« J’accuse »… en 1984 : Le limogeage expéditif d’un général ouest-allemand a rappelé l’affaire Dreyfus et le scandale Fritsch en 1938
Authors: Storkmann Klaus 
Published: December 2015

Adjoint du commandant suprême des forces alliées en Europe (DSACEUR), le général Günter Kießling (1925-2009) était le plus haut représentant de l’armée allemande auprès de l’OTAN. Au cours de l’été 1983, des rumeurs diffamantes, provenant de milieux allemands de l’OTAN, gagnèrent les couloirs du ministère ouest-allemand de la Défense. Elles insinuaient que le général avait des « tendances homosexuelles » et que son chef, le général américain Bernard W. Rogers, le récusait pour cette raison. En 1983, en plein milieu de la controverse sur le stationnement de missiles américains de moyenne portée sur le sol ouest-allemand, le limogeage expéditif du général fit l’effet d’un pavé jeté dans la mare, engendrant une véritable crise politico-militaire, comparable et comparée à l’affaire Dreyfus en France et à l’affaire Fritsch en 1938 en Allemagne.

Published: December 2015

El estudio del movimiento social del 15M y luego su canalización en un partido como Podemos, resulta de especial interés en diferentes campos como la sociología, la política y también el periodismo. En la misma línea, resulta de interés para su estudio la definitiva eclosión en el panorama político-mediático de Ciudadanos o la consolidación de una fuerza política local como Compromís en la Comunidad Valenciana. En este sentido, se han estudiado las coberturas informativas-opinativas que sobre estas formaciones políticas y el resto de formaciones tradicionales se realizaron en la Comunidad Valenciana durante la campaña electoral de las Elecciones Autonómicas de 2015 y que supusieron un cambio de Gobierno tras veinte años en el poder del Partido Popular. El presente trabajo se enmarca en el seno de la investigación del proyecto nacional de I+D Mediaflows (Ministerio Economía y Competitividad) que se centra en la influencia: quién influye sobre quién, de qué forma y con qué efectos. Nos centramos en los flujos por los que circula la información porque nos permite ver ese proceso de traslación de mensajes y combinación de agendas que intentan influir, todas ellas, sobre el espacio público. Buscamos ver cuáles son más influyentes y en qué dirección, o direcciones, se produce el flujo de transmisión de la información. En cuanto, a la metodología, se trabaja la vertiente cuantitativa utilizando la teoría del framing, para el análisis de discursos y contextos, y la cualitativa, utilizando fundamentalmente las herramientas de ‘focus gropu’ y las entrevistas en profundidad. El objetivo principal ha sido analizar el liderazgo territorial de los partidos en la prensa local-tradicional de esta Comunidad: caso de la provincia de Castellón, el diario Mediterráneo, del grupo Zeta; en Alicante, el diario Información, del grupo Prensa Ibérica, y en la provincia de Valencia, el diario Las Provincias, del grupo Vocento. La investigación sirve para comparar la presencia y análisis del discurso de los líderes autonómicos en esos mismos periódicos locales. Unos son líderes de partidos ya consolidados y con años de trabajo en el Gobierno o la oposición, otros recién llegados, pero respaldados por marcas políticas pujantes que tienen detrás a líderes mediáticos como Pablo Iglesias o Albert Rivera.

Improving Bridging from Informatics Theory to Practice
Authors: Haux R. , Koch S. 
Published: December 2015

