Authors: Tulabandula YNR Sudeshna , Kumar Katuri , Rani Gorivi , Chisty Mohammad , Ravindranath Dhulipalla , Ramanarayan Boyapati
Published: September 2024

Background: Periodontitis is a common inflammatory disease leading to periodontal tissue destruction.
Traditional treatments, including mechanical debridement and systemic antibiotics, often face limitations. Recent interest has focused on alternative therapies like chlorhexidine and tea tree oil, both known for their antimicrobial properties. This study explores their efficacy in managing periodontitis, aiming to enhance treatment outcomes and offer viable adjunctive options.
Material and Methods: In this double-blinded, randomized controlled trial, ten patients with periodontitis underwent scaling and root planing (SRP). In a split-mouth design, one side of the mouth received a subgingival application of 0.2% chlorhexidine gel, while the other side was treated with 5% tea tree oil gel. Clinical parameters, including probing depth and clinical attachment level, were assessed before and after treatment to evaluate the efficacy of each gel in managing periodontal disease
Results: The study revealed significant improvements in probing depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival index (GI), and bleeding on probing (BOP) within each treatment group. However, there were no significant differences between the chlorhexidine and tea tree oil gel treatments.
Conclusion: Both 0.2% chlorhexidine gel and 5% tea tree oil gel significantly improved clinical parameters of periodontitis, including probing depth, clinical attachment level, gingival index, and bleeding on probing.
However, no significant differences were observed between the two treatments, suggesting that tea tree oil gel may be a viable alternative to chlorhexidine in periodontal therapy.

Purpose:Evaluate the diagnostic significance of ultrasound in dentistry and oral and maxillofacial surgery MetodsUpon doing an search across PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Google Schola 62, published were found. 38 of the chosen articles met the requirements for a analysis when inclusion and exclusion were applied.
Results:Ultrasound is a form of real time imaging technique which acts as therapeutic as well as diagnostic aid in dental and medical field. Conventional radiography has certain disadvantages such as cost, radiation etc.These drawbacks of convetional radiography can overcomed by ultrasounds in dentistry. Also, to shift from radiating to non-radiating imaging and repeated imaging have demanded for ultrasonography in dental filed.The main advantages of ultrasound include non-ionizing radiation, portability possibility of repeated examinations and is economical.
Though therapeutic ultrasound in dentistry is still in infancy, its use in treating myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome,temporomandibular joint disorders, sialolitotripsy, descaling, endodontic procedures, ultrasonic cleaning of dentures and in periodontal regeneration techniques are being employed. Standardization of intensities, frequencies, time period of ultrasounds should be standardized to ensure maximum beneficial effects.
Conclusion:Use of ultrasound in dentistry is gradually increasing and will gain even more space if proper research is encouraged. Clinicians should be aware of the advantages of ultrasound in dentistry which include non-invasive, non-ionizing, painless, accurate, patient friendly, which makes it easy as well as interesting. To improve and increase the utilization of ultrasound in dentistry, further studies should be conducted with the goal of achieving better diagnostic and therapeutic aids.
A NOVEL PROTOCOL FOR ENHANCING THE ANTIMICROBIAL EFFICACY OF PLATELET-RICH
FIBRIN: AN IN VITRO STUDY
Authors: Ila Sowmya , Duddukuri Hema , Jammula Surya , Gundapu Mounika , Muralidaran Gayathri , Boyapati Ramanarayana
Published: September 2024

Background: Since its inception, platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has undergone numerous modifications to obtain a biomaterial capable of promoting regeneration. Given its limited antimicrobial activity, research is now being carried out to enhance PRF’s antimicrobial efficacy. In this regard, this study aimed to enhance the antimicrobial
efficacy of PRF by immersing it in antibiotic solutions.
Materials and methods: PRF membranes procured from 10 blood samples were equally divided into 3 parts and allocated into Group I (PRF alone), Group II (PRF immersed in 5mg/ml Tetracycline hydrochloride solution), and Group III (PRF immersed in 12mg/ml Amoxicillin-Potassium clavulanate solution). All samples were tested for antimicrobial efficacy following 24, 48, and 96 hours incubation.
Results: Group I showed no antimicrobial activity. The mean values and standard deviations of zones of inhibition of the groups II and III were 19.5(2.06)mm and 20.8(2.52)mm respectively, following 24 hours of the incubation period. This had slightly declined to 19.1(2.18)mm (Group II) and 20.3(1.94)mm (Group III), after 48 hours.
Bacterial growth was detected in all the groups after 96 hours. The antimicrobial activity differed significantly between groups I & II (P = 0.000) and I & III (P = 0.000) following 24, and 48 hours of incubation periods.
Conclusion: Antibiotic-immersed PRF exhibited improved antimicrobial efficacy sustained for 48 hours. This enhancement could potentially reduce the need for postoperative systemic antibiotics in regenerative procedures by creating a bacteria-free environment. As a result, this method may facilitate uneventful wound healing and desired regeneration while mitigating the adversities of systemic antibiotic therapy.

