Periodontal screening survey in dental students of the Federal University of Bahia using PSR
Authors: Dourado Viviane Coelho , Rapp Gisela Estela
Published: February 2021

Objetivou-se verificar, através do índice clínico Periodontal Screening and Recording (PSR), a condição periodontal em jovens estudantes do curso de Odontologia da Universidade Federal da Bahia no 2º período do ano 2000. A amostra constituiu-se de 269 estudantes estratificados do 1º ao 10º semestre letivo representativos da população total de 626 acadêmicos regularmente matriculados durante o referido período, de ambos os sexos, com faixa etária variando de 18 a 31 anos. A amostra apresentou-se homogênea quanto à variável sexo (p 0,05). Através da metodologia empregada considerou-se que o índice PSR foi de fácil execução e de elevada reprodutibilidade intraexaminador (correlação de Spearman, p 0,0001; r = 1 para os sextantes S2, S4, S5 e S6 e r = 0,96 para os sextantes S1 e S3). Apenas 21,93% da população estudada apresentou PSR código 0 e o código 2 foi o mais prevalente, 60,22%. O código asterisco encontrado representou recessão gengival, sem contudo apresentar significância estatística (p 0,05), assim como não houve diferença estatística entre os semestres letivos estudados (p 0,05). O fato do meio universitário não ter exercido influência na condição periodontal é discutido. Sugerem-se novos estudos epidemiológicos acerca das condições periodontais e sua distribuição em jovens universitários.
Saber pensar
Authors: Demo Pedro
Published: February 2021

Saber pensar é a teoria mais prática que existe, ou a prática mais teórica que existe. Já não cabe separar pensar de intervir, ainda que as duas atividades tenham sua tessitura própria. Pensar é atividade tipicamente mental e intervir é atividade eminentemente prática, mas ambas se entrelaçam e fazem um todo só12. Há outra face interessante do saber pensar que é a possível confluência entre epistemologia e política social. Do ponto de vista epistemológico, saber pensar supõe traquejo metódico para lidar de maneira adequada com o conhecimento e seu processo de construção, desconstrução e reconstrução, enquanto, do ponto de vista da política social, saber pensar é pilastra crucial da cidadania ativa, para saber melhor intervir. Dito de outro modo, saber pensar é o emblema da cidadania inteligente.

Published: February 2021

Apesar de terem ocorrido nítidas mudanças na educação superior, nos últimos anos, ainda há muito o que ser mudado. Este artigo tem como finalidade propor uma reflexão sobre o real papel da universidade na formação de profissionais na área de saúde, mais especificamente na odontologia. A função da universidade seria o de identificar corretamente os problemas de saúde de cada município ou região e dizer como pode resolvê-los, ou seja, o ensino e a pesquisa devem ser direcionados para ações de impactos sociais que possibilitem melhores condições de vida para a população. As propostas de mudanças devem deixar de existir somente na teoria e serem postas em prática, em que dirigentes, docentes e discentes estejam cientes de seus papéis dentro desse contexto.

Published: February 2021

Em todos os setores da educação há necessidade de avaliações. Os acadêmicos são constantemente avaliados e aferidos pelo corpo docente; porém, os professores nem sempre são submetidos ao mesmo processo. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar fatores importantes do processo de avaliação no ensino superior. Os saberes pedagógicos, em si, não modificam a ação de educar, não geram novas práticas. As avaliações devem basear-se nas competências, habilidades e nos conteúdos curriculares desenvolvidos, tendo como referência as diretrizes curriculares, e sempre considerar: Para quê? O quê? Como? Quem? Cabe destacar a importância sistemática de um instrumento de avaliação, assim como a relevância da coleta de opinião dos acadêmicos, uma vez que estes são os sujeitos ativos do processo ensino-aprendizagem.
Flow chart for the prescription of imaging examinations by dental students
Authors: De Carvalho Pedro Luiz , Ferreira de Medeiros João Marcelo , Camargo Antoniazzi Mônica Cristina , Pires Clemente Rosana Giovanni
Published: February 2021

