Methods: This in-vitro study involved 36 extracted human molars divided into three groups, each restored with one of the aforementioned materials. Standardized class V cavities were prepared and restored according to manufacturer instructions.

Comparative Evaluation of Fracture Resistance in Endodontically Treated Teeth: An Analysis of Different Restorative Materials.

Background: Endodontically treated teeth are susceptible to fractures due to loss of structural integrity. Reinforcing these teeth with appropriate restorative materials is crucial for restoring their function and longevity. The study was undertaken to compare the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth restored with different restorative materials.

Evaluating the Efficacy of Bioceramic versus Resin-Based Sealers in Endodontic Treatments: A Comparative Analysis.

Background: Root canal therapy relies heavily on the effectiveness of the sealer used to ensure successful treatment outcomes. Bioceramic and resin-based sealers are commonly employed, each offering distinct advantages and drawbacks. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of bioceramic versus resin-based sealers in root canal therapy, focusing on microbial leakage, seal integrity, postoperative pain, and healing rates.

Analysis of Different Irrigant Activation Methods on Elimination of Intra-Root Canal Enterococcus Faecalis with Sodium Hypochlorite: An Study.

Background: Endodontic treatment comprises of thorough cleaning and shaping of the canal through appropriate instrumentation and irrigation. The key component of an efficient endodontic therapy is irrigation because it performs numerous crucial chemical, mechanical, and microbiological tasks. Efficient irrigation plays a crucial role in bacterial reduction.

Prevalence of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease: Mapping Across Different Indian Populations (MAP Study).

Introduction: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a growing global health concern. MASLD is strongly linked to obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and metabolic syndrome. In India, the prevalence of MASLD exhibits regional variations because of genetic, dietary, and socioeconomic factors.

An Update of Fungal Endophyte Diversity and Strategies for Augmenting Therapeutic Potential of their Potent Metabolites: Recent Advancement.

Endophytic fungi represent a significant renewable resource for the discovery of pharmaceutically important compounds, offering substantial potential for new drug development. Their ability to address the growing issue of drug resistance has drawn attention from researchers seeking novel, nature-derived lead molecules that can be produced on a large scale to meet global demand. Recent advancements in genomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics, and improved cultivation techniques have significantly aided the identification and characterization of fungal endophytes and their metabolites.

Holistic analysis of Ganga basin water quality: a statistical approach with WQI, HMCI, HMQI and HRI indices.

The Ganga river, one of the largest and most culturally significant rivers in India, supports millions of people living along its banks. However, extensive use and untreated wastewater discharge have led to significant contamination. This study utilizes land use and land cover (LULC) analysis, along with regular water sampling from 2021 to 2222, to assess variations in physical, chemical, and biological characteristics and evaluate health risks posed by heavy metals across eight monitoring sites in the Ganga and Yamuna rivers, Prayagraj, India.

Bioremediation potential of the consortium of indigenous microbial isolates in degrading multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) present in contaminated water.

MWCNT is being explored in various sectors like medical healthcare, electronics, aerospace, defence research, and many more leading to the continuous generation of waste discharged into water sources. Once introduced into the environment it may adversely affect flora and fauna. It is high time MWCNT should be recovered, treated, and degraded from wastewater.

Untargeted Metabolomics and Bioactivities Assessment of , an Endophytic Fungus Isolated from the Leaf of the Plant .

Introduction: Fungal endophytes have mutualistic associations with the plant's host, communicating through genetic and metabolic processes. As a result, they gain the ability to generate therapeutically effective metabolites and their derivatives.

Methods: The current study aims to assess antioxidant potential along with the identification of robust metabolites within the crude extract of a potent endophytic fungus isolated from leaf tissues of the Linn.

Dengue-Related Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in an Adult: A Case Report and Brief Update.

Dengue virus is an arbovirus transmitted through the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes. Many unusual clinical features are being reported in dengue. Dengue complicated with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare but potentially fatal condition.

Mucoid Degeneration of Posterior Cruciate Ligament - A Case Study.

Introduction: Mucoid degeneration of the cruciate ligament is a well-known entity, but symptomatic lesions are rare. It is even rarer to find symptomatic posterior cruciate ligament mucoid degeneration than the anterior cruciate ligament.

Case Report: A 63-year-old male presented to our hospital complaining of posterior knee pain was induced when the knee approached full flexion without episodes of trauma, despite conservative treatment over the preceding 8 months, his symptoms persisted.

Total Hip Arthroplasty for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: A Mid-term Follow-Up in Patients From Northern India.

Introduction: Osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) is a disabling condition of the hip joint with multifactorial etiology and is associated with genetic predilection and exposure to certain risk factors most commonly being chronic alcohol or steroid intake. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains the gold standard for end-stage femoral head osteonecrosis. The outcome after the surgery is mainly affected by age, activity levels and other factors that affect the development of ONFH.

Nanotechnology for boosting ovarian cancer immunotherapy.

Ovarian cancer, often referred to as the "silent killer," is notoriously difficult to detect in its early stages, leading to a poor prognosis for many patients. Diagnosis is often delayed until the cancer has advanced, primarily due to its ambiguous and frequently occurring clinical symptoms. Ovarian cancer leads to more deaths than any other cancer of the female reproductive system.

Seasonal variations in soil characteristics control microbial respiration and carbon use under tree plantations in the middle gangetic region.

Seasonal variations directly impact the biochemical and microbial properties of the soil, influence carbon and nutrient cycling within the soil system. Soils under tree plantation (TP) are rich in organic matter and microbial population, making them more susceptible to seasonal variation. We studied the effect of seasonal variations in soil chemical properties (pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN), C/N ratio etc) and microclimate (moisture and temperature) on microbial respiration (SR), biomass, and carbon (C) utilization efficiency under 13 years old Kadamb ( Miq.
