Filter by:Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) has been the material of choice for fabricating complete dentures for more than 80 years now.(1,2) As a material it is easy to handle and can be easily repaired and polished. PMMA while being a low-cost material has good esthetics. Some disadvantages of PMMA as a material are surface roughness and porosities which lead to staining, plaque accumulation and bacterial adhesion over time. Among the various factors that can influence microbial attachment to surfaces, surface roughness, hydrophilicity and free surface energy of PMMA are most important. Carboxylate and methyl ester groups found in PMMA make it a very hydrophilic material with a large amount of free surface energy. Despite the influence of the chemical composition, processing methods play the most important role in developing surface roughness.
Inpatients or outpatients diagnosed with head and neck cancer who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were referred to the co-investigator(Dr. Chih-Jen Huang and Dr. Hui-Ching Wang), who then personally explained to each participant, the purpose and conduct of the study, so that they all understood their rights and interests before giving a written consent.
Evaluate the efficacy and safety for the prevention of oral mucositis and PK of MIT-001 for lymphoma or multiple myeloma patients receiving conditioning chemotherapy for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(auto-HSCT).
Cigarette smoking in conjugation with bad oral hygiene is considered a typical predisposing factor for many oral diseases including denture stomatitis. This study investigated the effect of Rose Bengal (RB)-and Curcumin (CUR)-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT) in comparison with nystatin therapy in the intervention of denture stomatitis in cigarette smokers. Overall, 45 habitual cigarette smokers aged ~58 years having denture stomatitis were categorized into three groups: Group-I - RB-mediated PDT, Group-II - CUR-mediated PDT, and Group-III - Nystatin therapy. The primary outcome of the interest was: counts of Candida colony from denture surface and palatal mucosa, calculated as CFU/mL, whereas the prevalence of Candida species determined in 3 research groups comprised the secondary outcome. Oral swab specimens were gathered from the denture surfaces and palatal mucosa. All clinical assessments were performed at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks. C. albicans was the most prevalent yeast identified on both denture surfaces and palatal mucosa, followed by C. tropicalis and C. glabrata. A considerable decrease in the CFU/mL scores were observed in Group-I and Group-II at the end of the interventions and on the 12-week follow-up (p<0.05). Group-I, II, and III demonstrated clinical efficacy rates of 53%, 51%, and 49%, respectively. CUR-and RB-mediated PDT was found to be as effective as topical Nystatin therapy for the intervention of denture stomatitis among cigarette smokers.
evaluate preventive and therapeutic effects of Rebamipide gargle on reducing incidence of oral mucositis in comparison with benzydamine HCL mouthwash.
The overall purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of the MuReva Phototherapy System with a light delivery mouthpiece to reduce the severity of oral mucositis (OM) in adult patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, oropharynx, tonsils and base of tongue receiving radiation therapy with or without concurrent chemotherapy.
In this prospective, randomised, controlled, open-label, Phase III, non-inferiority clinical trial trial patients with a diagnosis of myeloma who were undergoing autologous HSCT were randomised 1:1 to receive cryotherapy for 7 hours or 2 hours . Oral mucositis was evaluated prospectively.
This study will examine if the administration of prophylactic MucoLox formulation versus sodium bicarbonate mouthwash in subjects with head/neck cancer receiving radiation ± chemotherapy will result in significantly fewer subjects experiencing severe mucositis.
This is a phase 3, open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ulinastatin, a kind of protease inhibitor, in the treatment of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis in localregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT). To Explore a new and efficient way to reduce the incidence and severity of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis.
Background: The Ebola virus causes a severe disease. It can be fatal. The usual incubation period after being exposed is 2 to 21 days. There is no approved treatment for Ebola infection. There is also no vaccine to prevent infection either before or after exposure. Researchers want to test an Ebola vaccine. They want to give it to people before they are exposed to the virus in order to prevent the disease. Objectives: To see how long-lasting and effective the vaccine rVSV[delta]G ZEBOV-GP (V920) is at preventing Ebola. Eligibility: Healthy adults at risk of exposure to the Ebola virus at work through lab or clinical contact. Design: Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. Participants will get the study vaccine. It will be injected into their upper arm. Participants will be monitored closely for at least 30 minutes. They will get a diary card to record any symptoms they have from the vaccine for up to 14 days. Participants will have study visits at 1, 3, and 6 months after they get the vaccine, then every 6 months (that is, at months 12, 18, 19, 24, 30, and 36 of study) for a total of 36 months. Eighteen months after they join the study, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group will get a second (or booster ) dose of the vaccine. The other group will not get a second dose. This study lasts 36 months. ...
