The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Platelet‐Rich Fibrins as Local Drug‐Delivery Carriers
Autologous platelet concentrates (APCs), particularly platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), act as biologically active fibrin scaffolds, capable of entrapping and gradually releasing therapeutic agents in oral and periodontal therapy. The incorporation of bioactive compounds, such as antibiotics, antifungals, vitamins, antidiabetic drugs, and exosomes, enhances ...

Is sleep affected after microgravity and hypergravity exposure? A pilot study
Summary Sleep is known to be affected in space travel and in residents of the international space station. But little is known about the direct effects of gravity changes on sleep, if other factors, such as sleep conditions, are kept constant. Here, as a first exploration, we investigated sleep before and after exposure to short bouts of microgravity ...

Whole‐Night Gentle Rocking Improves Sleep in Poor Sleepers With Insomnia Complaints
ABSTRACT Specific brain oscillations can be manipulated during sleep to improve sleep quality and memory performance. We previously demonstrated that continuous rocking stimulation (0.25 Hz, lateral movement) applied to good sleepers during sleep enhanced stable deep sleep, boosted NREM oscillations (spindles and slow waves) and memory consolidation ...

Prisoners of the Body: The Link Between Interoception and Sleep Paralysis
ABSTRACT Sleep paralysis (SP) is a REM sleep parasomnia characterized by transient motor paralysis during sleep onset or awakening. It is a terrifying experience often accompanied by vivid hallucinations. Although it is classically linked to narcolepsy, isolated SP in healthy individuals offers a valuable model to investigate the interaction between ...

Abstract Purpose Asylum seekers often struggle to recall and report their experiences during asylum interviews. This may occur for several reasons, ranging from communication challenges in high‐context cultures (relying more on indirect and context‐oriented communication) and low‐context cultures (relying more on direct and explicit communication) to ...
