Investigation and Characterization of Eco-Technological Synthesis of Spherical TiO Nanoparticles from Thalassia hemprichi and Analysis of Biomedical Properties.

In this present investigation, plant-mediated synthesis of titanium oxide (TiO) nanoparticles was synthesized from seagrass (Thalassia hemprichi) using the hot plate combustion method (HPCM). Synthesized TiO nanoparticles optical, functional, structural, and morphology properties were analyzed by UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). SEM analysis confirmed the spherical shape of the TiO nanoparticles were observed in various sizes, viz.

Relation of Dietary Practices and Academic Achievement Among School-Going Children in Kattankulathur Block, Chengalpattu District, Tamil Nadu.

Background Dietary practices play a crucial role in the overall development of school-going children, potentially influencing their academic performance. Nutrition is a fundamental component of children's overall health and development, influencing both physical growth and cognitive functions. School-going children are particularly vulnerable to the effects of their diet, as it impacts their ability to concentrate, learn, and perform academically.

Catheter-Based Fontan Completion Without Prior Surgical Preparation: Is This the Way Forward?

We report 3 cases of transcatheter Fontan completion in conventional Glenn anastomosis patients without surgical preparation by creating a tunnel between the pulmonary artery and right atrium. Cavocaval anastomosis is established by placing a covered stent graft within the scaffold created with the uncovered stents at the pulmonary artery-right atrium and inferior vena cava-right atrium junction.
