Electronic Health Records in Dental Education: A Scoping Review and Quantitative Analysis of Publications
Authors: Rebouças Pedro Diniz
Published: May 2023

The use of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) by dentists is already a reality in several countries, including Brazil, both in private practices and in higher education institutions, also providing data for oral health surveillance and epidemiology. The purpose of this scoping review was to search the literature for publications on the importance, applicability, efficacy and ease of the use of electronic medical records in dental education. Following the terms of the PRISMA-ScR, this review sought publications on the use of EHRs in dentistry schools. The databases used in the search were Pubmed, BVS, Web of Science, Scopus and ProQuest, without language limitations and publication period, using the terms ‘Dental School’, ‘Dental Education’ and ‘Electronic Health Records’. Initially, the search resulted in 548 articles. After reading the abstract, full text and removing duplicates, 63 were included. Then, it was divided in three groups according to main thematic: EHRs implementation (n = 25); Data obtained from Dental Schools EHRs used for publications (n = 26); EHRs system efficacy and challenges (n = 12). The use of electronic medical records in the teaching of dentistry collaborates positively with the development of students during graduation. We believe that this alternative of searching and collecting information will be increasingly used in epidemiological studies, due to its practicality and objectivity.
Potential Mesenchymal and Dental Pulp Stem Cell Usage for Regeneration of Dentine and Its Complications
Authors: Gallicchio Vincent S
Published: May 2023

Tooth decay is an extremely common problem throughout the nation. As individuals pass the age of 20 years old, 90% have had some form of tooth decay. Along with this, more than 1 in 4 people have untreated tooth decay in the United States. When tooth decay is left untreated, an infection or trauma can often result in needing a root canal and many other health problems. An average of 25 million root canals are performed every year, with around 40,000 being performed each day. Root canal treatment can result in pain or infection, as well as a weakened tooth that will be lost later in life. Due to the tooth pulp not being able to regenerate, there are many research studies being carried out to find a permanent and effective treatment. Mesenchymal and dental pulp stem cells are a large interest at this time due to their wide range of abilities to regenerate dentine and pulp in a tooth with necrotic tissue. While stem cells found in oral tissue are currently being studied in-vivo as well as in-vitro, the main focus is on producing the necessary types of stem cells for full dental tissue regeneration leading to complete re-gain of function. This review outlines the findings from recent years with stem cell usage in regeneration within the oral cavity.

Authors: ARI Adem , DEMİR Bilge , KESKİN Atila
Published: May 2023

Günümüzde ray ömrünü uzatan sıcak hadde sonrası kontrollü ve hızlı soğutmayla ray mantar sertleşmesi sağlanarak önemli ekonomik kazançlar elde edilmektedir. Ray kaynak metotlarından Aluminotermit kaynağı saha birleştirme yöntemi olarak günümüzde de önemini devam ettirmektedir. Kaliteli bir termit kaynağı yapmak için termit alaşımının sıkı denetimi ve ateşlemeden sıvı çeliğin hazneye dolmasına kadar geçen kademelerin kontrollü bir şekilde yapılması gerekir. Bütün bu ön koşullar tavsiye edildiği şekilde yerine getirilmiş olsa bile ve hatta mikro hatalar da olmasa, yine de kaynağın mekanik özellikleri rayın kendi özelliklerinden düşük kalır. Ray termit kaynağı, basitliği, taşınabilirliği ve ekonomisi nedeniyle demiryolu endüstrisi için değerli bir kaynak teknolojisidir. Bununla birlikte özellikle termal işlem ile üretilen R350HT mantarı sertleştirilmiş rayların birleştirmesinde yüksek ısı, kaynağın ulaştığı maksimum sıcaklık derecesine, bu sıcaklıkta kalma süresine ve soğuma hızına bağlı olarak kritik dönüşümlere sebep olabilmekte ve bunlar ray ömür ve performansını oldukça etkilemektedir. Bundan dolayı bu çalışmada R350HT mantarı sertleştirilmiş rayın Aluminotermit kaynaklı birleştirmeden kaynaklanan sertlik yapısının kaynak parametrelerine bağlı olarak değişimi ve gelişimi incelenmiş ayrıca ilgili uluslararası standartlara uygunluğu ve avantajları araştırılmıştır. Bu makale, esas olarak ısı tesiri altında kalan bölge (ITAB) olmak üzere, kaynaklı ray bağlantılarının sertlik değişimini etkileyen faktörler açısından incelemeyi amaçlamıştır. Deneysel çalışmalar da R350HT mantarı sertleştirilmiş ray numuneleri 120 cm uzunluğunda kesilerek hazırlanmış ve bu numunelere sow-5 yöntemli alüminotermit kaynağı uygulanmıştır. Esas kaynak bölgesiyle ITAB bölgesindeki boyuna sertlik taraması TS EN 14730-1+A1 standardı ile de karşılaştırılarak kritik yapılmıştır. SkV Elite L25 ve Pandrol firmasının PLA yöntemli termit kaynaklarının eğme ve yorulma deneyi sonuçları, standartları karşılamadığı için çalışmalara sow5 yöntemiyle kaynaklanmış ray numuneleriyle devam edilmiştir [7] Deney sonuçlarında sow5 yöntemli termit kaynağının istenilen standartlara en uygun yöntem olduğu bulunmuştur. Deneysel sonuçlar bu çalışmada kullanılan parametrelerle üretilen kaynaklı birleştirmelerin bu standartlara uygunluğunu göstermiştir.

