Article Synopsis
  • The study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to consolidate literature on the biomechanical principles of the spine-pelvis-hip complex, particularly in the context of total hip arthroplasty (THA) for patients with and without spinal disorders.
  • The research included articles that assessed various spinopelvic parameters in THA patients, analyzing data from 218 abstracts and resulting in the selection of 4 relevant studies with 439 participants.
  • The findings indicated specific average values for sacral slope, ante inclination, and spinopelvic tilt in different positions, revealing proportional changes in these measures post-surgery.

Article Synopsis
  • Petrochemical wastewater contains harmful organic and inorganic pollutants, posing risks to soil, water, and human health.
  • This study aims to recover valuable aromatics (like benzene and toluene) and water from this wastewater while removing toxic heavy metals through a specific treatment process using sodium bicarbonate.
  • The effectiveness of the process was confirmed through Aspen Hysys simulation and lab experiments, achieving over 99.5% removal of heavy metals, highlighting the potential for recycling and sustainability in petrochemical industries.

Background: Stillbirths are a major global health concern. Half of stillbirths occur during intrapartum period, mostly in low- and middle-income countries of sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Achieving a stillbirth rate of less than 12 per 1000 births by 2030 is the global target of Every Newborn Action Plan and Sustainable Development Goals.

Aim: Pain management is a cornerstone in the practice of endodontics. However, optimum pain control has been a challenge in cases of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis resulting in a "hot tooth." Thus, the objective of the study is to assess the knowledge and attitude and to determine the clinical protocols of "hot tooth" management followed among general practitioners and specialists.

The Sampar Coalfield in Northeastern India is a source of plentiful coal reserves, which are burnt for energy production and industrial applications, resulting in the release of pollutants such as sulphur , arsenic, and lead, which are hazardous to the environment and public health. In this work, samples from the Sampar coalfield have been analyzed to understand the origin, distribution, and various forms of sulphur and their ability to detect toxic heavy metals. The total sulphur concentration ranged from 4.

The geochemistry of fly ash produced from the combustion of coal at thermal power plants presents a significant challenge for disposal and environmental impact due to its complex mineralogical and elemental composition. The objective of this study was to investigate the mineralogical and elemental distribution of thirty lignite samples from the Barmer Basin using advanced techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). XRD analysis revealed the presence of minerals such as haematite (FeO), nepheline, anhydrite, magnesite, andalusite, spinel and anatase.

Additives provide substantial improvement in the properties of composites. Although bio-based composites are preferred over synthetic polymer and metal-based composites, they do not have the requisite properties to meet specific needs. Hence, organic, inorganic and metallic additives are included to improve the properties of bio-based composites.

Although India's large iron ore reserves are well known, there are still few studies and research on iron ore prospecting in smaller deposits or the deposits with lower grade. Remote sensing concepts are useful to target for mineral exploration, since it covers a large area at low cost. In this research spectral remote sensing and digital image processing of ASTER data to locate and delineate the regions with iron oxide-bearing soils in granulite terrain at Nainnarmalai (southern India) that has hypothetical reserve 8.

Coal and coal-based products (by-products), along with other fossil fuels should be used with caution because of their impact on human health and the global climate. In the light of the environmental impact these fossil fuels cause, it's essential to understand the elemental configuration of coal-derived samples and their impact on the ecosystem. Some reports in past have described, geochemical and mineralogical physiognomies of fly-ash and their impact on the environment.

Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) arising from joint arthroplasty are dreadful, yet difficult to diagnose in subtle cases. Definite diagnosis requires microbiological culture to confirm the causative pathogens. However, up to 40% of culture-negative PJI needs other surrogate biomarkers such as human neutrophil peptide 1 (HNP 1) to improve diagnostic accuracy or gauge therapeutic responses.

In coal, total sulphur content is not the only important factor for the industry, but also the forms of sulphur and their distributions should be considered before utilizing any coal for a particular use. In Jharia and Raniganj coalfields, sulphur is present in the forms of organic sulphur (OS), pyritic sulphur (PS), and sulphate sulphur (SS). In this perspective, the present study aims to know the different forms of sulphur in coking and non-coking coals of Jharia and Raniganj coalfields.

Introduction: Pattern of invasion (POI) in scoring system of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) can predict local recurrence and overall survival rate. Argyrophilic nucleolar organizer region (AGNOR) counts are considered to reflect the biosynthetic and nucleolar activity of a cell and thus serve as an indicator of the rapidity of the cell cycle thereby indicating the proliferative index of the tumor. It is implied that higher tumor associated tissue eosinophilia (TATE) showed lesser venous invasion, lymph node metastasis and clinical recurrence.
