Abstract

Adolescence is a period associated with increased risk behaviors such as smoking, sex, fighting, the use ofsharp weapons and so on. These conditions coincide with changes in social and school environment. Thepurpose of this study is to explain how health risk behaviors are to adolescents. The research design usedin this study was analytic with a cross sectional approach. The population was all high school/vocationalschool adolescents with a total of 29,963 boys and girls, with a sample size of 395 using cluster samplingtechnique. The independent variable of the study is risk behavior and the dependent variables of the studyare smoking, bullying, use of sharp weapons, driving, drug consumption, sex, health consultation, nutritionalfulfillment, suicide attempt, alcohol consumption, fighting and physical activity. Data collection was carriedout using a questionnaire adopted from YRBSS (Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System) which wastranslated into Indonesian. The collected data was tabulated and analyzed using Logistic Regression. Theresults showed that all health behavior including risk behaviors, although based on statistical test resultsthe behavior of alcohol and drug consumption was not significant because (p value) was 0.000>0.005.Smoking behavior had a regression coefficient of 6,904 with a significance level (p value) of 0.000<0.005and an OR (odds ratio) of 996,365, which means that adolescents have 996 times the chance to smoke. Allvariables are included in health risk behaviors; however, smoking is the riskiest health behavior carried outby adolescents

Abstract

Cleft lip and cleft palate (CL/P) is a cleft lip deformity indicated by an opening or an uncommon cleft inthe lip or roof of the mouth (palate). The differences in ethnicity, gender, and the correlation with geneticfactors influence the prevalence of Non-syndromic CL/P. This study was conducted through a literaturereview on genes that were allegedly associated with Non-syndromic CL/P. Genetics play a role, to a greateror lesser extent, in all diseases. Besides, palatogenesis involves many diverse genes in a complex process.In this case, oral cleft phenotypes develop when this process is disrupted in some manner because of genedysfunction. Various genetic approaches, including genome-wide and candidate gene association studiesas well as linkage analysis, have been undertaken to identify etiologic factors, but results have often beeninconclusive or contradictory. Therefore, it concludes that the genetic basis of CL/P is still controversialbecause of the genetic complexity of clefting

Abstract

Domestic violence is an age-old social evil which remains hidden from the eyes of the society for long.The incidence of domestic violence (DV) is at epidemic proportions of violence, abuse and neglect of anyindividual have a significant impact on the social system. Majority of the studies report violent and abusiveinjuries involve the head and neck region but many times dentists fail to report abuse. The various reasonscould include loss of patients, economic loss and fear of dealing caregivers or of getting involved. Aboveall these, the majorly lack of sufficient knowledge about identification uncertainty of diagnosis and agencieswhere to report. The purpose of this paper is to assess the knowledge regarding identification of domesticviolence, abuse and neglect and reporting agencies of maltreatment.Aim & Objective: The aim of the present study is to assess knowledge and create awareness regardingidentification of domestic violence, abuse and neglect and reporting agencies of maltreatment among dentistsof Mysuru city of India.Method: A self-administered, structured questionnaire written in English given to the dentists who givetheir consent.Results: 91.7% (n=100) of the participants had heard about Domestic Violence, neglect and abuse and73%(n=67) had come across victims of Domestic violence, neglect and abuse. Among them, 9.2% (n=10)had come across them frequently and 32 (29.8%) occasionally.51 respondents said that the domestic violence victims are adult females, elderly female patients (16.6%)followed by children between 12 to 15 years of age (13.7%)Conclusion: Many dentists will come across and identify the victims in their practice, but only few dentistswill make an attempt to report. The main reason being lack of knowledge and proper training. Thus, there is aneed for all of us to get trained in this aspect. Recognizing reporting the violence is everyone’s responsibility

