Article Synopsis
- The human mouth hosts over 600 bacterial species, yet the identification of a specific and not well-understood bacterium remains rare.
- Three patients who had undergone periodontal surgeries were found to have this bacterium associated with their intra-oral sutures.
- The study concludes that this is the first identification of this bacterium linked to sutures, raising concerns about potential surgical site infections and highlighting the need for further research.
Bone resorption following tooth loss is an obvious, continuous, and unpredictable process, which poses one of the greatest challenges in implant placement. The posterior regions of the jaws show more resorption compared to the anterior regions, with the mandible being affected more. Augmentation of the narrow alveolar ridge has been done using various techniques.

Materials And Methods: Fetal and total cfDNA yield and fetal fraction were calculated before and after storage of plasma for 0-6 years at -25°C.
Loss of motor function is a common deficit following stroke insult and often manifests as persistent upper extremity (UE) disability which can affect a survivor's ability to participate in activities of daily living. Recent research suggests the use of brain-computer interface (BCI) devices might improve UE function in stroke survivors at various times since stroke. This randomized crossover-controlled trial examines whether intervention with this BCI device design attenuates the effects of hemiparesis, encourages reorganization of motor related brain signals (EEG measured sensorimotor rhythm desynchronization), and improves movement, as measured by the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT).

Brain-computer interface (BCI) intervention has demonstrated potential as a motor rehabilitation strategy for stroke survivors. This sub-analysis of ongoing clinical trial (NCT02098265) examines rehabilitative efficacy of this BCI design and seeks to identify stroke participant characteristics associated with behavioral improvement.
