The Role of Telemedicine in Rural Specialty Care: Priorities and Recommendations from Rural Primary Care Physicians
Authors: Faith Hampton  , Jeremy Larson  , Alyssa Hobson  , Dorothy Hughes  
Published: March 2024

Introduction. The study goal was to understand telemedicine’s role in improving access to rural specialty care. Other outcomes included assessing specialty availability and frequency of referrals at rural sites.
Methods. This mixed methods study included surveys and semi-structured interviews of rural primary care physicians (PCPs). Survey data were analyzed with summary statistics and cross-tabulations. Interview transcripts were inductively thematically analyzed.
Results. Of the 19 PCPs who completed the survey, 37% agreed/strongly agreed current telemedicine practices connected patients to better specialty care; 90% agreed/strongly agreed it had such potential. Interviews revealed telemedicine could improve care when local specialists were unavailable and provided the most benefit in acute care settings or specialist follow-ups. Most survey respondents reported outreach specialists were highly effective in addressing rural specialty care needs. Respondents reported cardiology, general surgery, orthopedic surgery, ENT/otolaryngology, and dermatology as the most frequently referred-to specialties. In-person neurology, gastroenterology, and dermatology were unavailable in many communities. Respondents identified psychiatry as a high priority for telemedicine and discussed clinic-to-clinic visits to optimize telemedicine use.
Conclusions. The perceived discrepancy between the current and potential roles of telemedicine in rural specialty care suggests that telemedicine may not fully align with the needs of rural patients and could be optimized for rural practice settings. While local, in-person access to specialists remains a priority, telemedicine can reduce patient burdens and improve care when in-person specialists are unavailable.

: To measure stress and strain concentrations on four different RBFDP designs and its effect on cement layer and the Periodontal tissues using FEA.: Using CBCT data, two 3D models of a maxilla with missing lateral Incisor were printed. Tooth preparation for RBFDP was done. One model had proximal-groove of 4mm and other had 3mm proximal-groove. Four designs of cantilever RBFDPs were designed. Model-1: #21 abutment/ 3x3mm connector; Model-2: #21 abutment/ 3x4mm connector; Model-3: #23 abutment/ 3x3mm connector and; Model-4: #23 abutment/ 3x4mm connector. All Models were converted into FEA models, occlusal force of 200N was loaded at 450 to long axis of pontic and FEA was carried out. Maximum Principal Strain(MPS) in the RBFDP framework, periodontal tissues and Maximum Shear Stress(MSS) in cement layer were measured to evaluate the impact on periodontal tissues and the risk for framework-debonding respectively.: The MPS of framework in decreasing order was: Model-1&#62;Model-2&#62;Model-3&#62;Model-4. The MPS of PDL: Model-1 and Model-2 &#62; Model-3 and Model-4. MSS in cement layer: Model-1 and Model-2 &#62; Model-3 and Model-4. Adhesion area with shear stress &#62;11MPa: Model-1 and Model-2 &#62; Model-3 and Model-4. MPS and MMS values were lower in models with 3×4mm connector than models with 3x3mm connector.: Adequate Connector dimension and adhesion-area are critical for success of RBFDP. Within the limitations of this study, RBFDP design with 3x4mm connector and Maxillary Canine as abutment for replacing Maxillary Lateral Incisor is better option in terms of framework-debonding risk and preservation of periodontal tissues.

Authors: Sil Shiladitya , Ghosh Subhankar , Saha Nilanjana 
Published: March 2024

: Calcium hydroxide with or without iodoform is commonly used for apexification in immature permanent teeth. Before permanent restoration, temporary restorative material is used for ensuring coronal seal at the tooth orifice. An ideal coronal sealing agent prevents micro-leakage and maintains aseptic root canal environment. : This study aims at assessing the role of coronal seal on the long term success of apexification in immature permanent teeth by calcium hydroxide.: 51 children between the age group of 8-10 years having open apex in permanent upper anterior(s) secondary to trauma were divided into three groups, each receiving calcium hydroxide based material for apexification. Children were evaluated clinically and radiographically and followed up for a period of nine months. Cavit was used as temporary restoration in all three groups. Cases with loss of coronal seal, failure in apexification and clinical flare ups were identified. The data were statistically analyzed by Z-test and Chi-square test.: Presence of good coronal seal was directly related with successful and uneventful apexification. Loss of coronal seal was mostly related with increased evidence of clinical flare up and failure in or delayed apexification. Both the results were found to be statistically significant.: Temporary restorative materials providing meticulous coronal seal is as important as the permanent restoration, for the long term success of apexification.

An essential quality of acrylic resin denture bases is colour stability. Over time, acrylic resin bases have a tendency to attract stains, which causes the denture base's colour to alter. These modifications sometimes make the denture less aesthetically pleasing for the wearer, which leads to patient unhappiness and higher replacement costs. The study's objective was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of cleaning dentures using chemical, mechanical, and chemico-mechanical methods for removing stains from the heat polymerized acrylic resin denture base.A total of 120 samples of heat polymerised acrylic resin were fabricated and stained using sambhar solution for 10 days under controlled conditions. The baseline optical density of the samples was determined. The samples were then subjected to stain removal procedure by either - chemical, mechanical or chemico-mechanical method. After which the optical density was again determined. The efficiency of the three methods used was determined by the difference in the optical density after staining and post cleaning and compared with the baseline optical density measured previously. The data was analysed using One-way ANOVA test. Post hoc comparison was made by Bonferroni t-test. p&#60;0.0.5 was considered as statistically significant. Data analysis was done using the statistical software STATA version 13.0.The results suggested that the chemico-mechanical method was the best method for stain removal from the acrylic samples. However, the mechanical method of denture cleaning was found to be equally effective. The chemical method was least effective in removing stains from the surface of heat polymerised acrylic resin. The chemico-mechanical method was 95.16% effective and the mechanical method used was 92.12% effective, proving that the chemico-mechanical was the most effective method for removing stains from the acrylic resin amongst the 3 techniques compared.

Authors: Makhracheva Ya. N. , Zheltova N. Yu. 
Published: March 2024

INTRODUCTION. The purpose of the study is to analyze the features of the poetics of the short stories by B.A. Lazarevsky from the collection “Doomed and Other Stories” (Berlin, 1921), which were created and published by the writer in emigration, using the example of the introduction technique. It should be noted that the collection was not previously subjected to literary analysis, and the artist's name was unfairly forgotten in his homeland after the revolution due to ideological and other reasons.MATERIALS AND METHODS. The specifics of using the Lazarevsky preface technique in the stories of the collection “Doomed and Other Stories” are considered. Historicalliterary, structural-poetic methods are used for the analysis.RESULTS AND DISCUSSION. It is revealed that the technique of anticipation is embodied by the writer in the prophetic dreams of the characters, as well as in their ability to predict future events. Dreams characterize the emotional state of the characters and serve as a way to escape from the harsh reality. Most of the characters have developed intuition and emotional sensitivity. It is determined that the writer actively used the preface in other works of the initial period of emigration (“The Soul of a Woman”, “Captain's Widow”).CONCLUSION. The clarification of the features of the poetics of emigrant works through the analysis of the reception of the preface is the theoretical significance of the study. The practical significance lies in the possibility of using the materials obtained in the practice of university and school teaching literature of the Russian abroad.
