Oral Neoplasms in HIV Positive Patient

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a disease that manifests itself after the human body is infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The virus destroys defense cells (T-CD4 lymphocytes) and an important increase identifier of immunosuppression and/or failure to an immune response, the early signs often appear in the oral cavity in the form of various lesions. With the advent of HAART, it was also observed that it is accompanied by medium- and long-term side effects, mainly metabolic and bone changes. Other clinical manifestations that may occur are the human papillomavirus (HPV) infections in the oral cavity; HPV infections show exophytic growth and are often confluent, showing a “cauliflower” appearance and may or may not correspond to keratinized or non-keratinized tissues. In recent studies on papillomavirus, the literature indicates that HPV 16 and 18 are considered risk factors in the etiology of oral cancer development. Several neoplasias can occur in the oral cavity of patients with AIDS or HIV, and often the oral cavity is the place where we have the first manifestation of the disease, but multidisciplinary follow-up is necessary, so that the patient has care and a better quality of life

Numerical Simulation of Interaction of Hypervelocity Particle Stream with a Target

We present results of direct numerical simulations of impact of hypervelocity particle stream with a target. The stream of interest consists of submillimeter (30-300 micron) brittle ceramic particles. Current supercomputer capabilities make it possible to simulate a realistic size of streams (up to 20 mm in diameter and 500 mm in length) while resolving each particle individually. Such simulations make possible to study the damage of the target from synergistic effects of individual impacts. In our research we fixed the velocity distribution along the axis of the stream (1-4 km/s) and volume fraction of the solid material (1-10%) and study effects of particle size variation, particle and target material properties and surrounding air properties. We ran 3D calibration simulations with up to 10 million individual particles and conducted sensitivity studies with 2D cylindrically symmetric simulations. We used an Eulerian Godunov hydrocode with adaptive mesh refinement. The particles, target material and air are represented with volume-of-fluid approach. Brittle particle and target material has been simulated with pressure-dependent yield strength and Steinberg model has been used for metal targets. Simulations demonstrated penetration depth and a hole diameter similar to experimental observations and can explain the influence of parameters of the stream on the character of the penetration

Fundamental experimentation and theoretical modeling for prevention of molten aluminum-water steam explosions in casting pits

Explosive interactions between molten aluminum and water are being studied with a focus on fundamentals to determine what causes robust-enough triggers for explosion onset, to determine the extent of protection provided from various coatings and to develop a novel methodology for prevention. The workscope includes experimentation and mathematical modeling of the interactions between molten metals and water at various different coated and uncoated surfaces. Phenomenological issues related to surface wettability, gas generation from coatings, charring of coatings, inertial constraint, melt temperature, water temperature, external shocks are being investigated systematically to gage their relative impact on triggerability of surface-assisted steam explosion. The steam explosion triggering studies (SETS) facility was designed and constructed as a rapid-turnaround, cost-effective, and safe means to address these phenomenological issues and to derive quantitative, practically-fundamental data for situations covering melt masses relocating over submerged surfaces ranging from a few grams to {approximately} 1,000 kg. Initial testing has provided insightful results which are very consistent with empirical field observations taken over the past 40 years. This paper provides the scientific basis of the technical approach for design and operation of the SETS facility, along with key results and insights from tests conducted so far

Tratamiento ortopédico funcional de los maxilares y ortodóntico en paciente con síndrome del cromosoma X- frágil. Reporte de caso

The Fragile-X Syndrome (FXS) is a disorder linked to X chromosome, on the long arm Xq27.3, causing several changes such as behavioral problems, intellectual disability, macroorchidism, large and prominent auricles, deep and ogival palate, mandibular prognathism, increased mandibular angle, malocclusion, and dental anomalies. The objective was to present a case of a 16-year-old patient with FXS, leukoderma, submitted to orthopedic functional maxillary treatment to correct dental crowding. In general, clinical examination, behavioral changes such as shyness, anxiety, emotional lability, sporadic disturbances of behavior associated with mild mental disabilities were remarkable. After panoramic radiographic evaluation and cephalometric tracings, it was decided to install the functional orthopedic appliance of the jaws, Indirect Flat Planes type, for later corrective orthodontic treatment. At beginning of treatment, there was a difficulty in understanding and collaborating, not only from the patient’s side but also from the mother’s. After five months, even with the improvement in stomatognathic functions, orthodontic treatment with a fixed appliance was started, which was concluded after two years. Success of functional and / or orthodontic jaw orthopedics treatment, especially in FXS, is based on behavioral approach and motivation in all stages, by the professional as well as a collaborative family environment.El síndrome X frágil (SXF) es un trastorno ligado al cromosoma X, en el brazo largo Xq27.3, que provoca diversas alteraciones como problemas de conducta, deficiencia intelectual, macroorquidia, pabellones auditivos grandes y prominentes, paladar profundo y ojival, prognatismo mandibular, maloclusión y anomalías dentarias. El objetivo de este informe fue presentar el caso clínico de una paciente de 16 años con SXF, leucodermia, que se sometió a un tratamiento ortopédico funcional de los maxilares para la corrección del apiñamiento dentario. En el examen clínico se observaron timidez, ansiedad, inestabilidad emocional, trastornos conductuales esporádicos asociados a discapacidad intelectual leve, alteraciones craneofaciales y oclusales. Luego del estudio, evaluación radiográfica panorámica y trazados cefalométricos, se decidió instalar un dispositivo ortopédico funcional de maxilar, tipo Pistas Planas Indirectas, para posterior tratamiento ortodóncico correctivo. Bien al inicio del tratamiento se observó dificultad de comprensión y colaboración por parte de la paciente y su responsable (madre) y, luego de 5 meses, aún con mejoras en las funciones estomatognáticas, se inició el tratamiento ortodóntico con dispositivo fijo, el que fue concluido luego de dos años. El éxito del tratamiento de ortopedia funcional de los maxilares y/u ortodóntico, principalmente en el SXF, se basa en el abordaje comportamental y motivación en todas las etapas del tratamiento por el profesional, así como en un ambiente familiar colaborativo
