AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between dental caries, restorations in proximal tooth surfaces, and the risk of alveolar bone loss.
- Higher alveolar bone loss was found in molars, particularly on the right side of patients, and was significantly greater in teeth with previous caries or restorations compared to untreated teeth.
- The results suggest that dental caries and restorative procedures can lead to specific periodontal bone loss in adults, highlighting the need for careful dental management.
Article Abstract
Unlabelled: Dental caries and restorations in proximal tooth surfaces often impinge upon the periodontal biological health.This study examines whether these factors may contribute to risk for alveolar bone loss.
Methods: Approximal tooth surfaces of 96 teeth in 40 patients were evaluated on panoramic radiographs for alveolar bone loss, restorations and caries.
Results: Higher values of alveolar bone loss were observed in molars and on the right side of patients. Where a caries/restorative event had occurred in the inter-proximal tooth surface bone loss at the corresponding teeth was approximately twice more than in the omologous non-treated tooth. Increased number of furcations was also observed in molars with caries/restorations.
Conclusions: Site-specific periodontal bone loss due to dental caries or restorative events occurs in adults.

Case: Thirty-five-year-old man presented with 14 cm segmental tibial defect after crush injury (Gustilo Anderson type-IIIA). Tetrafocal bone transport using Ilizarov frame was performed with 3 osteotomies. Two minor complications-skin invagination and failure at proximal docking site-were addressed.

Cardiovascular and cardiometabolic diseases are leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, driven in part by chronic inflammation. Emerging research suggests that the bone marrow microenvironment, or marrow niche, plays a critical role in both immune system regulation and disease progression. The bone marrow niche is essential for maintaining hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and orchestrating hematopoiesis.

The incidence of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is increasing annually, and timely diagnostic and treatments can substantially improve patient survival rates. AML typing traditionally relies on manual microscopy for classifying and counting myeloid cells, which is time-consuming, laborious, and subjective. Therefore, developing a reliable automated model for myeloid cell classification is imperative.

The objective of this study is to fabricate and develop hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) hydrogel (HG)-based composite bone cements with incorporation of hydroxyapatite (HA), beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), and with/without polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) for vertebroplasty. For animal study, twenty female Wister rats (250-300 g, 12 weeks of age) were divided into four groups including a two non-ovariectomy (NOVX) groups and two ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporosis groups. Two prepared biocomposites including HG/β-TCP/HA and HG/β-TCP/HA/PMMA were injected into the tibial defects of both OVX and NOVX rats for evaluating in vivo osteogenesis after 12 weeks.

Unlabelled: In very preterm-born infants, nutritional intake is important to reduce the risk of severe metabolic bone disease including the risk of a lower bone mineral density (BMD). The aim of this study was to evaluate bone mineral content (BMC) and BMD (measured as BMC per bone area (BA)) at six years of age in very preterm-born infants fed different diets post-discharge. Data on this topic so far is insufficient, and with this study we aim to supply more useful data.
