The article is devoted to treatment methods of young patients with class II malocclusion suffering from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. The authors proposed the improved treatment plan for the studied patients, which implies three stages: the first is a comprehensive functional analysis of the dental-maxillofacial system using digital technologies, the second one is the design, milling, manufacturing of occlusal overlays that allow to control occlusal plane slope and the last one is overlays luting and subsequent treatment with the help of aligners in order to normalize the relationship of the upper and lower teeth in three perpendicular planes with of retrusion control achieving. The described treatment method is disclosed in a clinical example.

✓The relationship of age to clinical and pathological findings was analyzed in 109 adult patients operated on because of chronic subdural hematoma. A well-formed membrane on the inner and outer surface of the hematoma was used as the criterion for chronicity of the hematoma. Younger patients had more evidence of increased intracranial pressure; older patients had more evidence of mental deterioration and pyramidal tract lesions. The interval from trauma to operation was shorter in the young patients. The thickness of the hematoma as measured from angiograms increased with the age of the patient. The cause of this difference is discussed.

ABSTRACT Introduction: A reasonable exposure of incisors and gingival tissues is generally considered more attractive than excess or lack of exposure. A reasonable gingival exposure is considered to be around 0 to 2 mm when smiling and 2-4 mm exposure of the maxillary incisor edge when the lips are at rest. Objective: The aim of this paper is to present the Functional Aesthetic Occlusal Plane (FAOP), which aims to help in the diagnosis of the relationships established among molars, incisors and the upper lip. Conclusion: FAOP can complement an existing and established orthodontic treatment plan, facilitating the visualization of functional and aesthetic demands by giving a greater focus on the position of incisors in the relationship established among the incisors, molars and the upper lip stomion.

Healthy relationship among the buyer and supplier is the only way to remain competitive in the incentive market. It is the only way to retain the business and the customers. If buyer and supplier are not having this partnership then they might not be enjoying the best outcomes.The objective of this thesis is to examine the core factors that dictate buyer (Super Market) and Supplier (Distributor) relationship in retail industry. In this research, aspects has been studied that could have affected or affects the relationship of buyer & supplier in positive or negative manner. The research has covered the retail market and will be dictating the key aspects of maintaining the healthy buyer and supplier relationships. This will be helping the retail owners and retail brands to gain the competitive edge from others and always remain ahead. This research will help both the stakeholders of this industry to maintain healthy relationships between them and indicates them that what the issues that create problems between them are.The thesis employed an empirical approach designed in three stages; aggregate and firm level analysis using official data, firm level analysis using survey and finally case studies aimed at providing deeper insights into the underlying issues observed in the survey findings. Three literature strands were adopted: spillover, cluster and network dynamics.

In order to get brittle shear characteristics of rock material, acoustic emission accompanied with triaxial stress-strain test was applied to monitor the emergence and development of micro cracks. Theoretical analysis and data processing were conducted based on the theories of fracture mechanics and general rock mechanics, relations between the feature strength of three stages and the stress state were obtained, and a method was put forward for analyzing the brittle shear failure of rock material. The relationship of the Mohr-Coulomb strength theory, Griffith strength theory and Hoek-Brown criterion with the brittle-shear strength model were established. Strength analysis of mixed granite in Shuichang slope was carried out by the brittle shear failure model, and the theoretical value and experimental value has a good consistency.

Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spread rapidly all over the world, causing a pandemic. Neurological findings have also been reported in patients since the beginning of the pandemic. Recent data suggest that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has both neurotropic and neurovirulent effects. This study aimed to evaluate the presence of neurological findings in hospitalized patients with the diagnosis of COVID-19 and the relationship of these findings with the severity of COVID-19. Material and Methods: Patients, positive for SARS-CoV-2 and had an indication of hospitalization were included in the study. Demographic characteristics, systemic symptoms, laboratory values and computed chest tomography findings of the patients were recorded. Neurological findings of the patients were evaluated by an experienced neurologist, and the relationship between these findings and the disease severity was analyzed. Results: The median age of 66 patients (33 females, 33 males) included in the study was 34.5. Of the patients, 33 (50%) had mild, 28 (42.4%) had moderate, 5 (7.6%) had severe COVID-19. The most common symptom was fever (48.5%). At least one neurologic symptom was detected in 43 patients (65.2%). Dysgeusia (27.3%), hyposmia-anosmia (27.3%), headache (25.8%) and muscle pain (24.2%) were the most common neurological symptoms. Among mild COVID-19 patients, individuals with neurological symptoms had longer hospitalization periods, than the patients without neurological symptoms (p=0.017). Conclusion: Neurological symptoms were observed in the majority of patients with COVID-19 in this study. Besides this study revealed that neurological symptoms may occur not only in aged intensive care patients with COVID-19, but also in young patients, with mild COVID-19. Therefore the hospitalization period may be prolonged in this patient group. In conclusion, regardless of its severity, physicians should keep in mind that COVID-19 may be a potential risk factor for neurological disorders.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the skeletal and dentoalveolar effects and optimal timing for treatment of class II malocclusion with functional appliances in children and adolescents.A group of 30 patients with class II malocclusion were divided into 3 groups according to their use of functional appliance: Twin block, Activator, Fränkel appliance. The group was also divided into 2 groups according to the cervical vertebrae maturation method. Lateral cephalometric radiographs were analyzed pretreatment (T0) and posttreatment (T1). Among the functional appliances, treatment with Twin block and Activator showed significant increase in the length of the mandible (Co-Gn) and the lower anterior facial height (ANS to Me), whereas the overjet and overbite were significantly reduced. Treatment with Fränkel appliance showed significant improvement in the relationship of maxilla and mandible. In addition, if the functional appliance was used during the period of pubertal growth peak, there was a significant increase in mandibular length, improvement in the relationship of maxilla and mandible, labial inclination of lower incisors and decrease in overjet compared to the treatment before pubertal growth peak. Therefore, this study indicates that using functional appliances for patients with class II malocclusion is effective and the optimal timing for using functional appliances is during pubertal growth peak.
