NSAIDs like ibuprofen are used throughout the world to treat fever and pain. Physicians cast doubt that they influence our immune response to the coronavirus (Pexels/)On Saturday, the French health minister, Olivier Véran, tweeted that taking anti-inflammatory drugs—even over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen, Advil, and Aleve—could worsen cases of COVID-19. “If you are already taking anti-inflammatory drugs or you have questions, ask your doctor for advice,” he tweeted in French. This advice,...

Abstract Purpose Exposure to elevated concentrations of respirable particulate matter (< 10 μm) may influence sleep-disordered breathing. Burn pits as utilized by the US military in the Middle East until 2011 produced elevated particle matter concentrations. We seek to determine if subjective exposure to burn pits during deployment affects prevalence or severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in military personnel. ...

Abstract Purpose According to the cognitive processing perspectives, patients with insomnia have insufficient neural management of expressional information. In this study, we compared the pre-attentive processing function of task-irrelevant facial expressions in patients with primary insomnia (PI) and matched healthy controls, with expression-related mismatch negativity (EMMN) elicited by emotional faces as the indicator. ...

Abstract Objective To analyze the gene and immunohistochemical expression of HIF‐1α, GLUT‐1, FASN and Adipophilin in normal salivary gland (NSG), pleomorphic adenoma (PA) and carcinoma ex‐pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) samples. Material and Methods The gene expression was investigated by the Real Time PCR (qRT‐PCR) method in 9 samples of frozen tissues of normal salivary gland, 13 PA and 10 CXPA. We validated the reactions by immunohistochemistry on 20 samples from NSG, 85 PA and 44...

Novel finite element based plate design for bridging mandibular defects; reducing mechanical failure
Abstract Introduction When the application of a free vascularised flap is not possible, a segmental mandibular defect is often reconstructed using a conventional reconstruction plate. Mechanical failure of such reconstructions is mostly caused by plate fracture and screw pull‐out. This study aims to develop a reliable, mechanically superior, yet slender patient‐specific reconstruction plate that reduces failure due to these causes. Patients & Methods Eight patients were included...

Abstract LncRNA MAFG‐AS1 is predicted to interact with miR‐146a, which can target toll‐like receptor 4 (TLR4), a key player in periodontitis. This study aimed to investigate the roles of MAFG‐AS1 in periodontitis. It was observed that MAFG‐AS1 was downregulated in the human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) derived from periodontitis‐affected teeth. Dual luciferase assay revealed that co‐transfection of MAFG‐AS1 expression vector and miR‐146a mimic showed significantly lower relative luciferase...

Abstract Objective miR‐146a is widely induced during the immune response. However, little is known about the biogenesis, function and mechanism of miR‐146a in cementoblasts during the pathogenesis of periodontitis. This study aimed to investigate the effects of miR‐146a in murine cementoblast derived OCCM‐30 cells following IL‐1β stimulation. Materials And Methods OCCM‐30 cells were cultured and exposed to IL‐1β. IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α and miR‐146a‐5p expression was assessed by qRT‐PCR....

For patients with cardiopulmonary illnesses such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD or congestive heart failure (CHF), few technologies exist to effectively monitor and manage their conditions in a convenient way. Pulmonary artery catheters and implants, that can help with monitoring, have successfully reduced heart failure hospitalizations, but these implants are highly invasive and costly. Respirix is developing a non-invasive device that aims to detect CHF decompensation and...

RefleXion Medical, a company based outside of Oakland, California, won FDA clearance for its RefleXion X1 machine to be used for stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), and intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). The X1 brings together fan-beam CT imaging and a linear accelerator inside a gantry that can spin up to 60 times faster than existing therapeutic particle accelerators and modulate the radiation dose from 100 points per beam station. This can help...

Epithelioid angiomyolipomas (EAMLs) are mesenchymal tumors that are part of the family of the perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasms (PEComas). These tumors portray a potential aggressive behavior with metastatic lesions found in around 30% of reported cases. EAMLs might present sporadically or in association with the tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). They typically involve the kidneys, liver, and lungs. It is extremely rare for these tumors to arise from other organs. The present report describes...

Histoplasmosis is caused by Histoplasma capsulatum, and commonly it causes an asymptomatic illness. Although Histoplasma is the commonest organism to infect adrenal glands, disseminated histoplasmosis in an immune-competent host leading to adrenal insufficiency is rare in current literature. Here, we report a case of possible disseminated histoplasmosis leading to adrenal crisis in a young Asian immunocompetent male. A 42-year-old Sri Lankan male with noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus presented...

Calcium uremic aortic disease (calciphylaxis) has long been considered as a rare, life-threatening small vessel disease. The diagnosis of calciphylaxis depends mainly on clinical symptoms and high risk factors, and skin biopsy can be used to confirm the diagnosis. However, noninvasive testing methods are still the focus of exploration currently. There is increasing evidence that bone scintigraphy is helpful in the diagnosis of calciphylaxis, especially for assessing the involvement of muscles and...
