ABSTRACT
Extensive resections of the maxillary bone often result in significant defects that affect oral functions such as speech and chewing. Although dentomaxillary prostheses are common, they frequently lead to instability and reduced chewing ability. Vascularised bone grafts, including the fibula, are increasingly used to address these challenges due to their anatomical suitability and functional restoration benefits. Despite advances, problems remain, including insufficient bone height for stable implantation. A 60-year-old Japanese woman presented with swelling of the right maxilla and nasal obstruction and was diagnosed with osteosarcoma. Following chemotherapy and partial maxillary resection, she experienced discomfort with dentomaxillary prosthetics, prompting subsequent reconstruction with fibula and particulate cancellous bone and marrow (PCBM) grafts. This patient was taking methotrexate regularly for rheumatoid arthritis, so there was concern that she would be immunosuppressed. Therefore, we did not choose a zygomatic implant, which would be difficult to control in the event of infection. In addition, the fibula alone was insufficient for reconstruction; sufficient vertical and horizontal bone augmentation was required, and we chose a combination of titanium mesh and PCBM that met these requirements. Sequential implant procedures culminated in fixed superstructures that significantly improved occlusal function and prosthetic stability over a 6-year follow-up period. This case highlights the challenges of prosthetic instability following maxillary resections and demonstrates the effectiveness of multi-stage reconstructions using fibula grafts and PCBM for alveolar ridge augmentation. The structured approach to maxillofacial reconstruction provides valuable insights into optimizing functional outcomes following surgical procedures and highlights the importance of tailored treatment strategies in complex maxillofacial cases.
Management of dental implant components following abutment screw loosening: A case report
Authors: Wadhwani Chandur , Yin Shi , Froum Scott , Fong Hanson , Chung Kwok-Hung 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Management of implant abutment screw loosening should go beyond simply retightening the abutment screw. This case report highlights the need to check all components for damage before disinfection and re-tightening if possible. Major concerns include the implant-abutment connection site, screw, and debridement of the internal implant surfaces. Scanning electron microscopy and optical microscopic exam of the debris removed after cleaning demonstrated the presence of titanium metal particles and biological material. Protocols should be developed to address these issues before reattaching the implant restoration.
Two Conventional Implants versus Four Mini-Dental Implants to Retain Mandibular Overdentures: A Systematic Review of Clinical and Radiological Outcomes
Authors: A. Araby Yasser , Hameed Shaul K. 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Background and objective: It is essential to compare conventional dental implants (CDIs) and Mini-Dental Implants (MDIs). This systematic review evaluates the clinical and radiological outcomes of individuals receiving MDI-retained overdentures (ODs) compared to CDI-retained ODs.
Materials and methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed for the current systematic review. The PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane databases were examined for evidence-based research articles addressing the clinical and radiological outcomes of MDI and CDI published from January 2013 to September 2024. Two independent specialists conducted an autonomous search and established predefined screening criteria. The risk of bias (RoB) for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was evaluated using the criteria established by the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions for scientific merit.
Results: The informational database and manual searches produced 242 papers. Eight RCTs were examined after eliminating duplicates and organizing the publications according to the qualifying criteria. MDI-retained ODs have been shown to provide numerous benefits, including reduced bone resorption, enhanced aesthetics, occlusion, and tooth location, improved occlusal load direction, and maintenance of occlusal vertical dimension.
Conclusion: The current systematic review suggests that using mini-dental implants to retain overdenture prostheses could be a viable alternative treatment option due to the high survival rates, acceptable marginal bone loss, and improvements in patient satisfaction and oral health-related quality of life metrics.
Welsh Not: Elementary Education and the Anglicisation of Nineteenth-Century Wales
Authors: Johnes Martin 
Published: February 2025

