Approximately a billion people are assessed to have skin,nail and hair fungal diseases; millions have mucosal candidiasis and higher than 150 million people have serious fungal diseases, which have a major effect on their lives or are deadly.Moreover,mortality associated with fungal disease at >1.6 million is like that of tuberculosis and >3-fold more than malaria. Socioeconomic, geo-ecological attributes and the rising number of at-risk people are the main factors for variation in occurrence and pervasiveness of fungal disease across the world. Fungal infections are influenced majorly by the HIV/AIDS pandemic, tuberculosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma and the rising occurrence of cancers in both developed and developing countries [ 1 – 4 ] worldwide. Fungal skin diseases were the most widespread skin disease globally in 2017 (10.09%) and in 2016, fungal skin diseases were ranked the fourth highest in the occurrence of disease (2.1 billion cases) when compared [5,6] to 328 different illnesses and injuries worldwide.

In recent years, with the advancement of technology, dental diagnostic and treatment applications have become more efficient and cost-effective.Digital diagnostic and treatment methods that shorten the processes have started to be used. New methods and technical equipment continue to be developed. Digital imaging systems, robotic surgery applications,intra- and extraoral scanning systems,CAD-CAM systems,3D printing,3D modeling and analysis methods, digital orthodontics,digital cephalometry,invisalign endodontic biomicroscopes,apex locators and endodontic rotary systems have been used in recent years.The improvement of digital restorative production systems has allowed dentists to choose restorative materials different from traditional ones,to produce restorations within the clinic and also to reduce laboratory workflows.The first step of dental digital systems was digital cameras.With the development of intraoral and laboratory scanner cameras, digital imaging systems moved to another phase. This was followed by computer-aided diagnosis,treatment planning,digital design and production,and the construction of restorations.With the discovery of artificial intelligence, a new chapter in digital dentistry was opened. Success in digital dentistry depends on the precision and accuracy of digital devices and the knowledge and skills of dental personnel using digital devices and methods.This study aims to present current approaches to digital dentistry.

Cultural heritage is an expression of the way of living developed by a community and passed down from generation to generation. It includes tangible cultures such as buildings, monuments, landscapes, books and art; and intangible cultures such as folklore, traditions, language and knowledge. For centuries scholars from all over the world have paid tributes to the rich culture of India. One such culturally rich state in India is Gujarat. Gujarat's traditional textiles and crafts play a predominant role in the apparel and visual identity of the state and its people. The form itself is the amalgamation and continuity of human potential, which is demonstrated by the glorious Karigiri, The craftsmanship of the natives of Gujarat. The state's karigars (artisans) have produced an exquisite projects for daily and ceremonial uses for centuries. The artisans source their materials locally and create products that perfectly blend indigenous skills and techniques with the right imagination. Natural resources like clay, wood, stone, metal, cotton yarn, animal hide and various flowers have been adopted and fashioned into multiple designs. What exists, as a result, is a fascinating balance between nature and humans, form and function. The research will facilitate the importance of line and colour in the traditional textiles of Gujarat. Design Aesthetics is a conceptual phenomenon that manifests different elements and components of which cords and colours are of primary importance. The symphony of lines and colour creates a world of aesthetically composed designs that become a significant component of applied art.

Coccydynia is a painful condition of the tail-bone region. It affects the activities of daily living mainly involving long periods of sitting. Several different treatment options have been reported in the literature but with variable outcomes. The objective of this prospective case series was to assess the outcomes of conservative treatment for patients with coccydynia. Patients clinically and radio-graphically diagnosed with coccydynia underwent a set of rehabilitation protocols. They were assessed pre-treatment and 3 months post-treatment on the basis of visual analogue scale and Oswestry low back disability questionnaire.The results of the case series suggest that the conservative treatment offer excellent outcome.

