El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar el nivel de conocimiento de los estudiantes de Estomatología del ciclo académico 2017-I acerca de la obturación durante el tratamiento endodóntico en la Universidad Privada Antenor Orrego – 2017. Fue un estudio prospectivo, transversal, descriptivo y observacional, se desarrolló en la Clínica Estomatológica de la Universidad Privada Antenor Orrego e incluyo a 132 estudiantes. El nivel de conocimiento de los estudiantes fue evaluado empleando una encuesta, previamente validada (contenido, criterio y constructo) mediante un estudio piloto, con buena confiabilidad (Alpha de Cronbach: 0.720). A los datos recolectados se les aplicó la prueba estadística Chi cuadrado de homogeneidad de poblaciones y se consideró un nivel de significancia del 5 %. Los resultados demostraron que el 33.33% de los estudiantes presentan un nivel de conocimiento malo, el 64.4% presentan un nivel de conocimiento regular y el 2.27% un nivel de conocimiento bueno. Con respecto al sexo y el ciclo, no se encontró diferencia estadística significativa. Concluyendo que los estudiantes presentan un nivel de conocimiento acerca de obturación durante en tratamiento endodóntico regular.The present study aimed to determine the level of knowledge of stomatology students of the academic cycle 2017-I about obturation during endodontic treatment at the Private University Antenor Orrego - 2017.

The Subjective Variation Among Mexican American Identity: A Comparative Analisis Between the Autobiographical Works of Richard Rodriguez and Reyna Grande

The population of people who identify as Mexican American has steadily grown parallel to the increase of Mexican immigration to the United States. Ever since the creation of the racial-social group known as Mexican Americans and their subsequent growth, a vast amount and variety of scholarship has been written on what it means to identify as Mexican American. This essay aims to focus on how childhood experiences and development directly impact one\u27s subjective view of Mexican American identity. Understanding Mexican American identity as a clash of two different cultures, Mexican culture and conventional American culture, this essay will perform an analysis and comparison between the autobiographical works of two Mexican American authors, Richard Rodriguez’s Hunger of Memory (1982) and Reyna Grande’s The Distance Between Us (2012), using a specified array of theories that help define the blending of two different cultures, such as acculturation and transculturation. There will be a specified focus on two aspects of childhood development, education and personal family experiences. The objective of this essay is to demonstrate that Mexican American identity should not be viewed as a singular phenomenon or a type of “common struggle”, but as a subjective personal belief that creates unique points of view of what it means to be Mexican American. One example of this phenomenon that this essay will cover is the differences in political and social opinions among the Mexican American community. A comparison of these two authors will demonstrate how their personal views of Mexican American identity caused them to develop contrasting political and social opinions

ANNUAL REPORT 2002 of the National Ecological Fund

The 2002 Annual Report of the National Ecological Fund (NEF) of the Republic of Moldova describes the Fund’s activities during 2002. The main goal was to make public the information about the Fund’s activity, programmes and achievements in promoting the projects for environmental quality improvement in Republic of Moldova. The Annual Report was prepared as an official document of NEF, by the Fund’s personnel, with support from MECTD experts, who are carrying out the Fund management and by the consultants

Multi-zone cooling/warming garment

A thermodynamically efficient garment for cooling and/or heating a human body. The thermodynamic efficiency is provided in part by targeting the heat exchange capabilities of the garment to specific areas and/or structures of the human body. The heat exchange garment includes heat exchange zones and one or more non-heat exchange zones, where the heat exchange zones are configured to correspond to one or more high density tissue areas of the human body when the garment is worn. A system including the garment can be used to exchange heat with the adjacent HD tissue areas under the control of a feedback control system. Sensed physiological parameters received by the feedback control system can be used to adjust the characteristics of heat exchange fluid moving within the heat exchange garment

Efficacy of Wrist/Palm Warming as an EVA Countermeasure to Maintain Finger Comfort in Cold Conditions During EVA

This study explored the effectiveness of local wrist/palm warming as a potential countermeasure for providing finger comfort during extended duration EVA. Methods: Six subjects (5 males and 1 female) were evaluated in a sagitally divided liquid cooling/warming garment (LCWG) with modified liquid cooling/warming (LCW) gloves in three different experimental conditions. Condition 1: Stage 1- no LCWG; chamber adaptation with LCW glove inlet water temperature 33 C; Stage 2-LCW glove inlet water temperature cooled to 8 C; Stage 3-LCW glove inlet water temperature warmed to 45 C; Condition 2: Stage1-LCWG and LCW glove inlet water temperature 33 C; Stage 2-LCWG inlet temperature cooled to 31 C, LCW gloves, 8 C; Stage 3-LCWG inlet water temperature remains at 31 C, LCW glove inlet water temperature warmed to 45 C; Condition 3: Stage l -LCWG and LCW gloves 33 C; Stage 2-LCWG inlet water temperature cooled to 28 C, LCW gloves, 8 C; Stage 3-LCWG remains at 28 C, LCW glove water temperature warmed to 45 C. Results: Wrist/palm area warming significantly increased finger temperature (Tfing) and blood perfusion in Stage 3 compared to Stage 2. The LCW gloves were most effective in increasing Stage 3 Tfing in Condition 1; and in increasing blood perfusion in Conditions 1 and 2 compared to Condition 3. Ratings of subjective perception of heat in the hand and overall body heat were higher at Stage 3 than Stage 2, with no significant differences across Conditions. Conclusions: Local wrist/palm warming was effective in increasing blood circulation to the distal extremities, suggesting the potential usefulness of this technique for increasing astronaut thermal comfort during EVA while decreasing power requirements. The LCW gloves were effective in heating the highly cooled fingers when the overall body was in a mild heat deficit
