Aumento do Rebordo Alveolar com Enxerto em Bloco Impresso Personalizado: Relato de Caso / Alveolar ridge augmentation with custom 3D-printed block graft: Case report

A utilização da tecnologia CAD/CAM (computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing) e 3D (tridimensional) para reconstruções alveolares na implantodontia permite o planejamento pré-operatório detalhado, o design do resultado desejado do enxerto e a avaliação virtual do resultado em relação à reconstrução protética. Este trabalho objetiva detalhar a técnica cirúrgica de enxerto ósseo sintético confeccionado por meio dessa tecnologia, seguido da instalação de implantes osseointegráveis e reabilitação protética em um defeito ósseo na mandíbula. Paciente masculino, 22 anos, compareceu à clínica por avulsão dos elementos 32, 31, 41 e 42 com significativa perda óssea vertical de rebordo alveolar. Devido à extensa perda óssea, realizou-se enxerto em bloco prototipado impresso. O escaneamento intraoral e os arquivos de imagem gerados foram enviados ao centro de planejamento virtual. Primeiramente, foi realizada a cirurgia para instalação do enxerto em bloco. Após o período de cicatrização, foi realizada cirurgia para instalação de dois implantes osseointegráveis. Esperado o período de três meses a partir da instalação dos implantes, foi realizada a confecção de próteses provisórias fixas sobre implantes a fim de realizar o condicionamento dos tecidos moles peri-implantares e o carregamento progressivo dos implantes. O aumento do rebordo alveolar através do uso de enxerto em bloco impresso personalizado apresentou-se como uma técnica com inúmeras vantagens, por não necessitar de sítio doador, reduzir tempo cirúrgico e apresentar perfeita adaptação do bloco ao defeito ósseo, resultando em menor morbidade pós-operatória. Essa técnica é uma indicação para casos de defeitos ósseos severos, visando a otimizar o resultado e a propiciar menor desconforto ao paciente.

The use of the technology CAD/CAM (computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing) and 3D (three dimensional) to alveolar reconstructions in implant dentistry allows detailed preoperative planning, the design of the desired grafting result, and the virtual evaluation of the result in relation to the prosthetic reconstruction. This paper aims to details the synthetic bone graft made through this technology, followed by the installation of osseointegrated implants and prosthetic rehabilitation in a bone imperfection in the jaw. A 22-year-old man attended the clinic due to a tooth avulsion of the four lower incisors with significant vertical bone loss of alveolar ridge. Because of the extensive bone loss, it was made a prototyped printed block graft. The intraoral scan and the generated image files were sent to the virtual planning center. First, it was necessary a surgery to install the block graft. After the healing process, it was made a surgery to put two osseointegrated implants. Three months later, temporary fixed prostheses on implants were made to conditioning the peri-implant soft tissues and the progressive loading of the implants. The increase of the alveolar ridge using personalized printed block graft was presented as a technique with numerous advantages, since it does not require a donor site, reduces the surgical time and presents perfect adaptation of the block to the bone imperfection, resulting in a less postoperative morbidity. This technique is indicated to cases of severe bone imperfections, aims to optimize results, and provide less discomfort to the patient.

Sex Determination Using Direct Photography Technique: a Mobile-phone Camera: A Digital Approach for Lip Prints Analysis in Malaysian Malay Population (Klang Valley) (Penentuan Jantina Menggunakan Teknik Fotografi Terus: Kamera telefon bimbit: Pendekatan Digital untuk Analisis Cetakan Bibir dalam Penduduk Melayu Malaysia (Lembah Klang) / Jurnal Sains Kesihatan Malaysia

@#Cheiloscopy may not be as well-known as other techniques of identification, such as fingerprint or DNA analysis, but it has its own impact in the appropriate circumstances. Cheiloscopy has been recognized as an important tool for human identification. A manual approach of studying lip prints was utilised by many researchers (magnifying glasses). Nonetheless, the current study relied solely on a mobile phone camera to visually capture lip prints for sex determination. 377 samples of lip prints were analysed with Adobe Photoshop software and classified into six different types of lip print patterns, according to Suzuki and Tsuchihashi classifications. Lip prints were divided into six sections including upper left, upper middle, upper right, lower left, lower middle and lower right. Pearson's Chi-square test revealed significant differences between male and female lip prints (p < 0.05) among the Malaysian Malay population of the Klang Valley, with Type V (irregular pattern) lip prints being the most prevalent. In comparison to magnifying glasses, our studies proved the ability to record and examine lip prints utilising a digital approach.

