Abstract:
Introduction: Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaws is defined as exposed irradiated bone that fails to heal over a period of 3 months without the evidence of a persisting or recurrent tumor. In the previous decades, numerous factors were associated with the risk of ORN development and severity. Aims: The purposes of this study were to present the data of the patients that were treated for ORN in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in Munich (LMU), to detect factors that contributed to the onset of ORN, to identify risk factors associated with the severity of ORN and finally, to

Objectives. Existing evidence indicates that late presentation of glaucoma (i.e. advanced visual field loss) is an important risk factor for subsequent blindness. This study was designed to identify the risk factors for first presenting to an NHS ophthalmologist with advanced glaucomatous visual field loss by comparing with a group who presented with early loss. Design. Hospital-based case-control study with prospective identification of cases and controls. Setting. Three Hospital Eye Departments in England. Subjects.

The Breech Baby Study is a mixed methods study which combines qualitative and quantitative inquiry. This study explores psycho-social-cultural risk factors for breech presentation from an evolutionary perspective. The quantitative component of the study uses Florida birth certificate and Medicaid data sets from 1992-2003 to evaluate the influence of ethnicity and socio-economic status on breech presentation. Ethnicity and socio-economic status account for less than two percent of the variance of risk factors for breech presentation. The qualitative study includes 114 mothers of breech and ceph
