The modern, dynamic world can’t imagine its development without carrying the concept of advancement in composite materials. Various researches are going on in this field to achieve the desired standard. Natural fiber reinforced polymer composite (NFPC) has a huge affinity to interchange the composite made up of synthetic fiber. This is primarily because of the advantages like light-weight, non-toxic, nonabrasive, easy availability, low cost and biodegradable properties. The specific mechanical properties like specific tensile modulus and other specific properties of natural fiber gives a satisfying result for composites as compared to synthetic fiber based composites. The general objective of this work was to develop a composite from bamboo fibers and HDPE reinforced with red bauxite mud residues to ensure good thermal stability and improve the physico-mechanical properties in traction and flexion. The morphology of the composites showed that there was a homogenous dispersion of BF at lower weight fraction, although fibre agglomeration was noticed at higher weight fraction. The results of this study revealed that treated bamboo fibres are suitable for reinforcing HDPE. It appears from these studies that the formulations produced are in accordance with the ASTM standard and can validly be used for the thermal comfort of buildings to improve the comfort of the population in sustainable habitats.

Background: Oral cancer is a significant public health concern with diverse treatment modalities and high rates of recurrence. Understanding the disease progression and patterns of recurrence is crucial for optimizing treatment strategies and improving patient outcomes. This observational study aimed to investigate the disease progression and patterns of recurrence in oral cancer patients treated with various modalities. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted using data from medical records of oral cancer patients treated at multiple health care institutions between March 2022 to February 2023 across Bhopal city. Demographic characteristics, tumor characteristics, treatment modalities, and long-term follow-up data were collected. The rates and patterns of recurrence, including local, regional, and distant recurrences were analyzed..SPSS 25.0 was used to analyse the data Results: The study included 237 patients with oral cancer. The majority of patients were males (64.9%) and presented with squamous cell carcinoma (81.8%). The most common site of oral cancer was tongue. Surgical resection was the primary treatment modality, with adjuvant therapies, such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy, utilized in majority of cases. The overall recurrence rate was 62.4%. Local recurrence occurred in 27.3% of patients, regional recurrence in 59.1% and distant metastasis in 13.6%. Conclusion: The findings highlight the importance of comprehensive surgical resection, the need for effective adjuvant therapies, and the challenges in achieving long-term disease control. The identified recurrence patterns and prognostic factors can guide treatment decision-making and risk stratification. Prospective studies and multi-institutional collaborations are warranted to validate these findings and advance the management of oral cancer.

Objective: The objective of this exploratory study was to identify and examine the factors contributing to dental anxiety and fear in dental procedures. Methods: A sample of 284 patients were recruited from patients attending a dental college and Hospital. Data were collected using self-report measures, including questionnaires and interviews, to assess dental anxiety levels and explore the factors influencing anxiety and fear in dental procedures. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 version Results: The results revealed several factors contributing to dental anxiety and fear. Patients had a Modified dental anxiety scale (MDAS) score of 14.93 + 2.047 suggesting high anxiety levels. Previous negative dental experiences emerged as a prominent factor, with 73.64 % participants reporting traumatic or painful encounters with dental procedures as influential in their anxiety levels. Fear of pain or discomfort during dental procedures was also identified as a significant contributing factor. Participants expressed apprehension towards injections, drills, and other dental instruments, highlighting their impact on anxiety and fear. Conclusion: This exploratory study identified multiple factors contributing to dental anxiety and fear in dental procedures. The findings underscore the importance of addressing these factors to provide patient-centered care and enhance treatment outcomes. Dental professionals can utilize these insights to develop tailored strategies, including effective communication, pain management techniques, and creating a supportive environment, to mitigate dental anxiety and improve the overall dental experience. Further research is needed to validate and expand upon these findings in larger and more diverse populations.

