Dental neglect can be defined as attitude and behavior towards oral health which can have detrimental effects on individual’s oral health, e.g. negligence in maintaining at home dental care and dental visits for professional dental care. Oral health is a part of general health care system and negligence in oral hygiene can affect the quality of life too. The aim of the study was to assess dental negligence and oral hygiene status among undergraduates’ students. Study consisted of 20 questionnaire including names and year of study using dental neglect scale and were circulated among undergraduates’ students. Total 156 students responded to the questionnaire. Out of 156 student’s perception of 83.3% students has changed towards oral hygiene practices after entering into BDS program. Dental neglect is easier to use in practice and it shows that degree of dental neglect is found among dental undergraduate students and variation also exists among students of all four years.

Post-tracheostomy brachiocephalic arterial injury (TABC) is a rare complication. We report the case of a 62-year-old patient ho required invasive ventilation through an orotracheal tube for asthma. He had suddenly showed a cataclysmic hemorrhage externalizing around the tracheal cannula with bright red blood. The exploration had revealed a breach of two centimeters at the level of the TABC. Ulceration of TABC after tracheostomy despite its rarity is a fatal complication that must be known by the resuscitators.

Objective: To determine the anti-asthmatic activity of Argemone mexicana ethanolic extract and its chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions. Methods: Present study was designed to evaluate the anti-asthmatic activity of Argemone mexicana stems using various experimental in vivo and in vitro animal models. Ethanolic extract of Argemone mexicana and its chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions were evaluated for its anti-asthmatic activity by in vitro models (isolated guinea pig ileum preparation and isolated guinea pig tracheal chain preparation) in vivo models (Histamine and acetylcholine induced bronchospasm in guinea pigs and milk induced eosinophilia in mice models). Results: Ethanolic extract of Argemone mexicana significantly antagonized the effect of histamine induced contraction on isolated guinea pig ileum preparation. Ethanolic extract of Argemone mexicana, and its ethyl acetate fraction at the concentration of 10mg significantly inhibited the contraction of isolated guinea pig ileum and trachea chain preparation produced by histamine. Ethanolic extracts of Argemone mexicana at dose of 150, 250, and 350mg/kg body weight significantly extended the latent period of convulsion as compared to standard (Ketotifen fumarate) upon histamine and acetylcholine exposure in a dose dependent manner. Conclusion: Ethanolic extract of Argemone mexicana stems have shown significant anti-asthmatic activity.

Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a most common cause of death in developed as well as developing countries. Inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of CAD. Aim and Objective: To identify the hsCRP levels in established CAD patients and its correlation with angiographic severity. Research Design and Methods: A cross sectional study conducted on 72 patients of established CAD aged between 35 and 55 years. The coronary angiographic severity was assessed by number of coronary vessels involved and Gensini scoring system. The serum hsCRP was estimated by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay. Results: The mean hsCRP level was 14.85 mg/dL. Among the total 72 study participants 33 had single vessel disease, 13 and 25 had double vessel and triple vessel involvement respectively. There was no significant correlation of hsCRP with angiographic finding (r=0.103, p=0.385). Conclusion: We found that hsCRP was highly elevated but not a predictor of angiographic severity among established CAD with presence of other cardiovascular risk factors.

The world is observing a very strange time fighting an invisible enemy; the novel Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). It is a declared global pandemic now. Initially it was observed in the Wuhan province of China, now fastly spreading around the world. The disease has spread globally with more than 8 million confirmed cases and 439,487 deaths as of June 17th, 2020. Human Coronavirus (HCoV) infection causes respiratory diseases with mild to severe outcomes. In the last 15 years, we have witnessed the emergence of two zoonotic, highly pathogenic HCoVs: Severe Acute Rspiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV). The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, tiredness and dry cough. Some patients may have aches and pains, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat or diarrhoea and in case of serious illness develop difficulty in breathing. Research is underway to develop effective vaccines and medicines for the disease. But up to now no any effective management had not been declared. In such conditions, we present the measures described in Unani system of medicine for health protection during epidemics. Unani medicine is a traditional system of medicine developed during the middle ages, which employs natural drugs of herbal, animal and mineral origin for treatment. Traditional systems of medicine are being explored for providing preventive, supportive and rehabilitative care to patients in epidemic/pandemic but no direct evidence is available, some uncontrolled studies on traditional medicines suggest that they may have a direct efficacy on the virus. Unani Physicians emphasized in their classical Unani books under the chapter of influenza about pandemic (Nazla Wabai/ Nazla Haar) and epidemic diseases. The objective of this paper is to discuss in detail the Unani concept, management, treatment of epidemics in general and possible management of current Pandemics of COVID-19, its analysis in the light of ancient books in present scenario.

