Environmental and lifestyle determinants of skin ageing: Association between skin dryness and dyspigmentation in Chinese women

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
The study of photoageing visible features in an Asian female cohort from rural and urban locations and across seasons evidenced a consistent correlation between skin dyspigmentation and dryness, suggesting mechanistic interplay, and emphasizing that these key concerns of ageing skin could be addressed more efficiently taken together.

Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and