Biomarkers for assessing disease progression and treatment outcomes of oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) have gained significant attention in recent years. This review provides an overview of the current research on biomarkers in OSMF and their potential implications in clinical practice. The review focuses on the different categories of biomarkers that have shown promise in assessing disease progression and treatment outcomes in OSMF. Epithelial dysplasia markers, including Ki-67, p53, and cyclin D1, are discussed in relation to dysplastic changes observed in OSMF. Inflammatory and immune markers, such as cytokines, chemokines, and inflammatory mediators, are explored for their role in OSMF progression. The dysregulation of extracellular matrix remodelling is highlighted, with a discussion on matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) as potential biomarkers. Furthermore, the review delves into biomarkers for treatment response and outcome prediction. Collagen turnover markers, including pro-collagen type I and MMPs, are examined as indicators of collagen synthesis and degradation. Oxidative stress markers, such as malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), are evaluated for their ability to reflect oxidative stress and antioxidant status. The review also touches upon the potential of epigenetic markers, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, in predicting treatment response and prognosis in OSMF. Additionally, the review explores the use of imaging techniques, including optical coherence tomography (OCT), autofluorescence imaging, and confocal microscopy, for assessing structural changes and biomarker expression in OSMF. It discusses the potential of molecular imaging modalities, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and molecular MRI, for visualizing specific biomarkers in OSMF. Moreover, the review highlights the importance of genomics approaches, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, in identifying novel biomarkers and unraveling molecular pathways in OSMF. We emphasize the potential of biomarkers in improving patient care and management in OSMF. It acknowledges the challenges in biomarker validation, standardization, and cost-effectiveness for widespread clinical use. The review calls for further research in emerging areas, such as non-coding RNAs, microRNA panels, and multi-modal biomarker approaches, to enhance our understanding of OSMF and facilitate personalized treatment strategies.

Background: Smoking is a significant public health concern with detrimental effects on overall well-being. Vulnerable populations, such as institutionalized adolescent orphans, may face unique challenges that contribute to higher rates of smoking initiation and maintenance. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of smoking among institutionalized adolescent orphans in Patna, Bihar, and identify associated factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among institutionalized adolescent orphans aged 13-18 years in Patna, Bihar. A structured questionnaire was administered to collect data on smoking behavior, demographics, initiation age, frequency of smoking, duration, reasons for smoking, exposure to tobacco advertising, knowledge about the harmful effects of smoking, and previous attempts to quit. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and subgroup analyses. Results: A total of 250 institutionalized adolescent orphans participated in the study. The overall prevalence of smoking was found to be 17%. Male participants exhibited a higher prevalence of smoking (22%) compared to females (11%). The prevalence increased with age, with the highest rates observed among the 17-18 years age group. Exposure to tobacco advertising and peer pressure were identified as influential factors associated with smoking initiation. A considerable proportion of smokers reported a lack of awareness about the harmful effects of smoking. Previous attempts to quit smoking were reported by 25% of smokers. Conclusion: The study highlights a significant prevalence of smoking among institutionalized adolescent orphans in Patna, Bihar. Gender, age, exposure to tobacco advertising, peer pressure, and lack of awareness were identified as important factors associated with smoking behavior in this population. The findings emphasize the need for targeted interventions and policies addressing these factors to reduce smoking rates and improve the overall well-being of institutionalized adolescent orphans. Further research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of specific interventions and to explore additional factors influencing smoking behavior in this context

Introduction: Rugoscopy is the examination of palatal rugae patterns, whereas cheiloscopy is the forensic investigation technique for examining lip impressions. The palatine rugae and lip impressions are distinguishing anatomical characteristics that are specific to every person and can be utilised effectively for human identification. Aim: The purpose of this investigation is to establish a relationship between rugoscopic and cheiloscopic patterns in minors. Materials and methods: A descriptive involving 100 subjects aged 5 to 15 years was conducted. Rugae patterns and lip impressions were analysed and recorded. The Lysell classification (1955) and the Thomas and Kotze classification (1983) evaluate rugoscopic patterns based on their length and their shape and cohesion, respectively. Suzuki and Tsuchihashi classification was used to assess cheiloscopic patterns. The research was conducted for one month, and SPSS version 23.0 was used for analysis. Results: In both sexes, the predominant palatal rugae patterns were undulating, followed by curved, and then straight. Males had Type V dominant, followed by Type IV, while females had Type I' dominant, followed by Type I. Conclusion: Cheiloscopy is a more reliable tool than rugoscopy for human identification in the field of forensic science, as shown by our study's conclusion that rugoscopy yielded similar results but cheiloscopy yielded distinct results.

