Authors: Punga Rohit , Bhagat Nitin , Gupta Amit , Singh Ashish Kumar , Acikgoz Mustafa Mert
Published: September 2024

Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a common cause of hair loss in both men and women. Recent advances in regenerative medicine have led to the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with micro-needling as a potential treatment for AGA. However, the clinical effectiveness of this combination therapy remains unclear. 

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with micro-needling for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia through a systematic review and meta-analysis of available clinical studies. 

A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for studies published up to January 2024. Inclusion criteria were randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies that assessed hair density, hair thickness, or patient satisfaction after treatment with PRP and micro-needling. Data were extracted and pooled using a random-effects model, and heterogeneity was assessed with the I² statistic. The quality of the studies was evaluated using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool for RCTs and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for cohort studies.

A total of 12 studies involving 546 participants were included. Meta-analysis showed that the combination of PRP and micro-needling significantly increased hair density (mean difference: 18.9 hairs/cm², 95% CI: 15.3-22.5, p < 0.001) and hair thickness (mean difference: 0.4 mm, 95% CI: 0.3-0.5, p < 0.01) compared to controls. Patient satisfaction was also higher in the treatment group. The most commonly reported adverse effects were mild scalp irritation and transient erythema, with no serious adverse events. Moderate heterogeneity was observed among the studies (I² = 42%).  

The combination of PRP and micro-needling is an effective and well-tolerated treatment for androgenetic alopecia, resulting in significant improvements in hair density and thickness. Further large-scale, high-quality trials are needed to confirm these findings and standardize treatment protocols.

Authors: Bhasin Ridam , Gupta Rajan , Dahiya Parveen , Kumar Mukesh
Published: September 2024

The present study aimed to evaluate the use of Bifluorid 10 and 810-nm diode laser alone on the exposed dentinal tubules by occluding the tubules, which is one of the treatment measures including gels, adhesives, toothpastes and mouthwashes used to treat dentinal hypersensitivity.

The study involved 20 periodontally compromised extracted teeth which were sectioned, and dentin samples were prepared. The samples were divided into two groups by using simple randomization technique by tossing a coin; Group A: was treated with Bifluorid 10 alone and Group B: was treated with Laser alone. The treated dentin samples were gold sputtered and were then examined under Scanning electron microscope at a fixed magnification of X5000 and the photomicrographs of the area were obtained.

It was seen that the specimens in Group A showed better dentinal tubule occlusion as compared to Group B. Lesser tubule occlusion was seen in Group B.

After the evaluation of samples treated with Bifluorid 10 and Laser, it was concluded that Bifluorid 10 had shown better tubule occlusion than Laser.

Indirect sinus lift with implant placement in maxillary right molar region
Authors: Kamboj Ashish , Singh Sunil Kumar , Ghildiyal Chandni , Chopra SS , Angrish Paras
Published: September 2024

The maxilla has one of the least dense bone masses in the oral cavity and is composed of porous bone. Due to considerable alveolar bone resorption brought on by periodontal disease-induced tooth loss, there is an emphasis on bone reduction in both height and width. Pneumatization of the maxillary sinus, post-extraction bone resorption, and low-quality remaining alveolar bone all contribute to the difficulty in bone remodelling.

Indirect sinus augmentation is an effective solution for this problem. This case report presents the rehabilitation of maxillary right first molar by using indirect sinus lift with implant placement where the bone height and bone width was compromised.
Nonsurgical endodontic retreatment: A series of four case reports
Authors: Zarekar Mohit , Satpute Apurva , Zarekar Mohini
Published: September 2024

The primary objective of endodontic treatments or any pulp therapy is to maintain the integrity and health of oral tissues. Endodontic treatments aim to disinfect and shape the root canal system completely and obturate it in 3D to prevent reinfection. Although initial root canal therapy has high success rates, failures can occur. The term ‘retreatment’ denotes a new intervention to retain the tooth in the oral cavity. Nonsurgical endodontic retreatment can preserve previously treated teeth with persistent periapical lesion(s), if the tooth is restorable and periodontally sound, and patient wants to keep it. The clinician and patient should select the treatment with the best long-term outcome. This case series describes endodontically treated teeth that required nonsurgical endodontic retreatment due to inadequate obturation, persistent periradicular lesion and loss of coronal seal.

