Case ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsLong COVID-19 Symptoms Remedied by Anti-Viral Treatment in Neurosurgical PatientsRobert Michael BeattyThe pandemic of COVID-19 is the largest in this century. Aside from the acute infection, some of the patients have been challenged with a complication that is known as long COVID-19. The symptoms of long COVID-19 are extensive and diverse. Long COVID-19 continues to plague many patients post-COVID-19 infection. No universal treatment has been found. This study presents four patients … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 19 Aug 2023 · 18,607 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractHistopathology of Microbially Induced Corrosion and Cluster Failure of Moderately Rough Surface Oral Implants in a Resident Bone MicrobiotaStephen Nelson, Helen Hu et al.This case report presents as a maxillary "cluster-failure", where six moderately rough-surface oral implants (1-2 microns) were installed to support a full-arch hybrid bridge. Understanding cluster failures requires the acknowledgment of biofilm science that recognizes the persistence of bacterial infection in bone following extraction and the need to bioremediate the bone-bed, by surgical debridement, before implant installation. The patient, a … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2024 · 8,482 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWound Healing Activity of Chlorogenic Acid in Diabetic Rats is Mediated Through Antibacterial, Antioxidant, and Proliferative EffectsAbdullah Abdulrahman Al-Ghanayem, Mohammed Sanad Alhussaini, AbdulRahman Abdulla Ibrahim Alyahya et al.Chlorogenic acid is known to have antibacterial action against a number of pathogens. This study provides insights into the potentiality of chlorogenic acid in the treatment of chronic infection in wounds. The anti-infective and healing effect of chlorogenic acid in infected wounds was evaluated using diabetic rats. Antibacterial activity of chlorogenic acid against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) and Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 21 Jan 2024 · 6,154 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractBacterial Biofilm Persistence in Human Jawbone Following Tooth Extraction: Implications of Surgical Debridement and Resident Population-Shift for Oral ImplantsStephen Nelson, Honghua Hu et al.Intra-radicular infection theory assumes that when an infected tooth is extracted, the main source of infection is removed and any residual contaminating bacteria are killed by the immune response, then normal healing ensues. This study investigated whether bacteria and bacterial biofilms persisted in deep bone space following tooth extraction. The study was conducted on two adult male patients seeking dental … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 31 May 2023 · 6,861 accessesView PDFCite
