The mandibular fracture resulting from inferior third molars exodontia is considered an uncommon complication. This iatrogenesis, although rare, can occur during the surgery or after. Therefore, it is of fundamental importance that the risk factors such as position, shape, and volume of the tooth are identified during surgical planning and minimized on the transoperative. When bone fracture exists, it requires a fast diagnosis and treatment, avoiding higher morbidity to the patient.

Introduction: Neck circumference (NC) has been used as an anthropometric measure to estimate cardiometabolic risk. Objective: To verify whether NC is able to assist in the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Methods: The sample consisted of 60 patients of both gender. mean age 62.6±11.7 years. Shapiro-Wilk. non-paired t test. Mann-Whitney (p<0.05). Pearson and Spearman correlations were used for statistical analysis. Results: The NC values were. for men (37.1±3 cm) and women (33.1±2.49 cm) and waist circumference (WC) in men (95.3±0.69 cm) and women (91.3±9.61 cm).

Increasingly, wind electric generation is becoming indispensable to complement the global energy matrix. In this way, it is necessary to develop forecasting methods for this type of renewable resource, in order to guarantee the appropriate use to be compatible with the needs of the electricity sector. In this paper, two hybrid models are proposed that combine Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average methodologies (ARIMA) with that of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to forecast time series of daily average wind speeds from data collected at 10 meters.

Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS) is a rare, severe complication caused by a reactivation of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) from the geniculate ganglion, nucleus of the sensory root of the facial nerve that results in peripheral facial weakness as well as rash around the ear. Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) has been used against herpesviruses. It also improves facial nerves that were previously impaired and hence, facial movements.

Objetivo: Relatar um caso de um paciente com diminuição da amplitude de movimento (ADM) causada por queimadura atendido no estágio de fisioterapia em saúde coletiva de uma instituição de ensino superior do maranhão. Detalhamento do Caso: Trata-se de um paciente do sexo masculino, 45 anos de idade, procurou o atendimento de fisioterapia com queimadura de 1° e 2° grau decorrente de acidente de trabalho, totalizando 14% da superfície corporal queimada.

Earth constructions have been used for millennia by humanity, with an immeasurable accumulation of knowledge to be explored. However, in the last 150 years this material has been systematically replaced by chemically altered industrial materials that are responsible for great environmental pollution, inert waste generation and irresponsible consumption of natural resources.

A adolescência é uma fase de grandes transformações tanto físicas quanto emocionais. Nesse período, o indivíduo está consolidando sua identidade, experimentando várias descobertas e conflitos. Este estudo visa compreenderos comportamentos e a personalidade do adolescente na atualidade, afim de orientar os responsáveise profissionais da saúdepara as diferentes necessidades nesse estágio da vida. Foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica em livros e artigos científicos, utilizando as palavras-chave: adolescente, comportamento e personalidade.

Presently, globalization is causing companies to be more competitive, and one of the ways this can be achieved is through the use of Open Innovation Projects (OIPs). Although considerable research has been devoted to Open Innovation (OI), rather less attention has been paid to how the OIP sponsor deals with limited resources to implement the requirements of the OIP. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the concerns and challenges that the sponsor has in supporting the requirements engineering (RE) process to meet the OIP requirements.

In this article, we present the use of an implicit method for simulating reduced combustion mechanisms of methanol and ethanol. The Rosenbrock method was used to obtain the result with greater stability in the simulation of the ODE system obtained through the reduced mechanisms. In the numerical results, some simulations are presented for the reduced mechanisms of methanol and ethanol.

This study aimed to analyze companies' perceptions about the use of social media and models of customer service processes. Data were collected in two stages, June 2019 and March 2020, resulting in 182 and 256 respondents. The collection in two steps aimed to confront the data on the Sars-CoV-2 pandemic occasion, which forced an abrupt halt in the operation of companies. We conducted this study out using the quantitative survey method.
