Filter by:This study aims to identify new biomarkers that indicate the resilience of individuals to developing oral disease. An 'experimental gingivitis' model will be employed in which subjects will refrain from oral hygiene in one quadrant of their mouths for 3 weeks, and will then restore oral hygiene. Gum inflammation will be monitored by clinical measures throughout the trial and samples will be collected for analysis of microbial DNA and RNA.
A randomized, crossover, double-blind, two-sessions clinical trial with 30 male volunteers was performed to access pain of local anesthesia after using a topical anesthetic associated or not with prior application of microneedles to the palatal mucosa region
This will be a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled two-arm parallel groups study of the effect of oral probiotics containing Streptococcus salivarius K12 on oral biofilm, salivation rate, and secretory immunoglobulin A salivary level. The aim of the study is to assess the effect of oral probiotics containing Streptococcus salivarius K12 strain on oral biofilm, unstimulated salivary flow rate, and salivary secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) levels.
1. Burden: Hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) characterized by skin rash in extremities, mouth ulcer and fever among <5 years children.Primarily caused by Enterovirus- predominantly human Enterovirus (EV) 71 and Coxsackie virus (CoxA). Several large epidemics have been reported worldwide.Large Asia-Pacific epidemic-in China in 2008, approximately 490,000 infections and 126 deaths of children. EV71 contributes severe and fatal cases e.g. encephalitis.A recent outbreak of HFMD in Bhubaneswar, Odisha in India indicates there is a chance of HFMD outbreaks in Bangladesh. However there is not much report of HFMD from Bangladesh. 2. Knowledge gap: EV71 is most commonly transmitted via close person-to-person contact. Since there is no known effective treatment for HFMD and as the causative virus is highly contagious, hand washing is the best defense for prevention. However, asymptomatic or mild nature of the infection leads to ineffectiveness of public health interventions like hand washing. Thus the symptomatic management remains the mainstay of treatment strategy for HFMD as of now. EV71 vaccine, an inactivated vaccine, developed by Sinovac Biotech Ltd has shown satisfactory safety and effectiveness through Phase III trials conducted in various regions of mainland China, This new vaccine has the potential to significantly reduce suffering and death from EV71 disease in China. However, it is not assessed on Bangladeshi child. 3. Relevance: Due to the absence of effective public health strategy and proper treatment, the development of an effective vaccine may be the best way to control EV71 infection.
In this study, it is aimed to investigate the mouth handicap in Systemic Sclerosis.
Background: Oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) is a condition with an increased risk of oral cancer. Due to the current changes in the factors associated with these diseases (because of human papillomavirus), it is expected that those who have no history of smoking or alcohol, young (<50 years old), and white male would be commonly affected. Those individuals require a higher need for information, preferred a more active role in decision-making, and have a longer lifespan than older individuals. There remain no detailed studies of whether the informational needs delivered to patients with OED met their needs or indeed what information such patient may wish. A few tools are available to evaluate the IN of patients with head and neck disorders. However, the items of these instruments were dedicated to a particular disease (e.g. cancer) and hence are not applicable to be used for OED. Project aims: To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Oral Epithelial Dysplasia Informational Needs Questionnaire (ODIN-Q), developed and revised in the preliminary work for the proposed study, in a cohort of patients with OED. Timescale: 19 months. Clinical significance: This questionnaire can be useful in clinical practice. It could help to meet the patient's information needs and plan educational interventions for those showing unmet needs.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Immunogenicity and safety of the simultaneously vaccination of Inactivated Enterovirus 71 Vaccine (EV71) and seasonal influenza vaccine(SIV)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of concomitant administration of EV71 vaccine with measles mumps, and rubella combined live attenuated vaccine/ encephalitis live attenuated vaccine.
determination of the relative frequency of oral and maxillofacial pathological lesions among the Egyptian children and compare it with the global reports.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the non-inferiority of experimental EV71 vaccine compared to the control EV71 vaccine in children aged 36-71 months, to evaluate the non-inferiority of EV71 vaccine used in children aged 36-71 months compared to 6-35 months. The experimental vaccine was manufactured by Sinovac Biotech Co., Ltd, and the control vaccine was manufactured by Institute of Medical Biology Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences.
