Comprehensive assessment of caries resistance in 6 -7 year-old children residing in Poltava and internally displaced children.

Objective: Aim: The aim of this study is to assess caries resistance in children from Poltava and internally displaced children from frontline regions by analyzing caries indicators and oral fluid properties. This will help evaluate the impact of war and displacement on their dental health.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: This study was conducted at the City Children Dental Clinic in Poltava and included 330 children aged 6-7 years, of whom 56.

Increasing the efficiency of dental disease prevention in children of younger school age through participation in a stomatological performance.

Objective: Aim: To study the awareness of children and their parents in the prevention of dental diseases and to propose educational measures to increase it.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: To achieve the goal of the study, a survey of 628 children, aged 7-11 years, younger schoolchildren of Poltava and 479 of their parents was conducted using the previously developed "Dental Questionnaire for Children and Parents". The questionnaire was based on the main indicators of the dental health of children and adolescents in accordance with the EGOHID II project (2008) and the WHO dental questionnaire (2013), and it took into account the proposals of dental organizations that regulate the assessment of oral health in children.

Determination of dysbiosis by the method of multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction in chronic catarrhal gingivitis in children.

Objective: Aim: The aim of the study was to determine the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the microbiota of dento-gingival plaque in children to improve the quality of treatment of chronic catarrhal gingivitis.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: It was examined 16 children aged 9-16 years with a diagnosis of K05.1: chronic gingivitis and 10 persons with intact gums were taken as a comparison group.

Feasibility of Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery Sparing Radiation Therapy for Locally Advanced Lung Cancer.

Efforts to mitigate radiation therapy (RT)-associated cardiotoxicity have focused on constraining mean heart dose. However, recent studies have shown greater predictive power with cardiac substructure dose metrics, such as the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery volume (V) receiving 15 Gy (V15Gy) ≥10%. Herein, we investigated the feasibility of LAD radiation sparing in contemporary intensity modulated RT (IMRT)/volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) lung cancer plans.