O propósito deste trabalho foi apresentar um fluxograma que orientasse alunos de graduação do curso de Odontologia a prescrever exames imaginológicos, em situações específicas, iniciando-se pelos exames mais simples e encerrando-se com os mais sofisticados. O referido fluxograma é constituído pelos seguintes exames imaginológicos: periapical, interproximal, oclusal, métodos de localização, panorâmico, extrabucais, tomográfico convencional, e os exames sofisticados, que compreendem a tomografia computadorizada, a ressonância magnética nuclear, a ultra-sonografia e os exames de medicina nuclear. Para testar a validade do fluxograma, utilizamos 21 alunos do segundo ano, durante uma das avaliações bimestrais no ano de 2005, do Departamento de Odontologia da Universidade de Taubaté. Constatouse que o exame periapical foi o mais sugerido, 239 vezes, e o segundo mais indicado foi a radiografia panorâmica, 120 vezes. O efeito dos exames no diagnóstico da condição clínica foi: 325 exames (59,52%) produziram impacto positivo, 146 (26,74%) exames só detectaram a condição clínica, mas não possibilitaram o diagnóstico desta, e 75 (13,74%) não forneceram imagem da condição clínica. Com base na metodologia aplicada e nos resultados obtidos, pôdese concluir que: o fluxograma apresentado auxilia o acadêmico a prescrever exames imaginológicos, em casos específicos na Odontologia; o fluxograma reduziu a possibilidade de erros na prescrição de exames; e o fluxograma resultou em impacto positivo, ou seja, auxiliou no registro das condições clínicas.

Authors: Vieira Diniz Bodi Lucia Helena , Turbino Miriam Lacalle , Vieira Glauco Fioranelli
Published: February 2021

Um estudante de odontologia deve desenvolver uma percepção estética e ser capaz de analisar a forma e função dos dentes para que possa corrigir e restabelecer a fisiologia completa e beleza do sistema estomatognático em seus pacientes. A disciplina de escultura dental visa a desenvolver e treinar a habilidade manual do aluno, preparando-o para as outras disciplinas em que essa habilidade é necessária. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a eficácia do método geométrico de ensino de escultura dental entre iniciantes com diferentes graus iniciais de habilidade manual. O método geométrico, como uma ferramenta auxiliar no ensino da escultura dental, permitiu que se obtivessem melhores resultados, ajudando os alunos a aprender a técnica bem como a reproduzir a anatomia dental. Os resultados mostraram que, embora o método tenha sido eficaz com todos os alunos, aqueles que apresentaram uma maior facilidade no início do curso puderam aproveitar melhor o método. Observou-se uma melhora no treinamento manual, na percepção dos detalhes da anatomia dental e na percepção da proporção entre os diferentes elementos dentais.

Published: February 2021

Buscando possíveis causas para a falta de qualidade das radiografias realizadas no curso, foram entregues questionários abertos a todos os professores de Odontologia da ULBRA, campus Torres/RS, com 5 questões envolvendo seus conhecimentos sobre processamento radiográfico. Participaram da pesquisa os 16 professores que devolveram o questionário respondido. Utilizou-se para a análise dos dados a Análise de Conteúdo de Bardim, situada no Grupo dos Métodos Lógicos-Semânticos. A organização da análise de dados coletados ocorreu em três momentos: a préanálise, a exploração do material e os tratamentos dos resultados. A grande maioria dos professores que aprendeu a utilizar o método visual na sua graduação (13) continua processando as radiografias da mesma maneira até hoje. Os resultados da pesquisa mostram que não existe uma padronização em relação ao método de processamento utilizado em todas as disciplinas do curso. Além disso, etapas do processamento como o tempo de permanência no fixador, banho final, secagem e armazenagem não foram citadas pela maioria dos professores nos questionários. É necessária a conscientização da importância de ocorrerem mudanças, inicialmente por parte dos professores das diferentes áreas clínicas da Odontologia, para que os alunos possam continuar processando as radiografias, como corretamente ensinado na disciplina de radiologia durante todo o seu curso de graduação e vida profissional, não desprezando nenhuma etapa do processo.

