A perda completa dos dentes representa uma das situações clínicas mais desafiadoras na Odontologia, não apenas devido à sua complexidade no tratamento, mas também pelos impactos profundos na saúde bucal e na qualidade de vida do paciente. A ausência dentária compromete não apenas a função mastigatória e a estética, mas também pode desencadear problemas como desordens da articulação temporomandibular, distúrbios digestivos e dificuldades na fala.  Além disso, a espera pela regeneração tecidual e óssea para a confecção das próteses convencionais pode ser angustiante para os pacientes, que muitas vezes enfrentam desafios emocionais e sociais devido à ausência de dentes. A prótese total imediata (PTI) surge como uma solução que aborda essas preocupações, oferecendo aos pacientes uma restauração estética e funcional imediata após a extração dos dentes remanescentes.  No entanto, é essencial que os profissionais de saúde considerem cuidadosamente as vantagens e desvantagens da PTI, especialmente em relação ao custo-benefício a longo prazo e à necessidade de ajustes frequentes durante o período de cicatrização. Uma abordagem personalizada, baseada nas necessidades específicas de cada paciente, é fundamental para garantir resultados satisfatórios e melhorar sua qualidade de vida.

Published: June 2024

Obserwowane ocieplenie klimatu, wywołane wzrastającą emisją CO2 do atmosfery, generuje powstawanie zjawisk klimatycznych o intensywnościach wykraczających niekiedy ponad wartości graniczne przyjmowane w kombinacjach oddziaływań przy projektowaniu obiektów budowlanych. W ostatnich latach w różnych obszarach Polski rejestruje się występowanie silnych wiatrów i gwałtownych trąb powietrznych. Wywołane przez nie szkody prowadzą do wielomilionowych strat ponoszonych przez budżet państwa, firmy ubezpieczeniowe oraz prywatnych właścicieli budynków. Straty obejmują zakresem infrastrukturę budownictwa mieszkaniowego, drogowego i energetycznego, zniszczenia dotykają również terenów zielonych i majątku ruchomego. Z tego względu konieczne stają się działania zmierzające do ograniczenia szkód wywołanych przez wiatr, np. poprzez właściwie opracowane plany zagospodarowania przestrzennego, odpowiednie kształtowanie bryły budynku i jego elementów oraz projektowanie i wdrażanie w wykonawstwie rozwiązań konstrukcyjnych przeciwstawiających się obciążeniom wywołanym również przez silne wiatry.

A sífilis patologia infectocontagiosa e sistêmica possui como agente etiológico a espiroqueta anaeróbia Treponema pallidum. Pode ser dividida em: Sífilis adquirida, Síflis gestacional (SG) e Sífilis congênita (SC). A SC pode ser prevenida quando a gestante infectada é tratada adequadamente em cerca de 97% dos casos, visto que essa doença é considerada curável e os recursos terapêuticos são disponibilizados gratuitamente no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). É necessário garantir acessibilidade aos exames de rastreamento o mais. A realização e o acompanhamento do pré-natal são fundamentais para que essa porcentagem seja atingida. O objetivo do trabalho é compreender melhor o impacto dessa infecção em gestantes e suas repercussões congênitas e o manejo da equipe de enfermagem no desenvolvimento de intervenções mais eficazes e direcionadas, visando melhorar os resultados de saúde e reduzir as disparidades nessa população vulnerável. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa   de caráter descritivo e abordagem qualitativa, com análise de literaturas científicas que nos remetam ao objeto de pesquisa, realizada por meio da busca de artigos nas bases de dados Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS), Bases de Dados de Enfermagem (BDENF) e Scientific Eletronic Library Online (SciELO) publicadas no período de 2015-2023. Aproximadamente 2 milhões de mulheres grávidas são infectadas com sífilis a cada ano no Brasil a prevalência média da sífilis gestacional varia entre 1,4% e 2,8%, resultando em 25% na taxa de transmissão vertical.  A sífilis na gestação exige intervenção imediata para diminuir a chance de transmissão vertical. Os principais fatores que interferem na ocorrência de SG na adolescência estão relacionados a renda familiar e escolaridade materna, pois estes são os principais determinantes da realização de pré-natal adequado. A importância do pré-natal e do número adequado de consultas considerando-se que esta estratégia possibilita a implementação oportuna de protocolos de cuidados para prevenção da transmissão vertical. O enfermeiro desempenha um papel crucial nesse processo, aplicando medidas adequadas para o controle da transmissão vertical da sífilis. A assistência de enfermagem frente ao diagnóstico de sífilis gestacional na adolescência e suas repercussões ao concepto, é evidente que o enfrentamento desse desafio requer uma abordagem multifacetada e centrada na adolescente.

