AI Article Synopsis

  • Surgical procedures in the oral cavity can be performed by various dental specialists, leading to potential confusion for general dentists regarding patient referrals.
  • This article focuses on the two main surgical specialties in dentistry: periodontology and oral and maxillofacial surgery.
  • It also provides clinical examples to demonstrate the collaborative relationship between these specialties.

Article Abstract

Surgical procedures of the oral cavity can be performed by a number of dental specialists and clinicians. Because of the limited number of surgical procedures that can be performed inside the oral cavity, the boundaries between specialties may become indistinct and lead to confusion for general dentists in terms of patient referrals. In this article, what the two surgical specialties of dentistry (i.e. periodontology and oral and maxillofacial surgery) have to offer is highlighted, together with clinical examples to illustrate the interdisciplinary relationship between them.

Article Synopsis
  • COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2, poses serious global health risks, including the potential for secondary liver injury related to metabolic enzyme changes.
  • This study explores how prior infection with SARS-CoV-2 affects alcohol-induced liver damage, using transgenic mice that express human ACE2.
  • Results showed that infected mice experienced worsened liver injury after alcohol consumption, with alterations in metabolic enzymes and increased levels of a toxic alcohol byproduct, indicating a complex interaction between COVID-19 and alcohol effects on the liver.

Objectives: To assess the association of early and late postpartum maternal mental health with infants' health related quality of life (HRQoL).

Methods: The study was embedded within the POST-UP trial (n = 1843). Infants' HRQoL was assessed with the Infant and Toddler Quality of Life Questionnaire Short Form-47 at ages 1 month (1 m), and 12 m.

Background: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) may impact ovarian folliculogenesis and steroidogenesis, but whether prenatal exposure may impact offspring reproductive health is unknown. This study examines the extent to which maternal PFAS plasma concentrations during pregnancy are associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and related characteristics in female offspring.

Methods: We studied 322 mother-daughter pairs in Project Viva, a Boston-area longitudinal pre-birth cohort enrolled 1999-2002.

Electronic address:

Tumor hypoxia is one of key challenges in deep tumor photodynamic therapy (PDT), and how to fix this issue is attracting ongoing concerns worldwide. This work demonstrates dually fluorinated unimolecular micelles with desirable and stable oxygen-carrying capacity, high cellular penetration, and integrative type I & II PDT for deep hypoxic tumors. Dually fluorinated star copolymers with fluorinated phthalocyanines as the core are prepared through photoinitiated electron/energy transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization under irradiation with NIR LED light at room temperature, followed by assembly into unimolecular micelles.

Hepatic metabolism is an important process for evaluate the potential activity and toxicity of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) metabolites. Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has advocated the development of in vitro assays that mimic in vivo hepatic metabolism to eventually replace classical animal tests. In response to this need, we established a 3D mouse liver organoid (mLO) platform that mimics the animal model and is distinct from existing models.
