Bacterial cellulose (BC) has been used for various applications; however, studies investigating the immunohistochemical characteristics of the inflammatory and scarring component in BC implanted in the peritoneum in vivo have not yet been fully described. This study aimed to evaluate the systemic and organic safety of BC through oxidative stress, blood, and serum biochemical markers, as well as the late inflammatory response in rats, using histopathology and immunohistochemistry. Forty-three rats (26 males; 17 females) received BC in the peritoneal cavity (implanted group-IG), while twenty-seven rats (12 males; 15 females) served as the control (sham group-SG).

- The paper explores how psychological stress affects the outcomes of periodontal treatment, a growing area of interest in oral health research.
- It outlines a systematic review protocol that will analyze studies published from January 2000 to May 2024, following the PRISMA guidelines to ensure thoroughness in data collection and assessment.
- The findings aim to enhance understanding of stress's impact on treatment results, aiding both future research and practical clinical decision-making.
Resistance training (RT) with blood flow restriction (BFR) or high intensity (HI) are effective to increase muscle mass. To understand this effect, techniques known as "omics" are used to identify possible biomarkers. This study analyzed the salivary proteomic profile of healthy individuals trained before and after two RT protocols both designed with eight exercises for upper- and lower-limbs, one performed at low percentage of one-maximum repetition (%1RM) with BFR technique, and other at high %1RM (HI) without BRF technique.
