Australian clinical practice guideline: diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a rare condition. The pathogenesis is incompletely understood; however, interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) is a major mediator. The clinical presentation is heterogeneous, from mild constitutional symptoms to severe multi‐organ failure.

High‐Dimensional Immune Profiling Identifies Circulating NKT‐Like Cells Associated With Severity Outcome in Acute Pancreatitis at Disease Onset

Immunology, EarlyView.
High‐dimensional spectral cytometry of peripheral blood mononuclear cells at hospital admission revealed that acute pancreatitis patients who subsequently developed moderately‐to‐severe disease exhibited a specific reduction of circulating CD2 + CD8dim NKT‐like cells, which appear to acquire an altered cytotoxic‐like phenotype upon IL‐15 stimulation ...

Cumulative effects of lifelong systemic excess growth hormone on postcranial skeletal morphology in adult mice

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Our μCT‐based pilot study reveals size and shape disparity in the adult postcranial skeleton of growth‐hormone model (bGH) mice relative to wild‐type mice. bGH mice have larger and more sexually dimorphic bones, with a systemic radiodensity increase in bony sesamoids and associated, but typically uncalcified, soft tissues.

The Expression and Potential Role of MicroRNAs in Oral Lichen Planus

Journal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic T‐cell‐mediated immune disease of unknown aetiology. MicroRNA (miRNAs) are short non‐coding RNAs capable of regulating mRNA and may have roles in T‐cell‐related diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the profile of miRNAs in OLP patients and its interaction with potential target ...

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

New Insights Into Diffuse Sclerosing Osteomyelitis: Is There a Role of ANA and Vitamin B6?

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Object Diffuse sclerosing osteomyelitis is a poorly understood chronic disease, which appears predominantly in the mandible. Female patients are more often affected than men. DSO is an ultra‐rare disease and incidence is unknown; diagnosis can be very challenging; pathogenesis is poorly understood.

Oral Microbiome in Systemic Autoimmune Diseases: A Systematic Review

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The oral cavity represents a key but underexplored interface between host immunity and microbial communities. The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize current literature on oral microbiota alterations in systemic autoimmune diseases.

Laser Acupuncture on the Management of Xerostomia in Sjögren's Disease: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study evaluated the efficacy of photobiomodulation (PBM) at acupuncture points for managing xerostomia in patients with Sjögren's Disease. Material and Methods In this randomized, double‐blind clinical trial, 50 patients were assigned to PBM group (n = 22) or sham‐PBM group (n = 28).

Diagnostic Delay in Desquamative Gingivitis: An Observational Cohort Study

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Non‐plaque‐induced gingivitis encompasses a heterogeneous group of conditions as defined in the 2017 Classification of Periodontal and Peri‐Implant Diseases and Conditions. Recognition is challenging and often leads to diagnostic delay.
