Dextran sodium sulfate confounds causal role of periodontitis in inflammatory bowel disease

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Emerging evidence supports a bidirectional link between periodontitis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To investigate this relationship, experimental models commonly use dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) to induce colitis. However, DSS is presumed to selectively affect the colon, and its potential off‐target effects on the oral ...

Electrolyzed saline as an alternative to chlorhexidine: Antimicrobial and biofilm volume outcomes in a 4‐day non‐brushing randomized controlled clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The biofilm‐inhibitory effects of electrolyzed saline (EOS) vary widely due to differences in formulations and treatment methods. This study analyzed the impact of EOS on key oral microbial species and used serial 3D‐intraoral scans to evaluate its effects on de novo biofilm formation.

Association between serum α‐Klotho levels and severity of periodontitis in a representative U.S. population

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease, is linked to systemic conditions such as cardiovascular and kidney disease. Serum α‐Klotho, an anti‐aging protein with anti‐inflammatory properties, has been associated with systemic diseases, but its role in periodontitis is unclear.

Choice and Death: Analysis of Medical Assistance in Dying for Head and Neck Cancer in Ontario

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The uptake of MAiD for head and neck cancer (HNC) has been steadily increasing since 2016, when MAiD first became available in Canada. Our study projects a substantial increase in the future use of MAiD for patients with HNC. As such, our health system needs to re‐evaluate and implement the necessary infrastructure to support the projected increase in ...
