Oral Surgery In Severe Thrombocytopaenia Patients: A Case-Control Comparison of Platelet Concentrate Versus Platelet Transfusion
Authors: Cocero Nadia , Bergamasco Laura , Mozzati Marco 
Published: July 2017

Aim: Surgical treatment of patients with severe thrombocytopaenia (<50,000 platelets/mL) is a major problem for dentists due to an increased risk of bleeding. To reduce post-extraction haemorrhage, we tested a new approach using a platelet concentrate and compared its outcomes with those of routine platelet transfusion.
Methodology: Sixty-six patients with a platelet count between 29,000 and 46,000/mL were included in the study. Each patient was to undergo at least two sessions for the extraction of teeth; in one session the patients received a platelet transfusion before the extraction and in the other the post-alveolar sockets were treated with Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF). Patients were evaluated after 0.4, 1, 3 and 7 days to assess bleeding and haematoma.
Results: Patients treated with PRGF consistently exhibited a statistically significant reduction in post-extraction bleeding, hematoma and need for re-intervention. There is ample evidence that application of PRGF in the post-alveolar socket markedly reduced the risk of haemorrhage and associated complications in all patients.
Conclusion: PRGF concentrate is recommended for the treatment of thrombocytopaenic patients due to its remarkable ability to stimulate healing while greatly reducing side effects, such as bleeding and haematoma.

The Evolution of External and Internal Implant–Abutment Connections: A Review
Authors: Prithviraj D.R. , Muley Ninad , Gupta Vikas 
Published: July 2017

A study of the implant–abutment connection is of great importance because it is the primary determinant of the strength and stability of an implant-supported restoration, which, in turn, determines the restoration’s prosthetic stability. Traditionally, Brånemark’s external hexagon has been used, but significant complications, such as abutment screw loosening, rotational misfit at the implant–abutment interface, and microbial penetration have led to modification of the external hexagon and the development of internal implant–abutment connections. In this review, we describe various implant–abutment connections that have evolved over time from the traditional external hexagon.

Authors: Kaya Sadullah 
Published: July 2017

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two instrumentation and irrigant techniques in smear-layer removal from root canals.
Methodology: Thirty single-rooted teeth were randomly divided into two groups. Group 1 (continuous irrigation) was prepared using Self-adjusting file, and group 2 (manual irrigation; conventional needle irrigation) was prepared using with ProTaper file system. Groups were irrigated using sodium hypochlorite (5%) as an initial irrigant following MTAD in a closed system. Canals were bisected and examined by scanning electron microscopy. Smear layers were evaluated using a five-point scoring system with 2500x magnification.
Results: Smear layers were eliminated in the coronal, middle, and apical thirds of the root canal, respectively, in 93%, 80%, and 60% of samples in the group 1, and 67%, 60%, and 27% in the group 2, of the coronal, middle, and apical thirds of the root canals, respectively. Evaluation by SEM showed continuous irrigation differed not-significantly from the manual irrigation group in all areas (P >0.05).
Conclusions: Smear layer can be removed properly with suitable irrigation methods.

Authors: Saribas Ebru , Acun Kaya Filiz , Dogru Arzum Guler , Aluclu Mehmet Ufuk 
Published: July 2017

Aim: Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy (HSAN) is a rare syndrome of unknown etiology that develops in early childhood. Five different types of HSAN have been described. This syndrome is characterized by the absence of pain and self-mutilation. Patients start to traumatize themselves at as young as 2–3 years of age. Subsequently, ulcers and stress fractures develop on their fingers and toes. Oral findings in HSAN patients include oral lesions after repetitive trauma, oral mucosa and tongue scars, self-dental extractions, dental infections, and premature tooth loss.
Methodology: This case report presents the oral findings of a 4-year-old HSAN patient with premature tooth loss who visited Dicle University, Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Periodontology. The extraoral examination showed wounds around the nose and bruises and burns on the forearms and legs. The intraoral inspection showed traumatic lesions on the tongue, early loss of all of the lower jaw primary dentition, but the presence of upper jaw teeth.
Results: During follow-up, the eruption of the permanent right lower incisors and presence of mobility were observed. A partial child prosthesis for the lower jaw and protective plaque restoration constructions were planned. The patient is being followed regularly.
Conclusions: It is necessary to conduct regular checkups and to ensure good communication between the dentist and family in terms of ensuring oral hygiene and preventing the development of undesired complications.