Lipofibromatous Hamartoma (LFH) is rare condition involving diffuse peripheral nerve infiltration by normal appearing fibrous and adipose tissues. The cause and pathophysiology of LFH remains unclear however commonly proposed etiologies are congenital malformation and trauma. LFH affect the median nerve mainly but also buccinators, sciatic, superficial peroneal, posterior interosseous nerve, radial nerve, ulnar nerve, even the entire brachial plexus. Patients present with gradually enlarging non-tender lesions in the affected nerve distribution. Patient complains of numbness and tingling sensation. Motor deficits are a late finding. The majority of cases are diagnosed within the first three decades, with a mean age of 22.3 in remote cases and 22.0 in subjects presenting with macrodactyly. There are numerous overlapping clinical features with other conditions like klippal-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome, Hypertropic mononeuritis and congenital lymphedema. Upper extremity morphology includes mass, hypertrophy, macrodactyly, syndactyl, radial or ulnar deviation of phalanx , neurological symptoms including dysesthesia, paresthesia, motor deficits, cafe-au- lait spots, port wine stains, neurofibromatosis. On physical examination, the mass is soft, firm, nonfluctuant, mobile, minimally tender. Neurological deficits associated with LFH are hypesthesia, decreased grip, pinch, opposition strength and paraesthesia, yielding positive Tinel's and phalen's test. Tumors mimicking LFH of the median nerve include ganglion cyst, Déjerine Sottas disease, Klippel-Trénaunay-Weber syndrome, lipoma, and traumatic neuroma, neurofibroma and schwannoma. MRI, CT, Nerve Conduction Study, Electromyogram gets us closer to the diagnosis. Biopsy and histopathological examination are the only definitive means of LFH diagnosis. Care must be taken to rule out potentially malignant tumors. Treatment goals for LFH are symptom prevention, symptomatic relief, function, and aesthetics. Conservative approach can be offered to patients who present with an asymptomatic swelling without severe neurological impairment. There are two options of surgery. One is staged debulking and other Epiphysiodesis in a growing child. For cosmetic reasons, surgical debulking can only be undertaken if the risk of nerve damage is minimal. Digital amputation is usually reserved for severe cases refractory to debulking procedures.

Cervical lesions are most commonly seen in sexually active women. These lesions may be non-neoplastic and neoplastic. Categorization and familiarity of the cervical non-neoplastic lesions with their histopathological findings are essential in their recognition and could improve the approach toward better management of the patient. This study was conducted with the aim to access the histomorphological pattern of diseases encountered in cervical biopsies and to study the association between clinical presentation and histopathological patterns of different cervical lesions. This study clinicopathological spectrum of cervical lesions was carried out in the Department of Pathology, SMS Medical College, Jaipur over 1.5 years from April 2020 to October 2021 In our study a total of 100 cervical biopsies were taken for study. The most common age group was 41 to 50 years. White discharge per vagina was the most common presenting feature in benign cervical lesions. Abnormal bleeding per vagina was in malignant cervical lesions. Benign cervical lesions were more common as compared to premalignant & malignant cervical lesions with chronic non-specific cervicitis being the most common of all lesions. Among malignancies, squamous cell carcinoma was the most common entity. It can be concluded that the key to correct interpretation and diagnosis depends upon careful correlation between cervical histology & clinical data which eventually helps in reducing morbidity by early detection of malignant and premalignant lesions and their timely management

Introduction: Hyperbilirubinemia is a major health condition seen in approximately 60% of term and 80% preterm neonates. Total serum bilirubin (TSB) estimation is the gold standard method and is the most common reason of blood drawing in neonates. Non-invasive method like transcutaneous bilirubin (TCB) estimation is an alternative for bilirubin estimation. Thus, the primary aim of present study is to compare the efficacy of the two methods. Th Methods: is prospective observational study was conducted between 2020-2022 on 836 neonates (>35 weeks, ≥2000gm) at Mazumdar Shaw Medical Centre, Narayana health city, Bangalore aimed to compare TSB and transcutaneous bilirubin (TCB) values using JM-105 bilirubinometer assessed TCB values taken before, during and phototherapy from covered and uncovered skin of different sites and correlated with the serum bilirubin values, through linear regression and Bland Altman analysis. Positive correlations were observed between TSB and TCB values at the forehead, st Results: ernum, and pubic symphysis, with the strongest correlation at the forehead (r-0.826, p<0.001) pre-phototherapy. Correlation weakened during and after phototherapy, notably at the forehead post-phototherapy (r-0.121, p>0.05). The preferred TCB estimation site was forehead pre- and 12 hours post-phototherapy with mean difference of 2.15±2.1 mg/dl and 0.6±2.13 mg/dl respectively, while sternum was favored site at 24 hours post-phototherapy; with mean difference of 2.01±2.32 mg/dl.TCB cut-off values (13.75mg/dl) demonstrated sensitivity (78.5%) and specificity (64.5%) for discontinuing phototherapy (ROC AUC 0.774, p<0.05). TCB proves effective as a non-invasive screenin Conclusion: g tool for bilirubin estimation, alleviating the need for repeated blood draws. However, caution is advised regarding TCB's reliability during phototherapy monitoring. The study provides valuable insights into TCB's clinical applicability, offering practical recommendations for optimal usage.

