Introduction: Cystic echinococcosis is a widely endemic helminthic disease caused by infection with metacestodes (larval stage) of the Echinococcus granulosus tapeworm, which is transmitted by dogs and found on every continent except Antarctica. We sought to review the life cycle, epidemiology, symptoms, diagnostic methods, and treatment of Echinococcus granulosus of the liver.
Methods: A comprehensive review was conducted using Medline/PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, and the Web of Science accessed between 1990 and 2024.
Background: Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women globally and has a strong association with Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Stratified mucinproducing intraepithelial lesion (SMILE), a variant of Adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), is a rare cervical precancer lesion that is often missed or detected incidentally.
Case Presentation: The present case report briefs the finding of a 39-year-old woman who presented to the gynecological outpatient department with complaints of vaginal discharge for 6-8 months.
Introduction: Acid ceramidase (hereafter referred as ASAH1) is an enzyme in sphingolipid metabolism that converts pro-survival ceramide into sphingosine. ASAH1 has been shown to be overexpressed in certain cancers. However, the role of ASAH1 in colorectal cancer still remain elusive.

Materials And Methods: The model of the tooth was designed using "computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing" followed by generating the "Mesh" of the tooth to analyze the stress caused by applying vertical and oblique loads of 100N and 40N, respectively, in cubical nodes for both PEEK and metal endodontic post-based Richmond crown. The "3-dimensional von Mises criteria" was used to compare stresses of both elements using FEA.
Cardamonin is a naturally occurring chalcone, majorly from the Zingiberaceae family, which includes a wide range of spices from India. Herein, we investigated the anti-inflammatory property of cardamonin using different in vitro and in vivo systems. In RAW 264.
