Perioperative Transesophageal Echocardiographic Diagnosis of Membranous Interventricular Septal Aneurysm in Two Patients
Authors: Negi Sunder L , Puri Goverdhan Dutt , Singh Rana S 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
Aneurysms of interventricular septum are a rare anomaly usually seen as an incidental finding on echocardiography. Rarely, they can cause right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. They can present in patients having other cardiac lesions. Diagnosis of interventricular septal aneurysm is not straightforward. They can be confused with sinus of valsalva aneurysm or ventricular septal defect on transthoracic echocardiography. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) provides a better alternative to delineate the interventricular septal aneurysm. We describe the TEE diagnosis of membranous interventricular septal aneurysm in two dissimilar patients who presented for cardiac surgery at our cardiac center.

Transesophageal Echocardiographic Evaluation of Crisscross Heart with Atrioventricular Valve Regurgitation for Fontan Procedure
Authors: Saxena Anita , Talwar Sachin , Bhardwaj Vandana , Makhija Neeti 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
Crisscross heart (CCH) is a rare congenital cardiac malformation characterized by crossing of systemic and pulmonary venous blood streams at atrioventricular (A-V) level due to an apparent twisting of the heart about its long axis. In the literature, perioperative evaluation of CCH by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has not been described. Here we report a rare case of CCH, post Glenn procedure with A-V valve regurgitation, evaluated by TEE for valve repair/replacement followed by completion of Fontan surgery.

Accuracy of Periodontal Screening and Recording as a Screening Tool for Assessing Periodontal Status and Estimation of Periodontal Treatment Needs and Its Comparison with Routine Periodontal Examination
Authors: Ambadi Sahla , Pudukulangara Anuroopa 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Aims
Conventional periodontal examination methods used for the determination of periodontal disease and assessment of disease severity, though precise and effective for diagnostic purposes, are time-consuming. The current study is aimed at checking the accuracy of periodontal screening and recording (PSR) as a diagnostic index in assessing periodontal diseases and to compare it with routine periodontal examination.

Materials and methods
Study population consisted of 100 subjects in which both PSR and routine periodontal examination and recording are carried out.

Results
It was observed that lesser time was required to record PSR index (mean: 2.20 minutes) when compared to routine periodontal examination (mean: 15.28 minutes). Also the probing depth and bleeding on probing had similar findings in all subjects examined (100%), whereas a 10 and 7% difference was seen with respect to presence of calculus and/ or defective margins.

Conclusion
It can be concluded that PSR is accurate enough as a diagnostic index and can be used as a time saving screening tool for periodontal examination.

Esthetic Management of Melanin Hyperpigmentation using Diode Laser: A Report of Four Cases
Authors: Reddy Samba Siva , Ayubi Amera , Ramachandra Vinaya K 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
Gingival hyperpigmentation occurs as triangular/linear/diffuse patches of dark brown to black or light brown to yellow color. Pigmentation may be seen at any age irrespective of sex, although it varies among different races and population. Melanin pigmentation is caused by melanin granules in gingival tissue, which are produced in melanosomes of melanocytes. The ever-increasing demand for esthetics has made individuals conscious of any dark patches of pigmentation, especially on the facial aspects of the anterior gingiva. Melanin hyperpigmentation although medically insignificant is an esthetic concern that is aggravated in individuals with excessive gingival display. Among the plethora of treatment modalities used for depigmentation, lasers have yielded promising results. This case series highlights the effectiveness of diode laser in the management of gingival melanin pigmentation.

Papilla Reconstruction: Reclaiming the Lost!
Authors: Sharanappa Mahantesha , Konuganti Kranti , Kumar Apoorva , LNU Rima 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
Increasing esthetic demands of the modern era has converted modern dentistry to pink and white esthetic dentistry. One of the most difficult goals in the regeneration of the soft tissues is the reconstruction of interdental papilla. A number of techniques have been tried, but the results still lack predictability. Nonsurgical techniques include repeated curettage of the interdental papilla, orthodontic and restorative correction, and hyaluronic acid application, while surgical techniques include pedicle and free gingival graft, connective tissue grafts, and subepithelial connective tissue graft. This article presents a report of two cases where a combination of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and pedicle graft was utilized to retain maximum vascularity and minimize scar tissue formation. The atraumatic management of the tissues with a pouch-like design avoids tension and pressure and is critical for the success of the procedure. Adequate fill of the interdental papilla was observed in both the cases and the results were stable up to 6 months.