Background: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a well-established technique that plays a critical role in preoperative diagnosis of any salivary gland mass lesions. Because of heterogeneity of salivary gland lesions and cytomorphology overlap, a uniform 6 tier Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) helps standardize reporting systems and may aid in better communication between clinicians and pathologists and guide the clinical management of patients.Aims:We aimed to study the utility of FNAC in the diagnosis of salivary gland lesions and also study the cytomorphological features of various salivary gland lesions using Milan system classification. Methods and Material: We performed a retrospective analysis of salivary gland lesion FNAC in cytopathology department,tertiary care center from January 2018 to May 2019.All the cases of salivary gland aspirates were classified into six diagnostic categories according to the Milan system of reporting salivary gland cytology (MSRSGC) as follows: Category 1: Non-diagnostic (ND); Category 2: Non-neoplastic (NN); Category 3: Atypia of undetermined significance (AUS); Category 4a: Neoplasm: benign (NB), Category 4b: Neoplasm: salivary gland neoplasm of uncertain malignant potential (SUMP);Category 5:suspicious of malignancy (SM);and Category 6:Malignant (M). Results:A total of 54 cases of salivary gland aspirates were classified using the Milan system as non-diagnostic 2 cases (3.7%), non-neoplastic 12 (22.22%), atypia of undetermined significance 1 (1.85%), neoplasm 32 (59.3%), suspicious for malignancy 1 (1.86%), and malignancy 6 (11.1%).Pleomorphic Adenoma (23 cases;43%) was the most common benign salivary gland lesions and Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma (3 cases; 5.6%) was most common malignant lesion. Parotid gland (38 cases; 70.4%) was the most commonly involved in benign and malignant tumors.

Because of heterogeneity of salivary gland lesions and\u0000cytomorphology overlap, a uniform 6 tier Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) helps\u0000standardize reporting systems and may aid in better communication between clinicians and pathologists and guide the\u0000clinical management of patients.Aims:We aimed to study the utility of FNAC in the diagnosis of salivary gland lesions\u0000and also study the cytomorphological features of various salivary gland lesions using Milan system classification.\u0000Methods and Material: We performed a retrospective analysis of salivary gland lesion FNAC in cytopathology\u0000department,tertiary care center from January 2018 to May 2019.All the cases of salivary gland aspirates were classified\u0000into six diagnostic categories according to the Milan system of reporting salivary gland cytology (MSRSGC) as follows:\u0000Category 1: Non-diagnostic (ND); Category 2: Non-neoplastic (NN); Category 3: Atypia of undetermined significance\u0000(AUS); Category 4a: Neoplasm: benign (NB), Category 4b: Neoplasm: salivary gland neoplasm of uncertain malignant\u0000potential (SUMP);Category 5:suspicious of malignancy (SM);and Category 6:Malignant (M). Results:A total of 54 cases\u0000of salivary gland aspirates were classified using the Milan system as non-diagnostic 2 cases (3.7%), non-neoplastic 12\u0000(22.22%), atypia of undetermined significance 1 (1.85%), neoplasm 32 (59.3%), suspicious for malignancy 1 (1.86%),\u0000and malignancy 6 (11.1%).Pleomorphic Adenoma (23 cases;43%) was the most common benign salivary gland lesions\u0000and Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma (3 cases; 5.6%) was most common malignant lesion. Parotid gland (38 cases; 70.4%)\u0000was the most commonly involved in benign and malignant tumors. Commonly affected age group by benign salivary\u0000gland lesion was 31-40 years and those with malignant salivary gland lesion was 21-30 years.

Background Dyslipidemia is frequently have lipoprotein abnormalities such as low HDL-C concentrations, increased remnant particles and hypertriglyceridemia. HDL-C concentrations are inversely correlated with atherogenic risk. PON-1 activity was lower in patients with renal insufficiency Aim & Objectives 1) To evaluate activity of PON-1 activity in patients with CRF during pre- and post- hemodialysis sessions 2) To establish interrelationships if any,between PON-1,blood urea and serum creatinine levels. 3) To identify the association of PON -1 with serum HDL levels among CRF patients Materials And Methods Hospital based case-control study consists of 40 patients who were receiving Hemodialysis (HD) therapy in the dialysis unit. Study designed to evaluate alterations in serum PON -1 activity in patients during pre and post dialysis sessions in CRF. Result About 17% increase in the activities of PON-1 have been evident during posthemodialysis as compared to pre-hemodialysis samples of patients with CRF.The mean activity of PON-1 and HDL were decreased in pre-hemodialysis samples of patients with CRF. PON-1 activity and HDL was increased in CRF patients during post-hemodialysis as compared to pre-hemodialysis sessions. In both, the results were statistically highly significant (p < 0.001).There is a positive correaltion between HDL and PON 1. Conclusion This study demonstrates that there is an increased risk of cardiovascular complications in patients undergoing hemodialysis. CRF patients undergoing hemodialysis show an increased generation of reactive oxygen species accompanied by an altered lipid profile and paraoxonase-1.
