Objective: Aim: The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of occupational hygiene procedures for microbiological and cytological contents of periodontal pockets.
Patients And Methods: Material and Methods: Cytological and microbiological content of the periodontal pockets before treatment and after professional hygiene procedures including scaling with hand instruments and root cementum polishing have been investigated in patients with periodontitis.
Results: Results: According to obtained data it can be resumed that in periodontitis patients with the depth of pockets 3-5,5 mm before professional hygiene all the pockets contain great number of Cocci, Spirochetes, Candida Albicans, Flagellated rods and Protozoa species. It was proved by revealing of small amount of Polymorphonuclear leukocytes with active phagocytosis. After scaling and planing of the roots, a decrease in the number of Protozoa and Candida Albicans was observed in 97% and 72% of the investigated cells, respectively.
Conclusion: Conclusions: Cytological and microbiological content of periodontal pockets before treatment and after professional hygiene procedures including scaling and root planning testify to the level of local protective mechanisms, especially process of phagocytosis and virulence of microbial species in periodontal pockets.

Background: Reducing inequities in hypertension control among those affected in low- and middle-income countries requires person-centred health system responses based on a contextualised understanding of the choices and care pathways taken by those who rely on the services provided, particularly those from poor and marginalised communities. We examine patterns of care seeking and pathways followed by individuals with hypertension from low-income households in the Philippines and Malaysia. This study aims to fill a significant gap in the literature by analysing the stages at which individuals make decisions that may affect the successful control of their blood pressure.

Patients with genetic syndromes require special dental attention because they have symptoms that promote plaque accumulation, dental erosion, dental caries and gingival diseases. The aim of the study was to assess hygienic behaviors, use of dental care and frequency of professional preventive procedures among Polish children and adolescents with Prader-Willi, Down, Angelman, Silver-Russell and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndromes. Parents/legal guardians of children and adolescents with genetic syndromes were included.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines the presence of tigecycline resistant Enterobacterales (TRE) in the gut of healthy birds and in meat samples, revealing a significant prevalence in poultry.
- Out of 960 samples, 19.21% from chicken farms and 13.3% from turkey farms tested positive for TRE, with specific strains of E. coli identified carrying the tet(X4) gene, indicating multi-drug resistance.
- Findings suggest that food-producing animals could be a source of TRE for humans, highlighting the need for active surveillance to mitigate public health risks related to these resistant bacteria.