CD48 (SLAMF2) is differentially expressed in the lymph nodes of patients with metastatic breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: February 2021

Metastasis to the brain is a clinical problem in patients with breast cancer (1-3). Between the breast and the brain reside the secondary lymphoid organ, the lymph nodes. We mined published microarray data (4, 5) to compare primary and metastatic tumor transcriptomes for the discovery of genes associated with metastasis to the lymph nodes in humans with metastatic breast cancer. We found that cluster of differentiation 48, CD48, also known as SLAMF2, was among the genes whose expression was most different in the lymph node metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer as compared to primary tumors of the breast. CD48 mRNA was present at increased quantities in lymph node metastases as compared to primary tumors of the breast. Importantly, expression of CD48 in primary tumors of the breast was correlated with patient overall survival, in lymph node positive patients but not in lymph node negative patients. Modulation of CD48 expression may be relevant to the biology by which tumor cells metastasize from the breast to the lymph nodes and the brain in humans with metastatic breast cancer.

The Perceptual Crossing Experiment (PCE) captures social capacity using real-time social interaction dynamics but has not been externally validated. We tested ecological and convergent validity of the PCE, in a sample of 208 adolescents from the general population, aged 11 to 19. We expected associations between PCE social capacity and 1) quantity and quality of social interaction in daily life, using Experience Sampling Methodology (ESM) (ecological validity), and 2) self-reported social skills using a questionnaire (convergent validity). We also expected PCE social capacity to better explain variance in ESM social measures than self-reported social skills. Multilevel analyses showed that only self-reported social skills were significantly positively associated with social experience of company in daily life. These initial results do not support the ecological and convergent validity of the PCE. However, fueled by novel insights regarding the complexity of capturing social dynamics, we identified promising methodological advances for future validation efforts.
The influence of pupil responses on subjective brightness perception
Authors: Wardhani Intan K. , Boehler C. Nico , Mathot Sebastiaan
Published: February 2021

When the pupil dilates, the amount of light that falls onto the retina increases. However, in daily life, this does not make the world look brighter. Here we asked whether pupil size (resulting from active pupil movement) influences subjective brightness in the absence of indirect cues that, in daily life, support brightness constancy. We measured the subjective brightness of a tester stimulus relative to a referent as a function of pupil size during tester presentation. In Experiment 1, we manipulated pupil size through a secondary working-memory task (larger pupils with higher load and after errors). We found some evidence that the tester was perceived as darker, rather than brighter, when pupils were larger. In Experiment 2, we presented a red or blue display (larger pupils following red displays). We again found that the tester was perceived as darker when pupils were larger. We speculate that the visual system takes pupil size into account when making brightness judgments. Finally, we highlight the challenges associated with manipulating pupil size. In summary, the current study (as well as a recent pharmacological study on the same topic by another team) are intriguing first steps towards understanding the role of pupil size in brightness perception
The Driving Factor for Stability of Voter Turnout in Southeast Asia: The Evidence from Malaysian and Indonesian Elections
Authors: Harahap Husnul Isa
Published: January 2021

The objective of the study was to describe voter participation (turnout) in South East Asia, particlarry in Indonesian and Malaysian elections from 2004–2019, and the factors that cause stable participation. The participation of voters (turnout) in Malaysia’s elections from 2004–2018 is 73.90–84%. The participation of voters in Indonesia’s elections from 2004–2019 is 70.99–84.09%. This means that voter participation in the last three election periods was stable in both countries. This study shows that four factors cause stable participation: political awareness, rationality, political perceptions, and electoral orientation that is candidate-oriented. The theoretical implication of this study was to strengthen Timothy Feddersen and Alvaro Sandroni, and John G. Matsusaka’s theory about voter political participation or voter behaviour on election day. The originality of this study is that there are special characteristics behind stable political participation in Indonesia and Malaysia. Methods of data collection in this study is based on literature study and analytical method uses the descriptive analysis method. This study also uses a political comparison approach to analyse data.
Radiocarbon chronology of the paleolithic modern humans in Eastern Europe, Siberia and East Asia
Authors:   obolev Institute of Geology and Mineralogy of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Kuzmin Yaroslav
Published: January 2021

