Authors: Veeraboina Nagarani , Doshi Dolar , Kulkarni Suhas , Patanapu Shiva Kumar , Dantala Satya Narayana , Srilatha Adepu
Published: August 2022

Background:

Oral diseases seriously impair the quality of life (QoL) in a large number of individuals and they may affect various aspects of life.

Aim:

To determine the relationship between tooth loss and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) among adult dental patients.

Study Setting and Design:

A cross-sectional study was carried out among 296 adult dental patients aged 35–44 years attending Department of Oral Medicine and Radiology of Panineeya Institute of Dental Sciences and Hospital, Hyderabad, India.

Materials and Methods:

Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) was used to assess OHRQoL. Dentition status and periodontal status according to WHO criteria 2013 and position, number of teeth lost by Batista et al. (2014) tooth loss classification were assessed.

Statistical Analysis:

Mann–Whitney U test and analysis of variance were used to find prevalence and severity of OHIP-14 with tooth loss and logistic regression analysis to evaluate the association between OHIP-14 prevalence and severity based on variables.

Results:

Except for the subjects with history of previous dental visit, variables such as gender and reason for dental visit showed significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) with tooth loss. Males subjects, who visited dentist with a history of pain, presence of periodontal disease and tooth loss up to 12 teeth (score 3) emerged as significant predictors for OHIP-14 prevalence (OR = 6.7, OR = 1.13, OR = 3.31).

Conclusion:

The study strongly evidenced that number and position of tooth loss had negative impacts on OHRQoL.

Authors: Chugh Ankita , Patnana Arun Kumar , Kumar Pravin , Chugh Vinay Kumar , Singh Surjit
Published: August 2022

Introduction:

Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most common ulcerative diseases affecting the general population. The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficiency of 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse prescribed along with the topical anesthetic gel and vitamin supplement over the topical anesthetic gel and vitamin supplement prescribed alone for treating RAS.

Materials and Methods:

A total of 60 participants were randomly divided into two groups—experimental group: 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse prescribed along with vitamin supplement and topical anesthetic gel; and control group: vitamin supplement and topical anesthetic gel alone. The pain symptoms were evaluated using the VAS scores at baseline and first follow-up visits. The data were analyzed using Student's t test.

Results:

A significant reduction in the pain scores was observed in participants using the 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse prescribed along with vitamin supplement and topical anesthetic gel on the first follow-up visit (P = < 0.001).

Conclusion:

The 0.5% minocycline mouth rinse prescribed along with vitamin supplement and topical anesthetic gel had shown more reduction in the pain symptoms when compared to topical anesthetic gel and vitamin supplement prescribed alone for the treatment of RAS.

Authors: da Costa Vieira Lanna Cristina Gonçalves , Campos Adriano Rocha , Senna Plinio Mendes , Reis Perez Cesar dos
Published: August 2022

Context (Background):

Resin composites are the most widely used material for restoring cervical defects. However, the high failure rate of these restorations is still a concern.

Aims:

The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate, using microtomography (μCT), the interfacial gap and voids formation in Class V cavities in premolars restored with materials with lower polymerization shrinkage combined with different restorative techniques.

Settings and Design:

Cervical defects were created in 30 intact premolar and were randomly distributed to be restored by one of the following techniques (n = 6): Composite resin with two increments (CR), organic modified polymer (ORMOCER) with single (OR1) or two increments (OR2, or low viscosity bulk-fill composite resin with single (BF1) or two increments (BF2).

Methods and Material:

Each tooth was scanned before filling to determine the volume of interest (VOI) to be applied in the second μCT after restoration and to control the cavity volume among the groups. In the μCT after filling, the volume of interfacial gaps and voids was calculated for each group.

Statistical Analysis:

The groups were compared using one-way and Tukey HSD post hoc test (α = 0.05).

Results:

It was possible to identify higher gap formation in the OR1 group and higher void formation in CR group (P < 0.05). OR2 group showed better results than the group with one increment. BF2 showed the best filling capacity.

Conclusions:

It was possible to conclude that the material and the number of increments directly influenced the internal adaptation and voids formation of Class V restorations.

