Canine parvovirus (CPV) is a highly contagious and lethal virus that causes severe gastroenteritis and myocarditis in young dogs. In 1978, CPV has rapidly spread worldwide, resulting in outbreaks and high morbidity rates among dog populations. Over a decade, CPV has undergone genetic changes, leading to the emergence of different genotypes (CPV-2a, CPV-2b, and CPV-2c), which have expanded its host range to include cats and tissue culture cells. This review focuses on CPV-2 outbreaks in India from 2010 to 2023, analyzing gene lengths covering 274-438 amino acids in the VP2 gene which are collected from the NCBI database to investigate CPV epidemiology and diversity. The study highlighted substantial differences in seroprevalence over the period for CPV-2 (7%), CPV-2a (45%), CPV-2b (12%), and CPV-2c (36%). Our study found significant seroprevalence differences among CPV variants, with CPV-2a being the most prevalent, underscoring the need for effective diagnostic and preventive strategies.

Aphthous ulcers, also known as canker sores, are a common oral condition characterized by recurrent, painful, small ulcers that typically arise on the non-keratinized mucous membranes within the mouth. Although the pathogenesis of aphthous ulcers is not completely understood; it is believed to be involved in a combination of genetic predisposition, local trauma, stress, hormonal changes, and certain environmental factors. Thus, management of aphthous ulcer revolves around reducing pain, promoting healing and preventing recurrence.

The levels of latrine utilization were lower than the levels of latrine ownership in rural areas owing to certain psycho-social barriers hindering latrine construction and consistent utilization. The study was aimed to identify the proportion of latrine construction and usage and to explore the psychological, socio-cultural and structural factors influencing latrine ownership and utilization. A community-based cross-sectional study was carried out at the four villages of Villupuram district for three months. After IEC clearance, information was collected from a representative sample of 422 households. Direct observation of the latrines was employed along with surveys. The data were entered and analysed in MS Excel. Categorical variables were expressed as frequencies and percentages. Further, the reasons were categorized into psychological, socio-cultural and structural factors. About 54.7% households owned a latrine and among them 46.8% were using it. Psycho-social factors such as convenience, habitual nature, privacy and space constraints in open defecation influenced latrine ownership. Fear of snakes and insects, safety and protection, time saving and proper functioning latrines with availability of water facilitated latrine utilization are of concern. A multi-faceted strategy employing context-specific behaviour change communication along with Government's financial support would improve both latrine construction and utilization.

The gold standard for bone regeneration in atrophic ridge patients is guided bone regeneration (GBR). This makes it possible to get enough bone volume for an appropriate implant-prosthetic rehabilitation. The barrier membranes must meet the primary GBR design requirements, which include adequate integration with the surrounding tissue, spaciousness and clinical manageability. Titanium mesh's superior mechanical qualities and biocompatibility have broadened the indications of GBR technology, enabling it to be used to restore alveolar ridges with more significant bone defects. GBR with titanium mesh is being used in many clinical settings and for a range of clinical procedures. Furthermore, several advancements in digitalization and material modification have resulted from the study of GBR using titanium mesh. Hence, we report a review on the various characteristics of titanium mesh and its current use in clinical settings for bone augmentation.

Pulp status in permanent teeth and post endodontic pain (PEP) has not been assessed properly in pediatric patients. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the prevalence, severity of PEP in permanent teeth after root canal therapy and retreatment in paediatric patients. Hence, 127 pediatric patients who had root canal therapy (RCT) for permanent teeth with necrotic pulp, vital pulporendodonticre treatment were considered. Assessment of incidence intensity of PEP at 6 hours and 18 hours after therapy was completed. The incidence and intensity of PEP in permanent teeth in paediatric patients was greater in teeth with vital pulp. It was low in teeth with necrotic pulp. The incidence of spontaneous PEP was greater in all treatment groups as compared to stimulated PEP at 6 hours after treatment. Thus, root canal therapy of teeth with viable pulp produced a noticeably greater incidence and intensity of PEP in permanent teeth in paediatric patients.
对于儿童患者的恒牙牙髓状况和根管治疗后疼痛(PEP)还没有进行过适当的评估。因此,对儿童患者根管治疗和再治疗后恒牙牙髓疼痛的发生率和严重程度进行评估很有意义。因此,该研究考虑了127名接受过根管治疗(RCT)的儿童患者,他们的恒牙牙髓坏死,需要进行重要的牙髓治疗。对治疗后 6 小时和 18 小时的 PEP 发生率和强度进行了评估。在儿童患者的恒牙中,有活力牙髓的恒牙PEP发生率和强度更高。牙髓坏死的牙齿发生率较低。与治疗后 6 小时的刺激性 PEP 相比,所有治疗组中自发性 PEP 的发生率都更高。因此,对牙髓存活的牙齿进行根管治疗后,儿童患者恒牙中 PEP 的发生率和强度明显更高。

Bus drivers and conductors are facing various health hazards due to stressful working conditions. They are exposed to various occupational hazards which lead to deterioration of their health over a period of time. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the prevalence of diabetes and hypertension among bus drivers and conductors and to determine the factors associated with diabetes and hypertension. This cross-sectional study was done among 293 bus drivers and 157 conductors during March 2018 to December 2018 and the data was collected using a semi structured questionnaire after obtaining informed consent. Each individual was investigated for Blood sugar and Blood Pressure. Out of 450 study participants, about 6.9% were diabetic and 50.2% were hypertensive. Transport workers with single marital status, those who belong to rural areas and drivers were significant predictors for diabetes. Overweight was significantly associated with the Diabetes in negative direction. Marital status, years of experience and anxiety were significantly associated with hypertension. Hemoglobin level, total cholesterol level and blood urea level also emerged as predictors for Hypertension. Non-communicable diseases like diabetes and hypertension have surpassed the communicable diseases in affecting the health of people with distinct occupations like bus drivers and conductors.