Authors: Bantu Sherly , Franciska Wira , Mau Hedwig Adianto
Published: September 2024

Online gambling has become increasingly prevalent over a long time due to the ease of access and the ability to play from anywhere with an online association. The reason for this consideration is to look at and analyze the legal provisions against online gambling offenders in Indonesia. The research method used in this study can be a normative legal approach supported by experimental law with graphic depiction. In extension, important information is also used as supporting material for additional information. For control checks, legitimate and standardized check strategies are used. From the search results regarding the legal provisions against the perpetrators of online betting violations in Indonesia, it appears that the legal authority against online betting violations is the criminal sanction against online betting based on Article 45 of Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions, but the punishment for the perpetrators is lower than the threat of criminal sanctions in Article 303 of the Criminal Code, so it does not have an inhibiting impact on the perpetrators of online betting violations. Criminal liability for online betting offenses in Indonesia is the responsibility of the perpetrators of online betting offenses indicated by the existence of criminal offense components. In addition, the activity component is one of the most important components in criminal liability, because a person cannot be sentenced if he does not commit an act that is classified as an act rejected by the law.

TERÖRİZM ÜZERİNE
Authors: Aras Hüseyin
Published: September 2024

Bu çalışma iki ön kabule dayanır. Bunların birincisi “uluslararası sistemin anarşik olduğu”, ikincisi ise “devletlerin menfaat-merkezli aktörler oldukları”dır. Çalışmada bu iki ön kabule dayanarak, devletlerin anarşik uluslararası sistemde menfaatleri gereğince terörizmi desteklemelerinin neredeyse normalleştiği hususunda kuramsal düzlemde bir inceleme yapılmıştır. Bu incelemenin amacı “Terörizme verilen devlet desteği nedeniyle günümüzde terörizm salt bir dış güvenlik meselesi olarak kavramlaştırılabilir mi?” sorusuna cevap üretmektir. Aslında bu soru “terörizmle mücadelenin uluslararasılaştırılması” yaklaşımına karşı bir eleştiri niteliğindedir. Nitekim çalışmanın bu konuda bir tartışma üretmesi umulmaktadır. Çalışmada bu araştırma sorusunun “güç” kavramı temelinde cevaplanması önerilmiştir. Zira uluslararası sistemin meşru aktörleri olan devletlerin gayri meşru aktörler olan terör örgütleriyle iş birliği içerisine girebilmeleri terörizmle mücadelede diğer devletlere mutlak surette güvenilemeyeceğinin çok açık bir göstergesidir. Terörizmi desteklemekten imtina etmeyen devletlerin başka devletlerin terörizmle mücadelesine istekli biçimde katkı vermeyecekleri varsayılmalıdır. Bu halde terörizmle mücadele meselesi uluslararasılaştırıldığında devletler başka devletlerin terörizmle mücadelesine katkı vermeye mecbur bırakılmalıdırlar. Bunun yolu uluslararası alanda güçlü olmaktan geçer. Zayıf devletlerin terörizmle mücadelesi bu nedenle zorluklarla doludur. Ulus-devlet yapısına meydan okunan mevcut uluslararası sistemde zayıf devletler genellikle yalnız aktörlerdir. Bu bakımdan uluslararası anlayışlar ve yaklaşımlar onlar için sakıncalar içerebilir. Zayıf devletler kamu kaynaklarını etkili ve verimli biçimde kullanabilmek için terörizmle mücadele meselesini daha ziyade iç güvenlik meselesi olarak görmelidirler. Ancak meseleyi salt bir iç güvenlik meselesi olarak kurumsallaştırmak da etkili bir strateji olmayabilir. Bu stratejinin de büyük riskleri vardır. Bunun sosyal maliyetleri dikkate alınmalıdır. Terörizmle mücadele devletlerin “kendi ölçeklerinde” ve “kendine yardım” politikalarına değer atfederek yürütülmelidir. Çünkü terörizm küreselleşirken terörizmle mücadelenin de küreselleştiğini ileri sürmeye yetecek kadar kanıtlarımız yok.

