Abstract

Congenital Heart Diseases (CHD) are classified as Acyanotic or Cyanotic CHD. Prevalence of CHDaccording to various studies is 8-10 per 1000 live births worldwide, 10% of cases became infant mortalityin developing countries. This research aims to study the characteristics and clinical presentations in childrenwith acyanotic CHD in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital. A retrospective observational study from children withacyanotic type of CHD from medical record outpatient clinic in the Division of Neonatology and PediatricWard at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital from June to December 2016. Age, sex, heart defect, comorbid andnutritional status were taken from the medical record. The most dominant clinical profile was female witha mean age of 4 years. Atrial Septal Defect was the most common type of left-to-right shunt, followed byVentricular Septal Defect, and Patent Ductus Arteriosus. Pulmonary Stenosis was the most common typeof obstructive lesion, followed by Aortic Stenosis. Complications of acyanotic CHD were dominated byrecurrent respiratory tract infections followed by growth and developmental disorder, and heart failure. Themost common nutritional status was moderate malnutrition.

Abstract

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are drugs to reduce pain or swelling. The use of these drugsin high doses or long-term can cause side effects or hypersensitivity problems, also known as Adverse DrugReaction (ADR). A literature review was carried out using the PubMed database by inserting the keywords‘NSAID’, ‘adverse drug reaction’, and ‘hypersensitivity’. All studies related to NSAIDs and their adversedrug reactions were included in this review, while genetic or pharmacogenomics studies and NSAIDs’effectiveness were excluded. The results showed that gastrointestinal (GI) problems such as duodenal ulcersor erosive gastritis are the most common diclofenac effects (2.05%). Cardiovascular issues, such as acutemyocardial infarction, were mostly caused by rofecoxib (2.12%). Hypersensitivity, both respiratory andskin, is commonly caused by ibuprofen with prevalence 50% and 67%, respectively. The most frequentkidney problem related to NSAIDs use is acute kidney injury. In comparison, the common hypersensitivityproblems are asthma, urticaria, and angioedema. Adverse drug reactions can be prevented or treated bylowering the dose, reducing the duration of treatment, adding companion drugs, or changing the type ofNSAID. In conclusion, it can be seen that ibuprofen severely caused kidney problems and hypersensitivity.On the other hand, diclofenac caused digestive issues, and rofecoxib caused cardiovascular problems.

Abstract

Mesenchymal stem cells are isolated from multiple tissues, such as bone marrow, peripheral blood,umbilical cord blood, adult connective tissue, dental tissues, placenta, and amniotic membrane. Oralderived mesenchymal stem cells (OMSC’s) are multipotent cells, though differentiates into odontoblast,cementoblast, osteoblast, chondrocyte, adipocyte, melanocyte, endothelial cell hepatocyte, myoblast andneural cell but shows limited differentiating into only these specific types of cells or mesenchymal origincells. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC’s) are the potential stem cells induced through reprogrammingsuch somatic cells genetically by presenting with distinct or causative factors. Growth factors and signallingmolecules have the capacity to induce cellular proliferation and cellular differentiation. Addition oftranscription factors to a population of differentiated cells does not promise reprogramming of the potentialstem cells. Furthermore, ethical issues related with the development of embryonic stem cells (ESC’s) do notapply to iPSCs, which offer a non-controversial strategy to create patient-specific stem cell lines. Hence thepresent review article was aimed to briefly describe numerous oral mesenchymal stem cells (OMSC’s) androle of Induced potential pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in the regenerative medicine and dentistry with afocus on various iPSCs reprogramming techniques in the current scenario.