Published: June 2024

This paper presents a comprehensive study of the dynamic responses of machine foundations, both block and pile foundations, on stratified residual soils in Duri and Ulubelu, Indonesia. The evaluation was conducted using two widely recognized methods: the lumped mass method (LMM) and the finite element method (FEM). LMM and FEM were performed by utilizing DYNA and ABAQUS, respectively. The analysis results showed that LMM generally predicted more conservative displacements compared to FEM. This conservatism in predicted displacement was more pronounced for pile group foundations, which are inherently more flexible than block foundations. Additionally, this study found that the resonance frequencies obtained through both analysis methods were not the same. Furthermore, this paper includes a parametric study and presents its results to assess the influence of key factors, i.e., pile cap thickness, pile diameter, number of piles, and vertical dynamic loads, on displacement.

Full comprehension of precipitation patterns is crucially needed, especially in Pekan, a district in Pahang, Malaysia. The area is renowned for its elevated levels of precipitation, making it imperative to precisely categorize and enhance the analysis of rainfall patterns to facilitate effective resource allocation, agricultural productivity, and catastrophe readiness. The variability of rainfall patterns is contingent upon geographical location, necessitating the collection of a comprehensive data set that includes several characteristics that influence precipitation to make reliable predictions. Data were collected from the Vantage Pro2 weather station, which is located on the UMP Pekan campus. This study used the RT method to classify rainfall and T-Method 1 to determine the degree of contribution of each parameter. Significant parameters were validated using a data set from the same type of weather station but in a different district. The results showed that the Mahalanobis-Taguchi Bee Algorithm (MTBA) is more effective than the Mahalanobis-Taguchi System (MTS) in finding the significant parameters, but the parameters were a subset of MTS Teshima. Finally, the validation with T mean-based error (Tmbe) using Mean Absolute Error (MAE) revealed a pattern of errors to provide insight to find the significant parameters of MTS.

Published: June 2024

Introduction: Suicidal ideation is the presentation of self-destructive thoughts in apparently normal adolescents, it is a key predictor of future suicide attempts or completed suicide; worldwide and Ecuador, it is a significant public health problem, the etiology is multifactorial, the approach is difficult due to several factors such as social stigma, personal fears and denial, difficulty expressing their feelings and thoughts, several scales have been designed. . that help for early diagnosis and prevention, the main evaluation methods are Beck, Plutchik and ISO-30, intervention programs seek to create a protective environment through group and educational activities; Intervention strategies range from environmental awareness to cognitive-behavioral therapies. These programs seek to raise awareness, provide coping skills and support based on specific needs.
Objective: to carry out a systematic review that allows us to analyze and determine the approach, risk factors and evaluation scales of adolescents with suicidal ideation, using updated scientific evidence, with the purpose of facilitating health personnel in the early identification and diagnosis of the school adolescents with suicidal ideation to avoid a fatal outcome.
Method: an exhaustive search was carried out in PubMed, Google Scholar, SciELO and Redalyc using Boolean operators, articles in English and Spanish published in the last five years were analyzed, allowing the selection of original studies, systematic reviews and meta-analysis, in addition to exclude studies not relevant to the age group under study or that lacked a relationship with suicidal ideation.
Results: three key tools are described to evaluate suicidal ideation: the Plutchik Suicidal Risk Scale (ERSP), the ISO-30 Suicidal Orientations Inventory and the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS). The ERSP, adapted by Páez to Spanish, consists of 15 items and evaluates impulsivity, suicidal ideation and other related aspects. The ISO-30, validated in Spanish by Liporace and Casullo, addresses dimensions such as hopelessness, low self-esteem and loneliness, difficulty coping with emotional problems and suicidal thoughts. The BHS, developed by Beck, evaluates hopelessness and has 20 questions with true answers. or false, being a relevant indicator of possible suicidal behavior according to its total score.
Conclusions: suicidal ideation, suicide attempt and completed suicide have emerged as an important public health problem worldwide in the young population. In our country, the provinces of Pichincha and Azuay are the ones that have recorded the highest cases, the early identification of Suicidal ideation is crucial to prevent premature deaths, effective prevention and addressing require a comprehensive approach combining individual and community interventions, highlighting the importance of identifying risk factors and the implementation of preventive programs.

