Filter by:This study aims to evaluate the photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) for the prevention of oral mucositis in osteosarcoma patients submitted to high doses of methotrexate, through two different protocols. As a hypothesis, photobiomodulation for the prevention of oral mucositis after cycles of Cisplatin, Doxorubicin and Methotrexate is more effective than just the application of preventive low-power laser after Methotrexate alone.
a three-arm head-to-head randomized clinical trial assessing two of the promising studied interventions, low-level diode laser and topical Chamomile, comparing them to each other's and to conventional therapy in the management of oral mucositis-induced chemotherapy.
The study is a Clinical Trial and the main objective is to Evaluate the effects of probiotics on oral complications induced by antineoplastic therapies in patients with head and neck cancer, attended at the radiotherapy service of the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO) Hospitalet and at the Dental Hospital of the University of Barcelona (HOUB), Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences Bellvitge campus during the period 2022- 2024. Research question: Is the use of probiotics compared to placebo effective in reducing oral complications produced by antineoplastic therapies in patients with head and neck cancer attended in the radiotherapy service at the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO) Hospitalet and the Dental Hospital of the University of Barcelona, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences campus Bellvitge during the period 2022- 2024?

The probiotics contain: Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG, Lactobacillus casei, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium breve, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium infantis and Lactobacillus bulgaricus. 1 x 10e10 Colony Forming Units (CFU). And the placebo composed of excipients. They are gluten free. Each patient will be given 1 sachet dissolved in water, to take 2-3 minutes of mouthfuls then swallow, after brushing, once a day, for 30 days.
The main aim of this study was to evaluate clinically the effect of a combination between oral vitamin D and oral zinc in comparison to conventional therapy in prevention of radiotherapy-induced oral mucositis in Assiut University Hospitals.
Objective: To compare the effects of two low-power laser therapy protocols (application of a wavelength in the mouth, red region and another in the neck infrared region X simultaneous dual application of two wavelengths, red and infrared region in the mouth and neck) in the prevention of oral mucositis and oropharyngeal pain, dysphagia, TPN and opioid use in patients undergoing HSCT allogenic. Materials and methods: This is a phase III, double-blind, randomized study that will use LBP to prevent oral mucositis and oropharyngeal pain in two protocols with different dosimetry (divided into Group A and Group B). Patients will be included enrolled at the Bone Marrow Transplant Center - Cancer Hospital I - INCA, with indication of allogeneic HSCT, over 18 years old, able to cooperate with the treatment and perform the oral hygiene protocol, who present oral mucosa complete on the first day of conditioning (D-7) and who agree to participate in the study through the term of free and clarified informed consent. The randomization will be carried out in permuted blocks using the REDCap® program by a member of the non-blind team. In group A, extraoral applications will be carried out with the issuance of radiation in the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum (808nm) and intraorally in the red region of the electromagnetic spectrum (660nm). In group B, the extra applications and intraoral will be performed with simultaneous double radiation emission in the regions red and infrared of the electromagnetic spectrum (660nm/808nm). for both groups will use the device from DMC (São Carlos, São Paulo, Brazil), with a indium gallium aluminum phosphide (InGaAlP) and aluminum gallium arsiade diode (AlGaAs), with a power of 100mW and a beam area of 0.09842 cm². The LBP will be performed by a dental surgeon, on weekdays, starting on D-7 and end on the day of the "marrow take" (patient presents 500 neutrophils for three days consecutive). The region treated in extraoral applications will be the carotid triangle bilateral, bounded by the superior belly of the omohyoid, posterior belly of the digastric and by the anterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle; and intraorally, the mucous membranes right and left cheeks, lower and upper lips, upper and lower labial mucous membranes, right and left lateral borders of the tongue, lingual belly, buccal floor and soft palate. Patients will be evaluated daily (weekdays per week) for oral mucositis, pain in the oral cavity and oropharynx, dysphagia, use of total parenteral nutrition and opioids. Patients and dentists responsible for evaluating patients will be blinded to the study, that is, they will not know about the treatment that the patient will receive. The data from interest will be collected from the physical records and electronic systems of the institution, through standardized forms and will be included in REDCap®. Statistical analyzes will be