Differential gene expression profile in treated human gingival keratinocytes and their role in the development of HNSCC.

Background: Periodontitis is considered to be one of the major risk factors associated with cancers of the oral cavity. Periodontogenic pathogens such as and are the important pathogens associated with periodontitis. Chronic exposure to bacterial components induces changes in the nearby cells.

Implementation of high step up converter using RBFN MPPT controller for fuel cell based electric vehicle application.

Fuel cell-based electric vehicles (EVs) are gaining popularity in the automotive industry due to strict carbon emissions and fuel efficiency regulations. Fuel cells have inherently low voltage characteristics, making it challenging to interface with EV drive systems. This work proposes a unique topology implementing a non-isolated high step-up DC-DC converter to integrate the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel (PEMF) cell with the EV motor drive.

A Comparative Study of Choledochoduodenostomy Versus Open Choledochotomy With T Tube Placement in a Hospital Lacking Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography.

Background: Choledocholithiasis, or stones in the common bile duct (CBD), has two types: primary stones that form in the CBD and secondary stones that migrate from the gallbladder. Management includes endoscopic, laparoscopic, and open surgical methods. In India, the availability of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and laparoscopic surgery is limited often necessitating open procedures.

Incidence of Carotid Wall Irregularities in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients: A Descriptive Analysis.

Background Carotid wall abnormalities are significant predictors of cardiovascular events, including ischemic stroke. Identifying the clinical and biochemical risk factors associated with these abnormalities can aid in early intervention and prevention strategies. This study aimed to assess the association between lipid profiles, age, gender, smoking habits, hypertension, and carotid wall abnormalities in patients.
