Effect of Aging and Carotid Atherosclerosis on Multifractality of Dental Pulp Blood Flow Oscillations
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2020)
Introduction: Age-related changes of dental pulp tissue and atherosclerosis of carotid arteries as its feeding arteries could influence the functionality of pulpal circulation. The objective of our study was to evaluate ...
Fractal analysis tools for early assessment of liver inflammation induced by chronic consumption of linseed, palm and sunflower oils
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Objective: Inflammation is a biological response of tissue to harmful stimuli. A high-fat diet was linked to low-grade chronic liver inflammation, which can further lead to more severe health conditions. It is crucial to ...

Linear and nonlinear analysis of dental pulp blood flow oscillations in ageing
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
Aim To investigate the effect of ageing on control mechanisms of pulpal microcirculation using wavelet analysis and to calculate linear and nonlinear parameters of blood flow oscillations, in a healthy general population. ...
Management of maxillofacial trauma in the elderly: A European multicenter study
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
Background/Aims Management of maxillofacial trauma in the geriatric population poses a great challenge due to anatomical variations and medical comorbidities. The aim of this study was to analyze the management variables, ...
Comparison of four different suture materials in respect to oral wound healing, microbial colonization, tissue reaction and clinical features-randomized clinical study
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2020)
Objectives Sutures are the most frequently used medical device for wound closure. They support tissue during the early phase of healing until it regains enough tensile strength. The aim of this study was to compare four ...
Association between cardiovascular diseases and apical periodontitis: an umbrella review
(Wiley, 2020)
Background: The existence of an association between cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and apical periodontitis (AP) remains unclear because results obtained from previous clinical studies and reviews are inconsistent or ...
Apolipoprotein epsilon 4 Allele and Dental Occlusion Deficiency as Risk Factors for Alzheimer's Disease
(Ios Press, Amsterdam, 2020)
Compromised dentition has been suggested to pose a significant risk factor for dementia. It was mainly investigated through insufficient tooth number, disregarding contact between opposing teeth (dental occlusion). The ...
