The role of corneal epithelial thickness in ocular surface health
Authors: Shukla Ruchi , Banerjee Nilakshi , Mishra Ashutosh Kumar , Garg Pragati , Singh Swarastra Prakash , Shrinkhal  
Published: August 2024

Abstract
The corneal epithelium (CE), which is made up of five to seven layers, is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the cornea and the health of the ocular surface. The present review delves into the importance of corneal epithelial thickness (CET) in the identification and treatment of a range of ocular surface diseases (OSDs), such as keratoconus (KCN), dry eye disease (DED), and the aftermath of refractive procedures. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) can be used to provide reliable and precise CET values, providing valuable insights into epithelial remodeling patterns and their correlation with disease severity. In DED, CE irregularities correlate with clinical symptoms, revealing a distinctive thinning pattern in the superior epithelium, especially in severe cases. This is attributed to mechanical friction from frequent blinking. Contrasting studies on overall CET in DED patients highlight the need for standardized assessment protocols. In KCN, epithelial thickness mapping (ETM) demonstrates specific thinning patterns, aiding in early detection and management. Postrefractive surgery, epithelial remodeling contributes to residual refractive errors, emphasizing the epithelium’s role in compensating for stromal irregularities. This review underscores the importance of CET analysis in clinical practice, advocating for the integration of advanced imaging technologies like SD-OCT. Understanding the dynamic changes in CET can enhance early diagnosis, guide surgical decisions, and improve treatment outcomes for various OSDs, ultimately contributing to better ocular health maintenance.

Impacted maxillary permanent first molar
Authors: Altalhi Faisal Khalid , Alzamil Abdullah A. , Shukr Bandar S. , Alharbi Abdulaziz A. , Kowsar Ahmed S. 
Published: August 2024

Abstract
Tooth impaction is an abnormality that occurs when a tooth does not emerge into its place in the dental arch. Impacted permanent molar is an unusual condition that is usually detected during a routine examination. This impaction type is mostly problematic and can cause serious issues, especially when early detection and appropriate treatment are not achieved. This article highlights a case with a complaint of an ill-fitting denture, accompanied by an impacted molar that was identified during routine radiographic examination. The available treatment options include periodic follow-up, surgical exposure and orthodontic repositioning, and more invasively, surgical extraction and prosthetic replacement. The case was treated by a nonsurgical prosthodontics approach, in addition to regular follow-up, avoiding surgical interventions. This approach successfully restored both the patient’s function and esthetics. The case demonstrated the potential of prosthodontics therapy for managing impacted teeth and offering a minimally invasive and short treatment alternative to surgical and orthodontic interventions.

Abstract

Introduction:
Differentiating between the various available digital impression systems in terms of accuracy could help in determining the most appropriate system to be used.

Aim:
The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the accuracy of four different intraoral scanners, along with different intraoral scanning strategies (IOSs), and using the conventional impression method.

Materials and Methods:
A model with prepared teeth was scanned with a laboratory scanner. Following that, the model was scanned using the following four intraoral scanners (IOSs): TRIOS, CEREC AC Omnicam, Medit i700, and iTero Element 2. Three scanning strategies were used with each scanner during the intraoral scanning (C-motion, zig-zag, and wiggling strategies). Each strategy was repeated eight times resulting in 96 scans, along with eight conventional impressions. All three-dimensional test models were compared with the master model using Geomagic Control X. The master model was trimmed to isolate the teeth and was superimposed with all 104 test models. The data was statistically analyzed using the nonparametrical Kruskal–Wallis test.

Results:
Statistically significant differences were found when comparing all groups (the four IOSs and the conventional impression method) in terms of trueness and precision (P < 0.001). For trueness, the i700 was the highest ranked IOS (35.68 ± 1.18 μm), excelling in all groups regardless of the strategy used. For precision results, the best IOS was the i700 (46.14 ± 1.43 μm) regardless of the strategy used.

Conclusion:
Medit’s i700 scanner exhibited better accuracy compared to the other three scanners. Meanwhile, the zig-zag strategy may provide the best scanning accuracy when used with the majority of the scanners.

Sustainable banking, guided by Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria, is gaining prominence as a vital strategy for fostering sustainable development in Africa. This review explores the integration of ESG factors within the African banking sector, highlighting its significance, challenges, and potential benefits. ESG integration in banking involves incorporating environmental considerations such as climate change and resource management, social factors including community development and employee welfare, and governance aspects like ethical practices and transparency into banking operations and decision-making processes. The review begins by examining the current state of the African banking sector, noting the unique economic and regulatory landscapes across the continent. It identifies key challenges in financial inclusion, economic development, and regulatory compliance that underscore the need for sustainable banking practices. The review then delves into the specifics of ESG integration, outlining strategies for environmental sustainability, such as green financing and reducing carbon footprints, social initiatives like corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs and financial literacy initiatives, and governance improvements through robust ethical frameworks and enhanced transparency. Case studies of leading African banks demonstrate successful ESG integration, illustrating the positive impacts on financial performance, reputation, and stakeholder trust. However, the review also acknowledges significant barriers to ESG adoption, including lack of awareness, high implementation costs, and regulatory hurdles. To address these challenges, the review recommends policy support, capacity building, and collaboration with international organizations. This review underscores the critical role of sustainable banking in Africa's development, advocating for a more integrated approach to ESG factors. By aligning banking practices with sustainability goals, African banks can contribute to long-term economic growth, social equity, and environmental protection, ultimately fostering a more resilient and inclusive financial system across the continent.

Published: August 2024

Blockchain technology has emerged as a transformative force in agriculture, offering significant potential to enhance supply chain transparency and traceability. This paper explores the application of blockchain in agricultural supply chains, emphasizing its role in addressing key challenges such as fraud, inefficiency, and lack of trust among stakeholders. By providing a decentralized and immutable ledger, blockchain ensures that every transaction within the agricultural supply chain is securely recorded, from farm to fork. This transparency helps combat issues like food fraud by verifying the authenticity and origin of products, thereby increasing consumer confidence and safeguarding brand reputation. Furthermore, blockchain enhances traceability, allowing for real-time tracking of agricultural products throughout the supply chain. This capability is particularly valuable in ensuring food safety, as it enables rapid identification and response to contamination incidents, thus reducing the scope of foodborne illness outbreaks. The technology also facilitates more efficient supply chain management by streamlining processes, reducing the need for intermediaries, and minimizing paperwork, leading to cost savings and faster transaction times. Despite its potential, the adoption of blockchain in agriculture faces challenges, including the need for technological infrastructure, the cost of implementation, and the necessity of widespread stakeholder collaboration. Additionally, the integration of blockchain with other technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence, is critical to maximizing its benefits and ensuring seamless data flow within the supply chain. In conclusion, blockchain technology holds the promise of revolutionizing agricultural supply chains by enhancing transparency, traceability, and efficiency. As the industry continues to evolve, the adoption of blockchain could lead to more sustainable and trustworthy food systems, benefiting producers, consumers, and the environment. However, overcoming implementation barriers and fostering collaboration across the supply chain are essential for realizing the full potential of blockchain in agriculture.
