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.

Background: Regular toothbrushing is an important step that removes plaque which is the common risk factor for both periodontitis and dental caries. Commonly prescribed time of brushing by dental professionals is 2 min, despite of which, the average time spent for brushing by the general population is 45 s. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between different brushing times from 30 to 180 s, and plaque removal using conventional brushing techniques in the general population. Materials and Methods: Forty participants were included in the study. Study participants brushed for 30, 45, 60, 120, and 180 s randomly. Plaque levels at baseline and after brushing for a specific time period were assessed using the Turesky-modified Quigley–Hein plaque index and a disclosing agent. Results: Plaque removal increased with increased brushing time with maximum removal at 180 s. Conclusions: Dental professionals during health education sessions should highlight the importance of brushing for more than 3 min to achieve maximum plaque removal.

Background and Objectives: Urothelial carcinomas are known for divergent differentiation, which often poses diagnostic challenges. The use of immunohistochemistry (IHC) markers helps in differentiating these entities and provides insight into tumor pathogenesis. This study is done with the objective of evaluating significant clinicopathological and histomorphological features of urothelial carcinoma and correlating with GATA-3 and P53 staining. Materials and Methods: A total of 59 cases of urothelial tumors were included in this prospective study. Tissue samples were processed, and H and E-stained slides were evaluated and reported as per the WHO/International Society of Urologic Pathology Classification of bladder tumor 2016. IHC for GATA-3 and p53 was performed using respective monoclonal primary antibodies for GATA-3 and p53. Statistical Analysis: The correlation between GATA-3 and other classical clinicopathological parameters was studied by Chi-square test. P <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: In the present study, out of 59 cases, there was a male preponderance with an M: F ratio of 7.4:1 and an age range of 25–85 years. High-grade urothelial carcinoma was the most common histologic subtype. GATA-3 expression was seen in 93.2% of cases. There was a statistically significant correlation of GATA-3 expression with hematuria and dysuria. GATA-3 expression was compared with significant histopathological parameters and a significant correlation of the above parameters with GATA-3 expression was observed. High P53 expression was seen in the majority of high-grade tumors, with only a single case of low-grade UC showing strong P 53 reactivity. Conclusion: GATA-3 is a sensitive IHC marker to diagnose urothelial carcinoma. GATA-3 expression intensity and proportion show significant association with histopathological parameters and may play an important role in stratifying high-risk patients.

Introduction: A cesarean section is a surgical procedure by which one or more babies are delivered through an incision made on a mother's abdomen and uterus. In post cesarean section phase, early ambulation and oral intake are need to be encouraged after declined effects of anesthesia. The present study was conducted with aim to assess the effectiveness of early ambulation on postoperative pain among the women with a lower segment cesarean section. Materials and Methods: The study design was quasi-experimental design and 60 subjects were enrolled by convenient sampling technique. In experimental group, the pain level was assessed after performing breathing exercise, moving legs and hands, upright sitting position, stand and walk with and without support after 10 h of surgery for first 3 postoperative days. While in control group, the mothers were ambulated after 24 h of surgery as per the hospital protocol. Results: There was a significant difference (P < 0.001) between the mean postoperative pain scores after early ambulation among experimental on day 1st, day 2nd, and day 3rd. There was a significant decline in pain scores in experimental group compared to control group (P < 0.001) with days progresses. Conclusion: The early ambulation was significantly effective in reduce postoperative pain scores among the mothers after cesarean section. The present approach may be adopted for the mothers to decline the need of analgesics during postoperative period.

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.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) impacts over 1.2 million individuals every year worldwide and is the most frequently diagnosed illness in women. Medical treatment options have increased chances of survival, but these procedures frequently have side effects that can negatively impact health status and quality of life (QoL) over the long term QoL. Given that resistance exercise has a special anabolic effect; it may be useful for addressing the effects of BC and its therapy. Materials and Methods: This is an integrative literature review study that includes data search from PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, Google Scholar, and the physiotherapy evidence database databases for articles and also crossing English descriptors indexed in the medical subject headings and health sciences descriptors, respectively. The present review is based on the Whittemore and Knafl methodology. Results: A total of 842 patients from 13 studies were included. There was no aggravation subjectively reported or objectively evaluated lymphedema symptoms. Adverse effects were uncommon, mostly of a musculoskeletal in nature, and were successfully handled using conservative methods. The studies we looked at indicate that women who had BC surgically treated can benefit from resistance exercise in terms of their clinical and health outcomes. Results demonstrate that in cancer survivors, pain, physical and emotional functioning, fatigue, depression, and aerobic capacity have improved. Conclusion: It is necessary to conduct rigorously constructed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that recommend targeted resistance exercise regimens at various stages of BC treatment. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this intervention for the posttreatment care of BC patients and survivors as a method of enhancing health status and QoL, RCTs with complete, standardized reporting of interventions, and adverse events are necessary.

