Sleep bruxism, awake bruxism and headache in children and adolescents: a scoping review.

A scoping review was carried out with the aim of mapping the existing literature on the association between sleep/awake bruxism and primary headache (migraine and tension headache) in children and adolescents. This scoping review followed the method proposed by Arksey & O'Malley and the Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Evidence Synthesis and was reported following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The methods were registered in the Open Science Framework ( View Article and Find Full Text PDF

Development and characterization of pectin films containing nanoemulsions of the essential oil from Thymus vulgaris for preserving salami.

Emulsions were prepared from T. vulgaris essential oil using the surfactants Pluronic F127 and Tween 80 by mechanical agitation (Emulsion_Tw and Emulsion_Pl) and sonication using an ultrasonic tip (Sonicated_emulsion_Tw and Sonicated_emulsion_Pl). These emulsions were incorporated into pectin films.

Phytase Improves Zinc Utilization by Broiler Chickens.

The study aimed to evaluate phytase effects on the availability of zinc (Zn) from corn and soybean meal feeds for broiler chickens, whereas, in parallel, Zn requirements were investigated. A total of 640 Cobb × Cobb 500 male chicks were fed a Zn-deficient diet (18.87 ± 0.

Complete genome sequence of strain AEG42_29 (DSM 112329), a member of the genus isolated from soil.

We report the complete genome sequence of strain AEG42_29, a representative of the genus isolated from a temperate grassland soil. Its genome codes for several genes involved in stress response, defense, and virulence, which may help this bacterium cope with fluctuating conditions in the soil environment.

Injury-induced KIF4A neural expression and its role in Schwann cell proliferation suggest a dual function for this kinesin in neural regeneration.

Contrary to the adult central nervous system, the peripheral nervous system has an intrinsic ability to regenerate that relies on the expression of regeneration-associated genes, such as some kinesin family members. Kinesins contribute to nerve regeneration through the transport of specific cargo, such as proteins and membrane components, from the cell body towards the axon periphery. We show here that KIF4A, associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and previously believed to be only expressed during development, is also expressed in the adult vertebrate nervous system and up-regulated in injured peripheral nervous system cells.
