Published: May 2022

Aims: The study aimed to compare the scanning electron microscopic gradings of the endothelium and calcium depositions between proximal, under-bridging, distal, and control segments of the coronary artery with myocardial bridge (MB).

Methods: The autopsy of 45 adult hearts with MB among the 243 cases was collected from North Okkalapa General and Teaching Hospital, Yangon. Then, the length and thickness of the MB were measured. The endothelial gradings and elements composition of each specimen was examined by a scanning electron microscope (Phenom Pro X) with energy dispersion X-ray spectrometry (EDS) operated at 15 kV.

Results: In the present study, 45 bridges (18.5%) were observed among the 243 hearts. They were located on the left anterior descending artery (LAD) in all cases (100%). The mean length of the MB was 18.3 ± 11.7 mm (range 1.5–59 mm). The mean thickness of the MB was 2.8 ± 1.5 mm (range 1–6.3 mm). In comparing endothelial cell gradings and calcium deposition of four segments, the proximal segment was significantly different from the under-bridging segment, distal segment, and control segment. The under-bridging segment was significantly different gradings from the distal segment (p less than 0.05).

Conclusion: The proximal segment was the most endothelial damage site due to hemodynamic effect of the MB. The under-bridging segment was the least endothelial damage site which might be due to the atheroprotective effect of the MB in under segment.

Published: May 2022

Due to the rapid and exponential development of spatial databases, traditional spatial relationships and its co-locating measures have become inaccurate and inefficient. Many different spatial co-locating algorithms have been tried to detect nearest neighbor patterns within limited datasets in order to evaluate their spatial patterns. Finding co-locating patterns using skyline computational models is one of the active research areas on large spatial databases. However, most of the conventional spatial skyline co-locating models require high computational memory and time on large spatial databases.  Another limitation with traditional skyline models is finding the filtered candidate sets in the local and skyline computational models. In order to improve the accuracy of the traditional skyline models, a hybrid parallel filter based skyline model is developed on the large spatial databases to optimize data filtering along with ranking process. Experimental results describes the efficiency of proposed model on conventional skyline computational models on large databases.

Published: May 2022

Background & Objective - Menopause is the permanent cessation of menstrual periods, whether occurs naturally or induced by surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation. It is accompanied by hormonal changes, predominantly decrease in estrogen and androgen levels. Females experience varying oral symptoms that may result from endocrine disturbances, multiple vitamin and mineral deficiencies and psychological dynamics during their menopausal years. Main oral symptoms associated during menopause include xerostomia, burning mouth and altered taste perception. Xerostomia leads to change in salivary pH thereby increasing the risk for oral diseases including periodontal diseases. Saliva contributes to maintenance of the oral pH by neutralizing acids from food and beverages, as well as from bacterial activity, thereby reducing the risk of periodontal disease. After menopause, reduced salivary ﬂow rate and low pH may make females prone to oral health problems. Hence, the main goal of this study is toevaluate and compare the periodontal health status in post-menopausal females with and without xerostomia. Methodology-A total of 204 post-menopausal have been observed and their oral & periodontal status data was analyzed & interpreted.Result & Conclusion- Post-menopausal females with xerostomia were observed to have poor oral hygiene and severe periodontitis in comparison to non- xerostomia group.

Introduction: The world is in the midst of a COVID-19 pandemic. As WHO and partners work together on the response -- tracking the pandemic, advising on critical interventions, distributing vital medical supplies to those in need--- they are racing to develop and deploy safe and effective vaccines. COVID-19 can have serious, life-threatening complications. Current evidence suggests that re infection with the virus that causes COVID-19 is uncommon in the 90 days after initial infection. However, experts don’t know for sure how long this protection lasts, and the risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19 far outweighs any benefits of natural immunity. COVID-19 vaccination will help protect you by creating an antibody (immune system) response without having to experience sickness. Vaccines will work with your immune system so it will be ready to fight the virus if you are exposed.  The combination of getting vaccinated and following CDC’s recommendations to protect yourself and others will offer the best protection from COVID-19. Statement Of The Problem: “A descriptive study to assess the knowledge, attitude and belief regarding covid vaccine among non teaching staff working in SGT University, Gurugram.” Method: Research approach used was the quantitative, a descriptive design was used.

comprehensive review on influence of protein and sodium on liver cirrhosis
Authors: Chahal Manparvesh Singh , Rana Reenu
Published: May 2022

Cirrhosis of the liver is linked to considerable nutritional concerns, leading to severe hepatic consequences and low survivorship. Nutrition is a vital role yet underappreciated component of cirrhosis treatment. As a result, the goals of this study are to determine the associated dietary risks with its pathophysiology to support dietary guidelines for this population of patients. Even in the phase of the disease, alterations in substrate utilization for the production of energy are a common hallmark of liver cirrhosis, resulting in increased breakdown of protein reserves and a tendency to protein-energy malnutrition. Taking supplements with branched-chain amino acid residues has shown promising results in lowering cirrhosis-related complications, but it currently limits gastrointestinal disorders and poor palatability. Furthermore, more significant research into dietary modulation of branched-chain amino acids is needed. Finally, a vital result of this study is the need to enhance the type and effectiveness of diet intervention programs for patients with cirrhosis, precisely when partial or entire food sources are used. To summarize, nutritional treatment of cirrhosis is not a one-size-fits-all solution, but it should be incorporated early in the therapy algorithms to enhance clinical cirrhosis prognosis.

