Stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 regulates expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and osteopontin after tooth extraction

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The present study aimed to investigate the expression of stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 (SDF‐1) after tooth extraction in rats and its regulatory effect on the expression of osteopontin (OPN) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

Comparative efficacy of novel bioactive glass versus sodium fluoride toothpaste for dentin hypersensitivity

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This first‐in‐human clinical study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a bioglass incorporated in a toothpaste, in reducing dentin hypersensitivity (DH) compared to a sodium fluoride (NaF) toothpaste over a 2‐week period. Methods A double‐blind, randomized, parallel‐arm, proof‐of‐concept clinical trial was conducted with 46

Oxymatrine Inhibits Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition to Alleviate Airway Remodeling in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease by Suppressing the TGF‐β1/Smad Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored the therapeutic efficacy of oxymatrine (OMT, C15H24N2O2) in a murine model of cigarette smoke (CS)‐induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and elucidated its underlying mechanisms. A COPD model was established in mice through prolonged exposure to CS, followed by intraperitoneal administration of OMT (50 mg/kg)

The Malignant Transformation Rate of Oral Carcinoma In Situ

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Oral carcinoma in situ (OCIS), where cancer cells are confined to the epithelium, is a Stage 0 malignant condition known to progress to invasive oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The rate and timeframe of this transformation are not well delineated.

Practical Applications of Secondary/Extractive Electrospray Ionization (SESI): A Versatile Tool for Real‐Time Chemical Analysis

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the 1980s, researchers discovered the remarkable ability of electrospray plumes to effectively ionize gas‐phase molecules via secondary ionization. Around 20 years later—coinciding with the ambient mass spectrometry revolution—secondary electrospray ionization (SESI) and extractive electrospray ionization (EESI) coupled to mass spectrometry

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Signatures of Progression and Phenoconversion in Prodromal Synucleinopathies

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Isolated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a prodromal manifestation of synucleinopathies and provides a critical window to identify early markers of progression to Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).

Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Movement Disorders, from Principles to a Systematic Review of Evidence

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The vagus nerve (VN), the principal component of the parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), mediates bidirec communication between the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral organs. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), delivered through invasive (iVNS) or non‐invasive (transcutaneous cervical [tcVNS] and ...