Distribution and Association of Lip Print Pattern, Finger Print Pattern and ABO Blood Groups in Relation to Gender and Family Among South Indian Population

Background: Positive identification of living/ deceased using distinct traits is a cornerstone of forensic science. According to Locard’s principle “When two objects come into contact, there is always transfer of material from one to another”. The finger prints, lip prints and blood remains are the evidence for forensic identification. Aim: To study the frequency, distribution and association of ABO blood groups, finger print pattern, lip print pattern among gender and also the inherent nature of patterns among family members. Materials and Methods: A total of 200 Subjects (100 males, 100 females) within the age range of 17- 30 years and 20 families were randomly selected and aggregated as groups. Lip prints and finger prints were collected using dusting technique with fine carbon powder. ABO blood group was determined by slide agglutination method. Results: Ulnar loop - Males - Vertical, Radial loop - Males - Branching, Whorl - Females - Branching, Arch - Males - Intersecting; Females - Vertical. O positive, B positive - Loop - Branching, A positive - Loop - Vertical and Intersecting, AB positive - Whorl - Branching and Intersecting. Among 20 families, 14 families showed 100 percent pattern resemblance. High percentage of similar pattern was observed between father to daughter (70%) in finger prints and mother to son in lip prints (71%). Conclusion: Correlating the uniqueness of these physical evidence helps in personal identification as it can narrow the search & to substantiate the facts where there is little evidence

Reading digital- versus print-easy texts: a study with university students who prefer digital sources

The transition from on-paper to on-screen reading seems to make it necessary to raise some considerations, as a greater attentional efort has been claimed for print texts than digital ones. Not surprisingly, most university students prefer this digital medium. This research aims to examine reading times by contextualizing this phenomenon into two processes: namely, word recognition and reading comprehension task on paper and on screen. Thus, two diferent tasks­counterbalanced into digital and print mediums­were carried out per each participant with a preference for a digital medium: a reading comprehension task (RCT) and a lexical decision task (LDT) after reading a specifc story. Participants were slower reading print texts and no statistically signifcant diferences were found in RCT accuracy. This result suggests that the task required more cognitive resources under the print medium for those with a worse comprehension performance in reading, and a more conservative pattern in digital RCT for those with a better performance.

Lip prints permanency, finger print as well as the number of easily observable and measurable characteristics have been one of the most suitable parameters for studying personal identification. The study, aimed at determining the relationship between lip and finger prints with relation to sex among Ebira Ethnic Group of Nigeria Four hundred and. ten subjects (205 males and 205 females) aged between 18-65 years, participated in the study. Fischer's formula or infinite population was used to calculate the optimal sample size. Lip prints of the participants were collected using lip gloss and microscopic slides pressed gently on the lips, ink powder is slightly blown on the slides to show the prints.A HP G3110 Scanjet Scanner (9000 x 4800 dpi resolution) which is a classical type of scanner was used to determine digital patterns of the fingers. SPSS version 20.0 was used in analysing the data. Statistical significance was put into consideration using one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) when (P = 0.05 or P ? 0.05). The predominant lip print pattern of the upper and lower lip of both sexes distributed as Type II and Type IV which are sexually dimorphic, on both hands the most prominent finger print pattern was the loop for both female and males which shows no significant sex difference. The association between lip and finger prints was significant. This is very important in personal identification in forensics.

Lip print: a humanitarian forensic action / Huella labial: una acción forense humanitaria

ABSTRACT Introduction: forensic science involves diverse scientific disciplines that apply their particular expertise to the legal and judicial system. However, in the last decades this science has been linked to humanitarian actions and human rights proceedings. Forensic dentistry plays a vital role in personal identification. The lip print analysis is a relatively a simple procedure used in this discipline. It consists of patterns evaluation of cracks in the elevations and depressions on the labial mucosa. The aim of this study was to determine the lip print patterns of a southern Colombian population in order to add evidence of preconditions for forensic issues as part of a humanitarian forensic action. Methods: a total of 384 participants ≥ 35 years old were included in this study. The lip prints were analyzed through Suzuki and Tsuchihashi's classification in order to identify the predominant lip prints in males and females. Descriptive analysis was used to determine the sample characteristics and a χ2 test was performed to analyze independence according to sex variable for these categorical data. Results: the analyses showed that Type I and I' together were the most commonly lip prints seen in this sample, followed by Type II. There were not statistical differences between males and females. Conclusions: the evaluation of lip prints is a cost-effective method, and it could be an alternative in developing countries, especially in those that address massive violations of human rights.

