Many scholars have studied the relationship between obesity and periodontitis. The relationship between different obesity indicators and periodontitis seems to vary. In this study, we would like to explore the relationship between three commonly used obesity indicators, WWI (weight-adjusted-waist index), BMI (body mass index), WtHR (waist-to-height ratio), and periodontitis, and try to find the most clinically valuable indicators.

Article Synopsis
  • The introduction of p-type disordered tellurium oxide enhances device capabilities by enabling dual-mode reconfigurability, allowing it to function as both a logic transistor and a neuromorphic device.
  • The disordered surface of the tellurium oxide film improves oxygen adsorption, which helps regulate carrier concentration, resulting in high-performance characteristics with notable hole mobility and an impressive current ratio in transistor mode.
  • As a neuromorphic device, this technology mimics the vision of bees, effectively responding to blue-to-ultraviolet light, and achieving tasks like in-sensor denoising and image recognition in both static and dynamic environments.

Article Synopsis
  • Edentulism, a common oral health issue mainly affecting the elderly, is linked to various diseases, with its connection to physical activity still unclear.
  • An analysis using data from the CHARLS study with 6,480 participants showed that physically active individuals had a 24% lower risk of edentulism compared to those who were inactive, particularly at moderate activity levels of 1,800-3,000 MET-minutes/week.
  • The research concluded a U-shaped relationship between physical activity volume and edentulism, indicating both insufficient and excessive physical activity could lead to higher risks, with moderate levels offering the most protection.

Background: Current research has been inconclusive regarding whether hepatitis B infection is associated with an increased risk of periodontitis. This study aims to test the null hypothesis that no association exists between hepatitis B infection and an increased risk of periodontitis using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009-2014).

Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database (2009-2014) to assess the rate of the prevalence of periodontitis in patients with and without hepatitis B infection.

Purpose: To investigate the prognosis of advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (AOSCC) patients undergoing neck dissection with sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) preservation and resection.

Methods: From January 2013 to June 2017, a total of 235 AOSCC patients(stage Ⅲ and stage Ⅳ) who were diagnosed and underwent neck dissection at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, College and Hospital of Stomatology, Guangxi Medical University, were collected and followed-up. The differences in overall survival(OS), local recurrence-free survival (LRFS) and regional recurrence-free survival (RRFS) were compared between different surgical procedures.

Background: The American Heart Association has developed a novel cardiovascular health indicator called Life's Essential 8 (LE8). However, no one has reported using LE8 to assess periodontitis. This study aimed to investigate the association between LE8 and periodontitis in American adults.

Purpose: CD133cells were isolated and purified from primary oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC) to explore the effects of different culture conditions on the maintenance and biological characteristics of CD133 primary OSCC.

Methods: CCK-8 was used to detect the ability of proliferation and cisplatin resistance between CD133cell subsets. Transwell assay was used to compare the invasive ability of two cell subsets under the action of cisplatin.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib as second-line therapy in Chinese patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of Chinese patients with unresectable HCC who received second-line treatment of lenvatinib at three institutions from November 2018 to February 2022. Demographic and clinicopathologic characteristics, data on the treatment regimens were obtained from medical records.
