Background: Improper shade selection is one of the most common causes behind restorations’ remake and patient dissatisfaction. Multiple protocols and devices have been proposed to address the limitations of visual shade selection. Objective: To compare the accuracy of dental shade matching gathered visually with both VITA Classical (VC) and VITA 3D-Master (V3D) shade guides with those obtained instrumentally with both 3Shape Trios 3 and VITA Easyshade® Advance 4.0. Materials and Methods: For visual shade selection (VSS), one- hundred participants from King AbdulAziz University, Faculty of Dentistry participated in the study and asked to select the shade of six masked shade tabs from both VC [A1, A2, B1] and V3D [1M1, 2M3, 3R1.]. Later, Instrumental shade determination (ISD) was completed by one experienced participant for six cycles using: VEasy and Trios 3. Results: Significant difference was found between VSS and ISD. The results suggested that although participants significantly preferred VC over V3D in terms of VSS, this did not improve the shade selection performance. Besides, in ISD, no significant difference was reported between VEsay and Trios 3. There was no statistical significance difference between neither Trios 3 when combined with VC and V3D nor between VEasy when combined with VC and V3D. VEasy showed the best shade selection performance when combined with V3D, although the difference was non-significant. Conclusion: The result of the present study supports the promising use of the intra oral scanner 3Shape Trios 3 and dental spectrophotometer VITA Easyshade® Advance 4.0. Combination with a visual selection method may result in more accurate and reliable results.

Background: Dental caries still remain a highly prevalent disease among all age groups especially children. It is caused due to repetitive and/or prolonged demineralization of tooth enamel caused by exposure to low pH from organic acids produced by acidogenic oral bacteria during fermentation of dietary carbohydrates. Streptococcus mutans is a facultative anaerobic , gram positive cocci commonly found in the human oral cavity which plays an important role in causing dental caries. Moringa oleifera Lam. (drumstick tree) is a Moringaceae family member which possesses a variety of advantageous biological properties, such as immunomodulatory, anticancer, antiulcer and antimicrobial properties. Thymus vulgaris is a pleasant smelling perennial shrub which has a direct influence on many bacteria species. The use of combinations of these two EOs and their components are thus a new approach to increase the antimicrobial efficacy of EOs , taking advantage of their synergistic and additive effects. Materials and methods: The broth microdilution method was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) of the essential oils. The MIC of Moringa, Thyme and combination of the both essential oils against S.mutans which were used in the assay were assessed at a different concentration level. Results: The antimicrobial activity of M.oleifera, T.vulgaris and combination of both the essential oils was proven with the MIC value of 2.5%v/v, 0.03906% and 0.03906% respectively. Conclusion: The combination of Moringa oleifera and Thymus vulgaris essential oil can be used as a good antimicrobial agent to treat various Streptococci borne oral infections. Further incorporation of this oil into the drug formulations is also recommended to treat S.mutans borne oral as well as systemic infections.

The main aim of this research work was the development and evaluation of polymeric nanoparticle for the bioavailability improvement of Ebastine (EBT) to treat allergic condition. EBT is a piperidine derivative that binds preferentially to peripheral H1 receptors and is a long-acting, non-sedating second-generation histamine receptor antagonist. It is practically insoluble in water (class II, according to BCS). This work aims to formulate and adjust Ebastine polymeric nanoparticles to improve the EBT solubility as well as dissolution rate. For the synthesis of PNPs, the solvent evaporation technique was used, and three different types of stabilizer that used (HPMC E5, Soluplus, tween 80). The particle size analysis indicated that the optimized formula EBT 9 had a reduced nanoparticulate size of 42 nm, with a 90 percent increase in in-vitro dissolution profile compared to 17 percent for the comparison Ebastine powder in 0.1 N HCl media (pH 1.2). As a result, polymeric nanoparticles formulation of weakly water soluble EBS greatly improved the drug's dissolving rate and increased its solubility.

