Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, Volume 8, Issue , January-December 2020. Aortic aneurysms in children are rare and when present are usually caused by a connective tissue disorder. In this article, we present a case of multiple aortic aneurysms in an adolescent with a novel finding of a gene variation that is associated with aortic disease.

Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to determine how the removal of nonimpacted third molars (N‐M3s) affects the periodontal status of neighboring second molars (M2s). Subjects and Methods The periodontal condition of M2s for which the neighboring N‐M3s were removed (more than 6 months previously) and those with intact N‐M3s was analyzed in a cross‐sectional observation study. In an additional case series, periodontal changes in M2s in response to adjacent N‐M3 removal were observed...
Abstract Objectives 1) To compare levels of pro‐ and anti‐inflammatory mediators in saliva and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in children with and without congenital heart defects (CHD), and to test if a systemic component exists in CHD children by controlling for gingivitis and plaque scores. 2) To correlate the levels of pro‐ and anti‐inflammatory mediators in GCF and saliva with plaque bacterial composition among CHD cases and controls. Materials and Methods Whole un‐stimulated saliva...
Abstract Background Oral cancer patients can benefit from dental implant placement. Traditionally implants are placed after completing oncologic treatment (secondary implant placement). Implant placement during ablative surgery (primary placement) in oral cancer patients seems beneficial in terms of early start of oral rehabilitation and limiting additional surgical interventions. Guidelines on the ideal timing of implant placement in oral cancer patients are missing. Objective To perform...
Abstract Background The establishment of adaptive immune responses to neoplasms involves not only the tumour tissue but also the peripheral blood. We aimed to conduct a preliminary exploration to understand the immune response of T lymphocytes of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC‐Ts) in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods A total of 103 blood samples from OSCC patients and 18 blood samples from healthy donors were analysed by flow cytometry. Results Compared to those...
Abstract Local anaesthetics (LA) are commonly used into daily clinical practice for many operational procedures (in both primary care and dentistry and across all hospital specializations). The literature reports few and controversial data on the prevalence of IgE‐mediated allergic reactions to LA, as adverse reactions are common and may simulate a hypersensitivity reaction. The real incidence of allergic reactions to LAs is reported to be < 1% (Berkun et al., 2003, Gall et al., 1996, Giovannitti...

Abstract Anti‐tumour necrosis factor (TNF) drugs are often prescribed for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases. While this treatment has been shown to be effective in many patients, up to 40% of patients do not achieve disease control. Drug concentration in plasma may be a factor affecting the observed variability in therapeutic response. This study aimed to identify the plasma concentrations of the anti‐TNF certolizumab pegol (CZP) associated...
Abstract Asians as a group comprise of over 60% the world’s population. There is an incredible amount of diversity in Asian and admixed populations that has not been studied in a pharmacogenetic context. The known pharmacogenetic differences in Asians subgroups generally represent previously known variants that are present at much lower or higher frequencies in Asians compared to other populations. This review aims to summarize the main drugs and known genes that appear to have differences in their...
Abstract Hydrazinocurcumin (HZC), a synthetic derivative of curcumin (CUR), has been documented to show anti‐cancer potential in impeding tumor growth in several cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be unclear. This study aimed to explore the function and underlying mechanisms of HZC on HCC cells, which may involve the p38 MAPK pathway. HZC was first purified and identified. HepG2 cells were then subjected to treatment with HZC...
Abstract Polymorphisms in drug transporters, like the ATP‐binding cassette (ABC) and solute carrier (SLC) superfamilies, may contribute to the observed diversity in drug response in African patients. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary and analysis of the frequencies and distributions in African populations of ABC and SLC variants that affect drug pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). Of polymorphisms evaluated in African populations, SLCO1B1 rs4149056 and SLC22A6 rs1158626...

The lymphovenous valve of the thoracic duct (TD), seen from the venous side, and using microcomputed tomography. Our study demonstrated the morphology of this valve in humans, which historically has received little attention. Interest in the TD and the lymphovenous junction (LVJ) is growing as the lymphatic system is understood to play a key role in the promotion of systemic inflammation and organ dysfunction during acute and critical illness. This has implicated the terminal TD and LVJ as locations...
The plantar aponeurosis is commonly assumed to be an adaptation to bipedal walking in humans that evolved in concert with the longitudinal arch. However, there is still considerable uncertainty about the comparative anatomy of plantar aponeurosis in non‐human primates, which has undermined attempts to test adaptive hypotheses about this structure. In this study, we review and score descriptions of plantar aponeurosis anatomy in 40 primate species and apply new comparative phylogenetic methods to...

Abstract There have been several studies on the role of the monocyte chemotactic protein‐1 / C‐C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2) signaling pathway in fibrotic diseases, which identified the blockade of this pathway as a potential therapeutic target for treating fibrosis. We examined the efficacy of CCR2 antagonist (RS‐504393) in a mouse model of scleroderma induced by bleomycin. RS‐504393 was administered via intradermal injection 6 hours prior to bleomycin injection, in the same sites. Histopathological...

Epidemiological studies on magnesium intake and primary liver cancer (PLC) are scarce, and no prospective studies have examined the associations of magnesium intake with PLC incidence and mortality. We sought to clarify whether higher magnesium intake from diet and supplements was associated with lower risks of PLC incidence and mortality in the US population. Magnesium intake from diet and supplements was evaluated through a food frequency questionnaire in a cohort of 104,025 participants. Cox regression...
