The authors present the main sexually transmitted diseases and point out the important role of the ancillary staff in their prophylaxis and control. Efficiency in this field depends highly on the team within, which the ancillary staff is organically integrated, besides the physicians. The paper insists on the conditions under which these diseases appear, the necessity of epidemiologic investigation, recording and compulsory treatment under medical surveillance. Irrespective of their specialty, the ancillary staff have an important role in the prevention and control of sexually-transmitted diseases.

Introduction: Early childhood caries (ECC), dental cavities in children younger than 6 years, is common, consequential, and inequitably concentrated among socially disadvantaged children. The World Health Organization and authoritative clinical and public health agencies promote 4 chronic disease management (CDM) approaches that are low-cost and can be delivered in home and community sites: pharmacologic, behavioral, monitoring, and minimally invasive dentistry (MID). The extent of adoption of these approaches among US pediatric dentists is unknown.

Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies, Inc., Lakewood, Colorado, USA.
Background Aims: The need for large-scale production of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-based cellular therapeutics continues to grow around the globe. Manual cell expansion processes can be highly variable between operators, require significant hands-on time from skilled staff and, because of the large number of open manipulation steps required to produce cells in dose-relevant quantities, be prone to greater risk of contamination relative to automated processes. All of these can increase overall production costs and risks to the patient.

This study assesses current HCT activities and explores the educational and system-based needs for effective HCT processes in a single institution.
Methods: We interviewed division/care program leaders at one academic tertiary-care children's hospital regarding HCT practices.
