Published: December 2022

A cárie dentária pode ser definida como uma perda localizada dos tecidos dentários calcificados. Assim como a CD, a obesidade e sobrepeso podem ter origens multifatoriais, bem como alimentação inadequada e alto consumo de carboidratos fermentáveis. O excesso de peso apresenta riscos e consequências graves à saúde. Elevados índices de perda dentária em mulheres adultas podem ser atribuídos a uma má higiene bucal e alto consumo de carboidratos Na microbiota oral, Streptococcus mutans é responsável pelo desenvolvimento da cárie dentária (CD). Essas bactérias metabolizam vários carboidratos produzindo metabólitos ácidos. A presença de S. mutans resistente a antimicrobianos pode ser um problema para a saúde humana e o uso inadequado de antibióticos favorece a resistência e o aumento de bactérias resistentes. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a presença de S. mutans resistentes a antimicrobianos em mulheres com obesidade/sobrepeso atendidos em um núcleo de odontologia. Para isso, foi realizada a coleta de saliva não estimulada, a qual foi processada para isolamento de S. mutans e para a realização de teste de sensibilidade a compostos antimicrobianos por disco-difusão. Foi possível identificar presença de S. mutans em 18% das amostras (n=3), das quais uma amostra apresentou resistência aos antibióticos cefotaxima, clindamicina e ceftriaxona, duas amostras apresentaram sensibilidade aos antibióticos. Conclusão: São necessários novos estudos que contribuam com melhores resultados sobre o S. mutans e a resistência a antimicrobianos em mulheres com obesidade/sobrepeso visto que o S. mutans se faz presente na microbiota oral humana, podendo ocasionar lesões dentárias.

Published: December 2022

Background: The Ministry of Public Health National Health Strategy 2018–2022 has recognized the need for accurate, updated, and representative data that truly reflects the occupational health and safety status in Qatar. In 2015, the Hamad Trauma Center received a research grant to create a unified registry for work-related injuries in Qatar [WURQ], whose processes and research findings have been reported earlier. This paper shall describe the findings from the initial 1-year collection of data on work-related injuries [WRIs] and deaths in Qatar for the year 2020 through the WURQ database.
Methods: The WURQ database was queried for all WRIs from January 1 to December 31, 2020. These data were classified by date of injury, age, sex, nationality, mechanism of injury, severity of injury, location of medical consultation, and clinical outcome.
Results: Out of a total worker population of 2,174,828 [2.29 occupational fatalities per 100,000 workers, there were 50 deaths caused by WRIs]. The majority of WRI deaths were in the prehospital setting [60%] with the majority of fatal injuries occurring at the worksite [64%] and 22% due to falls. Five hundred six workers sustained severe WRIs [23.26 severe occupational injuries per 100,000 workers], and 37,601 workers sustained mild to moderate WRIs [1,728.91 mild to moderate occupational injuries per 100,000 workers]. The severe WRIs were most commonly due to falls [226 out of 506] from height [45%] and falling heavy objects [80 out of 506] [16%]. Road traffic injuries [RTI] make up one-fourth [133 out of 506] of all severe WRIs.
Conclusion: WURQ has described WRIs in Qatar using a purpose-built and nationally linked occupational injury registry. Occupational injury and injury fatality statistics, for Qatar in 2020, are lower than or comparable with those from other high-income countries. This data can be used to inform worksite inspections, investigations, worker safety education, environmental improvements, and injury prevention programs to make Qatar safer for all its workers.
Ores Drive Operations—Economic Geology Is the Foundation of Geometallurgy
Authors: Hoal Karin E. Olson , Frenzel Max 
Published: December 2022

Editor’s note: The aim of the Geology and Mining series is to introduce early career professionals and students to various aspects of mineral exploration, development, and mining in order to share the experiences and insight of each author on the myriad of topics involved with the mineral industry and the ways in which geoscientists contribute to each.

Abstract
Economic geology and geometallurgy are intimately linked. Geologists understand the value in knowing the details of ore variability, the formation of mineral deposits, the continuity and the spatial distribution of ore types, and the mineral and textural characteristics that control grades. Beyond exploration and discovery, however, explorers may not recognize that the geologic knowledge developed around a mineral prospect is also essential to miners and metallurgists, reclamation and environmental specialists, and economists and investors who are interested in developing the discovery. Geometallurgy is the interdisciplinary method that links geologic, mineralogical, and geochemical characteristics of mineral deposits to the mining, processing, and metallurgical activities that are involved in the development of mines. Geometallurgy is not a new field, but recent developments in analytical capabilities and the ability to conduct statistical analysis and predictive modeling of large data sets have resulted in geometallurgy becoming a widely used method for optimizing mining operations. While there are many approaches, depending upon the nature of the ore deposit and the mine operating conditions and goals, the most important step explorers can take is to establish partnerships with the other areas of specialization in the project (mining, metallurgy, environmental, economics) and work together to understand the critical factors in order to best develop the deposit. Representative sampling to determine geologic variability and uncertainty and understanding the controls of throughput and recovery in the mining operation are fundamental to optimizing projects. For exploration and prefeasibility timelines, information on ore characteristics and spatial variability can provide a preliminary assessment of how material in a potential ore deposit can be processed.

Introduction:
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has resulted in a global pandemic with several hundred million infections worldwide. COVID-19 causes systemic complications that last beyond the initial infection. It is not known whether patients who undergo elective orthopaedic surgeries after COVID-19 are at increased risk of complications. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether patients who undergo orthopaedic procedures after recent COVID-19 diagnosis are at increased risk of complications compared with those who have not had a recent COVID-19 diagnosis.

