[Poverty as a determinant of food quality in Argentina. Results of the Argentine Study of Nutrition and Health (EANS)].

Introduction: socio-economic differences lead to food and nutritional inequalities. Diet is a modifiable risk factor by public health activities, on the way to the prevention of chronic non-communicable diseases. Objective: to estimate food inequalities in Argentina based on the socioeconomic level of the population, analyzing the consumption of different food groups.

Main sources of added sugars in Argentina.

The high consumption of added sugars in the diet of the Argentine population and its consequent effect on health are current concerns both at the clinical and public health levels. The objective of this study was to determine the main sources of added sugars in the Argentine diet and to determine the proportional energy contribution of each of them. The sample consisted of 1266 individuals, representative of the country's urban population from 15 to 65 years old, stratified by region, age, gender and socio-economic level.

Total and added sugars consumption in Argentina: Their contribution to daily energy intake. Results from Latin American Study of Nutrition and Health (ELANS).

Aim: The aim of the present study is to determine the intake of total sugars (TS) and added sugars (AS) in Argentina based on the local data of the Latin American Study of Nutrition and Health (ELANS).

Methods: This is a cross-sectional study of a representative sample of the urban Argentine population (n = 1266). The sample was stratified by age group (15-65 years), gender, geographic region and socioeconomic level (SEL).

Use of biomaterials in periradicular surgery: a case report.

This article reports a case of periradicular surgery in which biomaterials, such as mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), human lyophilized bone, and calcium sulfate, were used. A 21-year-old female patient was referred to our endodontic clinic as a result of recurrent episodes of acute exacerbation of a chronic process involving the maxillary left lateral incisor. There was complete destruction of the buccal bone plate at the apical third, leaving this portion of the root exposed to the oral cavity.

Root canal therapy of a maxillary first molar with five root canals: case report.

This paper reports the case of a maxillary left first molar that presented three root canals in the mesiobuccal root. Root canal therapy and case management are described. Features like wide crown access, adequate illumination and use of exploring files where important for successful completion of the endodontic treatment.
