To analyze the results of the forensic psychiatric examination in the period of time from 2006 to 2013 year.We analyze retrospectively 7180 material of clients attended to forensic mental examination in the National center of mental health from 2006 to 2013 year.From all 7180 clients that attended to forensic mental examination in the 2006-2013 the 1165 clients or 16.2% were with mental disorders. The 543 clients or 7.5% of all attended to examination were with mental retardation and 59.8% of mentally retarded clients were with mild mental retardation, 33.8% with moderate, 5.3% with severe and 0.9% with profound mental retardation. The 97.3% (n=6989) of all clients investigated first time, 158 or 2.2% second time, and 33 or 0.45% third or fourth time. From 7062 criminal cases 4.98% or 352 investigated clientsdeemed incompetent and from 115 civil cases 57.3% or 66 clients deemed incompetent. From the clients with mental retardation deemed incompetent in criminal cases the 23.5% and 7.5% in civil cases.Results of the analysis show that about 16.2% of all investigated clients have some mental disorders and 46.6% of them have mild mental retardation.

People with unexplained somatic complains are high-rate users of healthcare and often receive expensive, unnecessary tests and treatments.To study causes of unexplained somatic complains and some clinical symptoms.There were selected 25 consumers who diagnosed unexplained somatic complains according to ICD-X criteria in our study. In addition, qualitative research was used as semi-structure questionnaire for themMajority of study samples were living unpleasant environment in their family, conflicts of their parents relationship and substance abuse of parents. Most of the participants occurred change of sensation.This disorder is associated with negative family environment.

Bullying or peers violation is one of adolescent`s truly urgent issue but it is not public discussion topic. We conducted a study in 3 different schools which began from 6th of October, 2014 to 13th of October, 2014. There are total 167 subjects aged between 13-18 were from classes of junior and senior- high at: Orchlon school, School of 1 and School of 13. We used 53- item Questionnaire consisted of 4 sections for our study. We concluded 98(58.7%) participants from School of 1, 26(15.6%) participants from School of 13 and 43(25.7%) participants from Orchlon school who were aged between 13-17 (M=14.7±0.1) which comprise of 84 (50.3%)male and 83 (49.7%) female in our study We assessed correlation of depression and bullying by linear regression. The result of it shows 1 more score of depression measuring scale-CES-D can rise score of Aggression scale 1 by 0.33 point and also it can rise score of Aggression scale 2 by 0.84 point. There is a positive correlation between bullying and depression which confirms high risk of bullying is associated with majordepression in significantly. (p value 0.000) The findings of the study reveals that high levels of bullying associated with high levels of depression.

INTRODUCTION:It has been suggested that most of the patients with bipolar disorders (BD) have either parent sidewhich is mentally ill. Furthermore, 25-27% of the children have been affected by BD if either parentside has BD, or 50-75% is affected if theboth sides of parents have BD, respectively. Heritability ofBD in monozygotic twins is 40-70%, and it is 20% in dizygotic twins. Therefore we aimed to studyhereditary issues of patients with bipolar disorders.PURPOSE:To assess hereditary issues of patients with bipolar disorders.MATERIALS AND METHODS:The study sample comprises 31 male, 81 female patients referred to the inpatient settings of theNational Center for Mental Health. The participiants were examined by psychiatric interviewsincluding objective and subjective anamnesis to assess hereditary history of bipolar disorders.Pearson’s x2 test was used for the analysis between categorical variables, whereas simple logisticregression was used for the regression analysis.RESULTS:We covered 31 male (24.8%), 81 female (75.2%) participants between 14-62 years old, mean age:42.05±0.97. Among the participants, 60 (53.6%) of them were with the hereditary history of mentaldisorders whose father (11.6%), mother (25%), a sibling (21.7%),close relatives (38.3%), and a child(3.3%) were mentally ill. 46.7% of the relatives were diagnosed with mood disorders and 36.7% ofthem were diagnosed with schizophrenia and its spectrum disorders. Furthermore, there was anassociation between mental illness of a sibling and bipolar disorders. Also, the number of patientswith BD whose mother was diagnosed with BD (13%) is more prevalent than the patients with BDwhose mother or father or other relatives were diagnosed with any mental disorders (x2 test, P value= 0.012).CONCLUSION:Heritability of BD might be associated with autosomal dominant inheritance with incompletephenotype, and mostly relevant if the patient’s sibling is diagnosed with mental disorders. Keywords:bipolar disorders, depression,mania, heredity, risk factors.

