Peek polymer in orthodontics : a pilot study on children
2017
The purpose of the study has been making the orthodontic space maintainers in PEEK polymer (Polyetheretherketone) through a digital workflow. New digital technologies are taking hold in diagnosis, therapy and in dental laboratories. The digital world can help dentist in diagnosis and therapy: -diagnosis through the acquisition of radiographic images (CBCT) or scanners which allow the creation of 3D digital models - about therapy thanks to dental CAD CAM system. It consists of design devices through an dedicated software CAD and then realize devices through CAM system. We used digital system to improve the quality of the treatment and reduce costs. Peek polymer, subject of studies in recent …

Otopatie professionali
2007
Nei lavoratori esposti a rischio chimico la sorveglianza sanitaria risulta strumento indispensabile nella prevenzione delle malattie professionali. Dalla letteratura si evince che diversi tossici sono implicati nella patogenesi del danno uditivo, esercitando un effetto ototossico in diversi settori industriali. A tal proposito il nostro studio si è rivolto in particolare alla individuazione di eventuali effetti otolesivi precoci attraverso un protocollo clinico e di esami di laboratorio specifici. For those workers exposed to chemical risks, health supervision is necessary in order to prevent job diseases. From our literature we know that several toxic agents are involved in the pathogenesi…
Parents or Peers? Predictors of Prosocial Behavior and Aggression: A Longitudinal Study
2019
The aim of this longitudinal study was to determine the associations among peer attachment, warmth from the mother and father, strict control by the mother and father, prosocial behavior, and physical and verbal aggression in adolescence.

Participants were 192 boys and 255 girls (M = 14.70 years; SD = 0.68) in wave 1. In the study participated 11 schools. For three successive years, participants reported on their fathers’ and mothers’ warmth and strict control, peer attachment, prosocial behavior, and aggression. Structural equations modeling …
The premise, promise and disillusion of the ADHD categorisation - family narrative about the child's broken school trajectory
2019
This study presents co-narrated school experiences of a young Finnish girl diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and those of her parents. The discourse analysis of the family interview focused on the discrepant ways family members gave meanings to and mobilised the ADHD categorisation while narrating their broken school trajectory. The results showed that the ADHD diagnosis was laden with the promise of the whole family being recognised differently by the school. However, this cultural promise proved disillusioning as daughter's support needs and parents' expertise were not recognised nor did the diagnostic category emancipate from stigmatising identities and blame…

Approach We conducted conduct a systematic survey of various TCM herbal pre…
Promoção da saúde: O renascimento de uma ideologia
2004
A concepção actual de promoção de saúde, educação para a saúde e prevenção da doença é suportada por ideologias algo adulteradas pela realidade social. Tendo em conta a proliferação epistemológica destes conceitos no final do século XX pretende-se, no presente artigo, elaborar uma reflexão crítica em torno das múltiplas racionalidades estratégicas em que os conceitos se organizam, bem como, abordar os paradoxos que se instalam ao nível dos determinantes biopsicossociais dos comportamentos salutogénicos. Partilhando responsabilidades, os profissionais de saúde, devem, colectiva e proactivamente, desempenhar um papel significativo como promotores de saúde, modelando e reforçando o significado…
