Increasing ALP levels occurred from day 7 with the highest peak on day 14 post-stabilization. The purpose of this research was to analyze the effect of blue-LED exposure during the stabilization period on ALP levels in the tension side GCF of Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) at days 0, 3, 7, and 14 post-stabilizations.\u0000 \u0000Materials and Methods: Ten male Wistar rats aged 2.5-3 months, weighing 200-250 grams were divided into two groups (control and LED group). An orthodontic force of 35 grams was applied to the mandibular inter incisors of Wistar rats using an open coil spring. Blue-LED (490 nm wavelength, 1000 mW/cm² light intensity) exposure for 30 seconds once a day during a 7-day stabilization period. Gingival crevicular fluid was taken with paper points on days 0, 3, 7, and 14 post-stabilizations for ALP levels measurement using an ELISA method. Two-way ANOVA and Post Hoc LSD statistical tests were performed.\u0000 \u0000Results: The results showed LED group ALP levels were higher than the control group. There has been a significant increase in ALP levels on days 7 and 14 in the control and LED groups.\u0000 \u0000Conclusion: It was concluded that blue-LED exposure increased tension side ALP levels. Increasing ALP levels occurred from day 7 with the highest peak level on day 14. Blue-LED exposure in the stabilization period is a favorable therapeutic option to accelerate alveolar bone formation due to being non-invasive, easy to apply clinically, and low cost.","PeriodicalId":51650,"journal":{"name":"BioMedicine-Taiwan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42319194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is quite challenging for the dentist since the oral hard and soft tissue structures show great variations in every patient. Conventional impression materials such as agar, alginate and elastomeric impression materials are used but these impression materials require patient’s cooperation during impression taking. These impression materials sometimes cause gagging, irritation and unpleasant taste and smell to the patient. To overcome these drawbacks digital impression and digital scanners are encouraging innovations. They increase the patient’s comfort and aids in the accuracy in recording tissue details. The development of new technology in the medical and dental fields is leading to advancements that enable physicians to create treatments and materials that can enhance patients' quality of life. Different IOSs have adopted varied scanning methodologies, which could result in different scanning accuracies. This was done to compare the accuracy of several IOSs and the effects of different variables on the accuracy result. Using 3D scanning technologies, a physical model which is digital three-dimensional computer-aided design (CAD) is transformed. For the design and production of specific parts using additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, this digital output offers several advantages. It is crucial to evaluate the dentistry industry's present level of 3D scanning technology utilization.","PeriodicalId":51650,"journal":{"name":"BioMedicine-Taiwan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48209505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is known to recruit dermo-genic stem cells and help in healing. Very few studies are there to evaluate its potential in this regard. This study evaluates intradermal infiltration of G-CSF for its effectiveness, effect on treatment delay and quality of life in comparison to conventional treatment for grade 3/4 RISR.\u0000 \u0000Materials and Methods: Patients experiencing advanced RISR due to any regimen of external beam radiation above 50 Gy of 2 Gy equivalent doses were randomized to undergo treatment either with intradermal G-CSF infiltration at margin and bases of lesion along with conventional therapies or with only conventional anti-inflammatory/ antibiotic therapy. The experimental arm and the control arm had 62 and 60 patients respectively analyzed for time taken for re-epithelization and treatment delay. Also.pre and two weeks post-treatment global quality of life and pain scores were taken for qualitative comparison between the arms.\u0000 \u0000Results: G-CSF arm took a mean 5.2 (95percent CI=4.4-5.7) days, significantly less than conventional treatment arm (Mean=7.5 days, 95percent CI= 6.8-8.1,p=0.002) for re-epithelization. Grade of toxicity adjusted hazard ratio of non-resolution in 10 days time was 2.98 for the control arm over the experimental arm(p=.046). Treatment gap was significantly less in the G-CSF arm (48.4 percent vs 68.3percent, p=0.026), with average delay of treatment being significantly reduced (p 0.001). A ten-day delay adjusted survival was significantly better in the experimental arm (Mantel-Cox Log rank test, X2=12.26, p 0.001).\u0000 \u0000Conclusion: Intradermal perilesional G-CSF infiltration for advanced RISR hastens wound healing compared to conventional treatment and significantly reduces the chances of treatment delay.","PeriodicalId":51650,"journal":{"name":"BioMedicine-Taiwan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45123700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

FIXIT is a topical ointment, consisting of plant-based ingredients; its specific components have been successful in treating knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, these have not been applied for TMJ ID conditions (lacuna in literature). The aim of this study is, therefore, to evaluate the effectiveness of FIXIT in TMJ ID management by assessing TMJ pain, clicking sound and pain-free maximum mouth opening (MMO) in an 18-year-old male. The patient complained of right TMJ pain (VAS- 8) on mouth opening, and loud clicking sounds, with pain-free MMO of 19 mm pre-treatment. Post-topical therapy (after 3 weeks) with FIXIT, significant reduction in TMJ pain (VAS- 0) and joint sounds (absent- 0), with improved MMO (47 mm) was noted. No recurrence of symptoms was observed after 3 months of follow-up. FIXIT has been effective in alleviating TMJ ID symptoms, thereby enhancing overall jaw function. Its ability to eliminate clicking sounds was found to be an unprecedented finding; suggesting it’ novelty as a non-surgical intervention for TMJ ID.","PeriodicalId":51650,"journal":{"name":"BioMedicine-Taiwan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42547750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It becomes essential to look at the other options of treatment of such urinary tract infections (UTI) and one such option has been the use of bacteriophages. The study aimed to compare the biofilms formed by uropathogenic Escherichia coli on three different types of urinary catheters in the presence of crude coliphage and sub-inhibitory concentration of ciprofloxacin.\u0000 \u0000Materials and Methods: It was an Institution based experimental study. A total of 10 red rubber (latex) catheter pieces, 10 Foley (PVC) catheter pieces and 10 silicone Foley catheter pieces were used for the study. Crude coliphage suspension was prepared from sewage samples taken from the sewage treatment plant. Biofilm production by ten uropathogenic E. coli isolates on these catheters was determined by Kolter and O’Toole’s method with certain modifications. Biofilm assay was repeated with conditions using crude bacteriophage and sub-inhibitory concentration. An electron micrograph of the catheter pieces was taken to visualize the biofilm formed. P value of 0.05 was considered statistically significant.\u0000 \u0000Results: It was observed that, in the presence of crude bacteriophage there was a significant reduction in the biofilm formation on all three catheters (p 0.05). Also, there was a significant reduction in biofilm production in the presence of sub-inhibitory concentration of ciprofloxacin on silicone Foley’s catheter (p=0.001) but not on red rubber catheter or PVC Foley’s catheter (p 0.05). It was also observed that in some of the isolates the colony counts increased following the addition of ciprofloxacin in case of PVC Foley catheters.\u0000 \u0000Conclusion: Bacteriophage-coated catheters may be the gateway to overcoming the hurdle of multidrug-resistant catheter-associated urinary tract infection.","PeriodicalId":51650,"journal":{"name":"BioMedicine-Taiwan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41628557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