Background. Currently, articles based on polyethylene and polypropylene have become an important element to solve social needs. However, these products take between 100 and 1000 years to decompose. Therefore, the need arises to look for new strategies that allow the degradation of these products in a shorter period of time. Objetive. Determine the capacity of the larvae of Galleria mellonella L. (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) and Tenebrio molitor L. (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) to degrade bags, straws, glasses and face masks. Methodology. In the laboratory, five experiments were carried out with third and fourth instar larvae of G. mellonella and T. molitor. In each experiment, the treatments (bags, straws, cups, and masks) and the G. mellonella and T. molitor larvae were placed in a plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Afterward, the larvae were weighed every 24 hours for 10 days to record the consumption of the treatments. Results. In experiments 1 and 2, no statistical difference was observed in the consumption of polyethylene and biodegradable bags and straws by the larvae of G. mellonella and T. molitor. In contrast, a significant statistical difference was observed between treatments in the pupae record. In the results of experiments 3 and 4, a significant statistical difference was observed between the treatments in the consumption of glasses (polystyrene and polyhydroxyalkanoate) and in the development of pupae of G. mellonella and T. molitor. In experiment 5, no significant statistical difference was observed between treatments in the consumption of masks and development of G. mellonella pupae. Implications. In this research work, basic information was generated on the consumption of bags, straws, cups, and face masks by G. mellonella and T. molitor. In the case of the consumption of face masks, it is the first record of the consumption of this article by G. mellonella larvae. Conclusions. G. mellonella and T. molitor consume products based on polyethylene, polystyrene and polyhydroxyalkanoate, likewise G. mellonella consumes face masks, essential product to avoid infections during the pandemic generated by the COVID-19 coronavirus.

Background: Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are an integral part of the basic diet in Mexico and are one of the most important crops. Mexico is the seventh producer worldwide and one of the main consumers of it. Within Mexico, the state of Chiapas is the sixth-largest producer with 68,515 t per year, with a yield of 0.59 t ha-1. However, the excessive use of chemical fertilizer has degraded soil quality and increased production costs. Objective: To study the agronomic response of the bean crop treated with biofertilizers originated from livestock excreta through anaerobic digestion (effluents). Methodology: Variables plant growth variables seed germination, flowering, photosynthesis, and the presence of pathogens were compared. The treatment evaluated were soils treated with bovine manure (treatment 1) and swine manure (treatment 2) after anaerobic digestion, urea (treatment 3) as chemical fertilizer, and control without fertilizers (treatment 4). Results: In general, the use of biofertilizers improved the yield per plant, as well as accelerated the development of the plants compared to the control, which was attractive for the producers. In addition, the use of biofertilizers in the soil decreased the presence of pathogens and increased the microbial population, which can be beneficial in soil recovery. Implications: The cost of biofertilizer production was 13.5 USD for m3, which was cheaper than chemical fertilizers. However, a detailed analysis of the application costs of biofertilizers is recommended. Conclusion: The practice of using livestock effluents (biofertilizer) is proposed as a complement to agroecological practices to improve agricultural production and recover soil fertility in southern Mexico.

