Compassion fatigue is emotional, physical, and spiritual exhaustion from witnessing and absorbing the problems of others. Aesthetic providers are prone to becoming victims of compassion fatigue because of the stress of meeting the often overwhelming needs of patients. This article discusses what is
Veneer chipping and fracture are common failure modes for porcelain-veneered zirconia dental restorations. We hypothesized that the graded glass/zirconia/glass with external esthetic glass (e-GZG) can increase the lifetime and improve resistance to veneer chipping and fracture relative to
The purpose of this study was to determine the flexural strength and flexural fatigue strength of a machinable composite (GN-I) and three hybrid composites (Artglass, Estenia, and Gradia). Specimens (2 x 2 x 25 mm) were polymerized in a laboratory photo-curing unit and then immersed in water at 37
Patients with multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS) often report heightened sensitivity to odors. Odor detection thresholds to phenyl ethyl alcohol (PEA) and pyridine (PYR) were evaluated as a measure of odor sensitivity for 33 MCS subjects, 13 chronic fatigue syndrome subjects, 16 asthmatic
The hypothesis under examination in this paper is that the lifetimes of dental restorations are limited by the accumulation of contact damage during oral function; and, moreover, that strengths of dental ceramics are significantly lower after multi-cycle loading than after single-cycle loading.
It has been repeatedly demonstrated that the tolerable duration (t) of high-intensity cycling is well characterized as a hyperbolic function of power (P) with an asymptote that has been termed the "fatigue threshold" and with a curvature constant. This hyperbolic P-t relationship has also been
This study was conducted to analyze the clinical characteristics of and treatment strategies for botulism among patients receiving cosmetic injection of botulinum toxin (BoNT).A total of 86 botulism patients caused by cosmetic injection of BoNT were enrolled in our study. All of the patients were
Facial wrinkles involving the forehead, glabellar, and/or periorbital regions are a common esthetic problem and are directly related to overactivity of the underlying facial musculature. For instance, the development of glabellar wrinkles is related, at least in part, to the dynamics of the
Aesthetic perception is a human instinct that is responsive to multimedia stimuli. Giving computers the ability to assess human sensory and perceptual experience of aesthetics is a well-recognized need for the intelligent design industry and multimedia intelligence study. In this work, we
The aim of the present prospective and descriptive study was to assess the impact of facial aesthetic and reconstructive surgeries on quality of life. Ninety-one patients, of whom 43 had aesthetic surgery and 48 had reconstructive surgery, were analysed. The data were collected using the patient
BACKGROUND
Widespread muscular pain, tenderness, unrefreshing sleep, and fatigue all constitute the fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), which is often seen in both general and rheumatology practice, primarily in women. The etiology is unknown. The FMS patient usually looks normal. The cardinal finding is
OBJECTIVE
Two-pilot operations make up the majority of commercial flights. Fatigue is an important consideration in these operations as there is little opportunity for in-flight rest. We investigated the role of duty length, time of day, and whether one or two sectors were flown on reported fatigue
Nurses and midwives make up almost 50% of the global healthcare shift working workforce. Shift work interferes with sleep and causes fatigue with adverse effects for nurses' and midwives' health, as well as on patient safety and care. Where other safety-critical sectors have developed Orthodontic treatment in patients with congenitally missing teeth can be challenging. In this case report, we describe the treatment of a 15-year-old girl with mild dental crowding and 2 congenitally missing mandibular incisors. The Forsus fatigue-resistant device was used to move the mandible and
