Development and Validation of a Yoga-Based Intervention for Speech Dysfunction and Speech Difficulties Among Patients With Parkinson's Disease.

Introduction Parkinson's disease (PD) is primarily thought to be brought on by the death of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta of the basal ganglia. Communication difficulties are a common symptom of PD, affecting both motor speech and language systems. These challenges significantly impact the quality of life by reducing participation in communication, leading to social withdrawal, and increasing the risk of social isolation and stigma among individuals with PD.

Impact of cartoon-animated video, caregiver-supervised training, and pamphlet on plaque control, oral hygiene status, and oral hygiene knowledge, attitude, and practices in orphaned adolescents: A randomized controlled trial.

Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of cartoon animated video, caregiver-supervised training, and pamphlet-based oral health education on plaque control, oral hygiene status, and oral health knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) among orphaned adolescents with plaque-induced gingivitis.

Methods: A total of ninety adolescents were randomly selected and allocated into three different groups. Group A received the pamphlet (n = 30), Group B received the cartoon animated video (n = 30), and Group C received the caregiver-supervised training (n = 30).

Enhancing diabetic retinopathy and macular edema detection through multi scale feature fusion using deep learning model.

Background: This work tackles the growing problem of early identification of diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema. The deep neural network design utilizes multi-scale feature fusion to improve automated diagnostic accuracy. Methods This approach uses convolutional neural networks (CNN) and is designed to combine higher-level semantic inputs with low-level textural characteristics.

Effects of double diffusion and induced magnetic field on convective flow of a Casson nanofluid over a stretching surface.

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows have several applications in a wide area of engineering such as industrialized processes, including generating MHD electrical power, processing of magnetic materials, etc. The present examination focuses on incorporating the induced magnetic field (IMF) and multiple slips on the convective MHD Casson nanofluid flow over an elongating sheet with Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects. Heat source/sink, non-linear radiation, and suction/injection impacts are added to strengthen the study.

Anterolateral Thigh Flap for Abdominal Wall Defect After Debridement for Meleney's With Fournier's Gangrene: A Case Report of a Rare Outcome.

Meleney's gangrene is a synergistic polymicrobial infection of the anterior abdominal wall causing rapidly progressive necrotizing fasciitis of skin and subcutaneous tissues. When combined with Fournier's gangrene, the mortality rates are higher. Here, we discuss a case of Meleney's with Fournier's gangrene managed with appropriate antibiotics and extensive wound debridement, followed by a successful split-thickness skin grafting of the lower anterior abdominal wall and scrotum.
