[PMID: 38750657 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2024.04.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral surgical treatment, such as tooth extraction, has been identified as a risk factor for the onset of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). However, MRONJ may already be latent, and its manifestation may be triggered by extraction. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine the association between pre-extraction imaging and MRONJ. STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, SAMPLE We performed a multicenter case-control analysis of patients receiving antiresorptive agents (ARAs) who underwent extraction between 2012 and 2016. We enrolled patients who had undergone tooth extraction in the setting of ARA exposure. PREDICTOR VARIABLES The predictor variables comprised preoperative radiographic findings associated with MRONJ stage 0. These findings included alveolar bone loss, thickening or obscuring of the periodontal ligament, and osteosclerosis involving the alveolar bone. They were coded as present or absent before tooth extraction. MAIN OUTCOME VARIABLE The primary outcome variable was MRONJ status coded as present or absent. COVARIATES Sex, age, underlying diseases necessitating the administration of ARA, the type of ARA used, corticosteroid use, extraction region, and wound closure were analyzed. ANALYSES Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, Fisher's exact test for univariate analysis, and multiple logistic regression analysis were performed. P values < .05 were significant. RESULTS The subjects consisted of 26 patients and 110 controls (male: 8/36, female: 18/74). The mean ages of the MRONJ group and the control group were 77.0 ± 11.9 and 63.0 ± 15.8, respectively (P value = .001). The prevalence of osteosclerosis was significantly higher in the MRONJ group than in the control group (14/72, 53.9%/29.3%, P < .01). Multivariate analysis identified osteosclerosis (odds ratio: 8.4, 95% confidence interval: 2.133.9, P < .01) as a significant independent predictor associated with the development of MRONJ after extraction. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE These findings suggest that a precursor to MRONJ is highly likely to be present in patients with osteosclerosis at the time of extraction. The majority of patients who developed MRONJ after extraction had imaging findings that suggested infection in the surrounding alveolar bone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The epidemic of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) poses a great challenge to depression. However, the prevalence of depression among ACS patients has not been fully determined. This meta-analysis aimed to provide an estimation of the global prevalence of depression among ACS patients (ACS depression). METHODS Online databases including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus were searched for all relevant studies that reported the prevalence of ACS depression through March 2023. Pooled prevalence of ACS depression with 95% confidence interval (CI) was estimated by the random-effect model. All statistical analyses were performed using comprehensive meta-analysis software. This review was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) (identifier CRD42023409338). RESULTS A total of 28 studies (17 cohort studies, 9 cross-sectional studies, and 2 case-control studies) were included. The overall pooled prevalence of depression in ACS, derived from 28 studies, was 28.5% (95% CI: 0.28-0.29, P = .000, I2 = 99%). 21 included studies showed a prevalence of 20.3% (95% CI: 0.20-0.21, P = .000, I2 = 96%) in men, and the prevalence in women was 13.6% (95% CI: 0.13-0.14, P = .000, I2 = 95%). Subgroup analysis showed the lowest prevalence in Europe (20.7%, 95% CI: 0.20-0.22, P = .000, I2 = 98%); On different diagnostic criteria, the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM-IV) (36.8%, 95% CI: 0.35-0.38, P = .000, I2 = 96%) has the highest prevalence. In terms of end year of data collection, the prevalence of ACS depression was lower for studies that ended data collection after 2012 (25.7%, 95% CI: 0.25-0.27, P = .000, I2 = 99%) than in studies before 2012 (30%, 95% CI: 0.29-0.31, P = .000, I2 = 98%). CONCLUSION SUBSECTIONS This systematic review and meta-analysis suggest high global prevalence of depression among ACS patients, underlining the necessity of more preventive interventions among ACS patients especially in Asian and North American regions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the diagnostic accuracy in detecting early non-vital bone changes between orthopantomography (OPT) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in correlation with histopathological findings before tooth extractions in patients with antiresorptive (AR) intake. SUBJECTS Patients with an indication tooth extraction who had received OPT and CBCT preoperatively while or after undergoing AR treatment were prospectively enrolled over a 24-month period in the progesterone in spontaneous miscarriage (PRISM) trial. Imaging studies were randomly analyzed by three examiners for early non-vital bone changes using specific predefined characteristics and a 5-level scale (1 definite absence of criteria to 5 definite presence of criteria). Sensitivity and specificity values were calculated in correlation with the histopathologically evaluated bone samples at the time point of tooth extraction. RESULTS One hundred thirty patients with 237 treated extraction sites met the inclusion criteria. For all images evaluated by all examiners, CBCT (430/492; 87.4%; receiver operating characteristic [ROC]: area under the curve [AUC] = 0.88; p < 0.001) was more likely to detect histopathologically confirmed non-vital bone than the OPT (132/492; 26.8%; ROC: AUC = 0.562; p = 0.115). CONCLUSIONS In the detection of non-vital bone changes, CBCT is superior to OPT in both sensitivity and specificity. Specific imaging characteristics allow for the prediction of early non-vital bone changes already at the time before tooth extractions.