Three-Dimensional Cephalometric Norms Of Turkish Cypriots Using Cbctimages Reconstructed From A Volumetric Rendering Program In Vivo, Levent Vahdettin, Seçi̇l Aksoy, Ulaş Öz, Kaan Orhan
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Background/aim: The aim of this study was to create a database of 3D cephalometric measurements of Turkish Cypriot patients using a 3D rendering software program. Materials and methods: The study population comprised 121 subjects who had undergone cone beam CT imaging (CBCT). Invivo 5.1 software was used to generate cephalograms from the CBCT dataset that were then linked to the 3D hard-tissue surface representations. In total, 38 angular and 28 linear widely used measurements were recorded. Results: The results demonstrated that males had significantly larger mean values than females for all linear measurements, except for dentoalveolar parameters (P < 0.05). Additionally, significant differences were found in most of the mandibular anteroposterior and vertical measurements, especially SNB, GoGn/SN, FMA, and MP/SN, between the sexes (P < 0.05). Conclusion: This is the first population-based study to focus solely on Turkish Cypriots' craniofacial anatomy and orthodontic characteristics. The present findings will produce 3D cephalometric normative data for the Cypriot population and will be valuable for oral and maxillofacial surgeons and orthodontists in Cyprus, the UK, Australia, Turkey, and other European countries who treat a large number of Turkish Cypriot patients.

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Background/aim: It has been reported from in vivo exposed experimental animals that paternal lead exposure reduces birth rate; however, there is limited evidence to suggest a decrease in the proportion of male births. This study investigated the role of paternal exposure to lower lead acetate doses on early embryonic development (implantation) and the sex ratio of their offspring. Materials and methods: In total 180 Swiss Webster mice were used (60 male and 120 female). The males were divided into 3 groups: G1 (untreated group), G2 (treated daily with 50 μg/kg BW lead acetate), and G3 (treated daily with 100 μg/kg …

The Zika virus (Zika) was first discovered in 1947 in Uganda, with only 14 cases documented before 2007 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2016). Over the last two years, however, this virus, formerly confined to the tropical regions of Africa and South East Asia, has been reported in South and Central America, Mexico, parts of the Caribbean, Polynesia, with the reports continuing to grow. In February, 2016, the World Health Organization reported that Zika has been elevated to a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. The spread of Zika is alarming because it has been associated with severe fetal …
