Abstract
Odontogenic infections can cause serious inflammatory problems of the soft and hard tissues in the maxillofacial area up to, albeit in quite remote circumstances, involvement of the brain tissues. In recent years, therefore, a holistic diagnostic-therapeutic approach has been developed in the management of odontogenic infections by carrying out a careful systemic history of the patient who has an infectious condition in the oral cavity. The early detection of systemic sepsis conditions was facilitated using serum biomarkers such as PCR, Procalcitonin (PCT) and Presepsin (PSEP) in hospital emergency rooms. However, even if used in combination, their diagnostic accuracy is such as to suggest the importance of researching new, more specific, and sensitive biomarkers. A total of 9 articles was analyzed to investigate the use of the PSEP as biomarker in the maxillo-facial region infections and including only English-language articles and the electronic search of publications from 1 January 2017 to 31 December 2021. This study aimed to determine the diagnostic value of presepsin in condition of sepsis derived from an odontogenic infection and to evaluate its use in the prognostic evaluation phase of surgical interventions performed in the maxillofacial area.
期刊介绍：
The Italian Journal of Anatomy and Embryology, founded in 1901 by Giulio Chiarugi, Anatomist at Florence University, is a peer-reviewed journal sponsored by the Italian Society of Anatomy and Embryology. The journal publishes original papers, invited review articles, historical article, commentaries, obituitary, and book reviews. Its main focus is to understand anatomy through an analysis of structure, function, development and evolution. Priority will be given to studies of that clearly articulate their relevance to the anatomical community. Focal areas include: experimental studies, contributions based on molecular and cell biology and on the application of modern imaging techniques; comparative functional morphology; developmental biology; functional human anatomy; methodological innovations in anatomical research; significant advances in anatomical education. Studies that are essentially descriptive anatomy are appropriate only if they communicate clearly a broader functional or evolutionary significance. All papers should be submitted in English and must be original works that are unpublished and not under consideration by another journal. An international Editorial Board and reviewers from the anatomical disciplines guarantee a rapid review of your paper within two to three weeks after submission.