SummaryBackground: In 1962, Methods of Information in Medicine (MIM) began to publish papers on the methodology and scientific fundamentals of managing data, information, and knowledge in biomedicine and health care. Meeting an increasing demand for research about practical implementation of health information systems, the journal Applied Clinical Informatics (ACI) was launched in 2009. Both journals are official journals of the International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA).Objectives: Based on prior analyses, we aimed to describe major topics published in MIM during 2014 and to explore whether theory of MIM influenced practice of ACI. Our objectives were further to describe lessons learned and to discuss possible editorial policies to improve bridging from theory to practice.Methods: We conducted a retrospective, observational study reviewing MIM articles published during 2014 (N=61) and analyzing reference lists of ACI articles from 2014 (N=70). Lessons learned and opinions about MIM editorial policies were developed in consensus by the two authors. These have been influenced by discussions with the journal’s associate editors and editorial board members.Results: The publication topics of MIM in 2014 were broad, covering biomedical and health informatics, medical biometry and epidemiology. Important topics discussed were biosignal interpretation, boosting methodologies, citation analysis, health-enabling and ambient assistive technologies, health record banking, safety, and standards. Nine ACI practice articles from 2014 cited eighteen MIM theory papers from any year. These nine ACI articles covered mainly the areas of clinical documentation and medication-related decision support. The methodological basis they cited from was almost exclusively related to evaluation. We could show some direct links where theory impacted practice. These links are however few in relation to the total amount of papers published.Conclusions: Editorial policies such as publishing systematic methodological reviews and clarification of possible practical impact of theory-focused articles may improve bridging.
Effect of divergent selection for uterine capacity on embryonic survival and development at 30 h post-mating in unilaterally ovariectomized rabbit females
Authors: Peiro R. , Gallego M. , Blasco A. , Santacreu M.A. 
Published: December 2015

<p>Uterine capacity has been proposed as an indirect way to increase litter size. The aim of this work is to study the effect of a divergent selection for uterine capacity (UC) on reproductive traits at 30 h post mating in unilaterally ovariectomized (ULO) females. A total of 62 ULO females from the high line (selected to increase UC) and 39 ULO females from the low line (selected to decrease UC) were used. Ovulation rate was estimated as the number of corpora haemorrhagica and early embryonic survival was estimated as the ratio between number of embryos and ovulation rate. No differences in ovulation rate and early embryonic survival at 30 h post mating were found between high and low lines. Selection for UC did not change the embryonic stage of development either, the majority of embryos being at 4-cell stage. Additionally, the embryos were evaluated according to morphological criteria and more than 95% of the embryos were evaluated as good or fair quality. No differences in embryonic morphological criteria between high and low lines were found either. Thus, selection for UC did not modify the early embryonic survival and development in ULO females at 30 h post mating.</p>

Published: December 2015

An experiment was carried out to estimate the genetic group effects and the crossbreeding genetic parameters of growth traits [body weight (BW), average daily gain (ADG), feed intake (FI) and feed conversion ratio (FCR)] in rabbits during fattening between 28 and 63 d. The rabbits were the progeny of does coming from a full diallel cross between 4 maternal lines (A, V, H and LP) mated to bucks of the paternal line R. On thousand fifty five rabbits were controlled and the traits were recorded weekly, with the cage as the experimental unit for FI and FCR (283 cages). The genetic group (V line) was present in all farms in order to connect records among them and to be used as reference group. Crossbreeding parameters were estimated according to the Dickerson model. Regarding dam effects between pure lines for BW at weaning, A line was the heaviest and showed significant differences with LP and V lines (61 and 30 g, respectively). Upon completion of the fattening period, the differences in favour of A line for BW at weaning were compensated. Throughout the fattening period, no significant differences were observed between the lines as dam lines. At the end of the fattening period, no significant differences were observed between the crossbred groups. Regarding the reciprocal effects, the most relevant results were the significances for FCR in favour of H as sire line. For all traits, the confidence intervals at 95% of all contrast and effects were large. The estimates of maternal heterosis were, in general, negative, which could be a consequence of the positive heterosis for litter size. The AH cross showed significant maternal heterosis for BW at 43 d (–53 g), ADG between 28 and 42 d (–3.5 g/d), FI between 28 and 63 d (–7 g/d) and FCR between 42 and 63 d (–0.15). The combination of direct and maternal effects of the V line was the worst for all growth traits, showing significant differences with the LP line for most of them, for instance 0.13 worse FCR between 28 and 63 d. Grand-maternal effects were less important than direct-maternal.
Varying Perception of Smile Esthetics-A Deviation from the Norm: A Pictorial Questionnaire-based Survey
Authors: Gupta Pankaj , Gada Sneha Ketan 
Published: December 2015

ABSTRACT

Introduction
Living in a beauty conscious society, the mouth, a focal point of the face, plays a major role in how we perceive ourselves and in the impression we make on the people around us.
Esthetic perception varies from person to person, being influenced by each person's personal experience and social environment. In the process of providing esthetic treatment for a patient, one should not only rely on one's eyes and personal perception of beauty, but also be guided by the patient's desires. Hence, the measurement of the perception of beauty in dentistry is fundamental for providing scientific data that can guide diagnosis and treatment planning.

