Exploring mRNA vaccines
The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)’s call to action outlined a vision for the future of undergraduate biology education which included core concepts and inquiry-based skills to engage students in understanding the natural world. The report highlighted the need to connect the classroom to the real world to promote science literacy. Immunology is a field that connects AAAS-identified core concepts to the real world, howe…
Equation for Tooth Size Prediction from Mixed Dentition Analysis for Taiwanese Population
Using a sample of Taiwanese people, new models derived for females and males separately were developed, which should provide highly accurate predictions for unerupted canines and premolars in the Taiwanese population
Oral Microbiota Changes in Elderly Patients, an Indicator of Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that usually affects older individuals. Owing to the higher incidence of root caries and missing teeth in elderly individuals, the bacteria involved in these dental concerns might potentially deteriorate their cognitive function. Altered microbiota in the oral cavity may induce neuroinflammation through migration from the oral cavity to the brain. However, the correlation between the composi…
Association between Dental Scaling and Reduced Risk of End-Stage Renal Disease
Periodontitis is prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is also associated with kidney function decline. It is unclear whether dental scaling treatment prevents the progression of CKD. In a nationwide cohort study, Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database was used to select people with CKD. Propensity score-matching procedures were performed to compare the long-term risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) between C…
Decision Tree Approach to the Impact of Parents’ Oral Health on Dental Caries Experience in Children
Decision tree (DT) analysis was applied in this cross-sectional study to investigate caries experience in children by using clinical and microbiological data obtained from parent-child pairs. Thirty pairs of parents and children were recruited from periodontal and pediatric dental clinics. All participants were clinically examined for caries and periodontitis by a calibrated examiner. Cariogenic and periodontopathic bacteria examinations were con…
Early Childhood Caries-Related Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice
The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding early childhood caries (ECC) prevention and implementation of medical setting-based caries prevention among pediatricians and dentists in Taiwan. Data were collected from currently practicing pediatricians and general and pediatric dentists using self-administered questionnaires. A total of 301 questionnaires were completed by the pediatricians ( n = 105), general…