Background: The surging prevalence of hypertension due to lifestyle brought forth an increase in degenerative diseases. Adherence is important in achieving the effectiveness of therapy. This study aims to analyze the factors affecting medication adherence in patients with hypertension. 
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between 20-24 February 2023 at Turirejo Village, Lawang District, Malang, Indonesia. Participants were hypertensive patients currently receiving treatment. The MMAS-8 questionnaire was used to classify adherence to medication for hypertension. Analysis with binary logistic regression test was performed on variables to display odds ratio values was conducted at a significance level of p<0.05.
Results: A total of 37 adults diagnosed with hypertension participated in this study. Patients were dominantly consisting of elderly (≥ 56 years old; 73.0%) and females (86.0%). Seventy-six percent of patients have low adherence, twenty-four percent of patients have moderate adherence, and no patient has high adherence. Duration of illness, knowledge, and attitude variables significantly affect adherence (low and moderate) to medication for hypertension. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with a duration of illness above 10 years (Adjusted OR 18.27; 95% CI 1.72-194.47; p-value 0.016) and positive attitude towards treatment (Adjusted OR 12.76; 95% CI 1.25-130.40; p-value 0.032, respectively) increase the possibility of moderate adherence towards the medication of hypertension.
Conclusion: Improvements in factors that affect adherence to hypertension treatment are needed to increase the success of the Non-Communicable Disease Prevention Program. Further research in identifying factors of economic capacity and access to health service providers is needed to validate the results of this study.

Published: May 2023

Cancer-related wounds are still one of the healing challenges that are still faced by various health practitioners, where these wounds are often unsightly and associated with foul odor, drainage, and bleeding. Wounds caused by malignant tumors have a wide range of symptoms and severity, thus there is no treatment that has been demonstrated to be able to relieve them effectively. The use of wound dressings, which have antibacterial advantages and are helpful for treating wound infections as well as preventing wound contamination, is one method of wound care. Natural substances known as polyphenols, which are often created by plants, have potential antibacterial and antioxidant properties. G-90 is a mixed macromolecular substance with glyco-lipoprotein properties that aids in tissue regeneration in vivo, particularly when it comes to wound healing. Plenty of flavonoids are present in the polyphenolic chemicals produced by necklace worms (Pheretima aspergillum). Flavonoids contribute to the formation of cross-links with collagen, which can have the impact of accelerating wound healing and the decline in inflammatory cells like macrophages. In this situation, Pheretima aspergillum, which has G-90 glyco-lipoproteins and polyphenols, may be useful for healing malignant wounds.

