Published 2000Staff ViewISSN: 1600-051XSource: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: To investigate whether the choice of calcium channel blocker, used in conjunction with cyclosporin A, affected the prevalence of gingival overgrowth.Method: A cohort of 135 renal transplant recipients who had been medicated with cyclosporin A in combination with either nifedipine (89) or amlodipine (46) since transplant, took part in the study. The inclusion criteria were that eligible subjects had been in receipt of a kidney transplant for at least 12 months, had at least 10 teeth and had not received specialist periodontal treatment. The age, gender, current drug regimen and dosage were recorded for each participant and alginate impressions taken of both arches. The presence and severity of gingival overgrowth were scored from plaster models.Results: A higher proportion (72%) of the amlodipine group were categorised as having gingival overgrowth compared with only 53% of the nifedipine group, χ2=4.5, p〈0.05. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between the presence or absence of gingival overgrowth (dependent variable) and age, gender, time since transplant, dose of cyclosporin A, centre in which the patient was treated, and the calcium channel blocker used (independent variables). Independent predictors of gingival overgrowth in this multivariate analysis were whether the individual was treated with amlodipine or nifedipine (p=0.01) and whether the individual was young or old (p=0.01). Within the multivariate analysis, the odds ratio for amlodipine to be associated with gingival overgrowth compared with nifedipine was 3.0 (confidence interval 1.3–6.9).Conclusions: The prevalence of gingival overgrowth in renal transplant recipients maintained on cyclosporin A and nifedipine is lower than those treated with cyclosporin A and amlodipine.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2000Staff ViewISSN: 1600-051XSource: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: Background: Unsightly gingival overgrowth affects many individuals immunosuppressed with cyclosporin A (CsA). Current management involves repeated periodontal surgery and intensive hygienist support. Tacrolimus is an effective alternative immunosuppressive agent for renal transplantation which does not appear to produce gingival enlargement.〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉Aims:The purpose of the present study was to monitor the gingival response of 4 renal transplant patients (RTPs), with clinically significant CsA-induced gingival overgrowth, after their immunosuppressive therapy was switched to tacrolimus.Methods: Intra-oral photographs and alginate impressions were taken both prior to the drug conversion and again, 6 to 9 months later. Gingival overgrowth scores were determined, from plaster models on both these occasions.Results: All of the RTPs experienced significant resolution of their gingival enlargement within the time period studied; however, only one had complete regression.Conclusion: It is concluded that conversion of RTPs with gingival overgrowth from CsA to tacrolimus may provide an effective management strategy for this clinical problem.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1434-6052Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: PhysicsNotes: Abstract Cross Sections for the production of charm and bottom in neutrino (antineutrino) reactions are calculated in asymptotically free Quantum Chromodynamics. Total and differential cross sections are given for Cabibbo suppressed valence and Cabibbo favoured strange quark ocean production. The next order Quantum Chromodynamic correction to the charm production cross section is calculated. Arguments and estimates for the distribution of final state charmed hadrons are considered.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
