In 106 tonsillectomised children the following parameters were measured before and after operation: clinical parameters (length, weight, postoperative complications), haematological parameters (BSR, Hg, PCV, RBC, and WBC), and immunological parameters (IgG, IgA, IgM, and salivary IgA); in a number of children measurements were taken over a period of more than 3 years. Standard values of salivary IgA in relation to total salivary protein were determined in noninfected children of various age groups. Compared to the standard and initial values, we found some statistically significant changes in the serum immunoglobulin levels and in the salivary IgA, but no irreversible pathological decrease in the above-mentioned parameters.

Section of Oral Implantology, Department of Oral Rehabilitation, Fukuoka Dental College, 2-15-1 Tamura, Sawara-ku, Fukuoka 814-0193, Japan.
Objective: This study aimed to improve the health of peri-implant tissues through continuous intake of WB21 (LSWB21) tablets.
Methods: A double-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted with 23 maintenance patients who had generally healthy oral peri-implant tissues. Participants were divided into a test group ( = 12) receiving LSWB21 tablets and a control group ( = 11) receiving placebos.
Salivary Immunoglobulin a Alterations in Health and Disease: A Bibliometric Analysis of Diagnostic Trends from 2009 to 2024.
Antibodies (Basel)
November 2024
Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, 60-812 Poznan, Poland.
Background/objectives: Salivary immunoglobulin A (IgA) is a mediator of local immunity and host defence. Altered IgA levels may predispose to bacterial invasion of the mucosa in the gastrointestinal tract, including the oral cavity. Our study aimed to present the diagnostic trends related to salivary IgA in health and disease based on a bibliometric analysis of published papers between 2009 and 2024.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores how periodontal inflammation affects both salivary gland function and the oral microbiome, highlighting the significance of these factors in overall health.
- In an experimental model with mice, researchers noticed changes in immune cell activity in the salivary glands and alterations in the oral microbiome following induced periodontitis.
- The findings emphasize a strong connection between oral bacteria, immune responses in salivary glands, and how inflammation can disrupt oral health, providing insights into maintaining oral homeostasis.
Changes in salivary biomarkers of pain, anxiety, stress, and inflammation related to tooth movement during orthodontic treatment: a systematic review.
Dental Press J Orthod
December 2024
São Leopoldo Mandic School of Dentistry, Department of Molecular Biology (Campinas/SP, Brazil).
Objective: This systematic review aimed to analyze the literature on changes in endogenous salivary biomarkers of pain, anxiety, stress, and inflammation related to tooth movement during orthodontic treatment of children and adolescents.
Material And Methods: An electronic search was performed in nine databases to identify quasi-experimental studies, without restricting publication language and year. Two reviewers extracted the data and assessed the individual risk of bias using the JBI tools, and the certainty of evidence using the GRADE tool.
