    Summary: This concise manual offers best practice guidance on dental treatment of pediatric patients with special health care needs (CSHCN). The straightforward approaches described will enable clinicians to deliver high-quality, patient-centered care to children with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Readers will find up-to-date information on case-based treatment planning, alternative caries management strategies, the use of behavioral and pharmacological interventions to facilitate delivery of quality treatment, and a team approach to care. Practical clinical tips are provided on how to achieve and maintain oral health, including good oral hygiene and nutrition. A systematic framework for patient assessment and interaction with medical colleagues will assist readers in understanding when dental protocols must be altered. Other important topics include techniques for effective communication with CSHCN, behavioral strategies to improve treatment acceptance, the role of occupational therapy techniques, the sensory adapted dental environment, and the use protective stabilization.

    Plasma and tesicular testosterone were measured by radioimmunoassay in the 29-day-old rabbit fetus receiving an injection of saline solution, LH or LHRH. 30 min following the injection of 5 microgram LH into the umbilical vein, testosterone levels were significantly increased by 287% in the plasma and 293% in the testis, compared with controls receiving saline solution. The injection of 2 microgram of LHRH under the same conditions significantly increased testicular testosterone by 256% and plasma testosterone by 746%. The results show that the fetal rabbit testis, at the end of gestation, is capable of responding to LH stimulation. The hypophysio-testicular axis is apparently functional at this stage of gestation, as shown by the response to LHRH.
