Moderate-to-severe form of periodontitis is often accompanied by pathological tooth migration. This is characterized by spacing and proclination of teeth. Patients often feel awkward regarding their facial esthetics and seek treatment for the same. Pathological tooth migration is a complex puzzle with various etiological factors to its credit. Treatment often involves time-consuming interdisciplinary approach. Very few case reports have achieved complete resolution of pathological tooth migration by periodontal therapy alone. In this unique case report, periodontal therapy alone could ameliorate pathological tooth migration. Further to it, results are stable for 2 years and continue to be so. Hence, meticulous periodontal therapy is effective in the management of pathologic tooth migration.

Background: Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common malignancy of oral cavity. It remains a leading cause of mortality and morbidity around the world. The mortality rate of OSCC is higher in developing nations. OSCC is predominant in region where the consumption of tobacco and alcohol is high. The mortality of OSCC of tongue is higher as compared to other sites. American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition has incorporated depth of invasion (DOI) into T staging. Histopathological assessment by measuring DOI enables us the insight about the extent of invasion by neoplastic cells. Aim and Objectives: To assess the significance of DOI in the prognosis by corelating with the clinicopathological features of OSCC of tongue. Materials and Methods: Surgically operated cases of OSCC of tongue from year 2009 to 2015 in this institute was retrieved from the archival of the department. The patient cohort was categorized into two, DOI ≤ 4mm and with >4mm. Results: We observed statistically significant correlation between clinical TNM stage and DOI > 4mm (P = 0.0015); histopatholgical grading and DOI > 4mm (P = 0.002); metastasis by cervical lymph node (LNM) and DOI > 4mm (P = 0.041). Conclusion: We observed statistically significant correlation of DOI with TNM staging, histopathological grading and LNM. This prognostic factor will help the clinician for treatment management protocol.

Introduction: Hydrocephalus is characterized by imbalance of cerebrospinal fluid formation and absorption. It is manifested as a dilatation of the ventricular system. Computed tomography (CT) is useful in determining the ventricular size and shape as well as the amount of the cerebral cortex present in the evaluation of suspected hydrocephalus. Aim and Objectives: Detection of hydrocephalus and determining the cause of hydrocephalus. Differentiating communicating from noncommunicating (obstructive) hydrocephalus. to assess the severity of the hydrocephalus and seek for any consequences. Materials and Methods: This prospective study included 50 patients referred to the Acharya Vinoba Bhave Rural Hospital, Sawangi (Meghe), Wardha, for 1 year. Patients clinically diagnosed with hydrocephalus were included in the study. Multidetector CT (MDCT) imaging was performed on Siemens 16 Slice MDCT machine. Multiplanar reformation and three-dimensional reconstruction were done wherever necessary. Results: 20% were diagnosed to have meningitis, 10% had Intraparenchymal haemorrhage and Intraventricular extension, 12% had aqueduct stenosis, and 12% had communicating hydrocephalus. In the study, 40% of them had communicating-type hydrocephalus or extraventricular obstructive hydrocephalus and 60% had obstructive hydrocephalus. On the CT scan, it was observed that at the lateral ventricle, dilatation was observed in four regions. Frontal horn dilatation (98%), body dilatation (98%), and 100% dilatation were seen at the temporal horn and occipital horn. Among 100 patients, 14% had cortical thinning and thus were classified as severe hydrocephalus with a poor prognosis, and 20% had periventricular edema. Conclusion: CT is the best means of obtaining images as it is easily available, fast, reliable, and compatible with standard life support devices.

Objectives: Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in adulthood often have origins in childhood and adolescent lifestyle behaviors. The COVID pandemic has had a profound impact on people worldwide due to lockdowns and restrictions. The aim of this pilot study was to analyze the change in lifestyle and dietary preferences of schoolgoing adolescents in Oman during the COVID outbreak. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among adolescents attending a school in Oman using an online questionnaire. Results: Of the 59 students participating in the pilot survey, the majority (62.7%) felt that their weight was correct; however, 55.8% were still trying to change their weight. Females were 12 times more likely to attempt weight-maintaining/change measures as compared to males. About 55% of students did not consume breakfast regularly; females were more likely to skip breakfast as compared to males. The recommended dietary requirements for daily fruit (>2 times per day) and vegetable (>3 times per day) intake were followed by 59.3% and 27.2% of students, respectively. Only one-fourth of students (25.4%) fulfilled the recommendation of >60 min of physical activity daily; males were 1.5 times more likely to engage in physical activity than females. Two-thirds of students (67.8%) spent an average of 3–6 h/day in sedentary activities. Conclusions: Unhealthy lifestyle behaviors such as skipping breakfast, reduced intake of fruits and vegetables, and reduced physical activity were noted in adolescent schoolgoing children during COVID in Oman. This increases the risk of NCDs in the long term, thus necessitating intervention in childhood and adolescence. Policymakers should focus on health programs and campaigns toward increasing awareness of healthy lifestyles and dietary behaviors, especially during the pandemic to inculcate healthy habits from an early age.