Pharmacology of Drugs Acting on Respiratory System
Authors: Gupta Dr. Surya Prakash
Published: September 2024

The pharmacology of drugs acting on the respiratory system encompasses a variety of agents designed to manage and treat respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), allergic rhinitis, and cough. Bronchodilators, including beta-2 agonists, anticholinergics, and methylxanthines, are pivotal in relieving bronchoconstriction by relaxing the smooth muscles of the airways. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as corticosteroids, leukotriene modifiers, and mast cell stabilizers, reduce airway inflammation and prevent exacerbations. Additionally, biologic agents targeting specific inflammatory pathways, like anti-IgE and anti-IL-5 antibodies, offer advanced treatment options for severe asthma. Expectorants and mucolytics facilitate the clearance of mucus, while antitussives suppress the cough reflex. Nasal decongestants alleviate nasal congestion by constricting blood vessels in the nasal mucosa. Respiratory stimulants, on the other hand, enhance the respiratory drive in cases of respiratory depression. Each drug class has a specific mechanism of action, therapeutic use, and potential side effects, making a comprehensive understanding of their pharmacology essential for optimizing respiratory care and improving patient outcomes
Antimalarial Drugs
Authors: Garg Dr. Gopal
Published: September 2024

Antimalarial drugs are medications used to prevent and treat malaria, a life-threatening disease caused by *Plasmodium* parasites transmitted through the bites of infected Anopheles mosquitoes. These drugs target different stages of the parasite's life cycle, including the liver and blood stages. Common antimalarial drugs include chloroquine, quinine, mefloquine, atovaquone-proguanil, and artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs). Chloroquine and mefloquine interfere with the parasite's ability to detoxify heme, a toxic byproduct of hemoglobin digestion. Quinine, a traditional remedy, disrupts the parasite's replication within red blood cells. ACTs, such as artemether-lumefantrine, are highly effective due to the rapid action of artemisinin derivatives combined with a partner drug to prevent resistance. Prophylactic drugs like atovaquone-proguanil and doxycycline are used to prevent infection in travelers to endemic areas. The development of drug resistance, particularly in *Plasmodium falciparum*, poses significant challenges, necessitating ongoing research for new treatments. Effective antimalarial therapy, combined with preventive measures like bed nets and insect repellents, is crucial for controlling and eventually eradicating malaria.
Chemotherapy of Malignancy-II
Authors: Gupta Mrs. Durgesh Kumari
Published: September 2024

Chemotherapy is a pivotal treatment modality in the fight against malignancies, leveraging potent drugs to target and eradicate cancer cells. It operates by disrupting the cellular mechanisms essential for cancer cell proliferation and survival, thereby inhibiting tumor growth. These drugs can be administered orally, intravenously, or through other routes, allowing for flexibility in treatment plans. Chemotherapy regimens are often tailored to the specific type and stage of cancer, with protocols designed to maximize efficacy while minimizing adverse effects. Despite its benefits, chemotherapy is accompanied by a range of side effects due to its impact on rapidly dividing healthy cells, such as those in the bone marrow, gastrointestinal tract, and hair follicles. The choice of chemotherapy agents and their combinations is guided by the cancer's histological characteristics, genetic markers, and the patient's overall health. Advances in pharmacogenomics have enabled more personalized chemotherapy approaches, improving outcomes and reducing toxicity. Chemotherapy can be used as a primary treatment or in conjunction with surgery and radiation therapy, enhancing the overall efficacy of cancer management. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy aims to shrink tumors before surgical intervention, while adjuvant chemotherapy targets residual cancer cells post surgery. Supportive care measures, such as antiemetics, growth factors, and hydration therapy, are critical in managing the side effects and maintaining the patient's quality of life during treatment. Regular monitoring and adjustments to the chemotherapy regimen help mitigate adverse reactions and ensure optimal therapeutic responses. Research continues to evolve, with new chemotherapy agents and combination therapies being developed to overcome resistance and improve survival rates. As a cornerstone of oncology, chemotherapy remains a dynamic and essential component in the comprehensive treatment of malignancies, offering hope and extending lives for many cancer patients.