OBJECTIVE：To stud y the effects of “green removing ”processing technology of fresh fruit of Schisandra chinensis after harvested on the quality of medicinal material ，and to provide new ideas for the scientific and rational processing of Chinese medicinal material. METHODS ：Fifteen fresh fruits of S. chinensis were used as samples ，with 3 samples in each group. The sample were processed preliminarily by 5 methods，such as drying at 50 ℃，drying in the sun ，drying at 50 ℃ after“green removing”processing with microwave ，drying at 50 ℃ after“green removing ”processing with blanching ，drying at 50 ℃ after “green removing ”processing with steaming. HPLC fingerprints of 15 batches of dried S. chinensis products were established and similarity evaluation was conducted according to Similarity Evaluation System of TCM Chromatographic Fingerprints （2012 edition）. Cluster analysis was used to evaluate the similarity of dried S. chinensis products with different processing methods. At the same time ，HPLC method was adopted to determine the content changes of seven lignans in dried products ，such as schisandrol A ， schisandrol B ，schisantherin A ，schisantherin B ，schizandrin A ，schisandrin B and schisandrin C. RESULTS ：A total of 7 common peaks were obtained in the fingerprints of 15 batches of dried S. chinensis products. Except that the similarity between the chromatograms of dried samples in the sun and the control fingerprint was relatively low ，the similarities of chromatograms of dried products by other processing methods were greater than 0.900. Cluster analysis showed that 6 samples dried at 50 ℃ after“green removing”processing with microwave and dried at 50 ℃ after“green removing ”processing with blanching were grouped into the first category ；3 samples dried at 50 ℃ after“green removing”processing with steaming were grouped into the second category ；6 samples dried at 50 ℃ and dried in sun were grouped into the third category. The content determination results showed that there was no significant difference in the total content of seven lignans in the samples dried at 50 ℃ and dried in the sun （P＞0.05）. The total contents of seven lignans in the samples dried at 50 ℃ after“green moving ” processing with microwave ，blanching and steaming were significantly higher than those dried at 50 ℃ and dried in sun （P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS：The quality of S. chinensis samples dried after “green moving ”processing with microwave and blanching is better than those directly dried in sun and dried in oven.

Digital Approach for Lip Prints Analysis in Malaysian Malay population (Klang Valley): Scanning Technique (Analisis Cap Bibir Populasi Melayu di Lembah Klang secara Digital: Teknik Imbasan) / Jurnal Sains Kesihatan Malaysia

@#Lip print is useful in forensic investigations for individual identification. The present study aimed to discriminate sex based on lip print patterns in Malaysian Malay population in Klang Valley using a scanning technique. Lip prints of 360 subjects (180 males and 180 females) were taken using the lipstick-cellophane tape technique, pasted onto A4 papers. These papers were then scanned using Brother DCP-J100 printer (300dpi resolution). The images were analysed using a software based on Suzuki and Tsuchihashi’s classification. The lip print images were divided into six sections which are upper left, upper middle, upper right, lower right, lower middle and lower left. The Pearson chi-square test showed that there are significant differences (p < 0.05) between sexes in each section except for the upper middle section. In males, type V (irregular pattern) was the dominant pattern for upper left, upper right, lower right and lower left sections (ranging from 71.1% to 86.7%) while type IV (reticular pattern) was dominant at upper and middle sections (ranging from 57.2% to 66.1%). Type IV (48.3%) was dominant in upper middle section for female, while for the rest of the sections, type V was the dominant lip print pattern (ranging from 40% to 82.8%). These results showed that sex differentiation between males and females in Malaysian Malay population, Klang Valley can be suggested to be used for identification in forensic investigation.

