Telemedicine is a medical service, which is offered across a spatial distance. Doctors and patients use digital tools such as apps, teleconsultation platforms or video technology. There is currently no uniform and generally applicable definition of telemedicine. In the broadest sense it is understood to mean the overcoming of temporal and spatial distances in the context of medical issues. This mainly includes the measurement, recording and transmission of information or the application of medical procedures with the help of information and communication technology between physicians, or between physicians and patients, possibly with the involvement of non-medical personnel. Pediatric telemedicine was performed yet in different pediatric subspecialties. The focus of this manuscript is based on pediatric telemedicine performed in general by two persons, the virtual acting doctor and an experienced telemedical assistant in the pediatric emergency department. The telemedical examination technique will be presented in children and discussed with special relation to current knowledge in medical literature.

Introduction: The effectiveness of simulation in medicine for teaching and assessing procedural skills is well documented; however, simulation technologies are not always available due to the high cost of simulators and lack of specific training. With the advances in digital modeling and 3D printing, we can create less expensive, more specific, and more readily available models to represent these tricky procedures, allowing for more robust training of our medical professionals. Methods: The process begins with a radiological scan that is segmented to capture the anatomies associated with the desired condition. We tested two different methods for fabrication; one made on a multi-material poly jet printer and the other using a selective laser sintering (SLS) TPU printer. Results: Our first method produced a model that was not adequate for our use case. The second method produced a model that worked for our use case and captured the geometry well. The SLS printer proved more durable, mechanically accurate, and feasible for simulating massive hemoptysis than method 1. This model was used in the airway management simulations with the PCCM Fellows and was deemed exempt by COMIRB 21-3067, the institutional review board of the University of Colorado Denver | Anschutz Medical Campus. Conclusion: Our method proved to be successful in producing models that are high-detailed, inexpensive, and reproducible to teach specific medical procedures.

Repeated chronic fluoride (F) exposure for prolonged duration through water, air, and food causes F poisoning in the form of fluorosis in both humans and domestic and wild animals. However, among domestic equine animals, horses (Equus caballus) and donkeys (Equus asinus), chronic F poisoning caused by industrial fluoride pollution and fluoridated drinking water has been well studied. But these studies in these animals are still very limited. On the other hand, the sample size of these animals in these studies is also very small. Nevertheless, these studies are important from the point of view of veterinary medicine and toxicology. In these animals, F-induced diverse toxic effects or pathognomonic signs such as dental mottling or light to deep brownish staining on enamel surface of teeth, lameness, stiffness, skeletal abnormalities, crooked legs, hoof deformities, pain in joints, weight loss, unthriftiness, poor health, standing with an arched back, difficulty eating, rough hair coats, allergy or urticaria, anaemia, colic, diarrhoea, constipation, retention of urine, repeated abortions, and sterility have been reported. At the mean F concentration, in the range of 1.4 to 3.3 ppm in the drinking water, the prevalence of osteo-dental fluorosis in horses and donkeys has been found to be 78.7% and 100%, respectively. In present communication, chronic F poisoning in domesticated equine animals, horses and donkeys and its prevention in these animals have been focused. Simultaneously, research gaps have also been highlighted for researchers and veterinary scientists to do some advanced research works on these animals.

Chitin provides immense beneficial roles to the humanity and environment. Most of the chitin extracted worldwide are from the shell of the crustaceans. An alternative source of chitin has been observed as the number of crustaceans has been dilapidating. Here, extraction of chitin from the edible and medicinal macrofungi, mushrooms, have been described. This is a novel approach to meet the ever increasing chitin demand worldwide. Among four mushroom species (Pleurotus ostreatus, Agaricus bisporus, Lentinula edodes and Ganoderma lucidum), the reishi mushroom or ling zhi (G. lucidum) had been found containing the highest amount of chitin on percentage basis of dried mushroom powder. Chitin content trend observed in this study was: G. lucidum (44%) > L. edodes (35%) > A. bisporus (18%) > P. ostreatus (10%). Thus, mushrooms could be considered as important source of chitin and its deacetylated product, chitosan. In this way, mushrooms could aid in biomedical and environmental intervention through suppliance of chitin and chitosan.

An excessive and repeated high fluoride exposure over a long period of time is harmful to the health of humans and domestic animals and causes several toxic effects in the form of fluorosis disease. If fluoride exposure is due to industrial fluoride, the disease is known as industrial fluorosis. In recent years, due to rapid industrialization in India, various health problems are increasing continuously among domesticated bovine animals, cattle (Bos taurus) feed and water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) living and grazing in industrial areas due to industrial fluoride pollution. In fact, many coal-burning and industrial activities, such as power generating stations and the manufacturing of steel, iron, aluminum, zinc, phosphorus, chemical fertilizers, bricks, cement, hydrofluoric acid, etc are generally discharging fluoride into their surrounding areas which create industrial fluoride pollution. An industrially emitted fluoride not only contaminates the surrounding environment including soil, air and fresh water reservoirs, but also contaminates vegetation, agricultural crops, and many other biological communities on which bovines generally survive. These animals develop a number of toxic effects on their teeth (dental fluorosis), bones (skeletal fluorosis) and soft organs (non-skeletal fluorosis) due to chronic industrial fluoride intoxication. Due to industrial fluorosis, bovine animals become physically weak and lame, and diverse health problems, such as anemia, gastrointestinal discomforts, polyuria, polydipsia, impaired reproduction, etc. are also found in them. In the country, many domesticated bovines are suffering with industrial fluorosis. In these animals, the maximum prevalence, 84.11% of industrial dental fluorosis and 72.0% of skeletal fluorosis has been reported. In the country, the research works done so far on industrial fluorosis in bovines are briefly and critically reviewed in the present communication. Along with this, the focus has also been on the adverse socio-economic impacts of industrial fluorosis on livestock farmers and how to prevent this disease in these animals.
