The diagnosis of the status of the inflamed pulp is essential in clinical diagnosis and treatment provision. There are a limited number of well-designed and well-executed clinical trials on the diagno...
Three PICO questions were formulated and agreed a priori by the European Society of Endodontology to evaluate the clinical tests for sensibility testing, determination of biomarkers and pulp bleeding ...
A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Clarivate Analytics' Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from inception to 21 January 2022. Additi...
In total, 28 studies out of 29 publications were considered eligible and were included in the review. Twelve studies were identified to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of the pulp vitality. Ten st...
The core problem in pulp diagnostics is that a reliable reference standard is lacking under clinical conditions. Based on limited evidence, the most promising current approach seems to define a combin...
The effectiveness of diagnosing pulpitis is low due to limited scientific evidence regarding the accuracy and reproducibility of diagnostic tests. There is a lack of evidence to determine the true sta...

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as critical regulators of various biological processes, including immune regulation....
Due to the critical significance of immunological responses in the development and progression of pulpitis, we used an integrated algorithm to identify immune-related lncRNAs and then examined the lnc...
An integrated algorithm was designed to filtrate immune-related lncRNAs accurately. 790 immune-related lncRNAs were found in 17 immunological categories, with 38 of them perturbated in pulpitis. The C...
Our study identified many immune-related lncRNAs and investigated potential lncRNA regulation networks; meanwhile, the molecular subtypes of pulpitis were identified, all of which will be relevant for...
The molecular mechanisms underlying the onset and progression of irreversible pulpitis have been studied for decades. Many studies have indicated a potential correlation between autophagy and this dis...
Filtering and differential expression analyses of the GSE92681 dataset, which contains data from 7 inflamed and 5 healthy pulp tissue samples, were conducted. The results were intersected with autopha...
We constructed two networks consisting of 9 hub lncRNAs based on the comprehensive identification of autophagy-related ceRNAs. This study may provide novel insights into the interactive relationship b...
The role of ferroptosis in irreversible pulpitis (IP) remains unclear. The competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) theory that has been widely investigated is rarely used studied in IP. Hub lncRNAs selected ...
Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were intersected with 484 ferroptosis markers to identify differentially expressed ferroptosis-related genes (DE-FRGs). Functional analysis and protein-protein in...
According to the results of PCA and clustering analysis, 5 inflamed and 5 healthy pulp tissue samples were selected for analysis. The intersection of DEGs with 484 ferroptosis marker genes identified ...
Two ceRNA networks were comprehensively constructed, and 6 hub lncRNAs were identified. These genes provide novel insights into the relationship between ferroptosis and IP. Intriguingly, the LINC00943...
Inflammation of the dental pulp due to caries is a highly prevalent pathology which causes intense pain. Here, we sought to correlate the clinical picture with the histopathology of the affected tissu...
This study characterized Schwann cells and other neuroimmune components in human dental pulps with reversible and symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (IP). Twenty eight human teeth were extracted for re...
Symptomatic IP was characterized by a significantly higher density of neutrophils, and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps. Between IP and healthy controls, there were significant difference...
The dental pulp has a complex multicellular organization and its pulpodentinal interface acts as a barrier in which Schwann and immune cells are distributed strategically to stop the progress of patho...
Irreversible pulpitis is an inflammation of the tooth pulp caused by an opportunity-driven invasion of the pulp space by oral microbiota typically prevalent in the oral cavity. Microbial organisms are...
Nonsurgical root canal therapy (NSRCT) is indicated for management of permanent teeth diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. However, recent research has suggested that vital pulp therapy (...
The PRISMA recommendations were adhered to. The search approach used electronic databases from PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and grey literature. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, ROBINS-I, and Coch...
The initial database search turned up 142 papers, of which 3 prospective cohort studies and 9 randomised controlled trials were selected for analysis. For three, seven, and two articles, the risk of b...
When considering VPT as an alternative to NSRCT, appropriate case selection and outcome criteria must be created. This data highlights the need for additional studies contrasting the longer-term effec...
In situ assessments of neurotrophic factors and their associated molecular partners have not been explored to date, particularly in humans. The present investigation aimed to explore the expressional ...
Forty samples each of healthy and irreversibly inflamed pulp were extirpated for the study. Immunohistochemical examinations were carried out for the anatomic changes and expression of neurotrophic fa...
Decrease in nuclear and vessel diameters was observed in irreversibly inflamed pulp tissues. NGF and BDNF were found to be significantly upregulated in symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (SIP), whereas...
Upregulation of NGF, BDNF, USP36 and Nedd4-2 in SIP indicates dysregulation in the molecular events underlying the disease biology and could be exploited as potential markers for the disease diagnosis...
Pulpotomy has been used in primary teeth and immature permanent teeth. However, with the advent of new bioactive material, the procedure is shifting towards permanent teeth with mature apices of roots...
Inflammatory biomarkers are potentially useful targets for pulpal diagnostic tests that can identify pulp status and predict vital pulp treatment (VPT) outcome, however, their accuracy is unknown....
(1) Calculate sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) of previously investigated pulpitic biomarkers; (2) Determine if biomarker levels discriminate between clinical diagnoses of pulp...

prospective and retrospective observational studies and randomized trials. Participants were humans with vital permanent teeth and a well-defined pulpal diagnosis....
deciduous teeth, in vitro and animal studies. Risk of bias was assessed with modified-Downs and Black quality assessment checklist. Meta-analysis was performed using bivariate random effect model in M...
Fifty-six studies were selected, reporting >70 individual biomolecules investigating pulpal health and disease at the gene and protein level. Most studies were of low and fair quality. Among the biomo...
The inability of identified molecular inflammatory markers to discriminate between dental pulps with spontaneous and non-spontaneous pain should shift the focus to improved study quality or the pursui...
Low-quality evidence suggests IL-8 and IL-6 demonstrated level of diagnostic accuracy to discriminate between healthy pulps and those exhibiting spontaneous pain. There is a need for standardized biom...
