title: Cephalometric evaluation of changes in vertical dimension and molar position in adult non-extraction treatment with clear aligners and traditional fixed appliances

description: ABSTRACT Introduction: Orthodontists have been using clear aligners to treat malocclusions, and one potential effect of treatment with orthodontic aligners is the intrusion and/or resists extrusion of the posterior teeth. This “bite-block effect” is primarily anecdotal due to the frequent occurrence of posterior open bites in patients after clear aligner therapy. Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare changes promoted by clear aligners and traditional fixed appliances in cephalometric measurements of the vertical dimension and molar position in adult patients with Class I malocclusion treated with non-extraction. Methods: Pre- and post-treatment lateral cephalometric radiographs of adult patients treated with either clear aligners (n=44) or traditional fixed appliances (n=22) were selected for retrospective analysis. Eight interval measurements and one nominal measurement were evaluated: anterior overbite (OB), mandibular plane angle related to cranial base (SN_MP) and related to Frankfort (FMA), lower molar height (L6H) and upper molar height (U6H), palatal plane to mandibular plane angle (PP_MP), lower facial height (LFH), total facial height (TFH), and posterior open bite (Posterior_OB). A single evaluator traced all cephalographs, and changes in select measures of the vertical dimension were compared within and between groups. Results: OB decreased (1.15 mm) and L6H increased (0.63 mm) in the traditional fixed appliance group. Mandibular plane angles (related to cranial base and to Frankfort) increased (0.43° and 0.53°, respectively) in the clear aligner group, but just FMA showed significant difference between groups (difference of 0.53°). LFH and TFH increased (ranging from 0.52 mm to 0.80 mm) in both groups, with no differences between treatment modality. Presence of visible posterior open bite significantly increased over the course of treatment. OB, FMA and L6H exhibited an interaction between treatment stage (pre- and post-treatment) and modality (clear aligner therapy and traditional fixed appliances), but no interaction among these three variables was found. Conclusions: The evidence does not support the theory that clear aligner therapy produces better vertical dimension control than traditional fixed appliances. Traditional fixed appliance therapy slightly extruded the lower molar, and clear aligner therapy produced a slightly mandibular backward rotation.

title: Planning and orthodontic preparation for maxillary incisors reshaping

description: ABSTRACT Introduction: Having a beautiful smile is the main desire of people seeking dental treatment. To achieve this goal, many variables must be considered. These include tooth alignment, color, shape and size, besides their harmonious relationship with the lips and face. An individualized diagnosis is essential to achieve the best result. Within this context, facial analysis and the characteristics of shape, size and position of maxillary incisors play a key role. Methods: This paper describes clinical situations in which interdisciplinary treatment was performed to achieve esthetic results in a conservative manner and ensuring greater stability. In most cases requiring reshaping of maxillary incisors for esthetic reasons, prior orthodontic movement is essential. The main focus of this paper is to discuss the many variables involved in these situations. Results and Conclusion: The results of treatments described in this paper were obtained by means of a multidisciplinary approach, involving Orthodontics and Esthetic Dentistry, acting in harmony and recognizing their possibilities and limitations, in order to offer patients the best esthetic solution for their smile. The best treatment option is not always the easiest or fastest. The dentist, as a health professional, should consider the patients’ wishes but also perform treatments with minimal intervention, and the best and most predictable esthetic result, also focusing on function and health.

title: Contemporary Portuguese diasporas. Associations and other social networks in Portuguese migration.

description: Abstract: The global interest in diaspora engagement has been growing all over the world. Examples of this are policies linked to the return of qualified emigrants, to the promotion of brain gain or aimed at stimulating the formation of diaspora networks. Through public policies and an effective communication strategy it might be possible, at least from the point of view of the country of origin, to reverse the feeling of sociological loss that the expatriation of part of the national society represents. Based on a global mapping of the Portuguese associative movement, the article is structured in two parts. In the first part, we discuss the theoretical perspectives which have analysed the policies and practices of migrants’ attachment to their countries of origin. In the second, starting from the analysis of recent Portuguese emigration, we analyse, through a proposal of a typology, the current organisational forms of the Portuguese abroad.

