Aspectos metodológicos para el tratamiento estadístico de la infraestructura en América Latina y el Caribe

La disponibilidad de información cuantitativa sobre inversiones en infraestructura es imprescindible para realizar análisis e investigaciones sobre el tema y para que quienes adoptan decisiones de política puedan formular medidas pertinentes, oportunas y sostenibles. La existencia de una base de datos robusta y estandarizada podría facilitar respuestas para varias preguntas cruciales: ¿cuánto debe crecer la inversión en infraestructura para que el PIB crezca, por ejemplo, en un punto porcentual?, ¿cuál es el nivel de la inversión en infraestructura que maximiza el crecimiento?, ¿es sostenible en el largo plazo?, ¿se gasta lo suficiente en mantenimiento o reparaciones?, ¿en cuánto tiempo se espera que una determinada obra de infraestructura tenga el esperado impacto económico y social?, ¿el monto de inversión que se efectúa en infraestructura compensa el agotamiento de otro tipo de capitales?, ¿es apropiada para el desarrollo sostenible la estructura sectorial de la inversión en infraestructura?, en fin, ¿qué porcentaje de las inversiones en infraestructura se originan en rentas y otros beneficios de la extracción de recursos naturales?, entre otros.

Tratamiento Quirúrgico de Mesiodens en Odontopediatría

Supernumerary teeth are a relatively frequent disorder of odontogenesis that can interfere with the development of the germs teeth. This pathology is most common in the maxillary anterior area, called mesiodens, and their prevalence is generally reported to occur more frequently in male than female, in a ratio of 2:1. The aim of this article was to report the clinical procedures performed in the Clinic of Pediatric Dentistry at the Araraquara School of Dentistry when the presence of two mesiodens, radiographically shown, caused retention of permanent anterior teeth, resulting in esthetic and funcional disturb. All the surgical procedures, etiology and the importancy of the early diagnostic for the appropriate treatment was detailed described.

To improve the anchoring and prevent the collapse of the apparatus was set up last amended version of it by Dr Raveli quoted as Herbst splint. Recent research indicates the use of this device after the peak pubertal growth, creating an appropriate response condylar. The aim of this work is to show the orthodontist a choice of how to use the splint Herbst in Class malocclusions II-1.

The status epilepticus (SE) is characterized by a series of crises which occur without recovery of consciousness or a single seizure lasting more than 30 minutes and can damage the central nervous system and systemic. The duration and frequency of attacks are directly related to patient prognosis. Whether seizures occur often and are longer, increase the risk of neurological and systemic complications. Child population has a higher frequency of seizures and it is associated with a lower threshold of immature brain to trigger these episodes. Aim: To determine the safest drugs prescribed for children in SE, their doses and schedules. A bibliographic survey was performed in electronic databases. Methods: The scientific health descriptors used for search was: “status epilecticus” and “anticonvulsivants” and “child”. Results: This strategy identified 396 manuscripts, of whom four were considered eligible for the study, after the assessment by floating reading and criteria. Of these, two were randomized trials and two descriptive. The studies address the use of oral midazolam, rectal diazepam and intravenous lorazepam. Conclusions: All investigated drugs were effective in treat in status epilepticus. Lorazepam is highlight, since it has fewer secondary effects and, as an alternative to the intravenous, oral midazolam. However, there is a need for further studies to demonstrate the efficacy and safety in the use of drugs in children.

Tratamiento conservador de tumor epitelial odontogénico calcificante asociado al canino inferior retenido: relato de caso clínico

The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour is a rare benign odontogenic neoplasm that accounts for approximately 1% of all odontogenic tumours. They are mainly located in the premolar/molar mandibular region, and are associated with an unerupted molar tooth. We present a literature review of the clinical, radiographic, pathological findings and treatment options of the calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour, as well as describing the case of an calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour associated with an impacted right mandibular in a 32-year-old male patient, who was treated conservatively, without no sign of recurrence of the lesion after five years.
