Background and aim: Severe hemodynamic fluctuations during dental treatment can trigger highly undesirable physical reactions. A study was made to determine whether the administration of propofol and sevoflurane contributes to the stabilization of hemodynamic parameters during dental treatment in pediatric patients versus the use of local anesthesia alone. Materials and methods: Forty pediatric patients needing dental treatment were assigned to either general anesthesia with local anesthesia (study group [SG]) or local anesthesia alone (control group [CG]). Two percent sevoflurane in oxygen (100% oxygen, 5 L/min) and continuous propofol infusion (target‐controlled infusion [TCI], 2 μg/mL) were used as general anesthesia agents in SG; and 2% lidocaine with 1:80,000 adrenaline was used as local anesthesia in both groups. Heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen saturation were measured before starting dental treatment (baseline) and every 10 min during dental treatment. Results: Blood pressure (p <.001), heart rate (p =.021) and oxygen saturation (p =.007) decreased substantially after the administration of general anesthesia. The levels of these parameters subsequently remained low and then recovered at the end of the procedure. On the other hand, the oxygen saturation values remained closer to baseline in SG versus CG. In contrast, the hemodynamic parameters experienced lesser fluctuations in CG than in SG. Conclusions: General anesthesia affords more favorable cardiovascular parameters during the entire dental treatment in comparison to local anesthesia alone (blood pressure and heart rate decrease significantly and oxygen saturation proves more stable and with values closer to baseline), and allows dental treatment to be performed on healthy, lacking cooperative ability children who otherwise could not be treated with local anesthesia alone. No side effects were observed in either group. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

General Dentistry ,UNESCO:CIENCIAS MÉDICAS - Abstract
Very limited data are available on the hemodynamic and ventilatory changes during sedation and general anesthesia using bispectral index (BIS) monitoring in intellectually disabled children. The purpose was to determine the hemodynamic and ventilatory changes after propofol and sevoflurane administration in children with special needs (CSN) versus healthy children (HC) during dental treatment.Forty pediatric patients needing dental treatment were allocated into two groups: children without systemic disease (healthy children [HC]) and mentally disabled children (children with special needs [CSN]). Sevoflurane in oxygen (100% oxygen, 5 l/min) and continuous propofol infusion (target-controlled infusion [TCI], 2 µg/ml) were used as sedative agents, and 2% lidocaine with 1:80,000 adrenaline was used as local anesthesia in both groups. Heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation (SaO2), respiratory rate (RR), exhaled carbon dioxide (CO2), blood pressure (BP) and bispectral monitoring (BIS) values were recorded during the entire dental treatment procedure.A statistically significant decrease in systolic BP, diastolic BP and RR was observed, with no significant differences between the healthy and disabled groups. In contrast, the HR and BIS values were lower in the CSN group than in the healthy patients (Patients with special needs had lower HR and BIS values than healthy patients, while BP, SaO2 and exhaled CO2 showed similar results in both groups.

Tutors: Andrés Ozaita Mintegui, Anna Vázquez Oliver Down syndrome (DS) is the most common cause of intellectual disability and a genetic cause of early Alzheimer’s disease, produced by trisomy of whole or part of chromosome 21. Nevertheless, no gold-standard clinical treatment exists yet. The endocannabinoid system plays an important role in memory performance, being implicated in the pathophysiology of DS. Previously in the hosting laboratory, cannabinoid type-1 receptor (CB1R) function and expression were found enhanced in the hippocampus of young-adult trisomic (2-3 months old) Ts65Dn mice, the most used preclinical model of DS. A sub- chronic (7 days) pharmacological treatment with the CB1R antagonist rimonabant was observed to restore object-recognition memory in trisomic mice. Recently, the group found that long-term oral treatment with rimonabant also restored memory performance in middle-aged (10 months old) trisomic mice, an age when trisomic mice display a noticeable neurodegeneration, resembling Alzheimer’s disease observed in aged DS subjects. The purpose of the present study was to examine the neurodegenerative phenotype of trisomic mice after the long-term pharmacological inhibition of CB1R. A semi-automatic quantification method was developed to analyse cellular features from brain histological preparations. Analysis of locus coeruleus noradrenergic neurons showed a significant lost in trisomic mice that was not prevented by rimonabant treatment. Cholinergic neurodegeneration was not prevented by the treatment, and was only found in the medial septum, but not in other basal forebrain areas of trisomic mice. Together, despite the proven beneficial effects of rimonabant in memory performance, no effect of treatment was observed in the neurodegenerative phenotype of trisomic mice which clearly dissociates the pro-cognitive effect of rimonabant from the possibility of preventing neurodegeneration.

