Abstract
BACKGROUND Altered T-cell repertoire with an aberrant T-cell activation and imbalance of the Th17/Treg cells has been reported in acquired aplastic anemia (aAA). miRNAs are well known to orchestrate T-cell activation and differentiation, however, their role in aAA is poorly characterized. The study aimed at identifying the profile of miRNAs likely to be involved in T-cell activation and the Th17/Treg-cell imbalance in aAA, to explore newer therapeutic targets. METHODS Five milliliters peripheral blood samples from 30 patients of aAA and 15 healthy controls were subjected to flow cytometry for evaluating Th17- and Treg-cell subsets. The differential expression of 7 selected miRNAs viz; hsa-miR-126-3p, miR-146b-5p, miR-155-5p, miR-16, miR-17, miR-326, and miR-181c was evaluated in the PB-MNCs. Expression analysis of the miRNAs was performed using qRT-PCR and fold change was calculated by 2-ΔΔCt method. The alterations in the target genes of deregulated miRNAs were assessed by qRT-PCR. The targets studied included various transcription factors, cytokines, and downstream proteins. RESULTS The absolute CD3+ lymphocytes were significantly elevated in the PB of aAA patients when compared with healthy controls (p < 0.0035), however, the CD4:CD8 ratio was unperturbed. Th17: Treg-cell ratio was altered in aAA patients (9.1 vs. 3.7%, p value <0.05), which correlated positively with disease severity and the PNH positive aAA. Across all severities of aAA, altered expression of the 07 miRNAs was noted in comparison to controls; upregulation of miR-155 (FC-2.174, p-value-0.0001), miR-146 (FC-2.006, p-value-0.0001), and miR-17 (FC-3.1, p-value-0.0001), and downregulation of miR-126 (FC-0.329, p-value-0.0001), miR-181c (FC-0.317, p-value-0.0001), miR-16 (FC-0.348, p-value-0.0001), and miR-326 (FC-0.334, p-value-0.0001). Target study for these miRNAs revealed an increased expression of transcription factors responsible for Th1 and Th17 differentiation (T-bet, RORϒt, IL-17, IL-6, and IFN-ϒ), T-cell activation (NFκB, MYC, and PIK3R2), downregulation of FOX-P3, and other regulatory downstream molecules like SHIP-1, ETS-1, IRAK-1, TRAF-6, and PTEN. CONCLUSION The study for the first time highlights the plausible role of different miRNAs in deregulating the Th17/Treg-cell imbalance in aAA, and comprehensively suggest the role of altered NF-kB and mTOR pathways in aAA. The axis may be actively explored for development of newer therapeutic targets in aAA.

Abstract
Introduction The burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is a major public health concern across the world. Various initiatives have tried to address these with varying degrees of success. Objective The objective is to assess and collate existing evidence in implementation research done in India on three broad domains of NCDs namely, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), diabetes mellitus (DM), and mental health (MH) in India. Materials and methods Three systematic review protocols have been drafted to explore and collate extant evidence of implementation research on cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, and mental health in India, in accordance with the PRISMA-P statement. Academic databases including PubMed, Embase and Science Direct will be searched. Search strategies will be formulated in iterative processes and in accordance with the formats that are specific to the databases that will be searched. In addition, grey literature and non-academic databases will also be explored. Data extracted from the selected studies will be analysed and a narrative summary of the selected articles, using the SWiM (Synthesis without meta-analysis) guidelines will be produced. Intended Outcomes The outputs of these systematic reviews could help in a better understanding of implementation research gaps and also how to address them. Apart from giving insights into how healthcare initiatives for CVDs, diabetes and mental health could be implemented in a better way, the study could also advocate the need to build and consolidate capacity for implementation research in the country.

