OBJECTIVE
Halitosis is composed by hundreds of toxic gases. It is still not clear whether halitosis gases self-inhaled by halitosis patients cause side effects. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of H2S inhalation at a low concentration (human equivalent dose of pathologic halitosis)
OBJECTIVE
Oral malodor is mainly attributed to volatile sulphur compounds (VSCs) such as hydrogen sulphide (H(2)S), methyl mercaptan and dimethyl sulphide. VSC accelerate periodontal soft tissue destruction. However, there is little information about the potential role of H(2)S in alveolar bone
In the western countries, the acute necrotizing gingivitis occurs mainly in early adulthood. It is characterized by a marginal necrosis of the gingiva. The papillae appear to be punched out. The gingiva is painful and bleeds, and the patient often presents halitosis. This fusospirochetal infection
Foreign body (FB) in the aerodigestive tracts has been commonly reported but findings of impacted foreign bodies in the nasopharynx following inhalation/ingestion are very rare. Most of the FB gets lodged as a result of forceful vomiting, coughing,and digital manoeuvres for removal of FB in the
Three ponies continuously grazed a pasture containing an estimated 24% Indigofera spicata (wet weight basis) for 4-6 weeks in April and May 2004. They developed ataxia, paresis, depression, muscle fasciculations, dysphagia, ptyalism and halitosis. Two also developed corneal opacity. One pony
The aim of this paper was to provide an update on necrotizing periodontal disease (NPD). Original papers on this subject published in English from January 2002 until December 2007 were located in MEDLINE/PubMed database. Other sources were taken from the references of the selected papers. The
BACKGROUND
Air sacculitis is an important clinical condition in non-human primates.
METHODS
We evaluated 37 baboons and seven chimpanzees with spontaneous air sacculitis submitted to pathology over a 20-year period.
RESULTS
Air sacculitis was observed almost exclusively in males. Common reported
Necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis (NUG) is a typical form of periodontal diseases. It has an acute clinical presentation with the distinctive characteristics of rapid onset of interdental gingival necrosis, gingival pain, bleeding, and halitosis. Systemic symptoms such as lymphadenopathy and malaise
METHODS
Two crossbred, castrated male goats, a 5-month-old and an 8-month-old, were observed ingesting Vestia foetida (Solanaceae). Later, the goats were seen standing splay-legged and apparently disoriented.
RESULTS
When examined, both goats were in sternal recumbency and had mydriasis; the younger
OBJECTIVE
Nelumbo leaves have been used in traditional medicine to treat bleeding, gastritis, hemorrhoids, and halitosis. However, their mechanisms have not been elucidated.
METHODS
The present study prepared two Nelumbo leaf extracts (NLEs) using water or 50% ethanol. Inflammatory response was
OBJECTIVE
Surgical techniques for esophageal replacement (ER) in children include colon interposition, gastric tube, gastric transposition, and jejunal interposition. This review evaluates the merits and demerits of each.
METHODS
Surgical techniques, complications, and outcome of ER are reviewed
OBJECTIVE
Volatile sulfur compounds are the main cause of halitosis. Hydrogen sulfide is one of these volatile sulfur compounds and the principal malodorous compound in physiological halitosis. Periodontally pathogenic activities of hydrogen sulfide have been previously reported. Hydrogen sulfide
