Co-relation of Vitamin D and senile osteoporosis in relation to dental implant
Authors: Raheja Rosy
Published: May 2024

In the past few years, the prosthodontic educational and research focus evolved beyond traditional therapeutic approaches. This progress resulted from three major initiatives. First, materials research has simplified impression-making protocol and denture relining technique. Second, improved understanding of the role and particularly the limitations of mechanical analogs for the masticatory system (i.e., articulators). The third initiative, and the major research and educational catalyst, has been the technique of osseointegration, which has had a profound impact on research and education in virtually all our clinical endeavors. As a result, the consequences of an aging edentulous environment or a terminal dentition have been more successfully addressed than ever before and many clinicians even began to forecast the demise of the complete denture technique. Thankfully though, the initial euphoria resulting from the availability of implant-supported solutions has now ablated, and a more realistic assessment has emerged. In this article, emphasis more on correlation of senile osteoporosis and role of Vitamin D in relation to the success of oral implantology.

Published: May 2024

Dental implants require healthy bone for successful osseointegration. However, bone health can become compromised by aging and/or the presence of underlying medical conditions. The severity and complications associated with these medical conditions usually indicate that they require medication for successful management. Some of these medications may undoubtedly exert effects on bone through direct or indirect mechanisms and, therefore, may also affect osseointegration. These include antihypertensive drugs, oral hypoglycemic agents/insulin, hormones (corticosteroid, thyroxin, and tamoxifen), and anti-resorptive agents including bisphosphonates and anti-angiogenic agents. Part two of this paper reviews the current knowledge regarding the effects of corticosteroids, thyroxin, and tamoxifen on the outcome of implant therapy.
Pontic site development by modified vascularized interpositional periosteal-connective tissue graft
Authors: Farooqui Arifa Areej , Tarun Kumar A B , Triveni M G , Shah Rucha
Published: May 2024

Ridge resorption is unavoidable sequelae of tooth extraction, which leads to soft and hard tissue deficiencies and formation of black triangles. Pedicled grafts inherently have advantage of intact vascular supply over free conventional grafts. A vascularized interpositional periosteal-connective tissue (VIP-CT) graft comprises pedicled connective tissue which is rotated anteriorly to the recipient site. It maintains intact vascular supply thus minimizes chances of graft necrosis and the amount of graft shrinkage. The objective of this case series was to achieve stable, esthetically pleasing pontic site using VIP-CT graft in the anterior maxillary region. In the present case series, the pontic site was developed successfully in three patients having ridge deficiency using a modified approach of VIP-CT. After soft-tissue augmentation, the site was altered by placing a cantilevered provisional ovate pontic. Once the emergence profile had achieved by molding the grafted area, permanent restoration using the adjacent implant as an abutment was delivered to patient. Esthetically pleasing anterior restorations, satisfying the patient's esthetic demands were obtained, and results were found stable up to a period of 9–24 months and thus can be concluded that modified VIP-CT is a predictable approach in anterior esthetic areas to enhance the emergence profile.

Published: May 2024

Background:

Excessive screen time exposure amongst children has become a global concern due to its detrimental effects on health and development. Understanding the prevalence and associated risk factors is crucial for designing effective interventions. This study aimed to estimate screen exposure time and identify associated risk factors amongst children aged 6 months–6 years in Akola district, India.

Materials and Methods:

A descriptive facility based study was conducted in Akola district, utilising data collected from two outpatient departments. Data were collected through interviews with mothers using a pre-designed questionnaire. Sociodemographic factors and screen time habits were assessed. Statistical analyses, including multivariate regression, were performed to identify significant predictors of screen exposure time.

Results:

Of the 417 children included in the study, 53.7% had excess screen exposure, with an average screen time of 1.6 h. Infants under 1 year had notably high exposure rates (95.1%). Maternal and paternal education, maternal occupation and child’s behaviour (throwing tantrums) were significantly associated with screen exposure time.

