    Abstract Recruitment to specialist training in all 10 surgical specialities has been in decline in recent years. There have, in recent years, been perceived difficulties in recruiting dentists into DCT or SHO roles in Maxillofacial Surgery units with posts going unfilled. This survey examines the reasons behind this recruitment issue.

  2. Article ; Online: Is there a significant difference in the oral microbiome in vapers vs non-vapers?

    Abstract Data sources: This study was a secondary data analysis of a parent study that was initially designed to assess saliva and exhaled breath for passive e-cigarette vapour exposure in children. The initial study collected patients using convenience sampling of the local community between July 2018 and February 2019 and ethical approval was obtained prior to commencing.
    Data extraction and synthesis: Eligibility criteria for the parent vapers in the original study included self-reported daily use of e-cigarettes in the presence of children via the use of a questionnaire. Microbiome data for a total of 36 adults were collected and analysed in this study (18 vapers and 18 non-vapers).
    Results: Vapers have a distinct oral microbiome compared with non-vapers. They tend to have a higher relative abundance of Veilonella, an opportunistic pathogen that can stimulate the growth of other opportunistic pathogens. This species has also been found in carious lesions compared with healthy tooth surface.

    Abstract Study population and design This randomised observational study compared the analgesic efficacy of intra-canal local ibuprofen paste (Odontocide) with systemic ibuprofen capsules. Ninety patients with symptomatic apical periodontitis scheduled to undergo endodontic therapy were randomised to receive either local ibuprofen, systemic ibuprofen, or no ibuprofen (control). Using a visual analogue scale, pain scores were measured at set time points in the first 48 hours after endodontic instrumentation. The endodontic instrumentation procedures were standardised to use the same endodontic files, sodium hypochlorite, and EDTA irrigants. Canals were dressed with either Odontocide (local ibuprofen paste) or calcium oxide in the systemic ibuprofen and control groups.Data analysis Friedman and Wilcoxon tests were used to compare groups. A power calculation was listed in the methods of the paper which is an important and appropriate step.Results Systemic ibuprofen gave statistically significant better pain relief compared with local ibuprofen paste applied to root canals but only in the first 24 hours after root canal instrumentation. After the 24-hour mark, the systemic ibuprofen had a lower mean pain score but this was not statistically significant. Systemic ibuprofen was always statistically better at providing pain relief than the control.

    Abstract Study selection Two electronic databases (Medline/PubMed and Embase) were searched up to 30 August 2020. Selected papers fitted the following criteria: human studies published in the English language that assessed adult patients over the age of 18 with a presumptive diagnosis of an oral potentially malignant disorder, oral cancer or oropharyngeal cancer. The studies compared either visual inspection or light-based tests with diagnostic biopsy of the lesions. The outcome measures identified were: sensitivity, specificity, summary receiver operating characteristic curve (SROC), positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV).Data extraction and synthesis The extraction of data followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline process. Two independent reviewers selected articles via PubMed search, and a further two independent reviewers selected articles via an Embase search. The quantitative data obtained from each study was used to create a database that recorded information on sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, PPV and NPV. Additionally, the value of true positive (VP), false positive (FP), true negative (VN) and false negative (FN) were extracted from each study. In cases where these were not reported, an estimate was calculated. The quality of diagnostic precision studies (QUADAS-2) tool was used to rate the quality of studies as high, unclear, or low.Results A total of 40 papers were ultimately included within the meta-analysis with 5,562 samples of autofluorescence, 1,353 samples of chemiluminescence and 1,892 samples of clinical examination. The majority of the studies evaluating chemiluminescence used the ViziLite technique while most of the studies evaluating autofluorescence used the VELscope. The QUADAS-2 pointed to most of the studies included in this review being of good quality. Clinical examination had the highest specificity (0.78-95% CI [0.65-0.87]) for declaring mucosa to be normal in the absence of dysplasia and malignancy, but had the lowest sensitivity (0.63-95% CI [0.45-0.78]) of actually diagnosing sinister lesions. Autofluorescence more accurately identified premalignant and malignant changes (sensitivity = 0.86 95% CI [0.77-0.91]) compared with chemiluminescence (sensitivity = 0.67 95% CI [0.38-0.87]) and visual examination (sensitivity = 0.63 95% CI [0.45-0.78]). Autofluorescence was also faster and simpler to use compared with chemiluminescence.Conclusions This review and meta-analysis concludes that autofluorescence has greater accuracy in identifying premalignant and early neoplastic changes compared with clinical examination and chemiluminescence. Biopsy remains the gold standard for definitive diagnosis of oropharyngeal and oral premalignant and malignant conditions.

    Abstract How has the COVID-19 pandemic affected public attitudes toward immigration? Long-term evidence in Europe and the United States suggests attitudes to immigration are relatively stable and, in some cases, becoming more favorable with high volatility instead of the perceived importance of the issue. However, theoretically a global pandemic could exacerbate people's fears of outsiders or that migration may contribute to the disease. By contrast, attitudes could remain stable if their distal drivers prove to be robust enough to withstand the shock of COVID-19. We draw from Eurobarometer data from 2014 to 2021 across 28 European countries, weekly national survey data during the outbreak from the United States and individual panel data from the United Kingdom and Germany to find little