The sources of information about committed crimes
One of the main reasons for undertaking the topic of the sources of information about committed crimes was to create a comprehensive study, as well as to systemize the information indicated in the doctrine, as well as which occur in administration of justice. The topic presented in the thesis constitutes an issue that has not yet been elaborated on in a uniform way, therefore it was purposefully chosen as the focus of the discussion.
The sources of information about committed crimes have remained unchanged for years, with some modification, which are related to scientific, social, and economic development, which has also had an impact on individual sources and the approach towards them undergoing certain transformations. Individual layers of the thesis show the problems concerning the reporting itself, or, in broader terms, information about committed crime, which is related to the objectives and the tasks of the preparatory proceedings. The thesis then discusses the social duty, as well as the legal reporting of committed crime resulting from the Code of Penal Procedure, as well as from other statutes in which it was expressed. What follows is the problem of the aggrieved party, as the entity interested in punishing the perpetrator for the crime. It is also necessary to mention the defendant, who provides information about the crime, which does not have to happen directly, and only indirectly, but which undoubtedly is very significant for the penal process. Then, other sources are indicated, which provide information about crime without being recognized strictly as reporting, such as anonymous reports, and committal proceedings, verification proceedings, as well as information provided by mass media.
Each of the abovementioned sources is described in detail in an independent editorial unit, along with statistical data showing the share of individual entities in administration of justice through provision of information about crime, in order to finally point to the consequences for law enforcement bodies resulting from a crime report, which leads to undertaking relevant actions.

Personal autonomy according to Catriona Mackenzie's relational theory of autonomy
Authors: Penczek Mateusz
Published: September 2024

Celem artykułu jest analiza relacyjnej teorii autonomii osobowej autorstwa Catriony Mackenzie. Na początku przedstawiony został teoretyczny kontekst tej propozycji, w tym cechy charakterystyczne i przykłady relacyjnych ujęć autonomii osobowej. Następnie zaprezentowana została teoria Mackenzie. Zgodnie z nią należy wyróżnić siedem warunków autonomii tworzących trzy odrębne osie: samostanowienie, kierowanie sobą oraz upoważnienie siebie. Żaden z tych warunków nie jest bezwzględnie konieczny, a ocena poziomu autonomii jednostki ma mieć charakter kontekstualny. W ostatniej części artykułu podjęto próbę oceny teorii zaproponowanej przez australijską uczoną. Zauważono, że warunek autentyczności tożsamości praktycznej powinien zostać zastąpiony wymogiem posiadania spójnej tożsamości praktycznej. Aby zaś teorię można było wykorzystywać do oceniania autonomii konkretnych decyzji, należy ją uzupełnić o dwa kolejne warunki: zgodność decyzji podejmowanej przez jednostkę z jej tożsamością praktyczną, a także nieuleganie czynnikom ograniczającym dobrowolność jej decyzji, takim jak przymus, perswazja i manipulacja.
Polish Physical Culture in Germany and the German Minority's Physical Culture in Poland until 1939 – A Comparative Study
Authors: Jurek Tomasz , Urban Renata
Published: September 2024

The article represents the first attempt to depict the similarities and differences in the development of Polish physical culture in Germany and German physical culture in Poland during the interwar period of the 20th century. In both Poland and Germany, up until 1939, national minorities, notably the Germans in Poland and the Polish in Germany, played a significant role in fostering the development of physical culture. Drawing upon scholarly research and archival sources, commonalities between Polish physical culture in Germany and German physical culture in Poland can be discerned. They included: significant politicization, utilization for shaping patriotic attitudes and national integration, activity in the field of physical education, sports, and tourism, similar forms of activity of the Sokół Gymnastic Society in Germany and the German Turner Association in Poland, concern for the development of physical education among children and youth, and support from the respective home countries. However, notable disparities exist, including the longer-standing traditions of German physical culture on Polish soil, the considerably smaller scale of material support from Polish authorities for minorities in Germany, and the involvement of Deutsche Turnerschaft in Poland in a revisionist campaign against Poland in 1939.
A Predictive Model for Assessing Energy Performance in Existing Buildings Enhanced with Sustainable Technologies
Authors: Anarene Bengold
Published: September 2024

The incorporation of new technologies in the existing structures in the building industry has become key towards attaining sustainable solutions for efficiency in energy and quality use of the environment. However, the efficiency of these technologies for attaining favorable energy performance results greatly depends on the proper assessment as well as a prognosis. This paper contributes to the formulation and use of a predictive model that aims at evaluating energy performance in existing buildings integrated with sustainable technology. The model uses information pertaining to building attributes, energy usage history, weather trends, and utilization profiles to estimate energy use in other conditions.
The statistical analysis and machine learning techniques and the building energy simulations have been used as some of the important methodologies for developing the model. All of these approaches are designed, adjusted, and tested using the actual data to enhance their efficiency and credibility. The study highlights issues that arise when predicting such aspects as data quality problems, the complexity of developing systems, and uncertainty of the occupants.
Using several case examples, the predictive model shows that this data can help to understand the potential energy savings that can be made available through the adoption of sustainable technologies. These refer to case studies of office buildings where retrofitting has been done, university campuses, and residential complexes, which make the learner understand how the model works as well as how decisions are made when using it.
In this regard, the findings underpin the value of predictive modeling as a means of managing energy in existing buildings. Another issue that we seek to discuss in the context of the study is the future direction of development of predictive modeling and the integration of smart buildings, the growth of the machine learning market, and the augmentation of user-friendly tools. The findings suggest that predictions from such models can help improve the energy efficiency of structures and therefore support sustainability efforts at large.

