Abstract Background The aim of the study was to compare the amount of interproximal enamel reduction (IPR) provided on ClinCheck software with the amount of IPR carried out by the orthodontist during treatment with clear aligners. Methods 30 subjects (14 males, 16 females; mean age of 24.53 ± 13.41 years) randomly recruited from the Invisalign account of the Department of Orthodontics at the University of Rome “Tor Vergata” from November 2018 to October 2019, were collected according to the following inclusion criteria: mild to moderate dento-alveolar discrepancy (1.5–6.5 mm); Class I canine and molar relationship; full permanent dentition (excluding third molars); both arches treated only using Comprehensive Package by Invisalign system; treatment plan including IPR. Pre- (T0) and post-treatment (T1) digital models (.stl files), created from an iTero scan, were collected from all selected patients. The OrthoCAD digital software was used to measure tooth mesiodistal width in upper and lower arches before (T0) and at the end of treatment (T1) before any refinement. The widest mesio-distal diameter was measured for each tooth excluding molars by “Diagnostic” OrthoCAD tool. The total amount of IPR performed during treatment was obtained comparing the sum of mesio-distal widths of all measured teeth at T0 and T1. Significant T1–T0 differences were tested with dependent sample t-test (P < 0.05). Results In the upper arch, IPR was digitally planned on average for 0.62 mm while in the lower arch was on average for 1.92 mm. As for the amount of enamel actually removed after IPR performing, it was on average 0.62 mm in the maxillary arch. In the mandibular arch, the mean of IPR carried out was 1.93 mm. The difference between planned IPR and performed IPR is described: this difference was on average 0.00 mm in the upper arch and 0.01 in the lower arch. Conclusions The amount of enamel removed in vivo corresponded with the amount of IPR planned by the Orthodontist using ClinCheck software.

Forced migration is likely to continue to grow in the coming years due to climate change, disease outbreaks, conflict, and other factors. There are a huge number of challenges to maintaining good health, and specifically good mental health, among migrants at all stages of migration. It is vital to fully understand these diverse challenges so that we can work towards overcoming them. In 2017, as a response to the growing health challenges faced by migrants and refugees, the M8 Alliance created an expert group focussing on migrant and refugee health. The group meets annually at the Sapienza University of Rome, Italy, and this article is based on the discussions that took place at the third annual meeting (6–7 June 2019) and a special session on “Protecting the Mental Health of Refugees and Migrants,” which took place on 27 October at the World Health Summit 2019 in Berlin. Our discussions are also supported by supplementary literature to present the diverse and complex challenges to the mental health of migrants and refugees. We conclude with some lessons learned and hope for the future.

As If

In October 1909, the speaker met at an autopsy a completely peculiar liver damage in a 21-year-old child, more than 3 years of diarrhea and a significant increase in the spleen (with ascites); the last one was removed to him, and the patient died from septic peritonitis. The liver was smooth, 1270 gm. vѣsom and extremely soft; in the portal vein and she herself turned out to be clogged with blood clots, red in the liver, and whitish in the drink itself. Liver tissue appeared to be red and och. soft, in some places whitish-yellowish color; areas of the last days formed nodes in the forms of cerebral convolutions, enveloping the rays of the Glisson capsule with large veins; the convolutions seemed striated, as if folded from the tubes, vertical to the axis of the crossbeam of the Glisson capsule. Such whitish areas were scattered everywhere and in the red parenchyma, not sharply delimited * from it and without lobular structure.

The paper describes a patented proposal to use jets of air in the cooling system of heavy trucks. Preliminary tests have been carried out, in the Heat Transfer Laboratory of the University of Rome “Tor Vergata”, to evaluate the heat transfer characteristics of a jet flow of air, impinging onto an externally finned cylinder. The cylinder is internally heated with an electric system. Thermocouples, located inside the cylinder, allow to measure the wall temperatures, in order to calculate the local and average convective heat transfer coefficients. A preliminary design of the practical apparatus, applied to heavy trucks, has been done in cooperation with Iveco. Nozzles are designed to be put after the fan of heavy trucks to converge air, in the form of jets, onto the tube where the charged air is flowing from the outlet of the turbo-compressor. The efficiency of the jet flow increases the cooling performances but, due to the high temperature at the outlet of the turbo-compressor, it may not be enough. The heat transfer cooling performances are enhanced if the tube to be cooled is externally finned. Some preliminary experiments have been carried out in a real scale bank test of an heavy truck engine at the Engineering Testing Laboratories Department of Iveco. Comparisons are done between the experiments and a simple theoretical model. Some conclusions are drawn about the cooling at different fluid dynamics conditions of the impinging jets.