Introduction: The objective of this study was to investigate the awareness and attitude of geriatric patients regarding implant prosthodontic options. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 200 geriatric patients aged 65 years and above who presented to the prosthodontic department of a tertiary care dental hospital. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that assessed demographic information, awareness of implant prosthodontic options, and attitude towards these treatment options. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. Results: Of the 200 participants, 60.0% were aware of implant prosthodontic options. The most common sources of information were dentists (66.7%), followed by friends or family members (33.3%) and the internet (25%). Cost was reported as a significant barrier to seeking implant prosthodontic treatment (30%). Among participants aware of implant prosthodontic options, 70.0 % had a positive attitude towards this treatment modality.. Concerns included pain during or after treatment , implant failure, and infection . Conclusion: The findings suggest that a little more than half of the geriatric patients in this study were aware of implant prosthodontic options, with a majority having a positive attitude towards this treatment modality. Dental professionals play a vital role in promoting awareness, while addressing patient concerns and providing comprehensive education can improve acceptance and satisfaction among geriatric patients considering implant prosthodontic options.

Dental professionals play a vital role in promoting awareness, while addressing patient concerns and providing comprehensive education can improve acceptance and satisfaction among geriatric patients considering implant prosthodontic options. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":14902,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Chemical Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88921775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Background: A prosthodontic rehabilitation's success depends critically on striking a balance between new and traditional treatment modalities. These prosthodontic treatment options include partial dentures with attachments. The majority of conventional RPD are adequately designed, but they are rarely utilised by patients because they don't like how they look or how well they retain information. This article describes a modified extended precision attachment for removing metal display to improve the aesthetics and preservation of a long-span partial edentulous arch restored using prosthodontic rehabilitation. A 68-year-old male patient was referred to the prosthodontics department for the purpose of replacing lost teeth. Kennedy's class I mode 1 in the mandibular arch with a worn out dentition were identified during clinical testing. Maxillary and mandibular arches were precisely planned for fixed and removable partial denture. The underlying residual alveolar ridge and the retentive components are both necessary for the RPD to be successful. In this case study, the use of precision attachments results in a more aesthetically pleasing end and enhanced retention on the mandibular partial dentures. Clinical significance: By applying precision attachment, the treatment plan adequately described restores the appearance, masticatory function, and enhances the prosthesis' retention. Keywords: Fixed partial denture, Flexible denture, Precision attachment,cast partial denture.

Introduction: The goal of this research was to evaluate the pain felt by patients after veneers were debonded and gum remnants were removed using a tungsten carbide (TC) brush from two different cement frameworks: light fix composite and glass ionomer concrete glues. So long as we assume the null hypothesis is true, the two adhesive solutions do not vary in their ability to smooth out imperfections on the enamel surface. Materials and methods :- Based on the consideration and prohibition models, this in vitro study examined sixty newly removed human premolar teeth (n = 60) to assess orthodontic plans. Light fix cement (Trans bond XT, 3M Unitek, Monrovia, CA) was used to strengthen the metal portions in Group I (n = 30), whereas light glass ionomer concrete (GC Fuji Ortho LC, Tokyo, Japan) was used to accomplish the same in Group II (n = 30). The dried residues of the concrete glue were removed using a TC brush and a slow-speed handpiece. Maximum roughness (Rmax), root mean square roughness (Rq), and roughness (Ra) were all determined at time zero (before holding). and their attributes were compared to those at time two (after debonding and completion). Results:-The two groups had very different experiences with the roughness of the polished surface when held. The composite resin and glass ionomer cement groups had statistically significant (p0.001) differences in surface roughness. Conclusion:- After debonding the sections and finishing with a TC brush, the surface roughness of the veneer significantly increased with both the light fix and the glass ionomer strong concrete structures. The enamel surface roughness of the light cure group was worse than that of the glass ionomer cement group.
