Fractures of the mandibular condyles are frequent in facial traumas and their treatment represents a highly controversial issue in maxillofacial traumatology, functional and surgical treatments being the two principal management modalities for such fractures. The aim of this study is to evaluate the results of functional treatment of mandibular condylar fractures in patients which received this type of treatment. Eighty-six patients between 6 and 66 years old who were previously treated fuctionally for a fracture of the mandible condyle were recalled for follow up examination with a mean postoperative observation time of 10.4 years. Mandibular function was assessed using the mandibular function impairment questionnaire and patient's complaints were assessed during physical examination. The results showed a significant increase of dysfunction index values with increasing age at the time of trauma. Radiologic abnormalities such as reduced ramus height, deviation of the mandibular midline, and irregular shape of the condyle were observed and seen frequently, but they were not correlated with the severity of dysfunction. Predictors of mandibular function impairment after closed treatment of fractures of the mandibular condyle were: great deviation, reduced mouth opening, women gender, and increased age. The results of this study support the opinion that functional treatment is sufficient in pediatric patients, whereas in older age groups the results of conservative treatment are less sufficient

Research summary
تتناول هذه الدراسة تقييم فعالية المعالجة الوظيفية لكسور لقمة الفك السفلي، وهي من الإصابات الشائعة في حالات الرضوح الوجهية. تم استدعاء 86 مريضًا تتراوح أعمارهم بين 6 و66 عامًا، والذين خضعوا سابقًا لمعالجة وظيفية لهذه الكسور، لإجراء فحص متابعة بعد فترة متابعة متوسطة بلغت 10.4 سنوات. تم تقييم وظيفة الفك السفلي باستخدام استبيان خلل الوظيفة، بينما تم تقييم شكاوى المرضى من خلال الفحص الطبي. أظهرت النتائج زيادة ملحوظة في قيم مشعر الخلل الوظيفي مع التقدم في العمر عند وقوع الإصابة. كما لوحظت شذوذات شعاعية مثل قصر في ارتفاع الرأد، وانحراف الخط الناصف للفك السفلي، والشكل غير المنتظم للقم الفكية، لكنها لم تكن مترابطة مع شدة الخلل الوظيفي. كانت المنبئات لخلل وظيفة الفك السفلي بعد المعالجة الوظيفية هي الانحراف الجسيم، التحدد في فتحة الفم، جنس الإناث، والتقدم في العمر. تدعم نتائج هذه الدراسة الآراء التي تعتبر المعالجة الوظيفية كافية عند الأطفال، بينما تكون غير كافية في الأعمار المتقدمة.
Critical review
دراسة نقدية: تعتبر هذه الدراسة مهمة لأنها تقدم تقييمًا طويل الأجل لفعالية المعالجة الوظيفية لكسور لقمة الفك السفلي، وهو موضوع يثير الكثير من الجدل في مجال طب الرضوح الوجهية. ومع ذلك، يمكن أن تكون هناك بعض النقاط التي تحتاج إلى مزيد من التوضيح. أولاً، لم يتم توضيح كيفية اختيار العينة بشكل دقيق، مما قد يؤثر على تعميم النتائج. ثانيًا، الدراسة تعتمد بشكل كبير على التقييم الذاتي للمرضى، والذي قد يكون غير دقيق في بعض الأحيان. أخيرًا، لم يتم مقارنة النتائج مع مجموعة ضابطة خضعت للمعالجة الجراحية، مما يجعل من الصعب تحديد فعالية المعالجة الوظيفية بشكل مستقل.
Questions related to the research
  1. ما هي الفئات العمرية التي شملتها الدراسة؟

    شملت الدراسة مرضى تتراوح أعمارهم بين 6 و66 عامًا.

  2. ما هي المنبئات لخلل وظيفة الفك السفلي بعد المعالجة الوظيفية؟

    المنبئات هي الانحراف الجسيم، التحدد في فتحة الفم، جنس الإناث، والتقدم في العمر.

  3. هل كانت هناك علاقة بين الشذوذات الشعاعية وشدة الخلل الوظيفي؟

    لا، لم تكن الشذوذات الشعاعية مترابطة مع شدة الخلل الوظيفي.

