Background:Staphylococci, notably Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), are prominent pathogens implicated in chronic infections and those linked to indwelling medical devices.
Ayurveda always emphasize the importance of health as a whole in terms of both Shareerika and Manasika Swasthya. Acharya Sushrut clearly defines health as balanced state of Dosa, Agni, Dhatu, Mala and Prasannata of Indriya and Manas. In the present era, there are many causes for the impairment in Manasika Swasthya. Among that not controlling the occurrence of Dharaniya Vega has a key role. Manasika Vega refers to the intensification of Dharaniya Vega, which includes emotions such as Kama (desire), Krodha (anger), Lobha (greed), Mada (pride), Matsarya (envy) and others.
Introduction: The fight against diseases, especially those preventable by vaccination, is a priority for the world’s health authorities. Measles remains one of the main causes of infant and child mortality despite the availability of a safe and effective vaccine. Prior to the introduction of mass vaccination in 1980, measles caused nearly 2.6 million deaths per year.Method: Our study was cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical. It took place from 01 to 31 January 2024 in the San health district.
Aim & Objective: The study aims to assess the association of hormonal fingerprints with malocclusion among 18-25 years old dental students. Introduction: A ‘Hormonal Fingerprint’ biomarker is the ratio of the lengths of the second and fourth digits. In dentistry, few research have been conducted to assess the impact of hormonal fingerprints on oral health, prompting us to develop a new approach for predicting malocclusion. Material & Methods: A total of 160 dental students were randomly selected from both gender of age group 18-25 years.
Introduction: Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) can cause intracranial and extracranial complications. Reducing its prevalence may have both immediate and long-term health advantages. Understanding the local microbial flora in CSOM is critical before beginning empirical therapy. Our study sought to evaluate the link between bacterial profiles and demographic features in patients admitted to tertiary care institutions with persistent suppurative otitis media infections.
Background: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is used in diagnosis of superficial & deep seated swellings of various organ of body. Different organs include breast, lymph node, thyroid, salivary gland & soft tissue etc. FNAC gives added advantage as it is an outpatient procedure & gives early differentiation from non-neoplastic & malignant lesion. The present study was aimed to study clinical features& cytomorphology of different lesions in body.
Introduction: This article depicts the clinical presentation, diagnosis, management, and reepithelialization assessment of a fibroma; a fibrotic lesion of the gingiva and oral mucosa that can cause aesthetic and functional issues. Case report: The case report involves laser excision of a painless, firm growth on the lower front region of the jaw, caused by trauma or irritation. The lesion was histologically confirmed as originating from the oral mucosa and healing was assessed using methylene blue assay.
Over the course of the last ten years, targeted small molecule medications have brought about a significant change in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). These medications disrupt the ATP-dependent ABL tyrosine kinase, which in turn disrupts a constitutively active BCR-ABL, which is the agent that is responsible for chronic myeloid leukemia. Despite the fact that tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been shown to be helpful in facilitating a survival rate that is more than 90 percent, these medications do not have any curative effects.
The concept of visha (poison/toxin) in Ayurveda holds timeless significance in understanding and addressing toxic exposure. Ancient Ayurvedic texts provide profound insights into the sources, classification, and management of visha, many of which align with modern toxicological principles. Contemporary sources of toxins, including industrial pollutants, agrochemicals, and lifestyle-related exposures, pose significant health risks today.
In the present study, we explore the transformative impact of smart materials and their diverse applications in science, engineering, and technology disciplines. Smart materials exhibit adaptive behaviors in response to environmental changes, such as temperature, stress, or electromagnetic fields.
