Transition from point A to volume based image guided brachytherapy across a network of centers in India through workshop and mentoring.

Aim: To demonstrate how workshop and mentoring across a network of radiotherapy centers helped in transitioning from point A to volume-based image guided brachytherapy in carcinoma cervix.

Materials And Methods: Based on discussion with different centers across the network, the lapses in cervical cancer treatment were identified and a workshop was designed to change the practice pattern. The main focus of the workshop was to streamline EBRT dose prescription protocols and implement volume based image guided brachytherapy through mentoring and hands on training.

Fortunate molecules boost signal to background ratio and localization precision in correlation based single molecule localization microscopy.

Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) can decipher fine details that are otherwise impossible using diffraction-limited microscopy. Often, the reconstructed super-resolved images suffer from noise, strong background and are prone to false detections that may impact quantitative imaging. To overcome these limitations, we propose a technique (corrSMLM) that recognizes and detects fortunate molecules (molecules with long blinking cycles) from the recorded data.

Deracemization of Benzoin and its Derivatives via Kinetic, Dynamic Kinetic, Aerobic Oxidative Kinetic and Reagent-mediated resolution.

The production of enantiomerically pure compounds remains a vital and valuable objective in modern organic chemistry due to their broad applications in fields such as biosensing, optics, electronics, photonics, catalysis, nanotechnology, and drug or DNA delivery. Optically pure α-hydroxy ketones, in particular, are key structural components in many drugs and natural products with significant biological activity. Among these, benzoin type α-hydroxy ketones, which possess two adjacent functional groups, a carbonyl and a hydroxy group, are especially important.

Nanoparticles Induced Biomimetic Remineralization of Acid-Etched Dentin.

Statement Of The Problem: Dentin bonding with etch-and-rinse adhesives involves demineralizing the 5-8µm of the surface dentin to create micro space for resin infiltration. The presence of continuous fluid movement in dentin tubules and positive pulpal pressure prevents complete water replacement by resin monomers. This results in areas of demineralized dentin, which contain collagen fibers without resin infiltration.

Assessment of Self-Medication Practices and Knowledge Among Medical Students in Chengalpattu District: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Introduction: The practice of self-medication is wherein individuals initiate the use of medications without consulting a healthcare professional. College life is a period marked by academic, social, and personal changes. Due to their greater freedom and the pressure of academic success, students face various health issues.