Evaluación comparativa del pie plano en preescolares / Comparative assessment of flatfoot in preschool children

Resumen Introducción: El aumento o la reducción del arco longitudinal medial (ALM) puede afectar funciones esenciales en la biomecánica del pie, con repercusiones en la salud a largo plazo. El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar la altura del ALM en niños de 3 a 6 años, a través de cinco métodos de análisis de huella para el diagnóstico de pie plano. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional transversal con 367 niños de 3 a 6 años en un municipio del Estado de México. Se llevó a cabo una evaluación postural completa, plantoscopía por medio de la clasificación de Viladot y análisis de la huella en pedigrafía, calculando la altura del ALM mediante el ángulo de Clarke (AC), el índice de Staheli (IS), el índice de Chippaux-Smirak (ICS) y el ángulo gamma (Ag). Resultados: La prevalencia de pie plano utilizando el podoscopio fue del 57.7%. Mediante los ángulos y los índices, la prevalencia fue del 86.9% por IS, del 83.3% por ICS, del 95.9% por AC y del 22.3% por Ag. El Ag fue menos sensible para la detección de pie plano en comparación con el ICS, el IS y el AC. Conclusiones: De acuerdo con los resultados del presente estudio, se propone utilizar métodos de análisis de huella para el diagnóstico de pie plano, además de la valoración clásica con el podoscopio. Se recomienda incluir el diagnóstico y la vigilancia del pie plano en la consulta del niño sano, ya que desde edades tempranas puede detectarse la tendencia en la arquitectura podálica.

Abstract Background: The increase or reduction of the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) can affect essential functions in the foot biomechanics with long-term health consequences. The aim of the present study was to determine the height of the MLA in children from 3 to 6 years of age through five methods of footprint analysis for the diagnosis of flat foot. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted with 367 children aged 3 to 6 years in a municipality of the State of Mexico. We conducted a complete postural evaluation, plantoscopy by Viladot classification, and footprint analysis calculating the height of the ALM using the Clarke angle (CA), the Staheli index (SI), the Chippaux-Smirak index (CSM), and the gamma angle (gA). Results: The prevalence of flat feet using the podoscope was 57.7%. Through the angles and indexes, the prevalence was 86.9% for SI, 83.3% for CSI, 95.9% for CA, and 22.3% for gA. The gA was less sensitive for flat foot detection compared to CSI, SI and CA. Conclusions: Based on the present results, we propose that footprint analysis should be used for flat foot diagnosis besides the classic evaluation by podoscope. We recommend that flat foot diagnosis and surveillance should be included on in the consultation of the healthy child, as a trend for podalic architecture can be detected from early ages.

Corpos tatuados: desejo de memória em completude / The human in Søren Kierkegaard and Viktor Frankl

Este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar vivências e significados de tatuagens a partir de narrativas de sujeitos adultos e idosos, com base em uma abordagem interdisciplinar. Questionamos: do culto ao corpo jovem, da exigência do labor do corpo adulto e da hipervigilância do corpo envelhecido, qual a significação do corpo tatuado em idades tão díspares? Realizamos uma descrição das narrativas de adultos e idosos com corpos tatuados a partir de um desenho de pesquisa qualitativa. Participaram da pesquisa 15 adultos com idades entre 22 e 67 anos em duas capitais brasileiras, Salvador e São Paulo. Entre as ideias conclusivas estão, de um lado, a tatuagem como metamorfose, liberdade e afirmação de si e, de outro, significações que ressaltam atatuagem como desejo de memória em completude, uma forma de fazer do corpo lugar de arquivo ou o próprio corpo como arquivo de memória completa.

This paper aims to present experiences and meanings of tattoos, from narratives of adult and elderly subjects, based on an interdisciplinary approach. We question: the cult of the young body, the demand of the labor of the adult body, and the hyper vigilance of the aged body, what is the meaning of the tattooed body in such disparate ages? We describe the narratives of adults and the elderly with tattooed bodies from a qualitative research design. Fifteen adults aged between 22 and 67 years participated in the research in two Brazilian capitals,Salvador and São Paulo. Among the concluding ideas are, on the one hand, the tattoo as a metamorphosis, freedom and affirmation of self and, on the other hand, meanings that emphasize the tattoo as a desire for memory in completeness, a way of making the body a place of archives, or the body itself as a full memory file.

