Filter by:Various risk factors defined in the literature should be eliminated in order for the patient to be able to use implant-supported prostheses for a longer period of time. In the literature, such a diagram for peri-implant risk factors was first described by Heitz-Mayfield in 2020. The scheme that will determine the peri-implant risk diagram is called "Implant Disease Risk Assessment (IDRA)". This tool provides evaluation of various risk factors on a single diagram. In this study, peri-implant risk diagrams will be determined by calling the patients who have previously completed implant treatment in Kütahya University of Health Sciences Faculty of Dentistry Department of Periodontology, and the change in the risk profile assessment will be re-evaluated after the risk factors that can be eliminated are eliminated. In this study, it is aimed to predict the risk of inflammation and alveolar bone loss of the tissues around the implant that may occur in the future in patients who have undergone dental implant treatment, and to evaluate the risk profiles.
1. Objectives: To evaluate the influence of the shape and contour of implant-supported restorations on peri-implant soft and hard tissues by using an intraoral scanner. 2. Material and methods: 1. Number of patients to be treated: 120 2. Number of visits per patient: 1 3. Brief description of the different techniques used in the study, authorized and validated in the literature (3-5 lines). A clinical and radiographic evaluation of the dental implants of those patients who are undergoing maintenance therapy treated by the Department of Periodontics of the International University of Catalonia prior to 2017 will be carried out. Additionally, a digital scan of the crown will be carried out using a intraoral scanner. Finally, patients will fill out a questionnaire about their routine dental care. 4. Benefits and harms of participating in the study for the patient Participating in this study implies irradiating the patient through a periapical x-ray in order to assess the bone level of their implants and therefore be able to diagnose the presence or absence of peri-implant disease. Regarding the possible benefits, the patient will help the scientific community to determine the ideal contour and shape of the implant-supported restoration that will prevent the appearance of peri-implant diseases. Likewise, patients will undergo an exhaustive clinical and radiographic review that will allow their dental and periodontal status to be updated. 5. Alternative treatment in case the patient does not wish to participate in the clinical study As this is an observational study, there is no alternative treatment. The patient will have absolute freedom to decline to participate in the study. 6. Treatment to be carried out in the event that complications arise in the patient, once the clinical study has begun If after handling the prosthesis, it is detected that any of the screws that support the prostheses are loose or defective, the MORE department will be informed in order to replace said accessory. On the other hand, they would be informed in the same way in case of detecting any complication/alteration with the patient's implant-supported crowns. 7. Material needed to carry out the study ( To carry out this study, you will need posterior radiographic positioners, radiographs, an intraoral scanner (3Shape Trios®), the implant analogs or replicas, and a basic periodontal examination set (exploratory probe, periodontal probe, Nabers probe, mirror). and tweezers). 3. Evaluation of experimental and statistical results (3 lines) - The data obtained will be analyzed through a descriptive statistical analysis (mean, median and standard deviations). The qualitative variables will be expressed in frequencies and percentages. In addition, logistic regression analyzes will be performed to determine the association between peri-implant status (at the implant and patient level) and the angle/emergence of implant-supported prostheses.
This study aims to: - Evaluate the possible protective effect of pentoxifylline against oxaliplatin induced peripheral neuropathy and chemotherapy induced mucositis in patients with stage II and stage III colorectal cancer. This study will be a randomized placebo controlled parallel study.48 patients with colorectal cancer will be randomized to 2 groups: Group I (control group; n=24) which will receive 12 cycles of FOLFOX-6 regimen plus placebo tablets twice daily. Group II (Pentoxiphylline group; n=24) which will receive FOLFOX-6 regimen in addition to pentoxifylline 400 mg twice daily. Blood sample collection and biochemical assessment: - Malondialdehyde (MDA) as oxidative stress marker (colorimetry). - Tumor necrosis factor alfa (TNF-α) as pro inflammatory marker (ELISA). - Neurotensin (NT) as a potential marker for neuropathic pain (ELISA). - Citrulline as a biomarker for mucositis (ELISA). Clinical assessment of oxaliplatin induced neuropathy will be done through: The assessment of the severity of neuropathic pain through "Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form" at baseline and by the end of every two chemotherapy cycles. The implication of National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE, Version 5, 2017) for grading of neuropathy every 2 cycles. The use of Neurotoxicity- 12 item questionnaire score (Ntx-12) from the validated Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group at baseline and by the end of every two chemotherapy cycles). Mucositis will be assessed at baseline and by the end of every two chemotherapy cycles through the use of common terminology criteria for adverse events "CTCAE, version 5.00, 2017
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).