Aim
This study aims at evaluating the changing trends of esthetic dentistry with the perception of people.

Materials and methods
The study using a visual pictorial questionnaire was conducted among 100 students of Nair Hospital Dental College, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India in February 2013, consequently repeated in October 2013. The scores were averaged and calculated to record the probability prevalence of the same.

Results
A marked shift from the conventional principles of smiles design has been witnessed showing a changing perception of people contrasting to the esthetic norms.

Conclusion
An equal importance needs to be given to the patient's desire combined with the dentist's knowledge and experience of esthetics to deliver efficient and appreciable esthetic outcomes.

Authors: Shah Rupal J , Lagdive Sanjay B , Talkal Arun Kumar , Agrawal Hemal , Darji Bhavyata 
Published: December 2015

ABSTRACT

Aims and objectives
The objective of the study was to investigate the attitude and assess to the knowledge of complete denture wearers and dentists toward denture adhesive and to initiate awareness for the same.

Materials and methods
A questionnaire was mailed to 850 dentists out of which 456 dentists replied. Three hundred and sixty-two complete denture wearers were surveyed with a different questionnaire in the department and were assessed for awareness and usage of denture adhesive.

Results
The results of this survey indicated that 66.89% of dentists used denture adhesives in their practice. Complete denture wearers lack awareness regarding use of denture adhesives as 74.5% of them had never tried denture adhesives. Majority of dentists are also unfamiliar with their beneficial effects.

Conclusion
It should be emphasized that denture adhesives can be considered as a beneficial adjunct to improve fit, comfort, and function of dentures, and psychological security of patients when indicated in schools of dentistry. The knowledge of the patients will always depend on the knowledge of the dentists and how well the dentists educate their patients.

Key message
The outcome of this survey demonstrates that the rate of knowledge of dental practitioners and patients toward denture adhesives has not been in a good situation.

Published: December 2015

ABSTRACTAimTo evaluate the remaining dentin thickness of teeth after cleaning and shaping the root canal using three rotary instrumentation technique using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).Materials and methodsThisin vitrostudy is being done with 30 premolar samples with 20’ curvature. The study is divided into three groups a CBCT was taken to measure the shortest distance from the root canal outline to the closest adjacent root surface was measured at each level from the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) (1,3, 5 and 7 mm) before and after root canal instrumentation. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of different instruments used to prepare curved root canals on the remaining cervical dentin thickness and total amount of dentin removed from root canals during instrumentation by using multi-slice CBCT. The remaining dentin thickness is very much necessary for the success rate of root canal treatment. However, this study helps to prove that a conservative preparation with a sound remaining dentin thickness is much more advisable.ResultIt was observed that there was a significant difference at 1 and 3 mm (p < 0.05) and at 5 and 7 mm there was no significant difference (p > 0.05). Mtwo has removed less amount dentin when compared to ProTaper Universal and ProTaper Next system at 1 and 3 mm.ConclusionUnder the conditions of the study, we concluded that ProTaper Universal and ProTaper Next should be used judiciously, as it causes higher thinning of root dentin of the root when compared with Mtwo.How to cite this articleRamanathan S, Solete P.