La artillería y los artilleros en el ejército neogranadino de la primera mitad del siglo XIX
Authors: Prado Arellano Luis Ervin
Published: September 2024

Los estudios de la profesionalización de las fuerzas armadas se circunscriben a la institucionalización de academias y colegios militares. Pero para el caso del siglo XIX colombiano esta línea heurística es difícil de emprender, porque dichos planteles educativos fueron efímeros o inexistentes, de ahí la necesidad de buscar otros derroteros que permitan rastrear las formas como los oficiales de artillería, el arma más técnica y compleja de los ejércitos, se instruyeron y alcanzaron cierto grado de experticia en el uso de los mixtos (mezclas de pólvora) y el manejo de los cañones de la época. La investigación se sustenta en los informes del secretario de Guerra y Marina con el método prosopográfico, que permitió rastrear los derroteros de varios artilleros en el ejército neogranadino desde los años 20 hasta inicios de los 60. Se concluye que adquirieron cierto grado de experticia y profesionalización en el arma, gracias a la experiencia de años de servicio, la lectura de manuales y a los saberes básicos que difundieron artilleros veteranos, artesanos armeros y polvoreros, para encargarse de los cañones en diversos teatros de operaciones.

Authors: Carreño-Tarazona Clara Ines , Amado-Oliveros Giovanni Fernando
Published: September 2024

Este artículo indaga por tres elementos en particular, que influyeron en el proceso de adjudicación de contratos durante la ejecución de obras sobre las vías de comunicación en el Estado de Boyacá entre 1857 y 1886: la relación Estado-particular, las redes políticas de los contratistas y el incumplimiento de las obras. A partir del análisis de diarios oficiales, informes administrativos y del Fondo Notarial de Boyacá se estudia la prolífica producción de contratos respaldados por la legislación. Se evidencia el aumento de regulaciones contractuales como fundamento de unas prácticas para determinar la organización vial del espacio, que derivan en una relación de dependencia entre políticos, comerciantes y empresarios de caminos con rasgos muy localistas.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran guru Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI) dalam membina karakter religius dan sikap peduli sosial peserta didik. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian lapangan (field research) yang bersifat deskriptif kualitatif dan naturalistic. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu observasi dan wawancara yang digunakan mendapatkan pemahaman yang mendalam mengenai peran guru Pendidikan Agama Islam dalam membina karakter religius dan sikap peduli sosial peserta didik. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Guru Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI) di SMK PGRI 1 Palembang memiliki peran yang baik dalam membina karakter religius dan sikap peduli sosial peserta didik. Sebagai fasilitator, mereka menciptakan lingkungan kondusif melalui kegiatan keagamaan rutin dan fasilitas mushala lengkap, serta memotivasi peserta didik untuk aktif dalam organisasi keagamaan. Meskipun antusiasme peserta didik tinggi, tantangan motivasi masih ada, seperti kebutuhan untuk diingatkan saat shalat. Sebagai supervisor, guru PAI mengajarkan penghargaan terhadap hak orang lain, namun beberapa peserta didik masih kurang sopan dalam mengembalikan barang. Pendekatan supervisi perlu ditingkatkan. Sebagai inspirator, guru PAI menanamkan sikap peduli sosial melalui contoh dan keterlibatan dalam kegiatan sosial, yang membantu peserta didik menerapkan nilai-nilai kepedulian sosial dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis penggunaan media pembelajaran, mengidentifikasi tantangan dalam implementasinya, dan solusi untuk mengatasi kendala yang ada. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data meliputi observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Untuk memastikan validitas data, digunakan triangulasi dengan membandingkan informasi dari berbagai sumber. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis melalui tahapan reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan media video dalam pembelajaran PAI memiliki potensi untuk meningkatkan pemahaman siswa terhadap materi yang kompleks. Namun, implementasinya di SMK Negeri 2 Batanghari Jambi masih terbatas dan seringkali hanya digunakan sebagai tambahan, bukan sebagai metode utama. Guru cenderung lebih nyaman menggunakan metode ceramah, sementara media video lebih sering dianggap sebagai alat bantu. Tantangan utama dalam penggunaan media video meliputi kurangnya kesiapan guru, keterbatasan infrastruktur teknologi, dan karakteristik materi PAI yang memerlukan pendekatan lebih mendalam. Guru sering kali kurang percaya diri atau merasa tidak cukup terampil dalam menggunakan teknologi secara efektif, dan ini diperburuk oleh kurangnya pelatihan serta dukungan infrastruktur seperti akses internet yang tidak memadai. Untuk mengatasi tantangan ini, penelitian ini mengusulkan beberapa solusi strategis, termasuk pelatihan intensif bagi guru mengenai integrasi media video dalam pengajaran, peningkatan infrastruktur teknologi di sekolah, serta pengembangan metode pembelajaran interaktif yang melibatkan penggunaan media video secara lebih terstruktur dan evaluatif. Dukungan dari pihak sekolah dan pemerintah dalam penyediaan sumber daya dan pelatihan diharapkan dapat mengoptimalkan penggunaan media video, sehingga dapat berkontribusi lebih signifikan dalam meningkatkan kualitas pembelajaran PAI.
