Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the incomplete knowledge of peroxisomal proteins, known as the peroxi-ome, which is essential for grasping their role in cellular metabolism.
- By utilizing high-content microscopy on Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the researchers expanded the known peroxi-ome by about 40% and identified new protein targeting processes within peroxisomes.
- The findings highlight the importance of peroxisomes in gluconeogenesis and their broader implications for organismal health and disease understanding.
Objective: To determine whether there is an association between fasting plasma glucose level and periodontal condition in a non-diabetic male population.
Methods: Data of periodic medical examinations of 815 non-diabetic male adults (mean age 38.1 + or - 7.
Objective: The goal of the study was to analyze dental attendance and self-assessment of dental status among Israeli military personnel, according to gender, education, and smoking status.
Methods: Data were analyzed from a computerized questionnaire on dental attendance and dental status, completed by military personnel who attended one medical clinic for the required periodic medical examination between 1998 and 2006.
Results: For 60% of the respondents, the last dental visit was within the previous 12 months.
Introduction: Both chronic periodontal disease (CPD) and erectile dysfunction (ED) are associated with cardiovascular disease and its risk factors, including smoking and diabetes mellitus. However, the association between ED and CPD has never been studied.
Aim: To study the association between ED and CPD.
Objective: To evaluate the self-care level of dental and healthcare providers regarding prevention of oral diseases
Methods: Healthcare providers (dental assistants and surgeons, laboratory personnel, biologists, medics, paramedics, corpsmen, nurses, pharmacists, physicians, physiotherapists, psychologists, social workers, speech therapists, X-ray technicians) and non-health care providing adults (the general population) were asked to respond to a questionnaire regarding their routine measures for maintaining oral health.
Results: Three hundred and twenty-six healthcare providers and 95 non-healthcare providers participated in the study. Regarding toothbrushing, flossing, undergoing periodic dental examinations and professional scaling/polishing, dental practitioners have better, but not perfect, maintenance habits than other healthcare providers.
