Gingivitis
2014
Gingival inflammation is caused by bacterial plaque (dental biofilm) that accumulates daily on the teeth. Results in redness, slight swelling, or "puffiness" of the gums and bleeding on tooth brushing. Treatment involves thorough professional tooth cleaning and effective daily removal of dental plaque by tooth brushing and cleaning between the teeth. Necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis (NUG) is a more serious condition that is mainly found in developing countries associated with people with severe malnutrition or HIV/AIDS with low CD4 T-cell counts.
Incremento della temperatura lungo la superficie radicolare durante la tecnica dell’onda continua di condensazione
2008
INTRODUZIONE: Le temperature raggiunte degli strumenti portatori di calore, durante la condensazione a caldo della guttaperca, sono molto elevate. Ciò potrebbe rappresentare una fonte di danno iatrogeno a livello delle strutture parodontali sottoposte ad un eccessivo stress termico. SCOPO DEL LAVORO: Valutazione termografica a infrarossi dell’incremento della temperatura lungo la superficie radicolare, durante la tecnica dell’onda continua di condensazione. MATERIALI E METODI: Venti incisivi laterali mascellari, estratti per motivi parodontali, sono stati selezionati e alesati con M-two. In tutti i campioni è stata eseguita un’otturazione canalare mediante coni di guttaperca non standardizz…
Attualità e future prospettive terapeutiche
2005
La ricerca di base e clinica sul glaucoma costituisce oggi uno dei principali campi di impegno scientifico del mondo oftalmologico. E questo dipende da svariati fattori, quali la cronicità di una patologia seconda causa di cecità nel mondo, con il conseguente onere sociale che ne deriva; il progressivo invecchiamento anagrafico delle aree occidentali con incremento di prevalenza del glaucoma primario ad angolo aperto (POAG) o chiuso (PACG); i recenti successi terapeutici in campo chirurgico e soprattutto medico, che negli ultimi 25 anni hanno creato un circolo virtuoso in termini di impiego di uomini e di risorse. C’è da aggiungere che man mano che la generazione del “baby boom” post-bellic…

The relationship between endothlial ABD erectile dysfunction, levels of testosterone and cardiovascular events in the follow-up
2016
Background: Clinical and experimental evidence suggest that testosterone levels play a role in cardiac and vascular pathology. A long history of observational studies investigating serum testosterone level and cardiovascular risks, specifically mortality, reveals important associations between low testosterone and mortality, while higher serum testosterone level appear to be predictive in the majority of studies. On the other hand, it is well documented and accepted that endothelial dysfunction is expression of preclinical atherosclerosis and it is associated with an increased amount of CV events in the follow-up. Erectile dysfunction is also an early manifestation of arteriosclerosis assoc…
Testosterone levels are directly related with erectile function and endothelial function in men with intermediate risk according to the Framingham sc…

Background. The value of testosterone levels and erectile dysfunction (ED) as early markers of atherosclerosis is not well understood. Objectives. To analyze the relationship between plasma testosterone levels in men with both endothelial function (F) and ED. Methods. We enrolled 802 asymptomatic, intermediate cardiovascular risk patients, according to the Framingham Risk Score, aged 40 to 80 years, who underwent the study of EF, evaluation of ED and dosage of plasma testosterone. Results. At linear regression, EF (t=9.40; 95% CI from 0.9318 to 1.4234; p<0.0001) and erectile function (t=8.96; 95% CI from 0.7642 to 1.1932; p<0.0001) statistically increased with increasing levels of testoster…

The role of oral health professionals in tobacco cessation
2008
Tobacco is the major independent risk factor for the development of oral cancer and potentially malignant lesions. It is also involved in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. The members of the dental team can play an effective role in tobacco preventing and cessation as they provide preventive and therapeutic services to a basically healthy population on a regular basis. In this paper, the authors present specific strategies to guide oral health professionals (i.e. dentist and dental hygienist) providing smoking cessation interventions. The “Five A’s” strategic approach represents a brief and effective protocol for smoking cessation that members of dental team can use with all patients…
