Article Abstract
This study gives an insight into certain systemic conditions and factors such as nutrition, age, hematological disorders, hypertension, smoking, obesity, and metabolic syndrome that have a notable effect on the periodontium. The review highlights the importance of taking these factors into consideration in periodontal therapy and their impact on the prognosis of periodontal therapies. The other systemic factors are discussed in detail elsewhere in the special issue.

Morning Larks and Night Owls: Considering Chronotype in Evaluation of Patients with Pulmonary Hypertension.
Ann Am Thorac Soc
September 2025
University of Florida, Department of Medicine, Gainesville, Florida, United States;
Background: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a systemic illness with increasingly subtle disease manifestations including sleep disruption. Patients with PH are at increased risk for disturbances in circadian biology, although to date there is no data on "morningness" or "eveningness" in pulmonary vascular disease.
Research Questions: Our group studied circadian rhythms in PH patients based upon chronotype analysis, to explore whether there is a link between circadian parameters and physiologic risk-stratifying factors to inform novel treatment strategies in patients with PH?
Study Design And Methods: We serially recruited participants from July 2022 to March 2024, administering in clinic the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ).
Fatal Toxoplasma gondii COUG strain infections in southern sea otters (Enhydra lutris nereis): New insight on contributing factors and parasite serotyping.
PLoS One
September 2025
Department of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis, California, United States of America.
Fatal infections with the rare COUG strain of the zoonotic parasite Toxoplasma gondii were recently detected for the first time in four southern sea otters (Enhydra lutris nereis) exhibiting severe protozoal steatitis. The objectives of this study were to describe new COUG strain infections in sea otters, investigate the potential contributory role of a recently discovered parasite-infecting narnavirus (Apocryptovirus odysseus) in these infections, assess the potential contribution of vitamin E deficiency in the development of systemic steatitis, and explore the utility of serotyping for strain-specific diagnosis of T. gondii infections in sea otters.

Humanitarian crises, particularly in conflict zones, create cascading disruptions that impact every aspect of daily life, including health and disease outcomes. While international humanitarian frameworks categorize these crises into discrete operational clusters, affected populations experience them as interwoven, systemic failures. This study examines how conflict-induced disruptions transform a preventable and typically self-limiting disease-Hepatitis A-into a fatal outcome.

Cornea
September 2025
Cornea Department, Ophthalmic Consultants of Long Island, Rockville Center, NY.
Purpose: This review and case report address ligneous conjunctivitis (LC), a rare ocular condition caused by plasminogen deficiency type 1 (PLGD-1), which manifests as wood-like fibrin-rich membranes on the palpebral conjunctiva. The goal is to provide ophthalmologists-often the first physicians to encounter the condition-with a robust understanding of its systemic manifestations and to highlight current therapeutic strategies, with particular emphasis on the administration of intravenous plasminogen concentrate.
Methods: We present a clinical LC case alongside a narrative review of published cases, etiology, and treatment approaches.
From Gut Inflammation to Cardiovascular Conflagration: Mapping IBD's Cardiometabolic Risks.
Curr Atheroscler Rep
September 2025
Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Lynda K. and David M. Underwood Center for Digestive Health, Houston Methodist Hospital, Houston, TX, USA.
Purpose Of Review: This review aims to characterize the known cardiovascular (CV) manifestations associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the underlying mechanisms driving these associations.
Recent Findings: Gut dysbiosis, a hallmark of patients with IBD, can result in both local and systemic inflammation, thereby potentially increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the IBD population. Micronutrient deficiencies, anemia, and sarcopenia independently increase the risk of CVD and are frequent comorbidities of patients with IBD.