BACKGROUND. The Dahl Concept refers to the relative axial tooth movement that is observed when a localized restorations are placed in supra-occlusion in dental hard tissue worn anterior area and posterior full arch occlusal contacts re-establishes over a period of time irrespective of age and gender. The literature reports that the objectives of the Dahl concept are achieved in the majority of cases (94%-100%). Some minor and transient adverse events, such as initial difficulty with mastication could develop. If dental arch is crowded and some of the teeth are pushed away, they tends to be pushed more even they were visually aligned by a heavy preparation under the ceramic restorations such as crowns and veneers. To avoid these costly and teeth-harmful treatment options for patients with anterior crowding and who wants straighter and beautiful looking teeth, we use a conservative approach of Align+Bleach+Bonding technique.
MATEREALS AND METHOD. For tooth alignment we used Inman Aligner, Clear Aligner and Clear Smile Braces (fixed ceramic braces with super elastic Ni-Ti wires) or their combination. After short orthodontics a Dahl concept was applied to improve patients’ functional occlusion and anterior guidance. A “free-hand” and “no-any-drill” composite restoration technique was used to restore worn anterior teeth. For proper orthodontic diagnosis, assessment and treatment planning Spacewise analysis and Digital Caliper measurement were performed using models, their digital scans and intra/extraoral photos. We use Inman Orthodontic Lab in Florida for Inman Aligner fabrication and IAS Laboratory in London for Clear smile braces set up. Clear aligners (Scheu Dental, Germany) are planned and fabricated at the Digital Dental Office’s Clear Aligner certified laboratory. All treatments are start only after thorough diagnostic analysis, case discussion and acceptance from technical experts and orthodontists from UK, USA and Germany and acceptance of planned results from the patients. A course of home bleaching was then performed followed by resin bonding of anterior teeth edges to stabilize anterior guidance.
RESULTS. More than 200 cases of upper and lower anterior crowding have been treated in comparably short period of time. From those we are introducing 3 different cases which were treated using above mentioned three appliances as an example. Average orthodontic treatment lasted 8-16 weeks depending on degree of crowding and type of appliances used. The arch crowding were less than 4 mm in all of them. No any teeth were extracted. After orthodontic treatment patients had double retentions (fixed+clear retainers). Dahl concept was performed in patients with anterior attrition and few patients experienced minor difficulty with chewing for their first week only. To control results of molar extrusion we measured space between occlusal surfaces of opposing molars in the SAM 3 articulator positioned in the centric relation.
CONCLUSION. In order to get a long term proper stability of dento-facial function with a bonus of beautiful smile the concept of keeping own teeth and its structure became essential in cosmetic and restorative dentistry. The good thing of Dahl technique is its simplicity if it is done properly and its cost effectiveness. And as it was described the edge bonding itself could be a permanent retainer which prevents a future relapse in ortho-aligned teeth. Moreover patients were highly satisfied due to fast alignment, opportunity of keeping their teeth untouched and getting aesthetically pleasant result with a stable function.

