Excessive bleeding after dental procedures are one of the most frequent complications occurring in patients with hereditary bleeding disorders. In this retrospective study we collected data from 10 years of experience in the oral care of patients with congenital haemorrhagic disorders in three Italian Hemophilia Centers. Between 1993 and 2003, 247 patients with inherited bleeding disorders underwent 534 dental procedures including 133 periodontal treatments, 41 conservative dentistry procedures, 72 endodontic treatments and 288 oral surgery procedures. We recorded 10 bleeding complications (1.9%), most of which occurred in patients with severe/moderate haemophilia A undergoing multiple dental extractions. Thus, our protocol of management of patients with hereditary bleeding tendency undergoing oral treatment or surgery has been shown to be effective in preventing haemorrhagic complications.

Granulocyte and Monocyte Adsorption Therapy in Patients With Sepsis: A Feasibility Study.

Background: The pathogenesis of sepsis is thought to be linked to a dysregulated immune response, particularly that involving neutrophils. We have developed a granulocyte adsorption column as a "decoy organ," which relocates the massive inflammation in organs in the body to a blood purification column. This study was conducted to assess the safety and experimental effectiveness of granulocyte monocyte adsorption apheresis-direct hemoperfusion (G1-DHP) in the treatment of patients with sepsis, using a prospective, multicenter design.

Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is a lethal brain tumor characterized by the glioma stem cell (GSC) niche. The V-ATPase proton pump has been described as a crucial factor in sustaining GSC viability and tumorigenicity. Here we studied how patients-derived GSCs rely on V-ATPase activity to sustain mitochondrial bioenergetics and cell growth.

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Dokuz Eylül University, İzmir, Turkey.
Background: Children's oral health significantly impacts their overall well-being, daily activities, and social interactions. Dental treatments under general anesthesia are often required for extensive dental problems, special health care needs, or dental phobias, particularly in pediatric populations. The objective of this meta-analysis was to systematically review and synthesize existing research on how dental treatments under general anesthesia affect the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in children.

Introduction Supervised toothbrushing programmes (STPs) in nurseries and schools are effective at reducing inequalities in caries when targeted to areas of dental disease. Recent changes to government education and health policy have increased interest in STPs in England. This study aimed to establish the current level of provision of STPs in England, describe changes over time, understand associations with predictor variables, and summarise key barriers and facilitators to their implementation.
