Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

Periodontal considerations during orthodontic intrusion and extrusion in healthy and reduced periodontium

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract In patients with advanced periodontal disease, pathological tooth migration may occur, which may require subsequent orthodontic treatment for both aesthetic and functional purposes. When planning orthodontic treatment mechanics, intrusive or extrusive forces are frequently indicated.

Accuracy of surrogate outcomes in predicting true endpoints of surgical periodontal therapy. A narrative review with a 20‐year longitudinal analysis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontal clinical trials commonly use surrogate end points (e.g., probing pocket depth [PPD], clinical attachment level [CAL], bleeding on probing [BoP], and composite scores such as the Periodontal Risk Score [PRS]) for efficiency, yet tooth loss, treatment burden/cost, and re‐treatment are the definitive patient‐relevant ...

Beyond biologic sex: Exploratory insights into the heterogeneity of hormonal and contextual drivers of periodontal and peri‐implant outcomes

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontal and peri‐implant diseases are multifactorial inflammatory conditions influenced by microbial, host, hormonal, genetic, and behavioral factors. Although sex‐based differences in immune and inflammatory responses are well recognized in medicine, the extent to which biologic sex and hormonal status influence the prevalence,

Ground mammal colonization of restored wildlife corridors in the tropical uplands of north‐eastern Australia

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Since European settlement, Australia's Wet Tropics bioregion has been extensively cleared, leaving a mosaic of rainforest fragments, crops, pastures, orchards, and human settlement. Fragment isolation leads to declines in faunal diversity and genetic variability, effects potentially exacerbated by climate change. Restoring habitat
