Purpose and Background: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a set of symptoms that appear after a severe traumatic stress. Children and adolescents experience an increase in potentially traumatic experiences. Many children subsequently develop mental health problems. Method: A broad search was conducted in scientific databases and search engines such as Science Direct, PubMed, Cochrane, Medline, SID, Scopus, CINAHL, OVID, Iran Doc, and Magiran with Using the keywords “post-traumatic stress disorder”, “non-pharmacological coping strategies”, “children” alone or in combination with each other and their English equivalent was done. Articles that were published between 2000 and 2023 and were more related to the main focus of the research topic were selected.After a comprehensive review, nine studies that met the purpose of this study were selected. Findings: The most important non-pharmacological treatment strategies in children included relaxation and hypnosis, acupuncture, neurofeedback, saikokeishikankyoto (a herbal preparation) and exercise (yoga). Conclusion: Therefore, the use of non-pharmacological methods as one of the effective methods in the treatment of these children’s disorders can improve the quality of life of the family of these patients and the patient himself, as a result, administrators should encourage the patients’ families by using non-pharmacological methods.

Responsible for the sensory stimuli of the viscerocranium, the 5th pair of cranial nerves, called the trigeminal nerve due to its 3 branches, is a mixed-function nerve. The diagnosis of Trigeminal Neuralgia is directly related to the symptoms reported by the patient during the anamnesis. The right treatment depends on the correct diagnosis. The exact etiology of TN is still unknown. It affects around 4 to 13 individuals per 100,000 and although it seems to be a neuropathy with a low incidence, it is the most common among facial pain syndromes. A retrospective cross-sectional observational study was carried out. We used data on laser therapy treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia, received and treated at the Laser Clinic of the Faculty of Dentistry of the Federal University of Bahia, from 2003 to 2022. A total of 119 patients with a diagnosis of Trigeminal Neuralgia were treated, most of them with unilateral pain (89%). After diagnosis, the initial irradiation protocol was determined individually. The laser frequency applied was 808 nm (infrared) due to its greater ability to penetrate and activate chromophores in nerve and bone structures. The amount of energy applied varies from case to case, usually starting with 2 or 3 J per point, which is indicated for cases of regeneration and analgesia. The final status of the treatment is based on the patient’s score according to the visual analog scale, where 10 is the highest pain threshold and 0 is no pain. 65% of the patients related no pain or ate at least under 3 grades before the first degree Laser phototherapy is an effective means of recovery, reducing pain symptoms and improving the quality of life of patients with Trigeminal Neuralgia, and the infrared wave spectrum is the most suitable for this treatment.

IL-17 is a member of the innate immune system, it is preferentially expressed by Th2 cells, and is highly recognized in psoriasis skin lesions. The current study aims investigate the role of Interleukin-17 (IL-17) in development and severity of psoriasis (PsO). Eighty persons from both genders are included in the study, 40 of them were patients and the same number were as control. Blood samples were taken from both groups and ELISA ready kit was used to estimate the sera levels of IL-17. The current findings pointed to a significant increase (p<0.05) in the of serum IL-17 in the patients’ group in comparison with the control group (20.97 ± 12.93 vs 20.97 ± 12.93 respectively). The results also showed that there is a highly significant increase in mean levels of IL-17 (20.3 pg/ml) in patients with moderate PsO and (20.8 pg/ml) for patients with severe PsO, compared to those with mild PSO. Conclusion: It was concluded that the high levels of IL-17 in psoriasis, and it seem that this interleukin may contribute to the severity of the disease. No gender differences were seen regarding the level of IL-17.

