AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

ABSTRACT This study investigates how the expression ‘critical thinking’ (CT) is understood and used by the general public in the United States, using the tools of experimental philosophy. Based on responses from 288 non‐philosopher participants, our findings suggest that CT is commonly associated with problem solving, decision making and logical ...

Abstract Background Although widely studied and reported for more than 30 years, the molecular basis of Rh D‐negativity has remained unexplored in several regions of the world, including in Indonesia, Southeast Asia. Study Design and Methods A subset of 436 Indonesian blood donors originally typed D‐negative (D–) by routine serological testing was ...