Highly sensitive serological approaches for Pepino mosaic virus detection / 浙江大学学报（英文版）（B辑：生物医学和生物技术）

Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) causes severe disease in tomato and other Solanaceous crops around globe. To effectively study and manage this viral disease, researchers need new, sensitive, and high-throughput approaches for viral detection. In this study, we purified PepMV particles from the infected Nicotiana benthamiana plants and used virions to immunize BALB/c mice to prepare hybridomas secreting anti-PepMV monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). A panel of highly specific and sensitive murine mAbs (15B2, 8H6, 23D11, 20D9, 3A6, and 8E3) could be produced through cell fusion, antibody selection, and cell cloning. Using the mAbs as the detection antibodies, we established double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA), Dot-ELISA, and Tissue print-ELISA for detecting PepMV infection in tomato plants. Resulting data on sensitivity analysis assays showed that both DAS-ELISA and Dot-ELISA can efficiently monitor the virus in PepMV-infected tissue crude extracts when diluted at 1:1310720 and 1:20480 (weight/volume ratio (w/v), g/mL), respectively. Among the three methods developed, the Tissue print-ELISA was found to be the most practical detection technique. Survey results from field samples by the established serological approaches were verified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and DNA sequencing, demonstrating all three serological methods are reliable and effective for monitoring PepMV. Anti-PepMV mAbs and the newly developed DAS-ELISA, Dot-ELISA, and Tissue print-ELISA can benefit PepMV detection and field epidemiological study, and management of this viral disease, which is already widespread in tomato plants in Yunnan Province of China.

Objective@#To establish the functional occlusal morphology of fixed prostheses by using functional generated path (FGP) technology on a three-dimensional-printed diagnostic crown in order to decrease the chance of occlusal adjustment during try-in procedure of the complete crown, and to avoid the risk of occlusal interference after cementation of prosthesis.@*Methods@#A double-blind clinical trial was performed. Ten subjects (4 males, 6 females) who needed a first molar complete crown restoration were enrolled in Department of Prosthodontics, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from July 2018 to December 2018. The working models with the abutment teeth of the ten participants were scanned to obtain the digital models, then the occlusal surfaces of crown were formed by either FGP technology on a three-dimensional (3D) printed diagnostic crown and then were scanned directly for computer aided design and computer aided manufacture (CAD/CAM) crown fabrication as experiment group, or conventional technology based on database as control group. Then zirconia crowns were fabricated for two groups. During crown try-in of the two groups, preferred crowns of subjects were recorded, the occlusal contact criteria including the occlusal contact area (mm2), the heights of occlusal high spot (mm) before and after the adjustment of crowns were digitally analyzed, and the amount of adjustment (mm and mm3) were calculated on digital models by using a reverse engineering software (Giomagic Sudio & Quality). Differences of values were compared statistically with paired t-test (α=0.05).@*Results@#The amount for occlusal adjustment for crowns in the experiment group [(7.320±4.238) mm3] was statistically less than that in the control group [(20.178±9.650) mm3] (P<0.05), the occlusal contact area of experiment group [(11.430±4.102) mm2] was statistically bigger than that of the control group [(4.808±3.223) mm2] (P<0.05), the heights of occlusal high spots for crowns in the experiment group was (0.043±0.019) mm while it was (0.594±0.201) mm in the control group with statistically significant differences (P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#This method could lead to a crown with less adjustment of occlusion, less occlusal high spot and less risk of occlusal interferences.

Acidente de trabalho ampliado: o rompimento da barragem de Fundão nos jornais impressos do Espírito Santo / Major work accident: the collapse of the Fundão dam in the newspapers of Espírito Santo, Brazil

