Abstract

This retrospective study examines the relationship between histopathologically diagnosed cases of in calcifying odontogenic cysts (COCs) on the adjacent dentition. The records including diagnostic radiograph images of 11 patients treated for COCs from 1991 to 2004 were analyzed and correlations made between radiologic and histopathologic features. Special attention was applied to the associations between COCs and adjacent teeth. Radiologic and histopathologic features of the 11 lesions were variable, with some lesions being more solid and others more cystic. Calcifications varied from small flecks to solid calcified areas of frank odontoma. In 7 cases, the COC was associated with an impacted tooth and 5 of these cases involved COC-enveloping teeth. All cases excepting one in an edentulous jaw segment showed positional changes of adjacent teeth, including impaction. The radiographical features of COCs are varied but there is a high frequency of changes in adjacent teeth, including dental impaction. The presence of impaction or displacement of teeth for COCs occurring in the posterior segments of the jaw, and absence of this finding for anteriorly placed lesions may be indicative of the timing of COC development.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