LA INCIDENCIA DEL POPULISMO PENAL EN EL DELITO DE FEMINICIDIO
Authors: Arley Julissa Valderrama Carlín
Published: August 2022

Este artículo parte de la coyuntura que actualmente tienen los medios de comunicación y como estos influyen en el delito de feminicidio, el objetivo es determinar de qué manera incide el Populismo Penal en el delito de Feminicidio, al cual se arribará delimitando cómo la presión mediática influye en la opinión pública de la ciudadanía; estableciendo la relación que existe entre la figura jurídica del populismo penal con el delito de feminicidio y demostrando cómo la presión mediática tergiversa la configuración del delito de feminicidio. Para el desarrollo de este artículo se ha tenido como base el método científico. El método empleado es hipotético deductivo y la técnica es la encuesta, como instrumento se ejecutó el cuestionario. Los principales resultados obtenidos son que: la presión mediática si incide en el delito de feminicidio de diversas maneras, muestra de ello es el aumento en la sanción del tipo penal, el mismo que en un primer momento estipulaba una pena de no menos a 15 años en sus primeros incisos y actualmente se encuentra tipificado con una pena no menor a 20 años. Se concluye que el populismo penal incide de diversas maneras en el delito de feminicidio, tal y como lo demuestran los resultados pues el 46% considera que incide en la sanción del delito, mientras que el 16% considera que influye en incremento del delito pues no solo tergiversa la configuración del tipo penal obviando los criterios establecidos en nuestro código adjetivo, sino que además aumenta la sanción del mismo y el morbo en la población, sin que se cumplan los objetivos de disminuir y finalmente erradicar la violencia contra la mujer, ya que por el contrario esta se encuentra incrementándose.

LA BRECHA DE GÉNERO Y SALARIAL EN EL PERÚ
Authors: Victoria Judith Chuco Aguilar
Published: August 2022

Las políticas que apuntan a mejorar las condiciones económicas de las mujeres en Perú no han producido los resultados deseados. Por eso es necesario identificar las áreas en las que se pueden implementar reformas para mejorar la situación económica de las mujeres. El presente estudio desarrolla cómo las distinciones entre hombre y mujeres afectan el lugar de trabajo tanto en el salario como en el empleo, y cómo el género puede afectar el pago por el mismo trabajo. Asimismo, es crucial conocer la situación actual de las mujeres en la alta dirección. La reducida participación femenina en puestos ejecutivos se debe a los roles de género que tradicionalmente desempeñan las mujeres en el hogar, su nivel educativo, los roles tradicionales de género para las mujeres en la sociedad y los roles de los hombres en la minería, la tecnología y la construcción. Si no se investigan adecuadamente las razones de la falta de acceso de las mujeres a oportunidades de empleo de alta calidad y actividades económicas, esto se considerará una discriminación económica. El estudio en esta área sobre las razones detrás de la disparidad en los salarios entre mujeres y hombres está motivada por la necesidad de determinar si el género es una de las causas de estas diferencias. Uno de los problemas identificados durante el estudio fue el fenómeno del techo de cristal y el papel del Estado para abordar el problema. Este estudio examina el papel de las mujeres en el Perú y su desarrollo actual y la forma en que se utilizan. En la parte final se presentan las conclusiones de la revisión documental realizada.

EVALUATION OF GGE OF DIFFERENT PROCESS FOR DRYING ORANGE SLICES
Authors: Gökalp Zeki , Çetin Necati
Published: August 2022

Just because of burning fossil fuels and the fact that renewable energy sources (solar, wind, hydraulic, geothermal, biomass, tidal, wave etc.) have not become widespread globally, many parallel environmental problems such as global warming, climate change and carbon emissions have been emerged. In the present study, two different orange cultivars (Valencia and Washington Navel) were dried under different air-convective conditions (50, 55 and 60°C). Samples were sliced three different thickness as 5, 7 and 9 mm, respectively. In addition, three different drying time was selected for orange drying as 8, 9 and 10 h, respectively. The effects of a single unit air convective drying of 1 kg product on greenhouse gas emissions (GGE) of different types of power plants (wind, solar, hydroelectric, and geothermal) were investigated. Present findings revealed that while the greatest GGE were obtained from the geothermal power plant, the lowest values were obtained from the wind power plant. Besides, increasing CO2 emissions were encountered with increasing drying time and sample thickness. Additionally, CO2 emissions had a decreasing trend at higher temperatures.

