Dental Biomaterials Research Chair, King Saud University, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; Dept. of Oral Medicine and Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Levy Mwanawasa Medical University (LMMU), Lusaka, Zambia.
Background And Objectives: In spite of bone's healing capacity, critical-size bone defect regeneration and -implant osseointegration are challenging. Tissue engineering provides better outcomes, but requires expensive adjuncts like stem cells, growth factors and bone morphogenic proteins. Vitamin D (Vit.

Department of Pharmacology, Rungta College of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Research, Kohka-Kurud Road, Bhilai, Chhattisgarh 490024 India.
Purpose: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is linked with depression due to insulin resistance, oxidative stress and disruption of neurotrophic factors. We evaluated potential benefits of phloridzin in ameliorating depressive symptoms in T2D.
Methods: Adult male Swiss-albino mice (25-30 g) on high-fat-diet (HFD) for 2 weeks were administered with streptozotocin (STZ; 35 mg/kg, intraperitoneal) to induce T2D.
Access to oral health care services among adults with learning disabilities: a scoping review.

January 2017
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, College of Dentistry, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Background: The prevalence of oral diseases including dental caries and periodontal conditions is remarkably higher in people with disabilities. The provision of accessible oral health services for people with learning disabilities may be challenging.
Objectives: The objectives of the review were to identify barriers in accessing oral health care that persists within society, enabling or disabling people with learning disabilities.

Introduction: Autism is a neuro-developmental disorder which is manifested as impairment of social interaction, communication and a repetitive behaviour. Autism can obscure dental treatment for the affected patients; furthermore, children with autism commonly have destructive oral habits.
Aim: The aims of this study were to evaluate the Modified Gingival Index (MGI), Plaque Index (PI), salivary pH and buffering capacity of the saliva among autistic children compared to normal children in Riyadh City that may provide baseline data to enable comparison and future planning of dental services for autistic children.
Exploring the potential of laser capture microdissection technology in integrated oral biosciences.
Oral Dis
September 2017
Department of Oral Pathology, Manipal College of Dental Sciences, Manipal, Karnataka, India.
Article Synopsis
- Laser capture microdissection (LCM) is a sophisticated technique used to isolate specific cell populations for detailed genomic and proteomic study.
- Literature shows that LCM can effectively reveal the molecular mechanisms behind various oral health issues, such as tooth development, taste sensation, and cancers.
- This review focuses on LCM's potential as a valuable tool in oral sciences, emphasizing its role in creating genomic libraries and identifying new molecular markers.

Article Synopsis
- LDH is an enzyme present in various body tissues, with its concentration in saliva mainly derived from cells in the oral epithelium, indicating potential cellular damage and a link to oral lesions.
- In a study involving three groups—healthy individuals, patients with oral leukoplakia, and those with oral squamous cell carcinoma—LDH levels were measured to assess differences in enzyme concentration.
- Results showed that salivary LDH levels increased with the severity of oral lesions, indicating a correlation between higher LDH levels and more severe conditions such as OSCC.
