Liposuction for chronic medical diseases and noncosmetic conditions: review of the literatureThe purpose of this systematic literature review was to evaluate the safety of liposuction techniques and to identify the cosmetic and noncosmetic application of liposuction. Liposuction can be used to improve the quality-of-life in patients with disabling medical conditions in addition to its use for cosmetic rejuvenation. An online search of the Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, Embase, and SciELO were conducted. Forty-seven original articles reported from 1982 to February 2014 were included in this review. The articles reported on the use as well as the limitations of liposuction for treatment of noncosmetic and disabling medical conditions. The criteria used for selection of articles were: large sample size and originality. The case reports were excluded. There was a broad agreement about the applicability and the efficacy of the liposuction for treatment of these chronic medical conditions, such as multiple systemic lipomatosis, dercum’s disease, chronic lymphedema, and axillary hyperhidrosis. Literatures review confirmed that Liposuction technique has provided significant and stable cure for these chronic medical conditions. Liposuction is the most frequent esthetic procedure for adipose tissue reduction and treatment of lipedema worldwide. Apart from esthetic indications, liposuction can also be used to treat chronic medical diseases and noncosmetic conditions.
Existe en el paisaje lingüístico vasco un tipo de letra con variedades que tienen características comunes y que han llegado a entenderse como un símbolo de lo vasco y una seña de la identidad vasca. Pero no siempre ha sido así. Su uso, extensión y significado ha variado bastante durante el último siglo y medio. El objetivo de esta ponencia es trazar y describir las principales fases evolutivas de la llamada “fuente vasca”, prestando especial atención a su dimensión ideológica. Dado el gran interés académico por la relación entre la identidad y la lengua vascas, sorprende la escasez de estudios que se han dedicado a la función identitaria de la llamada “fuente vasca”. Tanto la forma de la letra como el soporte material de la escritura son elementos invisibles para la mayoría, pero de gran relevancia en la percepción e interpretación de lo escrito, como bien saben los diseñadores, tipógrafos y rotulistas. El estudio abarca desde el origen de la fuente en las estelas funerarias vascas hasta su uso estilizado en las identidades corporativas contemporáneas. Durante el medio siglo que pasó desde la última Guerra carlista hasta la Guerra civil la grafía utilizada en las estelas se pone de moda, apropiada y promocionada por el llamado Renacimiento Vasco para la construcción de una tradición inventada. Durante la segunda mitad del régimen franquista, estas letras se popularizan y se difunden por medio de la rotulación comercial vasca, y durante los primeros años de la Transición se politizan al formar parte de la iconografía nacionalista vasca que brota en el espacio público vasco en forma de carteles, panfletos y octavillas. Con la digitalización y las nuevas tecnologías de imprenta y rotulación, paralelas a la institucionalización de gran parte del nacionalismo vasco, la “fuente vasca” es luego objeto de una mercantilización y paulatina despolitización. Finalmente, en la última década actores políticos y sociales como el Gobierno Vasco y el Ayuntamiento de Bilbao se apropian de esta fuente, estilizándola, en sus intentos de crear una autenticidad escenificada y presentar una imagen moderna de la identidad vasca.

The aim of the study was to investigate caries experience levels in the Xavante Indi-ans, in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil, with a focus on between-group differences. Oral health data were collected in 2004, following WHO guidelines in four of the seven Xavante reserves (Pimentel Barbosa, Sangradouro, Areões and Marechal Rondon). Data were collected in the largest village in each of the reserves, using the DMFS index. Statistical analyses included sex-specific Poisson re-gressions to compare DMFS values among Xavante reserves. Prevalence ratios (PR) were used to measure the differences in caries experiences in the 6-to-34-year age group, whose losses varied between 26% and 30%. Xavante from the Pimentel Bar-bosa community were selected as reference group as they showed a lower prevalence of caries in all age groups. The major difference in DMFS was observed between Pimentel Barbosa and Sangradouro, both in males (PR 2.68, 95%CI 2.41-2.97) and in females (PR 2.03, 95%CI 1.85-2.23)...