Introduction: Oral mucositis is one of the most frequent complications associated with chemotherapy, occurring in up to 90% children receiving treatment for cancer. Different treatment modalities have been suggested with inconsistent results. Recently, it has been suggested that the use of laser could reduce the grade of oral mucositis and alleviate the symptoms. Aim: To evaluate and compare the efficacy between the high (Infrared) wavelength laser and low (red) wavelength laser in management of chemotherapy induced oral mucositis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Methods: This study is a randomized, prospective, double-blind trial that will include acute lymphoblastic leukemia inpatients receiving induction chemotherapy between the age of 3 and 14years who develop oral mucositis grade 2 or more. These patients will be randomized by the Clinical Epidemiology unit using a computer-based method into three groups. Group I: will be treated with Laser wavelength 660 nm, group II: will be treated with laser wavelength 970 nm, and group III: will receive mock treatment which is the exact repetition of the treatment modality but without any laser emission. All the patients will follow the hospital standard management for oral mucositis. All patients will be assessed for pain score using CHIMES, oral mucositis using NCI-CTCAE scale V5 on days, 0,4,7 and 11. As well as measuring the duration of the lesion.
The purpose of this study is to learn if virgin coconut oil (VCO) mouth rinse can help prevent oral mucositis. The Study Investigator will compare standard of care mucositis prevention rinses with the VCO mouth rinse added to the standard of care mucositis prevention rinses. The severity of oral mucositis between the 2 groups will be evaluated. Some of the standard of care rinses that can be used to prevent mucositis are normal saline, Benadryl (diphenhydramine), Mylanta, lidocaine, or other combinations.
The purpose of oral care is to reduce the effect of oral pathological microbial flora and to prevent infection, pain, and bleeding associated with cancer treatment. New agents are introduced each day to be used in the prevention and treatment of mucositis in cancer treatment. One of those agents is the Ankaferd Hemostat. Ankaferd Hemostat has pleiotropic effects and anti-infective characteristics in tissue healing. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Ankaferd Hemostat in the prevention of oral mucositis due to chemotherapy in adult patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer. The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study to be conducted with patients who are recently diagnosed with colorectal cancer and will receive the first course of chemotherapyd. The data were collected using the Performance Score and the Oral Mucositis Evaluation Scale.
The combination of diclofenac and propolis could enhance the healing of recurrent aphthous ulcers, instantly relieve symptoms, improve the quality of life, and present a de novo and cost-effective regime help in oral ulcer treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of diclofenac and propolis combination as a gel in the treatment of recurrent oral ulceration
According to the data from the World Health Organization, approximately 14 million people are diagnosed with cancer every year, and this number is expected to increase further in the next 10 years. Multidisciplinary treatment consisting of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery is applied in childhood cancers. In chemotherapy, the target is cancerous cells, but high doses of chemotherapeutic agents do not have selectivity. Intact tissue cells are also affected by this cytotoxicity. Mucositis develops in the patient, especially as a result of the mucosal cells being affected. Mucositis is defined as damage to the mucosa lining the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, oesophagus and gastrointestinal tract due to cancer treatment. It is one of the most important side effects of both chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This study is carried out to determine the effectiveness of propolis in preventing the formation of oral mucositis due to multiple use of chemotherapeutic drugs.
As mentioned above, several prior studies have shown the positive effects of oral use of aloe vera juice in managing chemotherapy and radiation-induced oral mucositis and esophagitis. This study aims to add to the existing body of research around aloe vera juice and its effects on oral mucositis and esophagitis. The intention is to determine whether aloe vera juice should be considered as part of standard treatment.
