Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.

Lack of Efficacy of Low‐Dose Cyclobenzaprine on Electromyographic Activity Related to Sleep Bruxism: A Randomized Crossover Double‐Blind Placebo‐Controlled Clinical Trial

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep bruxism (SB) is a motor activity characterized by repetitive masticatory muscle contractions during sleep, commonly associated with tooth damage and jaw pain or headache. Pharmacological management strategies targeting its central nervous system‐related mechanisms remain limited.

The bodily self in fibromyalgia: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of body image, body representation, and interoceptive dysfunction

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Fibromyalgia is a complex chronic pain condition associated with widespread symptoms and perceptual distortions beyond nociception. Alterations in body image, body representation, and interoception may contribute to symptom severity and reduced quality of life. This review synthesizes evidence related to body image in adults with fibromyalgia.

Understanding extracellular vesicles in antiaging

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Aging is a multifactorial process marked by gradual cellular dysregulation, regulated by hallmarks, including genomic instability, mitochondrial dysregulation, and chronic inflammation. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, have emerged as pivotal mediators of cell‐to‐cell communication with potential roles in both ...

Some applications of linear response theory to media with mechanical relaxation phenomena

, 2007
The general linear response theory it applied for study mechanical relaxations phenomena in continuous media. It is shown that phenomenological and state coefficients, in viscoanelastic media can be obtained as function of quantities which are ...

Turning over new ideas in human skeletal muscle proteostasis: What do we know and where to from here?

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the turnover of proteins in tissues gives information as to how external stimuli result in phenotypic change. Nowhere is such phenotypic change more conspicuous than skeletal muscle, which can be effectively remodelled by increased loading, ageing and unloading (disuse), all of which are subject to modification by nutrition and ...

Redox‐regulated signalling of adaptations to contractile activity in skeletal muscle: Implications for age‐related muscle weakness

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle adaptation to contractile activity is modulated by redox signalling, primarily through reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Early research framed ROS as deleterious byproducts of exercise, but subsequent studies have established their roles as signalling molecules involved in mitochondrial biogenesis,
