Background: Virtual Reality (VR) based diagnostic and therapeutic interventions have opened up new possibilities for addressing the challenges in identifying and treating individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD).

Aim: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials to investigate the impact of Immersive VR techniques on the cognitive, social, and emotional skills of under-18 children and adolescents with ASD.

Methods And Procedures: Four databases were systematically searched as per "Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses" guidelines and assessed six RCTs for further analysis.

A Comparison Between Dexamethasone and Clonidine as Adjuvants to Levobupivacaine in the Supraclavicular Approach to the Brachial Plexus Block: A Double-Blind Study.

Objective:  The objective of this clinical study is to compare the efficacy of adding dexamethasone or clonidine as an adjuvant drug to levobupivacaine in supraclavicular brachial plexus block (BPB) with regard to the onset and duration of sensory and motor blocks along with duration of postoperative analgesia.

Background:  Brachial plexus block (BPB), with or without general anesthesia, has been used widely for multiple upper limb surgical procedures, by virtue of its efficacy in terms of cost-effectiveness, efficiency, safety margins, and good postoperative analgesia. Various adjuvant drugs have been described to potentiate the analgesic effect of local anesthetic agents such as epinephrine, clonidine, dexamethasone, dexmedetomidine, or midazolam.

Burden, Differentials and Causes of Stillbirths in India: A Systematic Review and Meta Analysis.

India contributes the highest absolute number of stillbirths in the world. This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to synthesize the burden, timing and causes of stillbirths in India. Forty-nine reports from 46 studies conducted in 21 Indian states and Union Territories were included.

Comparative Anticancer Study of Cisplatin Drug with Green Synthesized ZnO Nanoparticles on Cervical Squamous Carcinoma (SiHa) Cell Lines.

In this article, we aimed to develop a unique treatment approach to cure cervical cancer without harming healthy normal cells and overcome the limitations of currently available therapies/treatments. Recently, chemotherapeutics based on metal oxides have gained attention as a promising approach for treating cancer. Herein, ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized with the leaf extract of These green synthesized ZnO nanoparticles were used for a cytotoxic study on the cervical squamous carcinoma cell line SiHa and murine macrophage cell line RAW 264.

Coupling ZnO with CuO for efficient organic pollutant removal.

Fabrication of heterojunction semiconductors for the photodegradation of toxic organic dyes under sunlight exposure has earned significant recognition from researchers nowadays. On that account, we have synthesized and explored a comparative photodegradation study of ZnO/CuO nanocomposite with ZnO and CuO nanoparticles. ZnO and CuO nanoparticles have been synthesized by biosynthesis methods using Ficus benghalensis leaf extract.

Synthesis and characterization of NiO/CrO nanocomposite with effective sunlight driven photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes.

In this paper, nanocomposite NiO/CrO has been synthesized by a simple chemical reduction method to study its photocatalytic activity under sunlight irradiation. Various advanced analytical techniques including powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), elemental mapping, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and UV-visible spectroscopy have been utilized to characterize the synthesized NiO/CrO nanocomposite. SEM images show the sheet-shaped morphology of NiO/CrO nanocomposite.

A review on degradation of organic dyes by using metal oxide semiconductors.

The discharge of organic dye pollutants in natural water bodies has put forward a big challenge of providing clean water to a large part of the population. As the population is increasing with time, only underground water is not sufficient to complete the water requirements of everyone everywhere. Purification of wastewater and its reuse is the only way to fulfill the water needs.

Immediate Dental Implants Enriched with L-PRF in the Esthetic Zone.

The aim of this article is to present the clinical application of immediate implant placement with L-PRF and immediate prosthetic loading in anterior esthetic region. A 24-year-old healthy female patient reported with a chief complaint of poor esthetics in the upper front tooth region with retained deciduous teeth. On oral examination, there were retained deciduous teeth (52, 53, and 63) with congenitally missing permanent successors.

Determination of pesticide and phthalate residues in tea by QuEChERS method and their fate in processing.
