An alternative remedy approach for patients using proof otitis press with effusion as well as dysfunctional Eustachian tube: A pilot examine with fast maxillary growth.

Results The dietary TAC levels of the experimental group were higher than the control group (5.45 ± 6.15 mmol/day vs. 3.20 ± 7.27 mmol/day, P = 0.006); whereas, the ratio of serum TAC per body weight was significantly lower in obese participants (0.013 ± 0.0134 mmol/L vs. 0.017 ± 0.003 mmol/L, P less then 0.001). However, a positive relation (r = 0.339, P = 0.008) was observed between dietary TAC and serum TAC. Moreover, a positive correlation between the serum TAC levels of the individuals and the weight in both groups (r = 0.335, P = 0.046 in obese participants, and r = 0.523, P = 0.009 in control group), and the BMI in the experimental group (r = 0.384, P = 0.021). Likewise, there is an association between the diet TAC level and the diet protein ratio (r = 0.478, P = 0.018) in obese participants. Conclusıon Dietary TAC intake was significantly higher and the TAC/weight lower in the experimental group. Moreover, the relationship between diet TAC and serum TAC was significant.Objectives The objective of this study is to question the existence of a possible relationship between obesity and temporomandibular joint disorders. Subjects and Methods A total of 256 healthy subjects were included in the study. While the body mass index was used for the detection of obesity, Fonseca anamnestic index was used for the detection of temporomandibular joint disorders. The relationship between body mass index and temporomandibular joint disorders frequency was investigated. Values of P less then 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results There were 136 female (53.1%) and 120 male (46.9%) subjects. The mean age was 39.02 ± 10.62. 41.4% of the subjects were in normal weight, 32.4% were overweight and 26.1% were obese. The prevalence of temporomandibular joint disorders was 73.8%. Conclusions There was no statistically significant difference between body mass index and temporomandibular joint disorders frequency, but further larger studies will give more accurate outcomes.Background Surgical nurses work in demanding environments and play a vital role in maintaining and promoting patient safety due to the nature of their work. Hence it is important to know their attitudes toward patient safety. Aim This research aimed to evaluate the patient safety attitudes of Turkish surgical nurses. Methods and Materials This was a descriptive cross-sectional and questionnaire research. Data were collected from August 2015-January 2016 using the staff information form and the safety attitudes questionnaire (SAQ). The study population included 231 nurses who work in operating rooms, surgical intensive care, and surgical wards of four hospitals in western Turkey. Data were analyzed with frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, the Mann Whitney U test, and Kruskal Wallis tests using the SPSS 18. Results The teamwork and safety climate scores of operating room nurses were higher than the scores of surgical intensive care and ward nurses. The stress recognition scores of surgical ward nurses were the highest, followed by the scores of the operating room and surgical intensive care nurses. The perception of management scores of operating room nurses was higher than those of surgical ward nurses, and nurses ages 18-30 were higher than those of nurses ages 31-40. None of the six domains of safety culture, including job satisfaction, teamwork, safety climate, the perception of management, stress recognition, and working conditions achieved a positive mean score over 75. Conclusion This research paper provides an evaluation of the safety attitudes of surgical nurses. Findings can provide information for healthcare leaders to improve the safety culture.Background Paradoxical curvature of the middle nasal turbinate (MT) is a common anatomic variant, usually found and reported on coronal CT slices. However, less attention has been paid to the sagittal groove (SG) which is determining it. Aim The study aimed to determine paradoxical curvatures and bifidities in the sagittal groves of middle nasal turbinate. Material and Method A retrospective CBCT study on the archived files of 52 adult patients was performed. Results Different patterns of MT bifidity were found (1) unilateral bifid MTs; (2) bifid and trifid MTs and "wandering" single SGs; (3) bilateral bifid middle turbinates and double SGs, (4) bilateral false bifid appearance due to middle and superior turbinates fusion and (5) bifid concha bullosa media. Smad pathway Digital "dissections" of patients' files allowed us to conclude that paradoxical curvature as well as bifidity of MTs relate to the placement and number of the SGs on the MTs. Such SGs were previously documented in prenatal MTs since the 14th week, as well as in pædiatric patients. Conclusions It seems reasonable to speculate that paradoxical curvature, as well as bifidity of MT, this later being previously undocumented, are just adult vestiges of the primitive MT morphology. Nevertheless, documentation of the MT morphology should not rely exclusively on coronal CTs, as combined morphologies of that turbinate could occur.Aims The purpose of this study was to observe the stresses of all-on-four implant designs in an edentulous mandible in the implant, surrounding bone, and monolithic ceramics. Smad pathway Materials and Methods In mandibular all-on-four implant models, anterior implants were placed vertically, and posterior implants were differently inclined. On the full-arch fixed prosthetic restoration monolithic zirconia framework, monolithic lithium disilicate was prepared as the superstructure. Model 1M (1M-15.5); posterior implants angled at 15° to the occlusion plane and a cantilever length of 5 mm, Model 2M; (2M-15.9), Model 3M; (3M-30.5), and Model 4M; (4M-30.9) were prepared. A total of 300 N bilateral force was applied at an angle of 30° and oblique to the occlusion plane. Stress values on dental implants, abutments, the surrounding bone, and prosthetic restorations were calculated. Results The highest stress concentration was observed in the 2nd connector region between the canine and the 1st premolar tooth in the monolithic zirconia frameworks (457.21 MPa). Stress concentration in the cortical bone was 60.93 MPa in posterior implants. Stress was higher in posterior angled implants than straight implants. Stress at posterior angulation increased by 21 MPa in implants angled at 15°. Conclusion In bilateral loading, the force applied to anterior implants does not have a significant effect on the bone structure. Stress concentration increases in posterior angled implants and surrounding bone. Moreover, stress concentration increases as the length of the cantilever, the weakest part in all-on-four implants, increases. As posterior implant angulation increases, stress concentration level and localization are affected.