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess radiographic presentation of anatomical structures, bony changes and soft tissue calcifications on panoramic radiographs of oncologic patients under high dose antiresorptive drug therapy (ART) before exposure to dental extraction. METHODS Panoramic radiographs of 57 patients under ART, taken previously to tooth extraction, and 57 control patients were evaluated by two oral radiologists regarding bone pattern, anatomical structures visibility, estimation of cortical width, mandibular cortical index (MCI), and presence of soft tissue calcifications. Parameters were compared between ART and age- and gender-matched healthy control groups. Bone patterns were further assessed by regions with or without tooth extractions and according to uneventful healing or MRONJ development. All comparisons were made using chi-square test with significance level set at 5%. RESULTS Mandible and posterior maxilla presented more sclerotic bone patterns in patients under ART, regardless of tooth extraction and MRONJ development status (p < 0.05). Heterogeneous bone pattern was identified in two regions that both were subsequently affected by MRONJ. Anatomical structure visibility and presence of soft tissue calcifications was not different among groups (p > 0.05). ART patients showed significantly more C0 (thickening) and C1 MCI (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Sclerotic bone pattern and thicker mandibular cortices may represent a consequence of ART rather than MRONJ specific findings. Prospective studies on larger patient samples radiographically followed-up during the ART treatment are advised, with specific attention to heterogenous trabecular bone pattern as a possible MRONJ predictor.

Nature and Prevalence of Bacterial Taxa Persisting after Root Canal Chemomechanical Preparation in Permanent Teeth: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. J Endod 2022; 48:572-596. [PMID: 35114271 DOI: 10.1016/j.joen.2022.01.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2021] [Revised: 01/15/2022] [Accepted: 01/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Culture-independent molecular studies have shown a broad spectrum of bacterial taxa that persist after chemomechanical procedures (CMP). Therefore, this study systematically reviewed these reports to explore the prevalence of bacteria in post-instrumentation samples of root canals from permanent teeth, especially of as-yet-uncultivated/difficult-to-culture bacteria. METHODS Electronic databases were searched from 2007 to January 2021. Clinical studies using culture-independent molecular methods to identify species-level taxa before and after CMP were included. Studies were critically appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute Prevalence Critical Appraisal Checklist and the funnel plot analysis. The meta-analysis was performed on the prevalence of as-yet-uncultivated/difficult-to-culture bacterial taxa using RStudio. RESULTS A total of 3781 titles were screened, but only 20 studies were included. The most frequent species in post-instrumentation samples were Streptococcus spp., Leptotrichia buccalis, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Capnocytophaga ochracea. The detection frequency of some species increased after CMP, including mainly Firmicutes members such as streptococci, Enterococcus faecium, Selenomonas noxia, and Solobacterium moorei. The prevalence (confidence interval) of difficult-to-culture species was as follows: Dialister invisus, 17% (7%-29%); Solobacterium moorei, 14% (8%-23%); Bacteroidaceae [G-1] bacterium HMT 272, 13% (5%-23%); and Filifactor alocis, 11% (3%-23%). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of as-yet-uncultivated/difficult-to-culture bacterial taxa in post-instrumentation samples was low. The persistent species belonged mainly to the phylum Firmicutes, and streptococci were the major members. Future larger clinical studies on the composition of the whole bacterial community that persist after CMP are still necessary for a better understanding of bacterial interactions and their clinical significance in the treatment outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pressure injury imposes a significant burden for patients and healthcare systems and the majority of pressure injuries are preventable. The early identification of pressure injury is critical for its prevention. As an objective measure, biomarkers have preliminarily shown the potential to identify individuals at risk for developing pressure injury before it is visually observed to occur. However, these results have not been synthesized. OBJECTIVE To assess and synthesise the predictive effect of different biomarkers in the early detection of pressure injury formation. DESIGN A systematic review and meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL Complete and the Cochrane Library were comprehensively searched for articles up to June 2021. No restrictions were applied to study design type, language, country, race or date of publication. REVIEW METHODS Two reviewers independently extracted data from all original eligible studies using a specified data extraction form, resolved disagreements through discussion and the involvement of an additional reviewer. Methodological quality of all included studies was independently appraised by two authors with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Checklist and the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale (NOS). Heterogeneity of each study was estimated using the I2 statistic, and the data was synthesized using StataSE15. RESULTS Eight observational studies involving 10595 participants were included. The overall pooled area under curve (AUC) and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of Serum albumin (Alb) was 0.66(0.62-0.70), and the Serum haemoglobin (Hb) was 0.67(0.60-0.74). The AUC and 95% CI of C-reactive protein (CRP) was 0.62(0.50-0.74), Braden score was 0.56 (0.429-0.691), Waterlow score was 0.729(0.654-0.803), Alb with Waterlow was 0.741(0.694-0.787), and the combination of Hb, CRP, Alb, Age and Gender was 0.79(0.682-0.898). Besides, the chemokine interferon-γ-induced protein of 10kd/CXCL10, cytokine interferon-α, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-15 (IL-15) and combination of creatine kinase (CK), myoglobin (Mb), heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) and CRP may prove potential for detecting pressure injury. CONCLUSION The findings suggest the combination of Hb, CRP, Alb, Age and Gender is superior to other biomarkers. However, the predictive effect of biomarkers needs to be confirmed by more researches and patient-level data.

