Seasonal observations on the influence of groundwater discharge on meiofaunal assemblages in subterranean estuaries of southwest India.

The submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) into the sea is known to alter various biotic and abiotic properties of coastal waters. However, its influence on the lower trophic levels, namely, meiofauna, is poorly understood. This study highlights the impact of SGD on the density, distribution, and diversity of intertidal meiofaunal communities along the subterranean estuaries (STEs) of the southwest coast of India (Arabian Sea).

Nanoparticles Induced Biomimetic Remineralization of Acid-Etched Dentin.

Statement Of The Problem: Dentin bonding with etch-and-rinse adhesives involves demineralizing the 5-8µm of the surface dentin to create micro space for resin infiltration. The presence of continuous fluid movement in dentin tubules and positive pulpal pressure prevents complete water replacement by resin monomers. This results in areas of demineralized dentin, which contain collagen fibers without resin infiltration.

Breaking the storm: ruxolitinib as a lifeline in refractory hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis with macrophage activation syndrome.

This case report presents the management of a 25-year-old woman with refractory hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) secondary to adult-onset Still's disease. Despite initial treatment with corticosteroids and biologic therapies, including anakinra and tocilizumab, her condition continued to deteriorate, necessitating intensive care unit admission. Following multidisciplinary consultation, ruxolitinib therapy, a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor targeting hyperinflammation, was initiated.

Computational and experimental insights into pharmacological potential: Synthesis, in vitro evaluation, and molecular docking analysis of bioactive urea and thiourea derivatives.

This study delves into the synthesis, in vitro assessment, and molecular docking analysis of bioactive urea and thiourea derivatives, which have garnered significant attention in pharmaceutical chemistry due to their versatile chemical reactivity and potential therapeutic applications One pot synthetic approach was utilized to develop a diverse class of these compounds. Subsequent biological assessments, including antimicrobial assays, demonstrated their pharmacological potential by inhibiting pathogenic microorganisms. Molecular docking analysis offered computational insights into the interactions between these compounds and specific biomolecules, shedding light on their potential mechanisms of action.
