Anxiety reduction via brief intervention in dentally anxious patients : a randomized controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Aim: To compare the degree of anxiety reduction in dentally anxious patients attending a Dental Access Centre where the dentist did or did not receive the patients’ assessment of dental anxiety.

Neuroimmune Microenvironment Reprogramming via Immuno‐piezoelectric Transducers for Synergistic Stem Cell Therapy in Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A novel immuno‐piezoelectric transducer is innovatively developed. This device promotes neural stem cell (NSC) differentiation and maturation via ultrasound‐induced electrical stimulation and it amplifies the therapeutic efficacy of NSC in traumatic brain injury (TBI) by modulating the immune microenvironment. This piezoelectric transducer with “immune‐

Evidence that process simulations reduce anxiety in patients receiving dental treatment: randomized exploratory trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Process simulations – mental simulations that ask people to imagine the process of completing a task – have been shown to decrease anxiety in students facing hypothetical or psychological threats in the short term.

Lithium‐Charged Gold Nanoparticles: A New Powerful Tool for Lithium Delivery and Modulation of Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces glutathione‐stabilized gold nanoparticles for targeted lithium delivery (LiG‐AuNPs), enabling the controlled modulation of Glycogen Synthase Kinase‐3 (GSK‐3β). These non‐toxic, 2‐nm particles release lithium intracellularly, effectively inhibiting GSK‐3β in the brain without significant plasma lithium alterations.

Reducing Anxiety for Dental Visits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This work addresses children’s (under 6 years of age) fear and apprehension to visit dental clinics. We present a bespoke interactive Virtual Reality reproduction of the physical dental clinic, augmented with virtual characters and enriched with gamification style information for a richer user experience.

Cortico‐Striatal‐Midbrain Circuit Dysregulation Underlying MK‐801 Induced Impulsivity and the Ameliorative Effects of SEP

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Impulsivity is a symptom across multiple psychiatric disorders, yet its neural basis remains elusive. This study shows that the NMDAR antagonist MK‐801 elevates dopamine release and disrupts neuronal selectivity in the nucleus accumbens, leading to impulsive behavior.

Patient-centered endodontic outcomes: a narrative review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
IntroductionRoot canal treatment (RCT) success criteria inform us of the path to bony healing and of prognostic factors, but tell little about how the patient perceives, feels, or values RCT.

Forelimb Motor Learning and Memory Consolidation Drives Distinct Oligodendrocyte Plasticity to Regulate Task‐related Neuronal Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Genetic and chemical tracking of oligodendrogenesis, combining fiber photometric neuronal activity recording, reveals that distinct oligodendrocyte plasticities are adopted during different phases of motor learning to fine‐tune task‐related neuronal activity, with a preferential involvement of oligodendrogenesis suppression and node lengthening (type 2