The Welsh Not was a wooden token given to children caught speaking Welsh in nineteenth-century schools. It was often accompanied by corporal punishment, and is widely thought to have been responsible for the decline of the Welsh language. Despite having an iconic status in popular understandings of Wales’s history, there has never before been a study of where, when and why the Welsh Not was used. This book is an account of the different ways children were punished for speaking Welsh in nineteenth-century schools and the consequences of this for children, communities and the linguistic future of Wales. It shows how the exclusion of Welsh was not only traumatic for pupils but also hindered them in learning English – the very opposite of what it was meant to achieve. Gradually, Welsh came to be used increasingly in Victorian schools, making them more humane places but also more effective mechanisms in the anglicisation of Wales.
The promises and perils of a free rural inter-city transportation scheme: A mixed-methods study from Northern Saskatchewan
Authors: Alhassan Jacob Albin Korem , Fuller Daniel , Woytowich Ron 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Objective
Transportation is a critical health determinant, yet the last decade has witnessed rapid disinvestment across Canada (particularly in rural contexts) with negative health consequences. We sought to explore and describe the benefits and challenges faced in operating the first community-driven free-transportation scheme in Saskatchewan that emerged in response to widespread unavailability of public transportation due to budget cuts (austerity).

Methods
We conducted a mixed-methods community-based participatory research study involving 22 interviews with bus riders and service administrators. We also performed descriptive statistics and chi-squared analyses on bus rider data (data on 1185 trips routinely collected between July 2023 and December 2023) to explore sociodemographic characteristics and trip purposes of bus riders.

Results
All trips were completed by 616 community members using the free bus service between July 2023 and December 2023. Community members took an average of 5 trips (median = 2.0) with a maximum of 22 trips being taken by one community member (1.9% of all trips). Most trips were by women (53%), and older adults mostly used the free bus for medical purposes (22% of riders were older adults and 34% of these used the bus for medical reasons). Qualitatively, the bus service has increased access to care and promotes social participation and autonomy, especially for older adults. The service however faces some challenges, including funding disruptions and difficulty recruiting and retaining drivers.

Conclusion
Free inter-community transportation (i.e. transportation across cities and municipalities) promotes health equity and access. In contexts without access to public transportation, governments could support community-driven initiatives through increased funding.
Factors Supporting Independence of Children during Transition to School. Theoretical Overview
Authors: Нисская Анастасия , Чувилина Арина 
Published: February 2025

Among the challenges faced by first-graders at the beginning of schooling, a special place is occupied by the development of independence, including in learning activities. It requires cognitive initiative, the ability to independently plan, predict and implement learning activities, to control and evaluate them. At the same time, the skills of independence (everyday, communicative, cognitive) developed in preschool age can be leveled in the case of a difficult transition to school.
The question arises as to what ways to support children's independence during the transition from kindergarten to school are described by modern researchers and practitioners.
Analysis of the literature has allowed us to formulate an idea of the complex nature of this support. Among its factors, attention and consideration of the age-psychological and individual characteristics of the child can be highlighted; the supportive and consistent position of the family and the involvement of parents in education; the rejection of universal strict requirements in favor of flexibility, sensitivity to the needs of the child and encouraging his independence in preschool education; adequate teacher expectations for the child, the possibility of individualization of education and purposeful development SENG is in the first grade; consistency ("continuity", "continuity") of goals, approaches and methods of organizing the educational process in the family, preschool organization and school.

Background: The aim of the study is to use eco-friendly materials to combat the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum by taking advantage of the resources found in nature by extracting volatile oils from Eucalyptus globulus and Artemisia vulgaris in combating this pest. Methods: The current study was carried out at the Directorate of Diyala Agriculture’s plant protection laboratory during April 2023 to evaluate the essential oils, which included Eucalyptus globulusand Artemisia vulgariswith three concentrations of 5, 15 and 25µL L-1 air,at three time 12 hour, 24 hour, 48 hour, against larvae and adults of Tribolium castaneum, under laboratory conditions. The experiment was conducted to evaluate the mortality rate for both larvae and adults Tribolium castaneum. Result: The essential oils of Eucalyptus and Artemisia with a concentration of 25µL L-1 air, recorded the highest mortality (100%, 46.66%) after 48 hours, exposure time against the larvae respectively. While the percentage against of adults recorded (100%, 90%) after 48 hours. For Eucalyptus and Artemisia, respectively. It was observed that there was a direct proportion between the duration of exposure and mortality rates, with the highest mortality rates reaching 55.23 and 63.81 after 48 hours for both larvae and adults, respectively. The same thing applies to the relationship between the rate of effect of concentrations and mortality rates. As the concentration increases, deaths increase.Noting that there were no significant differences between the volatile oils and the insecticide treatment Deltamethrin 10%EC. This confirms the reliability of essential oils extracted from plants in the applied field of pest management in store products.
Víctimas de trata de personas en servidumbre doméstica en Colombia
Authors: Fuentes Sánchez Daniel Antonio , Alarcón Moreno Nancy Edith 
Published: February 2025

