliophyta, class Magnoliopsida and Myrtaceae family and has been found a lot in the Mekong Delta of Viet Nam. Antioxidant activity of different extracts from Psidium guajava L. leaves revealed that ethyl acetate and n-butanol extracts have the good activities. Processing of these fractions using repeated column and thin layer chromatographic techniques resulted in the isolation of four compounds, which have identified their chemical structures by spectroscopic techniques including avicularin (1), kaempferol (2), gallic acid (3), and protocatechuic acid (4). All the isolated compounds showed antioxidant activity using DPPH and ABTS scavenging assays. These results suggest that the leaves of guava  would be useful natural sources of antioxidants.
Potensi Limbah Cair Batik sebagai Sumber Bioenergi (Studi Kasus di UKM Batik Blimbing Malang)
Authors: Pangestuti Martasari Beti , Utami Reny Nurul , Suhartini Sri , Hidayat Nur
Published: December 2021

Batik merupakan salah satu produk kebanggaan bangsa Indonesia, yang umumnya diproduksi oleh usaha kecil menengah (UKM). Peningkatan permintaan batik mendorong adanya peningkatan jumlah UKM batik serta jumlah limbah cair batik yang dihasilkan. Masih banyak UKM batik yang membuang limbah cairnya langsung ke lingkungan yang berpotensi menimbulkan pencemaran pada tanah dan air. Hal ini disebabkan oleh belum adanya fasilitas pengolahan limbah yang memadai, sesuai dengan kondisi yang dialami oleh UKM Batik Blimbing Malang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi potensi pengolahan limbah cair batik secara anaerobik untuk memproduksi biogas sebagai sumber energi terbarukan. Pada penelitian ini digunakan teknologi anaerobic digestion yang dioperasikan secara batch dengan kondisi mesofilik (37 °C) tanpa pengadukan, dikenal sebagai uji biochemical methane potential (BMP) dengan waktu pengamatan selama 28 hari. Sampel yang diuji meliputi penambahan 100% limbah cair batik dengan berbagai variasi volume. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa limbah cair batik memiliki kandungan bahan pencemar organik yang tinggi, yaitu sebesar 8.651 mg/L (BOD) dan 54.700 mg/L (COD). Hasil uji BMP juga menunjukkan rendahnya biogas yang dapat diproduksi dari limbah cair batik. Kondisi ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor antara lain tingginya kandungan COD, ammonia, zat pewarna beracun, dan nisbah C/N yang berpengaruh negatif terhadap pertumbuhan mikroorganisme.

Authors: Hidayah Sevi Sulistiani
Published: December 2021

Penelitian ini membahas kegiatan  preservasi pengetahuan arsiparis di Dinas Kependudukan dan Catatan Sipil Kota Semarang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melestarikan pengetahuan arsiparis agar tidak terjadi organization memory loss. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan action research (penelitian tindakan). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa belum adanya kegiatan pendokumentasian pengetahuan arsiparis. Hal tersebut disebabkan terbatasnya keterampilan arsiparis dan kesibukan arsiparis yang menumpuk sehingga kegiatan pelestarian pengetahuan tidak menjadi prioritas. Tindak lanjut dari kegiatan pelestarian pengetahuan yaitu dibuatnya buku saku sebagai media penyimpanan pengetahuan arsiparis. Pembuatan buku saku dilakukan melalui beberapa tahapan yaitu tahap perencanaan (planning), tahap tindakan (acting), tahap pemantauan (observing) dan tahap refleksi (reflecting). Pembuatan buku saku dilakukan dengan melakukan diskusi dan merencanakan tindakan dengan menerapkan analisis 5W+1H. Pada tahap tindakan dilakukan diskusi dengan informan untuk membuat struktur dan konten buku saku. Pada tahap pemantauan dilakukan observasi menyeluruh dengan mempertimbangkan kritik dan saran dari arsiparis terhadap buku saku sehingga didapatkan buku saku yang siap diterapkan. Tahap refleksi belum dapat diterapkan karena belum adanya pergantian arsiparis. Penerapan pelestarian pengetahuan arsiparis yang tertuang dalam buku saku diharapkan dapat menjadi penghubung antara arsiparis sebelumnya ke arsiparis selanjutnya. Sehingga, tidak ada lagi competency gap antara satu generasi dengan generasi selanjutnya.

