Abstract
Abstract
Background
Hemodialysis and infective endocarditis are both associated with poor patient outcome. However, despite high mortality rates for each disease entity, little attention is given to patients on hemodialysis who develop infective endocarditis.
Purpose
To examine patient characteristics, microbiological etiology, cardiac surgery, and outcome among patients on hemodialysis with infective endocarditis compared with patients with infective endocarditis without hemodialysis treatment.
Methods
With Danish nationwide registries, we identified patients with infective endocarditis between 2010–2018 and linked them to microbiological data from a nationwide microbiological registry with complete blood culture data. We included patients in the hemodialysis group if they received hemodialysis treatment within 6 months prior to their first-time infective endocarditis admission. Patients not meeting this criteria were put in the non-hemodialysis group. We used Kaplan-Meier estimates for difference in mortality and Cox regression for adjusted analysis.
Results
We included 4,106 patients with infective endocarditis of which 265 (6.5%) patients were also in hemodialysis treatment (66.8% men). Patients on hemodialysis were younger (median age 66 years [IQR=54.2–74.9] vs. 72.3 years [IQR=62.3–80.4]) and had a higher burden of comorbidities including hypertension (68.7 vs. 56.9%), diabetes (47.2% vs. 18.8%), and ischemic heart disease (41.1% vs. 32.2%) compared to patients without hemodialysis treatment, all p-values <0.01. Cardiac surgery was less frequently performed in patients in the hemodialysis group than in the non-hemodialysis group (11.9% vs. 19.4%, respectively, p<0.001) and Staphylococcus aureus was more frequently the microbiological etiology of infective endocarditis in the hemodialysis group than in the non-hemodialysis group (57.0% vs. 25.3%, respectively, p<0.0001). No statistically significant difference for in-hospital mortality was found. Figure 1 shows difference in mortality between the two groups. 1- and 5-year mortality were significantly higher in the hemodialysis group than in the non-hemodialysis group (34.3% vs. 17.2% and 50.5% vs. 33.9%, respectively, p<0.00001) and in adjusted analysis hemodialysis was associated with higher 1- and 5-year mortality (hazard ratio of 2.41, 95% CI 1.85–3.13 and 2.50, 95% CI 2.05–3.05, respectively), as compared with patients in the non-hemodialysis group.
Conclusion
Patients on hemodialysis with infective endocarditis are younger, sicker and have Staphylococcus aureus as causing agent more than twice as often as patients with infective endocarditis without hemodialysis treatment. This patient group have a higher mortality and by 5 years, 75% of patients in our hemodialysis group were dead.

Abstract
AIMS We aimed to reclassify a population-based cohort of 529 adult glioma patients to evaluate the prognostic impact of the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) central nervous system tumour classification. Moreover, we evaluated the feasibility of gene panel next-generation sequencing (NGS) in daily diagnostics of 225 prospective glioma patients. METHODS The retrospective cohort was reclassified according to WHO 2016 criteria by immunohistochemistry for IDH-R132H, fluorescence in situ hybridization for 1p/19q-codeletion and gene panel NGS. All tumours of the prospective cohort were subjected to NGS analysis up-front. RESULTS The entire population-based cohort was successfully reclassified according to WHO 2016 criteria. NGS results were obtained for 98% of the prospective patients. Survival analyses in the population-based cohort confirmed three major prognostic subgroups, that is, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant and 1p/19q-codeleted oligodendrogliomas, IDH-mutant astrocytomas and IDH-wildtype glioblastomas. The distinction between WHO grade II and III was prognostic in patients with IDH-mutant astrocytoma. The survival of patients with IDH-wildtype diffuse astrocytomas carrying TERT promoter mutation and/or EGFR amplification overlapped with the poor survival of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma patients. CONCLUSIONS Gene panel NGS proved feasible in daily diagnostics. In addition, our study confirms the prognostic role of glioma classification according to WHO 2016 in a large population-based cohort. Molecular features of glioblastoma in IDH-wildtype diffuse glioma were linked to poor survival corresponding to IDH-wildtype glioblastoma patients. The distinction between WHO grade II and III retained prognostic significance in patients with IDH-mutant diffuse astrocytic gliomas.