The study is an attempt to investigate the India’s bilateral trade profile and export potential of India with United Arab Emirates (UAE) over the period 2001-2018. In addition to exploring the bilateral trade with UAE, it also throws light on how India has performed globally during the same period. In order to analyze India’s export intensity, complementarity, diversification & specialization we resorted to trade indices and Finally, Revealed Comparative Advantage Index (RCA) is calculated to find out what are the lines of specialization that India has in its anvil. Index of competitiveness is calculated both at the global and bilateral level i.e. RCA with world and Bilateral Revealed Comparative Advantage (BRCA) with UAE. It is found that, though, India is second largest supplier to UAE in Merchandise trade, still a major proportion of export revenue is coming from very few lines. Precious stones and Jewellery items accounts for around 30% of exports earning. Our calculations reveal that there are 228 products in which India has bilateral revealed comparative advantage with UAE, while globally it has revealed comparative advantage in 558 products. Thus, there exists a gap of around 377 products, which India can tap for additional US $ 6.42 billion of UAE demand where India supplies only US $ 1.21 billion as of 2018.

This study of the composition of heavy metal, lead, iron, zinc and mercury in periwinkle tissues (Tympanotonosfiiscatus) were determined from different sampling stations in Mgbuoshimini Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria, using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The results obtained from the analysis of salt water and fresh water periwinkle tissues indicated lead 18.62%, iron 70.08%, mercury 11.20% and zinc 53.34% and that of fresh water periwinkle includes 17.48%, 71.79%, mercury 10.71% and zinc 48.28% by percentage conversion. This comparative analysis implies that the fresh water periwinkle tissues have higher concentrations of iron and zinc which can be attributed to the dissolved mineral resources available in both salt and fresh water bodies. However, the concentrations of lead and mercury in these water bodies are above threshold limit which is quite a potential hazard for sea foods. In conclusion, comparison between the two water bodies showed that tissue samples from fresh water had higher concentration of metals in relation to salt water indicating potentials for accumulation, mainly due to differences in anthropogenic activities. Hg, Zn, Fe and Pb concentrations in tissue had values higher than the recommended limits in seafood by FAO/WHO however, regular monitoring is required to observe perturbations. In addition, sea foods obtained from the salt and fresh water bodies are potential sources of heavy metal poisoning, due to industrialization and non-regulatory use of the water bodies, thus, calls for adequate legislation and proper orientation on the use and protection of water bodies from heavy metalpoisoning.

The history of Medieval India had long been interpreted on two grounds basically- the age of destruction of Indian civilization by the central Asian invaders and the growth of composite culture. But the above terms reflect contradictory sense because if the advent of foreigners fully eliminated India’s glorious past then how could there be an amelioration of cultural assimilation during our period of study. In this regard, communalist modern scholars of this period can be held responsible who sought to disseminate unscientific viewpoints on both Hindu and Muslim superiority or at best with a so-called notion of “community crisis”. In fact, it is not even so hard to identify the biasness of Marxist scholars who set up dominance in medieval Indian history writing by excluding many impartial treatments. However, as a chief offshoot of this composite tradition the mystic literary practice had thrived out of Bhakti and Sufi movement which imparted the idea of love and devotion for God, simultaneously emphasized the harmonious social relationship through the spiritual dissemination of human relationship with extra-mundane world. This paper will attempt to describe the understanding of non-Muslims through the literary aspects of Delhi Sultanate period, by which the composite cultural scenario can be discernible in the making of Indian heritage. As a part of my discussion, therefore, I have decided to provide a critical analysis about the most prominent mystic author of this age- Amir Khusrau.