Abstract

Background: The bonding of cement materials to enamel and dentin may be affected by dimensionalchanges which may be happened after water absorption of the cement when it is in water when the fillingused by the person. The aim of our research was to see how much water may be noticed inside preparedcements compared with those with other traditional cements.Method and materials: tow light-cured (1 and 2) and another two chemically-cured (4 and 5) wereprepared. Two types of cements used by the Iraqi dentists also used, first one light-cured (No.3) and the otherwas chemically-cured (No.6) . Thirty samples were produced having 4mm height and 9mm diameter. Fivesamples from each type of cement were prepared. Then we record the weight of each sample was recordedafter setting of the material before putting them in water using very. To remove water from the specimenmaterial a desiccator was used for one day. Samples were kept in water. After different immersing times of5,10,15,30, and 60 minutes, one, three, seven, ten day, and fourteen the weight of each sample was recorded.The value recorded for water absorbed was rounded to the nearest 0.1mg/cm2. Results: light-cured cementsabsorb more water than chemical-cured cements. The highest value was noticed for cement (5) then forcement number (2). The least value was noticed for cement number (3).Conclusion: cements cured by lightabsorbed more water than chemically-cured cements. Modifying cement´s powder components showed noeffect on water sorption, while liquid chemical composition showed noticable effect on water absorbedbythe tested cements

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the profile of qHBs Ag profile, and also to investigate the correlation betweenqHBs Ag and HBV DNA. Seventy samples of chronic-nai?ve hepatitis B patients in Dr. Soetomo Hospitalwere analyzed in a cross-sectional study. Patients were categorized according to the HBe Ag positive (n=30)and HBe Ag negative (n=18), also based on qHBs Ag 1000 IU/mL and qHBs Ag >1000 IU/mL. qHBs Agwas correlated with HBV DNA. qHBs Ag by CLEIA method from Sysmex, KOBE HISCL, HBV DNAwas measured by real-time Polymerase Chain method from Gene Xpert, Cepheid. 70 patients nai?ve CHBtreatment showed a median of ALT level 60.21±70.76 U/L. 30 patients showed a positive-HBeAg, 18 patientsshowed negative-HBeAg, 22 patients were not evaluated (N/A). Positive-HBeAg patients had 70% qHBsAg>2500 mg/dL and median HBV DNA 7.49×107IU/mL. Negative-HBeAg patients had 55.6% HBsAg ?1000mg/dL and median HBV DNA 9.66×102 IU/mL. qHBsAg correlated with HBV DNA (p <0.001). This datademonstrated that quantitative HBsAg was associated with a phase of HBV-infection, quantitative HBsAgshowed a moderate correlation with DNA HBV, quantitative HBsAg levels might be a predictor of initiationtherapy for CHB patients.

Abstract

Background: Infertility is an important public health problem , almost 10-30 % is due to azoospermia.Elastography is a new ultrasound modality which simply could evaluate the internal elasticity of the testis &finally give an idea about the presence or absence of sperms.Objective: To evaluate the validity of sonoelastography in predicting positive sperm retrieving in patientwith azoospermia.Patients and Methods: A cross sectional study performed in Al-Sader Teaching Hospital / fertility center& radiology department during the period from 1st September 2017 to 1st September 2018, included 98patients /196 testes) with azoospermia by B-mode U/S, Doppler study (RI) & Elastography (strain ratio) ,then biopsies obtained for all patientsResults: Only (136) testes were subjected to biopsy. Testicular volume & strain ratio were the most importantfactors which suggest that the testis will give a positive or negative sperm retrieving. Low volume + highstrain NSR (bad prognosis) while high volume + low strain PSR (good prognosis).These findings of SR were 75.7% sensitive, 93% specific, with 78% and 92% positive and negativepredictive values, respectively and an accuracy of 89%.Conclusion: Strain Elastography results have been validated and were differed significantly betweenpatients with abnormal sperms count than those without. This Technique provides a promising way to getmore accurate diagnostic results.

Abstract

In this study, an efficient pattern recognition technique is developed for Brain Image Classification (BIC) intonormal or abnormal. Wavelet transform features with supervised classification have a potential role to playin bringing Magnetic resonance Images (MRI) of the brain into practical clinical use.The developed patternrecognition technique uses Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), Dual tree M-band Wavelet Transform(DMWT), and Stationary Wavelet Transform (SWT) for feature extraction, k-Nearest Neighbour (kNN)and Naive Bayes (NB) for classification and is considered as an effective and accurate tool for brain imageanalysis for cancer classification. Also, the predominant coefficients are chosen from the combined featurespace by rank features of statistical feature selection approach. Results show that the proposed system actsas a pre-treatment predictor for BIC with an accuracy of 88.5% for kNN and 95.5% for NB classification.
