November 2024
Department of Prosthetic Dentistry, College of Dentistry King Khalid University, Abha, Saudi Arabia.
Article Synopsis
- The study examines the impact of adding zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO) nanoparticles to denture base resin on its surface hardness and flexural strength during chewing and occlusal loading.
- Five groups of acrylic resin samples were created, with one group being a control and the others containing different concentrations of nanoparticles, and their properties were tested using specific machinery.
- Results showed that the modified denture resins had significantly improved properties, with the highest surface hardness from 1% TiO and the best flexural strength from 1% ZnO, indicating better durability compared to conventional resins.

J Craniofac Surg
December 2024
Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, University of Messina, Messina.
Article Synopsis
- Osteotomy procedures can use either conventional rotary instruments or piezoelectric surgery, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks related to precision and patient recovery.
- A systematic review of literature compared outcomes between these two techniques, analyzing factors like postoperative pain, swelling, and surgical time.
- The review found no significant difference in swelling, but piezoelectric surgery led to less postoperative pain and better tissue integration, albeit at the cost of longer surgical times.

West Nile Virus in a changing climate: epidemiology, pathology, advances in diagnosis and treatment, vaccine designing and control strategies, emerging public health challenges - a comprehensive review.
Emerg Microbes Infect
December 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Hamad Medical Corporation, Doha, Qatar.
Article Synopsis
- West Nile Virus (WNV) poses a significant global health risk, expanding into new regions due to climate change enhancing mosquito activity, leading to year-round virus transmission.
- Recent advancements in genomic technologies have improved understanding of WNV's behavior and potential treatment options, yet the lack of an approved vaccine means management relies heavily on supportive care for severe cases.
- There is a pressing need for innovative vector control methods and adaptive public health strategies that integrate research, policy, and community efforts to effectively combat WNV's evolving challenges.