The article presents an analytical review of the direct radiocarbon dating of fossils of the modern anatomical humans (Homo sapiens sapiens; H. s. s.) found on the Paleolithic sites of Eastern Europe, Siberia and East Asia, with a brief overview of other regions in Eurasia. While one of the most ancient finds in Eurasia, which has a direct radiocarbon date is the Ust’-Ishim in Western Siberia (age — about 45,000 years); in Eastern Europe, the earliest H. s. s. are Kostenki 14 and Kostenki 1 (age — about 37,400–35,500 years). For a number of finds (such as Kostenki 18 and humans fossils from the Sungir site), there are serious problems that need to be solved with the help of new data. This is particularly clear for the Sungir where 21 radiocarbon dates based on different collagen fractions (bulk collagen; ultrafiltered collagen, and hydroxyproline), have been obtained and dates of the samples taken from the same skeleton often do not match with each other. Methodological issues of radiocarbon dating the bones, and the possibility of an independent assessment of the results obtained, are also considered. When preservation of collagen is good, which can be controlled through a number of parameters, dating of bulk collagen fraction seems to be reliable. Claims that only specific amino acids (such as hydroxyproline) give the only accurate radiocarbon dates for bones have not been strictly proven.
The Swiss Magdalenian portable art and supra-regional parallels
Authors: Braun Ingmar
Published: January 2021

There are about fifty Magdalenian sites known in Switzerland. Most of these sites were discovered and excavated at the end of the 19th and in the first half of the 20th century. Consequently, it is not always possible today to establish clear research contexts and dating is often based on typo-chronological statements. The Swiss Magdalenian portable art can be divided into two main groups: engravings and figurative sculptures. Engravings mostly appear on reindeer antlers, bones, and rarely on stone or jet. They are more common than figurative sculptures. The majority of engravings are on everyday objects such as perforated batons and projectile points. They are mainly signs and other ornamental motifs. In addition, there are also figurative subjects such as animals and a animal-human representation. The term “figurative sculptures” refers to partially sculptured objects, such as decorated spear thrower ends and stylized female figurines. With the exception of a musk ox head no other evident animal sculptures have been found in Switzerland. Some of the Magdalenian portable art objects found in Switzerland show supra-regional parallels with finds from other parts of Europe. The aim of this article is to present the most important Swiss finds in a broader European geographical context.
hat the recent restoration of the Lion Man figurine of Hohlenstein-Stadel Cave tells us about its treatment in the Early Upper Palaeolithic

In 1939, excavators uncovered in Hohlenstein-StadelCave nearly 200 mammoth ivory fragments that were refitted as a therianthrope figurine with the head and upper body of a cave lion and the lower body and legs of a human being. It was named the Lion Man. During recent excavations (2008 to 2013) in the StadelCave , a stratigraphic sequence extending from the Middle Palaeolithic to the Aurignacian was discovered. It became clear that the location of the Lion Man during the excavations of 1939 corresponded to the layer Au of the recent 2008–2013 excavations. During the recent work a part of the excavation backdirt from 1939 was also uncovered. Inside this backdirt, 575 fragments of mammoth ivory were found, some belonging to the Lion Man figurine, which was carved from a complete tusk. In 2012–2013 the Lion Man was newly restored and completed to the greatest possible extent. It became apparent that the Lion Man represents a male. Its snout, back, and right side were refitted, and the Lion Man also gained in volume from the added pieces. New insights point towards an intentional deposition of the formerly complete figurine during the Aurignacian.

Published: January 2021

The Sukhaya Mechetka site in the Lower Volga region being widely known due to the unique preservation of cultural remains, their clear geological position and a rich set of tools has long become a kind of icon of the Middle Paleolithic of Eastern Europe. Improtantly the site was excavated over a wide area (about 650 square meters). During the excavation an assemblage of stone items including more than 350 tools, cores and about 10,000 flint and quartzite flakes of various types was collected. The neogene flint and the paleogene quartzite were used as raw materials approximately equally. According to our observations almost all available and suitable for processing stone rocks that were carried to the site as nodules, blocks, fragments and flakes were intensively used. Raw materials were collected in the immediate vicinity of the site. The signals of raw materials shortage and significant depth of its processing were detected. The distribution of the products of flint and quartzite raw materials on the site is irregular. Primary knapping was carried out according to typical Middle Paleolithic technologies. A small series of stone hammers display specific patterns of their use-wear. The cores and the flakes produced with these hammers were found. The complete sequence of preparation and flaking from the pre-cores to the residual forms has been documented. The shortage of high-quality raw material resulted in extremely complete usage of the most cores. Additionally many residual forms have been used for making tools. The cores can be divided into radial, cuboid and Levallois samples.

