Abstract:
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) may be affected by inflammatory, traumatic, infectious, congenital, and developmental, as seen in other joints. However, the most common affliction of the TMJ and masticatory apparatus is a group of functional disorders with associated pain that occurs predominantly in women and was previously known as the TMJ pain dysfunction syndrome. Since 1978, there have been substantial changes in the study of etiologic factors, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of what are now called temporomandibular disorders (TMD).(1)The general perception that all symptoms in the head, face, and jaw region without an identifiable cause constitute a "TMJ" problem is clearly unfounded.Although some oral lesions, such as torus palatinus and torus mandibularis are normal variants, but require prompt diagnosis and sometime treatment to reduce the potential for serious complication and enhance prosthodontic treatment. The purpose of this study is to inspect the relation of TMJ dysfunction syndrome to the presence of oral exostosis, and find the prevalence of torus palatinus (TP) and torus mandibularis (TM)The sample consisted of 932 teachers, 301 males and 631 females were examined for the presence of TMD, TP and / or TM. Analysis was carried out according to age, gender, TMJ dysfunction and the presence of TP and TM.Results indicated that 123(16.1%) had at least one symptoms of TMD, where as 49 (5.3%) had TP; and 67 (7.2) had TM. The male: female prevalence ratios of TP and TM were 1: 3.42 and 1: 1.81 respectively. The results revealed that significant relationship between TMD and tori, and increase in percentage of mandibular tori with the presence of TMJ dysfunctional syndrome more than maxillary tori were found.TP and TM were more frequent in females and there is significant relation between the TP and TM with presence of TMJ dysfunction syndrome ( P< 0.05 ) especially TM , the presence of TM might be useful to look for sign of dysfunction.

Abstract:
Nager syndrome is a rare hereditary syndrome characterized by severe mandibulofacial and pre-axial upper limb anomalies. Patients with Nager syndrome often exhibit syndromic Pierre-Robin sequence secondary to their hypoplastic mandible and require mandibular distraction osteogenesis to prevent dependence on a tracheostomy or gastric tube. This procedure, however, has been associated with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis. TMJ ankylosis is a highly debilitating condition that dramatically impairs patients’ function and can result in facial asymmetry in affected children during periods of rapid facial growth. Surgical intervention is warranted in patients who fail physiotherapy; however, there is no gold standard treatment for surgically correcting TMJ ankylosis in patients with Nager syndrome. Herein, we detail the surgical management of TMJ ankylosis and class 2 malocclusion in a patient with Nager syndrome.

Abstract:
Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is the term used in Dentistry to define the structural and disorder changes affect the physiology of the masticatory system composed of TMJ and related to musculoskeletal structures. Objective: To conduct a descriptive, transversal and documentary study aiming to determine the profile of 14 TMD patients undergoing simultaneous dental and physiotherapeutic treatment at a private practice of the city of Fortaleza-Ce. Material and methods: The following instruments for the collection of the data were employed: files registering the evaluation and evolution, findings of the radiographic examinations and forms. Data were statistically analyzed through SPSS software, version 10.0. Results: Most of the sample was composed by females aged 32 years (+/-10.60) in average, mainly complaining about chronic headache, masticatory myalgia , TMJ pain, cervicalgy, otalgia, among others. The complete sample presented, at least, one pathology associated to and/or concomitant to TMD. The radiographic findings showed TMJ alterations and tooth losses. Analgesics were the most used drugs. Conclusion: TMD is a complex syndrome, with many etiologies and symptoms, aggravating and perpetuating factors, requiring multiple and even more specialized therapeutic management attempting treatment success.

Abstract:
Muenke syndrome is characterized by various craniofacial deformities and is caused by an autosomal-dominant activating mutation in fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 ( FGFR3P250R). Here, using mice carrying a corresponding mutation ( FgfR3P244R), we determined whether the mutation affects temporomandibular joint (TMJ) development and growth. In situ hybridization showed that FgfR3 was expressed in condylar chondroprogenitors and maturing chondrocytes that also expressed the Indian hedgehog (Ihh) receptor and transcriptional target Patched 1( Ptch1). In FgfR3P244R mutants, the condyles displayed reduced levels of Ihh expression, H4C-positive proliferating chondroprogenitors, and collagen type II- and type X-expressing chondrocytes. Primary bone spongiosa formation was also disturbed and was accompanied by increased osteoclastic activity and reduced trabecular bone formation. Treatment of wild-type condylar explants with recombinant FGF2/FGF9 decreased Ptch1 and PTHrP expression in superficial/polymorphic layers and proliferation in chondroprogenitors. We also observed early degenerative changes of condylar articular cartilage, abnormal development of the articular eminence/glenoid fossa in the TMJ, and fusion of the articular disc. Analysis of our data indicates that the activating FgfR3P244R mutation disturbs TMJ developmental processes, likely by reducing hedgehog signaling and endochondral ossification. We suggest that a balance between FGF and hedgehog signaling pathways is critical for the integrity of TMJ development and for the maintenance of cellular organization.

