Chitosan and gelatin have excellent properties in biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-toxicity and water absorption capacity. The objective of this review was to analyze the characteristics of chitosan-gelatin (CG) composite-based biomaterial and its effectivity as a local hemostatic agent. We used PRISMA guidelines and the PICO framework to compile this review. The findings demonstrated that the CG composite-based biomaterial had excellent physical, chemical, mechanical properties and local hemostatic agent activity by adding other active substances such as oxidized fibers (OF), silica nanoparticles (SiNPs), calcium (Ca) and biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) or by setting the CG composite proportion ratio.

The rats then were treated with zoledronic acid till sacrifice at week two, four and eight. The site of tooth extraction on jaws, and the defect on femurs were analysed by histomorphometry and microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) examination. Findings and Conclusion: Micro-CT scanning showed higher bone density in ZA treated femur and jaw bones comparing with that in saline treated group. Necrotic bone was found only in the mandibles in ZA treated group. Vascular casts by micro-CT examination showed that the blood vessels in ZA treated group were denser but less structured than that in control group in jaw bones; however, the difference was not evident in femur site.

The most effective treatment for this lesion is a surgical excision. Superficial parotidectomy is considered to be gold standard for benign tumours localised in superficial parotid lobe but has higher complication rate. Objective: The objective of this study was to analyse surgical outcome of superficial parotidectomy on the treatment of pleomorphic adenoma. Methods: Clinical records on a 3-year period of 15 patients were analysed for surgical outcome characteristics. Findings: On this review, tumour recurrence was found on one patient (6.67%), four patients (26.67%) with auricular numbness, three patients (20%) with facial nerve palsy, one patient (6.67%) with Frey's syndrome. The surgical complication was higher on the tumours with diameter >4 cm. Conclusion: Superficial parotidectomy is favourable as surgical approach on pleomorphic adenoma localised in superficial parotid lobe in certain condition.

The p53 tumor suppressor gene known as "the guardian of the genome" has a major function in cell cycle control and act as a main defense against cancer, the occurrence of genomic instability causes inactivation and mutation of p53, which related to the progression of cancer cells and poor prognosis for patients. Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), a catalytic protein subunit of the complex telomerase enzyme, prevents telomere erosion during DNA replication, thus allowing cells to escape the aging cell step. The relationship between hTERT and malignant transformation is around 90%, the detection of hTERT is associated with malignancy that leads to a worse prognosis which increases immortality or continuous growth in cancer cells. This study was conducted with retrospective cross sectional using immunohistochemical p53 and hTERT sm...

The main factors that contribute to its recurrence rate are presumed to be the thinness of the cyst wall, the high copability of the cyst epithelium to proliferate or multiplicate and the presence of the microcysts in the mother cyst capsule. The treatment of the lesion is still controversial and ranges from enucleation to resection. A relatively new approach to the therapy of keratocysts is to fix, that the cyst in a fixation agent for preventing spillage of vital epithelial cells during surgery.
