The aim of the study to compare the clinical effectiveness of Shield Force Plus (SFP) versus sodium fluoride varnish in the management of hypersensitivity of cervical dentin in adult patients for 8weeks.
Penicillin allergy is the most common drug allergy reported by patients. Approximately 10% of the population and 20% of inpatients carry a label of penicillin allergy. However, less than 5%-10% of them have a confirmed allergy following comprehensive investigations. Reported penicillin allergy leads to higher medical costs and excess complications and presents a major challenge to antimicrobial stewardship. There is a high demand for allergy services however penicillin allergy testing (including skin testing and oral drug challenge) is not routinely available for inpatients even in major centres. Direct oral amoxicillin challenges are safe and effective in delabeling low risk patients who report penicillin allergy in large paediatric and adult studies and does not necessitate specialist referral. The study team seeks to determine the safety and efficacy of a single-dose oral penicillin challenge pilot program in adult in-patients with self-reported penicillin allergy admitted to hospital under the internal medicine Clinical Teaching Unit (CTU). The study investigators will determine the number of patients successfully delabelled of their "penicillin allergy" prior to discharge from hospital over a 12 month period. The study doctors will also assess the economic impact of the investigator's model and ease of implementation in the busy inpatient setting. In the future this model could be implemented generally as an inpatient or outpatient penicillin allergy program where low risk patients, who do not require referral to an allergist, are expeditiously delabelled.
Background: Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is defined as high sensitivity of the vital dentin when exposed to thermal, chemical or tactile stimuli. Two mechanisms are required for the occurrence of DH: 1) the dentin must be exposed and 2) the dentinal tubules must be open and connected to the pulp. Molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is a qualitative abnormality of a genetic origin that affects tooth enamel and, in most cases, is accompanied by DH. The control of tooth sensitivity is fundamental to the successful treatment of MIH. Objective: The aim of the proposed randomized, controlled, clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of different protocols for the control of DH in patients with teeth affected by MIH. Methods: One hundred forty patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be allocated to four groups. Group 1 will be the control group (placebo). In Group 2, sensitive teeth will be sealed with Permaseal (Ultradent). In Group 3, sensitive teeth will receive low-level laser (LLL) (AsGaAl) at a wavelength of 780 nm (Laser XT Therapy, DMC, São Carlos, SP, Brazil). In Group 4, sensitive teeth will be treated with both LLL and Permaseal (Ultradent). DH will be evaluated 15 min after the application of the treatments and the patients will be reevaluated one week, one month, three months and six months after the treatments. Discussion: This study will enable the determination of differences in the effectiveness of the proposed treatments as well as differences among the evaluation times for each proposed treatment.
Allergy to tree nuts are frequent in children but allergy to almond is one of the less described tree nuts allergy. The main objective of our study is to determine diagnostic values of skin prick-tests and specific IgE to almond in a population of children sensitized to almond and challenged in our unit from november 2013 to march 2020.
The objectives of this study are to determine in children allergic to peanut (i) the prevalence of sensitization to other legumes, (ii) the prevalence of allergy to each legume in patients who are sensitized to it (iii ) the severity of the allergy to legumes other than peanut
This study evaluate the mineral status of infants with cow's milk protein allergy which is affected due to the elimination of milk , and the change in this mineral status after receiving amino acid - based formula for 12 weeks.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of different protocols in controlling dentin hypersensitivity in patients with teeth affected by MIH. The subjects will be randomly designated in four experimental groups, according to different treatments. Pain will be assessed with the visual analog scale (Visual Analogue Scale - VAS), after stimulation with air from the triple syringe and and an exploratory probe at the time of (initial) recruitment, immediately after treatment, after 1 week and 1 month, 3 and 6 months after treatment.
The study will be a single-center, longitudinal, triple-masked (for participants, operators, and statistician), equal ratio, randomized non-crossover design. The study designed following the criteria described by Holland et al 1997. The current experiments will follow CONSORT guidelines and will be registered at the US National Institutes of Health (ClinicalTrials.gov). The sensitivity scores will be measured at three intervals: at baseline, at 2 weeks, and at 6 weeks. The duration of the current study estimated to be 6 weeks and will be conducted between January 2020 and March 2020. The study protocol will be submitted initially to the Ethical Committee of the Aseer Central Hospital, Aseer region, Saudi Arabia. After getting the approval and facilitation letters, the participants will be selected randomly from patients attending periodontal clinics at Aseer Dental Center, Aseer region.
Visceral hypersensitivity is frequent in IBS population up to 60% and is correlated with severity and altered quality of life. Sleeping troubles are most frequent in IBS population. Insomnia is a frequent disorder with an important cost for healthcare. Insomnia could decrease pain threshold. Visceral hypersensitivity was never measure in patients with insomnia. The hypothesis is IBS patients with insomnia probably have lower visceral pain threshold. The objective is to assess pain threshold during a barostat procedure in in IBS patients with or without insomnia in comparison with healthy volunteers or patients with insomnia. If the hypothesis are confirmed, insomnia should be look at in IBS patients and its treatments could improve visceral hypersensitivity and IBS symptoms.
