Expert Review: Confronting Climate-Driven Heat Risks to Maternal and Fetal Health.

Importance: In the current era of climate change, extreme heat exposure poses escalating threats to maternal-fetal health. Despite the expansive scale of extreme heat exposure worldwide, dramatized by the record-breaking global ocean and atmospheric temperatures throughout 2023 and into 2024, the extent of the threat posed by heat is underestimated and underappreciated. Unlike the physical destruction wrought by climate-driven events like hurricanes and wildfires, heat exposure does not cause severe damage to the built environment.

Protective role of calcium-based agents in dental bleaching gels: insights from a systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical and laboratory evidence.

Objectives: This systematic review and meta-analysis (SRM) evaluated the effect of incorporating calcium-based bioactive agents in bleaching gels on dental structure preservation and whitening efficacy.

Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted across databases up to November 2024. Two independent reviewers screened and selected clinical trials and in vitro studies evaluating the effects of calcium-based bioactive agents in bleaching gels, following predefined PICO criteria.

Diet, fruit and vegetables and One Health: benefits for health, environment, society and the consumer-proceedings of the 9th edition of EGEA conference.

Purpose: To present the outcomes of the EGEA Conference on the state of knowledge regarding the contribution of diets rich in fruit and vegetables (FV) to human and planetary health, commonly included in the One Health concept.

Methods: The 9th edition of EGEA Conference (20-22 September 2023, Barcelona) provided a transversal and multidisciplinary perspective on the contribution of FV to One Health, in particular to the health of individuals, society and the planet. Nearly 150 international scientists and stakeholders discussed the current state of knowledge.

The integration of telehealth in antenatal anesthesia consults.

Purpose Of Review: Telehealth is a popular way for health care providers to connect with patients and is utilized by anesthesiologists across the world for preoperative evaluations. The purpose of this review is to outline the latest literature about telehealth use within obstetric anesthesia.

Recent Findings: Utilization of telehealth significantly increased during the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and has proven to be a useful and reliable way to conduct antenatal obstetric anesthesia consultations in high-risk patient groups.

Synthesis and application of calcium cyclotriphosphate in bleaching formulations: Effects on dental enamel properties.

Objectives: This study aimed to synthesize and evaluate the in vitro effects of varying concentrations (0.25%, 0.5%, and 1%) of calcium-substituted sodium trimetaphosphate (CaNaTMP) incorporated into 17.