RESUMEN: Antecedentes: el acogimiento residencial es una medida compleja y que ha sido objeto de intensos debates en muchos países. Sin embargo, no existen muchos estudios sobre la evaluación de la calidad de estos servicios y mucho menos que hayan tenido en cuenta la opinión de los niños y jóvenes que los reciben. Método: en este estudio se entrevista a 209 jóvenes entre 11 y 20 años, que se encuentran en 21 hogares de acogimiento residencial, acerca de su satisfacción con la atención que reciben. Estos hogares de acogida se diferencian en tres tipos de programas que se compararán: preparación para la vida adulta (PAL), acogimiento terapéutico para problemas de conducta (TRC) y programas generalistas sin perfil específico (GRC). El instrumento empleado es una entrevista que recoge valoraciones cuantitativas y cualitativas. Resultados: los resultados muestran una tendencia a valoraciones con promedios positivos en prácticamente todos los aspectos, destacando el apoyo y la vinculación con los educadores que los atienden. Por otra parte, los jóvenes en TRC muestran puntuaciones más bajas en casi todos los aspectos, mientras que los jóvenes en PAL presentan las más altas. Conclusiones: se discutirán las principales implicaciones para la práctica desde esta perspectiva de los jóvenes.

Background: The aim of the present review was evaluate the utility and validity of the Bispectral Index (BIS) in dental treatment carried out under endovenous sedation, and compare its efficacy with clinical sedation scales. Material and Methods: Electronic and manual literature searches were conducted by two independent reviewers for articles published up to April 2017 in several databases, including Medline and Cochrane Library. Results: Sixteen articles met the inclusion criteria. A correlation was identified between BIS and clinical sedation scales. A BIS range between 75 and 84 showed a high probability of corresponding to an Observer’s Assessment of Alertness and Sedation Scale (OAA/S) value of 3; a scored 3 on the Ramsay scale corresponds around 85 on the BIS; while BIS values between 57 and 64 corresponded to a University of Michigan Sedation Scale value of 3. BIS monitoring provides continuous measurement of the patient’s hypnotic state or state of consciousness, awareness, and recall. It proved impossible to perform an analysis of statistical data drawn from the studies reviewed due to the disparity of inclusion criteria among the works. Conclusions: BIS for sedation monitoring might make possible to evaluate sedation levels objectively in real time, reducing the dose of the sedative required, increasing safety, and minimizing secondary effects.

La violencia de género es un problema social que cobra gran importancia en el ámbito académico en la actualidad. Se sustenta en la desigualdad histórica entre hombres y mujeres, observada y presente en distintas áreas de la vida diaria, mediantes comportamientos, actitudes y creencias sexistas. Estos estilos de pensamiento influyen negativamente en las relaciones interpersonales, y numerosas publicaciones suscriben la interrelación de los mismos con mantener relaciones de pareja nocivas y sufrir o producir violencia de género. El objetivo de esta investigación es estudiar en una muestra de adolescentes (n=482) de 14 a 18 años residentes en Asturias, la existencia o no de este tipo de opiniones y actitudes ante el sexismo, así como hacia el maltrato y la igualdad, debido a la importancia que tiene la prevención y la sensibilización en edades lo más tempranas posibles.

