  • LYME DISEASE Other Names: Borrelia Burgdorferi
    LYME DISEASE Other names: Borrelia burgdorferi CAUSE Lyme disease is caused by a spirochete bacteria (Borrelia burgdorferi) that is transmitted through the bite from an infected arthropod vector, the black-legged or deer tick Ixodes( scapularis). SIGNIFICANCE Lyme disease can infect people and some species of domestic animals (cats, dogs, horses, and cattle) causing mild to severe illness. Although wildlife can be infected by the bacteria, it typically does not cause illness in them. TRANSMISSION The bacteria has been observed in the blood of a number of wildlife species including several bird species but rarely appears to cause illness in these species. White-footed mice, eastern chipmunks, and shrews serve as the primary natural reservoirs for Lyme disease in eastern and central parts of North America. Other species appear to have low competencies as reservoirs for the bacteria. The transmission of Lyme disease is relatively convoluted due to the complex life cycle of the black-legged tick. This tick has multiple developmental stages and requires three hosts during its life cycle. The life cycle begins with the eggs of the ticks that are laid in the spring and from which larval ticks emerge. Larval ticks do not initially carryBorrelia burgdorferi, the bacteria must be acquired from their hosts they feed upon that are carriers of the bacteria. Through the summer the larval ticks feed on the blood of their first host, typically small mammals and birds. It is at this point where ticks may first acquireBorrelia burgdorferi. In the fall the larval ticks develop into nymphs and hibernate through the winter.

  • Guideline # 18 ORAL HEALTH
    Guideline # 18 ORAL HEALTH RATIONALE Dental caries, commonly referred to as “tooth decay” or “cavities,” is the most prevalent chronic health problem of children in California, and the largest single unmet health need afflicting children in the United States. A 2006 statewide oral health needs assessment of California kindergarten and third grade children conducted by the Dental Health Foundation (now called the Center for Oral Health) found that 54 percent of kindergartners and 71 percent of third graders had experienced dental caries, and that 28 percent and 29 percent, respectively, had untreated caries. Dental caries can affect children’s growth, lead to malocclusion, exacerbate certain systemic diseases, and result in significant pain and potentially life-threatening infections. Caries can impact a child’s speech development, learning ability (attention deficit due to pain), school attendance, social development, and self-esteem as well.1 Multiple studies have consistently shown that children with low socioeconomic status (SES) are at increased risk for dental caries.2,3,4 Child Health Disability and Prevention (CHDP) Program children are classified as low socioeconomic status and are likely at high risk for caries. With regular professional dental care and daily homecare, most oral disease is preventable. Almost one-half of the low-income population does not obtain regular dental care at least annually.5 California children covered by Medicaid (Medi-Cal), ages 1-20, rank 41 out of all 50 states and the District of Columbia in receiving any preventive dental service in FY2011.6 Dental examinations, oral prophylaxis, professional topical fluoride applications, and restorative treatment can help maintain oral health.

James S Lewis Jr Department of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology; Department of Otolaryngology, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN, USA As the human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma epidemic has developed in the past several decades, it has become clear that these tumors have a wide variety of morphologic tumor types and features. For the practicing pathologist, it is critical to have a working knowledge about these in order to make the correct diagnosis, not to confuse them with other lesions, and to counsel clinicians and patients on their significance (or lack of significance) for treatment and outcomes. In particular, there are a number of pitfalls and peculiarities regarding HPV-related tumors and their nodal metastases that can easily result in misclassification and confusion. This article will discuss the various morphologic types and features of HPV- related oropharyngeal carcinomas, specific differential diagnoses when challenging, and, if established, the clinical significance of each finding. Modern Pathology (2017) 30, S44–S53; doi:10.1038/modpathol.2016.152 It is now well-established that human papilloma- Among its many effects on clinical practice, the virus (HPV) is responsible for a large fraction of oropharyngeal HPV epidemic has put pathologists at oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (SCC), the forefront of diagnosis and recognition of these particularly in the United States and Europe.1 Many unique tumors, which are much less clinically have termed the increase in HPV-related orophar- aggressive than conventional head and neck SCC, 7 yngeal SCC as an epidemic.2,3 There are numerous and which are beginning to be managed differently.

    DQA Measure EDF-A-A Effective January 1, 2021 **Please read the DQA Measures User Guide prior to implementing this measure.** DQA Measure Specifications: Administrative Claims-Based Measures Follow-up after Emergency Department Visits for Non-Traumatic Dental Conditions in Adults Description: The percentage of ambulatory care sensitive non-traumatic dental condition emergency department visits among adults aged 18 years and older in the reporting period for which the member visited a dentist within (a) 7 days and (b) 30 days of the ED visit Numerators: Number of ambulatory care sensitive non-traumatic dental condition ED visits in the reporting period for which the member visited a dentist within (a) 7 days (NUM1) and (b) 30 days (NUM2) of the ED visit Denominator: Number of ambulatory care sensitive non-traumatic dental condition ED visits in the reporting period Rates: NUM1/DEN and NUM2/DEN Rationale: The use of emergency departments (EDs) for non-traumatic dental conditions has been a growing public health concern across the United States (US)1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 with over 2 million visits occurring in 2015.9 The majority of ED visits are semi-urgent (53.8%) or non-urgent (23.9%)10, which can be better managed in an ambulatory care setting. Dental care in an ED setting is not definitive with limited care continuity that ultimately leads to poor oral health outcomes.11,12,13 This process of care measure can be used to assess if the patient had timely follow-up with a dentist for more definitive care.