The hand is one of the most important parts of the human body and its ability to perform everyday tasks is fundamental to the performance of daily life. The epidemiology of catastrophic hand injuries is varied, depending on the type of injury. These can be caused by car accidents, sports accidents, industrial accidents, and in some cases, acts of violence. Catastrophic hand injuries can also result from diseases, such as osteomyelitis or hand cancer. Advances in medical technology and surgical procedures have allowed surgeons to improve precision and control in repairing injuries to nerves, blood vessels, bones, tendons and skin.

The government of Kenyan with an aim of enhancing the system of education standardreplaced the 8.4.4 with 2.6.3.3.3. This crucial change was deemed necessary globally since it ensures development of current job market knowledge-based skills. The study’s purpose was to carry out an investigation on teachers’ competence and its influence on effective implementation of Competency Based Curriculum (CBC). The objectives of the study are: Establishing the teachers’ competence based on; values, attitudes, knowledge and skills; to find out the extent of CBC implementation; establishing the constraints hindering CBC effective implementation and to find out the attitudes of teachers towards CBC. Curriculum Implementation Theory by Gross, (1971) was used. Descriptive survey design was applied, and it targeted 79 public primary schools, 941 TSC teachers, 79 deputy head teachers and 79 head teachers in Machakos County. Target population was 20% and it entailed a sample size of 16 schools, 16 head teachers, 16 deputy head teachers and 188 public primary school teachers selected through stratified random sampling. An interview schedule, questionnaire and an observation checklist acted as the data collection tools. Piloting of the instruments of research took place in three selected public primary schools mainly to ensure objectives coverage and clarity of content. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were applied in field data collection. Quantitative analysis of data in descriptive statistics used percentages and frequency counts. Qualitative data analysis used a thematic approach which focused on research objective through description guided by the given responses. Representation of the report for analysis used frequency tables, pie charts and bar graphs. The study findings indicated that the yearly teachers’ in-service training was adequate. Various constraints hindered effective implementation and they included lack of enough learning and teaching materials and high teacher-pupil ratio .Several recommendations were made to MOE, KICD and TSC which include: In-service training to aid in creation of positive attitude towards the curriculum for its effective implementation should be organized by MOE; the ministry should also aim at ensuring adequacy of teaching and learning resources in schools; the increased enrolment in public school require government provision in building the classrooms and more teachers need to be employed by TSC to cater for increased teacher-pupil ratio. This will aid in effective implementation Competency Based Curriculum in Kenya.

Authors:   Business Administration Department, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Universitas Diponegoro, Maulina Gilda
Published: May 2023

Firm value is crucial for every company, but agency problems that arise due to conflicts of interest between managers and shareholders can reduce the value of a company. Based on agency theory, one mechanism to reduce agency problems is the implementation of good corporate governance and ownership structures. Therefore, this study aims to predict whether there is an influence between corporate governance and ownership structure on firm value. This research was conducted on companies in the LQ45 index during the 2020-2022 period. Researchers obtained 87 units of analysis which were then analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). This study's results are corporate governance has a positive and significant effect on firm value. However, ownership structure does not affect firm value. Future studies can use different samples, extend the observation period, use other indicators to measure each variable, and use a broader framework.

Background: Chronic nitrous oxide (N2O) poisoning induces irreversible inactivation of vitamin B12, affecting two biochemical reactions essential for the proper functioning of the body. The prognosis is excellent when adequately and quickly treated. We present the case of a 23-year-old Caucasian woman with symptoms caused by chronic N2O inhalation. Case Presentation: A 23-year-old Caucasian woman was admitted to the emergency department with complaints of confusion and gait disturbance. Following an in-depth history and laboratory tests, chronic N2O poisoning was confirmed, and vitamin B12 supplementation was initiated promptly. Conclusion: Our case demonstrated the clinical presentation and biological changes typical of N2O poisoning. The misuse of N2O is prevalent due to the easy accessibility of cylinders over-the-counter since a few years. Recreational misuse of N2O has been observed in young populations. It is important to raise awareness among emergency physicians and nursing staff regarding increases in their consumption. Treatment involved vitamin B12 supplementation and long-term addiction monitoring

Published: May 2023

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by narrowing of the respiratory tract. Deterioration of pulmonary ventilation occurs, as a result of which tissues and organs are insufficiently supplied with oxygen.