Abstract:
Objectives: To assess the expression of the symptoms of jaw muscle pain and its association with alterations in biochemistry, other symptoms and the carriage of staphylococci. Methods: Three different study populations were assessed. The first was selected and examined by the author and consisted of 43 pain and 41 age and sex matched controls. The second was a study of CFS patients who were blinded to the author and the author subsequently examined the associations between jaw muscle symptom reporting and the standardised biochemistry measures. The third study was also blinded to the author but included an investigation of staphylococci and certain cytokine and biochemistry measures. Results: The three studies clearly establish an association between the carriage of toxicogenic coagulase negative staphylococci and the expression of jaw muscle pain in both males and females. These associations were homogeneous and were found whether the patients were selected on the basis of having jaw muscle pain or selected from within a population of patients selected on the basis of having Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. The studies associated the changes with variations in biochemistry and these were in turn associated with symptom expression within the jaw muscle pain patients. These biochemical alterations included the dysregulation of immune cell counts, cytokines, electrolyte and protein metabolism. These symptoms and biochemical changes were associated with pain severity and illness duration and staphylococcal toxin production. From the data a model was developed which shows the mechanisms involved in the development of chronic pain in the jaw muscles. Conclusions: The carriage of toxicogenic coagulase-negative staphylococci were found to be associated with the expression of jaw muscle pain and the alterations in biochemistry associated with these symptoms.

Full text
Abstract:
Shaken Baby Syndrome is a form of child abuse estimated to occur to one in 20,000 babies and presumed to occur when a carer cannot cope with a constantly crying child and so gives it a sharp shake. This causes the brain to move within the skull, stretching and possibly tearing the veins that bridge the fluid filled gap. To better understand this condition, experiments were performed to measure the mechanical properties of bridging veins followed by detailed mathematical modelling of the motion of a baby’s brain in response to shaking. Few finite element models of shaken baby syndrome exist, and those either ignore the fluid surrounding the brain or model it as a soft solid. The importance of modelling the fluid properly is demonstrated, and the reliability of MSC.Dytran’s fluid-solid interaction modelling is confirmed. The first three-dimensional finite element model of shaken baby syndrome which accurately includes the cerebrospinal fluid is created and used to estimate tolerance criteria for causing subdural haematoma by shaking. This research concludes that shaking of a baby could produce bridging vein strain close to the tolerance for failure and hence should be considered a possible cause of subdural haematoma.

Abstract:
L'apparition d'une protéinurie néphrotique constitue un effet secondaire aux thérapies ciblées anti-angiogéniques utilisées en oncologie (anti-VEGF ligand et les inhibiteurs de récepteurs tyrosine kinase). Dans ces travaux, nous avons étudié 29 patients traités par ces thérapies. 8 d'entre eux ont développé des lésions glomérulaires minimes ou hyalinose segmentaire et focale (LGM/HSF) majoritairement suite au traitement par les inhibiteurs des récepteurs tyrosine kinases (RTKIs) et 13 présentaient principalement des lésions de microangiopathie thrombotique (MAT) après thérapie anti-VEGF ligand. Dans cette étude, nous avons mis en évidence que c-mip est un acteur majeur du développement de protéinurie néphrotique consécutive aux traitements par les RTKIs. En effet, le Sorafenib (RTKI) induit l’expression de c-mip en inhibant l’activité de RelA et ce mécanisme serait impliqué dans le déclenchement des lésions LGM/HSF. Le rôle de c-mip dans la physiopathologie des podocytopathies acquises nous a conduit à générer un modèle murin d'invalidation de c-mip, conditionnelle et spécifique du podocyte. Les souris déficientes pour c-mip ont été étudiées dans deux modèles expérimentaux de protéinurie, induits par le LPS et le Sorafenib, respectivement. Dans les deux modèles, la protéinurie était significativement atténuée chez les souris déficientes avec préservation de l'architecture glomérulaire en comparaison des souris témoins. Le sorafenib a entraîné chez les souris témoins des lésions glomérulaires caractérisées par des rétractions du floculus, des thrombi intraglomérulaires et des lésions podocytaires. Ces résultats suggèrent que le sorafenib constitue un nouveau modèle murin d'induction d'une glomérulopathie expérimentale et que l'invalidation de c-mip spécifiquement dans le podocyte confèrerait une résistance au développement de protéinurie et de lésions rénales, suggérant que c-mip serait une cible thérapeutique potentielle
Nephrotic proteinuria constitutes a serious side effect of anti-angiogenic therapies commonly used in oncology (anti-VEGF and tyrosine kinase receptorinhibitors, RTKI). In this work, we studied 29 patients treated by anti-angiogenic therapies. Eight of them developed minimal change nephrotic syndrome and focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (MCNS/FSGS), mainly after RTKI treatment, and 13 underwent thrombotic microangiopathy lesions, mostly associated with anti-VEGF ligand therapy. C-mip overexpression was strongly related to the onset of nephrotic proteinuria after RTKI. Sorafenib (RTKI) induced c-mip expression by inhibiting RelA activity, ultimately leading to MCNS/FSGS. To confirm and clarify the pathophysiological role of c-mip in acquired podocytopathies, we generated a conditional, podocyte-specific c-mip knock-out mouse model. C-mip knockout mice were subjected to two experimental models of proteinuria, induced by LPS and Sorafenib, respectively. In each model, proteinuria was significantly decreased in cmip-invalidated mice, while glomerular architecture was preserved as compared to control mice. In the latter, Sorafenib led to glomerular tuft retractions, intraglomerular thrombi and podocyte lesions. This is suggested as the first experimental model of RTKI-induced glomerulopathy. Moreover, the podocyte specific knock out of c-mip confers resistance to proteinuria and renal injury, confirming c-mip as a potential therapeutic target in idiopathic nephrotic syndrome

