Background: Currently, one third of the world's population aged 65-74 years has partially or completely missing teeth. In our country, the data of epidemiological studies are scattered.
Objective: The aim of the study is assessment of the dynamics of the volume of orthopedic care provided to patients with complete absence of teeth in the Perm Region.
Material And Methods: The study of the volume of orthopedic care provided to patients with complete absence of teeth was carried out on the basis of a detailed retrospective analysis of their referral to dental clinics in the Perm Region for the period from 2014 to 2020. To assess the long-term dynamics of indicators of the volume of orthopedic care provided to patients with complete absence of teeth, the least squares method was used-gradation of growth rates.
Results: This investigation shows the trend of increasing the volume of orthopedic care provided to patients with complete absence of teeth for the period from 2014 to 2020. The average annual growth rate was 5.2%, this situation may be partly due to the accumulation of chronic inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity in the population. Among the patients who applied for dental orthopedic care with complete absence of teeth, women prevailed - 61.8%. The average age of patients with complete absence of teeth was 63.2±1.6 years.
Conclusion: The trend of increasing the volume of orthopedic care provided to patients with complete absence of teeth in the Perm Region indicates unfavorable changes in the overall dental morbidity over the period 2014-2020 and increased availability of removable dentures with complete loss of teeth. Forecasting the volume of care for patients in this category is important for planning preventive measures.

Context: Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has diverse applications across various clinical specialties, serving as an adjunct to clinical findings and as a tool for increasing the quality of patient care. Owing to its multifunctionality, a growing number of medical schools are increasingly incorporating POCUS training into their curriculum, some offering hands-on training during the first 2 years of didactics and others utilizing a longitudinal exposure model integrated into all 4 years of medical school education. Midwestern University Arizona College of Osteopathic Medicine (MWU-AZCOM) adopted a 4-year longitudinal approach to include POCUS education in 2017.

Introduction: Dengue viruses (DENVs), the causative agents of dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome, undergo genetic mutations that result in new strains and lead to ongoing global re-infections.
Objectives: To address the growing complexity of identifying and tracking biological samples, this study screened RNA barcode segments for the four DENV serotypes, ensuring high specificity and recall rates for DENV identification using segments.
Results: Through analyzing complete genome sequences of DENVs, we screened eight barcode segments for DENV, DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4 identification.

Bacterial pneumonia is a common disease in adult horses, but there are no guidelines for practitioners regarding risk factors, diagnosis, and management of the disease. The objectives of this study were to describe how a group of equine veterinarians diagnose and treat bacterial pneumonia in adult horses. A 22-question survey was distributed via multiple platforms to equine veterinarians asking questions regarding the frequency with which they identified specific clinical findings and used certain diagnostic modalities, and the approach to antimicrobial and adjunct therapy.

Excessive inorganic trace elements are added to livestock and poultry feed to meet the needs of animals, accompanied by frequent occurrence of excretion and gastrointestinal stress. Replacing inorganic trace elements with organic trace elements provides a promising solution to alleviate these problems. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the impact of replacing all inorganic trace elements (ITMs) in feed on the growth performance, meat quality, serum parameters, trace element metabolism, and gut microbiota of finishing pigs.