Objetivo: El propósito de este estudio fue analizar la incidencia de complicaciones después de la extracción quirúrgica de los terceros molares en pacientes de 12 a 18 años de edad. Pacientes y método: Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo de 390 extracciones quirúgicas de terceros molares superiores e inferiores en 173 pacientes en edades comprendidas entre los 12 y 18 años de edad, intervenidos bajo anestesia locorregional en el año 2000 en el Máster de Cirugía Bucal e Implantología Bucofacial de la Universidad de Barcelona. Los pacientes fueron divididos en tres grupos (A: 12-14 años, B:15-16 años, C: 17-18 años). Se registró la edad y el sexo del paciente, el motivo de la extracción, el grado de desarrollo dentario, la posición, la angulación y la inclusión del tercer molar. Finalmente se valoró la asociación entre dichas variables y la aparición de complicaciones postoperatorias. Resultados: La mayoría de los pacientes intervenidos fueron del sexo femenino (66,9%), y el grupo de edad en la que se realizó el mayor número de extracciones (62,8%) fue en el grupo C (17-18 años). El principal motivo de extracción fue la indicación por parte del ortodoncista (40,5%), seguido por la indicación profiláctica (39,5%). La presencia de clínica fue el motivo de extracción en un 20% de los casos. Se observó una incidencia del 15,6% de complicaciones postoperatorias tras la extracción de 390 terceros molares. En el grupo A el riesgo de complicaciones fue de 17,4%, en el grupo B de 19% y en el grupo C de 13,7%. Todas las complicaciones fueron reversibles y de corta duración como el dolor y la inflamación persistente, la infección, el trismo y la equimosis. Se presentó un caso de parestesia del nervio dentario inferior y un caso de parestesia del nervio lingual que remitieron a los 2 meses y al mes respectivamente. Conclusiones: este estudio demuestra que no hay diferencias significativas en las complicaciones observadas entre los tres grupos de edad, y por lo general, éstas son leves y reversibles. Se observó una mayor tendencia de complicaciones en las mujeres y el porcentaje de complicaciones aumenta cuanto menor es el espacio disponible para la erupción. Objective: An analysis is made of the incidence of complications following third molar surgical extraction in patients between 12 and 18 years of age. Patients and method: A retrospective study was conducted of 390 surgical extractions of upper and lower third molars in 173 patients operated upon under locoregional anesthesia during the year 2000 in the Master in Oral Surgery and Implantology of Barcelona University Dental School (Spain). The patients were divided into three age groups (A: 12-14 years, B: 15-16 years, C: 17-18 years). The reason for extraction, the degree of dental development, and third molar position, angle and impaction were recorded. Finally, the association of these variables to the appearance of postoperative complications was analyzed. Results: Most patients were females (66,9%), and the age group in which most extractions were carried out (62,8%) corresponded to Group C (17-18 years). The main reason for extraction was orthodontist indication (40,5%), closely followed by prophylaxis (39,5%). The existence of clinical manifestations was an indication for extraction in 20% of cases. The postoperative complications rate after the extraction of the global 390 molars was 15,6%. In Groups A, B and C the complication risks were 17,4%, 19% and 13,7%, respectively. All complications were reversible and of short duration. One case each of inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia and lingual nerve paresthesia was recorded, which subsided after one and two months, respectively. Conclusions: There were no significant differences in complications between the three age groups. An increased tendency towards complications was observed in females, and the percentage of postoperative problems increased.

