Relevance. The authors have established that the microbiological and local risk factors prevail in changing the clinical condition of the periodontium. Aim – сlinical and diagnosis argumentation of the gingival tissue condition according to the criteria of the New International Classification of Periodontal and Peri-implant Diseases and Conditions and Proceedings of the 2017 World Workshop jointly held together by the American Association of Periodontology (AAP) and the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP).Materials and methods. Clinical and laboratory assessment of 105 young patients was conducted. Three patient groups were formed according to the detected risk factor and according to the data of the New International Classification of Periodontal and Peri-implant Diseases and Conditions. The main group consisted of 70 (66.6%) patients with diagnosed chronic plaque-induced gingivitis (33.3%) and initial periodontitis (33.3%) (mild chronic periodontitis). The control group comprised 35 patients with clinically healthy gingiva on an intact periodontium (71.1%) and reduced periodontium (22.9%). Periodontal pathogens as a risk factor were assessed by PCR using DNA-express commercial sets (Liteh, LLC, scientific manufacturing company, Russia). Cytology of the gingival crevicular fluid impression smears stained by Romanovsky-Giemsa method was performed.Results. Changes in the hygiene and periodontal indices were revealed on full dental examination. PCR detected low or critical number of periodontal pathogens in the studied samples. Neutrophilic leukocytes, histiocytes and epithelial cells were present in the impression smears, polymorphonyclear neutrophils significantly increased and macrophages, histiocytes, epithelial cells appeared; macrophages decreased.Conclusion. Full dental examination and laboratory tests revealed the following clinical conditions: clinically healthy gingiva on an intact periodontium, clinically healthy gingiva on a reduced periodontium, plaque-induced gingivitis, stage I periodontitis – initial periodontitis, which corresponded to the New International Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases and Conditions and Proceedings of the 2017 World Workshop held by the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) and the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP).

Background: End stage renal disease (ESRD) is a well-recognized risk factor for development of sudden cardiac arrest(SCA). There is limited data on outcomes after an in-hospital SCA event in ESRD patients. Methods: Data were obtained from National Inpatient Sample from January 2007 to December 2017. In-hospital SCA was identified using International Classification of Disease, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification, and International Classification of Disease, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification codes of 99.60, 99.63, and 5A12012. ESRD patients were subsequently identified using codes of 585.6 and N18.6. Propensity -matched analysis using logistic regression with SD caliper of 0.2 was used to match patients with and without ESRD. Crude and propensity-matched (PS) cohorts outcomes were calculated. Results: A total of 1,412,985 patients sustained in-hospital SCA during our study period. ESRD patients with in-hospital SCA were younger and had a higher burden of key co-morbidities. Mortality was similar in ESRD and non-ESRD patients in PS matched cohort (70.4% vs. 70.7%, p = 0.45, figure 1) with an overall downward trend over our study years (figure 2). Conclusion: In the context of in-hospital SCA, mortality is similar in ESRD and non-ESRD patients in adjusted analysis. Adequate risk factor modification could further mitigate the risk of in-hospital SCA among ESRD patients

ABSTRACT Objective To assess the presence of bruxism and anxiety among military firefighters with frequent episodic tension-type headache and painful temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). Methods The sample consisted of 162 individuals aged 18 to 55 years divided into four groups. Headache was diagnosed in accordance with the International Classification of Headache Disorders-III. The Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders questionnaire was used to classify TMDs and awake bruxism; sleep bruxism was diagnosed in accordance with the International Classification of Sleep Disorders-3; and anxiety was classified using the Beck Anxiety Inventory. In statistical models, a significance level of 95% was used. The chi-square test was used to assess anxiety. Results Associations were found among frequent episodic tension-type headache, painful TMDs, awake bruxism and anxiety (p < 0.0005). Sleep bruxism was not a risk factor (p = 0.119) except when associated with awake bruxism (p = 0.011). Conclusion Anxiety and awake bruxism were independent risk factors for developing frequent episodic tension-type headache associated with painful TMDs; only awake bruxism was a risk factor for frequent episodic tension-type headache with non-painful TMDs.

