Exploring the Association Between Physical Fitness (High Intensity and Low Intensity) and the Incidence of Temporomandibular Disorders: A Comparative Study.

Background: Temporomandibular joint disorders affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory muscles, and associated structures. Symptoms include TMJ pain, limited jaw movement, muscle tenderness, and referred pain. Physical activity can alleviate musculoskeletal pain.

Synthesis of fluorinated spiro-1,3-oxazines and thiazines Selectfluor-mediated intramolecular cyclization.

A fluorination-induced intramolecular cyclization for the synthesis of fluoro-substituted spiro-1,3-oxazine and spiro-1,3-thiazine derivatives is described. -(2-(Cyclohex-1-en-1-yl)ethyl)benzamide and benzothioamide are used as the substrates, and the cationic fluorinating agent Selectfluor works as the fluoride source. The reaction yields a single diastereomer.

Primary oral histoplasmosis in an immunocompetent host masquerading as malignancy.

is known to cause deep mycotic infections, the primary site being pulmonary, and may disseminate in immunosuppressed patients. Oral presentation is usually a part of disseminated disease however may rarely occur as an isolated event. Extensive literature search has shown that only 17 cases of primary oral histoplasmosis in immunocompetent hosts have been reported from India to date.

Microplastic sources, formation, toxicity and remediation: a review.

Microplastic pollution is becoming a major issue for human health due to the recent discovery of microplastics in most ecosystems. Here, we review the sources, formation, occurrence, toxicity and remediation methods of microplastics. We distinguish ocean-based and land-based sources of microplastics.

Comparison of Outcomes of Donor Lymphocyte Infusions With or Without Lenalidomide in Patients with Hematological Malignancies Post Allogeneic HSCT.

Outcomes with DLI alone for post-transplant relapsed hematological malignancies are poor especially in acute leukemias. Addition of immunomodulatory drugs to DLI may augment GVL effect. Use of lenalidomide with DLI to augment GVL has not been previously reported.
