Concentrated growth factor (CGF), a new generation of platelet concentrate product, appears to have more abundant factors because its special centrifugation process. However, there are few studies supporting this. This study was designed evaluate the contents major in CGF and compare them with those found PRP (platelet-rich plasma) PRF fibrin). PRP, PRF, were obtained from same samples peripheral blood. Concentrations five representative platelets measured enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay...

This epidemiological study leverages data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database spanning 1990 to 2021 analyze global burden oral cancer. The research aims provide a comprehensive assessment age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), mortality (ASDR), and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for cancer, examining trends over three decades. used age standardized (ASRs) as an indicator cancer data. Trend analysis uses estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) track changes in...

Dental healthcare workers (DHCWs) are at high risk of occupational exposure to droplets and aerosol particles emitted from patients' mouths during treatment. We evaluated the effectiveness an air cleaner in reducing droplet contamination by positioning device four different locations actual dental clinic. applied computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods solve governing equations airflow, energy dispersion different-sized airborne droplets/aerosol particles. In a clinic, we measured supply...

Hydroxymethanesulfonate (HMS), the product of HSO3– and SO32– reacting with dissolved formaldehyde in fog, cloud, aerosol liquid water, has been suggested to be an important source particulate sulfur during haze events. However, there have limited studies high concentrations HMS atmospheric aerosol. We report here two feasible analytical methods for identification using ion chromatography UHPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap mass spectrometry. The fine particles wintertime Beijing ranged from below detection...

ABSTRACT Purpose/Objectives The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects digital–conventional integrated teaching method on prosthetics preclinically in full crown preparation courses. Methods Fifty‐eight undergraduate dental students were randomly divided into a conventional group (CG) and (DG). preclinical course composed two phases. In first phase, from both groups trained with method. second CG still method, whereas DG practiced digital real‐time training evaluation system. test...

Factors associated with outcomes of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy in patients relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) have not been fully elucidated. We explored the impact prelymphodepletion (pre-LD) lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) and its lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (LMR/LDH) on efficacy prognosis 60 R/R DLBCL undergoing CAR-T therapy. The optimal cutoff values for pre-LD LMR LMR/LDH were 3.583 0.0103, respectively. overall response rate...

In-source fragmentation-based high-resolution mass spectrometry (ISF-HRMS) is a potential analytical technique, which usually used to profile some specific compounds that can generate diagnostic neutral loss (NL) or fragment ion (FI) in source inherently. However, the ISF-HRMS method does not work for those cannot inherently produce NL FI source. In this study, derivatization-based in-source fragmentation-information-dependent acquisition (DISF-IDA) strategy was proposed profiling...

Smoking is considered a significant risk factor for both periodontal disease and cardiovascular (CVD). Endothelial cells play an important role in the progression of diseases. In present study, we investigated vitro impact nicotine on functional properties human umbilical vein endothelial (HUVECs) stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis. HUVECs were different concentrations (10 µM-10 mM) and/or P. gingivalis LPS. Expression levels intercellular adhesion...

Peak alignment is a crucial step in liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based large-scale untargeted metabolomics workflows, as it enables the integration of metabolite peaks across multiple samples, which essential for accurate data interpretation. Slight differences or fluctuations chromatographic separation conditions, however, can cause retention time (RT) shift between consecutive analyses, ultimately affecting accuracy peak samples. Here, we introduce novel RT correction...

Abstract Many traditional Chinese medicines have been used as immunomodulators that act either immunosuppressants or immunostimulators. Recently, our lab successfully isolated a monomer telocinobufagin (TCB) from the chloroform extract of Chan Su ( Venenum Bufonis ). In present paper, we evaluated immunomodulatory effects this compound in vitro. We found TCB significantly stimulates splenocyte proliferation when administered alone combination with polyclonal T‐cell mitogens concanavalin A...