Methods:
The TriNetX Research Network database was queried for patients undergoing elective orthopaedic surgeries from April 2020 to January 2022 in the following subspecialties: arthroscopic surgery, total joint arthroplasty, lumbar fusion, upper extremity surgery, foot and ankle (FA) surgery. Cohorts were defined by patients undergoing surgery with a diagnosis of COVID-19 from 7 to 90 days before surgery and those with no COVID-19 diagnosis 0 to 90 days before surgery. These cohorts were propensity-score matched based on differences in demographics and comorbidities. The matched cohorts were evaluated using measures of association analysis for complications, emergency department (ER) visits, and readmissions occurring 90 days postoperatively.

Results:
Patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery were more likely to experience venous thromboembolism (VTE) (P = 0.006), myocardial infarction (P = 0.001), and ER visits (P = 0.001). Patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty were more likely to experience VTE (P < 0.001), myocardial infarction (P < 0.001), pneumonia (P< 0.001), and ER visits (P = 0.037). Patients undergoing lumbar fusion were more likely to experience VTE (P = 0.016), infection (P < 0.001), pneumonia (P < 0.001), and readmission (P = 0.006). Patients undergoing upper extremity surgery were more likely to experience VTE (P = 0.001) and pneumonia (P = 0.015). Patients undergoing foot and ankle surgery were more likely to experience VTE (P < 0.001) and pneumonia (P < 0.001).

Conclusion:
There is an increased risk of complications in patients undergoing orthopaedic surgery after COVID-19 infection; all cohorts were at increased risk of VTE and most at increased risk of pneumonia. Additional investigation is needed to stratify the risk for individual patients.

Shared commissioning in intermunicipal partnerships. Research into strengthening democratic governance and control by municipalities on joint regulations in the Rivierenland region
Due to the increasing complexity of municipal tasks, municipalities are increasingly collaborating in intermunicipal partnerships, usually in the form of joint arrangements in the Netherlands. However, the democratic legitimacy of joint arrangements has been under discussion for some time. The question is how to explain and improve the lack of democratic direction and control in common arrangements. The principal-agent theory is used to investigate which mechanisms can explain the lack of direction and control. Four joint schemes in the Dutch Rivierenland region were studied using a questionnaire sent to 44 councillors and 14 interviews with civil servants and political executives. The questionnaire shows that the lack of control is a particular problem. According to the civil servants and political executives interviewed, this is due to the limited attitude of municipalities as commissioning parties. In practice, it turns out to be difficult to formulate clear assignments, there appears to be limited coordination between municipalities and there appears to be a lack of trust between municipal councils and the joint arrangements examined. As a result, joint arrangements have acquired more and more independence vis-à-vis the municipalities, resulting in limited democratic legitimacy.

Regionalization and the roles of councillors
More and more municipal tasks are carried out in regional partnerships. Little is known about the way in which councillors interpret their roles when it comes to regional cooperation. Research into councillors from the Dutch municipality of Barneveld shows that regional cooperation is necessary for the municipality, but at the same time it removes important issues, powers and influence from local government. Council members feel that they cannot fulfil their supervisory, framework-setting and representative roles sufficiently at regional level. For pragmatic reasons, they often leave the control to the council, they find frameworks complicated and time consuming due to coordination with other councils and they prefer local visibility for the voters. The resulting democratic deficit is seen as a major limitation of regional cooperation. According to experts, democratic legitimacy can be promoted by strengthening the roles of councillors, such as approaching issues from a regional perspective, collaborating with other municipal councils in the region and applying innovative forms of control, framework setting and representation.
NI UTOPÍA, NI DISTOPÍA: VIAJE Y PREHISTORIA EN LA NARRATIVA GRÁFICA LA MUCHACHA SALVAJE, DE MIREIA PÉREZ
Authors: Raventós-Pons Esther 
Published: December 2022

Mireia Pérez, in La muchacha salvaje, imagines a mythical world, and goes back to the origins of our civilization to better understand the world in which she lives and women’s position in our society. Her graphic narrative focuses on the journey of the protagonist through different communities and modes of living that opens her eyes to other ways of thinking, being and seeing the world. This article examines the importance of the journey in shaping the identity of the main character. A protagonist who finds herself “out of place”, who lives displaced and in constant movement. Her travels through this imaginary world provide the arena to consider the female bildungsroman, the nomadic subject, the importance of silence in the narrative, as well as notions of subjectivity, deterritorialization, and the place of female authors in the comic world.
Resumen
Mireia Pérez, en La muchacha salvaje, inventa un mundo mítico y nos traslada a los orígenes de nuestra civilización para comprender mejor el mundo en que vive y la posición de la mujer en nuestra sociedad. La narrativa gráfica se centra en el viaje de la protagonista por diferentes comunidades y diferentes costumbres que le abren los ojos a otras formas de pensar, ser y ver el mundo. Este artículo examina el papel que cobra el viaje en la configuración de la identidad de un personaje que se encuentra “fuera de lugar”, que vive desplazado y en tránsito constante. El motivo temático del viaje por este mundo imaginario nos lleva a considerar varios aspectos, entre ellos, el bildungsroman femenino, el sujeto nómada, el silencio en esta narrativa gráfica así como nociones de subjetividad, desterritorialización y la situación de las autoras en el mundo del cómic.
