Background: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of scaling and root planing (SRP) on levels of plasma C-reactive protein (CRP).
Methods: A total of 30 patients with advanced periodontitis as determined by Clinical Periodontal Sum Score (CPSS) were recruited. Venous whole blood samples were drawn to obtain serum samples from all participants at baseline and 1 month after SRP (post-SRP). High-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) was measured by highly sensitive immunoturbidimetric assay. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for data analysis. Spearman rank correlation analysis was conducted to test the correlations between CPSS and hs-CRP at baseline and post-SRP.
Results: There was a statistically significant reduction in the post-SRP CPSS values from the baseline values (z = 4.783, p < 0.0001). Similarly, there was a statistically significant reduction in the post-SRP hs-CRP levels from the baseline levels (z = 4.782, p < 0.0001). Moreover, there was positive association between the baseline levels of CPSS and hs-CRP (ρ = 0.5703) and the post-SRP values of CPSS and hs-CRP (ρ = 0.7507).
Conclusion: The present study suggests that SRP can significantly reduce the levels of CRP.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD), the leading cause of death in the United States and globally, is a chronic inflammatory disease likely caused by an impaired ability to resolve inflammation. Pre-clinical studies have provided strong evidence of the activating role of specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs) derived from the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) and docosaheaxaenoic acid (DHA) on the resolution of inflammation. However, there is a dearth of information on the role of SPMs on inflammation in humans.

Background: Lipid species are emerging as biomarkers for cardiometabolic risk in both adults and children. The genetic regulation of lipid species and their impact on cardiometabolic risk during early life remain unexplored.
Methods: Using mass spectrometry-based lipidomics, we measured 227 plasma lipid species in 1149 children and adolescents (44.
Clinical and Radiologic Differences in Lung Involvement Between IgG4-Related Disease and Plasma Cell-Type Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman Disease.
Lung

Department of Radiology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Peking Union Medical College and Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, No.1 Shuaifuyuan, Dongcheng District, Beijing, 100730, China.
Purposes: Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) and plasma cell-type idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (PC-iMCD) have many overlapping features. Their differential diagnosis is challenging and crucial for clinical management due to their different prognoses and treatments. However, reports that compare these conditions are scarce, especially for patients with lung involvement.