Background :
Low triglycerides and cholesterol was associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Chronic HCV infection is the main cause of liver injury and it may influence to serum lipid levels. We aimed to evaluate the effect of antiviral treatment on the change of lipid profiles during interferon-based anti-HCV treatment.
Material and Methods :
Totally 863 patients who completed the interferon-based antiviral therapy in Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital were included in this present study. The lipid profile measured and assessed in the baseline of the treatment and after 6 months of completion of the treatment.
Results :
The most of the patients (81.2%) were achieved sustained virological response (SVR) by antiviral therapy. There was no significant difference between baseline triglycerides (TG) levels in the SVR group and non SVR groups. The TG levels at 6 months after completion of the treatment was significantly elevated in SVR group (102.9±57.0 mg/dL, p=0.0001) but did not elevated in non SVR group (94.5±45.6 mg/dL, p=0.690) compared with baseline TG levels.
After adjusting patients by four indexes for fibrosis (FIB4) in cut-off point 3.25, serum TG levels significantly increased in low FIB4 group (103.2±57.9 mg/dL, p=0.0001) but not in high FIB4 group (98.1±49.6 mg/dL, p=0.095) after 6 months end of the treatment. Serum TG level was increased greater in patients who had low FIB4 score and patients who achieved SVR (baseline 89.1±34.8 mg/dL; 6 months after treatment 104.3±59.3 mg/dL, paired T test p=0.0001).
Conclusion
The eradication of HCV is the main cause of the increase of lipids after Pegylated Interferon and Ribavirin treatment.
However advanced fibrosis also has an effect in increase of TG after the treatment.

Non-bacterial originated tooth wear is a normal process which occurs throughout lif. If the rate of loss is likely to prejudice the survival of the teeth, or is a source of concern to the patient, then it may be considered ‘pathological’. Robb reported that the prevalence of pathological loss of tooth tissue in patients less than 26 years of age was greater than in many older age groups. Tooth surface loss was classified into 4 groups: attrition, erosion, abfraction and abrasion.
To find the prevalence of four different types of tooth wear among patients visited Digital Dental Office, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia and investigate their dental attrition severity.
Methods: From total of patients visited Digital Dental Office clinic between September 2016 and September 2017 adults aged 16-62 who was found with any type of tooth wear were explored by 4 types. Those patients with attrition were chosen and severity was determined by Bardsley’s simplified tooth wear index (TWI).
There were total of 5432 patients examined and treated during this period of time. From them total of 1002 patients aged 16-62 presented some degree of tooth hard tissue wear/dental attrition. Most of the patients were with combination of 4 types of tooth wear: attrition, abrasion, abfraction and erosion. Attrition (At) was found in 68 patients which was only 6.7%, Abrasion (Ab) in14 people-1.3%, Abfraction (Abf) in 4-0.3%, Erosion (Er) in 2 -0.1% alone. The combination of these types of tooth hard tissue was dominant. At+ab+abf+er in 59 patients of total 1002 (5.8%). At+ab+er in 58 (5.7%). Ab+abf in 29 (2.8%). At+er in 25 patients (2.4%). Er+ab in 27 (2,6%). At+abf+er in 264 people (26.3%). At+abf in 452 (45.1%), which was the most prevalent combination.
Dental attrition severity in these 1002 patients were shown as following:
-0-0- No loss of contour.
-1-229 people (22.8%) - Loos of enamel surface characteristics. Minimal loss of contour.
-2- 505 people (50.3 %) - Loss of enamel exposing dentine for less than one third of surface.Loss of enamel just exposing dentine. Defect less than 1 mm deep.
-3- 211 people (21 %) - Loss of enamel exposing dentine for more than one third of surface.Loss of enamel and substantial loss of dentine. Defect less than 1-2 mm deep.
-4-57 people (5.6%) - Complete enamel loss - pulp exposure - secondary dentin exposure.Pulp exposure or exposure of secondary dentine. Defect more than 2mm deep - pulp exposure - secondary dentine exposure.
In this descriptive study showed patients with some degree of tooth wear were around 19% from total patients visited during 1 year of period. Four types of tooth hard tissue wear shown as a different combination, very low percentage was in these types alone. Most of the attrition patients were with mild to moderate degree of enamel loss. This kind of study should be continued to explore harmful dentofacial change
