Department of Pharmaceutics, Faculty of Pharmacy, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.
Background: Peri-implant diseases, such as peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis, are inflammatory conditions caused by biofilms that can lead to the loss of surrounding soft tissues and bone. The most effective treatment involves non-surgical mechanical debridement to remove plaque, but other treatment modalities have shown limited success. This study investigated the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects of atorvastatin (ATV) gel as an additional treatment for peri-implant mucositis.

Stubborn biofilm infections pose serious threats to public health. Clinical practices highly rely on mechanical debridement and antibiotics, which often fail and lead to persistent and recurrent infections. The main culprits are 1) persistent bacteria reviving, colonizing, and rejuvenating biofilms, and 2) secondary pathogen exposure, particularly in individuals with chronic diseases.

Article Synopsis
- - Periodontitis is a chronic disease caused by dental plaque that can lead to tooth loss, and existing treatments often fail to effectively eliminate harmful biofilms and excessive inflammation.
- - Researchers have developed an injectable nanoenzyme hydrogel called GDY-Fe@HA-DA, which has strong tissue adhesion and antibacterial properties, and works even better when exposed to near-infrared laser light.
- - This new hydrogel has shown promising results in treating bacterial infections and promoting healing in both skin wounds and rat models of periodontitis, indicating its potential as a therapeutic option for oral health and tissue injuries.

Spinal implant infections are a serious complications of instrumented spinal fusion surgeries, carrying high morbidity and complex management challenges. Early postoperative infections may manifest with wound-healing issues, back pain, and fevers. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the preferred imaging modality, but can be limited by metal artifacts.

Introduction: Acute fracture-related infections are challenging problems, affecting up to 20% of orthopaedic trauma patients. High recurrence rates, secondary surgeries, and rehospitalizations lead to increased healthcare costs and are major burdens to patients. Bacteriophage therapy offers a potential alternative treatment option to address these challenges.
