ABSTRACTA multidisciplinary approach to develop the future implant site in the aesthetic zone was illustrated. A patient with perio-endo combined lesion at her upper central incisors was treated. Before extraction, forced eruption was performed and 12 months later, satisfactory amount of bone apposition was detected. At 2 weeks after atraumatic extraction, implants were placed and loaded with implant-supported restorations following osseous healing. Variables related to crown dimensions, periodontal/peri-implanter soft-tissue health and patient's aesthetic satisfaction were recorded at baseline, before extraction and after prosthetic treatment. At 12-month control, crown dimensions in the implant site were identical to the baseline and in addition to the healthy peri-implant tissues, successful aesthetics were obtained. Forced eruption is a successful non-invasive method to develop the aesthetics of the peri-implant tissues and implant-supported restorations.

Aim: It is very difcult to nd veins and also seems unethical to withdraw blood daily in a preterm baby for the monitoring of jaundice during the course of phototherapy. So it becomes essential that we nd out a method which is non-invasive and at the same time accurate to assess jaundice. Jaundice is the most common morbidity in the rst week of life, reported in 60% of term, 80% of preterm (1, 2) & also being the commonest cause of readmission. Materials and Method: Study was planned to assess the accuracy of transcutaneous bilirubin in comparison to total serum bilirubin in premature jaundiced neonates of gestational age (28-32 weeks v/s 32-37 weeks) during phototherapy. Result: Study has demonstrated reliability of TCB measurements in preterm infants during phototherapy. Gestational age, comorbidities and risk factors for jaundice did not inuence the correlation. Summary: This study reveals that Transcutaneous Bilirubin Estimation by bilirubin meter can be used as a non-invasive method for monitoring of jaundice treatment during phototherapy in preterm neonates.

The syndrome of the "empty" Turkish saddle (PTS) is one of the poorly studied problems of neuroendocrinology. The urgency of this problem has increased at the present time with the widespread use in the diagnosis of the non-invasive method of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), as well as with the increase in the number of patients exposed to radiation, surgical, combined exposure due to pituitary adenoma. The term "PTS syndrome" should be understood as the prolapse of the suprasellar tank into the cavity of the Turkish saddle with the pituitary gland spreading along the bottom and walls of the Turkish saddle, accompanied by endocrine, neurological and visual impairment. There are primary (idiopathic) and secondary PTS, which occurs after radiation, surgical and combined methods of treatment of diseases of the chiasm-sellar region. This review will focus mainly on primary PTS syndrome.

Simple Snoring

Background and Objective: Simple snoring affects millions of people and their partners in the world and it indicates increased upper airways resistance and pharyngeal collapsibility. Snoring, particularly loud and habitual, may indicate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Case Report: The presenting patient was a middle-aged man with chief compliant of snoring, who was diagnosed with simple snoring after undergoing an overnight polysomnography (PSG). By using a simple oral appliance that retracted the tongue and improved airway patency, snoring improved completely. Conclusion: Simple snoring is a common condition and after excluding OSA, particularly in suspected patients, it can be managed by some instructions and interventions such as using available oral appliances.

COVID 19 is currently one of the most impacting factors in world society, both because of the ineffectiveness of pharmacological measures and because of socioeconomic inequality. Diabetes is one of the comorbidities that makes the body more vulnerable to the development of severe COVID-19. Diabetes does not increase the patient's risk of becoming infected with the new coronavirus, but it does increase the chances of complications from the infection. This study uses a descriptive and observational methodology of the assertive evolution of the COVID-19 case report. It is a descriptive, exploratory, non-invasive method, with mediated intervention, in a 42-year-old male patient, type 2 diabetic, undergoing pharmacological monitoring and in treatment of lichenoid pityriasis with 500mg tetracycline hydrochloride, on alternate days. During treatment for pityriasis lichenoid, the patient contracted the coronavirus, changing the antibiotic for daily use, resulting in the remission of symptoms after 3 days of medication. This new scenario opens the possibility for clinical and scientific research through randomized studies of the antibiotic tetracycline hydrochloride 500 mg, to investigate its action on the viral replication of the new coronavirus.

Summary One of the methods of treatment of initial stages of dental caries, lesions characterized by demineralization, and white spots on the vestibular surfaces of permanent teeth, is infiltration with liquid resin of low viscosity. It is a non-invasive method which is worth recommending and popularizing among patients. On the basis of available literature the therapeutic method of infiltration with liquid resin of low viscosity is presented. The use of resin of low viscosity allows for obtaining appropriate esthetic and functional appearance of teeth, which is a vital step in improvement of quality of social and professional life of patient.

Abstract: Neuroplasticity research in connection with mental disorders has recently bridged the gap between basic neurobiology and applied neuropsychology. A non-invasive method in the gerbil (Meriones unguiculus) - the restricted versus enriched breading and the systemically applied single methamphetamine dose - offers an experimental approach to investigate psychoses. Acts of intervening affirm an activity dependent malfunctional reorganization in the prefrontal cortex and in the hippocampal dentate gyrus and reveal the dopamine position as being critical for the disruption of interactions between the areas concerned. From the extent of plasticity effects the probability and risk of psycho-cognitive development may be derived. Advance may be expected from insights into regulatory mechanisms of neurogenesis in the hippocampal dentate gyrus which is obviously to meet the necessary requirements to promote psycho-cognitive functions/malfunctions via the limbo-prefrontal circuit.