There is an increased chance of further periodontal deterioration due to severe intrabony defect. There are s different patho physiologies for perio-endo lesions, ranging from quite basic to rather complicated but to make the right diagnosis, one must be aware of various illness processes also a careful history taking, examination, and the application of specialized tests can help achieve this. Each form of endodontic-periodontal illness has a different prognosis and course of therapy and all kinds of endo-perio lesions require endodontic and periodontal treatments are necessary for primary periodontal disease with subsequent endodontic involvement and real mixed endodontic-periodontal disorders. The severity of the periodontal disease and how well the patient responds to therapy will determine how these situations turn out. Because autologous platelet concentrates are enriched with growth factors, such as concentrated growth factor (CGF), they may enhance surgical outcomes. CGF is inserted into the appropriate intrabony defect following traditional flap debridement. Following flap surgery, the tooth in question had a root canal operation. Volumetric analysis was performed on both groups before to surgery and nine months after the procedure. It has been discovered that the defect area has a much larger bone volume due to the high levels of CGF, a regenerative and reconstructive growth factor that promotes early and high bone fill.

Humans suffer from various diseases that require more specific drugs to target them. Among the different potent agents, β-lactamases serve as good antibacterial agents; however, β-lactamases are resistant to such antibiotics. The present study was designed to prepare efficient β-lactamase inhibitor amides (12-15) from inexpensive, easily accessible, and bioactive precursors; Morita Baylis Hillman (MBH) adducts (5-8). The adducts (5-8) were primarily prepared by treating their respective aldehydes with the corresponding acrylate in the presence of an organic Lewis base at ambient temperature. The compounds were characterized using mass spectrometry, FTIR and NMR spectroscopy. Furthermore, in silico studies (using AutoDock Tools and AutoDock Vina programs) on the adduct and corresponding amide product revealed that all MBH adducts (5-8) and their product amides (12-15) are significant inhibitors of β-lactamase. Additionally, among the MBH adducts, adduct 7 showed the highest binding affinity with β-lactamase, whereas amide 15 was identified as a highly potent antibacterial based on its docking score (-8.6). In addition, the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) test of the synthesized compounds demonstrated that all compounds showed drug-likeness properties.

The perceptions of the patients regarding the benefits and risk of complete denture treatment in completely edentulous patients are of interest. The study composed of 79 participants who presented themselves for complete denture therapy. The perception of the participants towards the complete denture therapy was recorded using a validated questionnaire. The answers of the questionnaire were evaluated in three domains: (1) Benefits (positive perception) of the complete denture therapy' (2) Risks (Negative perception) of the complete denture therapy and (3) Consequences of no treatment. The data were tabulated for descriptive analysis. The average age of the total population was 62.22 ranging from 58 to 80 years. Total population included in the study shows positive perception regarding the complete denture therapy. The benefits of the complete denture therapy show highest score (1817) by all the participants while the risks of the complete denture therapy show lowest score (237). The gender, denture experience and the socioeconomic status had no influence on the perception towards the complete denture therapy. Participants showed positive perception towards the complete denture therapy with highest score in benefits and lowest score for the risks of the complete denture therapy. The perception of the complete denture therapy was not influenced by the gender, denture experience and the socioeconomic status.

Determination of the normative data of Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex gain using VHIT of all three semicircular canals (anterior, posterior, horizontal) on both sides in different age groups is of interest. This is an observational study comprised of 10 healthy individuals in each decade from less than 10 years to 80 years of both sexes making a total of 80. The study was done using the equipment SYNAPSYS VHIT ULMER with Software EVOLUTION 3.0. Mean VOR gain of each decade for all the semicircular canals is calculated and they are compared using ANOVA (Analysis of variance). In our study, percentage of patients with overt saccades is nil. Hence, in our study, the occurrence of covert saccades was insignificant as compared to the above studies. Age dependent VOR gain in normal individuals did not have any significance in our study of 80 patients performed by video head impulse test. VOR gain in our study is not affected by age. Normative data for different age groups obtained compared among different age groups showing no significant difference in Mean VOR gain. The normative values of VOR gain can be compared to patients with dizziness thus helping in determining any vestibular loss.
通过使用 VHIT 测定两侧所有三个半规管(前、后、水平)的前庭-眼反射增益,确定不同年龄组的标准数据很有意义。这是一项观察性研究,从不到 10 岁到 80 岁,每个年龄段有 10 名健康人参加,男女共 80 人。研究使用 SYNAPSYS VHIT ULMER 设备和 EVOLUTION 3.0 软件进行。计算了所有半规管每个年代的平均 VOR 增益,并使用方差分析对它们进行比较。在我们的研究中,有明显囊视的患者比例为零。因此,在我们的研究中,与上述研究相比,隐性囊视的发生率微不足道。在我们通过视频头脉冲测试对 80 名患者进行的研究中,正常人的 VOR 增益与年龄无关。在我们的研究中,VOR 增益不受年龄影响。对不同年龄组的标准数据进行比较后发现,不同年龄组的平均 VOR 增益没有明显差异。VOR增益的正常值可与头晕患者进行比较,从而有助于确定是否存在前庭损失。