Published: December 2021

В волоконных световодах, сердцевины которых легированы парамагнитными примесями Gd+3 (0,4 ат. %) и Tb+3 (1 ат. %), измерены парамагнитные вклады в константы Верде. Установлено, что линейная зависимость константы Верде от малых концентраций парамагнитных примесей в сердцевине оптического волокна требует нелинейных поправок, когда концентрации существенно превышают 1–2 ат. %. Данное явление объясняется образованием обменных пар ионов парамагнитных примесей, обменных троек и т. д., вероятность появления которых обладает такой же зависимостью от концентрации парамагнитных примесей. Обменные пары магнитных моментов усиливают воздействие магнитного поля на образец и являются предвестниками магнитных доменов в ферромагнитных материалах.

Application of Machine Learning Algorithms for Solving Problems in the Oil and Gas Sector
Authors:   Kalashnikov ISTU, Maiorov K. N.
Published: December 2021

The paper examines the life cycle of field development, analyzes the processes of the field development design stage for the application of machine learning methods. For each process, relevant problems are highlighted, existing solutions based on machine learning methods, ideas and problems are proposed that could be effectively solved by machine learning methods. For the main part of the processes, examples of solutions are briefly described; the advantages and disadvantages of the approaches are identified. The most common solution method is feed-forward neural networks. Subject to preliminary normalization of the input data, this is the most versatile algorithm for regression and classification problems. However, in the problem of selecting wells for hydraulic fracturing, a whole ensemble of machine learning models was used, where, in addition to a neural network, there was a random forest, gradient boosting and linear regression. For the problem of optimizing the placement of a grid of oil wells, the disadvantages of existing solutions based on a neural network and a simple reinforcement learning approach based on Markov decision-making process are identified. A deep reinforcement learning algorithm called Alpha Zero is proposed, which has previously shown significant results in the role of artificial intelligence for games. This algorithm is a decision tree search that directs the neural network: only those branches that have received the best estimates from the neural network are considered more thoroughly. The paper highlights the similarities between the tasks for which Alpha Zero was previously used, and the task of optimizing the placement of a grid of oil producing wells. Conclusions are made about the possibility of using and modifying the algorithm of the optimization problem being solved. Аn approach is proposed to take into account symmetric states in a Monte Carlo tree to reduce the number of required simulations.

This paper presents a model of business improvement management of the company's organizational system. This model is implemented through the developed structural and logical model of value management of the organizational system, based on the concepts of the World and Russian Quality Awards and the ISO 9000 series standards. It presents tools such as cultural regulation, rules of joint activity, motivation system, administrative regulation and evaluation of the implementation of concepts for improving the company's organizational system. The formalization of the management model, which takes into account all the factors influencing sustainable development, is a multi-stage mathematical model that works with a given tolerance to achieve the planned criteria in a continuous mode. The criteria for the development of the company's organizational system are formed based on the strategy and policy in accordance with the accumulated experience. Based on the analysis of the previous five-year development and modern capabilities of the company's organizational system, a strategic indicator of the degree of development is determined for each criterion. With the help of the proposed model, an assessment is made for: - integral indicators of the company's organizational system in relation to working with the consumer; - indicators of total leadership of the organizational system and its personnel; - indicators of the total use of the talent and creativity of the staff; - integral indicators of the flexibility of the organization's management. The proposed model of business improvement management of the company's organizational system allows to: - flexibly organize the optimal effective work of the company's organizational system, using the most relevant tools; - continuously evaluate the effectiveness of the development of the company's organizational system in accordance with modern concepts of business improvement.

When studying different fast-moving processes, high-speed video recording is now widely used. The main deterrent for its further distribution remains the high cost of the necessary equipment. Herewith modern mobile devices (including smartphones) are constantly improved, some models are supplied with video cameras with high recording speed - 1000 frames/s and higher. In the paper the possibility of creating a measuring system based on one of the modern smartphone models to analyze the parameters of object motion is studied. The block diagram of the system is given; a layout of such a system has been created. To verify the workability of the developed model of the system, a software and hardware facility was developed to imitate the motion of an object on the Arduino Uno platform with an engine and a carriage moving along the guides. Graphs of changing the coordinates and speed of the object obtained using the program Tracker 5.1.5 are shown. A theoretical estimate of the error in determining the speed of an object using the implemented model of the system is performed. In addition, the estimation of the range of object speeds that can be measured using the developed system, as well as the range of permissible object movements was performed. The results of the performed experiments prove the possibility of creating a measuring system on the basis of the considered model of the smartphone to assess the speed of moving small objects with certain limitations. At the same time, to create a full-fledged measuring system that does not require additional processing of the received resulting video image on a PC and is capable of calculating the necessary results immediately after the end of the measurement process, it is necessary to develop our own software, which is advisable to do using the existing free libraries.