Objective: To analyze by means of a 3D finite element model the effect of anchoring dental implants in one or two cortical. Materials and Methods: An in vitro experimental investigation was performed using Finite Elements Analysis. Six conical implants of three different designs and different lengths were designed and placed in a 3D model of the anterior maxilla with type III bone, anchoring a first group of implants only in the occlusal cortical of the bone, while in a second group the apex of the implants was anchored in the cortex of the nasal passages too, so they become monocortical or bicortical anchored. Micromovements of the implants in the bone were generated by simulating a 60-degree inclined force applied at the abutment level with 170 Ncm and 700 Ncm. Amount of micromovements were measured. Results: Micromovements obtained when the implants were monocortical anchorage and subjected to forces of 170 Ncm, were similar for all the implants (average 27.4um). Whereas with forces of 700 Ncm, the micro-movements increased in all cases. (average 113.49 µm.) Micromovements decreased in all implants when bicortical anchorage was used, both when applying 170Ncm forces (average 8.58 µm) or applying 700Ncm forces (average 34.71µm). In relation to length, short implants showed less micromotion. Conclusion: According to the results obtained, bicortical anchoring reduces the micromotion of conical implants especially when they are subjected to parafunctional forces and in implants of greater length, ensuring levels of micromotion more compatible with osseointegration, at least in a three-dimensional simulation through FEA.

Hypertension represents one of the most prevalent complications encountered during pregnancy, significantly contributing to both maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. The placenta, acting as a crucial feto-maternal organ, plays a pivotal role in sustaining pregnancy and fostering the healthy development of the fetus. Notably, the weight of the placenta holds functional importance, as it correlates with the villous surface area and fetal metabolism. Motivated by this context, the present study endeavors to examine the morphological and histological alterations in the placenta associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and to assess their correlation with maternal and fetal outcomes. Methods: A prospective investigation encompassing 120 cases was conducted, comprising 60 normotensive mothers (Group A) and 60 mothers with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (Group B). Placental specimens obtained from these participants were subjected to morphological and histological analyses, with subsequent correlation with maternal and fetal outcomes. Results: Our findings revealed a notable reduction in placental weight and dimensions within Group B compared to Group A. Histopathological examination unveiled a significant increase in the incidence of syncytial knots, fibrinoid necrosis, hyalinization, and calcification in placentas from the hypertensive group, directly correlating with neonatal complications. Furthermore, the mean neonatal birth weight was significantly higher in Group A compared to Group B. Conclusion: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy exert a substantial impact on placental morphology, leading to diminished weight and dimensions, indicative of placental insufficiency attributable to compromised utero-placental blood flow. These alterations ultimately influence neonatal weight and overall neonatal outcomes. Our study underscores the presence of distinct morphological changes in the placenta that detrimentally affect fetal growth.

Background: Gingival recession can lead to root hypersensitivity, root caries, and impaired aesthetic concerns. Modified coronally advanced tunnel (MCAT) technique, which possesses various benefits that can be used to support the success in the treatment of gingival recession. Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is used in the procedure, frequently documented indicating encouraging results in the treatment of gingival recession. The following case report is to indicate an evaluation on the treatment utilizing MCAT with ADM. Case presentation: A male of 27 year-old arrived with main complaints of aesthetic concerns and dental hypersensitivity on the upper right teeth posterior caused by Miller’s class I gingival recession. The aforementioned technique is chosen in treatment considering the rate of success to treat the defects as the impact of gingival recession. Case management: The MCAT with ADM commenced with the fabrication of composite stops at the contact points. Later local anaesthesia (lidocaine HCl 2% with epinephrine 1:100,000) was given. Intrasulcular incision was then made and the mucoperiosteal flap was raised with tunneling knives. The tunnel was then extended over the mucogingival junction. ADM was pulled into the tunnel by means of mattress sutures. Finally the tunnel was positioned coronally to the CEJ by means of suspended sutures placed around the contact points. Conclusion: The use of MCAT technique with ADM (Mucoderm) is able to show satisfying outcome with the improvement of root coverage in the case of Miller’s class I gingival recession.