The aim. To review scientific literature sources and provide data on the impact of physical activity on patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The research method. The review covered scientific literature sources from the period between 2009 and 2021. Electronic scientific literature search was carried out on PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane Database Syst. Rev., using keywords and their combinations. Full-text and freely accessible English-language articles were included. A total of 18 literature sources were considered appropriate.

The results and conclusions. COPD is characterized by coughing, shortness of breath, sputum production, and changes in blood gases. The effect of gas (stimulus) damages lung tissue. Low tolerance to physical exertion significantly complicates respiratory function. COPD is a progressive disease. One of the main COPD stimuli is shortness of breath, which restricts daily physical activity and may have a decisive impact on disability development. Age, behavioural risk factors, emphysema, chronic obstructive bronchitis, and metabolic syndromes are predisposing risk factors for COPD. As the disease progresses, physical activity decreases. Passive physical activity manifests itself in symptoms of shortness of breath and fatigue.

Published: May 2023

Human Capital Development has been the crux of any nation’s development and it has lasting benefits and spiral effects. Nigeria has witnessed increased economic growth without a corresponding increase in employment and human capital development indicators. It is on this ground that, the study set to examine the effect of human capital development on economic growth through employment in Nigeria from 1986-2021. The study is anchored on four theories viz; the Solow growth, the Keynes employment model, the Endogenous growth model, and Human Capital Theory. The study relies strictly on secondary data sources further, the study used descriptive and inferential statistics methods. Using the Augmented Dickey-Fuller test (ADF), stationarity test results show that all variables were stationary at first difference. The study further employed variance decomposition, impulse response Structural Vector Autoregressive (SVAR) model to test for Hypotheses. The study found a positive and weak transmission between human capital development and economic growth through employment the result is significant at 5% significant level. The study concluded that there is insufficient funding of human capital to spur economic growth through employment. Therefore the study recommends that government should increase expenditure on education and encourage and promote academic excellence with appropriate remunerations such as granting scholarships, employment, training, and re-training of excellent students.
World War Two Simulated
Authors: Carbonell Curtis
Published: May 2023

This book examines how World War Two is simulated through serious computer games, such as first-person shooters, flight and tank simulators, and grand strategy games. It argues that a particular dynamic emerges in these ‘simgames’, especially when curious players begin to look beyond gameplay for how to understand the past. This points them toward a wide range of ‘simtexts’—anything from game manuals or online resources such as YouTube, to published material in the popular sphere or even monographs by professional historians. This is important because major events like World War Two continue to feature in a wide range of game genres, and this engagement demonstrates how we are learning about the past outside of traditional mechanisms such as classrooms, teachers or textbooks. Utilizing interdisciplinary methods, this volume foregrounds the experience that simgames provide to players, especially in how they reconfigure and reimagine history. Despite its visceral power and instructive potential, the simulated digital experience created by simgames curates World War Two and other global events of similar magnitude within constrained frames that ignore much of what actually happened in the past. This suggests that as computer games continue to increase in power and fidelity—as seen with the expanding scope of virtual reality—then the range of what can be simulated will grow too. This will raise concerns about what is morally acceptable to be simulated, and what should remain unplayable.

Published: May 2023

Este trabalho é um artigo que trata da influência do Pensamento Decolonial no ensino de Cálculo Diferencial e Integral. A temática decolonial no ensino tornou-se um tema muito discutido nos últimos anos e tem ganhado grande relevância devido a sua importância no processo de ensino e aprendizado. Este é um trabalho de cunho qualitativo realizado por meio de uma Revisão de Literatura que objetiva analisar a forma como a Colonialidade se apresenta no processo de ensino e aprendizado em Cálculo, evidenciando, nesse contexto, a ação e a importância do Pensamento Decolonial. Os resultados da pesquisa foram satisfatórios e demonstraram que a colonialidade é um fato marcante no ensino de Cálculo devido sua origem geográfica, o qual desvaloriza as ideias e conhecimentos produzidos por outros povos. Em contrapartida, o Pensamento Decolonial é o motor que tem quebrado esses paradigmas, valorizado e dado voz aos povos subalternizados que também produzem o conhecimento. Para o alcance dos resultados, a utilização de quadros sínteses foram cruciais para a análise dos dados coletados.
OSTEOMA CUTIS ASSOCIADO À DERMATITE CRÔNICA PROVOCADA POR SUCESSIVOS PROCESSOS INFLAMATÓRIOS: RELATO DE CASO
Authors: Lima da Silveira Leonardo , Monteiro dos Santos Felipe Augusto , Mucare Eduardo , Romualdo Rodrigues Andressa
Published: May 2023

