Prevalence and factors associated with xerostomia in patients hospitalized due AIDS-related complications

HIV & AIDS Review. International Journal of HIV-Related Problems
Introduction Xerostomia is a subjective sensation of dry mouth due to lack of saliva. The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence and factors associated with the presence of hypo-salivation and xerostomia complaint in patients with ...

A new choice for human rabies diagnosis: A case report of metagenomics next-generation sequencing in diagnosis of human rabies

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2022
Purpose: We report a case of human rabies diagnosed by the metagenomics next-generation sequencing (mNGS). A 59-year-old man developed clinical rabies 20 days after he was bitten by dogs. Treatment included induction of coma initially; rabies vaccine was

Clock Genes Regulate Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics to Inhibit Sjögren Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Ca2+ signaling and metabolism have been identified as key determinants for the development of Sjögren disease (SjD), the intricate connection between them and salivary gland physiology remains poorly understood. Methods Fluorescence‐based Ca2+ imaging, RNA sequencing, and mitochondrial activity were used to investigate the effects of