Abstract
AIMS Methylation profiling (MP) is increasingly incorporated in the diagnostic process of central nervous system (CNS) tumours at our centres in The Netherlands and Scandinavia. We aimed to identify the benefits and challenges of MP as a support tool for CNS tumour diagnostics. METHODS About 502 CNS tumour samples were analysed using (850 k) MP. Profiles were matched with the DKFZ/Heidelberg CNS Tumour Classifier. For each case, the final pathological diagnosis was compared to the diagnosis before MP. RESULTS In 54.4% (273/502) of all analysed cases, the suggested methylation class (calibrated score ≥0.9) corresponded with the initial pathological diagnosis. The diagnosis of 24.5% of these cases (67/273) was more refined after incorporation of the MP result. In 9.8% of cases (49/502), the MP result led to a new diagnosis, resulting in an altered WHO grade in 71.4% of these cases (35/49). In 1% of cases (5/502), the suggested class based on MP was initially disregarded/interpreted as misleading, but in retrospect, the MP result predicted the right diagnosis for three of these cases. In six cases, the suggested class was interpreted as 'discrepant but noncontributory'. The remaining 33.7% of cases (169/502) had a calibrated score <0.9, including 7.8% (39/502) for which no class indication was given at all (calibrated score <0.3). CONCLUSIONS MP is a powerful tool to confirm and fine-tune the pathological diagnosis of CNS tumours, and to avoid misdiagnoses. However, it is crucial to interpret the results in the context of clinical, radiological, histopathological and other molecular information.

Abstract
Since the update of the 4th edition of the WHO Classification of Central Nervous System (CNS) Tumors published in 2016, particular molecular characteristics are part of the definition of a subset of these neoplasms. This combined 'histo-molecular' approach allows for a much more precise diagnosis of especially diffuse gliomas and embryonal CNS tumors. This review provides an update of the most important diagnostic and prognostic markers for state-of-the-art diagnosis of primary CNS tumors. Defining molecular markers for diffuse gliomas are IDH1/IDH2 mutations, 1p/19q codeletion and mutations in histone H3 genes. Medulloblastomas, the most frequent embryonal CNS tumors, are divided into four molecularly defined groups according to the WHO 2016 Classification: wingless/integrated (WNT) signaling pathway activated, sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway activated and tumor protein p53 gene (TP53)-mutant, SHH-activated and TP53-wildtype, and non-WNT/non-SHH-activated. Molecular characteristics are also important for the diagnosis of several other CNS tumors, such as RELA fusion-positive subtype of ependymoma, atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT), embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes, and solitary fibrous tumor/hemangiopericytoma. Immunohistochemistry is a helpful alternative for further molecular characterization of several of these tumors. Additionally, genome-wide methylation profiling is a very promising new tool in CNS tumor diagnostics. Much progress has thus been made by translating the most relevant molecular knowledge into a more precise clinical diagnosis of CNS tumors. Hopefully, this will enable more specific and more effective therapeutic approaches for the patients suffering from these tumors.

Abstract
The influence of prolonged moderate (c. 60% oxygen saturation) and severe hypoxia (c. 35% oxygen saturation) on the diurnal activity pattern of sandeel Ammodytes tobianus was examined. In moderate hypoxia, the emerging and burying rates were significantly higher compared to that in normoxia, whereas fewer fish (c. 10%) were present in the water column. In contrast, severe hypoxia resulted in twice as many or more fish being present in the water column compared to that in normoxia. The increased number of swimming fish was not just a relative change due to an effect from hypoxia treatment, but the behaviour of the fish was also changed. The summed activity (emerging plus burying events) was lower in severe hypoxia compared to normoxia except during hours of dim light. All fish were buried during night-time, regardless of treatment, with the exception of some in severe hypoxia during the first couple of hours of darkness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the accuracy of digital and film panoramic radiographs for determining (1) the position and morphology of mandibular third molars before surgical removal and (2) the prevalence of dental anomalies and pathologies. METHODS Three hundred and eighty-eight third mandibular molars were available for examination. Position and morphology of third molars observed on film radiographs and on digital panoramic images from five systems (DenOptix, DigiDent, Digora, Dimax2 and Orthophos Plus) were recorded by two observers and were compared with surgeons' findings at the time of the operation (gold standard). One observer further recorded the prevalence of dental anomalies and pathologies on both imaging modalities. RESULTS Few differences were found between the digital and film-based panoramic systems in the assessment of accuracy of position and morphology of mandibular third molars. The prevalence of dental anomalies and pathologies determined with the two modalities was roughly similar. CONCLUSION The five digital panoramic systems evaluated in this study were equally as useful for third molar treatment planning and diagnosis of dental anomalies and pathologies as conventional film-based panoramic radiographs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose was to evaluate image quality of two solid-state (charge-coupled device (CCD)) and three photostimulable phosphor (PSP) plate digital panoramic systems, and to assess their utility for treatment planning before mandibular third molar removal. METHODS 433 patients were randomly allocated to five digital systems: Dimax2 and Orthophos Plus (both CCD systems) and DenOptix, DigiDent and Digora (all PSP systems). Image quality was evaluated in six regions on a 4-point scale by three independent observers. In addition, an oral surgeon evaluated image quality in the mandibular third molar region only as well as the utility of the image for treatment planning before removal of that molar. RESULTS Images from the DenOptix and DigiDent systems had a significantly lower overall quality than images from the Digora, Dimax2 and Orthophos Plus systems (P < 0.005). The oral surgeon's assessment of image utility resulted in rejection rates of 0% for Orthophos Plus, 2% for Digora, 8% for Dimax2, 12% for DigiDent and 14% for DenOptix images. The rates for the DigiDent and DenOptix images were significantly higher than those for the other systems (P < 0.001), and the rate for Dimax2 was significantly higher than that for Orthophos Plus (P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS The quality of DenOptix and DigiDent digital panoramic images was found to be inferior to the quality found in images obtained with the Digora, Dimax2 and Orthophos Plus systems. Images from the Digora and Orthophos Plus systems were regarded to be the most useful for treatment planning before mandibular third molar removal.