Objectives: While laboratory accreditation has improved laboratory practices in several countries, its effectiveness in laboratories in Saudi Arabia remains unclear. This survey aims to assess the impact of laboratory accreditation on laboratory practices across the country. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we surveyed laboratory practitioners (n = 207) across Saudi Arabia from September 21 to October 22 using an online questionnaire created over Monkey Survey. Practitioners were queried regarding their laboratory accreditation, practices, and the observed impact on patient laboratory testing. Data were analyzed using IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software and potential associations were assessed using the Chi-square test. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant in all cases. Results: Laboratories with a higher number of accreditations were more likely to have documented standard operating procedures (SOPs) (P = 0.039) and more frequent reviews of laboratory policies and procedures (P = 0.002). Practitioners in our study were more likely to have noticed an overall improvement in patient laboratory testing if their institutes adhered to the components of the accreditation process, such as documented SOPs for testing (P = 0.017), availability of safety manuals (P < 0.01), written policies of internal and external quality assurance programs (P = 0.007), regular meetings to maintain accreditations (P ≤ 0.001), and availability of a task force team to maintain the accreditation program (P ≤ 0.001). Conclusion: This survey suggests that accreditation has had an overall positive impact on laboratory practices and patient laboratory testing in Saudi Arabia.

Background: The purpose of the study is to illustrate the preferential levels of e-learning and to highlight the effect of e-learning in comparison to the traditional method of learning among students to ultimately improve academic performance. Aims: The aim of this study is to compare and evaluate the expectations and effects of e-learning on the dental education among students and staff members at a private dental college of Wardha district, Maharashtra. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 499 students to assess the perception of undergraduate students, interns, and faculty members of a private dental college of Wardha district, Maharashtra, on the impact of e-learning on the understanding of lectures during the COVID-19 period. For data collection, an online questionnaire using Google Forms was prepared. For further understanding of the data, 21 questions were divided into three sections. The first section collects data regarding demographic details such as age, sex, and professional status. The second section had questions regarding the choice of e-learning tools and feasibility, whereas the third section had questions to understand the impact of e-learning on mental and physical health as well as effect on curriculum. Statistical Analysis Used: For statistical analysis, SPSS version 24 was used. Analysis of statistics by Chi-square test was done using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: All faculty members, interns, PGs, and UGs agreed that their screen time increased during COVID-19 as online classes were the primary source of learning. During this era, out of all, 67.89% of faculties, 62.96% of interns, 54.95% of UGs, and 60.67% of PGs encountered vision-related problems such as headache, burning sensation, and dryness of eyes. Faculty members experienced back and neck pain. Almost all participants agreed that they felt isolated using e-lectures. Further, when they were asked about their preferred mode for learning, live/offline mode was preferred over e-learning by 100% of faculty members, 93.63% of interns, 86.08% of UGs, and 88.89% of PGs. Furthermore, all participants showed their strong disagreement for using e-learning as their primary source of learning. Conclusions: During COVID-19, e-learning helped us to provide education across the country; however, its use as primary learning media should be judiciously carried out as it may affect the mental and physical health of the patient in long term.

The branch of medicine is witnessing continuous makeover due to new knowledge or innovations in the field. The novel coronavirus pandemic also changed many of our mindsets. The traditional cadaveric dissection is also not an exception to this. The increasing shortage of cadavers for dissection, lack of public awareness of body donation program, etc., is important factors that generated the need of virtual dissection modalities. Many technologically advanced modalities are available worldwide. India is one of the largest Medical Education Hubs with hundreds of medical institutes across the country. Many multi-national companies and newly launched start-ups from India are focusing their attention toward virtual dissection modalities. These have revolutionaries the concept of teaching and learning through traditional cadaveric dissection. In this article, we presented some of the virtual dissection modalities and their pros/cons over the traditional teaching.

The most common acute hyperglycemic emergency encountered in type-1 people with diabetes is diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The patient presents with a myriad of symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, anorexia, and dehydration, along with symptoms of hyperglycemia, such as polyphagia, polyuria, or polydipsia. The condition may progress rapidly and most likely mask coexisting diseases such as acute pancreatitis (AP), in which the patient primarily presents with emesis and abdominal pain. Clinically, apparent pancreatitis is uncommon in children with DKA and might thus be missed, worsening the outcome and even becoming life-threatening. Therefore, we present a rare case of a 13-year-old diabetic who was timely diagnosed with DKA complicated with AP without hypertriglyceridemia and thus treated for the same, leading to a better prognosis.

Clinically, apparent pancreatitis is uncommon in children with DKA and might thus be missed, worsening the outcome and even becoming life-threatening. Therefore, we present a rare case of a 13-year-old diabetic who was timely diagnosed with DKA complicated with AP without hypertriglyceridemia and thus treated for the same, leading to a better prognosis.","PeriodicalId":15592,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences University","volume":"18 1","pages":"497 - 499"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44965578","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: Major depressive disorder is one of the most common neuropsychiatric disorders, affecting over one-fifth of the global population. Adolescents and young adults suffering from depression are also at high risk of developing bipolar disorder. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is a psychotherapeutic intervention based on Zen meditation (ZM) that aims to reduce the risk of relapse of recurrent depression. Yoga stretch physical and emotional health can be improved and maintained through exercise. Yoga poses stretching exercise (YPSE) positively impacts physical and mental health by down-regulating the hypothalamic–pituitary-adrenal axis and the sympathetic nervous system. Purpose: The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of web-based generalized exercise training in young individuals in improving their general, physical, emotional, psychological, and social outcomes. Methods: Montgomery and Asberg depression rating scale is a tool used to evaluate participants who are depressed. The pre-Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and short-form 36 (SF-36) questionnaires were then completed by the researcher. Before beginning the intervention, the participants were briefed on the importance of the study approach. Following intervention, post-MMSE, PHQ-9, and SF-36 questionnaires were again measured. Results: After following the mindfulness cognitive behavioral therapy (ZM and YPSE) program for 7 days, there are significant improvements in the MMSE, PHQ-9, and SF-36 tests. Conclusions: ZM and YPSE training enhance general, physical, emotional psychological, and social functioning greatly.
