Therapeutic Effects of Autonomic Sensory Meridian Response in Orthodontic Practice: Enhancing Patient Comfort and Well-Being.

Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) is a sensory phenomenon characterized by tingling sensations triggered by specific auditory or visual stimuli, offering a novel approach to anxiety reduction and relaxation. This review explores the therapeutic potential of ASMR in orthodontics by examining its physiological and psychological benefits, neuroscientific basis, and its potential to enhance patient comfort, manage dental anxiety, and improve communication within orthodontic practice. A comprehensive literature review was conducted to evaluate studies on ASMR's physiological, psychological, and clinical effects, focusing on ASMR-induced relaxation, patient-specific triggers, and its integration into orthodontic settings.

Innovative nanocomposites for pollutant capture: Adsorption of rhodamine B dye using polyaniline-coated chitosan trisodium citrate nanocomposites.

Wastewater contamination by organic dyes, especially Rhodamine B (RhB), possess a significant environmental challenge. This study explores a novel bio sorbent for the removal of RhB dye from contaminated water, using chitosan trisodium citrate-modified magnetic nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄@CSTSC@PANI) coated with polyaniline. The nanocomposite was characterized by FT-IR, XRD, HRTEM, SEM, BET surface analysis.

Impact of lack of transportation on access to dental care.

Objectives: Access to healthcare may be influenced by the availability of transportation. Nevertheless, the impact of transportation challenges on access to dental care has not been thoroughly examined. This study investigates the influence of transportation availability on dental care visits, dental cleanings, and exams.

C(sp2)-H Acylation of benzo[h]quinolines at Room Temperature via Aldehyde Autoxidation and Palladium Catalysis Cooperation.

Herein, we report Pd-catalyzed C(sp2)-H acylation using aldehyde as acyl source and O2 as the green oxidant at room temperature. A selective association of acyl radical formed in-situ during aldehyde autoxidation with Pd-catalysis is the key to the process. The reaction afforded products in good yields (up to 82%) and it is scalable.