Abstract:
Previous studies for treating Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) are controversial regarding the effectiveness in alleviating anterior knee pain (AKP). The muscular imbalance between the vastus medialis oblique/vastus lateralis (VMO/VL) may be the underlying mechanical issue causing PFPS. It is hypothesized that Botox can decrease the force production capability of the lateral musculature mechanically similar to surgery. Strengthening the VMO while using Botox treatment can alleviating the muscular imbalance that occurs with subjects with PFPS. A double blind study, having all participants blinded and uninformed of the injection contents, was implemented to test this hypothesis testing three female subjects. Four knees were treated. One subject received the Botox treatment and serially a placebo injection in the other limb. Two other subjects received placebo injections. EMG was executed to evaluate functional testing and the performance of the injections during extension exercises. Electromyography (EMG) data were collected from the muscle groups while the subjects performed forceful knee extension activities on an isokinetic dynamometer. In addition, kinetic jump data and self-reports of pain and activity were collected. Data were collected four times during a 12-week period. The subject who received Botox injections expressed a significant decrease in reported PFP and an increase in daily activities. Botox was safe and effective in eliminating anterior knee pain. The VMO and VL resulted in similar fatigue indices at the completion of the 12- week study. The VMO and VL both resisted fatigue during at week 12.

O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar as alterações comportamentais e fisiológicas durante a remoção de tecido cariado através dos métodos mecânico e químico-mecânico (CARISOLV TM ), sob anestesia local com lidocaína a 2% sem vasoconstritor, em crianças com Síndrome de Down. O estudo foi realizado em 20 crianças ASA I, sendo 10 crianças com Síndrome de Down (grupo experimental) e 10 crianças “normais” (grupo controle), de 5 a 12 anos de idade. Foram realizadas avaliações comportamentais, através do índice de Venham modificado e mensurações automáticas (Criticaire System® - Scholar II) dos seguintes parâmetros fisiológicos: freqüência cardíaca, pressão arterial sistólica, pressão arterial diastólica e saturação de oxigênio, e comparados aos valores basais. A avaliação dos parâmetros comportamentais e fisiológicos ocorreram em 5 fases: (1) 5 minutos antes da anestesia local; (2) durante a anestesia local; (3) durante a remoção do tecido cariado; (4) imediatamente após a restauração e (5) 5 minutos após o término do procedimento. A fase de remoção do tecido cariado apresentou a maior alteração comportamental e fisiológica para todas as variáveis analisadas, exceto para a saturação de oxigênio. Em relação à alteração comportamental não foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes (significantes a 5 %)entre os tipos de tratamento para a remoção do tecido cariado em ambos os grupos. Em relação à freqüência cardíaca, houve diferença estatisticamente significante (significantes a 1 %) entre os grupos e o tipo de remoção do tecido cariado. Nas crianças “normais” (grupo controle) houve diminuição da freqüência cardíaca com a remoção químico-mecânica e aumento da freqüência cardíaca com a remoção mecânica do tecido cariado. Nas crianças com Síndrome de Down (grupo experimental) houve aumento da freqüência cardíaca com a remoção químico-mecânica e diminuição da freqüência cardíaca com a remoção mecânica do tecido cariado. Em relação à pressão arterial sistólica, não foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes entre os grupos avaliados e o tipo de remoção do tecido cariado. Em relação à pressão arterial diastólica e saturação de oxigênio não houve diferença estatisticamente significante em relação ao tipo de remoção do tecido cariado.
