A scoping review on hyposalivation associated with systemic conditions: the role of physical stimulation in the treatment approaches

BMC Oral Health, 2023
Background Several systemic conditions can result in distinct degrees of salivary gland damage and consequent hypofunction. The development of successful management schemes is highly challenging due to the complexity of saliva.

Exploring the salivary proteome following intraglandular mesenchymal stromal cell therapy for radiation-induced hyposalivation in previous head and neck cancer patients: a secondary study protocol for the MESRIX-III, randomised, controlled trial [PDF]

Trials
Background Intraglandular therapy with adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) for radiation-induced xerostomia and hyposalivation has shown promising effects on the salivary flow rate and in patient-reported outcomes.
