Adaptation and Psychometric Properties of the Spanish Version of Child and Youth Resilience Measure (CYRM-32).

Resilience is defined as a dynamic process that entails a positive adaptation to contexts of adversity. According to the ecological model, resilient behavior emerges as a result of the interaction between individual, relational, community and cultural variables. The Child and Youth Resilience Measure (CYRM-28), developed in Canada and based on the ecological model, has been validated in several countries.

Clinical and microbiological comparison of three non-surgical protocols for the initial treatment of chronic periodontitis.

Objective: To compare the clinical and microbiological effects of three protocols for nonsurgical periodontal therapy, including full-mouth scaling and root planing plus systemic antibiotics, on the treatment of chronic periodontitis patients.

Methods: Twenty-nine patients diagnosed with moderate to severe chronic periodontitis, selected according to specific criteria, were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: quadrant scaling, full-mouth scaling, and full-mouth scaling supplemented by systemic antibiotics. Antibiotic selection was based on the results of individual susceptibility testing.
