Abstract
Aim: This study evaluated and compared the diametral tensile strength (DTS) of phosphate-bonded investment (PBI) material (ringless) used in removable cast partial denture fabrication. Settings and Design: Comparative - Invitro study. Materials and Methods: The PBI material, Wirovest used in this study was subjected to four different drying methods. A total of 80 specimens were prepared in a cylindrical form; 20 specimens were air dried for 2 h, 20 specimens were dried in a conventional oven at 230°C for 1 h, 20 specimens were dried in microwave oven at 600 W for 10 min, and remaining 20 specimens were dried first in microwave oven and then in conventional oven. The dried specimens were tested at 2-h interval for diametral compression at a crosshead speed of 0.5 cm/min. Statistical Analysis Used: Pairwise analysis. Results: The microwave drying technique and drying by combination method resulted in greater DTS, respectively. Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, PBI specimens dried in microwave oven at 600W for 10 min increased the diametral strength and are also a time-saving procedure.

Abstract
AIM To determine if ultra-low-dose (ULD) computed tomography (CT) utilising model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR) with radiation equivalent to plain radiography allows the detection of lung nodules. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-nine individuals undergoing surveillance of solid pulmonary nodules undertook a low-dose (LD) and ULD CT during the same sitting. Image pairs were read blinded, in random order, and independently by two experienced thoracic radiologists. With LD-CT as the reference standard, the number, size, and location of nodules was compared, and inter-rater agreement was established. RESULTS There was very good inter-rater agreement with regards nodules ≥4mm for both the LD- (k=0.931) and ULD-CT (k=0.869). One hundred and ninety-nine nodules were reported on the LD-CT by both radiologists and 196 reported on the ULD-CT, with no nodules reported only on the ULD-CT. This gives a sensitivity of 98.5% and specificity of 100% for ULD-CT with MBIR. The effective dose of radiation was significantly different between the two scans (p<0.0001), 1.67 mSv for the LD-CT and 0.13 mSv for the ULD-CT. CONCLUSION ULD-CT utilising MBIR and delivering radiation equivalent to plain radiography, allows detection of lung nodules with high sensitivity. The attendant 10-fold reduction in radiation may allow for dramatic reductions in cumulative radiation exposure.

Abstract
The spread of bacterial resistance against conventional antibiotics generates a great need for the discovery of novel antimicrobials. Polypeptide antibiotics constitute a promising class of antimicrobial agents that favour attack on bacterial membranes. However, efficient measurement platforms for evaluating their mechanisms of action in a systematic manner are lacking. Here we report an integrated lab-on-a-chip multilayer microfluidic platform to quantify the membranolytic efficacy of such antibiotics. The platform is a biomimetic vesicle-based screening assay, which generates giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) in physiologically relevant buffers on demand. Hundreds of these GUVs are individually immobilised downstream in physical traps connected to separate perfusion inlets that facilitate controlled antibiotic delivery. Antibiotic efficacy is expressed as a function of the time needed for an encapsulated dye to leak out of the GUVs as a result of antibiotic treatment. This proof-of-principle study probes the dose response of an archetypal polypeptide antibiotic cecropin B on GUVs mimicking bacterial membranes. The results of the study provide a foundation for engineering quantitative, high-throughput microfluidics devices for screening antibiotics.

Abstract
AIM To develop a mobile app for education and screening regarding oral cancer in the general population. MATERIALS AND METHODS A mobile app titled Prayaas-Oral Cancer Prevention, Treatment, and Rehabilitation was designed and developed to be installed on a basic mobile handset with or without internet. It was aimed for the common public, patients as well as healthcare providers. The contents included all information in the pictorial format as well as videos regarding oral cancer awareness, tobacco de-addiction, self-oral examination, various surgeries, and rehabilitation options. It was pilot tested in 50 factory workers of rural set-up. Participants' feedback was recorded using a self- report questionnaire. RESULTS Overall feedback was very positive, they found the app easy to operate, enhancing knowledge regarding oral cancer and they recommended this to be used for the general population. CONCLUSIONS Within limitations of this pilot study, it can be inferred that mobile technology can be successfully used to reach out to bottom of the pyramid population residing in inaccessible rural population for creating public health issues such as oral cancer. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Oral cancer is preventable through risk factor intervention especially tobacco de-addiction. The self- oral examination can be a very critical factor in early diagnosis of oral cancer. Access to care is a major issue in our country owing to low levels of education, lower income and exposure to risk factors such as tobacco. The fact that today there is widespread use of mobile technology by people belonging to all socioeconomic groups can be harnessed for this public health awareness initiative. This app can be used as a tool for patient education for prevention as well as early detection of oral cancer, both of which can be key to reduce oral cancer morbidity and mortality in India.

Abstract
This article was migrated. The article was not marked as recommended. Leadership training in medical education is extremely important for faculty as they are not formally trained for the same and yet they have to assume leadership roles in verious capacities in their professional life. This paper describes stages in developement and implementation of one such leadership course in a healhcare institute in India, involving faculty from diverse specialities. The short term outcomes such as participants reactions and changes in attitudes was evaluated. Overall it was well received by the participants.

Abstract
This article was migrated. The article was not marked as recommended. Background:Teaching dental materials in first and second BDS training years is a very demanding task. The theory can be taught but the relevant clinical and laboratory procedures can be shown only in third and final BDS. Therefore, understanding can be improved if technical laboratory procedures are shown live to these students in early years.Methodology:An early laboratory exposure was planned for second BDS students related to various dental materials including dental ceramic, waxes and casting procedures. 60 students were divided in 2 groups of control and experimental respectively. Pre-test and post-test were administered. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to know their perceptions regarding the intervention.Results:The mean scores were pretest 29±3 and for control group 33±2 and for experimental group 45±4. the difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). Common themes that emerged from semistructured interviews included better understanding of the topics especially technical procedures and scope of dental laboratory in clinical practice.Conclusion:Early laboratory exposure can be successfully coupled with traditional teaching of dental materials in early years of BDS training to provide a practical context to theoretical learning.

Abstract
Monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance is a recently described entity in which a small B-cell clone not meeting the criteria for the diagnosis of multiple myeloma produces renal disease usually through deposition of a secreted monoclonal immunoglobulin. Here, we describe a case of Type I cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis diagnosed on a kidney biopsy and caused by a monoclonal IgM produced by a small bone marrow clone. The patient made a complete renal recovery after chemotherapy to suppress the clone.
