Bimanual instrument suturing technique for periodontal and implant microsurgery: A technical note

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In the traditional suturing technique, the dominant hand (DH) holds a needle holder, and the non‐dominant hand (NH) performs manual ties without the aid of an instrument. In periodontal and implant microsurgery, finer sutures and needles, e.g., 7‐0 in International Organization for Standardization units, are used, which could be ...

Nutritional and environmental determinants of maturation and disruption of the early life gut microbiome: A narrative review

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract The first 1000 days of life represent a critical window for gut microbiome assembly, with lifelong implications for child growth, immune development, and disease risk. This review synthesizes evidence on maternal, perinatal, and especially nutritional factors that influence early‐life intestinal colonization and highlights the consequences of ...

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...