Background. The unstable climatic conditions can no longer be predicted by farmers. The unpredictability intensity of temperature and pattern of rainfall in cowpea production has affected the farmers’ decision on production practices and general productivity. Therefore, farmers are beginning to improvise on management practices to avert the effects of climate change to remain relevant and profitable in the business of cowpea production. Objective. To examine the farmers’ coping strategies used against the effects of climate variability for cowpea production in Kwara State, Nigeria. Methodology.  A multistage sampling technique was used to select 120 cowpea-based farmers. A structured survey questionnaire was used to collect primary data. Data were analysed with frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation while Pearson Product Moment Correlation was used to ascertain the relationship between socioeconomic characteristics and copying strategies used by farmers. Results. Majority (79.2%) of the respondents experienced high adverse effects of climate variability including abnormal rise in temperature (76.7%), irregular/unpredictable rainfall patterns (51.7%), and excessive rainfall (37.5%) on cowpea crop. The leading coping strategies used by farmers were use of fertilizer (x̄=2.73), herbicides (x̄=2.72), and planting early maturing variety (x̄=2.51). Farmers were mainly hindered by adequate irrigation facilities (x̄=1.72), inadequate access to extension services (x̄=1.66), and high cost of agrochemicals (x̄=1.60). Result education, cowpea farm size, years of experience in cowpea farming, membership in farmers group, and additional sources of information on cowpea production showed a positive significant relationship with the choice of coping strategies employed by cowpea farmers against the effects of climate change experienced at p<0.05 level. Implication. The study showed that abnormal rise in temperature and irregular rainfall patterns are affecting cowpea production and thus, some socioeconomic attributes significantly supported farmers’ choice of coping strategies employed against the effects of climate change and variability. Conclusion. The use of agrochemicals and cultivation of early maturing variety has played critical roles in coping with adverse effects of climate variability in cowpea production.

Background: The utilization of organic fertilizers is put forward as an effective approach to address soil degradation and enhance crop yields. Objective: To assess the impact of applying microbial consortia, in combination with fermented liquid fertilizer (biol), on maize grain production, with a focus on fostering sustainable family farming in dry tropical conditions. Methodology: A randomized complete block design with three blocks and divided plots was employed, with the main plots featuring various maize cultivars, while the subplots consisted of four bioferments and a control treatment. The bioferments included Microbial Consortium (CM), BIOL+CM, and BIOL+EM-1, compared to the commercial product Efficient Microorganisms (EM-1) and a control with no application. Parameters such as days to male and female flowering, plant and ear height, leaf area, grain diameter, and yield, along with the physical and chemical soil characteristics, were evaluated following the bioferment application. Results: The application of BIOL+CM to the Marginal 28T variety resulted in increased plant height (164.17 cm) and cob size (65.83 cm), as well as a larger leaf area (361.17 cm²). It also enhanced the grain yield of the Marginal 28T variety (3.42 tꞏha-1) and the HS-1 hybrid (3.02 tꞏha-1). Implications: The combined use of locally-sourced microbial consortia and Biol significantly improves the agronomic performance of hard yellow corn and aids in maintaining the soil's physical and chemical conditions, thereby promoting its enhancement. Conclusion: The Marginal 28T variety and the HS-1 hybrid exhibited a favorable response to the application of microbial consortia, particularly BIOL+CM, making it a viable option for family farming in dry tropical conditions.

