Types of Biopharmaceutical Studies: Controlled and Non-Controlled Approaches01:23

Types of Biopharmaceutical Studies: Controlled and Non-Controlled Approaches

Biopharmaceutical studies constitute a vital field aiming to enhance drug delivery methods and refine therapeutic approaches, drawing upon diverse interdisciplinary knowledge. In research methodologies, the choice between controlled and non-controlled studies significantly influences the study's reliability and accuracy.
Non-controlled studies, commonly employed for initial exploration, lack a control group, rendering them susceptible to biases and external influences. In contrast, controlled...
Development of the Oral Microbiota01:28

Development of the Oral Microbiota

The establishment of the oral microbiome begins before birth, challenging the long-held belief that the fetal oral cavity is sterile. The presence of oral microbes such as Streptococcus and Fusobacterium in amniotic fluid suggests that microbial exposure may occur in utero, potentially through translocation from the maternal oral or gastrointestinal tract. This early colonization primes the neonatal immune system and sets the stage for subsequent microbial succession. Maternal health,...
Teratogenicity01:07

Teratogenicity

The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...
Drug Dosing: Infants and Children01:29

Drug Dosing: Infants and Children

Pediatric patient dosages diverge from adults due to disparities in body surface area, total body water, and extracellular fluid per kilogram of body weight. The dosing regimen considers the variations in pharmacokinetics and pharmacology across distinct age groups, encompassing preterm newborns, infants, young children, older children, and adolescents. Calculation of pediatric patient doses is predicated on determining body surface area, which exhibits a superior correlation with the child's...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Dentistry
  • Oral Health
  • Child Development

Background:

  • Pacifiers (dummies) have a long history with evolving designs.
  • Their usage is rising, sparking ongoing debate.
  • Medical and dental literature highlights both risks and benefits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review existing evidence on pacifier use.
  • To analyze the pros and cons of pacifier application.
  • To provide recommendations for pacifier use, care, and cessation.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of medical and dental studies.
  • Synthesis of evidence regarding pacifier risks and benefits.
  • Development of evidence-based recommendations.

Main Results:

  • Evidence presents both advantages and disadvantages of pacifier use.
  • Specific recommendations for application, maintenance, and weaning are derived.

Conclusions:

  • Dental healthcare professionals must weigh the evidence when advising parents.
  • Informed recommendations can optimize pacifier use and minimize potential negative impacts.
