A review on forensic analysis of bio fluids (blood, semen, vaginal fluid, menstrual blood, urine, saliva): Spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic technique.

The accurate detection, identification, and analysis of biofluids at crime scenes play a critical role in forensic investigations. Various biofluids, such as blood, semen, vaginal fluid, menstrual blood, urine, and saliva, can be crucial evidence. In a murder case involving a knife attack, for instance, bloodstains from both the victim and perpetrator might be present.

A Simple Surgical Technique for Correction of Varus Deformity in Advanced Osteoarthritis of Knees by Medial Femoral Condylar Sliding Osteotomy-Description of Procedure and short term Outcome-A Prospective Study.

Background: Advanced osteoarthritis of knees with varus deformity consists of attenuation of lateral structures with contracture of the posteromedial structures and formation of medial osteophytes. The conventional step-wise medial and posteromedial release with measured resection may sometimes hinder achievement of perfectly balanced flexion and extension gaps with maintenance of flexion stability, without the use of a constrained prosthesis. Medial femoral epicondylar sliding osteotomy tailors the balancing to the need of the kinematics of the native knee and precludes the use of a constrained implant.

Progress in food packaging applications of biopolymer-nanometal composites - A comprehensive review.

Eco-friendly nanotechnology-enabled biopolymers are one of the novel concepts of packaging materials to substitute traditional synthetic polymers and their composites. This article succinctly reviews the recent developments of introducing additional functionalities to biopolymers using metal and metal oxide nanoparticles. The functionality of metal nanoparticles such as silver, zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, copper oxide, gold, and magnesium oxide, as food packaging materials were discussed.

Cellular Dynamics of Fas-Associated Death Domain in the Regulation of Cancer and Inflammation.

Fas-associated death domain (FADD) is an adaptor protein that predominantly transduces the apoptosis signal from the death receptor (DR) to activate caspases, leading to the initiation of apoptotic signaling and the coordinated removal of damaged, infected, or unwanted cells. In addition to its apoptotic functions, FADD is involved in signaling pathways related to autophagy, cell proliferation, necroptosis, and cellular senescence, indicating its versatile role in cell survival and proliferation. The subcellular localization and intracellular expression of FADD play a crucial role in determining its functional outcomes, thereby highlighting the importance of spatiotemporal mechanisms and regulation.
