Major depression is one of the most prevalent mental disorders worldwide. Lifetime prevalence rate estimates for major depression range from 10% to 15%. On the basis of a cross-national epidemiologic study, the 12-month prevalence of major depression is 6.5% and the lifetime prevalence is 14.6% in the ten highest income countries. In Japan, the estimated 12-month prevalence of major depression is 2.2% and the lifetime prevalence is 6.6%. This condition incurs a great socioeconomic burden and is associated with serious consequences such as suicide. In Japan, 30,651 people committed suicide […]

Technique for curettage of benign bone tumors

By: | Tags: , ,

Aggressive benign bone tumors require treatment by curettage of the lesion and packing of the cavity with bone grafts or bone cement. Curettage of the pathologic tissue through a wide cortical window is usually mandatory to avoid the risk of local recurrence. However, large cortical removal for creating the window may weaken the bone and increase the risk of fracture. Minimally invasive approaches for the treatment of benign bone tumors have been reported in few articles. Trans-articular arthroscopic excision of benign bone tumors such as chondroblastoma and osteoid osteoma have […]

Canadian Health and Care: Dental treatment

By: | Tags: ,

Endodontically-treated teeth have greater risk of biomechanical complications compared to vital teeth. The loss of structural integrity caused by trauma, caries, access hole preparations, loss of moisture content, and reduced thickness of dentine lead to decreased fracture resistance of such teeth. Endodontic post and core systems have been commonly used to restore the missing part of the tooth structure to prevent fracture of the residual tooth and to improve retention of the final restoration. Since cast metal or prefabricated posts materials affect the amplitude and distribution of stresses in root […]
