Connections involving chlorpyrifos degradation and also Compact disc removing in iron-carbon-based made swamplands for the treatment of man made farmland wastewater.
Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease was suspected. The lung and mediastinum lymph node biopsies were performed, and pathological findings of the lymph nodes were compatible with multicentric Castleman disease. Pathological findings of the lung showed that the fibrous thickening of interstitium and the collapse of alveoli. We diagnosed this case as idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease preceded by diffuse interstitial lung disease. Treatment with prednisolone improved the dyspnea, and the pulmonary lesions disappeared. The presented case suggests that interstitial lung disease could precede idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease. Chest physicians should be aware that idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease is one of the causative diseases of diffuse interstitial lung disease like non-specific interstitial pneumonia on the chest images.
High intensity workout stimulates the sympathetic nervous system and causes changes in the salivary composition. We hypothesized that activity of caries-causing bacteria in saliva may differ before and after workout. The objective of the study was to investigate if there is any difference in the oral microbial activity before and after HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) workout.

Unstimulated saliva was collected before and after HIIT workout (n=35). The workout was performed until the participant's heart rate reached 70-80% of maximum heart rate. The microbial activity of saliva was estimated using Oratest.

The participants belonged to 4 ethnities- Indian, Malays, Chinese and Others (18-22 years). The post-workout salivary microbial activity was higher than the pre-workout levels, being statistically significant (P=0.010). The increase in the post-workout microbial activity among females was found to be higher when compared to males. We also found significant different according to the ethnicities.

We conclude that caries activity increases immediately after a vigorous workout and remains high at least for 15min. Further studies are needed to validate the findings. Workout enthusiast should be aware of this so that they can take necessary precautions and be more regular with their dental check-ups.

Eradication of these biofilms is a primary step in treatment of the underlying malady. Management of a biofilm is governed by various factors the microenvironment within a biofilm, bond between the adhered surface and the biofilm, location of the biofilm, access to the biofilm for removal. Though annihilation is the priority, the mode of approach to achieve the same is equally important, because biofilm's heterogenic nature and location govern the strategical treatment required. Literature supports that the consequences of oral biofilms is not restricted to its home ground, but disseminated to other systems of the body. This contemplates us to procure knowledge on its development, structure and progression to aim its eradication. Therefore, this review attempts to recognize the type of biofilm based on location and enumerate all the possible chemical modes of management for the specific type of oral biofilms encountered. In addition, to the traditional strategies prescribed or administered, newer approaches which are gaining popularity due to their ease and efficiency are also addressed. Frontiers in the above field, under investigation and promising in near future are also compiled. Thus, the present review aims to provide a comprehensive elucidation of chemical management of oral biofilms, both the conventional and novel approaches under investigation.Mass gatherings for sporting events, music shows, and religious needs continue to grow in our urban areas, requiring local authorities to develop safety procedures to mitigate the challenges of keeping the attendees safe. These challenges are even more pronounced at pilgrimage venues where social distancing and contact avoidance are difficult as pilgrims are required to perform various rituals in close proximity with others, in a sequential manner, either daily or weekly, as per their religious tenets. Over two million pilgrims attend the Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia annually. Keeping the local and visiting pilgrims safe from crowd crush, sunstroke, skin infections, recurrence of prior medical issues, and contagious diseases requires the Saudi government to allocate huge investments for health communication and prevention programs every year. However, there is no evidence to date that has empirically tested whether Hajj pilgrims' are able to receive such information and are subsequently adopting various health promoting behaviors. This study aims to do that by framing it within the Health Belief Model. Data collected and analyzed from 245 pilgrims in Makkah between September 9th-19th, 2017 suggests that roughly 48% of the pilgrims adopted all five protective measures. However, language barriers, limited health care facilities, and difficulties in purchasing prescription mediciens were cited as impediments to adopting healthy measures. The study concludes with recommendations for the KSA government agencies, Hajj authorities, Mission authorities and pilgrims, during various phases of travel-- i.e. pre-travel, during the pilgrimage and post-travel, in light of new emerging health threats.Late stage breast cancer commonly metastasises to bone and patient survival averages 2-3 years following diagnosis of bone involvement. One of the most successful treatments for bone metastases is the bisphosphonate, zoledronic acid (ZOL). ZOL has been used in the advanced setting for many years where it has been shown to reduce skeletal complications associated with bone metastasis. More recently, several large adjuvant clinical trials have demonstrated that administration of ZOL can prevent recurrence and improve survival when given in early breast cancer. However, these promising effects were only observed in post-menopausal women with confirmed low concentrations of circulating ovarian hormones. In this review we focus on potential interactions between the ovarian hormone, oestrogen, and ZOL to establish credible hypotheses that could explain why anti-tumour effects are specific to post-menopausal women. Specifically, we discuss the molecular and immune cell driven mechanisms by which ZOL and oestrogen affect the tumour microenvironment to inhibit/induce tumour growth and how oestrogen can interact with zoledronic acid to inhibit its anti-tumour actions.