Resumo Introdução: o rompimento da barragem de Fundão (RBF), ocorrido em Minas Gerais, no ano de 2015, se caracteriza como acidente de trabalho ampliado (ATA). Objetivo: elaborar um protocolo e verificar sua aplicabilidade para coleta, classificação e análise de notícias relacionadas a ATA em jornais impressos. Método: estudo descritivo com abordagem qualitativa e quantitativa. A proposta do protocolo foi baseada em informações de literatura científica e em protocolos de análise de notícias utilizados por observatórios de mídia em Saúde. A sua validação foi realizada por meio da sua aplicação na análise da cobertura do RBF efetuada pelos dois principais jornais do Espírito Santo. Resultados: verificou-se ampla cobertura pela mídia, mas com narrativa superficial. O desastre foi naturalizado como ocasionado por intempéries, o sofrimento da população é enfatizado pela diminuição da renda, sendo os aspectos de saúde pouco abordados. Os acidentes e doenças do trabalho não foram retratados como um grave problema de Saúde Pública. Foi constatado que os meios de comunicação destacam mais a cobertura das fases de respostas e reconstrução do que as causas do ATA. Conclusão: o protocolo possibilitou classificar e analisar a abordagem dos jornais, com potencial para ser aplicado em outros casos de ATA de diferentes magnitudes.

Abstract Introduction: the Fundão Dam failure (FDF), which occurred in Minas Gerais, Brazil, in 2015, is characterized as a major work accident (MWA). Objective: to develop a protocol and verify its applicability for collecting, classifying and analysing news related to MWA in print newspapers. Method: descriptive study with a qualitative and quantitative approach. The protocol proposal was based on information from scientific literature and on protocols used by observatories on health media. Its validation was analyzed by the investigation of the FDF coverage carried out by the two main newspapers of the Espírito Santo State, in Brazil. Results: the accident was widely covered by the media, however, the narratives were superficial. Nature (inclement weather) was commonly mentioned as the main cause of the disaster, the suffering of the population is emphasized by the decrease in income, with health aspects scarcely addressed. Accidents and occupational diseases were not portrayed as a serious public health problem. We found that the media highlighted the coverage of the response and reconstruction phases instead of the real cause of the MWA. Conclusion: the protocol enabled us to classify and analyze the newspapers approach, and showed potentiality to be applied in other MWA cases of different magnitudes.

Lip Print Analysis in Malaysian Chinese Population (Klang Valley): Lipstick-Cellophane Tape Technique (Analisis Cap Bibir Populasi Cina Malaysia di Lembah Klang: Teknik Gincu-Pita Selofan) / Jurnal Sains Kesihatan Malaysia

@#Cheiloscopy is recognized as a tool for personal identification due to its strength in criminalistics. In this study, the lip print of Malaysian Chinese population in Klang Valley was used for gender determination using lipstick-cellophane technique. 412 subjects (203 males and 209 females) were selected conveniently. Lipstick was first applied on the lips and the lip print was lifted using cellophane tape prior to pasting them onto a plain A4 paper and analysis using magnifying glass. Six topography areas of lip prints were classified using Suzuki and Tsuchihashi’s classification, including upper left, upper middle, upper right, lower right, lower middle and lower left. Chi-square test showed that all lip sections were significantly different from each other (p < 0.05). Type II was the dominant pattern in four lip sections for both genders: upper left (male 81.3%, female 57.4%), upper right (male 71.9%, female 42.9%), lower left (male 98.0%, female 90.0%) and lower right (male 96.1%, female 86.1%). Type IV was the dominant pattern for both middle part of the lips; upper middle (male 56.2%, female 50.7%) and lower middle (male 62.6%, female 50.2%). The results showed that gender can be differentiated based on lip print patterns. This finding suggested that cheiloscopy could be used in aiding personal identification for forensic investigation.

Research progress in mechanical strength enhancement methods of jaw tissue engineering scaffolds / 口腔疾病防治

@#Bone tissue engineering, as an emerging method for the treatment of jaw defects caused by oral and maxillofacial trauma, inflammation, tumors and other diseases, has been a research hotspot due to its advantages of wide sources of materials, low risk of immune rejection and personalized treatment. However, due to functional activities such as chewing and expression in the oral and maxillofacial regions, the mechanical strength of scaffolds is highly required. A single component of scaffolds can not fully meet the requirements of oral and maxillofacial bone defect repair. In this paper, the methods of strengthening the mechanical strength of jaw bone tissue engineering scaffolds are summarized by summarizing the research on strengthening the mechanical strength of scaffolds in recent years. A review of the literature showed that, composite modification, crosslinking, coating, bionic scaffolding and other new processing methods have been used to enhance the mechanical strength of scaffolds. Among these studies, research on compound modification occurred the earliest. Although this process is simple, other substances have been introduced to increase the number of degradation products, and the compounding ratio needs to be adjusted. The crosslinking method has the risk of cytotoxicity due to the use of crosslinking agents; the coating method does not change the original structure and only changes the surface modification; however, it can be better utilized if the problem of stress concentration between interfaces is solved. Biomimetic scaffolds and microregulatory scaffolds are emerging technologies in recent years that can improve the internal molecular arrangement of materials, thus enhancing mechanical strength. Therefore, on the basis of perfecting the traditional method, future research will focus on new nanoscale materials, bionic scaffolds and new methods for the precise control of scaffold microstructure.

