Related to Oral Care and Oral Health Education of Implant Patients by Hee Ja Na* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) This study investigated oral management of implant patients through implant management education and attempted to analyze and investigate postoperative discomfort, oral disease, and oral care products of implant patients. From October to November 2021, a questionnaire survey was conducted on 97 patients undergoing management after implantation at Y Dental Clinic and I Dental Clinic in Gwangju Metropolitan City. After visiting the dentist in person, explaining the purpose of the study and how to fill out the questionnaire, it was self-filled and collected. SPSS 18.0 program was used for the collected data. The oral care level questionnaire was modified and used. In general, 6 questions were descriptive statistics and frequency analysis of age, gender, chronic disease, scaling, smoking, and drinking, and 8 questions were dental care, oral health educatio

Vaccine Exemptions and Vaccination Coverage in the United States: OAJBS Publishers

Vaccine Exemptions and Vaccination Coverage in the United States by Agnitra Roy Choudhury* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) The US has been experiencing a steady decline in vaccination coverage in recent decades. Declining vaccination coverage not only risks individual health but also public health by lowering herd immunity. Reasons from anti-vax sentiments to lack of proper access to vaccines might be responsible for this decline. We study one potential mechanism that might explain variations in vaccine coverage in the US: vaccine exemptions laws. Utilizing state variations in vaccine exemption laws, we study the association between different types of exemptions on vaccination coverage. We also use Indiana’s change in their vaccine exemption law as a natural experiment to detect any causal relationship. Using data from National Immunization Survey, we do not find a strong statistical relationship between vaccination exemption laws and vaccination coverage. While th

An Old Researcher Challenges the Empirical Timing of Cy-Treatment in the Clinical Haplo-Identical Bone Marrow Transplantation Followed by High-Dose Cyclophosphamide by Hisanori Mayumi* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) An Old Researcher Challenges the Empirical Timing of Cy-Treatment in the Clinical Haplo-Identical Bone Marrow Transplantation Followed by High-Dose Cyclophosphamide by Hisanori Mayumi* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) In this article, I would like to propose the correction of the empirical and inappropriate timing for cyclophosphamide (Cy) administration among the widely spread clinical haplo-identical bone marrow transplantation followed by high-dose Cy (haploBMT/ PTCy). Haploidentical bone marrow transplantation (BMT) with high-dose post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is now becoming a safe, effective and inexpensive treatment for patients with hematologic malignancies or hemoglobinopathies and for the tolerance induc

Small Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Larynx: Case Report and Literature Review: OAJBS Publishers

Small Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Larynx: Case Report and Literature Review by Zenab Alami* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) Small cell neuroendocrine carcinomas are a rare entity of laryngeal cancers, they represent 1% of all invasive laryngeal cancers. These are rare tumors with a poor prognosis. Treatment options are often extrapolated from small cell lung cancer and limited retrospective studies. The preferred treatment is a multimodal approach combining radiotherapy and systemic treatment. We report the case of a patient treated for a small laryngeal cell neuroendocrine carcinoma at the radiotherapy department of the Hassan II University Hospital Center in FES. https://biomedscis.com/fulltext/small-cell-neuroendocrine-carcinoma-of-the-larynx-case-report-and-literature-review.ID.000353.php To Know More About Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science Please Visit: Biomedscis Are Click on:   https://Biomedscis.Com/

Special Deeds for Special Needs: Humans First, Needs Second: OAJBS Publishers

Special Deeds for Special Needs: Humans First, Needs Second by Eric Shapira* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) For many years, most practitioners considered patients with specific types of “handicaps,” persons with “Special Needs.” Those individuals who suffered from various types of congenital and developmental issues were lumped into this category. Approximately 17% of children today have a developmental disability ranging from mild disabilities such as speech and language impairments to serious developmental disabilities, such as intellectual disabilities, cerebral palsy, and autism. Over 6 million individuals in the United States have developmental disabilities. 10% of the world population are disabled. This accounts for approximately 650 million people with disabilities (https: www. cdc.gov/ncbddd/developmental disabilities). I can remember back as a dental student my fear of working with this genre of patient, which stemmed from my lack of knowledge about the
