RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Considering that misfit is a significant predictor of the clinical success of indirect restorations, the objective of this study was to evaluate the marginal and internal misfit of two computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) RMC ceramic materials used as occlusal veneers (OVs) of different thicknesses. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A CAD model of a mandibular first molar was obtained and OV preparations 0.5-, 1.0-, and 1.5-mm thick were modeled and milled in two different materials (n=10/group): resin nanoceramic (RNC) and polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN). Using the same CAD model, tooth preparations were milled in fiber-reinforced epoxy resin (n=20/thickness). The marginal and internal misfit of the restorations was assessed by X-ray microtomography. The measurements of the marginal gap (MG) and absolute marginal discrepancy were performed in two locations on each slice, whereas internal gap (IG) measurements were performed at ten locations on each slice. The data obtained were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance and Tukey post-hoc tests (α=0.05). RESULTS: No significant effect was attributable to the material type or material-thickness interaction for the MG, absolute marginal discrepancy (AMD), or IG (p>0.05). However, the thickness significantly affected the IG of the restorations (p<0.05). CAD/CAM RNC and PICN systems presented similar MG and AMD for OVs 0.5-, 1.0-, and 1.5-mm thick. However, the IG varied between thicknesses.

RESUMO

Magnetic resonance imaging has been shown to be very useful in the diagnosis and monitoring of multiple diseases affecting the central nervous system. Gadolinium has been used extensively worldwide. It has been estimated that since its introduction more than two hundred million doses of GBCA have been administered globally. Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) were long considered medicines with a high safety profile, the literature reports incidences of immediate adverse effects such as headache, dizziness, and altered sense of taste. Studies performed a few years after the introduction of GBCA showed that there were gadolinium deposits in the tissues but their clinical significance was not known. It wasn’t until 2006 when the first reports were published that associated the gadolinium ion tissue deposits from GBCA with a systemic inflammatory entity of the connective tissue similar to scleroderma known as Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF), in patients with chronic renal failure. In 2013, the association between the use of GBCAs and the progressive increase in the signal intensity of the dentate nucleus and the globus pallidus in T1-weighted MRI images without contrast medium, was described for the first time. This review describes the most relevant aspects of the pathophysiology of these findings taking into account their differential diagnosis.


Las imágenes por resonancia magnética han mostrado ser de gran utilidad en el diagnóstico y seguimiento de múltiples enfermedades que afectan el sistema nervioso central. El gadolinio se ha utilizado ampliamente a nivel mundial. Se estima que desde su introducción se han administrado más de doscientos millones de dosis de MCBG en el mundo. Los medios de contraste basados en Gadolinio (MCBG) fueron considerados por mucho tiempo medicamentos con un alto perfil de seguridad, la literatura reporta incidencia de efectos adversos inmediatos como cefalea, mareo y alteración del sentido del gusto. Estudios realizados pocos años después de la introducción de los MCBG mostraron que había depósitos de gadolinio en los tejidos, pero no se conocía su significancia clínica Fue hasta 2006 cuando se publicaron los primeros reportes que asociaban el depósito tisular del ion gadolinio proveniente de los MCBG con una entidad inflamatoria sistémica del tejido conectivo similar a la escleroderma conocida como Fibrosis Sistémica Nefrogénica (FSN) en pacientes con falla renal crónica. En 2013 se describió por primera vez la asociación entre el uso de los MCBG y el aumento progresivo de la intensidad de señal del núcleo dentado y los globos pálidos en las imágenes de RM ponderadas en T1 sin medio de contraste. En esta revisión se describen los aspectos más relevantes de la fisiopatología de estos hallazgos considerando su diagnóstico diferencial.

RESUMO

The degree of interplay among variables in dental implant treatment presents a challenge to randomized clinical trials attempting to answer questions in a timely, unbiased, and economically feasible fashion. Further adding complexity to the different scenarios is the varied implant designs and related bone response, area of implantation, implant bulk material, restoration, abutments and related screws, fixation mode (screwed, fixed, or a combination), and horizontal implant-abutment matching geometry. This article critically appraises the most common mechanical testing methods used to characterize the implant-prostheses complex. It attempts to provide insight into the process of construction of an informed database of clinically relevant questions regarding preclinical evaluation of implant biomechanics and failure mechanisms. The use of single load to failure, fatigue life, fatigue limit, and step-stress accelerated life testing is discussed with emphasis on their deliverables, weaknesses, and strengths. Fractographic analysis and challenges in the correlation between laboratory- and in-service-produced failures of dental ceramics, resin composites, and titanium are introduced. In addition, examples are presented of mechanical characterization studies used in our laboratory to assess some implant-supported rehabilitation variables.

RESUMO

Introducción: Los textos y descripciones clásicas señalan patrones diferentes de presentación del cáncer broncogénico según el tipo celular, que han comenzado a ser cuestionados. Objetivo: Identificar los patrones del cáncer broncogénico en la radiografía del tórax de acuerdo con el tipo celular y compararlos con las descripciones usuales. Tipo de Estudio: Serie de casos. Lugar de Estudio: Cuatro hospitales en Bogotá: Hospital Central de la Policía, Instituto Nacional de Cancerología, Hospital Santa Clara, Hospital de la Samaritana. Pacientes y Métodos: En pacientes con diagnóstico histológico de cáncer broncogénico y clasificación precisa del tipo celular se revisaron en forma estándar las principales características radiológicas al momento del diagnóstico y se compararon con las series más conocidas (Clínica Mayo y Marshfield). Resultados: En 236 pacientes (edad promedio 61 años, 39 por ciento mujeres), la mayoría escamocelular (37 por ciento ) o adenocarcinoma (36 por ciento ), la localización de los adenos en general sigue la tendencia reciente (predominio central: 60 por ciento ) al igual que los escamocelulares (72 por ciento ) y las características radiológicas generales son similares entre estos tipos celulares más frecuentes. En etapas tempranas del adeno tiende a localizarse más hacia la periferia y los escamocelulares son tanto centrales como periféricos. En etapas avanzadas todos los tipos celulares predominan en localización central. Conclusión: En esta serie de casos no se encuentra diferencia significativa en la localización entre escamo y adenocarcinoma, siendo estos resultados diferentes a los de las descripciones clásicas. Es probable que la presentación radiológica del tumor esté cambiando y que parte de los hallazgos se expliquen por el estado al momento del diagnóstico
