The role of acquired host immunity in periodontal diseases
Abstract The aim of this narrative review is to relate the contribution of European researchers to the complex topic of the host immune system in periodontal disease, focusing on acquired immunity. Other chapters in this volume will address the genetics and autoantibody responses and other forms of immunity to periodontal disease.

Association of red blood cell transfusions with periventricular leukomalacia in very preterm infants
Abstract Background and Objectives Red blood cell (RBC) transfusions have been associated with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and adverse long‐term neurodevelopmental outcomes in very preterm infants. Although lower transfusion thresholds reduce the incidence of ROP, they have not improved neurological outcome. Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) is a