Marine sponges are on focus for their ability to produce compounds with antimicrobial activity. The aim of the current study was to screen extracts derived from marine sponge Sigmadocia fibulata (Schmidt) and Suberites carnosus (Johnston) for their activity against selected bacterial fungal and pestecidal pathogens. The crude extract derived from Sigmadocia fibulata (Schmidt) and Suberites carnosus (Johnston) were found potent against tested E. coli and P. mirabilis bacteria. The crude extract of both the sponges showed pasticidal activities against Periplanata Americana and Sitopbilus oryzae. No activity was noted against fungus when tested with crude extract of Sigmadocia fibulata (Schmidt) and Suberites carnosus (Johnston). Thus confirms that the crude extract of Sigmadocia fibulata (Schmidt) and Suberites carnosus (Johnston) have antibacterial and anti pesticidal property.

Insertion or impaction of foreign objects into the tooth pulp chamber or canals by children are common findings, as they often have habit of inserting foreign objects in the oral cavity, but insertion of tooth pick is a rare finding. These foreign objects can become a potent source of infection. Retrieval of these objects from teeth is a challenging aspect of pediatric dentistry. Radiopaque foreign objects can be diagnosed in routine radiographs, which play important role in analysis of the size, location and type of foreign object, however this does not apply for radiolucent objects. The present paper describes a rare case of insertion of tooth pick into the deciduous mandibular molar tooth.

Shark liver oil is one of the sources of cellular energy and provides repair and restoration of damaged cells, and supports in protection of the body from the emergence of tumorous conditions. The Shark liver oil was tested orally at the dose of 1gm/kg/oral body weight, on gastric ulceration experimentally induced by Ethanol. The parameters considered to assess the Mucoprotective activity were percentage of ulcer, ulcer index, percentage of inhibition, pH, free acidity and total acidity, GSH, LPO and ALP. Pre treatment with the Shark liver oil resulted in significant decrease of the ulcerated area and reduced pH, free acidity and total acidity.

In human dentition, permanent tooth impaction is relatively common. But, the first permanent molars are rarely impacted with a reported prevalence of 0.02% for permanent maxillary first molar and fewer than 0.01% for the permanent mandibular first molars. The etiology for the failure of eruption can be variable. It is usually an symptomless pathology. Diagnosis in early stage and treatment of impacted permanent molars contributes to most favourable outcomes and good long-standing prognosis by lessening of complication. Here we are presenting a case reports of 2 cases of permanent first impacted molars.

Introduction: After the elimination of endodontic infection the teeth becomes fragile, brittle and can easily fracture when compared to the natural teeth. The removed teeth and the dental pulp need to be replaced after the endodontic therapy to prevent inconvenience to the patient in chewing, biting and speaking. Aim: The main aim of this study is to assess the knowledge and awareness of dental doctors of Jazan about the prosthetic restorations of endodontically treated teeth. Methodology: A pre-designed questionnaire was circulated online using Google form to measure the knowledge and awareness of the dental doctors about the prosthetic restorations of the endodontically treated teeth. The results of the survey of elucidating the awareness of dental doctors in Jazan was recorded. The result of this survey was analysed using the SPSS software. Results: The above data analysis of this survey to evaluate and access the knowledge and awareness of the dental doctors of Jazan, in Saudi Arabia showed good results. Most of the dental doctors participating in this survey from Jazan are highly experienced and have excellent comprehension about the prosthetic restorations after the endodontic treatment.

This article attempts to deal with nature as a recurrent theme in William Wordsworth’s poetry. He is one of the greatest romantic English poets. He views nature as a living entity that is a source of pleasure and education for him. He has given us sufficient heart-touching and beautiful poems that are the enduring treasures of romanticism, but only a few popular poems that reveal the growth and development of his love for nature, his concept of nature mysticism, joy in nature, universal love in nature, spiritual unity of nature, bond between nature and man, soothing influence and healing power of nature and nature’s teaching potentiality have been taken from the corpus of his vast works under consideration for the study. Most of his poems can be well understood and analyzed through a vigilant consideration regarding his treatment of nature.