Abstract
Objectives It is unclear whether the extent of intraoral mucosa defects in patients with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw indicates disease severity. Therefore, this study investigated whether mucosal lesions correlate with the true extent of osseous defects in stage I patients. Materials and Methods Retrospectively, all patients with stage I medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw who underwent surgical treatment between April 2018 and April 2019 were enrolled. Preoperatively, the extent of their mucosal lesions was measured in clinical evaluations, and patients were assigned to either the visible or the probeable bone group. Intraoperatively, the extent of necrosis was measured manually and with fluorescence. Results Fifty-five patients (36 female, 19 male) with 86 lesions (46 visible bone, 40 probeable bone) were enrolled. Intraoperatively, the necrotic lesions were significantly larger (P<0.001) than the preoperative mucosal lesions in both groups. A significant (P<0.05) but very weak (R2<0.2) relationship was noted between the extent of the mucosal lesions and the necrotic bone area. Conclusion Preoperative mucosal defects (visible or probeable) in patients with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw do not indicate the extent of bone necrosis or disease severity.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to systematically review the literature on prevalence of microorganisms and their viability/activity in endodontic periapical lesions. DESIGN Literature research was performed on five electronic biomedical databases from their start dates to June 2020. Only studies evaluating the presence of microorganisms in periapical lesions in human permanent teeth with secondary/persistent infection were included. Two reviewers independently assessed the eligibility for inclusion, extracted data and evaluated the risk of bias. Meta-analysis and binominal tests were used to analyse the resulting data. RESULTS From the 1,313 records found, 23 full-texts were included for qualitative and quantitative analysis. The prevalence of microorganisms in endodontic periapical lesions was 87 % (95 % CI, 75-94) and the prevalence of viable/active microorganisms was 82 % (95 % CI, 66-91). There were statistical differences in the geographic area subgroup and between viable bacteria and active viruses. The most common detection method of microorganisms was the molecular one (69 %), and the most prevalent bacteria were the species Actinomyces, Fusobacterium and Prevotella (40 %). Most of the included studies had moderate risk of bias. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of microorganisms in endodontic periapical lesions was 87 % and the prevalence of viable/active microorganisms was 82 %.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The main aim is to identify, by means of different imaging modalities, the early bone changes in patients "at risk" and in stage 0 MRONJ. MATERIALS AND METHODS A search of the literature was performed on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases, until June 9, 2020. No language or year restrictions were applied. Screening of the articles, data collection, and qualitative analysis was done. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used for observational studies, and the Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation's (SYRCLE) risk of bias tool for the animal studies. RESULTS A total of 1188 articles were found, from which 47 were considered eligible, whereas 42 were suitable for the qualitative analysis. They correspond to 39 human studies and 8 animal studies. Radiographic findings such as bone sclerosis, osteolytic areas, thickening of lamina dura, persisting alveolar socket, periapical radiolucency, thicker mandibular cortex, widening of the periodontal ligament space, periodontal bone loss, and enhancement of the mandibular canal were identified as early bone changes due to antiresorptive therapy. All those findings were also reported later in Stage 0 patients. CONCLUSION The main limitations of these results are the lack of prospective data and comparisons groups; therefore, careful interpretation should be made. It is a fact that radiographic findings are present in antiresorptive-treated patients, but the precise timepoint of occurrence, their relation to the posology, and potential risk to develop MRONJ are not clear. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The importance of a baseline radiographic diagnosis for antiresorptive-treated patients.