Published: July 2019

ABSTRACTIntroductionPreemptive analgesia is an evolving concept where therapeutic intervention be made prior to the onset of pain. This study was done to evaluate the effectiveness of diclofenac sodium 100 mg as preemptive analgesic administered 1 hour before removal of impacted third molars using split mouth study model.Materials and methodsA randomized placebo control study was done on 30 patients requiring bilateral impacted tooth removal. Patients were administered 100 mg of diclofenac sodium and placebo 1 hour prior to surgery at different appointments. Patients were assessed for intraoperative pain and postoperative pain with visual analog scale on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd postoperative days.ResultsStatistical difference was found in pain experience during 1st postoperative day (p = 0.0153). Patients after receiving diclofenac sodium 100 mg experienced less pain compared to placebo side. There was no difference found in pain experience between the study and control groups on subsequent postoperative days and overall pain experience.ConclusionBetter management of pain improves quality of life after procedure. Thus, preemptive analgesia may be beneficial in reducing pain intensity. Larger sample blinded studies may prove efficiency of preemptive analgesia.How to cite this articleRangaswamy S, Sheshappa KN, Srikanthan R.

A Comprehensive Review on Dental Calculus
Authors: Aghanashini Suchetha , Puvvalla Bhavana , Mundinamane Darshan B , Apoorva SM , Bhat Divya , Lalwani Manjari 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT
Dental calculus is a hard deposit that is formed by calcification of dental plaque primarily composed of calcium phosphate mineral salts which is deposited on natural teeth and restorations and is covered by a layer of unmineralized plaque. These hard deposits may form coronal to or apical to the gingival margin, hence named accordingly as supragingival and subgingival calculus respectively. The distribution of calculus is very versatile and it differs from individual to individual, from tooth to tooth, and from surface to surface. So, a thorough knowledge on prevalence of calculus is important for the clinician in outlining the treatment plan. It is a well-known fact that calculus is itself not an inducing agent for pathological changes that occur in gingival tissues; instead it is covered by a layer of unmineralized plaque which is proven to be the key etiological agent involved in these pathogenic mechanisms. But, attributing to the porosity of calculus and its ability to retain bacterial antigens makes it an important contributing factor in initiating and accentuating periodontal disease progression. In this review, we made an attempt to discuss various aspects of calculus composition, its formation, and its etiological significance in periodontal disease progression.

Published: July 2019

ABSTRACTIntramuscular hemangiomas (IMHs) occur when the proliferation of blood vessels is found between the skeletal muscle fibers, and they account for less than 1% of all hemangiomas. We report two cases of IMHs in the rare locations like tongue and temporalis muscle. These hemangiomas should be considered in a differential diagnosis of the soft tissue masses. Radiology plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis of these lesions.How to cite this articleKamra S, Pai KM, Chhaparwal Y. Intramuscular Hemangioma: Enigmatic Dilemma in Diagnosis.

A Modified Method for Bone Regeneration using Gelatin Sponge with Bone Graft in treating an Osseous Defect after Root Resection
Authors: Sunil Sathyanarayana , Harsha MB 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACT

Introduction
Modern advances in all phases of dentistry have provided the opportunity for patients to maintain a functional dentition for longer periods of time. The disciplines of endodontics, periodontics, and prosthodontics fuse when the molars that have furcation involvements are treated by hemisection or root resection. Preserving the socket in these cases after removing the root or tooth segment and regenerating bone around the remaining portion of the root is an important part of the treatment that determines the prognosis of the tooth.

