Periodontitis and the incidence of metabolic syndrome: An 8-year longitudinal study of an adult Japanese cohort
CONCLUSIONS: Individuals with periodontitis had a significantly higher risk of MetS onset, possibly due to the influence of periodontitis on abdominal obesity and hyperglycaemia.PMID:37743671 | DOI:10.1111/jcpe.13881 (Source: Journal of Clinical Periodontology)

Highly sensitive electrochemical detection of cholesterol based on Au-Pt NPs/PAMAM-ZIF-67 nanomaterials
Anal Sci. 2023 Sep 25. doi: 10.1007/s44211-023-00427-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA cholesterol biosensor was constructed by bimetallic (Au and Pt) and poly(amidoamine)-zeolite imidazole framework (PAMAM-ZIF-67). First, PAMAM-ZIF-67 nanomaterial was immobilized onto the electrode, and then Au and Pt were modified on the electrode by the electro-deposition method. Subsequently, cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) and cholesterol esterase (ChEt) were fixed on the electrode. The stepwise modification procedures were recorded by impedance spectroscopy and voltammetry. The current response presented a linear relation to the logarith...

Pre-exposure prophylaxis with tixagevimab/cilgavimab for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) during the Omicron BA.5 wave at a single institution in Japan
Int J Hematol. 2023 Sep 25. doi: 10.1007/s12185-023-03663-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPre-exposure prophylaxis with tixagevimab/cilgavimab was considered a useful strategy to protect immunocompromised patients from COVID-19 based on the phase 3 PROVENT trial conducted between November 2020 and March 2021. However, after late 2021, the dominant substrains of COVID-19 changed to Omicron substrains, which showed resistance to tixagevimab/cilgavimab. Therefore, it is important to re-evaluate the real-world efficacy of tixagevimab/cilgavimab for the prevention of COVID-19 in the Omicron era. To this end, we retrospectively...

Prehospital advanced airway management and ventilation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with prehospital return of spontaneous circulation: a prospective observational cohort study in Japan
ConclusionThe study showed that in OHCA patients with prehospital ROSC, the PaCO2 levels in the initial ABG were lower in the group with AAM by ETI than in the SGA group. Furthermore, patients with prehospital ROSC and PaCO2 ≤45 mmHg on arrival had an increased odds of favorable neurological outcome after stabilized IPW adjustment.PMID:37748189 | DOI:10.1080/10903127.2023.2260479 (Source: Prehospital Emergency Care)