The aim of this study was to identify and classify the grooves of lip prints obtained, and establish a relationship between the types of labial grooves present on the prints and the phenotype of skin color and gender. The sample consisted of 60 graduate students, of both sexes. For determination and classification of lip grooves (Types I, I', II, III, IV and V), individual lip printing taken from lipsticks on white cardboard were used. The most common labial groove found, according to the classification proposed by Suzuky and Tsuchihaschi (1970), was type I, followed by Type II and Type I'. In females and in males, Type I and II were the dominant patterns. The grooves of the type II and I' were prevalent in melanoderm, in faioderm and in Caucasian the predominants patterns were types I and II. It can be concluded that lip print analysis has the potential for the recognition of the gender of an individual, but requires a detailed study to correctly perform the cheilogram... (AU)

Study of Fingerprint Patterns among Young Adults and its Relation with Their Gender & Blood Groups

Fingerprint patterns are genotypically determined and remain unchanged from birth till death so they are used as effective means of establishing identity of an individual & study of finger prints as method of identification is known as Dactylography or Dactyloscopy. Aim- was to study fingerprint patterns among young adults & its relation with their gender & blood groups. Methods: Study includes 100 young adults of both genders selected randomly.Fingerprints were taken by pressing fingertips of subjects on stamp pad & then transferring the impressions on paper. Subjects were instructed to mention their Blood group, Age & sex on the same paper. Results: Subjects were having 69%,25%,6% of Loops, Whorls & Arches respectively.Males had 68%,26%,6% & females had 69%,24%,7% of Loops,Whorls & Arches respectively.Arches were absent in Rh -ve blood group & were maximum in blood group B+ i-e 50.8% followed by blood groups O+ve,AB+ve & A+ve with 34.4%, 13.1% & 1.7% respectively.Whorls were absent in B-ve Subjects & were maximum in B+vesubjects with 34.8% followed by O+ve, A+ve,AB+ve,O-ve,AB-ve with 28%,22.4%,10.8%, 2.4%,1.6% respectively.Loops were maximum in B+ve i-e 36.6% followed by A+ve,O+ve,AB+ve,O-ve,B-ve, AB-ve with 26.6%,24.5%,6.5%,3.5%, 1.4%,0.9% respectively. Conclusion: Loops are the most common & arches are the least common fingerprint pattern found in the population & Rh- blood groups lack Arches. whorls were absent in B-ve blood group & loops were minimum in AB-ve blood group.Whorls, loops & Arches all types were maximum in B+ve blood group.

Nursing care of lower cervical spine fracture treated with 3D print microporous titanium artificial vertebral body / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective@#To summarize the perioperative nursing measures and effects of 3D printed artificial cervical vertebrae for lower cervical spine fractures.@*Methods@#Treatment of 15 cases of lower cervical spine fracture with 3D printed artificial cervical vertebrae. Preoperative cervical spine fixation to prevent spinal cord injury, strict observation of clinical symptoms, assist the doctor to perform CT three-dimensional reconstruction of the cervical spine, and calculate the physiological height of the injured vertebrae; maintain the surgical position fixed during surgery, carefully prepare the supporting equipment, familiar with the surgical related steps, accurate delivery of all types of surgical instruments to assist with intraoperative fluoroscopy. Postoperative focus on the neck to see if there is swelling, effectively maintain the airway patency, observe changes in spinal nerve function, develop a personalized functional exercise program to promote rehabilitation, and actively prevent complications.@*Results@#The JOA score increased from (9.23±1.62) points before surgery to (14.09±1.35) points after surgery, and the improvement rate was 62.55%. There were no complications such as difficulty swallowing, hoarseness, and difficulty breathing.@*Conclusions@#Through targeted perioperative care, surgical complications can be reduced and the quality of life of patients improved.
