Article Synopsis
- Oral cancer (OC) is a major health concern worldwide, with current treatments like surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy often leading to severe side effects and risk of recurrence.
- Natural compounds from plants, such as quercetin and curcumin, are gaining traction for their potential to fight OC with less toxicity and effective targeting of cancer cell growth.
- Recent research highlights the importance of microRNAs (miRNAs) in OC, suggesting that using natural products to regulate these miRNAs could be a promising approach for improving treatment outcomes.
Article Synopsis
- * Researchers will conduct a systematic review, looking at randomized controlled trials for ADHD medications while assessing symptom severity and treatment tolerability.
- * The goal is to utilize a dose-response Bayesian model to determine optimal dosing strategies, enhancing clinical decision-making and potentially improving patient outcomes.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed how hydrothermal aging impacts the optical properties of two types of zirconia and lithium disilicate ceramics used in dental restorations.
- Thirty ceramic samples were tested from three different materials (ZirCAD prime, Katana UTML, and IPS e.max CAD), with color and microstructural analyses performed before and after aging.
- Results showed significant changes in color difference, translucency, and contrast ratio over time, with zirconia having the highest color difference, lithium disilicate showing the greatest translucency, and Katana UTML exhibiting the best contrast ratio after aging.
Aim: To identify serum- and salivary-derived inflammatory biomarkers of periodontitis progression and determine their response to non-surgical treatment.
Materials And Methods: Periodontally healthy (H; n = 113) and periodontitis patients (P; n = 302) were monitored bi-monthly for 1 year without therapy. Periodontitis patients were re-examined 6 months after non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT).
Background: Although aggregate data (AD) from randomised clinical trials (RCTs) are used in the majority of network meta-analyses (NMAs), other study designs (e.g., cohort studies and other non-randomised studies, NRS) can be informative about relative treatment effects.
