Interaction between apical periodontitis and systemic disease (Review)
Int J Mol Med.2023 Jul;52(1):60.
doi: 10.3892/ijmm.2023.5263.
Epub 2023 Jun 2.
Abstract
Apical periodontitis is an oral common inflammatory disease
initiated by infection of pulp chamber and is characterized by
destruction and resorption of the periapical bone. As a local infection,
pathogens and their products in periapical tissues, as well as
inflammatory cytokines produced in periapical lesions, enter the blood
circulation, triggering systemic immune responses and leading to the
pathogenesis of various types of systemic disease. Therefore, apical
periodontitis might be associated with systemic disease ...

Amino acid in energy drinks makes mice live longer and healthier
Researchers first sifted the amino acid taurine from a sample of ox bile in 1827. Today, it’s better known as one of the main ingredients in many energy drinks. But it may do more than drive sales of these beverages. A study published today in
Science
suggests
boosting taurine levels increases life span in mice and improves the physical condition of middle-aged monkeys
, hinting it could do the same for people.
“This might be something that could be used to fight aging-related diseases or increase life span in humans,” says molecular physiologist Dudley Lamming of the University of Wisconsin School o...

Can ‘toxic’ bilirubin treat a variety of illnesses?
Generations of medical and biology students have been instilled with a dim view of bilirubin. Spawned when the body trashes old red blood cells, the molecule is harmful refuse and a sign of illness. High blood levels cause jaundice, which turns the eyes and skin yellow and can signal liver trouble. Newborns can’t process the compound, and although high levels normally subside, a persistent surplus can cause brain damage.
Yet later this year up to 40 healthy Australian volunteers may begin receiving infusions of the supposedly good-for-nothing molecule. They will be participating in a phase 1 safety trial, sponsored ...

Determining primary stability for adhesively stabilized dental implants
ConclusionThe
adhesive cement show potential for offering primary implant stability
for different dental implant designs. In this study, the primary
parameters influencing the measured removal torque values were the
implant surface area and diameter. As the liquid cement prevents the use
of insertion torque, considering the relationship between insertion and
removal torque, removal torque can be considered a reliable surrogate
for primary implant stability for bench and pre-clinical settings.Clinical relevanceAt
present, the primary stability of dental implants is linked to the
quality of the host bone, the drill ...

Was a small-brained human relative the world ’s first gravedigger—and artist?
A trio of papers posted online and presented at a meeting today lays out an astonishing scenario. Roughly 240,000 years ago, they suggest, small-brained human relatives carried their dead through a labyrinth of tight passageways into the dark depths of a vast limestone cave system in South Africa. Working by firelight, these diminutive cave explorers dug shallow graves, sometimes arranging bodies in fetal positions and placing a stone tool near a child’s hand. Some etched cave walls with crosshatches and others cooked small animals in what amounted to a subterranean funeral, more than 100,000 years before such behaviors ...
