Abstract
The Lunar Mineral Spectrometer (LMS), on board the Chang’E-5 (CE-5) lander obtained the in situ spectra of the sampling area close to the Moon’s local noon. This provides an opportunity to investigate the meter-scale thermophysical properties and temperature distribution of the lunar surface. We established a new thermal correction method using the laboratory-measured spectra of CE-5 samples in this study. The surface temperature of the CE-5 sampling area was derived by applying this new method to LMS in situ data. The temperature of the flat lunar surface estimated by LMS is very close to that of Diviner data. The temperature estimated by Diviner probably represents the temperature characteristic of a flat lunar surface. The characteristic of meter-scale temperature distribution within the CE-5 sampling area was also discussed. This is essential to understanding the influence of the microscale landforms and roughness on the thermal and physical characteristics of the lunar surface.

Abstract
We present a population-level analysis of the dayside thermal emission spectra of 19 planets observed with Hubble WFC3 and Spitzer IRAC 3.6 and 4.5 μm, spanning equilibrium temperatures 1200–2700 K and 0.7–10.5 Jupiter masses. We use grids of planet-specific 1D, cloud-free, radiative–convective–thermochemical equilibrium models (1D-RCTE) combined with a Bayesian inference framework to estimate atmospheric metallicity, the carbon-to-oxygen ratio, and day-to-night heat redistribution. In general, we find that the secondary eclipse data cannot reject the physics encapsulated within the 1D-RCTE assumption parameterized with these three variables. We find a large degree of scatter in atmospheric metallicities, with no apparent trend, and carbon-to-oxygen ratios that are mainly consistent with solar or subsolar values but do not exhibit population agreement. Together, these indicate either (1) formation pathways vary over the hot and ultra-hot Jupiter population and/or (2) more accurate composition measurements are needed to identify trends. We also find a broad scatter in derived dayside temperatures that do not demonstrate a trend with equilibrium temperature. Like with composition estimates, this suggests either significant variability in climate drivers over the population and/or more precise dayside temperature measurements are needed to identify a trend. We anticipate that 1D-RCTE models will continue to provide valuable insights into the nature of exoplanet atmospheres in the era of JWST.

Abstract
We report long-baseline interferometric observations with the CHARA Array that resolve six previously known double-lined spectroscopic binary systems in the Hyades cluster, with orbital periods ranging from 3 to 358 days: HD 27483, HD 283882, HD 26874, HD 27149, HD 30676, and HD 28545. We combine those observations with new and existing radial-velocity measurements, to infer the dynamical masses for the components as well as the orbital parallaxes. For most stars, the masses are determined to be better than 1%. Our work significantly increases the number of systems with mass determinations in the cluster. We find that, while current models of stellar evolution for the age and metallicity of the Hyades are able to reproduce the overall shape of the empirical mass–luminosity relation, they overestimate the V-band fluxes by about 0.1 mag between 0.5 and 1.4 M
⊙. The disagreement is smaller in H, and near zero in K, and depends somewhat on the model. We also make use of the TESS light curves to estimate rotation periods for our targets, and detect numerous flares in one of them (HD 283882), estimating an average flaring rate of 0.44 events per day.

Published: August 2024

Abstract

Background:
Adductor canal block (ACB) is an emerging technique for postoperative analgesia following knee surgery. ACB technique is relatively easy and is performed under ultrasound guidance.

Aims:
This study aimed to compare the efficacy of fentanyl and magnesium sulfate as adjuvants with 0.5% ropivacaine in ACB for patients undergoing knee surgeries. Adverse events if any were also noted.

Materials and Methods:
The study was conducted on 100 patients aged 40–80 years posted for knee surgeries. They were divided into two groups of 50 each: Group ropivacaine with fentanyl (RF) and Group ropivacaine with magnesium (RM). Group RF received 30 mL of 0.5% ropivacaine with 50 μg of fentanyl. Group RM received 30 mL of 0.5% ropivacaine with 125 mg of magnesium sulfate. Both the groups were compared on the basis of time for the first rescue analgesia given after the block. The results were analyzed using the SPSS software.

Results:
The mean time of the first rescue analgesia was 8.40 ± 0.85 h in Group RF and 10.63 ± 1.10 h in Group RM, which was higher and statistically significant (P = 0.002). Rescue analgesia was given more frequently in Group RF (5.77±3.84) compared to group RM (3.20±1.27) and this was statistically significant (P = 0.000). There were no significant adverse events noted in both the groups.

