MRI Safety Considerations for Permanent Magnet Implants in Muscle

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Permanent magnet implants are used with several medical and assistive devices, such as cochlear implants, dental attachments, and prosthetic control, but raise caution for MR imaging. Previous work has evaluated several magnet implants for position and magnetization stability, as well as for image artifacts under MRI.

Efficacy of soft tissue augmentation in the maxillary esthetic region: A 5‐year randomized controlled trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Soft tissue grafting at dental implant sites has been proposed to enhance esthetic outcomes. A xenogeneic collagen matrix (XCM) was introduced as an alternative grafting material to connective tissue. Only short‐term results are yet available.

Stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 regulates expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and osteopontin after tooth extraction

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The present study aimed to investigate the expression of stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 (SDF‐1) after tooth extraction in rats and its regulatory effect on the expression of osteopontin (OPN) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

Peri‐implant hypoxia as a potential barrier against ferroptotic mechanisms during peri‐implant diseases: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hypoxia modulates inflammation and oxidative stress through hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α). Ferroptosis, an iron‐dependent cell death process, is regulated by glutathione peroxidase‐4 (GPX4) and involves lipid peroxidation markers like malondialdehyde (MDA).

The association of periodontal inflammation and inflammatory markers with cognitive dysfunction: A case–control study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the association of inflammatory markers in saliva, plasma, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with cognitive decline and periodontitis. Methods Patients with Alzheimer disease (AD, n = 52), mild cognitive impairment (MCI, n = 51), subjective cognitive decline (SCD, n = 51), and controls (n = 76) between 50 and 80 ...
