Abstract: Background: Stem cells are unspecialized cells in the human body that are capable of becoming specialized cells, each with new specialized cell functions. The best example of a stem cell is the bone marrow stem cell that is unspecialized and able to specialize into blood cells, such as white blood cells and red blood cells, and these new cell types have special functions, such as being able to produce antibodies, act as scavengers to combat infection and transport gases. Thus one cell type stems from the other and hence them term "stem cell". Basically, a stem cell remains uncommitted until it receives a signal to develop into a specialized cell. Stem cells have the remarkable properties.....

Abstract: Background: The bone graft serving as a scaffolds for the in-growth of vessels, perivascular tissue and mesenchymal cells forms the host bed exhibits the characteristic of osteoinduction. This scaffold allows gradual replacement of bone graft over time by resorption of old bone trebecule and formation of new bone. Each grafts type has its own healing and incopration mechanism. Replacement of bone is a complex and demanding undertaking. Bone formation occurs when osteoblasts secrete collagen molecules and ground substances. The collagen molecules polymerize to form collagen fibers. Calcium salts precipitate in the ground substance along the collagen fibers to form osteoid. Osteoblast become trapped in the osteoid and then are called osteocyes. Mature compact bone is composed of approximately 30% organic matrix and 70% calcium salts. 90% to 95% of the organic matrix is collagen fibers and.....

Abstract: In this article we will deal with two developmental anamolies that usually coexist in 20 to 49% [1] of cases. One of the entities is Transverse Testicular Ectopy, also known as Crossed Testicular Ectopy, as the name suggests, is a condition in which both the testes descend through the same inguinal canal into the same hemi-scrotum. TTE is a rare case that occurs only 1 in 4 million patients [2]. The other entity is Persistent Mullerian Duct Syndrome, which is a rare form of male pseudo-hermaphroditism in which there are remnants of the Mullerian structures in an otherwise genotypically (46XY) and phenotypically normal male.....

Abstract: Background: Halitosis, a common reason for dental consultation raises a lot of concern among sufferers, as it negatively impacts on daily life style like communication with others, self-esteem, self-confidence, social and intimate relationship etc. There has been established association between inadequate oral hygiene practices and halitosis. Aim: The objective of this study was to assess whether the concerns about halitosis influences lifestyle, attitude and practices among Vikarabad population. Materials and methods: A survey has been conducted in a questionnaire format regarding halitosis, oral hygiene practices, lifestyle and attitude by selecting 100 subjects randomly from outpatient department of Sri Sai College of Dental Surgery, Vikarabad.....

Abstract: Congenital corneal opacity (CCO), by definition, is present in the newborn. The prevalence of CCO is approximately 3 per 1 lac newborns. However, this increases to 6 per 1 lac if congenital glaucoma is also included1. CCO is either unilateral or bilateral and the cause could be hereditary, developmental, metabolic or infectious. Accurate and early diagnosis is required for correct prediction of the natural history of the disorder, to look for associated ocular and systemic disorders, appropriate genetic counseling and for establishing a proper management plan. Congenital corneal opacities (CCO) have been classified traditionally by a pneumonic "STUMPED‟2 (Figure 1). However another classification system has been recently proposed which may be better considered from a perspective of pathogenesis, surgical.....

Abstract: End stage ocular sequelae of Stevens Johnson Syndrome (SJS) is characterised by corneal scaring and opacity in a setting of a very severe dry eye. The options of visual rehabilitation in such a clinical setting are limited. We present a novel technique of management of such a case. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such case performed in this region.....

Abstract: The term hepatic cyst usually refers to solitary non-parasitic cysts of the liver also known as simple cysts.The most common benign lesion found in the liver is the congenital or simple cyst. They are believed to be congenital in origin.Asymptomatic simple cysts are best managed conservatively. The preferred treatment for symptomatic cysts is ultrasound or CT-guided percutaneous cyst aspiration followed by sclerotherapy. If percutaneous treatment is unavailable or ineffective, treatment may include either laparoscopic or open surgical cyst fenestration. Unroofing of the extrahepatic portion of the cyst may be done.We report a case of simple hepatic cyst that presented with abdominal pain and its management.

Abstract: On 31st Dec 2019, Wuhan Municipal Commission,China,reported a cluster of 27 pneumonia cases of unknown etiology.[1]Samples tested positive for novel coronavirus. On 30th January, 2020,WHO declared this outbreak of novel coronavirus as "A Public Health EmergencyOf International Concern"[2,3]. Alarge number of cases have been diagnosed Globally. On 11th March 2020-WHO declared COVID-19 as a Global Pandemic.[4] Despite extensive studies on the epidemiology of COVID-19 infection, studies on pregnant women with COVID-19 diseases remain relatively less. The physiological changes occurring during pregnancy make pregnant women more vulnerable to corona infection......
