Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Enterococcus faecalis and Endodontic Treatment Failure: A Qualitative Systematic Review of Its Role and Elimination Strategies

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to synthesize evidence on the influence of Enterococcus faecalis on endodontic treatment failure and strategies for its elimination. This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and was registered in PROSPERO (CRD420251022741).

Gasdermin‐Mediated Pyroptosis: Novel Strategies Against Colorectal Cancer

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Pyroptosis is a double‐edged sword in colorectal cancer (CRC): chronic low‐grade pyroptosis promotes tumor progression, whereas acute induction of pyroptosis in cancer cells triggers antitumor immunity and enhances therapeutic response. Targeting gasdermin‐mediated pyroptosis represents a promising strategy for CRC treatment.

Targeted, receptor‐mediated delivery of a masked d‐amino acid cell‐penetrating peptide for cell‐specific phototoxicity

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A targeted phototoxic peptide selectively accumulates in cells expressing chemokine‐like receptor 1 (CMKLR1). Phototoxicity of the native peptide is low, but cleavage by lysosomal protease cathepsin B releases a 6‐tetramethylrhodamine (TMR) labeled nona‐ᴅ‐arginine which mediates lysosomal rupture and cell death upon irradiation.

Ozonized Hydrogel and Chlorhexidine Gel for Peri‐Implant Mucositis: A 24‐Month Randomized Controlled Trial

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This randomized controlled trial evaluated the 24‐month effectiveness of a nonsurgical intervention for peri‐implant mucositis, comparing a 15% ozonated sunflower oil hydrogel with a 1% chlorhexidine gel. Methods Thirty patients with 360 peri‐implant mucositis sites were treated in a split‐mouth design, receiving both therapies in ...

Photodynamic inactivation increases cell death rate on persistent Staphylococcus aureus

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Persistent bacteria have the ability to survive extended periods of antibiotic stress by entering a metabolically dormant state. This study investigated persistence formation in two S. aureus strains and evaluated the effects of PDI using curcumin. Post‐PDI time‐kill assays conducted after metabolic recovery showed a higher rate of bacterial death ...

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in Candida spp. biofilms: In vitro and in vivo protocols

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This review addresses the critical challenges in translating in vitro antimicrobial photodynamic therapy protocols to in vivo models, with a particular focus on the hurdles of standardization. The vast diversity in photosensitizers and light parameters across different target cells and models requires a rigorous optimization process.

Etiology, pathogenesis and treatment of peri‐implantitis: A European perspective

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Peri‐implantitis is a plaque‐associated pathological condition occurring in tissues around dental implants. It is characterized by inflammation in the peri‐implant mucosa and progressive loss of supporting bone. Over the last 30 years, peri‐implantitis has become a major disease burden in dentistry.

Advantages of horizontal centrifugation of platelet‐rich fibrin in regenerative medicine and dentistry

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this comprehensive review was to evaluate comparative studies on horizontal and fixed‐angle centrifugation methods for preparing platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF). Furthermore, additional studies utilizing horizontal PRF (H‐PRF) were systematically investigated.

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.