Introduction: Natural lordotic curves in the cervical spine, which gradually curve back into the apex of the chest and upper back at the base of the skull, are indicative of a healthy cervical spine. Hand grip strength can be determined by determining the amount of maximum force that the hand can squeeze against a dynamometer. Grip strength determines how tightly and securely one can grasp objects. Therefore, this study looked at the relationship between hand grip strength and cervical spine position in a healthy collegiate population. Objective: To study the correlation between cervical spine posture and hand grip strength in healthy collegiate population. Methodology: Total 100 male and female subjects. The subjects for the study were included based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. After explaining the benefits, objectives, and purpose of the study in detail, they were asked to complete the screening form and consent form to conduct the study on the impact of cervical spine position on hand grip strength in a healthy collegiate population. Results: Maximum voluntary contraction stands for Maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) T1, T2, and T3 are highly correlated. There is a weak correlation of MVC with the degree of angle of craniovertebral angle (CVA). Conclusion: This study concluded a positive and statistically significant link between body mass index and MVC and CVA, but not between MCV and CVA.

Orphan diseases also known as rare diseases (RDs) are typically hereditary in nature. According to World Health Organization, RDs have a prevalence of 1 in 1000 individuals. Few RDs such as Turner syndrome, Synovitis-acne-pustulosis-hyperostosis-osteitis (SAPHO), Williams syndrome, neurofibromatosis type I, Gorlin–Goltz, Schimke immuno, and cherubism exhibit oral signs. The disease's great complexity and relatively low occurrence necessitates a diagnostotherapeutic strategy based on the Integration of Several Specializations. Rare illnesses require a worldwide agreement about the planning of future interventions. Dentists are often the first medical professionals to recognize RDs because oral symptoms often appear several years before the corresponding systemic symptoms. The objective of this article is to showcase information about RDs and several activities undertaken over the past decade to address this worldwide issue.

Purpose: Incomplete root formation caused due to trauma can lead to problems in future. Treating such open apices teeth pose a challenge. Apexification is one of the treatment options for such teeth with open apex. Thus, this in vitro study intended to assess and compare two commercially available root-end filling materials mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA)-Angelus and Biodentine™ for their setting time and sealing ability. Materials and Methods: This in vitro study assessed the setting time and sealing ability of the two materials; MTA-Angelus and Biodentine™. For setting time evaluation, 30 rings were made and divided into two groups. The evaluation was done using Vicat apparatus. For sealing ability, sixty single rooted teeth were used and were divided into four groups (two experimental and two control). The assessment was done using the linear dye penetration method. Results: Mean setting time of Biodentine and MTA was 29.2 ± 3.84 min and 15.2 ± 2.11 min, respectively. The mean linear dye penetration in MTA group was found to be 0.808 ± 1.094 mm, 3.76 ± 1.05 mm in Biodentine group, 5.28 ± 1.73 mm and 0.05 mm in positive control group. Conclusion: MTA-Angelus demonstrated a faster setting time when compared to biodentine, while biodentine showed to have a superior sealing ability.
目的:外伤引起的牙根不完全形成可导致今后的问题。治疗这样的开放尖牙是一个挑战。根尖成形术是根尖开牙的治疗方法之一。因此,本体外研究旨在评估和比较两种市售的三氧化矿物骨料(MTA)-Angelus和Biodentine™的固化时间和密封能力。材料与方法:体外实验评估两种材料的凝固时间和密封能力;MTA-Angelus和Biodentine™。为评价凝固时间,制作30个环,分为两组。采用维卡仪进行评价。采用60颗单根牙进行封闭,分为4组(2个实验组和2个对照组)。采用线性染料渗透法进行评价。结果:百奥汀和MTA的平均凝固时间分别为29.2±3.84 min和15.2±2.11 min。MTA组平均线性染料穿透率为0.808±1.094 mm,百奥汀组为3.76±1.05 mm,阳性对照组为5.28±1.73 mm, 0.05 mm。结论:MTA-Angelus的凝固时间比biodentine快,而biodentine的密封能力更强。
