Objectives:
Previous studies have reported that articulatory dysfunction accompanied by a certain type of malocclusion can be improved by orthodontic treatment. We developed a 3-T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) movie method with tooth visualization that can display the dynamic movement of articulation without radiation exposure. To the best of our knowledge, there is currently no report on the possible differences in articulatory movement between subjects with a normal occlusion and those with malocclusion using the 3T MRI movie method. Thus, the objective of this study was to examine the articulatory difference between subjects with a normal occlusion and those with an open bite using an MRI movie.

Materials and Methods:
Twenty healthy adult females, ten with a normal occlusion and ten with an anterior open bite were recruited. The overbite of the open bite subjects was zero or smaller, and all of them exhibited a tongue-thrusting habit during swallowing. A turbo spin echo image with a contrast medium was used to visualize the anterior teeth, and articulatory movement during articulation of the vowel-consonant-vowel syllable (/asa/) was scanned. The difference in tongue movement between subjects with a normal occlusion and those with an open bite was compared by measuring seven variables. Moreover, the distance between the incisal edge and the tongue apex during articulation of /s/ and the speech duration were compared. Furthermore, frequency analysis on /s/ by fast Fourier transform power spectrum was performed.

Results:
The tongue apex of the open bite subjects moved more anteriorly than that of the normal subjects. However, there was no significant difference in the phonetic analysis between subjects with a normal occlusion and those with an open bite.

Conclusion:
The 3-T MRI movie was an efficient method to quantify articulatory tongue movements. Although there was a difference in tongue movement during swallowing between subjects with a normal occlusion and those with an open bite, the difference in the articulatory tongue movements was minimal, suggesting it could be a functional compensation.

Published: April 2021

With regard to the environmental aspect it would be very interesting if natural fibers like banana, jute, and coir could be used instead of artificial fibers and synthetic products as reinforcement in some applications. Banana .Natural fibers have many advantages compared to other man made fibers. The natural fiber composites may be used in everyday applications such as lampshades, suitcases, paperweight, helmets, shower and bath units. Polypropylene composites were fabricated with untreated and alkali treated jute fiber with 10-25% loading of fiber by weight and were designated at Polypropylene Banana Composite (PPBC). The composites of biodegradable Polypropylene (PP) reinforced with short jute natural fiber was prepared by melt mixing followed by hot press molding. The micro structural analysis and morphologies of the composites were studied via infrared spectroscopy (IR) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques respectively. The extensive application of infrared spectroscopy is mainly due to the concept of group vibration. Any structural change like substitution or addition of groups or atoms in a molecule affects the relative mode of vibration of the group. This causes change in IR spectral band position, change in relative intensities and appearance of new bands and disappearance of any band and splitting of a single band into two or more bands. Infrared spectroscopy can also be used to increase the utility of fiber. It deals with the interaction of infrared light with matter. The former can indicate the presence of functional groups qualitatively and the latter can provide a semi quantitative measure of their concentrations. Electron Microscopy is most widely used to obtain information regarding the morphology of fiber surfaces, especially SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy). Using SEM, it is easy to determine the differences of fiber surface topography after and before treatment, and hence the formation of fiber polymer composites. Fiber deboning was also observed for untreated and treated fiber pp matrix composite. It reveals that bonding between the fiber and the matrix at the interface may be improved. These indicate that there are some kinds of interfacial contact between fiber and pp matrix due to fiber treatment. The SEM can have a magnification range from a few times to several hundred thousand times.

Published: April 2021

In an operating system, disk scheduling is the process of managing the I/O request to the secondary storage devices such as hard disk. The speed of the processor and primary memory has increased in a rapid way than the secondary storage. Seek time is the important factor in an operating system to get the best access time. For the better performance, speedy servicing of I/O request for secondary memory is very important. The goal of the disk-scheduling algorithm is to minimize the response time and maximize throughput of the system.
This work analyzed and compared various basic disk scheduling techniques like First Come First Serve (FCFS), Shortest Seek Time First (SSTF), SCAN, LOOK, Circular SCAN (C-SCAN) and Circular LOOK (C-LOOK) along with the corresponding seek time. From the comparative analysis, the result show that C-LOOK algorithm give the least head movement and seek time in different cases as compared to other algorithm. Therefore, it maximizes the throughput for the storage devices.
Outcome of Non-drainage Scleral Buckling in Primary Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment
Authors: Agarwal Lalit , Agrawal Nisha 
Published: April 2021

