Thus, this review was conducted to identify the primary prevention methods of dental caries in adults to improve oral health at the clinical and community levels. Methods: This review followed the PICO strategy with the research question: “What are the methods of primary prevention of dental car...

A Cost-Effective Framework for Monitoring Disaster Recovery Infrastructures

Keeping Disaster Recovery Infrastructures (DRI) operational is vital in case of incidents. Notwithstanding, continuously monitoring them keeps a costly activity. Therefore, it is essential to have cost-effective solutions while maintaining a continuous. In that aim, this work proposes a cost-effective framework for monitoring DRI supported by an Internet of Things (IoT) device collecting data from their sensors...

Design and Characterization of Novel Barium Strontium Titanate Thick Films for ...

In this article, a novel study of the design and characterization of barium strontium titanate (BST) thick films produced by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) on flexible platinum foils is reported. Intended for sub-6 GHz radio frequency (RF) applications, a study on film and electrode thickness is conducted. First, a comparison of tunability and quality factor between different film thicknesses regarding freque...

Applicability of the ROPScore as a predictive algorithm for early detection of ...

Introduction and purpose: ROPScore is a scoring system that was proposed to predict severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) using easily obtainable parameters as predictive variables. The aim of this study is to assess the accuracy of the ROPScore algorithm as a predictor of ROP by the second week of life. Materials and Methods: Retrospective cohort study of 239 preterm infants with a gestational age (GA) ≤ 32 ...

Ocular amniotic membrane transplantation clinical applications and outcomes

Objectivos: Avaliar a eficácia da transplantação de membrana amniótica (TMA) na patologia de superfície ocular (PSO) graves. Introdução: A TMA é realizada na PSO como suporte para proliferação de células estaminais e para reepitelização da córnea, permitindo um retorno a integridade anatómica, uma redução em sintomas e uma melhoria da melhor acuidade visual corrigida (MAVC). Métodos: Análise retrospectiva de 32...

Analysis of choroidal structure changes in diabetic patients without diabetic r...

ABSTRACT Purpose: To identify changes in choroidal structure in diabetic patients without diabetic retinopathy (DR) that led to choroidal thickening after one year of follow-up, by differentiating alterations in the stromal and vascular areas of the choroid. Methods: Prospective observational cohort study in which 125 diabetic patients without DR were included, from October 2014 to December 2015. Patients recei...
