Abstract:Hyperlipidemia is a common finding in nephrotic syndrome. There is increased total Cholesterol, LDL, VLDL and low or normal HDL. Hyperlipidemia is usually observed during the active phase of disease and disappears with resolution of proteinuria. But in relapsing cases, it may persist and may increase risk of atherosclerosis in later life. Hence serial monitoring of lipids is required to predict prognosis. Hence, our study is an attempt to know derangement of serum lipids in nephrotic syndrome.

Abstract:Dental caries is a great challenge to the oral health of children. This is especially common among low socioeconomic status population which thrusts a great burden on community health. When proper intervention is not undertaken dental caries leads to irreversible damage of pulp. Exposure of the dental pulp to microorganisms results in the development of pulpal and periradicular pathosis. The role of these microorganisms as the main etiologic factor for pulpal pathology has been well established.

Abstract: Aim of this case report was to analyze the treatment mechanics of Tip-Edge Plus appliance. A recent modification to the Tip-Edge bracket system now enables torque and tip corrections to be achieved without the use of auxiliary springs (Side-Winders). Tip Edge Plus employ nickel titanium for root uprighting by using the additional slot of the bracket. The Aesthetics and efficiency in Stage III of Tip Edge Plus are far superior. Tip Edge Plus Appliance is easier to keep clean without auxiliary springs, more comfortable without the added profile of Side-Winders.

Key words: Tip-Edge Plus, Side-Winders, Root uprighting.

Title	:	Twisted ovarian cyst in women with uterine anomalies – a case report.

Abstract: Mullerian anomalies encompass a wide variety of malformations in the female genital tract. Their occurrence is sporadic and there is no evidence of familial inheritance (1). Of these anomalies, approximately 11% are uterus didelphys, which occurs when midline fusion of the mullerian ducts is arrested to a variable extent (2). They are associated with ovarian malposition and obstruction due to the presence of a transverse vaginal septum (3). There is a reported 20% incidence of renal anomalies in patients with uterus didelphys. We report a patient who was diagnosed as twisted right ovarian cyst and a bicornuate uterus.
