Although there is level 1 evidence for the use of intravesical chemotherapy after the transurethral resection of bladder tumour, the decision to apply it needs to be individualised. "What benefit will the patient derive from it?"

Photodynamic Therapy Mediated by Curcumin and Blue Light for Recurrent Herpes Labialis: A Case Report.
Clin Case Rep
February 2025
Department of Oral Medicine, Faculty of Dentistry Damascus University Damascus Syria.
This study is the first to use photodynamic therapy (PDT) mediated by curcumin and blue light for the treatment of recurrent herpes labialis. According to our study, PDT effectively accelerated lesion healing and reduced its recurrence. PDT may represent a promising, safe, and cost-effective treatment option for this challenging disease.

A juxtapapillary retinal capillary hemangioma (JRCH) is a rare vascular hamartoma located on the optic nerve head or adjacent region. While often associated with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease, JRCHs can also occur as an isolated condition, presenting unique therapeutic challenges and risks of visual impairment. We report a case of a 50-year-old Malay gentleman with diabetes mellitus who presented with a non-progressive superior visual field defect in his left eye for three months.

Background: Basal cell nevus syndrome, also known as Gorlin or Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, is a hereditary condition caused by mutation in the PATCHED gene. The syndrome presents with a wide range of clinical manifestations, including basal cell carcinomas, jaw cysts, and skeletal anomalies. Diagnosis is based on specific criteria, and treatment typically includes surgical removal of basal cell carcinomas.

The escalating hazards posed by bacterial infections underscore the imperative for pioneering advancements in next-generation antibacterial modalities and treatments. Present therapeutic methodologies are frequently impeded by the constraints of insufficient biofilm infiltration and the absence of precision in pathogen-specific targeting. In this current study, we have used chlorin e6 (Ce6), zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), polydopamine (PDA), and UBI peptide to formulate an innovative nanosystem meticulously engineered to confront bacterial infections and effectually dismantle biofilm architectures through the concerted mechanism of photodynamic therapy (PDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT) therapies, including in-depth research, especially for oral bacteria and oral biofilm.

Introduction: Reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction Q7 (RT‒qPCR) is a commonly used tool for gene expression quantification. Because the qPCR method depends on several variables that can influence the analysis process, stably expressed genes should be selected for relative gene expression studies. To date, there is insufficient information on the selection of appropriate reference genes for antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (aPDI) and antimicrobial blue light (aBL) treatment.