Although finally proved, but the Theorem never stopped being a challenge mainly because the first proof didn’t used mathematics known in Fermat’s era. In the present work we arrive at a very important conclusion for the Theorem. If this conclusion is taken into account, the formulation of the Theorem should be different.
A Current View of an Old Problem: Risk Factors for Gastric Cancer
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas, Arriazola Jorge Eduardo Escobedo
Published: August 2022

Several risk factors are described for gastric cancer. Helicobacter pylori infection and a family history of gastric cancer are the two main risk factors for gastric cancer. Gastric cancer has significant geographic, ethnic, and socioeconomic differences in distribution. This review article will discuss risk factors for gastric cancer. The molecular cascade of events underlying colonic-type gastric cancer and its distinct precursor lesions is not fully understood. In contrast, much more is known about the molecular pathogenesis of diffuse gastric cancer, which has prominent molecular abnormalities in the cell adhesion protein E-cadherin. Today, gastric cancer remains a major clinical challenge because of its prevalence, poor prognosis, and limited treatment options. Therefore, one of the main goals of the World Health Organization and researchers is to organize a GC prevention programme

Tecnologia de Informação e Comunicação e Linguagem: o aplicativo WhatsApp e os impactos na Língua Materna
Authors: Dos Reis Rozivânia Moreira , Fernandes Flávia Gonçalves
Published: August 2022

Nas últimas décadas, as chamadas Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TICs) tiveram um avanço extraordinário e, quando se acompanha a divulgação dos recursos tecnológicos desenvolvidos recentemente, percebe-se a evolução dessas tecnologias, as quais estão inter-relacionadas com a linguagem (língua) por se tratar de tecnologias de informação e comunicação. Com olhar mais atento e linguístico, constata-se que as mudanças não ocorrem apenas no âmbito tecnológico, mas também no linguístico, pois a língua, sendo um organismo social, tende a adequar-se às mudanças sociotecnológicas que nossas sociedades vêm sofrendo. Esse contexto impulsiona a proposta deste trabalho de estudar as relações e impactos das TICs na língua portuguesa, analisando o uso do aplicativo WhatsApp. Os materiais e métodos utilizados foram: entrevista com os usuários via formulário do Google Forms preenchido on-line por internautas das cidades de Aurora do Tocantins, Lavandeira, Combinado, Novo Alegre e Arraias, no estado do Tocantins, e Campos Belos e Monte Alegre de Goiás, no estado de Goiás, com o retorno de 31 participantes. O estudo permitiu concluir que existe uma mudança no modo como o homem se comunica, a qual, contudo, não apresenta risco à mudança no signo linguístico da língua portuguesa, como estudiosos e linguistas temem. Notamos uma nova modalidade de comunicação com o uso das tecnologias, que é a linguagem da internet, a qual em nenhum momento substitui a língua portuguesa em contextos comunicativos.
Assessing Growth Performance and Yield of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) Using Slow-Release Fertilizer
Authors: Suhaimi Ayu Nazira , Abdul Latif Nurul Syaza , Md Zain Norhafizah
Published: August 2022

The agricultural sector has contributed to environmental pollution, such as water and air pollution caused by the fertiliser used in agriculture is lost into the river or to the air through the leaching process. Studies in the literature have shown that slow-release fertiliser (SRF) application could help overcome the leaching problem as it releases its nutrients slower. In other words, SRF is expected to help maintain the nutrients' availability in the soil for a more extended period and extends the plants' nutrient uptake efficiency. The experimental design for this study was completely randomized design with 4 different treatments T0 (control) was treatment without fertilizer application; T1 (SRF applied once in a month); T2 (CF applied once in a month); T3 (SRF applied twice in a month) and T4 (CF applied twice in a month). This study aimed to compare the plant growth rate (plant height, number of leaves and plant yield) of using SRF and conventional fertiliser (CF) on okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench). This study shows that SRF does show a good option to promote the growth development of okra (plant height, number of leaves and chlorophyl content) but not on the yield.

Analysis of failed receptions in the profile of “pediatric surgery” in polyclinics of the NEAO of Moscow in 2021
Authors: Ignatev Evgeny A. , Vasilyeva Tatiana M.
Published: August 2022

