Our evolved understanding of the human health risks of mercury

Niladri Basu et al.

Summary: Mercury is a worldwide health concern and its regulation is addressed through the Minamata Convention. This review paper highlights the evolution of scientific understanding on mercury, from past poisoning events to recent epidemiological studies. It emphasizes the importance of considering socio-environmental variables and local contexts in health studies, based on diverse source-exposure scenarios across global regions. The paper concludes with perspectives on future mercury health research in the post-Minamata Convention era.

The effect of gum chewing on xerostomia and salivary flow rate in elderly and medically compromised subjects: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Michael W. J. Dodds et al.

Summary: Gum chewing can increase salivary flow rate and provide subjective relief from xerostomia. The improvement in salivation is greater with longer duration of gum chewing. However, further research is needed to eliminate bias and standardize the measurement methods.