Background Teenage pregnancies constitute a serious health and social problem worldwide. World estimates in 2008 report about 16 million births to adolescent mothers, most of them occurring in low and middle income countries.

Objective To assess pregnancy co-morbidities and outcome of teenage pregnancy.

Method A cross-sectional study was conducted at obstetrics and gynecological department of Dhulikhel Hospital. Study was conducted for 18 month period from 1-07-2013 to 30-12-2014. All teenage pregnancy cases admitted at the time of study period were enrolled. Purposive sampling technique was used. Data were collected by face to face interview using clinical Performa and through record file of the patient. Collected data were analyzed in SPSS version 21.0.

Result Total of 527 teenage mothers of varying age group (15 to 19 years) were enrolled in the study. Teenagers who had never been to school were 3.0%; 66.2% of them were from low socioeconomic background , and 58.6% were from rural areas. Pregnancy co-morbidities detected were, Urinary tract infection (UTI) 18.4%, threatened preterm 12.9% followed by ante partum hemorrhage 4.7%. However, other major co-morbidities such as hypertensive disorder, gestational diabetes found to be very less such as, hypertension 0.8% and gestational diabetes found in only one woman.

Conclusion Maternal and newborn outcome and co-morbidities among teenage pregnant women found less compare to other studies. Major pregnancy related morbidities such as hypertension, pre-eclampsia and diabetes were found very less. Most common maternal morbidity found was urinary tract infection during pregnancy but statistically not significant. Similarly, newborn mean weight was more than 2.5 kg and neonatal death found very less. However, teenage pregnancy is significantly associated with low economic status, illiteracy status, willingness to marriage by teenagers and ethnicity.
Saphenous Ladder Formed by Almost Completely Duplicated Great Saphenous Vein

Published: January 2021

Knowledge of normal as well as variant great saphenous vein is useful as it is the vein that can get varicosed; the vein that is used in bypass surgeries and the vein that is used for cannulation purpose. We observed almost complete duplication of the great saphenous vein in the left lower limb of an adult male cadaver. Both the great saphenous veins arose from the medial end of the dorsal venous arch and coursed parallel to each other throughout the limb. They united in the femoral triangle to form a short (1 inch long) common great saphenous vein. Common great saphenous vein terminated into the femoral vein. There were four communicating veins connecting the two great saphenous veins in the leg, giving the appearance of a venous ladder. Knowledge of this variation could be extremely useful in treatment of varicose veins of lower limb, in catheterizations and in various surgical procedures of the lower limb.

A number of government attempts to stimulate cooperation processes in Russian agriculture unfortunately did not result in expected results. The major reason is the outdated view on cooperation. In Russian legislation and policy measures the only one cooperative model is recognized and accepted, namely a traditional cooperative. This model is prescribed in Federal Law No. 193 “On agricultural cooperation”. However, in some aspects traditional cooperative model does not meet requirements of the modern business and social environment. This article discusses and analyses alternative cooperative models, which can be more competitive in modern business environment than a traditional cooperative model.

Published: January 2021

Agricultural production is considered as a social ecological and economic system (SEES). The purpose of the research is to study the social subsystem of SEES from the point of view of its formation. The social structures of the village (which are the individual with his physical, social and spiritual needs, the family and the village as components of a whole) form the way of life of the peasants. The social subsystem has a significant reverse effect, “pressure” on the ecosystem and the state. The degree of development of the individual in rural areas is characterized by the level of development of its needs, motivational complex, potential, including labor, and its orientation. The labor potential of an employee is formed by the characteristics of a person that determine their capabilities in the course of work, and depends on their education, natural data, life experience, and upbringing. Labor potential includes the following components: health, morality, creativity, activity, organization, education, professionalism, working time resources. Human labor can be regulated and innovative (creative). As a rule, the cost of regulated labor increases the cost, but does not create surplus value. It is formed by innovative work as a result of the manifestation of creative abilities of a person.