Published: December 2021

The object of this paper is to create a system that can control any vehicle in any gaming environment to simulate, study, experiment and improve how self-driving vehicles operate. It is to be taken as the bases for future work on autonomous vehicles with real hardware devices. The long-term goal is to eliminate human error. Perception, localisation, planning and control subsystems were developed. LiDAR and RADAR sensors were used in addition to a normal web Camera. After getting information from the perception module, the system will be able to localise where the vehicle is, then the planning module is used to plan to which location the vehicle will move, using localisation module data to draw up the best path to use. After knowing the best path, the system will control the vehicle to move autonomously without human help. As a controller a Proportional Integral Derivative PID controller was used. Python programming language, computer vision, and machine learning were used in developing the system, where the only hardware required is a computer with a GPU and powerful graphical card that can run a game which has a vehicle, roads with lane lines and a map of the road. The developed system is intended to be a good tool in conducting experiments for achieving reliable autonomous vehicle navigation.
Duties and Responsibilities of Staff Nurse- A Study
Authors: K. U. Dr. Vinay.
Published: December 2021

Abstract: Nursing has come a very, very long way in the past century. However, some of the challenges highlighted by nurse leaders in the late 1800’s to early 1900’s, still face the profession a century later even though their exact nature might be somewhat different. Throughout the history of nursing, most of the challenges can be linked to the gender and class barriers faced by women in society and the ever-present economic demands of the healthcare industry.The Staff Nurse is the first level professional Nurse in the hospital set up. Therefore by appearance and by word she will be professional at all time. Taking a walk through the history of nursing, the shortage of nurses appears to have been a problem from the time when the value of trained nurses in hospitals and the community was recognized. From the mid-1800’s, when scientific developments in Western medicine increasingly led to successful treatment, hospitals changed from places where the sick and destitute were cared for to institutions where the ill were admitted for treatment. The time was ripe when Florence Nightingale introduced formal training of nurses, and since then, it appears that the demand for qualified nurses increased exponentially. The objective of obtaining state registration for nurses was the priority issue for nurse activists from the 1880’s. At the Chicago World’s Fair, British nurses introduced the nurse leaders from all over the world to the idea of state registration for nurses as well as the issue of standards for nurse training schools, which would satisfy a requirement to introduce registration. The struggle for state registration was at the time also the main driving force behind the establishment of nursing organizations in various countries.

Published: December 2021

Introdução: A proposta de rotulagem nutricional de alerta em triângulos tem sido apontada atualmente por diversos pesquisadores e entes governamentais, como a que possibilita melhor compreensão do rótulo pelos consumidores. A referida proposta descreve que informações como excesso de ingredientes ou nutrientes com baixo valor nutricional sejam destacadas nos rótulos por cores e símbolos (triângulo) que chamem a atenção do consumidor. Objetivo: Analisar a compreensão de consumidores sobre o modelo de rotulagem nutricional de alerta em triângulos em comparação com o rótulo atualmente utilizado no Brasil. Método: Estudo transversal, realizado com 108 adultos, abordados aleatoriamente por conveniência, enquanto participavam de duas feiras de saúde, ocorridas em um município mineiro, nos meses de abril e maio de 2019. Os participantes foram entrevistados com base em um questionário que, além de caracterizá-los, buscou investigar seus comportamentos quanto à rotulagem e sua compreensão sobre o modelo de rotulagem nutricional de alerta em triângulo. Foram apresentados dois rótulos de alimentos (biscoito salgado e óleo de soja) elaborados a partir da proposta de triângulos. Os resultados foram analisados por distribuição de frequência e associações entre compreensão do rótulo e características dos participantes (teste qui-quadrado de Pearson). Resultados: Entre os participantes, a maioria era de mulheres, com graduação ou ensino médio. Verifcou-se que 81,00% dos entrevistados compreenderam que o alerta frontal em triângulo indicava os componentes em excesso no alimento e 68,00% que o destaque em amarelo na tabela nutricional indicava excesso de ingrediente. Quando comparados o rótulo usado atualmente e a proposta de rotulagem em triângulo, 88,00% dos entrevistados preferiram a nova proposta. Conclusões: Houve maior aceitação da proposta de rotulagem nutricional de alerta em triângulos em relação ao atual rótulo adotado no Brasil, especifcamente em função da facilidade de leitura e de compreensão do rótulo e do alerta para a quantidade e a qualidade nutricional dos alimentos.

