Surveying immune and inflammatory alterations in periodontitis among individuals with Down syndrome: A preliminary cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) are particularly vulnerable to early‐onset and rapidly progressing periodontitis, yet the local immune‐inflammatory alterations that contribute to this susceptibility are not fully understood. This study aimed to characterize cytokine profiles in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) from individuals ...

Usefulness of Gamma‐Glutamyl Transferase and Sequential Carbohydrate‐Deficient Transferrin for Unhealthy Alcohol Use Screening in Indigenous Communities

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unhealthy alcohol use (UAU) screening facilitates identification of patients with alcohol use problems for intervention. This study evaluates the usefulness of gamma‐glutamyl transferase (GGT) and sequential percentage of carbohydrate‐deficient transferrin (%CDT) in community screening for UAU.

Lipofuscin: The Missing Link in the Worsening of Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Lipofuscin, also known as the age pigment, is a permanent autofluorescent intracellular deposit that accumulates with aging or oxidative stress, thereby interfering with cellular function. This study revealed significantly larger deposits of lipofuscin in the lateral pharyngeal wall muscles of patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared
