The aim of this study is that evaluate the remineralizing and antibacterial effects of the different remineralization agents. Initiative caries lesions named as white spot lesions and these lesions are localized at enamel. Demineralization is occured but cavitations aren't seen at this stage. It is

Specific Aims 1. To investigate if cytosolic Ca2+- ( delta[Ca2+]i) and pH (delta_pHi) signaling responses and bactericidal effector functions of PMN dependent upon the status of diabetic control and are reduced or increased when compared to age and gender matched controls 2. To determine the

Recently, a remineralizing water based cream containing Hydroxyapatite, Fluoride and Xylitol (Remin pro) has been introduced. It has been claimed that hydroxyapatite fills eroded enamel, fluoride seals dentinal tubules and xylitol acts as an antibacterial agents. This product has been assumed to be

Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is the most lethal form of tuberculosis, causing death or severe neurologic deficits in more than half of those affected in spite of antituberculosis chemotherapy. Among the first line drugs, isoniazid is the only bactericidal agent that easily crossed blood-brain

Although hand hygiene remains an important intervention in reducing the incidence of nosocomial infection, poor compliance may limit its impact especially in critical care units when clinical demands on staff are high. Although focused programmes to improve compliance have been shown to produce good

Bacterial infection in preterm neonates is a significant clinical problem. Neutrophils play a critical role in the bactericidal process, which is immature in newborns though their peripheral blood neutrophil counts are similar to or higher than that of older children and adults. The use of steroids

What is the significance of this project? The significance is two fold: (1) the serious nature of the clinical condition that it addresses, and (2) in the potential ease and safety by which this approach could be translated to clinical practice. Although there have been many advances in treatment

1. Subjects will be patients with Heart Failure (HF). 2. All subjects will be consented. 3. All subjects will give permission for the investigators to review their medical records. 4. After consenting to participate, subjects will be instructed to refrain from spitting or the use of an antibacterial

Introduction. At the beginning of the 21st century, cancer is increasing in the aging population and patients often have a greater life expectancy than they did 40 years ago (Payne et al 2004). As people age, and the incidence of cancer increases, it is essential to push the frontiers of oncology

Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) is caused by mutations of 1 of the 4 proteins comprising the NADPH oxidase that result in decreased or absent production of superoxide by phagocytes, and predisposes CGD subjects to life-threatening infection. Intensive management with antibiotics and antifungal

AIM OF THE STUDY Primary endpoint will be evaluate the effectiveness of vaginal lactoferrin in the reduction of the 30% of preterm deliveries versus the use of progesterone, in specific selected patients, with consequent improvement in neonatal outcome. Secondary endpoint will be compare

Introduction OLP is a chronic and inflammatory disease that frequently involves the oral mucosa. Clinical symptoms of OLP are various from white keratotic lesions without pain to erosion and painful injury (1). OLP episodic symptoms range from pain and irritation of the mouth that can affect the

EPIDEMIOLOGY Neisseria meningitidis is a globally important cause of meningitis and septicaemia. The polysaccharide capsule is an important virulence factor in causing invasive disease. The serogroup of a meningococcal strain is determined by the biochemical composition of the polysaccharide

Dental plaque is the soft deposits that form the biofilm adhering to the tooth surface or other hard surfaces inside oral cavity, including removable and fixed restoration. The dental plaque is composed of over 500 bacterial species. The colonization of these bacteria follows a special pattern
