Oral health status in children with type I diabetes mellitusIsmail, Ahmad Faisal Bin January 2014 (has links)
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder with varied etiology and diverse clinical course. World Health Organization (WHO) has distinguished three types of diabetes mellitus: insulin-dependent (Type I), non insulin-dependent (Type II) and associated with other disease and syndromes. Type I diabetes patients account for approximately 10% of all diabetics, in which children and adolescent almost exclusively develop Type I diabetes.
Diabetes can be diagnosed on the basis of symptoms, such as excessive thirst appetite, polyuria, body weight reduction, glucosuria and hyperglycaemia, confirmed by laboratory test. Acute complications may develop in the course of diabetes, usually related to extreme level of plasma glucose. Chronic complications usually developed secondary to micro-vascular changes, causing damages to small vessels, nerves, multiple organs and oral cavity.
The systematic review summarized the available evidence on the oral health of children with Type I diabetes mellitus. A total of 1179 abstract were retrieved during the initial search, and after exclusion, only 37 articles were qualified for final review and analysis. Though there was conflicting evidence regarding caries experience, it is clear that children with Type I diabetes mellitus exhibited poorer overall oral health status with higher plaque accumulation compared to healthy children.
The case-control study aimed to evaluate and compare the oral health status of children with Type I diabetes mellitus with healthy, non-diabetic controls in Hong Kong. A sample of 64 children (32 Type I diabetes mellitus, 32 age- and gender-matched controls) were included in the study. The study concluded that children with Type I diabetes had poor oral health status with greater plaque deposition when compared to healthy, non-diabetic controls. / published_or_final_version / Dental Surgery / Master / Master of Dental Surgery

In the company of music and illness : the experience and meaning of music listening for women living with chronic illnessNicol, Jennifer James 05 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to contribute an experiential understanding of everyday
"music listening experiences through a text that also conveyed a pathic way of knowing. I
studied the phenomenon of music listening in the particular context of women living with
chronic illness (i.e., a physical condition that is managed rather than cured), and in keeping with
van Manen's (1990, 2000) applied hermeneutic-phenomenological approach. Van Manen's
approach to phenomenological inquiry emphasizes implementation of the reductio (the
reduction), attention to the vocatio (the vocative dimension), and the use of empirical and
reflective methods to generate and analyze data. The question that guided this study was: What
is the lived experience and lived meaning of music listening for women living with chronic
illness?
Six women were interviewed in multiple conversations about their music listening
experiences. All lived with chronic illness, and identified music listening as important in their
lives. Following an initial analysis based on multiple readings from holistic, selective, and
detailed perspectives, I used a guided existential reflection based on lived body, lived time, lived
space, and lived relation to further understand, organize, and reveal the many ways in which the
women listened to music. Writing and rewriting in a reflective and dialogical manner were
grounding elements of analysis.
Findings contribute in several ways. Most broadly, the final text was constructed to
communicate an understanding that is embodied and discursive (i.e., knowledge as
participation), and that leads to personal formative knowledge (i.e., knowledge as being). As a
phenomenology of music listening, results suggested that to listen to music is to be in the
company of music; that is, to be with a longtime companion who ultimately aids in
accommodating the unanticipated arrival of chronic illness. Implications include future research
to further investigate the complex, relational dynamics associated with music listening
experiences, as well as the possibility of the body as a source of knowledge (i.e., mind-body),
acting as a musical compass in music listening experiences. Implications for counselling
practice are also described.
