Repeated intradermal lipopolysaccharide challenge responses in healthy volunteers: Implications for clinical pharmacology studies

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Intradermal application of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a Toll‐like receptor 4 agonist, induces a local inflammatory response and is used as a human challenge model to evaluate the pharmacodynamics of investigational medicinal products. While currently applied in a single, parallel‐group setting, alternative within‐subject designs involving repeated ...

Voclosporin‐induced gingival enlargement: A case report

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Drug‐influenced gingival enlargement (DIGE) is a recognized adverse effect of certain medications, particularly immunosuppressants like cyclosporin and tacrolimus. However, there have been no documented cases of DIGE associated with voclosporin, a newer calcineurin inhibitor used primarily to treat lupus nephritis.

Perigraftitis treatment and histology: A case report

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Currently, the two diagnoses of inflammatory peri‐implant diseases are peri‐implant mucositis and peri‐implantitis. The etiology of peri‐implant mucositis and peri‐implantitis is bacterial colonization of the implant. Thus, removal of the implant should eliminate the infection and allow the inflammation to resolve. However, at least
