Inhibition of murine IgE and immediate cutaneous hypersensitivity responses to ovalbumin by the immunomodulatory agent leflunomide

1999

SUMMARYLeflunomide has been identified as an immunoregulatory and anti-inflammatory compound. Allergic disease is characterized by elevated serum IgE levels, production of allergen-specific IgE and the release of inflammatory mediators from mast cells and granulocytes. Here we demonstrate, using an in vivo murine model, the ability of leflunomide to down-regulate levels of total and allergen-specific serum IgE production. Mice receiving leflunomide (45 mg/kg) orally at the time of primary immunization with ovalbumin adsorbed to aluminium hydroxide adjuvant, showed a reduction in total serum IgE levels of 95%, 41% and 32% following primary, secondary and tertiary immunizations, respectively …

Allergen-specific immune deviation from a T H2 to a T H1 response induced by dendritic cells and collagen type I

1999

Background: Atopy and IgE production are associated with enhanced allergen-specific TH2 responses. Therefore a causative treatment may result from the deviation of this T H2dominated immune response toward a TH1 response. Objective: This study was carried out to analyze whether dendritic cells, the most potent antigen-presenting cells that are also known to induce antigen-specific T H1 responses, are suitable for therapy of atopic diseases by shifting the allergen-specific TH2 response toward a TH1 response. Methods: Monocyte-derived dendritic cells were used to present allergens in vitro to autologous CD4 + T cells of allergic persons. Because collagen type I activates dendritic cells and …

EAACI/GA(2)LEN/EDF/WAO guideline: definition, classification and diagnosis of urticaria.

2009

Udgivelsesdato: 2009-Oct This guideline, together with its sister guideline on the management of urticaria [Zuberbier T, Asero R, Bindslev-Jensen C, Canonica GW, Church MK, Giménez-Arnau AM et al. EAACI/GA(2)LEN/EDF/WAO Guideline: Management of urticaria. Allergy, 2009; 64:1427-1443] is the result of a consensus reached during a panel discussion at the 3rd International Consensus Meeting on Urticaria, Urticaria 2008, a joint initiative of the Dermatology Section of the European Academy of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (EAACI), the EU-funded network of excellence, the Global Allergy and Asthma European Network (GA(2)LEN), the European Dermatology Forum (EDF) and the World Allergy Organ…

Immediate and flapless implant insertion and provisionalization using autogenous bone grafts in the esthetic zone: 5-year results.

2017

Objectives As the 2-year results for immediately inserted and provisionalized implants have been reported, it remained an open issue, whether the initially high success rates and the esthetic outcome remain stable for longer observation periods. Therefore, this prospective study examines the 5-year hard and soft tissue changes at implants placed in the anterior maxilla. Material and methods Meanwhile, 37 microthreaded implants were placed in 21 patients into extraction sockets with and without facial bone deficiencies by a flapless approach. Facial gaps and bony defects were grafted with autogenous bone chips. The implants were immediately provisionalized. The primary outcome parameters wer…

Immediate post-extraction implants placed in acute periapical infected sites with immediate prosthetic provisionalization : a 1-year prospective coho…

2020

Background Few studies have reported the outcomes of immediate placement at infected post-extraction sites. The aim of this study was to compare clinical and radiological outcomes of immediately placed implants with immediate prosthetic provisionalization in sockets with or without acute periapical pathology. Material and Methods A total of 100 patients with immediately placed implants with immediate provisionalization and 1- year of follow up were included (50 patients with acute periapical pathology and a control group of 50 patients without acute periapical pathology). Clinical parameters (bleeding on probing, buccal keratinized mucosa width, clinical recession, and probing depth) and ra…

Immediate loading with fixed full-arch prostheses in the maxilla: review of the literature

2014

Objectives: To critically review the evidence-based literature on immediate loading of implants with fixed full- arch prostheses in the maxilla to determine 1) currently recommended performance criteria and 2) the outcomes that can be expected with this procedure. Study Desing: Studies from 2001 to 2011 on immediate loading with fixed full-arch maxillary prostheses were reviewed. Clinical series with at least 5 patients and 12 months of follow-up were included. Case reports, studies with missing data and repeatedly published studies were excluded. In each study the following was assessed: type of study, implant type, number of patients, number of implants, number of implants per patient, us…

Volumetric variation of peri-implant soft tissues in convergent collar implants and crowns using the biologically oriented preparation technique (BOP…

2018

Background To evaluate the changes in the peri-implant soft tissues of convergent collar implants with biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT) crowns, 10 months after loading. Material and Methods A pilot study was carried out from January 2016 to October 2017 involving 14 patients with one or two implants in the posterior mandibular sector. A total of 32 convergent collar implants were placed using a non-submerged protocol. Three months later the provisional cemented crowns were fitted using the BOPT approach with the finish line 1-1.5 mm below the gingival margin, simulating coronal emergence of a natural tooth. The soft tissue changes were measured with an intraoral scanner at…

LO STUDIO ANALIZZA IL PRINCIPIO DI ORALITA'' NEL PROCESSO PENALE, ALLA LUCE DELLA COSTITUZIONALIZZAZIONE DEL PRINCIPIO DEL CONTRADDITTORIO. SI SCANDAGLIANO TUTTI I PRINCIPALI MECCANISMI DI FORMAZIONE DELLA PROVA PER VERIFICARE SE L''ABBANDONO DELL''ORALITA'' POSSA APPARIRE GIUSTIFICABILE OVVERO NO RISPETTO AL PRINCIPIO DI IMMEDIATEZZA CHE, SEBBENE NON CODIFICATO, E' CRISTALLIZZATO COME CANONE SOGGETTIVO, TONIFICATO DA NULLITA' ASSOLUTA PER LA RELATIVA VIOLAZIONE.
