Entangled light sources for illuminating objects offer advantages over conventional illumination methods by enhancing the detection sensitivity of reflecting objects. The core of the quantum advantage lies in effectively exploiting quantum correlations to isolate noise and detect objects with low reflectivity. This work experimentally demonstrates the benefits of using polarization-entangled photon pairs for quantum illumination and shows that the quantum correlation measure, using CHSH value and normalized CHSH value, is robust against losses, noise, and depolarization.

Materials And Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among 135 schoolchildren aged 7-11 years, with 45 children in each group. Group I included children with completely erupted permanent mandibular central incisors, group II included children with completely erupted permanent mandibular central and lateral incisors, and group III included children with completely erupted permanent mandibular central incisors, lateral incisors, and canines.
The microbiome regulates mammalian immune responses from early life to adulthood. Antigen presentation, orchestrating these responses, integrates commensal and pathogenic signals. However, the temporal and spatial specificity of microbiome impacts on antigen presentation and downstream tolerance versus inflammation remain incompletely understood.

- The study explores the prevalence of ADHD in mothers and their children in western Tamil Nadu, finding rates of 10.65% in mothers and 10.57% in children.
- It reveals that mothers with ADHD are more likely to neglect their children's dental health and often delay necessary dental treatments.
- Results indicate that mothers with ADHD have a significantly higher risk of having children with the same condition, affecting the children's oral health negatively.