Conclusion:
Both the adjuvants, when added to ropivacaine, prolong the duration of blockade and reduce the requirement of rescue analgesia without causing significant adverse effects, but magnesium sulfate has an extra edge over fentanyl in terms of longer duration of postoperative analgesia.

Authors: Rakha Ahmed M. , Tawfik Gamal A. , Mahmoud Mahmoud E. , Keshawy Mohammed M. 
Published: August 2024

Background
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2. Most individuals affected by the virus will suffer mild to moderate respiratory symptoms and recover without the need for special care. However, acute kidney injury (AKI) was present in 0.5–25% of hospitalized COVID-19 patients and associated with poor prognosis. Among COVID-19 patients, hypovolemia and dehydration are common causes of AKI. AKI is the second most frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 patients after acute respiratory distress syndrome. There are scarce studies about the incidence and outcomes of AKI in COVID-19 patients worldwide.

Patients and methods
This study aims at evaluating the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of AKI in COVID-19 patients. This study is a retrospective observational study conducted on 296 patients with a positive PCR test for COVID-19 admitted to the isolation unit in Suez Canal University Hospital, Egypt.

Results
AKI developed in 53.4% of COVID-19 patients. Moreover, critically ill COVID-19 patients in the ICU had a higher incidence of AKI compared with hospitalized patients. Furthermore, AKI incidence was significantly associated with higher age, presence of hypertension, or chronic kidney disease.

Conclusion
AKI developed in a considerable number of COVID-19 patients and was significantly associated with higher mortality.

Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Both the mechanical cleansing effect and the irrigants’ capacity to disintegrate tissue are necessary for irrigation to be successful. Strong antibacterial but not poisonous to the periapical tissues and increased pulp tissue dissolution irrigant are all desirable qualities in an irrigant.

Aim:
To assess and compare the antibacterial properties and pulp tissue dissolving activity of various irrigation solutions.

Methods and Materials:
A total of 240 human mandibular permanent premolar teeth that were extracted recently for periodontal or orthodontic reasons were used in this investigation. Following irrigation, blood agar plates were used to conduct colony-forming unit (CFU) counts of the microorganism breeding colonies. Next, log CFU was computed. Before evaluating the ability of the five distinct irrigants utilized in this investigation to dissolve the frozen pulp tissues, the tissues were first smashed into smaller pieces using a mallet.

Results:
The bacterial count after irrigation in category 1 (normal saline), category 2 (aqueous ozone), category 3 (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)), category 4 (chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX)), category 5 (super-oxidized water), and category 6 (sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl)) was 6.08 ± 0.87 log CFU mL-1, 0.92 ± 0.89 log CFU mL-1, 4.15 ± 0.20 log CFU mL-1, 3.34 ± 0.46 log CFU mL-1, 0.21 ± 0.52 log CFU mL-1, and 0.00 ± 0.00 log CFU mL-1, respectively.

Conclusion:
NaOCl has maximum antimicrobial reduction and pulp tissue dissolution property.

Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
Although PCOS affects reproductive health, its consequences on the outcome of pregnancies are still up for discussion. Comparing the pregnancy outcomes of women with PCOS to a control group was the goal of this retrospective research.

Methods:
Analysis of data from tertiary care centers between 2017 and 2022 was done in retrospective. While the controls (n = 300) matched for age, BMI, and parity, the PCOS group (n = 300) satisfied Rotterdam criteria. Maternal-fetal health, birth outcomes, and gestational problems were evaluated.

Results:
Compared to controls, women with PCOS had a greater incidence of preeclampsia (12.3% vs. 8.1%, P = 0.023) and gestational diabetes (18.7% vs. 9.8%, P < 0.001). On the other hand, there were no notable variations in low birth weight (P = 0.589) or preterm delivery (P = 0.321).

Conclusion:
In summary, the correlation between PCOS and increased risks of gestational diabetes and preeclampsia emphasizes the necessity of customized therapies. The intricacy of PCOS’s influence on birth outcomes is shown by the inconclusive results regarding preterm delivery and low birth weight, which call for more research to enhance mother and newborn health in this group.

Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT

Objective:
This prospective research directed to estimate the efficacy and safety of different post-operative pain management techniques in oral surgery subjects.