Abstract
Gallstone induced colonic ileus is a rare disease. An enormous gallstone was found as the cause of ileus in a previously healthy ninety year-old man. A laparotomy was carried out, and a gallstone measuring 6 x 8 cm was removed from the sigmoideum in a normal looking colon. The stone had been wedged at the ligament of Told after having formed a fistula from the gallbladder to the colon. The fistula was left untouched and the patient was discharged after making a full recovery. A year later the patient developed icterus. Ultrasound examination revealed choledocus stones, which were removed by ERCP papillotomy.

Abstract
The efficacy of a topical anesthetic on pain and unpleasantness provoked by scaling of gingival pockets was investigated in 20 patients with mild chronic periodontitis. A eutectic mixture of local anesthetics (EMLA) and a placebo cream, both occluded by Orahesive Oral Bandages, were applied in a balanced, randomized, double-blind, split-mouth design, which enabled within-subject comparison of the anesthetic and the placebo in the upper and the lower jaw. Pretreatment interviews showed that approximately two-thirds of the patients considered gingival scaling to be associated with some degree of pain and unpleasantness. Pain intensity and unpleasantness were evaluated on 100-mm visual analog scales (VAS). Application of EMLA reduced both pain intensity and unpleasantness significantly compared to placebo cream. Median reductions in VAS pain intensity in the upper and lower jaw were 58.9% and 61.9%, and corresponding reductions in VAS unpleasantness were 31.9% and 25.6%, respectively. Generally, the patients accepted the anesthetic procedure well. The residual perception of pain and unpleasantness following topical anesthesia may be dependent on activation of nonanesthetized nociceptive fibers in the tooth pulp. However, the present study clearly demonstrates the efficacy of a topical anesthetic in a clinical situation, which may be recommended as a simple pharmacologic strategy to reduce pain and unpleasantness during scaling procedures.

Abstract
A double-blind randomized crossover analgesic trial was carried out on 70 patients undergoing surgical removal of one lower third molar at each visit. The analgesic efficacy of a two-dose regimen of the combination ibuprofen-codeine, 400 to 60 mg, was compared with ibuprofen, 400 mg. Each of the two doses was taken when the patient needed pain relief and the pain intensity was measured on a visual analog scale during the 10-hour period after the first medication. Because of carryover effects between periods 1 and 2, the analysis was carried out only for period 1 according to a parallel group design. Of the 60 patients who were evaluated for analgesic effect, the mean pain reduction of dose 1 was 63% for the 29 patients given ibuprofen-codeine and 50% for the 31 patients given ibuprofen; the mean duration of effect was 7.5 and 6.3 hours, respectively. The difference in pain reduction index (pain reduction X duration of effect) between the two treatments was significant in favor of the combination, whereas the separate variables of pain reduction and duration of effect were not significantly different. The mean pain reduction was 67% after doses 1 and 2 for patients on ibuprofen-codeine and 52% for those on ibuprofen; the mean duration of effect was 9.4 and 9.2 hours, respectively. For doses 1 and 2, the difference in pain reduction index per dose between the two treatments was significant but not the difference for the separate variables, pain reduction, and duration of effect.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The efficiency of a topical anesthetic occluded with Orahesive Oral Bandage was investigated. Experimental pain was provoked by needle insertions into two palatal test areas in 20 healthy subjects. Pain, estimated on a 100-mm visual analogue scale (VAS), decreased significantly from 23.5 mm to 10.5 mm at the greater palatine foramen and from 51.5 mm to 35.0 mm at the incisive foramen after application of a eutectic mixture of local anesthetics (EMLA). No significant change in pain perception was obtained after placebo application. The EMLA cream and the Orahesive Oral Bandages were well accepted by the subjects, as only two out of 20 subjects experienced slight gagging reflexes and only three considered the taste unpleasant. No other adverse reactions were observed. Occlusion of topical anesthetics seems to be a useful technique for achieving superficial mucosal anesthesia.

