Protective effects of the notoginsenoside R1 on acute lung injury by regulating the miR-128-2-5p/Tollip signaling pathway in rats with severe acute pancreatitis

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Protective effects of the notoginsenoside R1 on acute lung injury by regulating the miR-128-2-5p/Tollip signaling pathway in rats with severe acute pancreatitis Via Innate Immunity In this study, we explored the pulmonary protective effect and the underlying mechanism of the NG-R1 on rats with ALI induced by severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). MiR-128-2-5p, ERK1, Tollip, HMGB1, TLR4, IκB, and NF-κB mRNA expression levels were measured using real-time qPCR, and TLR4, Tollip, HMGB1, IRAK1, MyD88, ERK1, NF-κB65, and P-IκB-α protein expression levels using Western blot. The NF-κB and the TLR4 activities were determined using immunohistochemistry, and TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and ICAM-1 levels in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) using ELISA. Lung histopathological changes were observed in each group. NG-R1 treatment reduced miR-128-2-5p expression in the lung tissue, increased Tollip expression, inhibited HMGB1, TLR4, TRAF6, IRAK1, MyD88, NF-κB65, and p-IκB-α ex... View on the web Inoreader.

Outcomes of Oral Epithelial Dysplasia Managed by Observation versus Excision at a Canadian Tertiary Centre

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Outcomes of Oral Epithelial Dysplasia Managed by Observation versus Excision at a Canadian Tertiary Centre Via Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery There is a lack of consensus in the management of oral epithelial dysplasia (OED). The purpose of this study is: 1) to evaluate whether surgical excision with histologically negative margins impacts the 5-year malignant transformation rate of OED, and 2) to compare the disease-specific survival outcome of patients diagnosed with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) that progressed from OED to those presenting with OSCC on initial biopsy.

Head and Neck Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis in Children

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Head and Neck Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis in Children Via Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) is a sporadic myeloid neoplasm with proliferation of dendritic cells.1 In the United States, LCH has an estimated annual incidence of approximately 1 per million children.2 Controversy exists regarding management of LCH in head and neck: debridement, chemotherapy, or both. Few reports describe LCH in the OMS literature. The purpose of this study was to present experience with LCH of head and neck in children.This was a retrospective review of children with LCH at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta from 2009 to 2020.

Pediatric-Antiresorptive Use: Should We Intervene on Third Molars Early?

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Commentary: Pediatric-Antiresorptive Use: Should We Intervene on Third Molars Early? Via Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery The recent article by Cimba et al raises an important question that has not been fully answered by the current literature.1 Pediatric patients affected by various skeletal disorders have received antiresorptive medications since around 1998.2 Historically, pamidronate has been the treatment of choice with a recent shift to zoledronate. To date, there have been no reported cases of medication related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) in the pediatric population. The reason for this has not been fully elucidated.

Are Incisional Biopsies Reliable to Select Definitive Treatment in Patients with Ameloblastoma of the Jaws? A 15-year Interdisciplinary Retrospective Study

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Are Incisional Biopsies Reliable to Select Definitive Treatment in Patients with Ameloblastoma of the Jaws? A 15-year Interdisciplinary Retrospective Study Via Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Ameloblastomas are tumors of odontogenic epithelium that, although benign, can have a locally aggressive course causing significant morbidity. WHO classifies ameloblastomas as 1 of 3 variants: solid/multicystic, unicystic, and peripheral. Resection, the standard treatment, is deemed curative, but can be debilitating to the patient. Unicystic subtype is considered less aggressive and could be treated with enucleation and curettage. The mercurial presentation of ameloblastomas makes the chosen treatment modality essential in decreasing the recurrence rates and associated morbidity.

Is Bone Grafting during Implant Placement a Protective Factor against the Development of Peri-implantitis? A Retrospective Cohort Analysis

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Is Bone Grafting during Implant Placement a Protective Factor against the Development of Peri-implantitis? A Retrospective Cohort Analysis Via Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery This study aims to identify if the use of bone grafting at time of implant placement is a protective factor against the development of peri-implantitis. A retrospective cohort study was conducted at the Philadelphia Veterans Affairs Medical Center from 2006 to 2013. Physician encounter notes within three months of implant placement were used to gather data about patients ' health status. Operative report notes were used to assess the use of bone grafting at time of implant placement. Implant status was assessed using dental encounter notes and radiographs from follow-up appointments at one, three, five and 10 years.

Open Reduction Internal Fixation of Mandibular Condylar Fractures: Factors Influencing Radiographic Anatomical Reduction

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Open Reduction Internal Fixation of Mandibular Condylar Fractures: Factors Influencing Radiographic Anatomical Reduction Via Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Mandible fractures occur frequently, accounting for approximately 70% of all facial fractures. Of those, fractures of the mandibular condyle account for 25-35%.1,2 Over several decades, there has been much controversy over the standard treatment method for condylar fractures, with increasing support for open reduction internal fixation (ORIF). The aim of this study is to determine negative and positive factors that may influence radiographic reduction outcomes after ORIF of mandibular condylar fractures.

Oral Rehabilitation of an Adult Cleft Palate Patient with Zygomatic Implant-supported Obturator Prosthesis: A Case Report

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Oral Rehabilitation of an Adult Cleft Palate Patient with Zygomatic Implant-supported Obturator Prosthesis: A Case Report Via Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery With advancement in medical services and their accessibility across the country, as well as growing awareness among the patient population, it is rare to find an adult with an untreated cleft lip and/or palate nowadays. Treatment of these patients to restore form and function can be challenging, often yielding less-than-satisfactory outcomes. In current literature, there have been case reports of patients with atrophic maxilla or severe maxillary defects after oncologic resections, where zygomatic implants have been utilized for fabrication of a fixed maxillary prosthesis.

Intraoperative flap warming: The novel use of a sterile cardiac forced warm air blanket for maintaining optimal flap perfusion.

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader Intraoperative flap warming: The novel use of a sterile cardiac forced warm air blanket for maintaining optimal flap perfusion. Via Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery The two-team approach in major head and neck/reconstructive surgery can occasionally lead to delays between flap harvest and detachment, due to the complexity and length of the ablative procedure. In order to minimize the potential for flap cooling and the adverse impact on microcirculation, active warming can be beneficial.(1) Intraoperative flap warming to either maintain or improve circulation during free flap harvesting has been performed with a variety of passive and active techniques,(2) however limitations such as a lack of consistent temperature regulation, lack of sterility, inability to directly visualise the flap or the need for acquisition of new equipment for a niche area meant that an ideal solution was lacking.