Las personas que se desempeñan en el trabajo doméstico en Colombia, han tenido que generar procesos para la reivindicación de sus derechos, especialmente para que esta labor sea reconocida como un trabajo real y que por ende se garantice todas las acreencias laborales que por ley se han establecido en este país. No obstante, poco o nada se habla de las violencias que en ese entorno viven principalmente las mujeres; por esto desde esta investigación se busca identificar y visibilizar violencias especialmente en la servidumbre doméstica en mujeres en Colombia. Para lograrlo se acude a una metodología de corte mixto con el fin recabar información a partir de 95 encuestas a mujeres trabajadoras domésticas, 25 respuestas de entidades que abordan la trata de personas, 4 entrevistas a organizaciones y 2 grupos focales. Con los resultados se permite colegir que las mujeres trabajadoras domésticas han vivido violencias en su mayoría de carácter psicológico y sexual; de ellas 5 mujeres se auto reconocieron como víctimas de servidumbre doméstica. Estas mujeres han manejado afectaciones sin ningún tipo de acompañamiento y no cuentan con herramientas para identificar la servidumbre doméstica en sus contextos.

L'archipel des Iles Cook
Authors: Cherrier Jean-François 
Published: February 2025

Les îles Cook sont constituées de 15 îles réparties sur 2 000 000 km2 dans l'océan Pacifique. Elles sont situées à 1 200 km de Tahiti et à 4 700 km d'Hawaï. Rarotonga est l'île principale. C'est là que se trouve la capitale, Avarua. Les îles se divisent en deux catégories : les îles du Sud, volcaniques et couvertes d'une végétation dense, et les îles du Nord, coralliennes et couvertes de cocotiers. L'auteur fait l'inventaire des principales espèces florales parmi les 650 existantes. Les plus nombreuses se trouvent bien sûr dans les îles du Sud, aussi appelées « îles hautes ». Les forêts y sont assez petites, mais les îles constituent souvent des écosystèmes uniques et fragiles.

Published: February 2025

The solution of time-independent Schrodinger equation (TISE) has been studied by several researchers. In this research, a TISE solution is found by using the finite difference method which is implemented in computer program code by using the Python language. TISE in the form of a second order differential equation is solved by using the finite difference method. In order to normalize the resulting wave function it is necessary to divide it by square root of the integral of the squared wave function. The integral method used is the Riemann method. In order to prove quantitatively that the TISE solution of the finite difference method is the same as or close to that of the analytical method, it is carried out by using linear regression and the z test. The research results show that the linear regression results from the two methods are nearly close. This is able to be seen from the values of gradient (m), intercept (c) and coefficient of determination (R2) which are close to ideal values, namely, 1, 0 and 1, respectively. In addition, from the z test it is concluded that the null hypothesis H0 is accepted, which means the solution of finite difference method is equal to analytical solution by a confidence level of 95 percent.
Pregnancy and Childbearing for Orthopaedic Surgeons
Authors: Cristofaro Caroline , Bouchard Maryse 
Published: February 2025