  4. ما هي الفئة العمرية التي تعتبر المعالجة الوظيفية كافية لها؟

    تعتبر المعالجة الوظيفية كافية للأطفال، بينما تكون غير كافية في الأعمار المتقدمة.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability of a single malleable noncommpression titanium miniplate in fixation and stability of fractures of the mandibular angle using two approaches(.transbuccal and intra-oral approach, or intra-or ally alone) . The research sample included 20 patients from patients who attended AL Assad University Hospital with Unilateral or bilateralun-comminuted mandibular angle fractures in the period between September 2011 and October 2013. The research sample was divided into two groups depending on the two approaches that have been used . Adequacy of the reduction and stability of fixation were evaluated through Radiographic examinations immediately after surgery. Postoperative assessment was based on clinical examination after 1 month, 6 monthes and a year to evaluate: Occlusion, Masticatory efficiency, Maximum mouth opening range, and Other complications(infection –mini-plate exposure). The results of the present study showed that there were statistical difference between the two approaches(transbuccal and intra-oral approach, or intra-orally alone) regarding Occlusion, Masticatory efficiency and Other complications after 1 and 6 months while there was no statistical difference between the approaches after 1 year . we Concluded that using the combined transbuccal/oral approach was the best regarding(infection and mini-plate exposure) and compared with intra-oral approach .
The study covered 30 cases of patellar fractures in persons who were accepted and treated surgically at Al-Assad University Hospital in Lattakia from 2008 to 2013.Ages of patients ranged between 16-70 years. Average load of clinical and radial conti nuation was six months. The smaller age of traumatism amounted 16 years and larger age 70 years; average load of age was 37.66 years. The number of traumatism in male was amounted 12 and female 18. In estimating the results, we depend on Lysholm scale scoring. Functional results were studied after 6 months and we had excellent result in 27% of cases and good results in 47% of other cases
This study is concerned in the long relation between monetary policy variable and Damascus stock exchange (DSE) index, In general, monetary policy transmission can affect the markets, so the stock market also effected by that, and this study is in terested in this relation, so it start by made theoretical introduction about how can monetary variables effect the stock market index, then it follow the statistical methodology by use Autoregressive-Distributed Lag model (ARDL) to estimate the relation between independents variables which are money supply M1,M2,exchange rate EX, interest rate I, inflation INF, and dependent variables which is DSE index (M_I) The result, by using the Unrestricted error correction model (UECM) shows that there is positive relation in short and long term between money supply (M1) and DSE index, but it was and negative one in short term between M2 and DSE index, and became a positive in long term, and the relation was negative between inflation and DSE index in short and long term. There was a negative one with exchange rate in short and long term, and also negative one with interest rate. As conclusion, it should be necessary to improve the behavior of monetary policy to control all this variable in the way that made it has positive effects on DSE index.
IMF serves as a cornerstone during surgeries related to reconstruction orthognathic and facial trauma surgery. Successful treatment of mandibular fractures depends on reduction and restoration of normal occlusion and immobilization. So this study attempts to evaluate dental root damage through intermaxillary fixation with pre-drilled bone screws in the management of non-displacement or mini-displacement mandibular fractures. Complications were observed clinically and radiologically to evaluate the damage and loss vital to the adjacent tooth root. Data were subjected to statistical analysis using Chi Square Test. P-Value<0.05 was considered significant .This study found out that the intermaxillary fixation screws proved to be a safe technique to the intermaxillary fixation; however, it is not without complications or potential consequences which the surgeon must be aware of in order to provide safe and effective treatment.
Aging populations have posed a challenge to many countries including Taiwan, and with them come the issue of long-term care. Given the current context, the aim of this study was to explore the hotly-discussed subtopics in the field of long-term care, and identify its features through NLP. This study applied TF-IDF, the Logistic Regression model, and the Naive Bayes classifier to process data. In sum, the results showed that it reached a best F1-score of 0.920 in identification, and a best accuracy of 0.708 in classification. The results of this study could be used as a reference for future long-term care related applications.
