Twitter for microblogging in oral health care, research, and academics: Road map and future directions
This article explores the role of this short, effective messaging platform in oral health care, teaching, research and learning. The concepts of “tweeting the meeting” and aggregation of conversations via “hashtags” is advocated for academic conferences, which will extend the conference reach to give the users better access to the instructors and enhance the related outcomes. Tweeting and retweeting the required research content may increase the academic footprint of the conducted research and researchers. In addition, it has served an immense role in the current COVID-19...

Efficacy of herbal alternatives in maintaining oral health in cancer patients: A systematic review
Nadeem Jeddy, Nirmal Famila Bettie, R Saravanan, LJ Sai Lakshmi, T RadhikaJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2021 25(3):503-508 Herbal rinses possess different medicinal properties. Numerous studies have reported the usefulness of various herbal oral rinses. Few studies claimed that herbal rinses are superior to synthetic mouth rinses for certain purposes, but there appears to be a lack of sound scientific evidence to prove the efficacy of herbal rinses in controlling oral plaque in cancer patients. This review analyses the various clinical studies on herbal rinses and aims to find the safety and efficacy of red ...

Immunohistochemical evaluation of myofibroblasts in oral epithelial dysplasia and oral squamous cell carcinoma
Conclusion: The presence of myofibroblasts in the stroma of OSCC and their absence in normal oral mucosa and epithelial dysplasia reveals that these cells may play a role in cancer cell invasion and progression so the treatment strategies targeting the myofibroblasts and their by products may be beneficial in OSCC patients.

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma: A retrospective clinicopathologic study of 25 cases
Conclusion: Comparing the present data with previous studies on MEC, one may infer that some demographic characteristics and the predominance vary in different geographic regions. Analysis of the distribution and particular features of MEC in a specific population helps in establishment of appropriate treatment. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Questionnaire-based survey regarding the opinion of general pathologists on the need for oral pathology services
Conclusion: Although the utilization of OMFP specialists' services in the state is quite low, general pathologists strongly feel the need for OMFP training as head and neck specimens form a considerable proportion of biopsies received by them. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

A study on oral mucosal changes among tobacco users
Conclusion: OSCC, OSMF and chewer's mucositis were seen more among A and C Group individuals. Smoker's palate was more in Group B. All the lesions showed a strong correlation with increased usage of tobacco. Lesions were more among males compared to females as there were no females with smoking habits in the study. A future study with larger sample size and equal gender distribution in different population among various locations is to be carried out to get accurate details about the lesions associated with tobacco habits and to correlate between the types, frequency and duration of the habit with the...

Tooth decalcification using different decalcifying agents & #8211; A comparative study
Conclusion: Five percent trichloroacetic acid was showing the most efficient result as it balances both tissue integrity and time factor suggesting that it can be used as a stable decalcifying agent for routine histopathological diagnosis. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Saliva as an alternative non-invasive biomarker for the estimation of uric acid levels during pregnancy: A longitudinal study
Conclusion: Salivary estimation, being a noninvasive procedure, is easily accepted by the patients and carries minimal risk of exposure to the blood-borne pathogens compared to serum estimation. Our findings warrant the use of saliva instead of blood for UA estimation. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Analysis of antimicrobial activity of Karnataka propolis against oral pathogens & #8211; An in vitro study
Conclusion: Propolis procured from different locations of Karnataka can be used as an antimicrobial agent with varying concentrations. However, when propolis is procured for therapeutic purpose, then it needs to be tested for its chemical composition before being utilized. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Salivary alpha-amylase & #8211;biomarker for monitoring type II diabetes
Conclusion: Our study confirms the considerable increase in salivary amylase levels in diabetes patients as compared to healthy individuals. Studies with a larger sample size comprising prediabetics, type I diabetics and type II diabetics in all age groups are required to validate these results. Further, if our results are established, salivary amylase can be used as biomarker for the diagnosis of diabetes and also monitoring it. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

The role of salivary lactate levels in assessing the severity of septic shock
Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first study to compare lactic acid levels in serum and saliva in cases of sepsis. The increase in serum lactate in patients with sepsis is evident when compared to increase in salivary lactate, so serum lactate level would be easier for physicians to differentiate septic patients from non-septic patients. Salivary lactate may not serve as better indicator in septic shock patients. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)
