Unicystic ameloblastoma: Clinico-radiological and histopathological correlation with management.

Unicystic ameloblastoma is a distinct entity of ameloblastoma characterized by slow growth and locally aggressive behavior. This retrospective study aimed to assess the efficacy of different treatment modalities of unicystic ameloblastoma, focusing on clinico-radiological and histopathological features. Data from patients diagnosed with unicystic ameloblastoma were retrospectively analyzed.

Impact of chronic wound on quality of life among diabetic foot ulcer patients in a selected hospital of Guwahati, Assam, India.

Background: Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is an important mortality factor among diabetes mellitus (DM) patients and has a massive impact on the quality of life (QoL) of patients. The non-heal foot ulcer needs extra care and need special attention in maintaining wound hygiene. Dressing on wound is done in four stages such as cleanse the wound, debridement of wound, fashioning of edges and final dressing.

Serum visfatin and adiponectin - markers in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a leading cause of female infertility. Adipose tissue releases various adipokines, including visfatin and adiponectin, which have influence on insulin resistance (IR). To determine serum insulin levels, IR, serum visfatin and adiponectin levels in PCOS subjects.

ethanolic bark extract induces apoptosis in human oral squamous carcinoma cells.

Oral cancer is in approximately 30% of all cancers in India. This study was conducted to evaluate the cytotoxic activity of ethanolic extract of bark (ACB) against human squamous cell carcinoma cell line-25 (SCC-25). Cytotoxic effect of ACB extract was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium Bromide assay.

Ethanolic Seed Extract Triggers Apoptosis of SCC-25 Cells.

Background: Willd (), commonly known as catechu, cachou, and black cutch, has been studied for its hepatoprotective, antipyretic, antidiarrheal, hypoglycemic, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antinociceptive, antimicrobial, free radical scavenging, and antioxidant activities.

Objective: We evaluated the cytotoxic activity of ethanol extract of seed (ACS) against SCC-25 human oral squamous carcinoma cell line.

Methods: Cytotoxic effect of ACS extract was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, using concentrations of 0.

Impact of Emotional Support on Serum Cortisol in Breast Cancer Patients.

Context: Breast cancer is the most commonly occurring female cancer in the world. Research gap exists regarding emotional support for breast cancer patients.

Aim: The main aim of this study was to compare the efficiency of Emotional Support- Focused Nurse directed Intervention on serum cortisol among arm I, II and III in breast cancer patients.

An unusual occurrence of Karsch-Neugebauer syndrome with orodental anomalies.

Karsch-Neugebauer syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by split foot, split hand anomalies in association with congenital nystagmus. It is an inherited condition and often occurs in both the hands and the feet. Its pattern of inheritance is autosomal dominant, though occasionally it can skip a generation.

Multicontrast late gadolinium enhancement imaging enables viability and wall motion assessment in a single acquisition with reduced scan times.

Purpose: To determine the accuracy of multicontrast late enhancement imaging (MCLE) in the assessment of myocardial viability and wall motion compared to the conventional wall motion and viability cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pulse sequences.

Materials And Methods: Forty-one patients with suspected myocardial infarction were studied. Patients underwent assessment of cardiac function with cine steady-state free-precession (SSFP), followed by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging using inversion recovery gradient echo scanning (IR-GRE) sequence and MCLE.

Production of a thermophilic, extracellular alkaline protease by Bacillus stearothermophilus AP-4.

A thermophilic Bacillus stearothermophilus strain AP-4 excreting a thermostable alkaline protease, was isolated from a local compost. Maximum activity of protease (250 U/ml) was after 36 h growth in broth at pH 9.0 and at 55°C.
