EL TRASLADO DE LA ASISTENCIA DE SALUD MENTAL A LOS PACIENTES SIN TECHO
El principio primario de esta iniciativa fue trasladar la asistencia de salud mental desde los hospitales a los espacios de concurrencia de estos individuos. Este objetivo se logró gracias al establecimiento de una relación formal entre los profesionales de salud mental encargados de realizar la asistencia y los partícipes de dos organizaciones no gubernamentales que se dedican a la administración de refugio y cuidados generales para las personas indigentes.

SENSITIVITY OF FECAL IMMUNOCHEMICAL TEST IN DETECTING COLORECAL NEOPLASMS
Cumulative evidence has confirmed that FIT is a sensitive screening test with the potential to decrease the mortality of CRC when it is implemented at the population level. The evaluation of FIT performance is an important first step before implementation of the preventive strategy; however, one positive test is not equal to one cancer detected. Many other important issues complicate the screening process. To improve the effectiveness on the population level, a step-by-step evaluation of the screening process is needed.

REDEFINING THE CAUSE FOR THE PERSISTENT INFECTION OF ENDODONTICALLY TREATED TEETH.
Aim: To address the cause of persistent infection of root canal treated teeth. Materials and Methods: 60 human single-rooted teeth divided into three groups. Group I (control group): no access opening and one-third of the apical root sealed using varnish. Group II: no preparation of teeth samples. In group III, apical root cementum was exposed to lactic acid and roughened using diamond point to mimic apical resorption. In group II & III E. faecalis broth was inoculated in the root canals and apical one-third of the tooth was immersed in the broth for 8 weeks with alternate day refreshment followed by biomechanical preparation, obturation and coronal seal. Apical one-third of all teeth samples were again immersed in the broth for 8 weeks to mimic secondary infection. The teeth were split into two halves and observed under confocal microscope. Results: E. faecalis penetrated 160 μm deep into the root cementum in group III samples and only showed adhesion in group II samples. Conclusion: Adhesion and Penetration of E. faecalis into the cementum could be the reason for persistent infection.