Głos w sprawie interpretacji przywództwa w organizacji
Authors: Czerska Małgorzata , Rutka Ryszard 
Published: July 2017

Zamiarem Autorów była próba odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy w organizacjach formalnych
terminy kierowanie i przywództwo można traktować jako synonimy. Przeprowadzono
analizę porównawczą obu pojęć w następujących obszarach: cele, źródła władzy i treści
pełnionych ról na poszczególnych szczeblach hierarchicznych. Prowadzi ona do wniosku,
że kierowanie jest pojęciem szerszym, a przywództwo stanowi jedynie jedną z jego form
(o coraz większym znaczeniu). Nie należy więc nadużywać terminu przywództwo.

Qui a le droit d’écrire l’histoire? Controverses autour de l’histoire de la médecine en France (XXe-XXIe siècle)
Authors: Doria Corinne 
Published: July 2017

Cet article propose une réflexion autour de l’histoire de la médecine en tant que discipline universitaire. Il se focalise notamment sur les débats qui ont lieu en France entre la seconde moitié du XXe siècle et le début du XXIe. Dans un premier temps, il rappelle les principaux courants théoriques de l’histoire médicale jusqu’au tournant épistémologique qui, au milieu du XIXe siècle, oppose les partisans d’une histoire médicale « philologique » aux partisans d’une histoire médicale « héroïque ». La deuxième partie porte sur les débats qui, en France, se développent à compter des années 1950 autour de la légitimité d’une histoire médicale faite par les médecins; cette remise en question fut propulsée par la « révolution des Annales » et le courant d’histoire sociale de la médecine qui s’est formé autour de Jacques Léonard. La troisième partie engage une réflexion sur l’avenir de l’enseignement et de la recherche en histoire de la médecine en France, et souligne la nécessité d’une coopération entre praticiens et spécialistes des sciences humaines et sociales en raison de leurs compétences respectives.
States of Obligation and the Elusive Rural Citizen
Authors: Gaudin Corinne 
Published: July 2017

This essay opens the discussion of Yanni Kotsonis’ States of Obligation by exploring what implications the book’s arguments about taxation and citizenship have for our understanding of fraught state-peasant relations in the late Imperial and Soviet periods. It argues that in addition to the technocratic, philosophical, and bureaucratic continuities that shaped the Russian/Soviet variant of European modernity, one could add a cultural and temporal conception of citizenship that rendered the peasant an ever elusive citizen.
Passive‐ocean radial basis function approach to improve temporal gravity recovery from GRACE observations
Authors: Yang Fan , Kusche Jürgen , Forootan Ehsan , Rietbroek Roelof 
Published: July 2017

AbstractWe present a state‐of‐the‐art approach of passive‐ocean modified radial basis functions (MRBFs) that improves the recovery of time‐variable gravity fields from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE). As is well known, spherical harmonics (SHs), which are commonly used to recover gravity fields, are orthogonal basis functions with global coverage. However, the chosen SH truncation involves a global compromise between data coverage and obtainable resolution, and strong localized signals may not be fully captured. Radial basis functions (RBFs) provide another representation, which has been proposed in earlier works to be better suited to retrieve regional gravity signals. In this paper, we propose a MRBF approach by embedding the known coastal geometries in the RBF parameterization and imposing global mass conservation and equilibrium behavior of the oceans. Our hypothesis is that with this physically justified constraint, the GRACE‐derived gravity signals can be more realistically partitioned into the land and ocean contributions along the coastlines. We test this new technique to invert monthly gravity fields from GRACE level‐1b observations covering 2005–2010, for which the numerical results indicate that (1) MRBF‐based solutions reduce the number of parameters by approximately 10% and allow for more flexible regularization when compared to ordinary RBF solutions and (2) the MRBF‐derived mass flux is better confined along coastal areas. The latter is particularly tested in the southern Greenland, and our results indicate that the trend of mass loss from the MRBF solutions is approximately 11% larger than that from the SH solutions and approximately 4%–6% larger than that of RBF solutions.
Structure, characteristics, and simulation of monsoon low‐pressure systems in CFSv2 coupled model
Authors: Srivastava Ankur , Rao Suryachandra A. , Rao D. Nagarjuna , George Gibies , Pradhan Maheswar 
Published: July 2017

