1. Virtual Reality simulator for dental anesthesia training in the inferior alveolar nerve block
Abstract Objectives This study shows the development and validation of a dental anesthesia-training simulator, specifically for the inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB). The system developed provides the tactile sensation of inserting a real needle in a human patient, using Virtual Reality (VR) techniques and a haptic device that can provide a perceived fo

2. Speech therapy for compensatory articulations and velopharyngeal function: a case report
The objective of this study was to describe the process of intensive speech therapy for a 6-year-old child using compensatory articulations while presenting with velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) and a history of cleft lip and palate. The correction of VPI was temporarily done with a pharyngeal obturator since the child presented with very little movement o

3. Pathologic outcomes during the learning curve for robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy
OBJECTIVE: We report our initial experience with 62 patients undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP), focusing on the primary parameter of positive surgical margins. The authors demonstrate that excellent oncologic outcomes can be attained with a less steep learning curve than previously hypothesized. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The first 62

4. Development of an anthropomorphic prosthesis prototype for superior members / Desenvolvimento do protótipo de uma prótese antropomórfica para membros superiores
The purpose of this assignment is to develop a multifunctional and anthropomorphic upper limb prosthesis prototype for amputated patients. Its objective is to substitute the natural lost hand, in a way to improve the performance of regular activities. This prosthesis will have anthropomorphic characteristics, like appearance and movement, similar to the ones

5. Mechanical properties of skin and responsiveness of slowly adapting type I mechanoreceptors in rats at different ages.
Slowly adapting type I (s.a. I) cutaneous mechanoreceptors were studied in young (3-4 months old) and adult (9-11 months old) rats. Trains of thirty repetitive mechanical stimuli with 0.1 s rise time, 1.9 s plateau phase, and 0.7 s interstimulus interval were applied. A feed-back mechanism maintained the force of stimulation at 20 mN during the plateau phase
