We retrospectively reviewed the records of 308 patients treated with radioiodine-131 (RAI) for Graves’ disease (n=266, 86.4%), toxic multinodular goitres (n=35, 11.4%) and toxic solitary nodules (n=7, 2.3%). The mean age of the men was 44 ±13.6 years (range 14-77 years). Patients with GD were predominantly in the younger age groups, while those with toxic nodular goitres were

Resumen

The geographical engagement with social justice has neglected to adequately focus on the spatiality of the concept and its implications for geographical investigation. As a first response to this omission, this thesis illuminates the spatiality of social justice by suggesting that the concept is a historically and geographically located understanding of the manner in which society's benefits and burdens can be distributed. This thesis develops a route of geographical enquiry into the concept of social justice that moves beyond the tripartite of structuralist, post-structuralist and egalitarian

Resumen

The shift from an ethnocentric, monocultural society to a more inclusive and democratic society should be accompanied by a national policy providing equal access to resources in a proactive, affirmative manner. This can be achieved in one of the two ways, either through equal employment opportunity or Affirmative Action. Affirmative Action is a specific intervention directed toward ensuring that employment opportunities are created by actively correcting imbalances caused by past discrimination and achieving employment targets. Equal employment opportunity implies an absence of discrimination,

<p>There are several categories of dental problems in children that cannot be treated optimally in the office settings and are best managed in the hospital theatre. The ability to treat children in the hospital environment in order to provide comprehensive dental care using general anaesthesia(GA) is a valuable option to the paediatric dentist, despite some degree of risk to the patient. General anaesthesia provides optimum conditions for restorative treatment such as maximum contamination control, immobilization of the patient, efficiency and effectiveness, and elimination of reflexes.</p>

The primary aims of the medico-legal autopsy are limited to establishing a cause of death in presumed unnatural cases, and to exclude criminality or negligence. Objective – To determine the final outcomes of forensic post-mortem examinations in “sudden and unexpected” adult deat

Resumen

Magister Scientiae Dentium - MSc(Dent)<br>Over the last few decades, and throughout the world, there would seem to have been an increase in the number and severity of infections affecting the maxillofacial region. In the South African setting this seems to be especially evident in the state health system. Maxillofacial infection of odontogenic origin is largely preventable. If treated appropriately and early in the pathological process, the progression of the disease process is generally prevented and complications avoided. Management of maxillofacial infections once established has serio

Master of Public Health - MPH<br>Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the most infectious diseases globally and is a huge public health concern. In 2016, the Western Cape Province had the fourth highest incidence of TB in South Africa, with 728 new cases per 100 000 population. Effective management of TB includes screening, diagnosis, treatment, control and elimination. The local health authority (municipality) has historically managed tuberculosis in the Cape Metropole but due to the increased TB burden, primary health care (PHC) facilities managed by Metro Health Services (MHS) (provinc

Magister Chirurgiae Dentium (MChD)<br>CONTEXT Limited data on the prevalence of HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) in Sub-Saharan Africa exist. The aim of the current study was to determine the prevalence of HPV-positive OPSCC at one of the largest tertiary care centers in the region (Tygerberg Hospital, Cape Town, South Africa). METHODS Sequential surgical samples of 266 cases of OPSCC diagnosed over a 10-year period (2007-2017) were selected for evaluation and relevant patient characteristics were documented. p16 immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed as a screening

The LODOX has an established role in the field of Forensic Pathology where it shows high sensitivity and specificity for the detection of skeletal pathology and foreign bodies. The role of the scanner in the detection of soft tissue pathology in the lungs of adults has not been reported and this study aims to review the radio-pathological correlation and the applicability of LODOX as a viable screening tool in

Magister Scientiae Dentium - MSc(Dent)<br>Background: Dental age is an indicator of the physiological maturity of growing children. Different methods for estimating the dental age in comparison to the chronological age were proposed in the literature. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of two methods i.e. the Phillips and Proffit methods in estimating the dental age in a sample of South African children at the Tygerberg dental faculty. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted by randomly selecting 100 panoramic radiographs with known chronological age. The sample

Resumen

Magister Scientiae Dentium - MSc(Dent)<br>HIV/AIDS remains a global health problem. Orofacial manifestations of HIV/AIDS have been found to be among the first signs of immune suppression and have been used in the clini-cal staging of the disease. Infants and children are prone to opportunistic infections because of the immature immune system. Orofacial manifestations of HIV can therefore be used to predict prog-nosis and progression of infection. The introduction of highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) has since seen a decline in the development of opportunistic infections and HIV-rel

Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The long waiting lists for general anaesthesia and sedation services for children with Early Childhood Caries (ECC) at the Tygerberg Oral Health Centre highlighted the problem of ECC in this area. This was confirmed by a retrospective study of patient records at the Centre. ECC is largely caused by a combination of lifestyle factors, especially feeding and oral hygiene practices. Socio-economic status and parental factors such as education and employment have also been shown to play a role in the development of ECC. In order t

They do not replace, but rather act in conjunction with good clinical judgment, and provide concise, standardized documentation of a patient’s readiness for discharge. 1,2,3,4,5 In order to improve patient safety, provide clear documentation and to aid future audit, a discharge criteria scoring system was developed for use in our PACU (Addendum A).