Abstract
In 61 patients, bilateral lower impacted third molars were removed. In 30 patients, a fibrin sealant was placed in the alveolus on one side immediately following the operation, while the other side functioned as control. In 31 patients, penicillin was added to the fibrin sealant, and the combination was placed in the alveolus on one side, the other side being the control. No difference with regard to bleeding, pain and swelling during the first postoperative week could be found. There was no difference between the sides regarding the incidence of postoperative infection and the healing of the alveoli after a 1-month control period.

Abstract
Several self-aspirating syringes have been introduced into dentistry during the last decade. The efficacy of such a self-aspirating system, the EVERS-syringe, has been tested in relation to varying liquid pressure and diameter of the needle. It was found that the EVERS system was able to secure aspiration, irrespective of pressure and needle diameter. The passive back-flow of liquid through the needle, however, did depend on pressure and needle diameter. 3 different brands of local analgetics were evaluated, and it was found that the degree of self-aspiration was identical, regardless of brand and thereby cartridge type.

Abstract
100 patients had an impacted lower 3rd molar surgically removed in a double-blind study. Naproxen (500 mg b.i.d.) or acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) (1 g t.i.d.) were administered to the patients. Paracetamol was allowed as escape medication. 49 patients received naproxen and 51 ASA. 4 patients from each group were excluded because they took other analgesics, took too few tablets, were lost to follow-up or had misunderstood the instructions. There was a significantly better over all analgesic effect of naproxen than ASA (p = 0.004). More patients in the naproxen group than in the ASA group (p less than 0.01) would accept treatment with the same drug again. 4 patients, all from the ASA group, complained spontaneously about side effects.

Abstract
Increasing numbers of patients take more drugs of ever-increasing potency. Dentists today see many of these patients. They should therefore be aware of the connection between drug administration and emergency situations. In certain instances drug-related complications, side-effects and emergencies of both a local and a general nature can arise. Some local complications are destruction of teeth due to the intake of medicines with high sugar content; erosive lesions of the oral mucosa; paraformaldehyde necrosis; and those arising from the use of chlorhexidine. Systemic complications are anaemia due to aspirin misuse; oral ulceration due to antirheumatic drugs; adrenal insufficiency after glucocorticosteroid medication; catecholamine reactions; anticoagulation therapy and bleeding problems; epilepsy; asthma; aplastic anaemia; opportunistic infections; and allergic reactions. The dentists should be prepared to diagnose and manage these complications whether they arise during dental treatment or following it.

Abstract
Fibrin sealant is a two-component product consisting in principle of fibrinogen and thrombin. When it is activated, fibrin (the clot) is formed. Being a natural product, the versatility of its use in the human body is great. No side-effects or complications have been described. It has been tested clinically in oral surgery and found to be very effective in the fixation of mucosal and skin grafts in the oral cavity; as a surgical dressing for the palate or on the lips; in osseous reconstruction after mixture with bone-chips; and finally in the treatment of chronic sclerotizing osteomyelitis of the mandible after the addition of metronidazole. It also has uses in many other fields of surgery.

Abstract
From September 1981 to February 1982, an epidemiologic study was carried out on the incidence of pain conditions among patients between 18 and 70 yr of age in 30 dental practices in Ribe County, Denmark. A total of 35 464 patients consulted the 50 participating dentists during the study period. 823 patients consulted the dentist due to pain. The most frequent cause of pain was caries sequelae (pulpitis (35%) and acute apical periodontitis (31%)). There was a significant difference in the distribution of the diagnoses between patients with regular and non-regular dental care. Although the data in the present study may not be representative for the entire Danish population, it seems reasonable to assume that in Denmark there are at least 70 000 annual consultations to a dentist due to pain. Furthermore, a minimum of 4000 patients can be expected to be absent from work annually, due to illness caused by dental pain.

Abstract
Oxidized, regenerated cellulose (Surgicel) and gelatin sponge (Spongostan) were packed in the sockets of upper third molars after surgical removal in 10 and 11 patients, respectively. The other side in each patient functioned as control. The study revealed that more pain was apparent on the sides, where the materials were packed, especially in the gelatin sponge group, although more patients preferred this material to oxidized, regenerated cellulose. The 2 materials did not differ with regard to swelling or bleeding. No complications were encountered. Use of these materials in post-extraction sockets did not seem to impair closure of the wound as estimated by epithelial cover of the sockets, although healing was slightly delayed in the gelatin group.

Abstract
In this investigation, the subjective impressions of patients, suffering from severe xerostomia, have been recorded after symptomatic treatment with different CMC- and mucin-containing artificial saliva over 3 years. A total number of 137 patients divided into 3 groups participated. Group I (40 patients) used CMC-containing artificial saliva, group II (61 patients) alternately used CMC- and mucin-containing artificial saliva and group III (36 patients) used mucin-containing artificial saliva. From this study it is concluded that artificial saliva containing mucins proved to be of benefit to patients suffering from xerostomia.