The aim of this study was to assess the behavior and physiological alterations observed in Down Syndrome children during caries removal using the mechanical or the chemo-mechanical (Carisolv TM ) methods and a 2% lidocaine anesthesia without vasoconstrictor. The study was conducted in 20 ASA I children between 5 and 12 years of age, being 10 with Down Syndrome (experimental group) and 10 “normal” children (control group). Behavior alterations were observed using the modified Venham index. The following physiological parameters were measured automatically using a Criticaire System® - Scholar II: heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and oxygen saturation. The behavior and physiological assessment were performed in 5 stages of caries removal: (1) 5 minutes before local dental anesthesia; (2) during local dental anesthesia; (3) during caries removal; (4) immediately after restoration; and (5) 5 minutes after the end of the treatment. The physiological parameters observed during caries removal were compared to the child’s baseline measurements. The phase of caries removal showed the greatest alteration in the behavior and all physiological aspects, except for oxygen saturation. No significant difference was found in the behavior alterations between the two groups (p > 0.05). Statistically significant difference was observed between the groups and the caries removal method in relation to the heart rate (p < 0.01). In the control group (normal children), the heart rate decreased during the chemo-mechanical caries removal method and increased when only the mechanical method was used. In the Down Syndrome group (experimental group), the opposite occurred, heart rate increased when the chemo-mechanical method of caries removal was used and decreased with the mechanical method. No statistical significant difference was observed between the two groups of children and the two caries removal methods studied in relation to oxygen saturation and systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

Abstract:
Introduction: Chronic orofacial pain (COFP) is distressing and disabling to sufferers and can be costly to patients, health services and society. Frequently, no underlying medical pathology can be found to account for the condition. Despite this, patients are treated according to a biomedical model, often by mechanistic and invasive procedures, which tend to be unsuccessful and not evidence based. Evidence suggests that cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) based management may produce improved outcomes for patients. However, published studies can tell us little about which intervention components are effective, or recommend an optimum way for these components to be applied. Aim: To develop an evidence based intervention for the management of COFP that is feasible and acceptable to patients and practitioners. Method: The Medical Research Council’s guidelines for developing complex interventions were used as a framework for the research. Evidence from multiple sources was synthesised to produce the draft components of an intervention to manage COFP. An exploratory trial investigated preliminary outcomes, acceptability, feasibility and explored parameters for a full scale randomised control trial. Results: The intervention was acceptable to participants and could be feasibly implemented. No conclusions could be drawn relating to the effectiveness of the intervention. Participants were not affected at baseline for a number of outcomes, which implies that cut off points should be introduced into the inclusion and exclusion criteria of any future studies. Conclusion: The study produced an intervention which is acceptable and feasible to participants, however it is not known if it is effective. A number of recommendations are made for progression to a larger, definitive trial.

