An Evaluation of a New Ultrasonic Water Irrigator in the Management of Gingival Health: A Randomised Study

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This randomised, single‐blind, controlled study aimed to compare daily adjunctive use of an ultrasonic water irrigation device to dental floss in controlling plaque and gingival inflammation in patients with gingivitis. Methods Participants were randomly allocated to either daily use of an ultrasonic water irrigator or dental ...

Cleanse, Perfuse, Retain (CPR) Protocol for Management of Postoperative Infections With d‐PTFE Membranes: Clinical Reports of Three Cases

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Postoperative infection is a serious complication of bone augmentation procedures, potentially resulting in graft failure, basal bone resorption, and spread of infection to adjacent anatomic spaces. This paper introduces the CPR (Cleanse, Perfuse, and Retain) protocol and illustrates its clinical application in the management of low‐

Relationship between the environment and the occurrence of invasive pumpkinseed Lepomis gibbosus in lotic and lentic habitats

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The pumpkinseed Lepomis gibbosus is a freshwater fish species native to North America. It has been introduced to Europe, where it is recognized as one of the worst aquatic invaders due to its high adaptability and invasive potential. This study aimed to determine the presence of L. gibbosus in small to medium‐sized water bodies, both lotic and

Points vs. passes: A comparison between electric fishing techniques for sampling fish populations in upland headwater streams

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Point‐abundance sampling by electric fishing (PASE) was compared with single‐pass (DF1) and triple‐pass depletion sampling (DF3) electric fishing on the same reaches of four headwater streams sampled over multiple years in the Ribble catchment, UK. Juvenile salmonids, mostly brown trout Salmo trutta with some Atlantic salmon S.

S‑glutathionylation of MaWRKY44 orchestrates a MaZFP139‐MaWRKY44‐MaGSTU07 cascade to enhance banana cold tolerance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In banana, at low temperatures (7°C), the transcription factor MaZFP139 activates MaWRKY44 expression. MaWRKY44 binds to the W‐box sites in the promoter of the glutathione S‐transferase gene MaGSTU07 to enhance reactive oxygen species scavenging. S‐glutathionylation protects MaWRKY44 from oxidation‐induced degradation, reinforcing antioxidant defenses ...

CryoFluorSEM – A new approach for fluorescence and EM imaging of cryofractured plant samples

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Cryo‐scanning electron microscopy (CryoSEM) permits the preparation and detailed imaging of bulky samples while keeping them in a hydrated state. For plant biology, cryofractures give information on cell ultrastructure and tissue organisation within a much larger context that is the whole organ or organism.

Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) in brackish water gives rise to adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...