AbstractIndian Summer Monsoon (ISM) synoptic scale systems (low‐pressure systems, LPS) are known to produce increased rainfall over central India (CI). Fidelity of the Climate Forecast System version 2 (CFSv2) at simulating the LPS and their characteristics is evaluated in this study using a feature tracking algorithm. The model is able to reproduce the clustering of LPS by monsoon intraseasonal oscillations and the associated precipitation over eastern‐central India. It is found that mean biases in circulation and moisture stem from cold sea surface temperature (SST) bias in the model which results in weak LPS linked rainfall events over central India. Two sensitivity experiments were carried out to study the effect of coupled dynamics of tropical basins on LPS. Suppression of active dynamics of the tropical Indian Ocean in CFSv2 causes a reduction in cold SST bias and enhanced cyclogenesis in the northern Bay of Bengal. The reduced low‐level anticyclonic bias and enhanced moisture availability result in a better simulation of LPS structure, and associated precipitation over CI. Suppression of active ocean dynamics in tropical Pacific Ocean causes a perennial El‐Niño type bias which restricts LPS propagation over the Indian landmass, possibly due to time‐mean subsidence induced by remote El‐Niño forcing. Sensitivity experiments indicate the need for improvements in the representation of tropical Indian Ocean coupled dynamics as well as convective parameterization schemes in the model for subsequent improvements in the simulation of ISM at various time scales.
The impact of aerosol vertical distribution on aerosol optical depth retrieval using CALIPSO and MODIS data: Case study over dust and smoke regions
Authors: Wu Yerong , de Graaf Martin , Menenti Massimo 
Published: July 2017

AbstractGlobal quantitative aerosol information has been derived from MODerate Resolution Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MODIS) observations for decades since early 2000 and widely used for air quality and climate change research. However, the operational MODIS Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) products Collection 6 (C6) can still be biased, because of uncertainty in assumed aerosol optical properties and aerosol vertical distribution. This study investigates the impact of aerosol vertical distribution on the AOD retrieval. We developed a new algorithm by considering dynamic vertical profiles, which is an adaptation of MODIS C6 Dark Target (C6_DT) algorithm over land. The new algorithm makes use of the aerosol vertical profile extracted from Cloud‐Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) measurements to generate an accurate top of the atmosphere (TOA) reflectance for the AOD retrieval, where the profile is assumed to be a single layer and represented as a Gaussian function with the mean height as single variable. To test the impact, a comparison was made between MODIS DT and Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) AOD, over dust and smoke regions. The results show that the aerosol vertical distribution has a strong impact on the AOD retrieval. The assumed aerosol layers close to the ground can negatively bias the retrievals in C6_DT. Regarding the evaluated smoke and dust layers, the new algorithm can improve the retrieval by reducing the negative biases by 3–5%.

AbstractThe potential energy of gravity waves (GWs) per unit mass (Ep), at altitudes of 15–70 km, has been examined from temperature profiles obtained by a Rayleigh/Raman lidar at Syowa Station (69°S, 40°E) from May 2011 to October 2013, with the exception of the summer months. The GWs with ground‐based wave periods longer than 2 h and vertical wavelengths between 1.8 and 16 km were extracted from the temperature profiles. Ep was larger in winter than in spring and fall, although in 2012, at altitudes below 30 km, Ep was larger in spring than in winter and fall. Ep increased with a mean scale height of 11.3 km. Ep profiles showed a local maximum at an altitude of 20 km and a minimum at 25 km in almost every month, which has not been reported by previous studies observed by radiosondes. The values of Ep in October of 2012 were smaller at 35–60 km and larger at 20–35 km than those in October of 2011 and 2013. This difference in the Ep profile is most probably caused by different seasonal variations of zonal winds. The larger and smaller Ep values seem to be observed both below and above the altitude at which the zonal wind speed reached 0 m s−1. This result suggests that wind filtering of gravity waves with small phase speeds is significantly important in early spring.
