Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of age on mineral metabolism and bone mineral density (BMD) of the hip and spine in Native American women. DESIGN: A cross-sectional study. SETTING: The Sac and Fox Nation in rural Oklahoma MEASUREMENTS: Serum measurements were made of 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), osteocalcin, and immunoreactive parathyroid hormone. Bone mineral density of the hip and spine was assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 77 Native American women aged 19 to 85 years. RESULTS: Serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D was related inversely to age (r = -0.32; P or = -0.48, P or = 0.41, P < .005) were independent determinants of both femoral and lumbar BMD. Serum 25OHD was a significant independent determinant of both lumbar (r = .26, P < .05) and femoral (r = .41, P < .01) BMD. Age, BMI, and serum 25OHD together accounted for 70% of the variance in BMD at these sites. The use of t scores indicated femoral bone density was higher (P < .05) in premenopausal Native American women, and lower (P < 0.05) in postmenopausal subjects, compared with white women. CONCLUSIONS: In Native American women, there is a reduction in bone density and a sustained increase in bone turnover postmenopausally. BMI and serum 25OHD are significant determinants of BMD. Peak BMD may be higher, and the postmenopausal rate of bone loss greater, than that in white women.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between asthma, wheezing prevalence and the rate of air pollution in Krakow. In the survey of 6696 schoolchildren aged 12-14 year, ISAAC questionnaires were performed. According to the distribution of the mean annual concentration of dust particles (PM10) and sulfur dioxide, four classes of these compounds were established. In the similar way, the lead concentration in garden soil and lettuce was categorized into three classes, which were surrogates of the automobile exhaust. Children's passive smoking was established by questionnaire. The study revealed a significant association and a positive correlation between the prevalence of asthma diagnosis and the soil and lettuce lead concentrations. Wheezing history (past and current) was significantly correlated with soil lead classes and the classes of dust particles (PM10). Maternal smoking was significantly associated with the asthma diagnosis and past or current wheezing. A significant relationship was found between paternal smoking and wheezing during and/or post exercise.

Abstract
A survey on the occurrence of copper, zinc, lead, cadmium and chromium in water distributed by 55 Finnish waterworks indicated that most of the elevated metal concentrations in tap water originated from the materials used for water pipes and armatures. Metal concentrations in raw water were usually very low, in most cases below the detection limit. Studying the possible connection between the occurrence of metals and the type of waterworks (surface/ground water; water treatment process) indicated that alcalization procedure applied for corrosion prevention had a marked effect on the metal concentrations found in tap water. Copper and zinc were found in greater quantities in water from ground water supplies with soda or caustic soda for alcalization treatment than in water from surface water supplies with lime alcalization, the differences being statistically significant. There were no statistically significant differences between the metal concentrations in ground waters alcalized with soda or caustic soda and untreated ones. No statistically significant differences were found between the different types of waterworks as to the occurrence of lead, cadmium and chromium.

Abstract
The bond strength of resin composite to Er,Cr:YSGG laser-irradiated enamel and dentin has been evaluated in only a few studies. Therefore, we measured and compared the micro-shear bond strength of composite restorations to enamel and dentin using two different cavity-preparation tools and conditioning methods. One hundred and seventy-five caries-free human third molars were sectioned longitudinally into two different thicknesses and randomly assigned to seven subgroups (n = 25). Enamel groups included laser-cut without etching (LO), laser-cut and laser-etched (LL), laser-cut and acid-etched (LA), bur-cut and laser-etched (BL1), and bur-cut and acid-etched (BA1-comparison group). Dentinal groups included bur-cut and laser-etched (BL2) and bur-cut and acid-etched (BA2-comparison group). The specimens were bonded by Single Bond and Tygon tubes and were restored with Z100 composite. Failure patterns were evaluated using a stereomicroscope, and a shear bond test was performed at 0.5 mm/min. The mean shear bond strength values (MPa) for the LO, LL, LA, BL1 and BA1 enamel groups were 23.14, 23.77, 23.51, 19.30, and 28.99, respectively, whereas for the BL and BA dentinal groups, these values were 22.44 and 26.15, respectively. In enamel specimens, BA1 and LL groups presented the highest shear bond strength values, and the bur-cut and laser-etched (BL1) group showed the lowest values. In the laser-etched groups, bond strength values for bur-cut surfaces were significantly higher than those for laser-cut surfaces. Moreover, there was a significant difference between the BL2 and BA2 dentinal groups. The results of this study indicate that re-etching with acid phosphoric would be recommended if an Er,Cr:YSGG laser is used for tooth preparation or surface treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of cigarette or sheesha smoking on first-trimester markers of Down syndrome. DESIGN: A prospective observational study. SETTING: Primary care centres and antenatal clinics of Maternity and Children Hospital, King Abdulaziz University Hospital and New Jeddah Clinic Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. POPULATION: Women with a singleton pregnancy who were either nonsmokers (n = 1736) or cigarette smokers (n = 420) or sheesha smokers (n = 181). METHODS: Fetal nuchal translucency thickness (fetal NT), maternal serum free beta-human chorionic gonadotrophin (free beta-hCG) and pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) were measured at 11 weeks 0 days to 13 weeks 6 days of gestation in all women. Women were grouped according to smoking status, confirmed by maternal serum cotinine measurements, and analyte levels between groups were compared. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Fetal NT, maternal serum free beta-hCG, PAPP-A and cotinine measurements. RESULTS: Compared with nonsmoking women, fetal NT was significantly increased and free beta-hCG and PAPP-A levels were significantly decreased in both cigarette and sheesha smokers. There were significant relationships between all three markers and the number of sheeshas consumed per day. CONCLUSIONS: Cigarette and sheesha smoking significantly affect first-trimester markers of Down syndrome (fetal NT, free beta-hCG and PAPP-A). Correction for this effect in women who smoke might improve the effectiveness of first-trimester screening for Down syndrome in these women. The underlying mechanism(s) relating smoking to the changes in first-trimester markers require further studies.

Abstract
Maltese children are frequently exposed to tobacco smoke through passive and personal smoking. In the phase 3 ISAAC study questionnaire, we enquired about passive smoking to the parents of 3816 (80% response rate) 5- to 8-yr-old children and about passive and personal smoking to 4139 (90% response rate) 13- to 15-yr-old participating children. Thirty-one percent of 5- to 8-yr olds were passive smokers with their father more likely to be the smoker (p