Authors: K. Caroline Sunitha , Arvind Muthukrishnan , R Ramesh
Published: December 2021

One of the most common symptoms in the orofacial region is pain. Trigeminal neuralgia is characterized by pain affecting the trigeminal nerve and its related areas of distribution and is known to have significant impact on the quality of life. Misdiagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia has been reported by dentists in several previous studies in the literature. With this rationale, the aim of the present study is to determine the most commonly involved nerve branch and the side affected in trigeminal neuralgia patients. The present retrospective study involved 72 patients diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia who reported from October 2013 to October 2014. Data regarding the age of onset, gender, side of involvement was analyzed from their clinical records. Out of the 72 patients, males were 42(58.3%) and females were 30(41.7%). In our study, a total of 56 % (i.e., 40) patients showed involvement on the right and 44% (i.e., 32) (i.e, 32) patients on the left side of the face. In this retrospective study, ophthalmic branch (V1) was affected only in 3 patients. Mandibular nerve (V3) alone was involved in 24 patients. Involvement of all the three divisions V1, V2 and V3 was seen in 16(22.3%) of patients. Clinical similarities of trigeminal neuralgia that have an impact on different populations were demonstrated in this study. Detailed history and proper identification of involved nerve branch play an important role in the diagnostic accuracy and treatment satisfaction. Most involved branch in our study was the mandibular (V3) branch and the most affected side was the right side. Correlation of systemic factors with trigeminal neuralgia can be attempted in future research.

Based on written and field sources, this article examines kumis holidays, rituals and ceremonies in historical retrospect and modern reality. According to Chinese, Armenian, Central Asian sources of the 13th–17th centuries, the ritual significance of kumis is shown which for centuries retained the role of the main ceremonial attribute in the framework of military rituals and sacrifices in the culture of the peoples of Central Asia. Kumis was sprinkled on military standards on the eve of the battle. It acted as a sacrificial libation to Heaven, the cardinal points, and the mountains. Kumis was a prestigious drink and an obligatory treat both in the nomad tent of a simple steppe dweller and at state receptions and festivals of the great steppe empires. This drink served as the main treat at the feast. The order of its distribution semantically designated the hierarchies in the steppe empires. In the Kazakh steppe, the traditions of kumis ceremonies and holidays continue, according to ethnographic sources of the 19th–20th centuries, to maintain stability. In the twentieth century, the prestigious nature of kumis among the Kazakhs is still noted, and the ritual character of kumis treats is indicated. Currently, kumis in Kazakhstan still plays the role of a prestigious drink, which is present not only in calendar rituals but also in feasts organized as part of the rituals of the life cycle. Field studies carried out in July-September 2021 give reason to speak not only about the sustainability of kumis holidays within the framework of the spring and autumn calendar rituals, but also their actualization as an element of intangible cultural heritage and an application for setting a world record. In contrast to the Middle Ages, in the ceremony of treating kumis today, a change in the nature of the religious rite and purpose is noted. The complex of kumis holidays that arose in ancient times is considered today by Kazakhs as a cultural heritage, as a place of memory. It is used as a symbolic capital for organizing and carrying out various kinds of events.

In this article, the Kurban rite (animal sacrifice), which occupies an important place in the Gagauz calendar and family rituals, is analyzed through the prism of Orthodox identity. The form and content of various varieties of this rite are considered, as well as its role and significance in the ethnocultural code of the Gagauz people. The author especially dwells on the study of the qurban of the church, in which the elements of Christian-pagan syncretism are clearly manifested. Based on the analysis, it is concluded that over time, the Kurban rite among the Gagauz people acquired the form of a ritual institution and became an important component of Orthodox rituals. The fact that it has survived is not a small merit of the Orthodox clergy. The article provides information that in the second half of the 20th – early 21st centuries. As a result, the ritual acquired a more Christianized form, but, despite this, some of its archaic features continue to be preserved. It is emphasized that in the Gagauz folk-religious culture this form of sacrifice is associated with the Old Testament tradition – the Abrahamic sacrifice, the plot of which is widely represented in the Gagauz song folklore. It is concluded that both the ethnic component of the Gagauz Orthodoxy and their characteristic Balkan cultural and regional identity are clearly expressed in private and general holiday celebrations, of which Kurban is an integral part. In conclusion, it is noted that the Kurban rite continues to remain an important part of the Gagauz Orthodox rituals and identity, being an integral component of their ethnocultural code. This is evidenced by the degree of preservation of this institution of sacrifice and its significance in the religious and folk ideas of the Gagauz people.