Background. One of the main difficulties with carbon bonds lies in the ambiguity in the methods of measuring emissions reductions. The diversity of standards and protocols used to quantify emissions makes the effective comparison and evaluation of projects difficult. This lack of uniformity compromises the integrity of the evaluation system since the reliability of carbon bonds depends on the accuracy in measuring reductions. Objective. To quantify the organic carbon content in the soil of paramo ecosystems for commercialization through carbon bonds. Methodology. 366 cells of 100 x 100 m2 were set with the help of Geographic Information Systems software in each ecosystem. To determine the sites to be inventoried, the formula of finite populations was employed, while to determine the Social Cost of carbon, the costs per ton from the year 2011 until 2030 were considered, according to 2017 estimations of the World Bank. Results. A total of 399 482.25 tons of total organic carbon (COT) in the seven ecosystems situated in the study area, which equals 8 908 454.18 USD in carbon bonds that could be traded in international carbon markets. Implications. The results allow us to develop recommendations to contribute to the sustainability of paramo ecosystems. Conclusions. Under a monetary analysis of the price of the sale of carbon bonds and considering that in the best scenario they would be offered at a value of 22.30 USD, a value of 8 908 454.18 USD would be obtained, similarly in the worst scenario with a value of 2.97 USD, there would be a monetary value of 1 186 462.28, which would positively contribute to generating a sustainability project through the conservation and resilience of these high Andean ecosystems.

Background: Background: Morphological characterization studies and determination of the phenological cycle of quinoa in Colombia are scarce, which are necessary for the identification of new planting materials. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the phenological cycle of quinoa materials to identify early and late genotypes; study the morphological characteristics to identify discriminatory descriptors for the genetic improvement of this species in the Department of Cauca. Methodology: Fourteen families and three commercial controls (Blanca de Jericó, Aurora, and Tunkahuan) were evaluated in two locations in the department of Cauca under a completely randomized block design with four replications. Twelve phenological stages and 20 morphological descriptors were evaluated. The data were analyzed using an Analysis of Variance and Duncan's Multiple Range Test (p<0.05), in addition, a Multiple Correspondence Analysis was performed. The information was analyzed with the statistical package “R” version 4.3. Results: It was found that the Flia27 family was the earliest in Silvia and Totoró. The clustering analysis based on the 20 morphological descriptors grouped the 17 genotypes into five groups, differentiating the controls from the rest of the 14 evaluated families. The families were grouped to present an architecture with low stature and easy management, compact panicle form, and simple growth habit, in contrast to what was found in the controls which exhibited high stature, lax panicle, and branching up to the lower third. Implications: It is necessary to study with more homogeneous materials to determine which characteristics exactly are variable depending on the genotype and which show genotypic stability. Conclusions: Flia27 was the earliest, making it interesting to be included in a quinoa genetic improvement program. The most discriminatory descriptors were leaf shape, leaf margin, and panicle color.

Background. Dual-purpose livestock farming in the dry tropics is considered a relevant economic activity, characterized by the diversity of production units (PU), by the amount of milk and meat it provides, by the generation of employment in rural areas and by the production seasonal lack of forage to feed livestock, which limits their development. Objective. Typify dual purpose (DP) livestock PU in the southeast of the state of Michoacán. Methodology. Information on the structure, livestock management and economic indicators of the UP was obtained through structured surveys applied through direct interviews to 93 farmers. The data were analyzed by multivariate statistical methods. A Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was performed to standardize the information and a Cluster Analysis (CA) to typify UP. Results. Three types of DP PU were identified: a small-scale group oriented to the breeding and sale of calves and are more representative of the system, called subsistence (SPU); a second group with greater orientation towards milk production and diversification of the activity, called family (FPU) and a third group characterized by greater specialization in the meat sale, a greater number of animals and surface area and identified as business (BPU). Implications. The work made it possible to identify types of PU and the factors that favor or limit its development. Conclusions. The subsistence and family-type PUs predominate in these production systems, although their development is limited, while the more specialized PUs is not very representative of the livestock system under study but show better development indicators.