Abstract:
While female representation within surgical specialties is increasing, the field of orthopaedic surgery remains male-dominated. Residency, fellowship, and early career coincide with the childbearing years of female surgeons. Given the overlap between these critical career stages and years of childbearing, there has been a rise in articles characterizing the experiences and perceptions around childbearing and its impact on surgeons and their careers. Multiple studies have reported the alarmingly high rates of pregnancy complications, infertility, pregnancy loss, voluntary delay in childbearing, and postpartum depression in surgeons, including those in the field of orthopaedic surgery. However, perinatal complications are not the only barriers female orthopaedic surgeons may face should they decide to start a family alongside their career. Negative perceptions and lack of support from their colleagues and institutions have also been reported as commonplace. Limited but successful support programs, policies, and resources that are designed to support female surgeons and their partners have been created in North America. Successful support programs can be used to inspire institutional policies across North America to hopefully improve the pregnancy and childbirth experiences of orthopaedic surgeons.

Published: February 2025

Abstract

Purpose: To describe the image patterns related to POCUS evaluation of tibial fracture healing and delayed healing.
Methods: Between August 2020 and December 2023, patients with tibial fractures treated with intramedullary nails were evaluated monthly using ultrasonographic and radiographic evaluations and documentation. Ultrasonographic image patterns are described.
Results: Six different frequent patterns were found: (1) disorganized cotton-like image at the fracture line, (2) small bump with bridging callus in lower-energy trauma, (3) bridging callus with displaced cortical fragment, (4) larger callus with mountain formation, either continuous or with a lip-like image, (5) mushroom-like bridging callus with height greater than length, and (6) V-shaped image with irregular borders and corkscrew signal, indicating nonunion.
Conclusion: Imaging patterns can help to understand the healing process and guide future research on bone healing. Knowledge of the early stage of bone healing can influence decision making in delayed union and nonunion treatment.

Abstract

Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) represent 8% of the human genome. They are remnants of ancient infections of germinal cells. HERVs are no longer infectious, but some retroviral sequences can be activated and their enhanced expressions have been implicated in a number of diseases, including neuropsychiatric disorders. HERV transcription is regulated by TRIM28 and SETDB1, which are directly involved in the regulation of epigenetic processes, in neural cell differentiation, and brain inflammation. HERVs and TRIM28/SETDB1 expressions have not been investigated in patients affected by anorexia nervosa (AN). We assessed, through a PCR real-time Taqman amplification assay, the transcription levels of pol genes of HERV-H and -K, of env genes of Syncytin 1 (SYN1) and SYN2 as well as of TRIM28 and SETDB1 in whole blood of 37 adolescents with AN and in healthy controls (HC) of comparable age. The transcriptional levels of HERV-H-pol and HERV-K-pol as well as of SETDB1 were significantly higher in AN patients as compared with HC, while no differences were observed for SYN1, SYN2, and TRIM28. Over-expressions of HERVs and of SETDB1 in adolescents with AN suggest that they may be main actors in the pathophysiology of AN and open the way to development of novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract

Background: This study examines the prevalence and incidence of dementia in Ecuador, with a focus on understanding demographic and social factors associated with increased risk. Data were obtained from the Institute of Neurosciences of Guayaquil, covering patient records from 2010 to 2022. The purpose was to identify prevalence trends and key risk factors to inform targeted prevention and early intervention efforts in high-risk groups.
Methods: This observational, correlational study analysed patient data to estimate dementia prevalence and incidence. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics to calculate overall and age-specific prevalence rates, while incidence was calculated per 1,000 person-years. Correlations and chi-square analyses were used to evaluate associations between dementia and potential risk factors, including age, gender, education level, and marital status.
Results: The overall prevalence of dementia was 3.1%, with higher rates among women (1.8%) compared to men (1.3%). Dementia incidence was calculated at 2.4 per 1,000 person-years. Prevalence increased significantly with age, from 1.2% in individuals aged 65–69 to 54.8% in those aged 95 and older. Advanced age, female gender, lower education levels, and lack of a marital partner were associated with higher dementia prevalence.
Conclusions: These findings highlight a rising dementia prevalence in Ecuador, particularly among women and older individuals, with social and educational factors contributing to increased risk. The results underscore the need for tailored dementia prevention and early intervention strategies, especially as prevalence rates continue to rise across Latin America.
