Article Synopsis
  • Immune function declines with age, making it difficult to identify individuals at risk for immune-related issues, especially those with reactivated latent viral infections.
  • The study focused on detecting certain human herpes viruses in urine as a potential way to identify immune-compromised individuals, particularly using T cell receptor excision circle (TREC) data as an indicator.
  • While no clear one-to-one correlation was found between TREC values and individual viruses, a significant link was observed for males; specifically, low TREC values correlated with the detection of three or more different herpes viruses, suggesting declining immune function.

Swarm intelligence, evolved from the self-organized behavior of social insects, has become an essential method under artificial intelligence for handling complex and dynamic issues. This study visualizes and analyzes the use of swarm intelligence in healthcare, focusing on its role in managing rising medical data complexity, optimizing diagnostic and therapeutic solutions, and supporting personalized healthcare. The analysis, based on literature from Scopus (2003-2024) using Biblioshiny and VOSviewer, reveals a strong increase in publications since 2017, with central themes around disease diagnosis, treatment optimization, medical image analysis, and real-time patient monitoring through frameworks like the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and swarm learning.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the clinical characteristics and outcomes of trigeminal schwannoma (TS) surgical resections across two institutions from 2004 to 2022, analyzing data from 30 patients.
  • Most patients were middle-aged, with common symptoms including sensory loss and headaches; tumors primarily consisted of mixed cystic-solid types with an average diameter of 3.3 cm.
  • Although 87% of patients reported symptom improvements after surgery, there were notable risks, with 17% experiencing temporary and 10% experiencing permanent cranial nerve deficits.

Article Synopsis
  • * Four groups of participants (20 teeth each) were randomly assigned different methods of caries removal, and their working times and pain levels were recorded during the procedures.
  • * Results indicated that conventional drilling took the least time but caused the most pain, while the BCD combined with air polishing was effective in reducing pain while maintaining reasonable excavation times, suggesting alternative methods may offer better patient comfort.

Objectives: This study aims to correlate caries-causing microorganism load, lactic acid estimation, and blood groups to high caries risk in diabetic and non-diabetic individuals and low caries risk in healthy individuals.

Materials And Methods: This study includes 30 participants divided into 3 groups: Group A, High-risk caries diabetic individuals; Group B, High-risk caries non-diabetic individuals; and Group C, Low-risk caries individuals. The medical condition, oral hygiene, and caries risk assessment (American Dental Association classification and International Caries Detection and Assessment System scoring) were documented.
