The oral cavity can be regarded as the mirror of systemic health, since many systemic diseases may have manifestations in the oral cavity, as in the case, among oral, potentially malignant disorders, of lupus erythematosus oral lichenoid lesions, and, vice-versa, oral diseases may affect systemic health, impairing patient's nutrition and wellbeing, reducing the quality of life and increasing stress and anxiety [...].

Cardiac amyloidosis represents a unique disease process characterized by amyloid fibril deposition within the myocardial extracellular space. Advances in multimodality cardiac imaging enable accurate diagnosis and facilitate prompt initiation of disease-modifying therapies. Furthermore, rapid advances in multimodality imaging have enriched understanding of the underlying pathogenesis, enhanced prognostication, and resulted in the development of imaging-based markers that reflect the amyloid burden, which is of increasing importance when assessing the response to treatment.

We aimed to characterise the medical and social complexities experienced by Inuit children and their families from Nunavut who were cared for at a general paediatrics clinic at an urban tertiary-level hospital located in Eastern Ontario. A retrospective chart review of this cohort was completed between 2016 and 2019. Two independent reviewers extracted data from charts.

Background: Exosomes are extracellular vesicles, composed of a phospholipid bilayer, that are primarily derived from stem cells. The contents of exosomes can be incorporated into the tissue in which they are introduced, which presents a unique therapeutic option.
Aims: Exosomes have been investigated as a treatment for a number of medical ailments, but the literature supporting these indications is inconclusive.

Background: Previous studies have shown that people with multiple sclerosis (MS) had frequent healthcare visits up to 10 years before being diagnosed but with no information from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the connection with the radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS).
Objective: To analyze healthcare use 3 years before the RIS diagnosis.
Methods: We examined healthcare usage before the first scan in RIS cases from 2010 to 2019.

Objective: Various demographic factors, including sex, socioeconomic status, and immigration status, have been linked to disparities in healthcare outcomes. Despite efforts by healthcare providers to address these inequities, interventions are not always effective. The present investigation provides empirical insights from Germany focusing on patients with systemic connective tissue disorders, highlighting the need for evaluated strategies to mitigate healthcare disparities.
