Calcium phosphate nanoclusters modify periodontium remodeling and minimize orthodontic relapse.

Orthodontic relapse is one of the most prevalent concerns of orthodontic therapy. Relapse results in patients' teeth reverting towards their pretreatment positions, which increases the susceptibility to functional problems, dental disease, and substantially increases the financial burden for retreatment. This phenomenon is thought to be induced by rapid remodeling of the periodontal ligament (PDL) in the early stages and poor bone quality in the later stages.

Comparison of Low-Dose Non-contrast CT in Detecting Anatomical and Surgically Important Variants of Paranasal Sinuses to Standard Dose Non-contrast CT: Experience from a Tertiary Care Hospital in Sub-Himalayan Region of Northern India.

Computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for diagnosing sinusitis and anatomical variations and a guide for paranasal sinus (PNS) surgeries. High doses of radiation lead to increased risk of head and neck malignancies, radiation-induced cataracts, hypothyroidism, and hyperthyroidism. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of low-dose CT as compared to standard-dose CT in the identification of anatomical variants of paranasal sinus and rhinosinusitis.

African savanna raptors show evidence of widespread population collapse and a growing dependence on protected areas.

The conversion of natural habitats to farmland is a major cause of biodiversity loss and poses the greatest extinction risk to birds worldwide. Tropical raptors are of particular concern, being relatively slow-breeding apex predators and scavengers, whose disappearance can trigger extensive cascading effects. Many of Africa's raptors are at considerable risk from habitat conversion, prey-base depletion and persecution, driven principally by human population expansion.

Comparative evaluation of milk proteins and oil-seed-cake-derived proteins extracted by chemical and biological methods for obesity management.

Background: In light of the exponential rise in global population, there is a critical requirement to reduce food waste on a global scale. According to studies, agricultural wastes such as oil-seed cakes offer great nutritional value. Acid precipitation (A) and alkaline extraction methods (traditional methods) were used to extract protein from oil-seed cakes; however, both procedures are linked to decreased protein quality and quantity, which prompted the development of a novel strategy known as the biological/microbial/probiotic (B) method.

Review of Neurological Manifestations of SARS-CoV-2.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can affect any part of the neuraxis. Many neurological conditions have been attributed to be caused by SARS-CoV-2, namely encephalopathy (acute necrotizing encephalopathy and encephalopathy with reversible splenial lesions), seizures, stroke, cranial nerve palsies, meningoencephalitis, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), transverse myelitis (long and short segment), Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and its variants, polyneuritis cranialis, optic neuritis (ON), plexopathy, myasthenia gravis (MG), and myositis. The pathophysiology differs depending on the time frame of presentation.

Influence of exopolysaccharide EPSKar1-iron complexation on iron bioavailability and alleviating iron deficiency anaemia in Wistar rats.

The prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia is a significant issue worldwide, affecting individuals of all ages and often associated with inadequate iron bioavailability. Despite the use of ferrous salt supplements to address anaemia, their limited bioaccessibility and bioavailability in human GIT and adverse impact on food properties remain significant challenges. Hence, this study aims to explore the iron chelation mechanism of an exopolysaccharide EPSKar1 to enhance iron bioaccessibility, bioavailability, and anti-anaemic effects using cell culture and an anaemic rat model.

Copper Cobalt Selenide as a Bifunctional Electrocatalyst for the Selective Reduction of CO to Carbon-Rich Products and Alcohol Oxidation.

Copper cobalt selenide, CuCoSe, has been identified as an efficient catalyst for electrocatalytic CO reduction, exhibiting high selectivity for carbon-rich and value-added products. Achieving product selectivity is one of the primary challenges for CO reduction reactions, and the catalyst surface plays a pivotal role in determining the reaction pathway and, more importantly, the intermediate adsorption kinetics leading to C1- or C2+-based products. In this research, the catalyst surface was designed to optimize the adsorption of the intermediate CO (carbonyl) group on the catalytic site such that its dwell time on the surface was long enough for further reduction to carbon-rich products but not strong enough for surface passivation and poisoning.

Calcium Phosphate Delivery Systems for Regeneration and Biomineralization of Mineralized Tissues of the Craniofacial Complex.

Calcium phosphate (CaP)-based materials have been extensively used for mineralized tissues in the craniofacial complex. Owing to their excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, and inherent osteoconductive nature, their use as delivery systems for drugs and bioactive factors has several advantages. Of the three mineralized tissues in the craniofacial complex (bone, dentin, and enamel), only bone and dentin have some regenerative properties that can diminish due to disease and severe injuries.
