Acute Effects of Smoking and Vaping on Markers of Vascular Function via Quantitative MRI

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background E‐cigarettes contribute to endothelial dysfunction, a known cause of systemic atherosclerotic disease that cannot be adequately characterized by a single physiological parameter measured at a single vascular bed. Purpose/Hypothesis Quantify and compare acute effects of smoking or vaping with tobacco cigarettes (t‐cigs), nicotinized ...

5.0 T Coronary Magnetic Resonance Angiography in Calcified Coronary Arteries: Diagnostic Performance Compared With Computed Tomography Using Invasive Angiography as Reference

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) often overestimates stenosis in calcified plaques due to blooming artifacts. The performance of 5.0 T Coronary MR angiography (CMRA) in calcified arteries remains unclear. Purpose To assess plaque effects on 5.0 T CMRA image quality and compare diagnostic performance with CCTA.

Biomaterials for resolution of peri‐implantitis: Consensus report of Workgroup 2 of the IADR Implantology Research Group Best Evidence Consensus Symposium on Peri‐Implant Disease and Its Treatment

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a destructive disease affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants. Biomaterials may be applied during surgical treatment to reconstruct bony defects and support soft tissue healing. However, current evidence is unclear if these treatments increase the likelihood of peri‐implantitis resolution.

Betaine‐, xylitol‐, and extra virgin olive oil–based toothpaste modulates inflammation and oral nitric oxide pathway: Clinical trial in gingivitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gingivitis is a prevalent and reversible inflammatory condition driven by microbial dysbiosis. Beyond plaque control, interest has grown in oral hygiene formulations capable of modulating inflammation while preserving key microbial functions. Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), together with xylitol and betaine, has demonstrated clinical

Smoking effects on root coverage outcomes between 3 and 12 months: A prospective cohort study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate the impact of smoking on root coverage outcomes, comparing healing responses at 3–12 months following coronally advanced flap with a connective tissue graft (CAF+CTG). Methods This prospective cohort study included 27 participants (13 smokers, 14 non‐smokers) who required root coverage for a single Cairo

Impact of toothbrush type and periodontal phenotype on root coverage stability: A 6‐year observational follow‐up of a randomized clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This 6‐year observational follow‐up of a randomized, parallel‐arm clinical trial evaluated the association between toothbrush type and periodontal phenotype on the long‐term stability of the gingival margin (GM) following coronally advanced flap (CAF) surgery.

Associations between periodontal inflammation and OHIP‐14 scores: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background More evidence is needed to assess the association between periodontitis and Oral Health‐Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) quantitatively. We hypothesized that periodontal inflammation is correlated with a worsening in quality of life and aimed to test this in this study.