carried out using the latest available version of the R software for Windows. It will be A descriptive analysis of the data found in the clinical, laboratory and sociodemographic data. To compare the incidence of mucositis, dysphagia, pain (treating the variables as dichotomous), the chi-square test of Pearson. Statistical analyzes will be performed using the latest available version of the R software for Windows. A descriptive analysis of the data found will be carried out in clinical examination, laboratory and sociodemographic data. To compare the incidence of mucositis, dysphagia, pain (treating the variables as dichotomous), the Pearson's chi-square test. Mucositis-free survival analyzes (any degree) and dysphagia (any degree) will be performed by the Kaplan-Meier method and the curves compared by log-rank test. The time interval between the start of conditioning and date of first grade ≥1 mucositis or dysphagia to date of the "marrow take" (500 neutrophils in the peripheral blood for three consecutive days). Participants without mucositis or dysphagia will be censored on the date of marrow collection. Tests of hypothesis with p-value < 0.05. The sample calculation predicted 82 patients, who will be evaluated by intention of treatment, counting with 10% loss to reach 37 patients in group A and 37 in group B. The estimate of the presence of oral mucositis grades 2, 3 and 4 in group A is 36.8% and in group B 10%. The estimate of the presence of dysphagia grades 3 and 4 (or pain in oropharynx grades 2 and 3) in group A is 80% and in group B 40%. the statistical test The two-tailed Z test with pooled variance was used, with a type 1 error of 0.05 and the error type 2 of 0.20. This research project was approved by the Research Ethics Committee responsible (CAAE 67172223.9.0000.5274, opinion No. 5.947.434) and will be conducted in a according to Resolution 466/12 of the National Health Council and the Good News Guide Clinical Practices.
Objective: This study was conducted in order to examine the effect of oral self-care protocol based on Orem's Self-Care Deficiency Theory on oral mucositis and self-care agency. Method: This study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial between August 2021 and July 2022, patients with hematological malignancies receiving high-dose chemotherapy at the Izmir Ege University Faculty of Medicine Hospital and Izmir Training and Research Hospital. The sample of the study consisted of a total of 60 patients, including 30 application groups and 30 control groups, who met the inclusion criteria using the computer-based stratified randomization method. The study data were collected using "Patient Information Questionnaire," "WHO-Oral Mucositis Toxicity Scale," "Oral Assessment Guide," "Self-Care Agency Scale," "Data Collection Form Prepared According to Orem's Self-Care Deficiency Nursing Theory," "Oral Care Chart," and "Oral Cavity Photography." The oral self-care protocol, which includes training and oral care practices, was applied to the application group for 21 days from the beginning of chemotherapy treatment. The control group was not subjected to any oral care attempts by the researcher and received standard nursing care in the clinic. The data were evaluated by descriptive statistics, the Chi-square test, the Mann-Whitney U test, the Mc Ne-mar test, the Kappa compliance test, and the t test in dependent and independent groups.

The main objective of this study is to assess the impact of non-invasive photodynamic therapy by Curcumin and photo-bio-modulation low level (LL) laser treatment in managing mucositis induced by chemotherapy in pediatric patients. A randomized clinical trial will be conducted involving 90 patients aged between 3 years and 15 years. The trial will be open, controlled, and blinded, and the patients will be divided into two groups.
Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS) is experienced by almost everyone and appears suddenly. Even though the risk of death due to the condition is small, its presence can make a person feel uncomfortable eating, drinking, and talking so there will be a decrease in the quality of a person's life in their daily lives. Recently, α-Mangostin (α-M) from mangosteen rind (Garcinia mangostana L) has been shown its effect to reduce oral mucosal sores on RAS in preclinical studies in rats. Therefore, research is needed to prove the benefits (efficacy) and safety of therapy in the form of a hydrogel film patch/plaster film with a chitosan alginate base as a carrier for α-Mangostin for the treatment of RAS patients.
The goal of this observational study is to apply the CNN-based DL method to extract the three-dimensional spatial information of IMRT dose distribution to predict the occurrence probability of serious radiotherapy and chemotherapy induced oral mucositis(SRCOM), and compare with a model based on dosimetry, NTCP or doseomics to improve the prediction accuracy of SRCOM, thus guiding the clinical planning design, reducing the occurrence probability of OM, and may have the potential value of preventing serious complications and improving the quality of life in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
The goal of this study is to compare glutamine combined with thalidomide with glutamine alone in preventing radiation-induced oral mucositis.
