Introduction: The marine habitat is a plentiful source of diverse, active compounds that are extensively utilised for their medicinal properties. Pharmaceutical trends have currently changed towards utilising a diverse range of goods derived from the marine environment.
Method: This study aimed to examine the inhibitory effects of bioactive chemicals derived from marine algae and bacteria.
Despite ongoing advancements in drug design and developments, breast cancer remains a serious and devastating disease and is ranked as the second most common illness in women. Breast cancer rates have increased significantly during the last 40 years. This necessitates the development of novel treatment techniques.

Methods: This in vitro study involved 45 extracted human teeth (central and lateral incisors), randomly assigned to three groups (n=15 each): Group I (nano-bristle), Group II (ultra-soft bristle), and Group III (soft bristle). Each specimen underwent 10,000 brushing cycles with a standardized 2 N force to simulate one year of brushing.
Article Synopsis
- Phaeohyphomycotic cysts are subcutaneous infections commonly found in immunocompromised patients, presenting as plaques or nodules.
- Diagnosis involves histopathological and mycological tests to identify the organism.
- Treatment typically includes surgical excision and systemic antifungal medication, with this report highlighting a rare case in an immunocompetent person.
Aim: This randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the impact of different incision types (oblique, vertical, and horizontal) for hamstring graft harvest on sensory disturbances and functional outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.
Methods: A total of 118 patients were randomized into three groups: oblique incision (n = 40), vertical incision (n = 40), and horizontal incision (n = 38). Sensory deficits were assessed using Von Frey Filaments at three weeks, three months, and six months postoperatively.
