Complexities of Oral Health Management among Autism Patients: Strategies for Multidisciplinary Collaboration

by Aram George Shatara, Cezar Edward Lahham,

Journal of Medical Research and Reviews. 2024; 2 (2): 56-59 - https://dx.doi.org/10.5455/JMRR.20240228082455

ABSTRACT: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) presents intricate challenges in managing oral and dental health, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of its diverse manifestations and associated difficulties. Despite the absence of specific oral peculiarities directly linked to ASD, individuals diagnosed with ASD often experience poorer oral health outcomes compared to the general population. Factors such as sensory sensitivities, communication barriers, and behavioral challenges contribute to difficulties in maintaining optimal oral hygiene, resulting in a higher prevalence of teeth decay. Furthermore, children with ASD exhibit unique challenges during dental visits, including sensory aversions, communication [...]   Read more

Unlocking the pathological pathway in urinary tract infection-induced brain fog: A literature review

by Youssef Kteich, Hadi Ftouni, Hiba Hamdar, Shady Sapoor,

Journal of Medical Research and Reviews. 2024; 2 (2): 49-55 - https://dx.doi.org/10.5455/JMRR.20240305101602

ABSTRACT: Brain fog is a common and bothersome symptom caused by urinary tract infections. Along with other symptoms like delirium, memory issues, confusion, and disorientation, this cognitive impairment may include trouble thinking clearly. Sudden confusion or delirium can be brought on by urinary tract infections, especially in elderly or dementia patients. It is hypothesized that urinary tract infections affect hippocampal neurogenesis and other aspects of brain homeostasis, which may be linked to their effects on cognitive function. Moreover, mental anguish and confusion are linked to urinary tract infections, though not all [...]   Read more
