- Vitamin D in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. Mechanisms of Action and Therapeutic Implicationsby Filippo Vernia on January 21, 2022
(1) Background: Vitamin D is an immunoregulatory factor influencing intestinal homeostasis. Recent evidence supports a central role of this micronutrient in the course of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD). This narrative review aims to provide a general overview of the possible biological mechanisms of action of vitamin D and its therapeutic implications in IBD. (2) Methods: A systematic electronic search of the English literature up to October 2021 was performed using Medline and the Cochrane...
- Minimally Invasive Dentistry: Parent/Carer Perspectives on Atraumatic Restorative Treatments and Dental General Anaesthesia to the Management of Early Childhood Cariesby Peter Arrow on January 20, 2022

This study elicited the views of parents/carers (P/C) of children with early childhood caries (ECC) who participated in a randomised trial (core study) which tested the effectiveness of care under DGA or care using alternative minimally invasive Atraumatic Restorative Treatment and the Hall Technique approaches (ART/HT). Methods: P/C of children treated using the ART/HT...

- The role of lag effect in distributed practice on learning novel vocabularyby Roha M Kaipa on January 13, 2022
CONCLUSION: The findings indicate that an increased temporal lag between the practice sessions results in a "non-monotonic function," wherein the learning continues to improve until an optimal lag, after which the learning declines as the lag continues to increase. This line of research will have a substantive impact on service-delivery models in speech-language pathology.