Methods:
Patients scheduled for various oral surgical procedures were recruited from a single oral surgery clinic between January 2022 and December 2023. Inclusion criteria encompassed adult subjects undergoing elective oral surgery under local or general anesthesia. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of three post-operative pain management protocols: Group A received standard analgesics, Group B received combination analgesics, and Group C received non-pharmacological interventions. Pain intensity scores, analgesic consumption, adverse events, and patient satisfaction were assessed at specified intervals post-operatively.

Results:
Non-pharmacological interventions demonstrated lower pain intensity scores and analgesic consumption compared to standard and combination analgesics. Additionally, the incidence of adverse events was lower in the non-pharmacological intervention group. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in pain outcomes among the three groups.

Conclusion:
This prospective research suggests that non-pharmacological interventions may provide effective pain relief with fewer adverse events compared to traditional analgesics in post-operative oral surgery subjects. Implementation of multi-modal pain management approaches tailored to individual patient needs may improve overall pain control and enhance patient outcomes.

Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Wisdom tooth extraction often requires various surgical techniques due to differences in tooth position, root morphology, and patient characteristics. This research aims to compare traditional surgical extraction with minimally invasive techniques such as piezo surgery and laser-assisted extraction, as well as extraction with the aid of 3D imaging and navigation systems.

Methods:
Patients requiring wisdom tooth extraction were randomly assigned to one of the surgical technique groups. Preoperative imaging assessed tooth position and root morphology. Intraoperative variables and postoperative outcomes were recorded, including pain levels, swelling, and healing time. Patient-reported outcomes were assessed using standardized questionnaires.

Results:
Piezo surgery, 3D imaging, and navigation-guided extraction techniques demonstrated a shorter mean duration of surgery and lower incidence of intraoperative complications compared to traditional extraction and laser-assisted extraction. Postoperative outcomes were superior in the 3D imaging and navigation-guided extraction group, with lower pain scores, reduced swelling, and faster healing time.

Conclusion:
Advanced imaging-guided techniques, particularly 3D imaging and navigation-guided extraction, offer significant benefits for patients undergoing wisdom tooth extraction by improving surgical precision, minimizing complications, and enhancing postoperative outcomes. Incorporating these technologies into routine practice can optimize patient care and outcomes in oral surgery.

ABSTRACT

Context:
The goals of orthodontic therapy are to provide stable treatment results and the best possible tooth alignment. Orthodontic retention regimens are essential for avoiding relapses after treatment; however, there is ongoing discussion on the best regimen.

Methods:
Orthodontic patients treated at a tertiary care center were the subject of a retrospective analysis. Information was gathered about follow-up evaluations, treatment techniques, patient demographics, and retention procedures. Relapse rates and occlusal characteristics were among the objective variables used to evaluate treatment stability. A statistical analysis evaluated the effectiveness of various retention strategies.

Findings:
When it came to preserving treatment stability, fixed retainers outperformed detachable appliances, Hawley retainers, and Essix retainers. The mean changes in occlusal parameters and relapse rates were greater for removable appliances, but the performance of Hawley and Essix retainers was moderate. Significant variations in retention techniques were verified by statistical analysis, with fixed retainers outperforming alternative detachable retainers and removable appliances. In conclusion, compared to alternative detachable retainers and removable equipment, fixed retainers are more successful in preserving treatment stability. Retention protocols, however, must to be established with each patient’s needs and treatment preferences in mind. The length of patient compliance and retention has a crucial role in determining the stability of therapy, underscoring the significance of patient education and continued monitoring. To improve long-term treatment results and optimize orthodontic retention techniques, further research and technical developments are required.

Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Apical periodontitis and irreversible pulpitis are typical dental conditions treated with “Root Canal Treatment (RCT)”. Single-visit RCT has become a viable alternative to the multi-visit RCT method used in traditional RCT.

Methods:
A total of 100 RCT participants were randomised to either the single-visit or multiple-visit groups at random. A ”Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)” was used to measure post-operative discomfort at 24, 48, and 72 hours. At 6 and 12 months, peri-apical radiographs were used to assess the healing results.

Results:
At all time periods, there were no discernible variations in post-operative discomfort between the single-visit and multiple-visit groups. In contrast to the multiple-visit group, the single-visit group had greater rates of full healing at both 6 and 12 months.

Conclusion:
Compared to multiple-visit RCT, single-visit RCT provides similar post-operative pain alleviation and may result in better healing results. This suggests that single-visit RCT is a feasible and effective management option for patients who need root canal therapy.
