The Relationship Between Anthropometric Indices of Obesity and Sleep Disturbances in Young Adults.

Background: Sleep is vital for maintaining overall health and influencing various physiological and psychological processes. Disruptions in sleep quality are linked to adverse health outcomes, including obesity and cardiovascular disease, particularly among young adults who are often exposed to stress and lifestyle changes. This study investigates the relationship between anthropometric indices of obesity measured through body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and waist circumference (WC) and sleep disturbances in young adults.

Predictive factors and risk scoring system for acute kidney injury (aki) in sick neonates-a prospective cohort study.

Unlabelled: Neonatal AKI (acute kidney injury) is an underreported entity in sick neonates associated with significant morbidity and mortality. This was a prospective cohort study, to study the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of AKI among sick neonates. We included sick inborn neonates admitted at a level III neonatal intensive care unit.

Comparative Assessment of Working Length Determination: Apex Locators versus Endomotor with Built-in Apex Locator in Single-Rooted Permanent Teeth.

Aim: To compare the effectiveness of Apex Locators and Endomotor with built-in Apex Locators for determining the working length in root canal treatment.

Methods: A total of 120 patients were randomly assigned to three groups: Group 1 (Root ZX Mini Apex Locator), Group 2 (Minipex Apex Locator), and Group 3 (Endopilot Endomotor with built-in Apex Locator). Working length was determined using respective devices, followed by canal preparation and radiographic confirmation with a master cone.
