AbstractMany aspects of attention decline with aging. There is a current debate on how aging also affects sustained attention. In this study, we contribute to this debate by meta-analytically comparing performance on the go/no-go Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART) in younger and older adults. We included only studies in which the SART had a low proportion of no-go trials (5%–30%), there was a random or quasirandom stimulus presentation, and data on both healthy younger and older adults were available. A total of 12 studies were suitable with 832 younger adults and 690 older adults. Results showed that older adults were slower than younger adults on go trials (g= 1, 95% CI [.72, 1.27]) and more accurate than younger adults on no-go trials (g= .59, 95% CI [.32, .85]). Moreover, older adults were slower after a no-go error than younger adults (g= .79, 95% CI [.60, .99]). These results are compatible with an age-related processing speed deficit, mostly suggested by longer go RTs, but also with an increased preference for a prudent strategy, as demonstrated by fewer no-go errors and greater posterror slowing in older adults. An inhibitory deficit account could not explain these findings, as older adults actually outperformed younger adults by producing fewer false alarms to no-go stimuli. These findings point to a more prudent strategy when using attentional resources in aging that allows reducing the false-alarm rate in tasks producing a tendency for automatic responding.

Published: March 2021

Background:
Healthy and well-functioning teeth in all phases of life is a necessity. Teeth help in proper mastication of food as well as in word pronunciation. It gives fullness to the face, thereby helping in the social appearance of a person. Oral health and systemic health are interconnected. Past studies indicate that oral diseases cause or increase the severity of noncommunicable diseases. The general public is unaware of this connection. Thus, the present research work was planned to assess the oral hygiene practices of students and their awareness for maintenance of oral health.

Research Methodology:
The present survey was conducted among 510 students (135 boys and 335 girls) in the age group of 17–30 years studying in Dayalbagh Educational Institute. Data were collected through a questionnaire adapted from the standard tool of oral health questionnaire by the WHO.

Results and Discussion:
The result of the present study showed that 93% of the students were using toothpaste and toothbrush for cleaning teeth, but only 31% and 2% of the students were using other measures such as mouthwash and floss. Data also showed that only 44% of the students brush twice a day and only 27% visit dentist for routine checkup.

Conclusion:
Majority of the students were aware of the linkage between oral health and systemic health. Thus, it is essential to organize oral health education program at mass level to create awareness in public so that not only their oral health but also their general health can be improved.

Authors: Vishal  , Khaitan Tanya , Prajapati V.K. 
Published: March 2021

Introduction:
Oral potentially malignant disorders (PMDs) have a high risk to develop oral squamous cell carcinomas which are responsible for approximately 270,000 patients annually worldwide. When surgical excision of PMD is done, a raw denuded area is formed, which is required to be addressed. The present study was done to determine the effectiveness of zinc oxide (ZnO) eugenol paste as a dressing material of such surgical raw wounds and to assess its usefulness.

Materials and Methods:
A total of thirty patients with oral PMDs underwent wide surgical excision under local anesthesia. ZnO eugenol paste with preformed sterile gauge piece was applied in denuded area as dressing and sutured. Intraoperative evaluation was done on the following criteria: handling of ZnO eugenol paste and hemostasis achieved; postoperative evaluation included pain, adherence, granulation, epithelialization, reactivity to the ZnO eugenol. and overall usefulness as an intraoral dressing material.

Results:
Good hemostasis was obtained in 24 cases (80%). The mean score of pain was recorded as 3.5. Twenty-three cases (76%) showed granulation and epithelialization was rated as good. ZnO eugenol paste with the help of sutures showed good adherence in 29 cases (96.6%). No allergic reaction was noted. ZnO eugenol dressing was proved to be very effective in 28 cases (93.3%), effective in 2 cases (6.7%), and ineffective in 0 cases (0%).

Conclusion:
The chemical, physiological, and biological properties of ZnO eugenol have proved to be useful as a dressing material in cases of raw wound formed after excision of oral PMDs It is not a replacement for skin graft or collagen biodegradable membrane, but it can be one of the armamentaria for the oral surgeon in such cases.

Published: March 2021

Background:
Chronic tonsillitis (CT) is a common inflammatory illness in children, and serum antistreptolysin O titer (ASOT) is a common investigation performed for these cases and considered a perfect sign for tonsillectomy.

Objective:
To evaluate the expression of tonsillar T-and B-lymphocytes markers in relation to seropositive or seronegative ASOT in cases of CT.

Materials and Methods:
Thirty children (15 males and 15 females) aged 6–10 years were divided equally into two groups: Group A seropositive ASOT (≥400 IU) and Group B seronegative ASOT (<400 IU). Both performed bilateral tonsillectomy. Specimens from the removed tonsils were taken and prepared for light microscopic examination and immunohistochemical evaluation of CD20 and CD3 expression.

