Oxford hip and knee scores deteriorate in patients awaiting lower limb arthroplasty during the COVID-19 pandemic and predict a health state ‘worse than death’ by Jack O. Clark, Nima Razii, S. W. Justin Lee, Stephen J. Grant, Martin J. Davison, Oliver Bailey

“…A strong positive correlation between the EQ-5D-5L index score and OHS/OKS was observed (r = 0.818; p < 0.001). Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that an OHS/OKS lower than nine predicted a health state WTD (88% sensitivity and 73% specificity). …”

Participação das metaloproteinases da matriz na etiopatogenia dos cistos odontogênicos Role of matrix metalloproteinases in the etiopathogeny of odontogenic cysts by Éricka Janine Dantas da Silveira, Marta Rabello Piva, Hébel Cavalcanti Galvão, Lélia Batista de Souza, Roseana de Almeida Freitas

“…With relation to MMP-9, the lining of all lesions was immunoexpressed focally (100% of RCs, RRCs and OKs and 60% of DCs). In relation to mesenchyme, the immunoexpression was higher in all OKs: the MMP-1 scores were diffuse (100%), while most of the other studied lesions were focal; all OKs focally immunoexpressed the MMP-2, what differed from the other cysts which did not express this MMP. …”
