Article Synopsis
- Research shows losing teeth can emotionally mimic grief, and there’s limited study on emotions in dental contexts, except for the 'treatment alliance.'
- This paper examines how the treatment alliance affects dentist-patient interactions through data from interviews and observations of 34 participants discussing tooth loss experiences.
- Findings highlight that the treatment alliance is crucial for positive health outcomes, emphasizing the dental team's emotional engagement with patients, while noting that not all successful outcomes require direct emotional management.
Article Synopsis
- * ABO blood group mismatch and alloimmunization can significantly affect the success of HCT in SCD patients, leading to complications like hemolysis and graft failure.
- * This study analyzed data from 194 SCD patients over 14 years old who underwent HCT and focused on the effects of RBC incompatibility and alloimmunization on transplant outcomes and overall survival.
Article Synopsis
- The study explores environmentally friendly methods for synthesizing copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) using plant extracts from Azadirachta indica and Simmondsia chinensis.
- CuO NPs were confirmed through color change and UV-visible spectroscopy, showing antibacterial properties against various clinical bacteria, including MRSA, with effective concentrations ranging from 62.5 to 125 µg/ml.
- The findings suggest CuO NPs as potential alternative antibiotics and support their application in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors globally.
Article Synopsis
- This study examines the effectiveness of natural products like apple cider vinegar and tea tree oil against multidrug-resistant bacteria, specifically Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
- Through biochemical tests and genetic analysis, the researchers identified antibiotic-resistant strains and their susceptibility to natural extracts.
- The results indicate that apple cider vinegar and tea tree oil have significant antibacterial properties, especially against urinary and vaginal tract infections caused by these antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Background: Discontinuation of TKI therapy and treatment-free remission (TFR) have become new goals for chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML). The aim of this study was to estimate the TFR post discontinuation of TKI therapy at 3 tertiary-care centers.
Patients And Methods: CP-CML patients aged ≥16 years who had an attempt to discontinue TKI therapy till June 2022, were eligible.
