Comparative Analysis of Displacements and Stress Produced by Square and Rectangular Bracket Slot With Incremental Torque: A Finite Element Analysis Study.

Introduction: This study aimed to perform a comparative analysis of stresses and displacements with incremental torque on the maxillary incisors and surrounding cortical bone using conventional metal brackets with rectangular slots and passive self-ligating brackets with square slots using finite element analysis (FEA).

Materials And Methods: An in vitro FEA study was conducted, in which a three-dimensional (3D) model of the maxilla was built using ANSYS software version 18 (ANSYS Inc., Canonsburg, PA).

Impact of Migraine on Family Members - A Cross-sectional Study in Southern Part of India.

Background: Migraine is a disabling primary headache disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of headache. Migraine not only imposes a burden on the sufferer but also imposes a burden on their family members too. A holistic approach is more essential in the management of migraine and family members should also be included in the management of migraine.

Covalently bonded interface in polymer/boron nitride nanosheet composite toward enhanced mechanical and thermal behaviour.

This experimental study aimed to enhance the mechanical and thermal properties of BN (hexagonal boron nitride) nanosheet-reinforced high-density polyethylene by functionalizing its interface. The challenges associated with this nanocomposites are its poor dispersion and weak interface. Accordingly, to improve the load transfer at the interface, BN nanosheets were chemically modified with silane functional groups ((3-aminopropyl)tri-ethoxy silane), making it possible to form covalent bonds between the maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene and nanosheet.

Stearyl palmitate a multi-target inhibitor against breast cancer: in-silico, in-vitro & in-vivo approach.

Multi-target inhibitors are currently trending in the pharmaceutical research, as they possess increased efficacy and reduced toxicity. In this study multi-target inhibitors for breast cancer are explored from a curated list of natural products, i.e.