Introduction. The availability of medical care is one of the indicators of the quality of medical care. Every day, during the work of doctors, there is a non-appearance of patients for appointments without canceling the appointment. This plays a significant role in limiting the availability of medical care. Purpose. To analyze the indicators of failed appointments with a pediatric surgeon during 2021 in polyclinics of the North-Eastern Administrative District of Moscow. Methods and materials. The evaluation of records to a pediatric surgeon during 2021 was carried out in four children's polyclinics of the north-eastern district of Moscow. Failed receptions were divided into groups depending on the time of recording, the age of the patient, the sex of the child and the method of recording, a retrospective analysis of these groups was carried out. Results. The total share of failed appointments in the field of “pediatric surgery” in the North-Eastern Administrative District of Moscow was determined. Males were more often registered with the surgeon – out of 84 459 in 48 718 cases (57.4 %), females – in 35 741 cases (42.6 %). The proportion of no-shows was 18 % and 17 %, respectively, but the differences are not significant (p=0.25). When analyzing absenteeism in relation to the age of patients, it was noted that children from 0 to 3 years of age have the minimum part of absenteeism – 13.4 %, and children aged 6–13 years old – in 21 % of cases (significant differences p=0.001). It was also found that the maximum share of non-attendance at appointments relative to the recording time falls on 16–20 hours – 20 %, and the minimum – from 8 to 12 hours, which is 15 % of cases (p=0.001). Conclusion. Informing about the possibility of canceling an appointment with a doctor should be carried out more intensively in a group of parents of schoolchildren. The introduction of a rule to clarify with legal representatives about attendance at an appointment by phone, when making an appointment in the evening, may result in a decrease in the proportion of absences. The important contribution of patients and their legal representatives to the formation of such an important indicator in the work of medical organizations as accessibility was noted.

Introduction. For many years, the issues of diagnosis, planning and surgical treatment of adult patients with neoplasms of the parotid salivary glands (PSG) have remained relevant. Objective: to identify the features of the specialized medical care provided to adult patients with PSG neoplasms. Materials and methods. We analyzed the statistical data of specialized medical care provided to patients with PSG neoplasms in institutions of the Department of Health of the city of Moscow. To characterize the patients, a sample of medical documentation of 302 patients who were on inpatient treatment at the Maxillofacial Hospital for War Veterans was conducted for the period from January 2017 to April 2022. Results and discussion. The study group included 116 men (38.41%) and 186 women (61.59%), aged 19 to 81 years (mean age 52.27 ± 0.23 years). All patients underwent surgical intervention on the PSG with the dissection and preservation of peripheral branches of the facial nerve. As a result, the study group of patients was divided into 3 subgroups: the 1st – with benign neoplasms (n=258), the 2nd – with malignant neoplasms (n=24), the 3rd – with tumor-like lesions (n=20). Some features of diagnostics and planning are revealed, algorithm of surgical treatment are discussed. Conclusions. Despite the significant development of both diagnostic methods and surgical intervention techniques, there is a need to improve clinical recommendations and treatment protocols with a clearer indication of criteria in choosing surgical treatment. Medical care for adult patients with PSG neoplasms should be carried out on the basis of specialized centers, which will minimize the number of diagnostic errors and postoperative complications.

Government hospital kitchens in Malaysia have been certified with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) to ensure that cooked food is clean and safe for consumption. However, the performances of the Food Safety Assurance System (FSAS)-certified government hospital kitchens have not been evaluated. Although researchers in Malaysia have assessed the knowledge, attitude, and self-reported practices (KAP) on food safety (FS) and hygiene among food handlers, they did not relate the influence of food handlers’ KAP on the performance of the FSAS. The objective of the study was to relate food handlers’ KAP on FS and hygiene to the FSAS performance in government hospital kitchens in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Four government hospital kitchens implementing different kinds of FSAS certification were evaluated. Critical sampling locations were identified, and samples were taken and examined for Escherichia coli, Total Yeast and Mould Count (TYMC), Staphylococcus aureus, Total Plate Count (TPC), and Salmonella. The average scores of knowledges on FS and hygiene for ≤ 30 years age group, ≤ 5 years in the employment group, and food handlers with tertiary education were the highest and significantly different compared with the other groups. The FS output of government hospital kitchens implementing stringent FSAS was better (score of 2–3) than kitchens implementing less stringent FSAS (score of 2). The multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that the correlations among the overall percentage scores of KAP and the FS output were not significant (p > 0.05). Therefore, it appeared that food handlers’ KAP on FS and hygiene did not influence Salmonella, E. coli, and S. aureus levels and, therefore, the FSAS’ performance.

Passion fruit is a short-term crop with a life span of up to 2 years. Nowadays, passion fruit captures increasing demand in the global market. However, passion fruit is considered an underrated fruit in Malaysia as the production has not reached commercial cultivation. Highlighting the passion fruit as the next important commodity could rejuvenate the economy by disseminating equal benefits for both small and large-scale growers. This article provides a perspective on underlining the fruit to be explored as a commercial commodity. The fruit consists of three main components: juice, seed, and peel. Each of the fruit components has unique properties that can benefit multiple industries. In addition, strategies for successful passion fruit planting are also emphasised by farm management until the processing line produces high-quality fruit that can penetrate the global market. Therefore, a comprehensive review of passion as an essential crop could benefit Malaysia’s agriculture and processing industries.
