Home-use agents in the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity: clinical effectiveness evaluation with different measurement methods.
Clin Oral Investig

Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Restorative Dentistry, Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University, Çanakkale, 17100, Turkey.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of home-use desensitizing agents over an 8-week period by comparing them using different measurement methods.
Methods: A randomized, controlled clinical trial was conducted with 180 individuals aged between 18 and 70 who clinically diagnosed dentin hypersensitivity (DH) in two or more non-adjacent teeth. Subjects who met the inclusion criteria (n = 164) were randomly allocated into five test groups-using Casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP), Arginine, Novamin, Propolis, and Potassium nitrate-and a control group using standard fluoride toothpaste.
Impact of air pollution on the progress-free survival of non-small cell lung cancer patients with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy: a cohort study.

Air pollution is a well-established risk factor for lung cancer, but limited evidence exists on its impact on the treatment of lung cancer. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of key pollutants on the efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor immunotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, thereby providing clinicians with evidence to potentially enhance the efficacy of PD-1 therapy and inform policy decisions for cancer care. To this end, we conducted a study involving 361 NSCLC patients who received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor immunotherapy, examining the correlation between air pollution exposure and progression-free survival (PFS) following immunotherapy treatment.

We have previously demonstrated that subgingival levels of nitrate-reducing bacteria, as well as the in vitro salivary nitrate reduction capacity (NRC), were diminished in periodontitis patients, increasing after periodontal treatment. However, it remains unclear if an impaired NRC in periodontitis can affect systemic health. To determine this, the effect of nitrate-rich beetroot juice (BRJ) on blood pressure was determined in 15 periodontitis patients before and 70 days after periodontal treatment (i.

Silver nitroprusside complex nanoparticles (AgN NPs) have garnered significant attention for their antimicrobial properties. However, challenges such as toxicity and limited biocompatibility often hinder their practical applications. Therefore, this study introduces a combined approach to fabricating AgN NPs with chitosan (CS), resulting in CS-AgN nanocomposites (CS-AgN NCs) with cytocompatibility.

Universidade Federal da Paraíba - UFPB, Health Science Center Department of Clinical and Community Dentistry, João Pessoa, PB, Brazil.
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of bioactive toothpastes in remineralizing eroded enamel surfaces in vitro. Bovine enamel blocks (n = 48) were obtained and classified into untreated, demineralized, and treated areas. Specimens were randomly classified into six groups (n = 8 each): fluoride-free toothpaste (NCT), Colgate Total 12 (PCT), Sensodyne Repair and Protect (SRP), Sensodyne Pronamel (SPE), Regenerador + Sensitive (RGS), and RGS/calcium booster (RCB).