Published: May 2022

Objective: This trial was conducted to compare between autogenous fresh tooth graft with/without platelet rich fibrin around immediate dental implant. Patients and methods: This controlled randomized clinical trial was carried out on 12 patients over the age of 18 who required dental extractions of single- or multi-rooted teeth, who were also delayed candidates for osseointegrated implants. They were equally divided into two groups; group (1): Autogenous fresh tooth graft around immediate dental implant placement with platelet rich fibrin and group (2): Autogenous fresh tooth graft around immediate dental implant placement without platelet rich fibrin. Results: The mean value of horizontal bone loss in group (1) and group (2) at 6 months 0.077 (0.065 -0.130) and 0.595 (0.450 - 0.690) respectively with statistical significant differences between two groups. While vertical bone loss in group(1) and group(2) at 6 months (0.510(0.480 -0.530) and (1.490(1.400  - 1.640) respectively with statistical significant differences between two groups. The mean value of  implant stability quotient for group (2) at 3 months was 70.50 ± 3.56 ISQ, and increased to 77.67 ± 5.61 ISQ at 6 months, which was statistically significant.

Published: May 2022

Objectives: Superficial femoral artery (SFA) endovascular intervention procedures are one of the most common peripheral artery interventions (PAI) in the lower extremities around the world. Chronic total occlusions (CTO) are extremely common in this vascular bed, accounting for approximately 40–50% of all lesions treated. One of the most crucial decisions an operator must make for a good chronic total occlusion (CTO) recanalization is selecting the right catheter vascular access site. Methods: A prospective, cohort, study conducted on 30 patients to evaluate the safety and efficacy of different strategies for crossing the chronic total occlusion of superficial femoral artery. Results: There was statistically significant difference found between crossing techniques regarding DM and combined DM and dyslipidemia. Conclusion: Correlation of CTOP classification with larger sample size may show importance and improve crossing strategies.
A study of eco-critical perspectives A River Sutra by Gita Mehta
Authors: Yahya Amani Akram
Published: May 2022

Gita Mehta is the brightest of the shining lights in the constellation of Indian authors. Her works are written from an Indian viewpoint and explore the tensions that arise from east-west interactions. Her work A River Sutra is a vivid fictional portrayal of India that reflects the country's history and culture. It ties together Indian mythology and many images of love in all its forms. It was narrated through the eyes of a pen-pusher and his meeting with six pilgrims on Narmada's banks. In Western feminist studies, the woman is always depicted as seeking liberation from the oppressive urban culture and returning to nature. It's intriguing to see how this notion takes on new meaning in a different cultural situation. Mehta's attention in this novel has switched from connections between India and the west to the diversity of cultures within India. The Narmada serves as the connecting thread between the main plot and the six sub-stories, according to Gita Mehta. The current study delves into the idea of eco-criticism and seeks to clarify concepts like green studies and environmental studies, as well as outline the numerous subfields of eco-criticism, such as Cultural ecology, Eco-feminism, and Gyno-Ecology, in great depth.

Published: May 2022

Recurrent pneumonia may develop into severe pneumonia. Many evidences showing that vitamin D supplementation can reduce the risk of pneumonia, but the results are not yet definitive. We aim to investigate and determine the effect of vitamin D supplementation on the incidence of recurrent pneumonia in children. Data sources published were searched from PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct, Scopus, and clinicaltrial.gov up to December 2021. This review included the Randomized controlled trials (RCT) study which compare vitamin D supplementation with placebo and/or non-intervention in children with pneumonia under 18-years-old. We used Risk of Bias (RoB) 2 tools to assessed the risk of bias. The results are combined with a random effect or fixed-effect model, and sensitivity analysis was conducted to explore potential factors. Seven RCT studies with a total of 1852 participants met the eligibility criteria. There was a positive correlation between vitamin D supplementation and the incidence of recurrent pneumonia (RR 0.59; 95% Confidence Interval 0.40 – 0.89), with a combined effect of 2.52. The heterogeneity test was 77%. The results were statistically significant with a p-value of 0.01. Vitamin D supplementation may reduce the incidence of recurrent pneumonia in children and be considered an additional therapy.

Obesity and various other pathologies increase postural instability which will lead to the risk of falling. Several anthropometric measurements (height and weight) showed a significant effect on postural stability. This study examines the effects of the telerehabilitated Weight Bearing Exercise for Better Balance (WEBB) program on balance and walking speed in obese men. Ten adult males with grade 2 obesity participated in this study and received a telerehabilitative WEBB exercise intervention 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Static and dynamic balance were assessed by the One Leg Stance test (OLS) and Four Square Step Test (FSST), while walking speed was assessed by the 10 Meter Walk Test (10MWT). The study found that there was a significant improvement in both leg static balance (p=0.005; p=0,003), dynamic balance (p=0.005), and walking speed (p=0.00) in obese male subjects. In conclusion, the WEBB program in telerehabilitation can significantly improve balance and walking speed in obese men.

Monte Carlo-based scatter modeling in SPECT has demonstrated the ability on improving image quality and quantitative accuracy but high computational cost. In this study, we describe a deep learning method based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) to increase the image quality, decrease the computation time for SPECT/CT reconstruction. Monte Carlo (MC) simulation and true scatter data are used for training and validation phase and the CNN network is trained to match the MC scatter estimation. In the testing step with a liver subject, visual image quality by CNN was better than MC scatter estimation method. Besides, the CNN scatter estimate was generated over a much shorter period of time than MC model (about 15 seconds for CNN vs ~2 hours for MC). The short processing time with CNN while maintaining quality has high clinical significance for quantitative SPECT imaging.