Purpose Children with a cleft palate (± cleft lip; CP±L) can have difficulties communicating and participating in daily life, yet speech-language pathologists typically focus on speech production during routine assessments. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health: Children and Youth Version (ICF-CY; World Health Organization, 2007 ) provides a framework for holistic assessment. This tutorial describes holistic assessment of children with CP±L illustrated by data collected from a nonclinical sample of seven 2- to 3-year-old children, 13 parents, and 12 significant others (e.g., educators and grandparents). Method Data were collected during visits to participants' homes and early childhood education and care centers. Assessment tools applicable to domains of the ICF-CY were used to collect and analyze data. Child participants' Body Functions including speech, language, and cognitive development were assessed using screening and standardized assessments. Participants' Body Structures were assessed via oral motor examination, case history questionnaires, and observation. Participants' Activities and Participation as well as Environmental and Personal Factors were examined through case history questionnaires, interviews with significant others, parent report measures, and observations. Results Valuable insights can be gained from undertaking holistic speech-language pathology assessments with children with CP±L. Using multiple tools allowed for triangulation of data and privileging different viewpoints, to better understand the children and their contexts. Several children demonstrated speech error patterns outside of what are considered cleft speech characteristics, which underscores the importance of a broader assessment. Conclusion Speech-language pathologists can consider incorporating evaluation of all components and contextual factors of the ICF-CY when assessing and working with young children with CP±L to inform intervention and management practices.

Zusammenfassung. Hintergrund: Nach 12 Jahren Entwicklung wird die 11. Version der International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) von der Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) im Januar 2022 in Kraft treten. Methodik: Im Rahmen eines selektiven Übersichtsartikels werden die Veränderungen im Hinblick auf die Klassifikation von Angststörungen von der ICD-10 zur ICD-11 zusammenfassend dargestellt. Ergebnis: Die diagnostischen Kriterien der generalisierten Angststörung, Agoraphobie und spezifischen Phobien werden angepasst. Die ICD-11 wird auf Basis einer Lebenszeitachse neu organisiert, sodass die kindesaltersspezifischen Kategorien der ICD-10 aufgelöst werden. Die Trennungsangststörung und der selektive Mutismus werden damit den „regulären“ Angststörungen zugeordnet und können zukünftig auch im Erwachsenenalter diagnostiziert werden. Neu ist ebenso, dass verschiedene Symptomdimensionen der Angst ohne kategoriale Diagnose verschlüsselt werden können. Diskussion: Die Veränderungen im Bereich der Angsterkrankungen umfassen verschiedene Aspekte und sind in der Gesamtschau nicht unerheblich. Positiv zu bewerten ist die Einführung einer Lebenszeitachse und Parallelisierung mit dem Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Schlussfolgerungen: Die entwicklungsbezogene Neuorganisation in der ICD-11 wird auch eine verstärkte längsschnittliche Betrachtung von Angststörungen in der Klinik sowie Forschung zur Folge haben. Damit rückt insbesondere die Präventionsforschung weiter in den Fokus.

Zusammenfassung. Der Beitrag informiert über die Eingliederung der Suchtstörungen in die 11. Auflage der International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) der Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO). Die Revision der ICD soll einem gewandelten Verständnis der Suchtstörungen und deren Diagnostik Rechnung tragen und die klinische Anwendbarkeit vereinfachen. Im Bereich der substanzbezogenen und nicht substanzbezogenen Störungen sind gegenüber der Vorgängerversion erhebliche Neuerungen eingeführt worden. Die wichtigsten Änderungen betreffen ein erweitertes Angebot an Stoffklassen, deutliche (vereinfachende) Anpassungen in den konzeptuellen und diagnostischen Leitlinien der substanzbezogenen Störungsbilder und insbesondere der „Abhängigkeit“, sowie die Einführung der Kategorie der „abhängigen Verhaltensweisen“ und damit verbunden die Zuordnung der „Glücksspielstörung“ zu den Suchtstörungen sowie die Aufnahme der neuen (bildschirmbezogenen) „Spielstörung“. Zudem findet eine Erweiterung der diagnostischen Optionen für frühe, präklinische Phänotypen der Suchtstörungen („Episodisch Schädlicher Gebrauch“) erstmals Eingang in den ICD-Katalog. Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden die Änderungen Episodisch schädlicher Gebrauch für den Bereich der Suchtstörungen aus kinder- und jugendpsychiatrischer Sicht zusammenfassend dargestellt und diskutiert.