Antiulcer Agents
Authors: Garg Dr. Gopal
Published: September 2024

Antiulcer agents are essential medications used to manage and treat conditions like peptic ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and other acid-related disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. These agents are classified into several categories based on their mechanisms of action: proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), H2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs), antacids, mucosal protective agents, antibiotics, and prostaglandin analogues. PPIs, such as omeprazole and lansoprazole, work by irreversibly inhibiting the hydrogen-potassium ATPase enzyme, significantly reducing gastric acid secretion. H2RAs, including ranitidine and famotidine, competitively inhibit histamine at H2 receptors, decreasing acid production. Antacids like magnesium hydroxide and calcium carbonate neutralize stomach acid, providing rapid symptomatic relief. Mucosal protective agents, such as sucralfate and bismuth subsalicylate, protect the gastric lining by forming a barrier or coating ulcers. Antibiotics like clarithromycin and amoxicillin are used in combination regimens to eradicate Helicobacter pylori, a common cause of peptic ulcers. Prostaglandin analogues, like misoprostol, enhance mucosal defenses by increasing mucus and bicarbonate secretion. Each of these agents has specific therapeutic uses and potential side effects, making them integral to the effective management of acid-related gastrointestinal conditions.
Drugs for Constipation and Diarrhea

Drugs for managing constipation and diarrhea are crucial in treating gastrointestinal disorders that disrupt normal bowel function. Constipation is commonly treated with laxatives, which are classified into several types based on their mechanisms of action: bulk-forming agents (e.g., psyllium), which increase stool bulk and promote peristalsis; osmotic laxatives (e.g., polyethylene glycol), which draw water into the bowel to soften stools; stimulant laxatives (e.g., bisacodyl), which stimulate intestinal motility; and stool softeners (e.g., docusate), which facilitate the mixing of water and fat with stools. On the other hand, diarrhea is managed with antidiarrheal agents like loperamide, which slows intestinal motility, and bismuth subsalicylate, which reduces inflammation and has antimicrobial properties. Additionally, probiotics can restore normal gut flora, and oral rehydration solutions (ORS) are used to prevent dehydration. Each class of these drugs has specific therapeutic uses and potential side effects, making it essential to tailor treatment based on the underlying cause and severity of the symptoms. Effective management of these conditions can significantly improve patient comfort and health outcomes.
Emetics and Anti-Emetics

Published: September 2024

Emetics and antiemetics are two classes of medications that serve opposite purposes in managing nausea and vomiting. Emetics, such as ipecac syrup, induce vomiting and are used primarily in certain poisoning cases to expel ingested toxins from the stomach. However, their use has declined due to the potential risks and the availability of more effective treatments. Antiemetics, on the other hand, are used to prevent or alleviate nausea and vomiting associated with various conditions, including chemotherapy, postoperative recovery, and motion sickness. These medications are classified based on their mechanisms of action, including serotonin (5-HT3) receptor antagonists like ondansetron, dopamine antagonists like metoclopramide, antihistamines like diphenhydramine, and anticholinergics like scopolamine. Each class targets different pathways involved in the vomiting reflex, providing comprehensive management options for different causes of nausea. Understanding the pharmacology, therapeutic uses, and potential side effects of emetics and antiemetics is essential for effective and safe treatment of nausea and vomiting, enhancing patient comfort and outcomes in various clinical scenarios
Antitubercular Agents

Antitubercular agents are medications used to treat tuberculosis (TB), a serious infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. These agents are categorized into first-line and second-line drugs based on their efficacy, toxicity, and role in TB treatment regimens. First-line antitubercular drugs, such as isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol, are the cornerstone of TB therapy due to their high potency and relative safety. These drugs are usually administered in combination to prevent the development of drug resistance and to effectively eradicate the bacteria. Treatment typically lasts for at least six months, with an initial intensive phase followed by a continuation phase. Second-line drugs, including fluoroquinolones and injectable agents like amikacin, are used when the first-line drugs are ineffective due to resistance or intolerance. The prolonged duration and complexity of TB treatment can lead to challenges with patient adherence, which is critical for preventing the spread of resistant TB strains. Advances in TB research aim to shorten treatment duration, improve drug efficacy, and reduce side effects. Additionally, public health strategies, including Directly Observed Therapy (DOT), are implemented to ensure compliance and successful treatment outcomes.