Osteoma cutis é uma doença rara caracterizada pela presença de tecido ósseo na camada da derme e hipoderme. Possui etiopatogenia incerta, a qual se baseia em duas principais teorias, a desordem embriológica com acúmulo de células mesenquimais que se diferenciam em osteoblastos e a teoria do fenômeno de metaplasia de células mesenquimais que diretamente formam fibroblastos que produzem tecido ósseo em locais anômalos. Uma de suas possíveis etiologias é a inflamação crônica provocada por outras afecções. Nesse relato é apresentado o caso de uma paciente, de 55 anos, que apresentou osteoma cutis, com antecedentes de lesões dermatológicas associadas à exposição importante ao sol, as quais evoluíram gradativamente com o tempo.  Com destaque para as lesões: rosácea não granulomatosa e acne. O objetivo desse relato é descrever o curso da doença e suas características clínico-histológicas. O relato descreve o curso da doença e discute relacionando com fatores de risco e progressão com cronificação, porém carece de diferentes fontes sobre a enfermidade, dessa forma, ilustra a necessidade de novos estudos sobre o assunto para elucidar o desfecho da doença.

Authors: Fernandes Gambôa Rafael , Santos José Ailton dos
Published: May 2023

A ozonioterapia consiste em um tratamento que utiliza o ozônio de forma terapêutica. A ação biológica do ozônio se assemelha em termos farmacológicos com a ação de uma molécula complexa composta por um ativo biológico e seu transportador, tendo em vista a sua capacidade de prover reações com outras substâncias tornando-as ativas e promovendo ativação de cascatas bioquímicas. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o uso tópico do ozônio no tratamento da gordura localizada. A justificativa para este trabalho está na necessidade de implementar novas formas de tratamento. A metodologia utilizada para o presente trabalho foi a revisão integrativa da literatura através de uma pesquisa eletrônica. Com base no exposto, conclui-se que a ozonioterapia, através de suas diversas modalidades terapêuticas (aplicações sistêmicas ou locais: transcutânea, intradérmica e subcutânea), tem agregado muito aos procedimentos estéticos, principalmente por sua efetiva ação adjuvante ou como o principal agente de alterações fisiológicas críticas para potencializar os resultados clínicos.
Bonferroni Mean Operators Based on Interval-Valued Picture Hesitant Fuzzy Information and Their Application in Decision-Making Problems
Authors: Ali Zeeshan , Mahmood Tahir
Published: May 2023

In this article, we invent the Bonferroni mean (BM) operators using interval-valued picture hesitant fuzzy (IVPHF) technique, called IVPHF Bonferroni mean (IVPHFBM), IVPHF-weighted BM (IVPHFWBM), IVPHF geometric BM (IVPHFGBM), and IVPHF-weighted geometric BM (IVPHFWGBM) operators. These presented techniques are very beneficial and valuable because these are modified versions of many existing techniques. Moreover, we also examine three basic properties of each presented operator. In addition, we demonstrate the technique of multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problem and try to describe it with the presence of evaluated techniques to show the capability and superiority of the invented theory. In last, we compare the prevailing techniques with presented studies to illustrate the supremacy and effectiveness of the derived approaches.

Molecular identification and detection of some virulence and antibiotic genes in Pantoea spp. isolated from clinical samples
Authors: Hameed Shahab Noor , Maher Abed Suha , Hasan Salih Maan
Published: May 2023

Introduction and Aim: Pantoea species, are Gram negative bacteria that belong to the family Erwiniaceae. These bacteria are opportunistic pathogens known to cause several clinical infections in humans. The purpose of current research was to study the prevalence and identification of Pantoea spp. based on 16S rRNA sequencing, as well as detect the presence of antibiotic resistance and virulence genes in samples isolated from clinical cases.
 
