Abstract Background Periodontal clinical trials commonly use surrogate end points (e.g., probing pocket depth [PPD], clinical attachment level [CAL], bleeding on probing [BoP], and composite scores such as the Periodontal Risk Score [PRS]) for efficiency, yet tooth loss, treatment burden/cost, and re‐treatment are the definitive patient‐relevant ...

Periodontitis and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease
Abstract Objective Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects that extend beyond the oral cavity and contribute to systemic immune and metabolic dysregulation. Chronic liver diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive phenotypes, have emerged as major global ...

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.
