Frequency and causes of infringement of salivation in people of young, average, elderly and senile age who addressed for rendering assistance in out-patient stomatologic treatment-and-prevention establishments in connection with infringement of function of salivary glands were studied. It is established that frequency of addresses in connection with violations of functions of salivary glands increases with age. The analysis of methods of diagnostics and treatment applied to normalization of function of salivary glands shows that they remain at rather low level.

Background: The long-term effect of adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) to restore radiation-induced salivary gland hypofunction in previous head and neck cancer patients have not been validated in larger settings.

Methods: The study was the 12-months follow-up of a randomised trial, including patients with hyposalivation. Patients were randomised to receive allogeneic ASCs or placebo in the submandibular glands.

Sjogren's syndrome is an autoimmune condition characterized by infiltration of exocrine glands but, in rare cases, can have extraglandular involvement with pleural effusion being an exceedingly rare form. Here we present a case of Sjogren's pleuritis resulting in pleural effusion, a rare initial presentation for Sjogren's syndrome. A woman in her 20s presented to the emergency department after a recent hospitalization for pneumonia, pleural effusion, and pulmonary embolism.

Functional characterization of novel compound heterozygous missense gene variants causing congenital dyshormonogenic hypothyroidism.

Introduction: The sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) mediates active iodide accumulation in the thyroid follicular cell. Biallelic loss-of-function variants in the NIS-coding gene cause congenital dyshormonogenic hypothyroidism due to a defect in the accumulation of iodide, which is required for thyroid hormonogenesis.

Objective: We aimed to identify, and if so to functionally characterize, novel pathogenic gene variants in a patient diagnosed with severe congenital dyshormonogenic hypothyroidism characterized by undetectable radioiodide accumulation in a eutopic thyroid gland, as well as in the salivary glands.

Background: Although the Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) has improved the diagnosis and management of salivary gland lesions, determining the risk of malignancy (ROM) for AUS and SUMP categories remains challenging. We investigated the role of interventional cytopathologists in refining the differential diagnosis of these categories.

Methods: We searched for salivary gland fine-needle aspirations (FNAs) performed at our Institution since the publication of the first edition of MSRSGC.
