IMMERSION OF DEBRIDED DIABETIC FOOT ULCER (DFU) TISSUE IN ELECTROCHEMICALLY GENERATED PH NEUTRAL HYPOCHLOROUS ACID SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES THE MICROBIAL BIOBURDEN: WHOLE-GENOME SEQUENCING OF Staphylococcus aureus, THE MOST PREVALENT SPECIES RECOVERED
(2023)Background: Diabetic foot ulcer infections (DFUIs) are the leading cause of lower limb amputations, mediated predominantly by Staphylococcus aureus. pH neutral electrochemically-generated hypochlorous acid (anolyte) is a ... -
The role of the Mediator complex in fungal pathogenesis and response to antifungal agents.
(2023)Mediator is a complex of polypeptides that plays a central role in the recruitment of RNA polymerase II to promoters and subsequent transcriptional activation in eukaryotic organisms. Studies have now shown that Mediator ... -
AN EMERGING PANTON-VALENTINE (PVL)-POSITIVE CC5-METICILLIN-RESISTANT Staphylococcus aureus-IVc CLONE RECEOVERED FROM HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY SETTINGS OVER A 17-YEAR PERIOD FROM 12 COUNTRIES INVESTIGATED BY WHOLE-GENOME SEQUENCING
(2023)Background A novel Panton–Valentine leukocidin (PVL)-positive meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clonal complex (CC)5-MRSA-IVc (‘Sri Lankan’ clone) was recently described from Sri Lanka. Similar isolates ... -
EFFECTIVE CLEANING AND DECONTAMINATION OF THE INTERNAL AIR AND WATER CHANNELS, HEADS AND HEAD-GEARS OF MULTIPLE CONTRA ANGLE DENTAL HANDPIECES USING AN ENZYMATIC DETERGENT AND AUTOMATED WASHER DISINFECTION IN A DENTAL HOSPITAL SETTING
(2022)Background Dental handpieces (DHPs) are reusable invasive medical devices that must be cleaned, decontaminated, lubricated and steam sterilized after use. DHPs have a complex internal design including narrow channels, ... -
Meticillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus transmission among healthcare workers, patients and the environment in a large acute hospital under non-outbreak conditions investigated using whole-genome sequencing
(2022)Background: The role of meticillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) colonization of healthcare workers (HCWs), patients and the hospital environment in MSSA transmission events (TEs) is poorly understood. Aims: ... -
Atraumatic restorative treatment compared to the Hall Technique for occluso-proximal carious lesions in primary molars; 36-month follow-up of a randomised control trial in a school setting
(2020)Background: Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) and the Hall Technique (HT) are both minimally invasive, non-aerosol generating procedures (non-AGPs). They seem to have never been directly compared, nor has the HT been ... -

Prevalence of hypomineralised second primary molars (HSPM): A systematic review and meta-analysis.
(2022)Aim: To evaluate the prevalence of HSPM worldwide on a child and a tooth level and investigate the influence of diagnostic criteria on the prevalence of HSPM. Design: A comprehensive literature search was performed through ... -
METICILLIN-RSISTANT Staphylococcus aureus TRANSMISSION AMONG HEALTHCARE WORKERS, PATIENTS AND THE ENVIRONMENT IN A LARGE ACUTE HOSPITAL UNDER NON-OUTBREAK CONDITIONS INVESTIGATED BY WHOLE-GENOME SEQUENCING
(2021)Background: The role of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization of healthcare workers (HCWs), patients and the hospital environment in MRSA transmission in non-outbreak settings is poorly understood. Aims: ... -
MULTIPLE DISTINCT OUTBREAKS OF PANTON-VALENTINE LEUKOCIDIN (PVL)-POSITIVE COMMUNITY-ASSOCIATED METHICILLIN-RESISTANT Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) IN IRELAND INVESTIGATED BY WHOLE-GENOME SEQUENCING
(2021)Background: Panton–Valentine leucocidin (PVL)-positive community-associated meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) is increasingly associated with infection outbreaks. Aim: To investigate multiple suspected ... -
A HOSPITAL OUTBREAK OF LINEZOLID-RESISTANT AND VANCOMYCIN-RESISTANT Enterococcus faecium HARBOURING AN optrA-ENCODING CONJUGATIVE PLASMID INVESTIGATED BY WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCING
(2020)Background: Linezolid is an antibiotic used to treat infections caused by multi-drug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria. Linezolid resistance in enterococci has been reported with increasing frequency, with a recent rise in ... -
Behavioral analysis of Brazilian children participating in the “Baby’s Little Mouth Program” at Gurupi-Tocantins
(2017)The behavioral response of the child has been studied in some researches and is useful to predict how the child reacts to dental treatment, especially infants and young children, which is one of the greatest challenges of ... -
Glass carbomer and compomer for ART restorations: 3-year results of a randomized clinical trial