Materials and Methods: For the identification of Pantoea spp., DNA extracted from isolates were subjected to 16s rRNA amplification by PCR. Pantoea isolates were assessed for the presence of virulence (EsaI and ompA), and antibiotic (bacA, oqxB, qnrA, and ermB) genes using specific primers.
 
Results: Three new strains were recorded based on results of 16S rRNA sequencing. The virulence gene Esal was prevalent in all isolates (100%) tested while 15/16 (94%) of isolates had ompA genes. The antibiotic-resistant gene oqxB was found in all isolates (100%), followed by bacA (87.5%), qnrA (75%), and ermB (37%) genes.
 
Conclusion: Pantoea spp isolated from clinical samples were seen to harbor virulence as well as antimicrobial genes indicating the isolates to be pathogenic.

Published: May 2023

Introduction and Aim: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), is a frequently employed diagnostic procedure in identifying lymph node pathology. This study aims to categorise cytological aspirates from lymph nodes according to the Sydney system and in addition determine the likelihood of cancer occurrence in the classified categories.
 
Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study analysing lymph node cytology was performed retrospectively between January 2021 to December 2022, and the findings were classified into five groups from L1 to L5 as proposed by the Sydney System. By comparing the diagnoses with the corresponding histological diagnosis, statistical analysis was used to evaluate the probability of malignancy linked with each group.
 
Results: Out of 279 fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) tests performed for lymphadenopathy, 39 cases were compared with histopathological results. The cases classified to the categories L1, L2, L3, L4, and L5 were 11/279 (3.9%), 170/279 (60%), 2/279 (0.7%), and 93/279 (33%) accordingly. The likelihood of developing cancer was found to be 33.33%, 8.8%, 56.4%, 83.33%, and 94.74% for each group.
 
Conclusion: To achieve uniformity and repeatability in cytopathological diagnosis, the recommended Sydney method of lymph node cytology reporting and classification can be effective.

The ability of some species of vines to be biologically resistant to a number of negative factors of urban conditions, such as the increased concentration of heavy metals in soils and the environment, gas pollution and lack of area of nutrition and growth, makes them a priority in green construction. As a result of the studies, it was found that the most common species for vertical landscaping in the east of the Rostov region is Parthenocissus guinguefolia L. The nature of the accumulation of heavy metals by Parthenocissus guinguefolia L. leaves depends on the concentration of TM in the environment and the degree of anthropogenic load. In urban conditions, the highest concentration of lead, zinc and copper in the leaves is recorded in the upper part of the vines. And cadmium accumulates in the leaves of the lower part under increased anthropogenic loads. At a height of 60 cm to 120 cm on all test areas there is a minimum accumulation of heavy metals in the leaves of the girl's five-source grape.

Liberalismo: ¿recrear una hegemonía?
Authors: Santos Victoria César Eduardo
Published: May 2023

El presente ensayo discurre como un diagnóstico del liberalismo en el presente. Sin dejar de lado el despliegue histórico del proyecto liberal en occidente, nuestro artículo pretende dar cuenta de tres momentos críticos en el supuesto triunfo de la democracia liberal después del fin de la Guerra Fría. Tales momentos refieren a los atentados terroristas del 9/11, la crisis financiera del 2008 y el ascenso del trumpismo cuyo punto álgido se hizo patente en los ataques al Capitolio del 6 de enero del 2020. Todos ellos socavaron, de acuerdo a la tesis sostenida en nuestro texto, a algunos de los fundamentos normativos del liberalismo: respeto, tolerancia, igualdad y la democracia misma. Fueron, además, el punto de partida para las críticas iliberales mejor recibidas entre las sociedades occidentales y no occidentales, dirigidas al problema de la globalización, la inmigración y el multiculturalismo. Ante ello, esbozamos la recuperación de un nacionalismo liberal, al tiempo que proponemos la defensa internacional de los valores del liberalismo a través de instancias multilaterales.