Conclusions:

The findings highlight the urgent need for public health interventions to address excessive screen time amongst young children in Akola district of India. Efforts should focus on raising parental awareness, promoting healthier screen time practices and encouraging outdoor activities. Further research is recommended to assess the impact of interventions and the evolving screen time patterns, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Authors: Rosal Ma. Sherlita S. , Bitacura Jayzon G.
Published: May 2024

The Gracious Sea Urchin Tripneustes gratilla is a model organism for invertebrate marine animals and an economically important marine resource. This study investigated the effects of varying temperature ranges 29-30°C, 34-35°C, and 39-40°C on the reproductive capacity of T. gratilla. Under these temperature treatments, gamete viability was determined through the resazurin reduction test and quantified through resazurin absorbance at 630 nm, while fertilization and embryonic development were investigated through in vitro experiments. With increasing temperature, there was a significant decline in the viability of both sperm and egg cells. Gamete death was highest at 39-40°C followed by 34-35°C temperature ranges. Successful fertilization was highest at 29-30°C (92.26%) followed by 34-35°C (20.83%) and 39-40°C (11.05%) temperature ranges for the two batches. Normal embryonic development from 2 cells up to 2 arm echinopluteus was observed at 29-30 °C while abnormalities including apoptotic body formations, cell fragmentation, cell lysis, and embryo arrest were observed at 34-35°C and 39-40°C temperature ranges. This study confirmed the deleterious effect of increased temperature (34-40°C) on the reproductive potential of T. gratilla.

Published: May 2024

This study addresses the global threat posed by the White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) to the aquaculture sector, causing substantial economic losses and impacting food security. The research explores a novel strategy using plant metabolites with proven antiviral properties as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional chemical treatments. Employing molecular docking and several bioinformatics tools, 63 plant metabolites are screened for their potential to inhibit WSSV. Hyperoside, Quercetin, and Rutin emerge as top candidates, demonstrating the highest binding affinities with crucial viral proteins. The investigation focuses the molecular interactions between these plant metabolites and WSSV, identifying binding sites and drug surface hotspots. Biological property analysis confirms the suitability of these compounds as WSSV inhibitors without adverse effects. The study not only offers a promising environmentally friendly approach to combat WSSV but also contributes valuable insights into natural product-based antiviral therapies in aquaculture. By unveiling the potential of plant metabolites, this research lays the foundation for innovative strategies to protect global aquaculture and mitigate viral diseases in diverse aquaculture settings. Further experimental verification through in vitro and in vivo studies is strongly recommended to validate these encouraging findings.
Interpolation and moduli spaces of vector bundles on very general blowups of the projective plane
Authors: Coskun Izzet , Huizenga Jack
Published: May 2024

In this paper, we study certain moduli spaces of vector bundles on the blowup of the projective plane in at least 10 very general points. Moduli spaces of sheaves on general type surfaces may be nonreduced, reducible and even disconnected. In contrast, moduli spaces of sheaves on minimal rational surfaces and certain del Pezzo surfaces are irreducible and smooth along the locus of stable bundles. We find examples of moduli spaces of vector bundles on more general blowups of the projective plane that are disconnected and have components of different dimensions. In fact, assuming the SHGH Conjecture, we can find moduli spaces with arbitrarily many components of arbitrarily large dimension.

Authors: OLĂRESCU Valentina , DICU Adriana
Published: May 2024

This article delves into the psychological literature concerning divorce and its impact on the personality development of preadolescents aged 9-12. Researchers in this field emphasize the significant role of family and socio-cultural environments in shaping a child’s personality, considering personality as a system embedded within a matrix of socio-cultural systems. The Millon Pre-Adolescent Clinical Inventory (MPACI) test was employed to identify personality disorders among preadolescents affected by parental separation. The underlying hypothesis posits that preadolescents with divorced parents would exhibit personality disorders, and significant differences would emerge in the personality patterns between preadolescents from divorced families and those from intact families. Statistical analysis of the results corroborated this hypothesis, shedding light on the nuanced effects of divorce on preadolescent personality development.