Introduction: A herniated disc occurs when the disc that acts as a cushion between the vertebrae of the spine shifts and presses on nearby nerves. The L4-L5 region refers to the lumbar vertebrae located in the lower back. A herniated disc in this region can cause pain, tingling, muscle weakness and even the inability to perform daily tasks. Evidence comparing the effectiveness of surgical and conservative treatment for symptomatic lumbar disc herniation is controversial. Objectives: The aim of this study is to discuss, through a literature review, the pros and cons of conservative and surgical treatment for herniated discs, as well as their risks and benefits according to current medical advances. Results and Discussion: Compared to conservative therapy, surgical treatment provided faster relief of low back pain symptoms in patients with lumbar disc herniation, but showed no benefits over conservative treatment in medium and long-term follow-up. Final considerations: Surgical treatment may therefore be attractive for patients with debilitating pain symptoms who are looking for rapid relief or who have not achieved satisfactory improvement with conservative treatment.

The L4-L5 region refers to the lumbar vertebrae located in the lower back. A herniated disc in this region can cause pain, tingling, muscle weakness and even the inability to perform daily tasks. Evidence comparing the effectiveness of surgical and conservative treatment for symptomatic lumbar disc herniation is controversial. Objectives: The aim of this study is to discuss, through a literature review, the pros and cons of conservative and surgical treatment for herniated discs, as well as their risks and benefits according to current medical advances. Results and Discussion: Compared to conservative therapy, surgical treatment provided faster relief of low back pain symptoms in patients with lumbar disc herniation, but showed no benefits over conservative treatment in medium and long-term follow-up. Final considerations: Surgical treatment may therefore be attractive for patients with debilitating pain symptoms who are looking for rapid relief or who have not achieved satisfactory improvement with conservative treatment.","PeriodicalId":504355,"journal":{"name":"International Journal Of Health & Medical Research","volume":"61 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140419702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Introduction: Viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHF) refer to a group of diseases caused by different viral families. Rodents represent 42% of the world’s mammalian biodiversity and are reservoir hosts for a wide range of disease agents. Hantaviruses are harbored in numerous mammalian reservoirs, including rodents. To prevent and mitigate possible outbreaks of zoonotic diseases, it is necessary to know the geographic distribution, intra-specific relationships, diversity and identity of the incriminated species. Objectives: To describe the ecology, epidemiology, epizootiology and natural history of hemorrhagic infections caused by hantavirus serotypes and their respective reservoirs. Methodology: Bibliographical consultations and online articles were carried out in the databases relating the highlighted subjects. Results: Rodents from the subfamilies Murinae, Arvicolinae, Neotominae and Sigmodontinae are the main reservoirs of hantavirus disease. Orthohantaviruses are the most studied group, highlighting the Hantaan, Seoul, Puumala and Dobrava serotypes. Rodents of the genus Oligoryzomys, include several species and have parasite-host relationships reported for the genus Hantavirus. Other species of mammals, such as bats, squirrels and opossums, have already been described as possible reservoirs. Conclusion: Hantavirus infections occur as a result of close interactions between humans and animals. One Health approaches highlight concerns through interdisciplinary collaboration and development of public health interventions when animals become vectors of infections, with the aim of achieving global results by recognizing the interconnection between wildlife, humans and the environment.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is regarded as one of the leading causes of death globally. It remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in Vietnam. This study aims to identify hotspots of TB using boxplot and Getis-Ord’s G_i^* statistic-based hotspot analysis. Data used and Methods: A total of 101,438 TB cases in 2020 collected from 63 provinces/cities in Vietnam was used in study. Boxplot is first used to study distribution of TB cases. Getis-Ord’s G_i^* statistic was then employed to identify hotspots of TB cases. Finally, results and main findings will be discussed and concluded. Results: It was found that a total of 05 hotspots and 04 coldspots of TB cases were detected throughout Vietnam. Five hotspots were detected in 05 provinces in the northeastern region including Ha Nam, Nam Dinh, Hai Phong, Hai Duong, and Hung Yen. Whereas, four coldspots were mainly concentrated in 03 provinces in the northwest region (Cao Bang, Tuyen Quang and Son La), and Dak Lak in the central south region. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the combination of boxplot and Getis-Ord’s G_i^* statistic can help to effectively detect hotspots of TB cases. Findings in this study provide an insight into how to used spatial statistics and spatial analysis in the study of TB distribution.
