Article Synopsis
  • Rice is a vital food source for over 50% of the global population, but its high glycemic index poses challenges for diabetic and obese individuals, necessitating the development of low-GI rice varieties through understanding starch biogenesis.
  • A study of 200 rice genotypes focused on starch content and categorized them into three groups based on amylose content, leading to the selection of specific genotypes for further analysis of resistant starch levels, protein content, and fatty acid profiles.
  • Results showed varying levels of resistant starch and fatty acids, with specific genotypes demonstrating significant enzymatic activity related to starch biosynthesis, highlighting genetic variations that can influence rice quality traits.

Article Synopsis
  • * Orthodontic treatment can help correct misaligned teeth but may also contribute to plaque accumulation, leading to conditions such as gingival overgrowth and inflammation.
  • * A case study of a 21-year-old female with anterior maxillary GE related to orthodontics illustrates the need for surgical intervention to improve esthetics.

Acute oxalate nephropathy is a rare but important cause of severe acute kidney injury. We report here two cases presenting as unexplained AKI which were confirmed histologically to be due to acute oxalate nephropathy. Dietary oxalate or its precursor vitamin C was the cause of oxalate exposure in both of these cases.
