Long-term Implant Maintenance: A Systematic Review of Home and Professional Care Strategies in Supportive Implant Therapy.

Unlabelled: The aim of this study is review the efficacy of different techniques of home care and professional care for long-term implant maintenance, when compared with their respective standard procedures (regular brushing or mechanical debridement with curette), in changing clinical parameters, such as bleeding on probing, probing depth, plaque score and gingival index, as reported in randomized clinical trials.

Materials And Methods: A systematic literature search of randomized clinical trials was performed using the PubMed (MEDLINE), EMBASE and Cochrane library databases. A qualitative review was conducted to compare all the different techniques of home care and professional care for long-term implant maintenance.

SDRAP for annotating scrambled or rearranged genomes.

Genomes sometimes undergo large-scale rearrangements. Programmed genome rearrangements in ciliates offer an extreme example, making them a compelling model system to study DNA rearrangements. Currently, available methods for genome annotation are not adequate for highly scrambled genomes.

Comparative genomics reveals insight into the evolutionary origin of massively scrambled genomes.

Ciliates are microbial eukaryotes that undergo extensive programmed genome rearrangement, a natural genome editing process that converts long germline chromosomes into smaller gene-rich somatic chromosomes. Three well-studied ciliates include , and , but only the lineage has a massively scrambled genome, whose assembly during development requires hundreds of thousands of precisely programmed DNA joining events, representing the most complex genome dynamics of any known organism. Here we study the emergence of such complex genomes by examining the origin and evolution of discontinuous and scrambled genes in the lineage.

Site-Specific Regulation of Sulfatase and Aromatase Pathways for Estrogen Production in Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a highly prevalent gynecological disease characterized by lesions in different sites. Regulation of specific estrogen pathways may favor the formation of distinct microenvironments and the progression of endometriosis. However, no study has simultaneously evaluated the gene and protein regulation of the main estrogen-synthesizing enzymes in endometriosis.

SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence in the city of Puerto Madryn: Underdiagnosis and relevance of children in the pandemic.

Background: Reported cases of COVID-19 may be underestimated due to mild or asymptomatic cases and a low testing rate in the general population.

Research Question: What is the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the general population and how it compares with the data on SARS-CoV-2 cases reported by a national health surveillance system (SNVS 2.0).
