Timing of Re‐Evaluation After Periodontal Therapy: A Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Re‐evaluation at 3 or 6 months resulted in similar clinical and patient‐reported outcomes. NSPT frequently failed to achieve EoT at pockets with deep intrabony defects (≥ 3 mm), while EoT were frequently achieved at sites with mainly horizontal bony defects.

Increased p‐Tau181 Levels After Overnight Wakefulness Are Associated With Neuroticism in Young Women

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Overnight wakefulness, mimicking night shift conditions, impaired morning vigilance in healthy, reproductive‐aged women, regardless of estradiol or neuroticism. However, the overnight wakefulness‐related rise in the Alzheimer's disease blood biomarker p‐Tau181 was greater in women with higher neuroticism, suggesting that neurobiological vulnerability ...

Delta‐9‐Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) Before Bedtime: Feasibility and Mechanistic Pilot Study on Sleep and Cardiac Autonomic Activity

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disordered sleep is a common reason individuals report using cannabis, yet the physiological effects of Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) on sleep and autonomic regulation remain incompletely understood. Early studies reported acute sleep‐promoting effects of Δ9‐THC, but chronic use has been associated with disrupted sleep and possible ...

Comparative evaluation of the attractiveness of new polyethylene screens versus West African tiny target for the control of tsetse flies

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The material has no significant difference in captures (non‐shiny cotton‐polyester screens vs. the shiny polyethylene screens), but the vertical screen attracted significantly more G. tachinoides for each type of material. Full white horizontal screen was significantly lower than the reference WATT.

Diurnal Variation and Impairment of Postprandial Glucose‐Insulin Responses and Lipid Rhythms in Simulated Shift Work

open access: yesNutrition Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shift work is associated with insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and metabolic syndrome, but how consecutive meals at the same clock times differentially shape postprandial metabolism in day‐ and night‐shifts remains unclear. This study used a unique simulated shift work intervention with four consecutive meals and high‐resolution sampling to ...
