- Aim To assess the prevalence and severity of periodontitis in patients with moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD) and comparing the results with the self-reported periodontitis awareness of the study subjects. Material and methods The periodontal status of 270 patients with moderate CKD randomly selected from a cohort of 5,217 subjects participating in the prospective observational German Chronic Kidney Disease (GCKD) project was analysed by recording bleeding on probing (BOP), probing pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment level (CAL). Furthermore, the awareness of the study subjects of their periodontal conditions was evaluated by a self-reported questionnaire. Results 24.4% of the CKD study patients showed no or only mild signs of periodontal disease, 47.6% displayed moderate and 27% severe periodontitis. Questionnaire data revealed that 62.3% of the study subjects with severe periodontitis were not aware of the presence of the disease, 44.4% denied having received any systematic periodontal therapy so far, although 50% of them indicated to visit their dentist regularly for professional tooth cleanings. Conclusion While the clinical study data confirm an increased prevalence of periodontitis in CKD patients, their self-reported awareness of periodontitis was low.

- Objectives: To describe histometrical outcomes (tissue thickness, tissue height) of a porcine dermal matrix (PDX) and subepithelial connective tissue (CTG) in the treatment of dehiscence-type defects. Material and methods: In five beagle dogs buccal dehiscence defects were created on both upper canines. The defects were covered in a split-mouth design either with a porcine dermal matrix or subepithelial connective tissue. After 4months histometrical outcomes were evaluated using a nonparametric Brunner-Langer model. Results: Neither in the test nor in the control specimen signs of inflammation or foreign body reaction was detected. Histometrically, no significant difference was found for tissue thickness and height between both treatment groups. Conclusions: Porcine dermal matrix can be used for grafting of dehiscence-type defects. Augmentation of tissue thickness seems to be comparable to subepithelial connective tissue.

- BackgroundHuman coexistence with other animals can result in both intentional and unintentional contact with a variety of mammalian and non-mammalian species. International travellers are at risk for such encounters; travellers risk injury, infection and possibly death from domestic and wild animal bites, scratches, licks and other exposures. The aim of the present analysis was to understand the diversity and distribution of animal-related exposures among international travellers.MethodsData from January 2007 through December 2018 from the GeoSentinel Surveillance Network were reviewed. Records were included if the exposure was non-migration travel with a diagnosis of an animal (dog, cat, monkey, snake or other) bite or other exposure (non-bite); records were excluded if the region of exposure was not ascertainable or if another, unrelated acute diagnosis was reported.ResultsA total of 6470 animal exposures (bite or non-bite) were included. The majority (71%) occurred in Asia. Travellers to 167 countries had at least one report of an animal bite or non-bite exposure. The majority (76%) involved dogs, monkeys and cats, although a wide range of wild and domestic species were involved. Almost two-thirds (62.6%) of 4395 travellers with information available did not report a pretravel consultation with a healthcare provider.ConclusionsMinimizing bites and other animal exposures requires education (particularly during pretravel consultations) and behavioral modification. These should be supplemented by the use of pre-exposure rabies vaccination for travellers to high-risk countries (especially to those with limited access to rabies immunoglobulin), as well as encouragement of timely (in-country) post-exposure prophylaxis for rabies and Macacine alphaherpesvirus 1 (herpesvirus B) when warranted.

- Bakterien spielen bei Erkrankungen in der Mundhohle, z.B. Gingivitis, Parodontitis und Karies, eine wesent-liche Rolle. Nicht nur, dass sie selbst iiber Toxine oder Sduren zu den Er-krankungen beitragen, sie rufen auch das Immunsystem auf den Plan, das oft zu den zerstdrerischen Folgen der Erkrankungen beitragt. Verschiedene orale Nischen wie die Zunge oder die Tonsillen erschweren die sorg/'iiltige Keimzahlreduktion in derMundhohle und bieten den Bakterien optimale Refugien, aus denen heraus sie auch nach einergriindlichen Reinigung die Zahne und das Zahnfleisch erneut be-siedeln kdnnen. Die Full-Mouth-Disinfection (FMD) nach Prof. Quirynen empfieh(t daher nach der mechanischen Parodonti-tistherapie eine sorgfaltige Keimzahl-reduktion sdmtlicher oraler Nischen mit Chlorhexidin (CHX), um die Reko-lonisation dergereinigten Areale zu verzogern. Vor diesem Hintergrund hat ein von der IHCF einberufenes Ex-pertenpanel am 3. Mdrz 2006 in Lin-dau einen Workshop abgehalten. Da-bei wurde auf Basis der aktuellen Li-teratur ein Konsens zur Bedeutung von CHX fiir die Keimzahlsenkung im Rahmen der FMD bei Parodontitis, aber auch im Zusammenhang mit anderen relevanten Indikationen wie Karies erarbeitet, der im Folgenden zusammengefasst is
