Choosing Wisely: Key Feature Examinations as a Powerful Approach to Foster Clinical Reasoning in Dental Education

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Clinical reasoning is considered a core skill for physicians, and its training should already be addressed in undergraduate medical education. At the University Medical Center Göttingen, students have been able to engage in formative key feature examinations since 2013.

Comparison Between the 2017 EFP/AAP and CDC/AAP Case Definitions on Periodontal Status and Their Association With Risk Factors in an Adult Norwegian Population—Insights From the Tromsø Study: Tromsø7

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To describe the prevalence, extent and severity of periodontitis in an adult Norwegian population, using the 2017 EFP/AAP and CDC/AAP case definitions, and their associations with potential risk factors for periodontitis. A secondary aim was to explore how the stage and grade of periodontitis shifted when complexity and risk factors

Osteoprotegerin mediates adipogenesis in obesity

Journal of Advanced Research
Introduction: Adipogenesis, the process of white adipose tissue expansion, plays a critical role in the development of obesity. Osteoprotegerin (OPG), known for its role in bone metabolism regulation, emerges as a potential regulator in mediating ...

Prevalence of Hypercementosis in Radiographic Studies: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis With Clinical Implications for Endodontic Assessment

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypercementosis is a non‐neoplastic condition characterized by excessive cementum deposition along the root surface, resulting in altered apical morphology. Although often asymptomatic and detected incidentally on radiographs, changes in apical contour may influence anatomical complexity in endodontic treatment.

Robust estimation of dimension reduction space [PDF]

Most dimension reduction methods based on nonparametric smoothing are highly sensitive to outliers and to data coming from heavy-tailed distributions. We show that the recently proposed methods by Xia et al.

Exploring the Potential of the PerioAI System to Support Periodontal Clinical Decision Making: A Proof‐of‐Principle Study

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To explore the potential of PerioAI, an artificial intelligence system integrating intraoral scanning and cone‐beam CT, to automatically measure gingival margin‐to‐bone distance (GBD) and convert it into AI‐derived probing depth (AI‐PD), and to evaluate whether AI‐PD may provide additional information to support periodontal clinical ...

Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

Harnessing the Therapeutic Potential of Cell Secretomes and Extracellular Vesicles for Craniofacial Regenerative Applications

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The scoping review summarizes the current preclinical and clinical evidence for the use of “cell‐free” therapies in craniofacial (periodontal, bone and soft‐tissue) regeneration. It also aims to highlight key challenges and strategies towards the clinical translation of these therapies.

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.
