A sample of non-nutritive sucking habits (pacifier and digit) in portuguese children and its relation with the molar classes of angle
2018
Background Little is known about the effect of non-nutritive sucking habits (pacifier and digital sucking) in the prevalence of molar Class in mixed dentition. The aim of this study was determinate the relation between non-nutritive sucking habits, and Angle´s molar Class, in the horizontal plane, and it´s relation with gender. A convenience sample of 326 children with ages between 6 and 12 years was selected from three schools of Oporto. Material and methods To collect the epidemiologic data, was used a method recommended by the WHO. An indirect questionnaire about the medical history, dental habits, was used. It was adapted from Sanchez-Molins and validated by Clinical Dental III of Integ…
Ergebnisse der kontrastverstärkten MR-Angiographie der aortoiliakalen Gefäße mit einem 1-molaren Kontrastmittel bei 1,0 T: Vergleich zur i. a. DSA
2004
PURPOSE To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of contrast-enhanced MR angiography (CE-MRA) using a 1.0 molar contrast agent at 1.0 T for the diagnosis of abdominal aortic aneurysms and stenoses of renal or iliac arteries in comparison to intraarterial digital subtraction angiography (DSA). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 19 patients with the suspicion of abdominal aortic aneurysm or stenosis of renal or iliac arteries were examined with CE-MRA at 1.0 T. Intra-arterial DSA served as reference in all cases. After test bolus tracking, 10 or 8 ml of the 1.0 molar contrast agent Gadobutrol corresponding to a dose of 0.1 - 0.15 mmol/kg bw were injected and imaging performed using a FLASH-3D sequen…
Die dynamische31Phosphor-Magnetresonanz-Spektroskopie des M. quadriceps: Therapiebedingte Veränderungen bei arterieller Verschlußkrankheit
1997
PURPOSE: The present investigation aimed at examining changes in muscle metabolism caused by treatment of arterial occlusive disease, using dynamic 31-phosphorus methods. METHOD: 32 patients with arterial occlusive disease were examined in a 1.5 T apparatus with a 6 cm surface coil before and after treatment. The metabolic changes in the quadriceps muscles were visualised during a 36 s phosphorus spectrum during rest, exercise (isometric and isotonic) and during a period of recovery. RESULTS: Vascular therapy resulted in a significant increase in the duration of both types of exercise during dynamic phosphorus spectroscopy (isometric exercise: 282 s against 199 s: p = 0.002, isotonic exerci…
Expression of the proto-oncogene c-myc in human stenotic aortocoronary bypass grafts.
2002
Summary Proliferation and differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) are central events in vascular pathobiology and play a major role in the development of stenotic and restenotic lesions [ 15, 27 ] . The proto-oncogene c-myc and other early cell cycle-regulating genes have been implicated in the induction of cell proliferation and differentiation under diverse pathophysiological conditions [ 11, 13 ] . In the present study we analyzed c-myc mRNAexpression by indirect nonradioactive in situ hybridization technique (NISH) in human stenotic venous bypass grafts (n = 32) retrieved during re-do operations of coronary artery disease and compared the results with 28 native veins (ven…
Evaluation of the healing of precoated vascular dacron prostheses.
1991
Knitted and woven Dacron grafts commercially coated with bovine collagen, gelatin and human albumin were implanted end-to-side between the infrarenal aorta and the bifurcation in 35 growing pigs. Grafts were explanted after 4, 8 and 12 weeks and compared to 6 uncoated knitted prostheses preclotted with blood that served as a control. Uncoated grafts rapidly developed a firmly attached neointima lined with endothelium. Compared with coated grafts the thrombus-free area of uncoated grafts was significantly larger (P less than 0.05). The slow resorption of albumin resulted in a delayed and incomplete neointimal healing and failing graft incorporation. Although the bovine collagen was only mini…
Neuromuscular Adaptations after Blood Flow Restriction Training Combined with Nutritional Supplementation: A Preliminary Study
2019
Blood fl ow restriction training (BFRT) has been shown to be an eff ective alternative technique to conventional resistance training to increase skeletal muscle hypertrophy and strength. However, neuromuscular response to BFRT in combination with nutritional supplementation has rarely been studied. Th e purpose of this study was to investigate the eff ects of BFRT combined with creatine monohydrate (CrM) and/or hydroxymethyl butyrate (HMB) on skeletal muscle size and strength. Fift een healthy males were randomly divided into three groups: a) BFRT without supplementation (C-BFR); b) BFRT with CrM supplementation (0.3 g / kg-1) (CrM-BFR); and c) BFRT with CrM (0.3 g / kg-1) and HMB (3 g) sup…
Un raro caso di Occlusione Intestinale:Fitobezoar
2004
Gli Autori riportano il caso di una paziente di 62 anni affetta da fitobezoar gastrico, sottoposto a frammentazione e asportazione per via endoscopica. A distanza di 36 ore circa dall'esecuzione di tale metodica, la paziente ha manifestato l'insorgenza di una sindrome occlusiva. L'esame TC addome evidenziava il digiuno e le prime anse ileali sovradistese dopo somministrazione di mdc per os. Nel lume di un'ansa ileale, a valle, si evidenziava la presenza di una formazione disomogenea, del diametro 2,5x4 cm nel cui contesto si rilevano piccole bolle di gas, da riferire in 1° ipotesi a bezoar. La paziente veniva quindi sottoposta a intervento chirurgico di enterotomia e asportazione del materi…

The largest bilateral gemination of permanent maxillary central incisors: report of a case
2013
Gemination is defined as an attempt to make two teeth from one enamel organ. Bilateral presentation of this phenomenon is very rare, with prevalence of 0.01% to 0.04% in the primary, and 0.05% in the permanent dentition. This paper describes a rare case of huge bilateral gemination of permanent maxillary central incisors in a nine-year-old Iranian boy with poor aesthetic. The patient did not have history of anomaly in his primary dentition and in his family either. This type of dental anomaly can cause clinical problems in the form of malocclusion, poor aesthetic, and impaction of adjacent teeth, caries, and periodontal destruction. Key words:Gemination, central incisor, bilateral.