Introduction: Scleral buckling (SB) was the principal surgical intervention for patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) until the development of pars plana vitrectomy. The study aims to evaluate the outcome of SB without subretinal fluid (SRF) drainage in RRD.
Materials and methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary eye care center. Charts of patients operated with SB without SRF drainage for RRD between January 2014 and December 2015 were evaluated. The main outcome measure was the primary reattachment rate at 1 month after single SB surgery. Other outcome measures were final reattachment rate after further intervention, visual improvement and relation of various parameters with retinal reattachment.
Results: One hundred and seventeen patients were included of which 90 (76.9%) were men. Mean age was 26.68±12.6 years (Range 9-60). All eyes were phakic. Only 1 patient had a macula on RD. The primary reattachment rate was 84.6% (n=99). Mean LogMAR (±SD) visual acuity (VA) improved from 1.92(±0.46) to 1.02(±0.42). Extent of RD, number of breaks, and type of break was found to have no association with retinal reattachment. Association between type of PVR and status of retina post buckling was found to be significant (p=0.026) with retinal reattachment seen in 100% in PVR-A and only 60% in PVR-C2. Final reattachment rate was 98.2%. Complications encountered were postoperative diplopia (n=1), suture granuloma (n=1) and buckle infection (n=2).
Conclusion: Scleral buckling without SRF drainage, an exclusively extra ocular procedure, is an effective and safe treatment modality for non-complicated RRD.

Background: This study aims to assess dry eye indices following cataract surgery.
Materials and Methods: A single center descriptive and comparative study was performed. A total of 100 eyes of 100 cases fulfilling the inclusion criteria from 1st June 2017 to 30th May 2018 were enrolled. Out of 100 eyes, 50 eyes each went through manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) and phacoemulsification respectively. For objective analysis : schirmer 1 test(ST-I), tear breakup Time(TBUT) along with lissamine Green Surface Staining(LGSS) was performed on pre-operative day, 1st, 4th and 12th week respectively. Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) was done for subjective analysis on pre-operative day and at 12th week.
Results: The mean age of the patient was 53.66 ± 7.839 years with 34 (68%) being female in a small incision cataract surgery group. In the phacoemulsification group, mean age was 54.72 ± 7.985 years and 32 (64%) were female. On analyzing the objective dry eye indices: ST-I,TBUT and LGSS at 12thweek was 18.80 ± 7.393 mm, 11.30 ± 5.456 seconds and 1.62 ± 1.193 in Small incision cataract surgery group and 27.10 ± 6.326 mm, 16.60 ± 4.699 seconds and 0.38 ± 0.602 in Phacoemulsification group respectively which was statistically significant. (p< 0.001).
Conclusion: Regardless of the type of cataract surgery, dry eye disease is unavoidable affecting both tear quality and quantity postoperatively. In our study, phacoemulsification had lesser effect in dry eye indices than small incision cataract surgery.
(Mis)representation of Nepali Culture in The Guru of Love
Authors: Kandel Bhanu Bhakta Sharma 
Published: April 2021

Samrat Upadhyay’s The Guru of Love has (mis)represented Nepali culture, society and thoughts from Western perspective. The writer has applied Western standards of life
to represent Orient culture and society where he seems to have misguided somewhere. He has mentioned in the novel that Easterners have suffered from inferior thoughts and practices, the society has slavish mind-set regarding gender issues and sexual psychology, the society is poverty-stricken and it is full of the people with corrupt mind. The novel explains that females have been victimized from males’ domination practicing sexual violence, harassment and gender discrimination and dominance.
Upadhayay has discussed about his birth place, cultures, society, language, religion, relatives, illicit sexual relation and political chaos which has helped to create a ‘discourse’ about Nepali society. The article argues how the novelist has (mis) represented the Nepai culture by discussing socio-cultural practices and it analyzes how it has tried to serve the palate of the Western readership.
Use of Radium223 in metastatic prostate cancer patient in treatment with denosumab: a potential trigger for Osteonecrosis of the jaw? A case report.
Authors: Pavese Francesco , Rotondaro Silvia 
Published: April 2021

Radium-223 dichloride (Ra223) is an alpha-emitting radiopharmaceutical agent approved for the treatment of patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) with symptomatic bone metastases. Denosumab, a human monoclonal antibody targeting the key bone resorption mediator RANKL, has shown to reduce the risk of skeletal-related events in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors. Osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ) is an important potential adverse event associated with the use of denosumab or other bone health agents (BHA) like bisphosphonates. In a phase III study conducted to investigate safety and efficacy of Ra223, ONJ was reported in 0.67% of patients treated with Ra223 and in 0.33% of patients who received placebo; however, all patients with ONJ were also exposed to prior or concomitant BHA. Furthermore, denosumab has been associated with prolonged survival in patients treated with Ra223, and a BHA therapy should be considered during Ra223 treatment in order to prevent Ra223 induced bone fractures. Considering that background, we report the case of a 67-year-old man with metastatic CRPC already exposed for almost 4 years to denosumab, who developed ONJ during concomitant Ra223 therapy. Despite contrasting findings in real life experiences, our case suggests to carry out a close monitoring of oral health in patients receiving Ra223 with previous long exposure to denosumab.
