Porphyrin's excellent biocompatibility and modifiability make it a widely studied photoactive material. However, its large π-bond conjugated structure leads to aggregation and precipitation in physiological solutions, limiting the biomedical applications of porphyrin-based photoactive materials. It has been demonstrated through research that fabricating porphyrin molecules into nanoscale covalent organic frameworks (COFs) structures can circumvent issues such as poor dispersibility resulting from hydrophobicity, thereby significantly augmenting the photoactivity of porphyrin materials.

This review addresses the effects of various decontamination methods on the wettability of titanium and zirconia dental implants. Despite extensive research on surface wettability, there is still a significant gap in understanding how different decontamination techniques impact the inherent wettability of these surfaces. Although the literature presents inconsistent findings on the efficacy of decontamination methods such as lasers, air-polishing, UV light, and chemical treatments, the reviewed studies suggest that decontamination alters in vitro hydrophilicity.

The association between psoriasis and increased cancer risk is gaining recognition as studies reveal shared inflammatory and immune pathways. This review examines the relationship between psoriasis and neoplasia, focusing on cancer risk factors in psoriasis patients, the biological pathways underlying this connection, and the impact of various psoriasis treatments on cancer development. Psoriasis patients have a heightened incidence of certain cancers, such as lymphomas, skin cancers, and urological malignancies, potentially linked to immune dysregulation and chronic inflammation.
