Cardiac Autonomic Neuropathy in Prediabetes: A Case-Control Study.

Introduction: Early detection and diagnosis of diabetic autonomic neuropathy, especially cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN), have gained attention recently because of their elevated cardiovascular mortality risk. Although the connection between type 2 diabetes mellitus and autonomic neuropathy is well established, evidence is emerging that the association might predate the stage of prediabetes.

Objective: The present study was undertaken to compare the prevalence of CAN in prediabetes versus that in normoglycemic controls.

Correlation of p53 Expression with Histopathological and Immunohistochemical Features of Human Papillomavirus in Oral Leukoplakia.

Background: Oral cancer is strongly associated with the habit of tobacco chewing, alcohol, and betel quid consumption in India. However, sometimes, majority of the population develop oral cancer without exposure to these risk factors and are sometimes cautious about their fitness, suggesting that additional causes such as genetic predisposition, diet, and viral agents may be associated which need to explored.

Aims And Objectives: The aim of this study was to establish a possible correlation between clinical types of leukoplakia with their histopathological features of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and the presence or absence of HPV and expression of p53through immunohistochemistry (IHC).

Multiple Compond Odontomas in the Jaws: A Rare Case Report.

Odontomas are tumours of odontogenic origin. In these tumours both the epithelial and mesenchymal cells undergo differentiation to form enamel and dentin with variable amounts of cementum and pulp tissue. The odontomas represent a hamartoma rather than a neoplasm.

The Solitary Variant of Mandibular Intraosseous Neurofibroma: Report of a Rare Entity.

Neurofibroma (NF) is a benign neoplasm derived from peripheral nerve cells. NF may extend either as a solitary lesion or as part of a generalized syndrome of neurofibromatosis. Intraorally, the intraosseous variant of neurofibroma is a very rare tumor.

Tumor Associated Tissue Eosinophilia in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Histo-Chemical Analysis.

Background: Tumor associated tissue eosinophilia (TATE) is believed to play a significant role in biological behavior of the carcinoma. Eosinophils are involved in immune reaction. Various studies have been carried out regarding their role in tumor progression or regulation.
