Music has been known as a powerful tool that can change brain activities. This pilot study aims to investigate the impact of listening to nursery rhymes on brain Waves specifically Alpha and Beta wave activities when music played by a professional musician, a robot called Pepper, and a boom box. Applying Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and statistical analysis of Electroencephalography (EEG) data revealed a strong correlation between brain wave activities of individuals who listened to music played by a robot or a musician. Also, despite the study hypothesis that listening to nursery rhymes may calm individuals, it made some participants restless.

Tear secretion is very unique to humans but the regulation of tear secretion has remained a mystery for many years. It has been described that the parasympathetic control and the sympathetic control work together to control tear secretion. However, we did not know which of the two is more important. Recently, we have shown that the parasympathetic nervous system in mouse model is more important than the sympathetic nervous system for tearing. In order to prevent dry eye, modern society should emphasize the importance of the parasympathetic nervous system.

Social work as an independentsocial science deeply approaches people entering aging period tostay healthier and safer. Such an approach endows longer life topeople aged 60-65 and over.

Introduction: Granulomatous mastitis (GM) is a rare benign breast disease subdivided into idiopathic and specific. The clinical and imaging diagnosis is often challenging as it can mimic malignancy. It has characteristic histological features of multinucleated giant cells, non-caseating granulomas, and necrosis. The treatment is still controversial with steroid therapy as a primary modality and surgery are avoided due to fistula formation and recurrences. Aims and objectives: This study aims to establish the descriptive features of granulomatous mastitis and the correlation between various risk factors affecting and leading to the recurrence of the disease. Materials and methods: This was a retrospective study carried out for a period of 12 months at IBCC (Integrated Breast Care Centre) established in AIIMS, Rishikesh, Uttarakhand. Out of 2567 patients who presented to OPD, 34 patients were diagnosed with granulomatous mastitis included in this study. Results: Of all the 34 patients who presented with granulomatous mastitis, the mean age 38.32 yrs, all of them are females (100%) with a mean duration of 2.55 months. Breast lump noted in 82.4%, 85.3% with Pain, 17.6% had Discharge. On examination, the mean largest size is 3.41 ± 1.15 cm, 67.6% had Tenderness. We observed statistical significance (P<0.05) between pathological features, giant cells, AFB positivity, antibiotics, steroid, and antituberculosis treatment with recurrence. Conclusion: Granulomatous mastitis is a special disease scenario that will mimic malignancy but have low rates of transformation but it has more financial burden on patients due to its chronicity resulting in poor quality of life which is a Boon and Bane for these patients.
简介:肉芽肿性乳腺炎是一种罕见的乳腺良性疾病，分为特发性和特异性。临床和影像学诊断往往具有挑战性，因为它可以模拟恶性肿瘤。它具有多核巨细胞、非干酪化肉芽肿和坏死的组织学特征。治疗仍然存在争议，类固醇治疗作为主要的治疗方式，由于瘘管形成和复发而避免手术。目的:本研究旨在建立肉芽肿性乳腺炎的描述特征以及影响和导致该疾病复发的各种危险因素之间的相关性。材料和方法:这是一项在IBCC(综合乳房护理中心)进行的为期12个月的回顾性研究，该中心位于北阿坎德邦里希凯什的AIIMS。在就诊于OPD的2567例患者中，本研究中有34例患者被诊断为肉芽肿性乳腺炎。结果:34例以肉芽肿性乳房炎为临床表现的患者，平均年龄38.32岁，均为女性(100%)，平均病程2.55个月。乳房肿块占82.4%，有疼痛占85.3%，有分泌物占17.6%。检查时，平均最大尺寸为3.41±1.15 cm, 67.6%有压痛。病理特征、巨细胞、AFB阳性、抗生素、类固醇、抗结核治疗与复发之间差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:肉芽肿性乳腺炎是一种类似恶性肿瘤的特殊疾病，但其转化率较低，但由于其慢性性导致生活质量差，给患者带来了更大的经济负担，这对这些患者来说是一种福音和灾难。

Dementia is a prevalent age-related disease that affects an individual’s quality of life. Cognitive decline is the most common symptom of dementia that consequently causes problems with memory, language, and apathy, communication, thinking ability, difficulty in problem-solving and doing their daily living activities independently. In recent years, researchers have tried to improve the quality of life of people living with dementia by utilizing new technologies such as robots. This study aims to investigate specifically the application of humanoid robots in refuting the risk of dementia by focusing on three approaches: 1) cognitive-communication improvement, 2) psychomotor therapy, and 3) music therapy. The results indicate that having humanoid robots as companions may serve as an effective therapy that helps people living with dementia (PLwD) with their cognitive function, motor skills, language, and communication skill. It also may decrease psychiatric symptoms by involving PLwD which will lead to improvement in their quality of life. The humanoid robots can also help reduce cognitive decline by helping PLwD perform exercises.

The naked mole-rat, Heterocephalus glaber, is the longest-lived rodent known with a lifespan in captivity >30 years, 10 times longer than mice, a comparable size rodent. In addition to a particularly long life, it exhibits exceptional resistance to many age-related diseases: cancer, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and metabolic diseases. It resists many forms of stress: hypoxia, oxidative stress, and strikingly maintains adequate body composition, fertility, bone quality, and mineral density throughout their long life. The naked mole-rat is a non-traditional animal model that defies the law governing the processes of aging and mortality and provides a powerful tool for the discovery of endogenous molecular anti-aging pathways. Over the past decades, much possible resistance and anti-aging mechanisms have been discovered. These include exclusive physiological mechanisms involved in cellular senescence and its clearance, telomere attrition, genome and proteome stability, stress resistance and metabolism flexibility… This review aims to summarize the many identified anti-aging strategies of the naked mole-rat to better grasp some of the main theories that have been generated. However, many of these theories remain to be fully investigated and confirmed to further understand the complex biology of the naked mole-rat.