Results:
Seropositive ASOT group showed significant histopathologic changes in the form of hyperplasia of the stratified squamous nonkeratinized epithelium, Urgas's abscess, and severe lymphocytic infiltration. Immunohistochemical results of seropositive ASOT group showed marked expression of CD3 and CD20, while seronegative ASOT group showed mild expression of CD3 and CD20.

Conclusion:
Seropositive ASOT CT, in addition to histopathological changes, is associated with significant increase in both B-lymphocytes (CD20 expression) and T-lymphocytes (CD3 expression) markers.

Published: March 2021

Objective:
The current study aimed to retrospectively assess the cancer detection rate of needle localization biopsy of breast microcalcifications undetectable on sonography.

Materials and Methods:
Patients who underwent mammography-guided needle localization biopsy of breast microcalcifications undetectable on sonography from January 2005 to December 2017 were included in the study. Patients with incomplete medical records were excluded from the study. Patient mammograms were categorized using the Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) assessment criteria. The percentages of benign and malignant lesions were determined by pathological examination of surgically recovered specimens. Correlation between preoperative imaging assessment and final diagnosis was investigated, and the complications associated with the procedures were recorded.

Results:
A total of 301 needle-localized biopsies were performed under mammographic guidance. The mean age of the patients was 58.18 ± 7.73 years. The overall ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and cancer detection rate was 23.3%. The proportion of patients with BI-RADS 0 category and undergoing second mammography was higher in the DCIS and cancer group. A total of 227 patients did not undergo second mammography. Of these patients, 70 demonstrated BI-RADS 4 category, 34 were diagnosed with DCIS, and 5 were diagnosed with breast cancer during subsequent follow-up.

Conclusion:
Needle-localized excision of microcalcifications undetectable on sonography has high detection rate for early stage of breast cancer with low risk of associated complications. Regular mammography is a satisfactory follow-up tool for female patients with microcalcifications in the breasts. Additional studies should be performed to compare between needle-localized excision and vacuum-assisted breast biopsy.

Authors: Arjona Martín José Borja 
Published: March 2021

Introducción. De entre la oferta actual de televisión de pago destaca el impacto de los operadores OTT (servicios audiovisuales en streaming) en la transformación del panorama actual del mercado audiovisual español. Objetivos e Hipótesis. El objetivo general consiste en analizar la situación actual del panorama televisivo en España y compararlo con los datos disponibles acerca de la irrupción de los operadores OTT. Partimos de la hipótesis que plantea una situación inicial de crecimiento hacia un modelo saturado, pero de gran alcance, lo que permite fragmentar las audiencias aún más pero que pone en discusión el modelo lineal televisivo y plantea serias cuestiones acerca de la viabilidad de su modelo de negocio. Método. Se llevó a cabo una revisión exhaustiva de la información publicada por fuentes secundarias, bien periódicas o no, de ámbito nacional, así como de prensa especializada. Resultados. Se confirma el descenso del consumo de televisión lineal en beneficio de la IPTV y los OTTs. En España los ingresos de la televisión de pago se equiparan a los de la televisión en abierto, confirmando el cambio de modelo hacia un sistema de televisión basado en el vídeo bajo demanda y los dispositivos móviles. El mercado de los OTT es cada vez más diverso, pero se encuentra muy concentrado en sólo dos operadores, Netflix y HBO España. Conclusiones. Se confirma la hipótesis al encontrar un panorama audiovisual saturado que supone un beneficio para los espectadores en tanto al incremento de la calidad de las producciones, especialmente las relacionadas con la ficción, pero que conlleva también un problema de visibilidad de los contenidos y un problema de agotamiento para los espectadores.

The main purpose of the present study is to empirically analyze the impact of private investment and other macro economic variables on environmental degradation of Pakistan. For the purpose, time series data is collected for the years 1975 to 2017. The study used Linear regression model for analyzing the impact of private investment, energy consumption, financial development and economic growth on environmental degradation. Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) test and Phillips Perron (PP) test is used for identifying the unit root of the variables; first with an intercept then, with an intercept and a linear deterministic trend. Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) is used for selection of optimum lag whereas Johansen cointegration test is adopted for analyzing long run association in the variables. The results of linear regression model show that energy consumption and economic growth have a positive and statistically significant impact on CO2 emissions whereas the impact of private investment on CO2 emissions is negative. It means that in Pakistan, private investment is environment friendly. Based on study results, it is recommended that when formulating policies for economic growth and development, motivation should be given to private inverters in order to increase private investment.