Abstract:
Le interazioni sociali richiedono che un agente sia in grado di selezionare ed elaborare informazioni ambientali rilevanti, che sia situato in un contesto complesso, e che interagisca con altri agenti, rispettando le opportunità e i vincoli di contesto. Riconoscere noi stessi e gli altri come agenti intenzionali è un passaggio cruciale per il processo generale di comprensione sociale e, in particolare, per la nostra capacità di percepire le intenzioni e gli scopi altrui. Tali competenze sociali sostengono il nostro sviluppo fisico, cognitivo e affettivo promuovendo interazioni adattive. Di conseguenza, una disfunzione di tali competenze può compromettere gravemente l’autonomia e la qualità di vita. Si ritiene che un sistema distribuito medi la percezione di agentività e degli stati mentali altrui, ma la struttura interna dei processi che costituiscono la nostra capacità di comprendere i nostri simili e di interagire adeguatamente è tuttora per buona parte sconosciuta. Il progetto ha come obiettivo indagare le fasi iniziali di tali processi e, in particolare, l’elaborazione precoce di cues sociali (social affordances) per la detezione di agentività e opportunità d’interazione in contesti sociali. È strutturato in tre studi principali: il primo mira a esplorare i correlati elettrofisiologici (ERPs e dati di source localization) dell’elaborazione di informazioni visive per la detezione di agentività in interazione; il secondo mira a indagare possibili marcatori (ERPs) del profilo delle competenze di comprensione sociale associate alla sindrome di Williams; il terzo ha testato, tramite TMS, il ruolo causale di rTPJ nel mediare l’elaborazione pre-riflessiva di agentività e intenzionalità nel comportamento osservato.
Social interactions require an agent to be able to select and process relevant environmental information, to be situated in a complex context and to interact with other agents, according to the opportunities and boundaries of that context. Sensing ourselves and detecting others as intentional agents is a crucial step for the overall social understanding process and, in particular, for our ability to perceive others’ intentions and goals. Those social skills foster our physical, cognitive and affective development by promoting adaptive interactions. Consequently, a dysfunction of such skills can seriously affect the autonomy and quality of life. A distributed system is thought to subserve the perception of agency and others’ mental states, but the internal structure of processes that constitute our ability to understand our similars and interact adequately is still largely unknown. This project aimed at investigating early stages of those processes and, in particular, the initial elaboration of social cues (social affordances) for the detection of agentivity and opportunities for interaction in social situations. It is structured in three main empirical studies: the first one aimed at looking electrophysiological correlates (ERPs and source localization data) of visual information processing for the detection of agency in interactions; the second one aimed at looking for possible markers (ERPs) of the uneven profile of basic WS social understanding; the third one tested the causal role of rTPJ in mediating pre-reflective processing of agency and intentionality from observed behaviour by means of TMS.

Abstract:
AbstractMyofascial Pain Dysfunction Syndrome or myofascial pain disorder is one among the triad of disturbances that is encompassed within the umbrella term, TMJ disorders. Due to a lack of consensus on definitive symptoms and mode of diagnosis, it continues to remain an elusive entity for clinicians working with head and neck disorders and dentists alike. Additionally, There is a general lack of simplification in literature to enhance understanding and this is further complicated by the use of multiple descriptive terminologies to refer to the disorder. It is the objective of this chapter to provide a comprehensive overview of the subject for the reader, to clarify the various nuances of diagnosis, treatment planning and management modalities in addition to throwing light on the evolving terminologies, causative mechanisms and recent trends in MPDS management. The author has also highlighted the importance of a multi modality management approach, psychological rehabilitation with long term patient follow up. The authors personal experience with the use of specialised splints has been elucidated with relevant clinical case scenarios.

Abstract:
AbstractObstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a sleep disorder that causes pauses in breathing or periods of shallow breathing during sleep. Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) represent a non-invasive treatment for OSAS that has had the highest development in recent years. Nevertheless, literature has not primarily investigated the effects of mandibular advancement. This paper presents a finite element method numerical simulation model for evaluating the stress/strain distribution on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and periodontal ligaments caused by advancement devices used for the treatment of OSAS. Results highlight that the mandible lift phase generates significant stress values on TMJ, which cannot be neglected for extended usage of MADs. Furthermore, mandible molar teeth are more loaded than incisor ones.

Abstract:
Elderly people are a very vulnerable group to perform any work; as the years go by, the individual progressively loses body functions and for this reason professional diseases are increasingly recurrent when we are in advanced age. The study population consisted of fourteen artisans, ninety six percent of whom were in the age range of 65 to 80 years who live in the Association of artisans in the parish of Calderón in Quito, Ecuador; The work sampling method was applied where 20 minutes were obtained as standard time for the Kneading operation, which is performed in a manually operated machine, processing 5 kg of marzipan in each production cycle, during which time the workers remain standing and performing repetitive movements; the objective of the research is to design an appropriate technology used in the Kneading operation. With the previous study of modern manual kneading equipment, information was obtained on concepts such as shear force, bending moment, and tensile strength, used to proceed with the sketch and then simulate in SolidWorks Software for Windows. At the end of the data col-lection, we proceeded to design a dough mixer with AISI 1050 steel rollers, with HR processing; which allowed to reduce the repetitive movements of the right and left hand in 25000 TMU when processing the dough, reducing the current risk of contracting occupational diseases by repetitive movements such as Bursitis, which some people present nowadays because they are kneading manually. The bursas that are present in the joints of the human body become inflamed, another disease that was avoided is the Syndrome of the metacarpal tunnel that incapacitates the functionality of the hand. In the psychological area, these artisans are demotivated by the impossibility of developing activities when they were younger. With the present research it is foreseen to give them a better quality in the handling of the operations, because in the design special attention was paid to the ergonomic aspects and to the principle of the least effort.
