Cannabinoid regulation of sex-dependent murine odorant-stimulated salivation

Scientific Reports
Salivation is easily taken for granted, but without normal salivation, simple essential tasks such as chewing and swallowing become difficult, with consequences for quality of life, nutrition and oral health.

Evaluation of Salivation Promotion by Odor, Pressure, and Thermal Stimulus for Designing Wearable Device to Increase Salivation

Sci
Saliva is an important fluid related to the maintenance of oral and systemic health, and a decrease in saliva volume causes various adverse effects. Saliva volume should be increased to avoid the adverse effects caused by decreased saliva volume.

Low Rates of Kaolin in Different Application Periods Reduce Diaphorina citri Population and Huanglongbing Incidence in Commercial Citrus Orchards

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Huanglongbing (HLB) is the most destructive citrus disease worldwide, and it has been disseminated by the Asian citrus psyllid Diaphorina citri, the vector of the causing agent Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. Although processed kaolin reduces psyllid infestation, long‐term field data from commercial orchards are limited.

Occlusal Splint Therapy in the Management of Temporomandibular Disorders—Evidence from Systematic Reviews

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This umbrella review of 21 systematic reviews evaluates occlusal splint therapy for TMD. Findings indicate mostly small beneficial or neutral effects on pain and mouth opening. Consequently, clinicians should prioritise cost‐effectiveness and patient preferences when considering splints, given the high variability in methodological quality across ...

Impact of TCAs and Gabapentin on Saliva and BMI in Adults With Xerostomia

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In adults with medication‐related xerostomia, tricyclic antidepressant and gabapentin use were not independently associated with BMI or oral dryness after adjustment. Instead, female sex, anticholinergic burden, obstructive sleep apnea, GERD, thyroid disease, depression and race demonstrated stronger associations with reduced salivary flow and greater ...

Influence of Tramadol on the Intravenous Pharmacokinetics of Dipyrone Active Metabolites in Dogs

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to compare the pharmacokinetic profile of the active dipyrone metabolites 4‐methylaminoantipyrine (MAA) and 4‐aminoantipyrine (AA) administered alone and in combination with tramadol in dogs. Nine mixed‐breed dogs, weighing 15.33 ± 2.25 kg, participated in a two‐treatment crossover design: G1 received intravenous dipyrone (25 ...