Objetivos: Este trabajo pretende demostrar que se pueden realizar la mayoría de las intervenciones quirúrgicas de la cavidad bucal en la población pediátrica en un medio ambulatorio, así como valorar y mostrar la actividad realizada en el Máster de Cirugía e Implantología Bucal de la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad de Barcelona durante el año 2000. Diseño del estudio: Para la realización de este trabajo se ha contabilizado la actividad quirúrgica de las unidades de cirugía bucal y cirugía con láser en la población pediátrica en el Máster de Cirugía e Implantología Bucal de la Universidad de Barcelona. Resultados: De las 3187 intervenciones quirúrgicas realizadas en nuestro servicio, 489 fueron en pacientes menores de 18 años. La exodoncia quirúrgica de terceros molares inferiores fue la más frecuente (55’6%), seguida de otras extracciones dentarias (33’6%), quirúrgicas o no, y del resto de intervenciones (10’6%) que incluyeron: fenestraciones de caninos u otros dientes incluidos, exéresis de frenillos, de mucoceles y reubicaciones dentarias. Se presentaron complicaciones tras la extracción quirúrgica de los terceros molares en un 15’93% de los casos, siendo las más frecuentes el dolor (4’35%) y la tumefacción (4’35%), signos propios de la inflamación postoperatoria. Conclusiones: Nuestra experiencia muestra que la cirugía bucal ambulatoria puede practicarse de forma segura en la población pediátrica siempre y cuando se disponga de los medios y del personal sanitario adecuados. Aim: A study is made to show that most pediatric oral surgical interventions can be performed on a day case surgery or ambulatory basis, and to describe the activity of the Master of Oral Surgery and Implantology (Barcelona University Dental School, Spain) in the year 2000.

Existe un conjunto de procesos que han sido denominados genéricamente lesiones fibroóseas benignas, entre las que se encuentran la displasia fibrosa, la osteomielitis esclerosante y el fibroma osificante o cementificante. Todos estos procesos tienen un estroma fibroblástico vascular y producen una matriz calcificada que comprende desde el hueso hasta el cemento. El fibroma osificante se caracteriza por presentar un crecimiento y una tumefacción deformante de evolución lenta que generalmente aparece en la mandíbula y puede producir desplazamiento dentario precoz. Desde el punto de vista radiológico aparece generalmente como un área radiotransparente unilocular bien definida y demarcada o como una radiotransparencia con opacidades centrales o como una radiolucidez multilocular. Excepcionalmente puede ser radioopaca. Presentamos el caso de un paciente varón de 22 años que acude a nuestro Servicio para valorar una tumoración de tres meses de evolución localizada en la zona anterior del maxilar superior, asintomática y que radiológicamente se presentaba como un área radiotransparente rodeada por un halo esclerótico mal delimitado. El diagnóstico definitivo tras la exéresis quirúrgica de la lesión fue el de fibroma osificante. Realizamos la discusión del caso presentado junto con una revisión de la literatura. A number of processes generically referred to as benign fibro-osseous lesions comprise different disorders such as fibrous dysplasia, sclerotizing osteomyelitis and ossifying or cementing fibroma. These processes are all characterized by the existence of a vascular fibroblastic stroma, with the production of a calcified matrix ranging from bone to cementum. Ossifying fibroma involves slow-evolving growth with deforming swelling generally arising in the mandible, with possible early dental displacement. From the radiological perspective the disorder generally manifests as a well defined and delimited, unilocular radiotransparency, as a radiotransparent image with central opacifications, or as multilocular transparencies. The lesions exceptionally can be radiopaque. We present the case of a 22-year-old male presenting for evaluation of a three-month, asymptomatic tumor mass in the anterior sector of the upper jaw. Radiologically, the lesion appeared as a radiotransparent zone surrounded by a poorly delimited sclerotic halo. The definitive diagnosis following surgical resection of the lesion was ossifying fibroma. The case is discussed, and a review is provided of the literature on the subject.

- Abstract
Objectives: A study is made of the dental implications of oral cancer, with a view to avoiding the complications that appear once oncological treatment is started., Patients and Methods: The study comprised a total of 22 patients diagnosed with oral cancer according to clinical and histological criteria in the Service of Maxillofacial Surgery (Dental Clinic of the University of Barcelona, Spain) during the period 1996-2005, and posteriorly treated in different hospital centers in Barcelona., Results: Of the 22 patients diagnosed with oral cancer in our Service, the present study finally analyzed the 12 subjects who reported for the dental controls. As regards the remaining 10 patients, 5 had died and 5 could not be located; these subjects were thus excluded from the analysis. All of the smokers had abandoned the habit. The most common tumor location was the lateral margin of the tongue. None of the patients visited the dentist regularly before the diagnosis of oral cancer. T1N0M0 was the most common tumor stage. Surgery was carried out in 50% of the cases, while 8.4% of the patients received radiotherapy and 41.6% underwent surgery with postoperative radiotherapy. In turn, 66.6% of the patients reported treatment sequelae such as dysgeusia, xerostomia or speech difficulties, and one patient suffered osteoradionecrosis. Forty-one percent of the patients did not undergo regular dental controls after cancer treatment. As regards oral and dental health, 16.6% presented caries, and 50% had active periodontal disease., Conclusions: Protocols are available for preventing the complications of oral cancer treatment, and thus for improving patient quality of life. However, important shortcomings in the application of such protocols on the part of the public health authorities make it difficult to reach these objectives.

