Pathological mandibular fracture complicated by osteonecrosis in an adult patient with pycnodysostosis: clinical report and review of the literature.

Pycnodysostosis is an ultra-rare osteosclerotic skeletal disorder characterized by short stature, susceptibly to fractures, acroosteolysis of the distal phalanges, and craniofacial features (frontal bossing, prominent nose, obtuse mandibular angle, micrognathia). Dental abnormalities (delayed eruption of teeth, hypodontia, malocclusion, dental crowding, persistence of deciduous teeth, enamel hypoplasia, and increased caries) are also frequent; due to bone metabolism alteration, the patients have an increased risk for jaw osteomyelitis, especially after tooth extraction or mandible fracture. Other complications are obstructive sleep apnea, endocrine alterations and cytopenia.

Monitoring Volatile Organic Compounds and Aroma Profile of L. Honey at Different Storage Temperatures during Shelf Life.

Bee honey has different volatile organic compound profiles that depend on the botanical origin and the state of conservation and which are mainly responsible for its specific aroma. During honey storage, the profile of these molecules and other indicators, such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and the diastatic index, can change depending on temperature and time. This study analyzed the variations that these parameters in acacia honey stored at three different temperatures for a total period of 550 days, using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry and an electronic nose equipped with 10 different sensors.

Influence of the Physical State of Two Monofloral Honeys on Sensory Properties and Consumer Satisfaction.

Honey is a worldwide known and appreciated food product. Its appreciation by consumers is due to both its nutritional properties and the extremely reduced processing. The floral origin, color, aroma and taste are key factors in determining the quality of honey.

Large Gartner cyst of the posterior vaginal fornix.

International classifications of congenital anomalies do not extensively describe vaginal cysts. For this reason, clinicians who deal with such conditions can only rely on their personal or other colleague's experience, and only a few case reports are present in the literature. This paper illustrates the clinical scenario due to a particular Gartner cyst, the diagnostic workup followed for its diagnosis and its surgical management.
