Objective: To evaluate whether the presence of dental caries in the primary anterior teeth of 1- and 2-year-old babies can predict the occurrence of severe dental caries in the primary posterior teeth of these children after a 3-year follow-up.
Methodology: This cohort study was carried out with 99 children and their guardians who were assessed at the beginning of the study and reassessed after 3 years. Severe caries in posterior tooth at the 3-year follow-up is the dependent variable.

The experiment involved 120 male broilers divided into 40 battery brooders, each housing 3 birds. Post 7-day acclimatisation with a corn and soybean-based diet, the birds were provided with one of four diets: a corn and soybean meal-based diet (CON), a mix incorporating 15% Spirulina (SP), a Spirulina-rich mix supplemented with 0.
