Does timing affect the clinical outcome of adjunctive systemic antibiotic therapy for generalized aggressive periodontitis?
Within the limits of a retrospective analysis, these findings indicate that administration of amoxicillin/metronidazole immediately after initial SRP provides more PD reduction and RAL "gain" in initially deep sites than late administration at SPT with reinstrumentation after 3 months.
Early and progressive increase in sTNFR1 and sTNFR2 levels is associated with higher risk for poor outcome in severely burned patients.
