Article Synopsis
- * The implementation of FENSA has faced challenges in academic environments, where universities depend on diverse funding sources that might not align well with FENSA's guidelines.
- * The creation of the WHO Foundation in 2020 allows for indirect engagement with previously restricted firms, raising concerns about conflicts while prompting calls for a reassessment of FENSA to better accommodate academic collaboration without compromising ethical standards.
Background: Dental caries is the world's most prevalent noncommunicable disease, disproportionately affecting children from low-income families and rural geographic areas.
Methods: The CariedAway 3.0 study was a cluster-randomized pragmatic non-inferiority trial comparing silver diamine fluoride (SDF) to sealants and atraumatic restorations (ART) for the prevention and control of dental caries.
A Type I reaction center (RC) (Fe-S type, ferredoxin reducing) is found in several phyla containing anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria. These include the heliobacteria (HB), the green sulfur bacteria (GSB), and the chloracidobacteria (CB), for which high-resolution homodimeric RC-photosystem (PS) structures have recently appeared.

- Dental caries is a widespread issue impacting children's health, particularly in low-income minority populations, prompting the need for effective preventive measures like dental sealants and silver diamine fluoride (SDF).
- The CariedAway study investigated whether the application of SDF in schools was as effective as traditional dental sealants and atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) in preventing dental caries among children aged 5 to 13 in New York.
- The study randomized nearly 7,500 eligible students into two treatment groups (SDF or sealants/ART) and tracked their dental health, finding insights that could reinforce preventive dental care strategies for at-risk communities.