title: Interfacial Electron Transfer in Dye-Sensitized TiO2 Devices for Solar Energy Conversion

description: The development of cost-effective molecular devices that efficiently capture and convert sunlight into other useful forms of energy is a promising approach to meet the world’s increasing energy demands. These devices are designed through a successful combination of materials and molecules that work synergistically to promote light-driven chemical reactions. Light absorption by a surface-bound chromophore triggers a sequence of interfacial electron transfer processes. The efficiencies of the devices are governed by the dynamic balance between the electron transfer reactions that promote energy conversion and undesirable side reactions. Therefore, it is necessary to understand and control these processes to optimize the design of the components of the devices and to achieve higher energy conversion efficiencies. In this context, this review discusses general aspects of interfacial electron transfer reactions in dye-sensitized TiO2 molecular devices for solar energy conversion. A theoretical background on the Marcus-Gerischer theory for interfacial electron transfer and theoretical models for electron transport within TiO2 films are provided. An overview of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and dye-sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cells (DSPECs) is presented, and the electron transfer and transport processes that occur in both classes of devices are emphasized and detailed. Finally, the main spectroscopic, electrochemical and photoelectrochemical experimental techniques that are employed to elucidate the kinetics of the electron transfer reactions discussed in this review are presented.

title: Venezuelans in Argentina, the United States and Portugal: a diaspora on the making?

description: Abstract: In this article, we argue that recent Venezuelan migration is a diaspora on the making. Based on participant observations and interviews with key informants and Venezuelan immigrants living in Argentina, the United States (Florida), and Portugal, we establish that the shared experience arising from the humanitarian crisis in their country of origin, and their common transnational reality is contributing to the process institutionalization and consolidation of the Venezuelan diaspora.

title: Entrepreneurship and Strategy: Analyzing Themes from Bibliometric Studies in the Light of the Concept of Strategic Entrepreneurship

description: ABSTRACT Entrepreneurship and strategy have common interests of research and they are close fields of studies; however, it is important to know the boundaries of each research field to preserve the identity of each discipline, as well as to advance in the comprehension of the strategic entrepreneurship domain. This research aims to identify common and distinct themes between entrepreneurship and strategy to understand the boundaries of each discipline, the interfaces between them, as well as contribute to the discussion of the strategic entrepreneurship concept. A scoping literature review was carried out about bibliometric studies on entrepreneurship, strategy, and entrepreneurship and strategy together. From 62 bibliometric studies in entrepreneurship, 18 in strategy, and 22 in entrepreneurship and strategy, a thematic analysis was performed. Entrepreneurship bibliometric resulted in 25 themes, strategy in 9 themes, and 12 in entrepreneurship and strategy together. This research presents a theoretical contribution to the field of research in entrepreneurship, strategy, and strategic entrepreneurship. Comparing the bibliometric studies in each field evidenced what are the themes focused on each discipline. To the concept of strategic entrepreneurship, results of this research contribute to advance in the comprehension of what can be entrepreneurship and what can be strategy in the concept, as the gap of studies. Furthermore, this study provides inputs about contexts of study to strategic entrepreneurship, such as familiar, social, and sustainable ventures.

title: “Places of resonance” and the production of a Senegalese musical diaspora in southern Brazil

description: Abstract. Senegalese migration to Brazil is part of a wider migratory flow of nationals from African countries who found themselves attracted by the receptive opportunities that the country offered between 2010 and 2015. This article stems from a broader ethnomusicological research among African musicians settled in southern Brazil, carried out between 2018 and 2019, and it discusses the production of a Senegalese musical diaspora through the narratives, transits and musical collaborations of a Senegalese rapper in his residency experience in the state. In the wake of a consolidated interest in ethnomusicology for the study of the multiple relationships between music and migration, we seek to explore the critical contributions of these studies in relation to notions of expressive sound-music cultures as territorialized and fixed entities. From this perspective, participatory ethnography has contributed to think African migrant musical practices beyond the conceptions that associate them with a cohesive ethnic community.
