Parental Education From Pregnancy To Birth: a Questionnaire-based Study on Promoting Oral Health and the Prevalence of Habits in Childhood Compared with Socioeconomic Factors.

Aim: Maintaining oral health and preventing dental caries are crucial for overall well-being and quality of life, especially during childhood. Parental knowledge and practices play a key role in shaping children's oral health. This pilot study investigates parental knowledge and attitudes towards children's oral health and preventive practices.

Three-Dimensional Dental Analysis in Subjects with Skeletal Malocclusion: A Retrospective Observational Study.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between skeletal class and dental dimensions analyzed through linear, surface area, and volumetric measurements. The sample consisted of 90 patients with an average age of 18 years (44 > x > 12). The following tests were used to investigate any correlation between skeletal class and tooth size: Hoeffding's test, Cramér's V test, and analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Tukey's post hoc HSD test and the logit model.

Hippocampal subfields volumes and affective symptoms of patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy.

Background: Hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is the most frequent neuropathological finding in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE-HS), leading to hippocampal atrophy due to neuronal loss and gliosis. Anxiety and depression are highly prevalent in drug-resistant MTLE-HS patients, but their neuroanatomical correlates remain unclear. This study investigates the independent association between affective symptoms and hippocampal subfield volumes in unilateral MTLE-HS.

Craniofacial and Dental Anomalies of a Patient Carrying Two MicroRNA Variants: A Proof-Of-Concept Case Report.

Craniofacial and dentofacial anomalies often result from disruptions in embryogenetic processes driven by genetic alterations. Dental development involves complex interactions between coding and non-coding genes, orchestrated by a network of signaling pathways. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) has identified genes, particularly in the WNT signaling pathway, associated with dental anomalies.

Social representations of HIV and healthcare among recently diagnosed youth.

Objective: To understand the social representations of HIV and their repercussions for the healthcare among recently diagnosed youth.

Methods: This qualitative research was conducted within PrEP15-19, a study that analyzed the effectiveness of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis in adolescents aged 15 to 19 years. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine participants, of whom eight identified themselves as gay men and one as travesti.
