Premières molaires permanentes et variations palatine ou mandibulaire

101 children, each of them with two teleradiographies, were selected. The first X-ray was taken at the time of the mixed dentition, the second one, when the permanent dentition was established. The purpose of the research is to show the oscillations of the palatine and mandibular planes, and their link to the movements of the first permanent molars. The palatine plane is found to swing between - 7° and +5°, with an average of -0.97°. The posterior part of that plane rocks downwards in 51% of the children. The limits are -7° and -1°, with an average of -3.2°. In 22%, the plane rocks upwards between +1° and +5° with an average of +3.1°. In 27% it moves parallel to itself. The posterior part of the mandibular plane varies between -6° and +5°, with an average of -1.1°. It rocks downwards in 48% of the cases, between -6° and -1° with an average of -3.9°. In 22% of the children, this plane rocks upwards between +1° and +5°with an average of +2.5°. In 30%, it moves parallel to itself. The overall result is that the more the posterior part of the palate, or of the mandibule moves downwards, the more the first permanent molars get straight or move forwards.Le but de ce travail est de déterminer les oscillations des plans palatin et mandibulaire ainsi que leur lien avec les mouvements des premières monophysaires. Les téléradiographies, prises à quelques années d’intervalle, de 101 enfants, sont superposés sur le compas ptérygo-clivien. Plus la partie postérieure des lames palatines ou de la mandibule s’abaisse, plus les premières molaires se redressent ou se déplacent vers l’avant

La symphyse mandibulaire. Ses variations transversales au cours de la croissance

The statistical study on transversal variations of fifty children’s symphysae seams to show that symphysae tends to become in harmony with mandible nervous courses, mandible corpus axis and condyle axis.L’étude statistique des variations transversales de la symphyse mentonnière sur cinquante enfants ayant été traités, semble montrer que la symphyse a tendance à s’harmoniser avec les trajets nerveux mandibulaires, l’axe des corpus mandibulaires et l’axe des condyles

Semi-industrial development of nutritious and healthy seafood dishes from sustainable species

This study aimed to devise innovative, tailor-made, appealing, tasty and semi-industrialized dishes, using sustainable and under-utilized seafood species (bib, common dab, common carp, blue mussel and blue whiting), that can meet the specific nutritional and functional needs of children (8-10-years), pregnant women (20-40-years) and seniors (≥60-years). Hence, contests were organised among cooking schools from 6 European countries and the best recipes/dishes were reformulated, semi-industrially produced and chemically and microbiologically evaluated. The dishes intended for: (i) children and pregnant women had EPA + DHA and I levels that reached the target quantities, supporting the claim as “high in I”; and (ii) seniors were “high in protein” (24.8%-Soup_S and 34.0%-Balls_S of the energy was provided by proteins), “high in vitamin B12”, and had Na contents (≤0.4%) below the defined limit. All dishes reached the vitamin D target value. Sausages_C, Roulade_P, Fillet_P and Balls_S had a well-balanced protein/fat ratio. Roulade_P presented the highest n-3 PUFA/n-6 PUFA ratio (3.3), while Sausages_C the lowest SFA/UNS ratio (0.2). Dishes were considered safe based on different parameters (e.g. Hg-T, PBDEs, Escherichia coli). All represent dietary sources contributing to meet the reference intakes of target nutrients (33->100%), providing valuable options to overcome nutritional and functional imbalances of the three groups.This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under Grant Agreement no. 773400 (SEAFOODTOMORROW).

Corrélations symphyse - Pré-maxillaire en norma lateralis

With teleradiographies in norma lateralis incidence, we have carried out measures of symphysa axis, premaxilla axis, Downs mandibular plane, palate plane, and Blocquel’s pterygoclivis compasses. After a correlation study between those different variables, it seems that symphysa and premaxilla should be strougly correlated so that it shoud be a real adaptation of the prehension zone.A l’aide de téléradiographies en norma latéralis, nous avons effectué des mesures entre l’axe de la symphyse, l’axe du pré-maxillaire, le plan mandibulaire de Downs, l’axe des lames palatines secondaires et le compas ptérygoïdien de Blocquel. Après étude corrélative entre ces différentes variables, il semblerait que la symphyse et le pré-maxillaire soient fortement corrélés de telle manière qu’il y ait une adaptation de la zone de préhension

Antioxidant and antimicrobial effect of sea fennel (Crithmum maritimum) in refrigerated Horse mackerel patties

Resumen del póster presentado a la 47th Conference of the West European Fish Technologists' Association (WEFTA), celebrada en Dublin (Irlanda) del 9 al 12 de octubre de 2017.Horse mackerel (Trachurus mediterraneus) is one of the most discarded species in the Mediterranean Sea. This edible fish contains high levels of PUFA and could be used to produce restructured products. Unfortunately, the commercial shelf-life of these products would be limited because of the easy oxidation of PUFA. Halophyte plants are abundant in the coast of Europe and constitute an underutilized source of antioxidants and antimicrobials. These molecules could be introduced as ingredients in restructured products in order to increase the shelf-life under storage at low temperatures. In this study, the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of polyphenolic extracts from different halophyte plants were firstly evaluated. The extract of Criste marine (Crithmun maritimum) showed the highest antioxidant and antimicrobial activity and was incorporated in horse mackerel patties at three different concentrations (0.25, 0.5 and 1% w/w). As well, the entire plant was incorporated in the fish patties as a pulp (5, 10 and 20%, w/w). The fish patties were stored at low temperatures (4°C) for two weeks. Lipid oxidation, antioxidant capacity (FRAP and ABTS assays), color (CIELAB system), pH and microbial growth were studied throughout storage. TBARS quantification showed a significant (p<0.05) inhibition of lipid oxidation induced by either the plant pulp or the polyphenolic extract. This observation corre lates positively with the high FRAP values showed by the products including extract or pulp in comparison with the control patty. The fish patties that showed the highest inhibition of lipid oxidation were those including 20% of pulp. The incorporation of the polyphenolic extract or pulp at the highest concentration delayed microbial growth in the fish patties during seven days of storage and induced growth of LAB. To conclude, this study demonstrates that Criste marine could be used as ingredient in fish patties to increase shelf life.Peer Reviewe