Case report
To enhance bone regeneration, a modified approach was used while bone grafting, where gelatin sponge was placed along with the synthetic hydroxyapatite and β-tricalcium phosphate in the osseous defect of the lower right first molar tooth following distal root resection. In this case report, the tooth after root resection has shown profound improvement in periodontal health, and the socket was preserved satisfactorily.

Conclusion
The simple modification showed an uneventful healing and excellent periodontal health clinically and good bone fill contributing to socket preservation as seen radiographically. The tooth has continued to serve well as found in the sixth month follow-up.

Clinical significance
The future prospect of using bone graft along with an agent that holds the clot and stabilizes it (gelatin sponge) during healing could serve as a useful treatment procedure, as this combination might act together producing synergistic effects.

Leisure time and labor productivity: a new economic view rooted from sociological perspective
Authors: Cui Dan , Wei Xiang , Wu Dianting , Cui Nana , Nijkamp Peter 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
Most economists measure labor productivity based on activities conducted at places of work and do not consider leisure time in their calculations. In contrast, psychologists and sociologists argue that leisure has a positive role in the production process: leisure can improve individuals’ labor productivity by affecting their self-development. Using empirical data from 21 OECD countries, this study finds that leisure time has a dual effect on labor productivity in terms of per capita per hour GDP. Moreover, leisure time is nonlinearly associated with labor productivity (inverted U-shaped). When leisure time reaches the optimal level (5,813 hours), leisure has a compensatory effect on work and can positively influence labor productivity, but when leisure time exceeds the optimal value, leisure has a substitution effect on work and can negatively influence labor productivity.

Published: July 2019

Abstract. Baltic Sea bathymetric properties are analysed here using the newly released
digital bathymetric model (DBM) by the European Marine Observation and Data
Network (EMODnet). The analyses include hypsometry, volume, descriptive
depth statistics, and kilometre-scale seafloor ruggedness, i.e. terrain
heterogeneity, for the Baltic Sea as a whole as well as for 17 sub-basins
defined by the Baltic Marine Environment Protection Commission (HELCOM). We
compare the new EMODnet DBM with IOWTOPO the previously most widely used
DBM of the Baltic Se aproduced by the Leibniz-Institut für Ostseeforschung Warnemünde (IOW), which has served as the primary gridded bathymetric
resource in physical and environmental studies for nearly two decades. The
area of deep water exchange between the Bothnian Sea and the Northern Baltic
Proper across the Åland Sea is specifically analysed in terms of depths
and locations of critical bathymetric sills. The EMODnet DBM provides a
bathymetric sill depth of 88 m at the northern side of the Åland Sea and
60 m at the southern side, differing from previously identified sill depths
of 100 and 70 m, respectively. High-resolution multibeam bathymetry acquired
from this deep water exchange path, where vigorous bottom currents
interacted with the seafloor, allows us to assess what presently available
DBMs are missing in terms of physical characterization of the seafloor. Our
study highlights the need for continued work towards complete
high-resolution mapping of the Baltic Sea seafloor.
The Preferences of Dentists’ Attire among a Selected Population of Parents
Authors: Eigbobo Joycelyn O. , Etim Sylvia S. 
Published: July 2019

Aim: To evaluate the preferences of the dentists' attire among parents.
Study Design: Descriptive cross-sectional study.
Methodology: A questionnaire was used to obtain socio-demographic information and their preferences from Parents that accompanied their children to the Paediatric dental clinic. Information was also elicited from photographs showing male and female dentists’ with different attires and protective wears. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 22 and the level of significance was set at <0.05.
Results: One hundred and fifty parents, comprising of 105(70%) females and 45(30%) males were assessed. The 40-49 year age-group were the majority [73(48.7%)], the female dentist was the preferred gender and there were statistically significant differences between the male and female subjects (p=0.047). One hundred and forty-six (97.3%) wanted the dentists to wear name tags mostly for ease of identification 103(68.8%) and communication 20(13.3%). All parents wanted the dentist to don protective coat and gloves, while 123(82%) and 80(53.3%) parents preferred dentists' wearing facemasks and protective glasses, respectively. One hundred and twenty-eight (85.3%) preferred the white coats because it depicts purity/cleanliness (51.4%) and professionalism (45.7%). Dentists attire was important to 82% and there were statistical significant differences (p=0.01) between those with previous dental exposure and first-timers. There were statistically significant differences (p=0.03) between procedures [orthodontics and other procedures] done in the present visit and their perception of dentist attire.
Conclusion: The preferences of the parents on protective wears, use of name tags and gender of the dentist show that identification, safety, empathy and rapport were desired from the dentist by the parents. Previous exposure of their children to the dental setting had an influence on the parents’ preferences.

