A semi-parametric Bayesian model of inter- and intra-examiner agreement for periodontal probing depth [PDF]

Annals of Applied Statistics 2014, Vol. 8, No. 1, 331-351, 2014
Periodontal probing depth is a measure of periodontitis severity. We develop a Bayesian hierarchical model linking true pocket depth to both observed and recorded values of periodontal probing depth, while permitting correlation among measures obtained from the same mouth and between duplicate examiners' measures obtained at the same periodontal site ...

Haptics in periodontics

Journal of Indian Society of Periodontology, 2014
Throughout history, education has evolved, and new teaching/learning methods have been developed. These methods have helped us come a long way in understanding the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of the oral cavity. However, there is still no one good way to render a student/clinician the tactile sense for detecting calculus/caries ...

Antibacterial effects of natural compounds on biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1426-1433, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Streptococcus mutans is the main cariogenic pathogen in the oral cavity, considered to contribute toward oral diseases. S. mutans is predominantly entrapped in plaque biofilms. Objectives In this study, we surveyed the antibacterial activity of natural compounds in terms of the biofilm production of S. mutans. Material and Methods We extracted

Association between metabolic syndrome and periodontitis: The role of lipids, inflammatory cytokines, altered host response, and the microbiome

Periodontology, 2021
Periodontitis has been associated with many systemic diseases and conditions, including metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions that occur concomitantly and together they increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and double ...

Circadian modulation of microglial physiological processes and immune responses

Glia, Volume 71, Issue 2, Page 155-167, February 2023., 2023
Main Points Microglia are rhythmic cells with an oscillatory expression in clock genes, cytokines, and other microglial markers. Microglial circadian rhythms determine their physiological function and immune responses. Abstract Microglia is considered the central nervous system (CNS) resident macrophages that establish an innate immune response against
