Prosthetic approaches for immediate implants in esthetic areas: Aliterature review and clinical cases

The placement of implants in fresh extraction sockets followed for provisionalization allows soft tissues preservation and alveolar ridge, however for this some requisites are necessary. This article describe the factors involved in immediate implants and the prosthetic approachs for this type of therapy. Addtionaly two clinicals case were presented showing diferents approachs for in prosthetic stage for maintenance the aesthetic aperance of soft tissues of the immediate implants.

New approaches to dental occlusion: A literature update

Because the study of occlusion is a basic area in dentistry, its components, physiology and integration with the stomatognathic system (SS) have been the subject of interest in the scientific literature. However, the focus given to this issue has changed substantially. Currently, new approaches have been proposed in order to update concepts and to demonstrate the full integration and functionality of this system within the human body. With this approach, the authors proposed the following literature review aimed at gathering recent papers (published from 2000 to 2010) with innovative study design, methodology and/or results. The authors' intention is to show the main trends in the study of occlusion and the SS. The literature review was conducted in the PubMed database, using initially the term dental occlusion as a key-word. As items of interest were found, papers were grouped by categories according to their main subject matter. Forty-seven articles were selected and the main categories obtained were: 1. functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI); 2. brain activation; 3. masticatory/occlusal function; 4. body function and physical performance; 5. osseoperception; 6. finite element models; and 7. occlusion and pain. Observing the current literature, the authors found that recent studies present different methodologies for the study of occlusion. These studies have allowed scientists to obtain detailed information about the physiology of occlusion and the SS, as well as about its integration in the body. Research in this area should be continued in order to clarify, in detail, the role of each component of the SS and its interaction with human physiology. © 2012 by CHROMA, Inc.

Gestão ambiental em cadeias de suprimentos: Perspectivas atuais e futuras de pesquisa

This article aims to identify the main definitions, practices and related avenues for future research on green supply chain management (GSCM). From a systematic literature review and analysis in major journals related to the topic and indexed in Scopus, was possible: a) identify key research goals of the articles analyzed, b) the research methodology adopted, c) the predominant industrials sectors studied, and d) the practices of GSCM considered relevant by researchers. Results are presented in each of these analytical perspectives. These results may be useful both for those interested in environmental management and in supply chain management, in view of the growing interest in GSCM.

Immediate loading of overdentures: systematic review

Introduction: The goal of implant treatment is the formation of a direct bone-implant interface contact. Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the possibilities of immediate loading treatment for edentulous patients rehabilitated with mandibular and maxillary overdentures. Material and methods: A literature review using the PubMed and BIREME databases between the periods of 1977 and 2011 was performed. Results: From an initial yield of 218 titles, 78 articles were selected for text analysis, finally resulting in 23 studies (16 prospective, 6 prospective randomized, and 1 prospective multicenter) that met the inclusion criteria. Conclusion: The immediate loading protocol through which the implants are subjected to occlusal function immediately after their placement was introduced to overcome this limitation. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

Importance of physical therapy in the family health strategy: integrative review

Objective: to analyze the importance of physical therapy in the Family Health Strategy (FHS). Methodology: integrative literature review, guided by the research question << What is the importance of physical therapy in the FHS? >>. The survey was conducted in the Virtual Health Library and in the website Google Scholar in November and December 2012. The inclusion criteria were: fully available scientific study, published between 2007 and 2012, with free access, and having at least one of the DeCS selected in the title. Results: we found out that the importance of physical therapist’s action at the FHS has been recognized both by professionals included in the teams and users of health care units, showing that, by means of the physical therapist’s preventive and clinical action, the costs and demands in the tertiary care can be reduced. Conclusion: the population and the professionals recognize the physical therapist’s positive impact on the FHS.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and heart rate variability: a literature update

Background: The literature indicates that chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects cardiac autonomic control. In this study, we conducted a literature review in order to investigate the heart rate variability (HRV) in COPD subjects. Methods: A search was performed in Medline database, using the link between the keywords: “autonomic nervous system”, “cardiovascular system”, “COPD” and “heart rate variability”. Results: The search resulted in a total of 40 references. Amongst these references, the first exclusion resulted in the barring of 29 titles and abstracts, which were not clearly related to the purpose of review. This resulted in a total of 11 articles that were then read and utilized in the review. The selected studies indicated that there is significant reduction of HRV in patients with COPD, characterized by reduction of indices that assess parasympathetic activity in addition to dealing with the global autonomic modulation. We also established that supervised exercise can reduce these harmful effects in COPD patients. Also, it was reported that the use of non-invasive ventilation in these patients may contribute to the improvement of respiratory symptoms, with no impairing, and may even induce positive responses in cardiac autonomic regulation. Conclusion: The studies indicate a need for further investigations to guide future therapies to improve the treatment of cardiovascular system in the respiratory diseases.

Análise de métodos de mapeamento de perigo: uma proposta de elaboração de mapeamento de perigo de escorregamento planar de solo via utilização do método participativo

This final assignment aimed to promote a critical analysis of methods of preparation mappings danger of landslide and presentation of proposed development from the use of participative method, as an instrument to facilitate the identification of adverse geological processes. There search was executed from literature review about concept associated with geological dangers theme and the typology and characteristics of gravitational mass movements. We analyzed particularly the so-called methods of mapping danger tradicional/classic and alternative. It is believed, that integrating the work of specialists with the participation of involvedagents (local community and stake holders). This literature review and proposed work do noted in itself. You need the continuing advance in the discussion, debates and research on this topic as well as public policies that act on problems identified more concretely