Objectives: To evaluate the efficiency of acupuncture at the acupoint of Bi’nao for hypophasis and the mechanisms responsible for effect in the cerebral cortex. Methods: Participants with hypophasis were selected from patients with incompletely recovered Bell’s palsy and randomly allocated into Bi’nao group, Sham Bi’nao group and healthy control group with 33 participants per group. Acupuncture therapy was applied at the real or sham Bi’nao acupoint to compare efficiency. Clinical effects were evaluated by the House-Brackman Scale (HBS), Eye Crack Width Measurement (ECWM) scale and Eyelid Strength Assessment (ESA) before and after therapy. Regions of the brain cortex that were stimulated by acupuncture were detected by task-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. Results: HBS and ESA scores in the Bi’nao group were lower than in the other two groups (P<0.05) while ECWM scores were higher (P<0.05). The cingulate cortex and cerebellum were activated during acupuncture stimulation in the Bi’nao group when compared to both the Sham Bi’nao group and the healthy control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture at the acupoint Bi’nao increased the recovery of hypophasis in patients with incomplete recovered Bell’s palsy. The underlying mechanism might be associated with the activation of the cingulate cortex and cerebellum.

The article examines the features of prevention of cardiovascular diseases in young people. The author notes that cardiovascular diseases are among the most common diseases worldwide and cause a significant number of deaths and disabilities. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the world, and they account for about 31% of all deaths. Many of the risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases in young patients can be prevented by preventive measures, such as proper nutrition, moderate physical activity, quitting smoking and alcohol consumption, weight and blood pressure control, as well as regular medical examinations. In addition, the popularization of a healthy lifestyle, carried out through lectures, presentations, etc., plays an important role.

This work includes consideration of neurological consequences of acute respiratory viral infection (ARVI), such as meningitis, encephalitis, headache, sleep disorders and mental disorders. The authors are based on existing studies showing that ARVI can cause inflammatory processes in the nervous system and lead to long-term health consequences. The article also discusses methods of diagnosis and treatment of neurological manifestations of ARVI. The research results may be useful for doctors treating patients with acute respiratory viral infections, as well as for people who want to understand the possible consequences of this disease. In addition, the authors note that the neurological consequences of ARVI can be especially dangerous for certain groups of patients, such as children, the elderly and people with concomitant diseases. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the neurological symptoms of ARVI and to carry out timely diagnosis and treatment. The paper also notes that possible causes of neurological manifestations of ARVI may be not only viruses, but also immune mechanisms, as well as other factors such as stress and lack of physical activity during the disease. In general, the article provides an overview of the neurological consequences of ARVI, indicating their severity and the need for additional research in this area.

Polyakov, Zalina Dogaeva, Timur Rustamovich\u0000Imamutdinov, Alexander Markov","doi":"10.5455/jcmr.2023.14.03.06","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5455/jcmr.2023.14.03.06","url":null,"abstract":"This work includes consideration of neurological consequences of acute respiratory viral infection (ARVI), such as meningitis, encephalitis, headache, sleep disorders and mental disorders. The authors are based on existing studies showing that ARVI can cause inflammatory processes in the nervous system and lead to long-term health consequences. The article also discusses methods of diagnosis and treatment of neurological manifestations of ARVI. The research results may be useful for doctors treating patients with acute respiratory viral infections, as well as for people who want to understand the possible consequences of this disease. In addition, the authors note that the neurological consequences of ARVI can be especially dangerous for certain groups of patients, such as children, the elderly and people with concomitant diseases. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the neurological symptoms of ARVI and to carry out timely diagnosis and treatment. The paper also notes that possible causes of neurological manifestations of ARVI may be not only viruses, but also immune mechanisms, as well as other factors such as stress and lack of physical activity during the disease. In general, the article provides an overview of the neurological consequences of ARVI, indicating their severity and the need for additional research in this area.
