This cross-sectional study investigates the association between ABO blood groups, dental caries, and tooth impaction in a sample of 120 subjects from Malabar Dental College and Research Centre. Participants aged 20 to 60 years underwent oral health examinations, including blood group determination, DMFS index assessment for caries, and intraoral radiographs for impaction confirmation. Statistical analysis using SPSS 26.0 revealed a significant association between B blood group and higher mean DMFS scores for dental caries.

Background: Drug discovery is the process by which therapeutic agents are identified and developed while drug delivery refers to the processes and technologies employed to provide vehicles through which therapeutic agents are administered to patients ensuring safety, efficacy, and quality. Synthetic materials were favoured against natural materials due to challenges of standardization and extensive characterization required for natural materials.

Pulmonary vein thrombosis (PVT) is an uncommon disease with a very similar clinical presentation as pulmonary artery embolism. We present a case of a 53 year old female patient who presented with chest pain and shortness of breath and was later found to have pulmonary vein thrombosis. The diagnoses was established with a CT scan of chest which showed a filling defect in a right segmental pulmonary vein. Patient was started on heparin drip and later discharged on oral apixiban. Three month later, CT scan showed resolution of thrombus.

Object: To describe the treatment and survival of OL (ovarian lymphoma) both primary and secondary. Method: Review of the literature (the study by Yun et al). Discussion: The review points out how the R-CHOP protocol appears to be superior to CHOP alone in terms of response and relapse rate in the case of secondary lymphoma ovarian involvement in DLBCL type. The HyperCVAD regimen is effective in other histotyps.The estimated five-year survival rates for primary and secondary ovarian involvement by DLBCL-type lymphoma are 70.0% and 59.3%, respectively.

Epithelial downgrowth syndrome represents a significant complication subsequent to ocular surgery or trauma. Herein, we present a comprehensive description of a specific case of this complication following an eye trauma in a child of 8 years old. This case highlights the challenges in diagnosing and managing epithelial downgrowth syndrome, particularly in pediatric patients following traumatic eye injuries.