Cayenne peppers are high in nutritional value, antioxidant properties but highly perishable like any other fresh fruits and vegetables. Fresh pepper is highly perishable and deteriorates within a few days after harvest without proper storage or preservation measures. The economic importance of Cayenne peppers is remarkable. In addition, their perishability is high and their added-value is low. Thus, it is important to find ways to improve their shelf life and add value to the crop. Therefore, there is need to study the processing of cayenne pepper into value added product such as Jam. Fresh cayenne peppers was sorted, washed, sliced into smaller sizes and homogenized. The homogenized pulp was heated, sweetners, pectin was added and jam was produced. The produced jam was subjected to physiochemical, texture and sensory evaluation. All data obtained was subjected to statistical analysis using Analysis of variance ANOVA. The results showed that the physiochemical composition of cayenne pepper ranged from 12.76 to 12.89 ˚Brix, 121.28 to 122.11 mg/100g; 2.85 to 2.49mg/100g; 0.31 to 0.39%; 47.35 to 49.17%; 97.67 to 111.67 for   total soluble solid (TSS), vitamin C, carotenoid, total titrable acidity, DPPH and phenolic, respectively.  The texture ranged from 0.27 to 3.93; 0.78 to 0.94; 1.56 to 9.11; 0.29 to 1.54; 0.38 to 0.89; 0.15 to 0.36; 0.42 to 1.11; 0.01 to 0.03; 15.18 to 15.25 for Hardness, springiness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewiness, fracturability, gumminess, energy to peak and springiness, respectively. Yoruba pepper jam with date were well accepted among the samples in terms of all the attributes (colour, aroma, firmness, gelatinous, taste, mouthfeel and overall acceptability), followed by hausa pepper jam with date, yoruba pepper jam with sugar and hausa pepper jam with sugar. It could be deduced from the results that the present study that production of jam using different sweeteners (date and sugar) and from different varieties of cayenne pepper (Yoruba and Hausa) has great potentials. Yoruba cayenne pepper had better TSS, vitamin C, carotenoids, TTA and total phenol. All the sensory attributes indicated that the jam blends were well acceptable to the consumers especially the colour, aroma, firmness, gelatinous, taste, mouthfeel and overall acceptability but cayenne Hausa (sugar and date) had the best sensory attributes but yoruba pepper jam with date were well accepted among the samples in terms of all the attributes (colour, aroma, firmness, gelatinous, taste, mouthfeel and overall acceptability), followed by hausa pepper jam with date, yoruba pepper jam with sugar and hausa pepper jam with sugar. Processing of cayenne pepper into jam using different sweeteners will help in reducing post-harvest losses of the pepper and also enhance the utilization potential of the pepper.
Vaping and Orthopedic Surgery: Perioperative Management

The growing use of electronic cigarettes (ECs) as a perceived safer alternative to traditional combustible smoking has significant implications for orthopedic surgery patients. Surgeons need to recognize the harms and risks associated with ECs beyond their nicotine content. EC aerosols contain cytotoxic elements, including harmful chemicals, carcinogens, heavy metals, and flavoring agents. They can induce oxidative stress, resulting from an imbalance between cell antioxidant defense and reactive oxygen species (ROS). These effects can compromise bone repair, particularly with skeletal system disorders. Furthermore, ECs’ impact on wound healing and surgical site infection (SSI) have been well-documented. Smoking can reduce the inflammatory healing response, impair oxidative bacterial killing mechanisms, delay the proliferation healing response, and alter collagen metabolism. Some surgical practices remain unchanged despite physicians’ efforts to inquire about EC use. Most orthopedic surgeons do not delay surgery due to nicotine consumption, and urine tests for nicotine are rarely used. However, preoperative smoking cessation interventions offer a unique opportunity to help patients stop consuming nicotine. Therefore, it is crucial for orthopedic surgeons to understand the harms of ECs and communicate the associated risks to patients.