- Abstract
Objective: An analysis is made of the incidence of complications following third molar surgical extraction in patients between 12 and 18 years of age., Patients and Method: A retrospective study was conducted of 390 surgical extractions of upper and lower third molars in 173 patients operated upon under locoregional anesthesia during the year 2000 in the Master in Oral Surgery and Implantology of Barcelona University Dental School (Spain). The patients were divided into three age groups (A: 12-14 years, B: 15-16 years, C: 17-18 years). The reason for extraction, the degree of dental development, and third molar position, angle and impaction were recorded. Finally, the association of these variables to the appearance of postoperative complications was analyzed., Results: Most patients were females (66.9%), and the age group in which most extractions were carried out (62.8%) corresponded to Group C (17-18 years). The main reason for extraction was orthodontist indication (40.5%), closely followed by prophylaxis (39.5%). The existence of clinical manifestations was an indication for extraction in 20% of cases. The postoperative complications rate after the extraction of the global 390 molars was 15.6%. In Groups A, B and C the complication risks were 17.4%, 19% and 13.7%, respectively. All complications were reversible and of short duration. One case each of inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia and lingual nerve paresthesia was recorded, which subsided after one and two months, respectively., Conclusions: There were no significant differences in complications between the three age groups. An increased tendency towards complications was observed in females, and the percentage of postoperative problems increased.

- Abstract
Aim: A study is made to show that most pediatric oral surgical interventions can be performed on a day case surgery or ambulatory basis, and to describe the activity of the Master of Oral Surgery and Implantology (Barcelona University Dental School, Spain) in the year 2000., Design: The study documents the surgical activity of the Units of Oral Surgery and Laser Surgery in pediatric patients, in the context of the Master of Oral Surgery and Implantology (Barcelona University Dental School, Spain)., Results: Of the 3187 operations carried out in our Service in this period, 489 involved patients under 18 years of age. The surgical removal of third molars was the most common intervention (55.6%), followed by other surgical or non-surgical tooth extractions (33.6%) and other interventions (10.6%) comprising fenestration of impacted canines or other teeth, frenectomies, the removal of mucoceles, and tooth relocations. Complications after surgical third molar extraction were recorded in 15.93% of cases, the most frequent problem being the pain and swelling (4.35% each) characteristic of postoperative inflammation., Conclusions: Our experience shows that day case oral surgery can be safely performed in pediatric patients, provided the required means and health care personnel resources are available.

- Abstract
A number of processes generically referred to as benign fibroosseous lesions comprise different disorders such as fibrous dysplasia, sclerotizing osteomyelitis and ossifying or cementing fibroma. These processes are all characterized by the existence of a vascular fibroblastic stroma, with the production of a calcified matrix ranging from bone to cementum. Ossifying fibroma involves slow-evolving growth with deforming swelling generally arising in the mandible, with possible early dental displacement. From the radiological perspective the disorder generally manifests as a well defined and delimited, unilocular radiotransparency, as a radiotransparent image with central opacifications, or as multilocular transparencies. The lesions exceptionally can be radiopaque. We present the case of a 22-year-old male presenting for evaluation of a three-month, asymptomatic tumor mass in the anterior sector of the upper jaw. Radiologically, the lesion appeared as a radiotransparent zone surrounded by a poorly delimited sclerotic halo. The definitive diagnosis following surgical resection of the lesion was ossifying fibroma. The case is discussed, and a review is provided of the literature on the subject.
