Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Structural valve deterioration in the Mitroflow biological heart valve prosthesis [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2017 Concern has been raised regarding the long-term durability of the Mitroflow biological heart valve prosthesis. Our aim was to assess the incidence of structural valve degeneration (SVD) for the Mitroflow bioprosthesis in a nationwide study in Denmark including all patients alive in Denmark who had received a Mitroflow aortic bioprosthesis since 2000 ...

Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,

Aortic Valve Reconstruction with Ozaki Technique
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2021 Modern bioprostheses offer a complete and definitive solution to elderly patients who need aortic valve surgery. Nonetheless, the scenario is more demanding when dealing with younger and less fragile patients. In this setting, any prosthetic aortic valve