Aims: This study evaluates the inhibitory potential of the clove essential oil (Syzygium aromaticum L.) on phytopathogenic fungi in vitro and on maize seeds.
Study Design: The experiments comprised completely randomized designs: Seven treatments with five replicates on in vitro test; and four treatments with five replicates each, on in vivo test.
Place and Duration of Study: The work was carried out at the Center for Agrifood Science and Technology of the Federal University of Campina Grande, Pombal, Brazil, from April to May 2018.
Methodology: In the in vitro test, the essential oil was incorporated into the PDA (Potato-Dextrose-Agar) culture medium. The treatments comprised five concentrations of the oil (0.0125, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2%), a negative control (0.0%), and a positive control (Tiram). Plates were inoculated with the tested fungi, Fusarium verticillioides, Macrophomina phaseolina, and Macrophomina pseudophaseolina, then incubated for seven days at 27±2°C. The percentage of mycelial growth inhibition (PGI) and mycelial growth rate index (MGRI) were estimated. In the in vivo test, maize seeds (AG1051 hybrid) were treated with the essential oil on concentrations equal or superior to the minimum inhibitory concentration found in the in vitro test, besides the negative and positive controls. The artificial inoculation was carried out in fungi colonies for 32 hours and the seed sanity test was performed. The percentage of seeds infected by the fungus was evaluated after seven days.
Results: In vitro conditions, clove oil totally inhibited the mycelial growth of F. verticillioides, M. phaseolina and M. pseudophaseolina at concentrations of 0.05, 0.1 and 0.1%, respectively. At 0.2% concentration significantly reduced the incidence of colonies of fungi M. phaseolina and M. pseudophaseolina in hybrid corn seeds AG 1051.
Conclusion: The clove essential oil had a fungitoxic effect on the phytopathogens evaluated, under in vitro and in the treatment of maize seeds.

Published: July 2019

ObjectiveTo determine whether racial disparities in total knee replacement (TKR) failure are explained by poverty.MethodsBlack and white New York state residents, enrolled in a prospective single‐institution TKR registry January 1, 2008 to February 6, 2012, who underwent primary unilateral TKR (n = 4,062) were linked to the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System database (January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2014) to capture revisions performed at outside institutions. Patients were linked by geocoded addresses to residential census tracts. Multivariable Cox regression was used to assess predictors of TKR revision. Multivariable logistic regression was used to analyze predictors of TKR failure, defined as TKR revision in New York state ≤2 years after surgery, or as Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) TKR quality of life score “not improved” or “worsened” 2 years after surgery.ResultsThe mean ± SD age was 68.4 ± 10 years, 64% of patients were female, 8% lived in census tracts with >20% of the population under the poverty line, and 9% were black. Median follow‐up time was 5.3 years. A total of 3% of patients (122 of 4,062) required revision a median 454 days (interquartile range 215–829) after surgery. TKR revision risk was higher in blacks than whites, with a hazard ratio of 1.69 (95% confidence interval 1.01–2.81), but in multivariable analysis, only younger age, male sex, and constrained prosthesis were predictors of TKR revision. TKR failure occurred in 200 of 2,832 cases (7%) with 2‐year surveys. Risk factors for TKR failure were non‐osteoarthritis TKR indication, low surgeon volume, and low HSS Expectations Survey score, but not black race. Community poverty was not associated with TKR revision or failure.ConclusionThere was a trend toward higher TKR revision risk in blacks, but poverty did not modify the relationship between race and TKR revision or failure.