Published: December 2015

ABSTRACT
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different types and concentrations of chemical catalysts on the efficiency of 35% hydrogen peroxide gel on dental bleaching. Enameldentin disks were obtained from bovine incisors and the initial color was assessed. The groups were divided according to the type and concentration of catalyst added to an experimental gel: ferrous sulphate (FS) (0.001, 0.002 and 0.003%); ferrous gluconate (FG) (0.01, 0.02 and 0.03%); ferric chloride (FC) (0.01, 0.02 and 0.03%); manganese gluconate (MG) (0.01, 0.02 and 0.03%); and manganese chloride (MC) (0.01, 0.02 and 0.03%). The positive control (PC) group received the bleaching gel without any catalyst, while in the negative control (NC) the specimens remained in artificial saliva. Three applications of the bleaching gels were performed for 10 minutes each, repeated after 7 days. Color assessments were performed 7 days after the first session and 7 days after the second. The specimens were stored in artificial saliva and assessed again after 1 year. The data were analyzed by parametric analysis of variance and Tukey's test. Some of the chemical catalysts tested were effective in reducing the yellowish color of the samples in relation to the positive control group after 1 and 2 applications and diminished the color relapse over time. After 1 year, the FS was the most effective catalyst tested. We concluded that some chemical catalysts increased the efficiency of dental bleaching.

Evaluation of Root Canal Cleaning and Shaping Efficacy of Three Engine-driven Instruments: SafeSider, ProTaper Universal and Lightspeed LSX
Authors: Wigler Ronald , Koren Tal , Tsesis Igor 
Published: December 2015

ABSTRACT

Aim
To compare the cleaning effectiveness and shaping ability of SafeSider, ProTaper Universal and Lightspeed rotary instruments during the preparation of curved root canals in extracted human teeth.

Materials and methods
A total of 63 roots with curved root canals were divided into three groups. Canals were prepared using SafeSider, ProTaper Universal or Lightspeed LSX. Using pre- and post-instrumentation radiographs, straightening of the canal curvatures and loss of working length were determined with a computer image analysis program.
The amounts of debris at the apical 5 mm were quantified on the basis of a numerical evaluation scale. The data were analyzed statistically using the two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).

Results
There was significantly more transportation among the Lightspeed LSX group compared to the SafeSider and ProTaper Universal groups only at the 4 mm level (p < 0.05). The ProTaper Universal instruments performed significantly faster than other groups. No significant differences were observed between the three engine-driven instruments with regards to debris removal.

Conclusion
SafeSider, ProTaper Universal and Lightspeed LSX rotary instruments maintained the original canal curvature well at the apical 3 mm and were safe to use. No difference was found in cleaning efficacy and none rendered the apical part of the canal free of debris.

Clinical significance
SafeSider, ProTaper Universal and Lightspeed LSX rotary instruments are safe to use in curved root canals.

Prevalence of Herpesvirus and Correlation with Clinical Parameters in Indian Subjects with Chronic Periodontitis
Authors: Joshi Vinayak Mahableshwar , Bhat Kishore Gajanan , Katti Sandeep Suresh , Kugaji Manohar Suresh , Ingalgi Preeti Shivaji 
Published: December 2015

ABSTRACT

Objective
The identification of new uncultured species and viruses supports the possibility of combination of the herpesvirus- bacterial periodontal infection for periodontitis. The paucity of data and studies with larger sample size in Indian subjects provides an unclear picture of the presence of the herpesvirus in this population.

Materials and methods
This was a cross-sectional study consisting of 100 each in the healthy group and chronic periodontitis (CP) group. The subgingival plaque was collected and polymerase chain reaction was performed post deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) extraction by using specific primers for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The data were analyzed using Fisher's exact test, Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman's coefficient correlation.

Results
Human cytomegalovirus and EBV viruses were significantly higher in the CP group as compare to the healthy group. A higher percentage of those with CMV positive had EBV also positive (28.3%) compared to only 9.1% of CMV negative being EBV positive in the CP group. When both the healthy and CP group in total was compared, there was a significant correlation with all clinical parameters.

Conclusion
Both the viruses dominated in disease as compared to health were similar to the earlier findings. The CP group had higher pocket depth and clinical attachment loss in the virus positive subjects. These findings could suggest that virus serves as a prelude to the disease and the combination of the two viruses could play a role in the pathogenesis.
