Salivary IgA versus HIV and Dental Caries.

Introduction: The inter-relationship of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection and dental caries as well as Salivary Immunoglobulin-A (S-IgA) level appear to remain under explored while a manual and electronic search of the literature was made. Hence, the present study was undertaken to assess the relationship of S-IgA and dental caries status in HIV positive children.

Aim: The aim of this study was to find out the relationship of S-IgA antibody with dental caries by measuring the concentration of IgA in saliva of HIV positive and negative children and determine the dental caries status in HIV positive and HIV negative children, which may help in treatment planning and prevention of the same.

Salivary IgA and dental caries in HIV patients: A pilot study.

Introduction: The interrelationship of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and dental caries, as well as Salivary IgA (S-IgA) level, appear to remain underexplored while a manual and electronic search of the literature was made. Hence, this study was undertaken to assess the relationship of S-IgA and dental caries status in HIV +ve children.

Aim: The aim of this study was to find out the relationship of S-IgA antibody with dental caries by measuring the concentration of IgA in saliva of HIV +ve and HIV -ve children and to determine the dental caries status in HIV +ve and HIV -ve children, which may help in treatment planning and prevention of the same.

Bilateral molariform mandibular second premolars.

Macrodontia is a rare dental anomaly that refers to teeth that appear larger than normal. Generalised macrodontia can be associated with certain medical conditions and syndromes. This case report presents clinical and radiographic findings of isolated bilateral macrodontia in a 14-year-old child.

1-Phenyl-3-{4-[4-(4-undecyl-oxybenzoyl-oxy)phenyl-oxycarbon-yl]phen-yl}triazene 1-oxide.

The X-ray crystallographic study of the title compound, C(37)H(41)N(3)O(6), at 150 K establishes the N-oxide form of the triazene 1-oxide unit. There is one intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-action and the crystal packing is stabilized by one N-H⋯O, three C-H⋯O and three C-H⋯π inter-molecular inter-actions. The dihedral angles between pairs of adjacent benzene rings are 14.
