[Dietary habits and oral hygiene in school children in the city of Debrecen].

Acid products formed by bacterial fermentation of dietary carbohydrates in the dental plaque, are required for the initiation of dental caries. The aim of the present study was to analyze nutritional and oral hygienic habits of 216 schoolchildren (108 boys and 108 girls) aged of 7, 12 and 14 years. In the studied population children brushed their teeth after meals in 42.5, 54.3 and 38.1% (in the 7, 12 and 14 year age groups respectively). The additional hygienic aids (interdental cleaning: 32.5, 42.4 and 34.5%, oral rinse: 7.5, 27.2 and 23.8%) were used only by a smaller part of the studied groups. Consumption of dairy products and fruits was satisfactory. The habit of drinking carbonic acid containing soft drinks was rather high (%). Some (2.5, 10.9 and 7.1%) of the children drink it several times a day. Fluoride containing Dentocar tablets were used only in 42.5, 3.3 and 1.2% in the studied groups.

Mr. O'Leary, who joined the Dallas-based hospital chain in July 1991, has spent the past year and a half recruiting his own team of senior executives and implementing a new agenda for the company. But it's his aggressive cost-cutting and the bottom-line improvements that have earned him the highest marks.

Proposed changes in arbitrage rules aim to simplify cumbersome process.

The Internal Revenue Service has proposed an overhaul of its rules governing profits earned by not-for-profit institutions when they temporarily invest proceeds from the sale of tax-exempt bonds. The current rules, implemented in 1986 to counteract such abuses, are long and complicated, IRS officials admit. The new rules could be in place by June 30.
