The trypsin-like activity of mixed saliva in orthopedic patients after implant placement was monitored. Proved negative impact on the processes of repair of background somatic pathology (peptic ulcers and 12 duodenal ulcers), justify the application of immunomodulator "Erbisol" as a drug that speeds up the repair processes during implantation. At present, the relevant issues are those related to the development of inflammatory complications at the stage of rehabilitation of patients, especially in the presence of somatic pathology and the study of the tissue complex of the implantation zone. Peptic ulcer disease occupies one of the main places in the structure of lesions of the digestive system. The close interdependence between the pathology of internal organs and the oral cavity is confirmed by numerous observations and studies.Implant placement is accompanied by changes in the enzymatic activity of mixed saliva. The presence of somatic pathology (ulcerative disease of the stomach and 12 duodenal ulcers) often leads to more long-term violations of the enzymatic activity of saliva. The use of the drug "Erbisol" in orthopedic dentistry accelerates the repair process, as evidenced by the earlier periods of normalization of the enzymatic activity of mixed saliva, after the installation of implants.Regular and timely monitoring of the condition of the periarticular tissues, as well as objective diagnosis of early inflammatory complications, are necessary to ensure the reliability and long-term functioning of prosthetic structures installed on implants in the oral cavity.It can be concluded that the purpose of our study was to study the trypsin-like activity (TPA) of mixed saliva after implant placement on the background of somatic pathology.

An indicator of the health of the human body in the state of the oral mucosa. Mechanical and chemical factors constantly influence it. At the first stage of the study, a comparative analysis of the frequency of various forms of traumatic injuries of the oral mucosa was carried out. The distribution of patients into groups was also carried out, depending on the medicinal product used. Then clinical examinations were carried out. After that, the therapy of traumatic erosive and ulcerative lesions of the oral mucosa began. The developed method for treating traumatic lesions of the oral mucosa with medicine based on phytoecdysteroids provides for eliminating the traumatic factor, applying ointment based on phytoecdysteroids to the dried out focus twice a day. The use of phyto-ointment leads to complete repair of traumatic erosive and ulcerative lesions of the oral mucosa on average by the eighth day from the start of treatment; a similar effect with the use of "Solcoseryl dental adhesive paste" is achieved by the tenth day, and the gel "Cholisal Dental" - at a later date, which is confirmed in this study. The most significant positive effect on the level of quality of life associated with the effectiveness of treatment of traumatic erosive and ulcerative lesions of the oral mucosa in comparison with the dental “Solcoseryl dental adhesive paste” and the gel “Cholisal Dental” is exerted by phyto-ointment, where a decrease in the total points was recorded. When conducting routine examinations of patients, it is necessary to pay attention to the oral mucosa damage. Moreover, in treating traumatic injuries of the oral mucosa, it is recommended to use phytoointment, which contains phytoecdysteroids.

Background: Researchers are carried out to assess rocks containing potassium as an alternative source of fertilizers. These studies are important in reducing the external dependence of Brazil on this commodity. Phonolite is a rock of volcanic origin that has in its mineralogical composition the predominance of feldspar and has been potential to use as an alternative potassium source. The studied rock has 6% total-K but is unavailable to plants in natural rock. Aim: This project evaluated the effect of mechanical activation, wet and dry, on K availability for extractors different and its K leaching curves of phonolite from Poços de Caldas, MG, Brazil. Methods: Phonolite rock was subjected to mechanical activation for 30 and 60 min by wet and dry processes. Particle size distribution, XRD, and FTIR analyses characterized phonolite activated. These results were compared to the behavior of the rock with no activation. K availability (total; water-soluble; exchangeable, non-exchangeable, and structural) was determined in samples activated and no activation. K leaching curves were obtained by successive extractions with 0.01 mol L-1 citric acid and Mehlich-1 solutions to 1812 h and analyzed by FAAS. Results: The samples mechanical activation promoted a reduction in the intensity of the diffraction peaks. In the sample dry mechanical activation for 60 min, K released increased by 15% in relation to the no activation sample. K leaching curves were observed with similar behavior for the extractors and higher K availability after 235 h of total contact time. Discussion: Mechanical activation promoted a decrease in structural K and an increase in non-exchangeable K, released into the soil solution in the medium term. Since the mineralogical composition was not changed, the process action is more efficient in creating the structural defects suggested. K leaching curves corroborate these results, with a continuous and slow K released for a longer contact time. Conclusions: It was concluded that the phonolite activated by dry mechanical activation for 60 min increased K-released content compared with the wet process and ratified the possibility of the activated phonolite rock as a slow-release fertilizer.
