PAROTID SIALOLITHIASIS – A CASE REPORT WITH EMPHASIS ON DIAGNOSTIC AIDS

Cumhuriyet Dental Journal, 2014
Sialoliths are calcified organic matter that forms within the secretory system of the major salivary glands. Salivary gland calculi account for the most common disease of the salivary glands, and may range from tiny particles to several centimetres in ...

Modern management of salivary calculi

, 2005
Background: The aim was to investigate the results of a minimally invasive approach to the management of salivary calculi. Methods: Four hundred and fifty-five salivary calculi (323 submandibular and 132 parotid) were treated using extracorporeal shock ...

Bacterial biofilm in salivary gland stones: cause or consequence? [PDF]

, 2016
Objective. The pathogenesis of salivary calculi is not yet clear; however, 2 theories have been formulated: (1) ‘‘the classic theory,’’ based on calcium microdeposits in serous and ductal acinous cells, successively discharged into the ducts; (2 ...

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...

Extracorporeal electromagnetic shock-wave lithotripsy for salivary gland stones

, 1996
Sialoadenectomy for sialolithiasis is necessary when the stone cannot be removed through the salivary duct. In addition, extracorporeal. shock-wave lithotripsy has recently become available for this purpose.

Targeting Post‐Irradiation Thyroid Dysfunction: Electrospun Scaffolds As A Dual‐Action Approach for Antioxidant and Immune Modulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Radiation‐induced hypothyroidism follows head and neck radiotherapy due to oxidative stress and inflammation. Electrospun polycaprolactone scaffolds containing adenosine have potential to modulate thyroid repair. Scaffolds enhance thyrocyte proliferation, antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase and catalase, reduce senescence and apoptosis markers ...

A Revolution in the Management of Obstructive Salivary Gland Disease

, 2006
Salivary gland obstruction is the commonest cause of salivary gland disease presenting to the general dental practitioner. To date, with the exception of the most surgically accessible stones found within the anterior ducts, there has been little ...

Ultrasensitive Detection of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus Infections Using Multivalent DNA Nanostructure‐Enabled Lateral Flow Assay

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A multivalent DNA nanostructure‐enabled lateral flow assay was developed for rapid, ultrasensitive detection of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) nucleocapsid protein. Designer net‐shaped DNA nanostructures (DNA‐Net) presenting PEDV‐specific aptamers achieved ~1000‐fold enhanced binding, enabling detection of viral copies with Ct ≤ 37.42 within 10
