Agaricus blazei Murrill (ABM) popularly known as 'Cogumelo do Sol' in Brazil, or 'Himematsutake' Japan, is a mushroom native to and widely cultivated Japan for its medicinal uses, so it now considered one of the most important edible culinary-medicinal biotechnological species. It was traditionally used treat many common diseases like atherosclerosis, hepatitis, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, dermatitis cancer. In vitro vivo ABM has shown immunomodulatory antimutagenic properties, although...
The aim of this study was to verify whether socioeconomic determinants, such as parents' educational level, family income and dental service attendance by children, are associated with the presence caries among an Italian population children.An observational retrospective carried out in a children aged 4-14 years who visited Paediatric Dentistry Department University Perugia, Italy. Children were stratified according familial level (father's mother's income) children. Age- sex- adjusted odds...
Background Administrative healthcare databases are useful and inexpensive tools that can provide a comprehensive assessment of the burden diseases in terms major outcomes, such as mortality, hospital readmissions, use resources. However, crucial issue is reliability information gathered. The aim this study was to validate ICD-9 codes for several cardiovascular conditions, i.e., acute myocardial infarction (AMI), atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF), heart failure (HF), order them...
Pending the availability of vaccines to contain SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, current solution is "social distancing" with a reduction dental treatments those assessed as urgent and emergency cases. These also involve Early Childhood Caries (ECC) due fact that this disease affects preschool children (a vulnerable population) and, in addition, shows propensity evolve into more serious complications (dental pain, infections). A narrative review was carried out support protocol for treating ECC...
Abstract To analyze the effects of four universal adhesives (Optibond Solo Plus—OB, Universal Bond—UB, Prime&Bond Active—PBA, FuturaBond M + —FB) on human gingival fibroblasts in terms cytotoxicity, morphology and function. After vitro exposure for up to 48 h, fibroblast viability was determined by MTT assay determined, phase-contrast microscopy migration scratch wound assay. Expression levels IL1β, IL6, IL8, IL10, TNFα VEGF genes were assessed RT-PCR their protein production Western...
When treating patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) the doctor-patient relationship can be very challenging. The dentist is often forced to work under general anaesthesia or conscious sedation. Children ASD are an increased risk of caries due poor oral hygiene, a cariogenic diet and use xerostomal drugs. In this therapeutic strategies used treat kind evaluated new method children presented in order increase awareness about condition dental field.The Atlas Center (a non-profit...
Recently, the application of restorative materials containing metacrilate monomers in conservative and paediatric dentistry has focused on possible negative effects due to use these composites. In particular release from reconstructions as a result an insufficient polymerisation, can spread along mucosal dental tissues with potential immunological ed cytotoxic effects. Regarding importance this issue, aim study is provide descriptive review literature local systemic interactions metacrylic...