Published: May 2024

Studi ini bertujuan untuk menginvestigasi pengaruh dari audit tenure, rotasi audit, dan ukuran Kantor Akuntan Publik (KAP) terhadap kualitas audit, dengan mempertimbangkan fee audit sebagai variabel moderasi. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan data dari perusahaan-perusahaan yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia (BEI). Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah regresi linear berganda dengan pendekatan model hierarkis. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa audit tenure memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap kualitas audit, dengan adanya indikasi bahwa semakin lama periode audit, semakin berkurangnya kualitas audit yang dilakukan. Selain itu, rotasi audit juga terbukti berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kualitas audit, menunjukkan bahwa perputaran auditor dapat meningkatkan kualitas audit dengan membawa ide-ide segar dan sudut pandang baru. Namun, ukuran Kantor Akuntan Publik (KAP) tidak memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap kualitas audit. Variabel moderasi, fee audit, ternyata secara signifikan memoderasi hubungan antara audit tenure dan kualitas audit. Ini menunjukkan bahwa tingkat fee audit dapat mempengaruhi sejauh mana pengaruh audit tenure terhadap kualitas audit. Hasil ini memberikan pemahaman lebih lanjut tentang faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi kualitas audit dan implikasinya dalam praktik audit serta regulasi yang berkaitan. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi penting bagi praktisi audit, regulator, dan peneliti dalam memahami dinamika antara variabel-variabel yang memengaruhi kualitas audit, sehingga dapat membantu dalam meningkatkan efektivitas dan efisiensi audit di masa mendatang. Selain itu, temuan ini juga memberikan wawasan kepada pihak-pihak yang terlibat dalam pengambilan keputusan terkait dengan pemilihan auditor dan kebijakan rotasi audit. Dengan mengetahui bahwa audit tenure dan rotasi audit memengaruhi kualitas audit, perusahaan dapat mempertimbangkan strategi yang tepat untuk memastikan bahwa audit mereka dilakukan dengan tingkat kualitas yang optimal. Implikasi praktis dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa perusahaan harus mempertimbangkan secara cermat manfaat dan risiko dari periode audit yang terlalu panjang, serta keputusan untuk melakukan rotasi auditor. Sementara itu, Kantor Akuntan Publik (KAP) dapat mempertimbangkan upaya untuk meningkatkan kualitas audit mereka melalui pengembangan sumber daya manusia dan peningkatan praktik audit. Secara metodologis, penelitian ini menawarkan pendekatan yang holistik dalam mempertimbangkan faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi kualitas audit, serta memperkenalkan variabel moderasi yang belum banyak dieksplorasi sebelumnya dalam konteks ini. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini dapat menjadi landasan untuk penelitian lanjutan yang lebih mendalam tentang faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi kualitas audit

Published: May 2024

The composition of regional products according to economic sectors may generally reveal a region’s economic structure, therefore the number of workers employed in the economic sector can be interpreted as an indicator of the economic sector’s workforce absorption potential. The purpose of this study is to identify and assess determinants of labor demand (open unemployment, Human Development Index (HDI), and minimum wage) in the islands, specifically Maluku Province which consists of 11 regencies / cities. This study employed a descriptive-quantitative method, employing a multiple linear regression analysis. The results show that the open unemployment, HDI, and minimum wage have a negative and insignificant impact on the labor demand in the islands. In fact, labor demand issues in the islands were more complex than in continental areas, such as regional egocentrism, which expected the “local community youth” to have priority in the labor demand yet they had no skill mastery. As a result, investing in education through “specialization” of labor was predicted to be critical to the labor absorption.

Its diagnosis is based on findings such as deep intertrabecular recesses or sinusoids and ventricular trabeculations communicating with the left ventricular cavity.
