One method to evaluate the clinical success of cemented restorations is measuring the marginal adaptation. There is a correlation between the fitting of the restoration and problems caused by clinically undetectable passage of bacteria between the tooth structure and the veneer.

To evaluate in comparison the marginal adaptation of veneers produced via CAD/CAM and press technique.

32 extracted incisors are divided into two equal-number groups (n=16) according to the production technique - CAD/CAM zirconium veneers and press-ceramic veneers. Cut sections are examined under a SEM magnification. Marginal accuracy is measured as the distance between the finish line of the tooth and the margin of the veneer at eight fixed locations.

The mean values of marginal gap of group 1 are external adaptation - 79.88±3.71 µm; internal adaptation - 79.14±15.70 µm; cervical adaptation - 82.39±28.55 µm; incisal adaptation - 86.85±21.72 µm. The mean values of marginal gap of group 2 are external adaptation - 100.31±2.16 µm; for internal adaptation - 101.01±12.51 µm; cervical adaptation - 91.55±3.31 µm; incisal adaptation - 93.76±2.54 µm.

Veneers produced via CAD/CAM technology have better fit at the external and internal marginal wall. There is no statistically significant difference between the gaps at the cervical and the incisal areas.

Surgical correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is inevitably accompanied by blood loss. About 37-85% of patients undergo allogeneic transfusions associated with a risk of serious complications. Prediction of the expected blood loss volume remains a topical problem. In this regard, there is a need to clarify predictors of increased blood loss.

To assess the effect of vertebrectomy on the intraoperative blood loss volume during surgical correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

A retrospective study included 511 adolescents who underwent posterior correction of spinal deformity. Two groups were allocated Group I consisted of 303 patients who underwent multilevel transpedicular fixation; Group II included 208 patients who underwent multilevel transpedicular fixation combined with Smith-Peterson osteotomy.

Intergroup comparisons revealed significant differences in the number of transpedicular fixation levels and the volume of blood loss, which were higher in Group II. After aligning the groupsis, considering the number of transpedicular fixation levels.

The Barthel Index of Activities of Daily Life (ADL) is a scale used to evaluate performance in daily life activities and investigate the reason and resulting relationships in a comprehensive, non-biased manner.

The aim of this study was to compare the daily life activities of patients who underwent proximal femoral tumor resection prosthesis assessed by the Barthel Index with the activities of daily living of patients with a total hip prosthesis performed for non-tumor reasons.

Twenty-eight patients were included in the study. Sixteen patients underwent hip prosthesis for reasons other than tumor (femur proximal avascular necrosis, coxarthrosis, etc.) and 12 underwent wide resection and femur proximal tumor resection prosthesis due to primary malignant bone tumor or metastasis in the proximal femur. The Barthel Index was used to evaluate their life quality at 3 months.

A total of 28 patients (mean age 60.9±1.4 yrs, range 19.0-84.0, 17 female and 11 male patients) were included into the study. Selleck Oxythiamine chloride Mean ADL score was 84.5±20.6 (5-100.0). While only one patient was totally dependent in terms of daily life activities, 8 other patients were totally independent. When the patient groups were categorized by degree of dependency according to the ADL scores, it was found that dependency states of the two surgery groups were similar in distribution (p=0.212, p=0.703, and p=1.000 respectively).

Functional recovering levels were good in the patients who underwent a surgery for proximal femoral tumor resection prosthesis; there was no significant difference when we compared the functional level after total hip prosthesis applied for non-tumor reasons.

A socio-demographic analysis of marriage and family requires conducting deep studies penetrating the essence of the processes among the population. The issue of birth-rate, as a basic factor that determines the reproduction of the population, takes a central position in the demographic studies. The study of the influence of the mothers' reproductive behaviour on their daughters' repro-ductive attitude is of an undisputed interest. This study deals with mothers' realized plans as a factor in their daughters' family planning.

This cross-sectional study was carried out in 2018 through a direct group anonymous inquiry among 395 female students. The statistical processing of the data was made with descriptive, alternative, correlation and variance analyses.

The students' reproductive behaviour is statistically significantly dependent on their mothers' realized family plans. Moth-ers' education and the real number of children are statistically significant factors for their daughters' views about the ideal and planned number of children.

This study of the reproductive behaviour of the students advances the knowledge in the field by revealing that it is statisti-cally significantly dependent on their mothers' realized plans.

Appropriate intrapartum conduct in a twin delivery remains a challenging aspect of obstetric practice. The objective of this study was to compare neonatal and maternal outcomes in twin pregnancies according to mode of delivery.

This is a single centre retrospective cohort study of all consecutive spontaneously-conceived twin deliver-ies (≥ 24 weeks, estimated fetal weight ≥ 500 grams) over a nine-year period between 01/01/2007 - 31/12/2016 at a tertiary-level centre. Neonatal outcomes included survival, APGAR score, prematurity-associated pathology (PAP), admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and length of stay (LOS). Maternal outcomes included postpartum complications and LOS. Statistical analysis comprised Chi-square test with subsequent p-value and odds-ratio with 95% confidence interval. Statistical significance was set at p<0.05.

A total of 173 consecutive women with spontaneously-conceived twin deliveries were enrolled in this study, 129 (74.6%) women delivered by caesarean section (CS).
