The Rarity of Maxillary Osteomyelitis: Insights From a Unique Case Report.

Maxillary osteomyelitis is a rare bone infection and is rarer to come across with the advent of advanced antibiotic therapies. It is often linked to immunocompromised conditions, namely diabetes mellitus, cancer, and chronic alcoholism, as they increase the chances of developing osteomyelitis. We present a rare case of maxillary osteomyelitis along with an infraorbital abscess in a 32-year-old male patient with uncontrolled diabetes.

Resistance to Resilience: Understanding Post-surgical Hormone Therapy in Breast Cancer Care.

Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer affecting women worldwide. Over the years, breast cancer has become a major public health concern, and its incidence is rising globally. The treatment of breast cancer does not stop with surgical intervention, but adjuvant therapies are administered to improve patient outcomes post-surgery based on the type of breast cancer diagnosed.

Immunological Nuances and Complications of Pediatric Organ Transplant: A Narrative Review.

Organ transplantation is considered an exaggerated immune state in which the body reacts in an elaborate cascade of reactions against the lifesaving graft transplanted. Unrepairable organ damage is the main indication for a pediatric patient to undergo a transplant. The host and the donor must fulfill the criteria for a successful transplant to have as few side effects as possible.

Tackling Anemia in Pregnant Women in India: Reviewing the Obstacles and Charting a Path Forward.

This study examined the obstacles and factors influencing the prevention and treatment of anemia among pregnant women in India. Maintaining antenatal care is essential, leading to favorable birth outcomes and healthier offspring. However, inadequate consumption of essential nutrients is widespread among pregnant women, particularly in lower and middle-income economies such as India, contributing to high maternal and infant mortality rates.

The Application of Deep Learning to Electroencephalograms, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Implants for the Detection of Epileptic Seizures: A Narrative Review.

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures affecting millions worldwide. Medically intractable seizures in epilepsy patients are not only detrimental to the quality of life but also pose a significant threat to their safety. Outcomes of epilepsy therapy can be improved by early detection and intervention during the interictal window period.

Scientific Evolution of Artificial Heart Valves: A Narrative Review.

Cardiovascular disorders have always been the top contributors to the number of mortality occurring worldwide. But the last few decades have seen a drop in those numbers as the lives of millions of people have been saved due to ground-breaking advances in both therapeutic and surgical treatment modalities. Achieving this level of scientific glory in cardiology was a challenging feat.

Calcaneal Spurs: A Potentially Debilitating Disorder.

Feet are often the most neglected part of the body, all the while being the highly dependent part of daily work and mobility. The lack of attention to them can lead to painful conditions such as calcaneal spurs and associated conditions. Calcaneal spurs are bony projections that form around the calcaneal bone, the strongest, most significant, and posterior-most bone in the feet.

Diet and Vitiligo: The Story So Far.

Vitiligo is an acquired skin pigmentation disease with a global burden of 0.5 to 2 percent of the population. Vitiligo therapy frequently poses a difficulty, which has sparked interest in alternative treatment modalities, including multivitamins and herbal supplementation.

The Actions of Lithium on Glaucoma and Other Senile Neurodegenerative Diseases Through GSK-3 Inhibition: A Narrative Review.

Glaucoma can be described as a set of progressive optic neuropathies. They cause a gradual, irreversible loss of the field of view, which concludes in complete blindness. Evidence suggests that patients who have glaucoma face a greater risk of suffering from senile dementia.

Analyzing the Complicated Connection Between Intestinal Microbiota and Cardiovascular Diseases.

Relentless human curiosity to understand the basis of every aspect of medical science has led humanity to unlock the deepest secrets about the physiology of human existence and, in the process, has reached milestones that a century ago could only be imagined. Recent ground-breaking breakthroughs have helped scientists and physicians all over the world to update the scientific basis of diseases and hence further improve treatment outcomes. According to recent studies, scientists have found a link between intestinal flora and the pathogenesis of diseases, including cardiovascular diseases.

National Hypertension Guidelines: A Review of the India Hypertension Control Initiative (IHCI) and Future Prospects.

Hypertension is a silent killer; however, the treatment of hypertension is simple, effective, readily available, and needs to be continued lifelong. It is a significant health problem that is included under the umbrella of non-communicable disease conditions and has a strong alliance with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The India Hypertension Control Initiative (IHCI) is an extensive program in India that involves the Indian Council of Medical Research, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (Government of India), the state governments of India, and World Health Organization Country Office for India (WHO-India).