Published: December 2021

The article highlights the main directions of scientific work of Nail Alfredovich Khalikov, a well-known Russian ethnographer who studied the life and traditional economy of the Tatars, the author of significant academic works on the ethnography of the people. The main research of the scientist is related to the collection and interpretation of ethnographic sources (expedition, museum, archival, visual) and preparation for publishing “Historical and Ethnographic Atlas of the Tatar People”, where he was the author and a permanent member of the editorial board. In the 1970s–2000s, rural settlements of the Volga-Ural Tatars (Tatarstan, Udmurtia, Chuvashia, Bashkiria, Mari El, Kirov, Penza, Nizhny Novgorod, Ulyanovsk, Perm, Orenburg, Chelyabinsk regions), then Astrakhan (Astrakhan, Saratov regions) and Siberian Tatars (Tyumen, Omsk, Tomsk regions) were examined according to a special program developed by N.A. Khalikov. As a result of that work, a source base on traditional farming, including agriculture and folk crafts, as well as numerous monographs, publications in scientific collections, articles in the multi-volume “Tatar Encyclopedia” was created. Currently, N.A. Khalikov’s expedition materials (field diaries, photographs, sketches and drawings) have been partially digitized and are stored in the archive of the Marjani Institute of History of the Tatarstan Academy of Sciences.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of the chemical polishing, when compared to the mechanical polish, in the sorption, solubility and microhardness of a heat-polymerizable acrylic resin. The heatactivated acrylic resin used was Clássico (Art. Odontológicos Clássico Ltda., S.P.). The properties of sorption and the solubility were tested in accordance with International Organization for Standartization (ISO) specification n. 1567, making 20 samples in the format of disks, divided aleatory in two groups, where the first group received lhe mechanical polish with abrasive pastes, and the second, the chemical polish during IOS, in the chemical polisher PQ 9000 (série 4868-2, Termotron do Brasil Ltda., Piracicaba, SP). The samples were maintained in a desiccator with silica gel, at 37 DC, until the moment they reached constant mass (M1), obtained in a scale with resolution of 0,0001g. The samples were submerged in distilled water, at 37 Uc, for 7 days, when it was Obtained new mass value (M2). The difference between M1 and M2 divided by the volume Of each sample resulted in the sorption. The samples were desiccated again until they reach constant mass (M3). The difference between M1 and M3 divided by the volume of each sample resulted in the solubility Of the same ones. For the Knoop microhardness measurement, were made 20 specimens of acrylic resin, of which 10 samples received the mechanical polish and the others, the chemical polish. The Knoop microhardness test was made with a NU Research Microscope (VEB Carl Zeiss JENAGermany). The results indicated that the technique of the chemical polish is acceptable when considered the sorption property, even so unviable with the solubility property, in accordance with the specification n.1567 of ISO. The chemical polish also reduced significantly the superficial microhardness of the acrylic resin, which consequences can interfere in the clinical performance of the material.

Aims: evaluate the differences of infiltration by apical surface after apicoectomy and different kinds of root finishing. Materials and method: Sixty human cuspids were endodontically treated and received apicoectomy, and were divided in three alleatory groups. Group I received no finishing after the apicoectomy. Group II received standard multifluted bur finishing. Group III received the same finishing of group II, plus brunishing bur. Root surfaces and canal were coated with nail polishing except apical surface. The roots were immersed in 2% methylene blue for 72 hours. Infiltration in internal root surfaces was measured using millimetred magnifying glass by one "blind" examinator. Data were submitted to ANOVA. Results: Group I presented higher infiltration values than groups II and III. These two groups had no statistical difference, although group III showed lower values. Conclusions: finishing of apical surfaces after root resection using multifluted burs have reduced infiltration by dentine. Additional finishing using brunishing burs could even reduce the infiltration, with no statistically significant differences.

The correlation between TMJ's growing, structure and function is consensual in the specialized literature. Until the moment, the little knowledge about post-birth changes are studied by observation of condylar growth and disc reestructuration. In an experimental model in rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus 1.), it was observed tecidual alterations of the TMJ's components — mandibular condyle, articular disc and temporal bone, face to a direction change of mandibular power axis, which has the incidence upon these structures. Twentyfour rabbit were divided in four groups. Two of each group formed a control group. Four experimental periods were established 15, 30, 60 and 90 days. The animals from the experimental group were submitted to surgical procedure involving the mandible right side, changing the direction of mandibular power axis, which has incidence in the TMJ. Histological observations of TMJ in the control group, at different times, the growth and development of this structure were showed, compatible to the normality. At experimental group, the change of mandibular power axis caused alteration of the mandibular condyle and the discal structure. Significative responses at temporal bone were observed too, as a process of osseous modelation, suggestive of growth of this cranial structure.