Abstract
This study was conducted to evaluate the prebiotic effect of xylo-oligosaccharide (XOS) supplemented in a corn-soybean meal (SBM) based conventional diet on growth performance, intestinal histomorphology, and quantification of specific bacteria in the ceca of broilers. A total of 240 d of hatch Cobb 500 male broiler chicks were randomly assigned to 4 dietary treatments (corn-SBM-based control diet) containing 0, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2% XOS. The broilers were raised for 21 d in 6 replicate cages, each containing 10 birds. Growth performance parameters were obtained weekly. Additionally, small intestinal tissues were collected to evaluate histomorphometry and whole ceca were collected to quantify bacterial populations on D21. The results showed that inclusion of XOS has similar body weight (BW), body weight gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), and feed conversion ratio (FCR) as the control group during the 21-day study. The results further indicate a tendency for the jejunum villus to crypt ratio (VH:CD) to increase in birds given 0.05 and 0.2% XOS (P = 0.08). Cecal bacteria quantification showed a linear increase in Bifidobacterium with increasing XOS levels (P < 0.0001) and a decrease Clostridium perfringens levels compared to birds fed the control diet (P < 0.0001). However, there were no differences in the total counts of Lactobacillus and E. coli. Together these results showed that while there were no differences in growth parameters up to 21 d, the histomorphology findings and the increase in Bifidobacterium, along with the reduction in C. perfringens observed in the XOS groups, suggest a beneficial impact of XOS inclusion on gut health. Further research with longer feeding periods and higher XOS levels should be conducted to explore potential positive effects on both growth and gut health parameters.

Abstract
A fast implant is a kind of implant to place in the cavity right away after dental extraction. These implants are shown to maintain cervical marrow and reduce the number of surgery operations required for patients. The Photodynamic treatment (PDT) uses antimicrobial processes to supplement nonsurgical periodontal therapy. Combined through the scaling and root planning (SRP), and PDT is more effective. This study aims to assess the effects of PDT on initial findings with dental implants (DI) placed in patients having gum disease with SRP against patients who do not at the 12-month follow-up point. An aggregate of 25 implants were inserted in 16 patients, 12 of whom were in the test group (TG) and 13 of whom were in the control group (CG). SRP is conducted toward rapid implant assignment in the control site, while PDT as an adjunct to SRP (SRP + PDT) is executed prior to instant implant insertion in test sites. At the beginning, 4 months, 8 months, and 12 months, gingival index, radiovisiographs, inquiring pocket intensity, clinical attachment level, and plaque index were obtained. Basic durability was assessed after implant insertion, and the recovery index was measured a week later. In this analysis, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) technique is used to predict tooth decay earlier. The CG experienced 1.10 mm of mean marginal bone loss after the 12-month research period, compared to 0.97 mm for the (SRP + PDT) group. After reaching the CG and TG, the differences in plaque score and probe depth were noteworthy. Clinical indicators compared to the basis in a year revealed unquestionable improvement, including the probing depth gingival index, plaque index and clinical attachment level. Twelve months were spent monitoring the implants in both groups. The little bone loss improved, although it isn't clinically important. The endurance rate for rapid implants in the PDT grouping is the same as that of the group that underwent SRP. The impact of PTD is utilized as a supplement to SRP. Yet, the consequence is marginal. Because of the improved results with PDT, it is used successfully as an addition to SRP.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to analyze the publication trends on the psychological health of postmenopausal women by performing a bibliometric and visualization analysis that can be used as a foundation for understanding current and future research plans. Publications were retrieved from Dimensions database from 2012 to June 2022. VOSviewer software was used for data mining and visualization. A total of 1718 papers were selected by keyword search and delimiting criteria. To evaluate the productive nations, authors, journals, articles and frequent joint citations, citation analysis, author keyword co-occurrence analysis, co-authorship analysis and co-citation analysis were performed. Results depict that the USA contributed the most papers (n = 457). Maximum articles (n = 192) were published in 2021. The highest number of articles are published in Menopause: The Journal of the North American Menopause Society and Climacteric: The Journal of the International Menopause Society. Out of the top 10 contributing organizations in the field, six organizations were from the USA. R. Nappi of Italy is the most productive author with 20 articles and 1138 citations. From the point of average citations per article, H. Joffe has the highest score (71.5). The data reported in this analysis contribute to discussions about the development, growth and current state of psychological health of postmenopausal women as well as its impact. These findings offer helpful guidance for researchers in choosing their potential fields of study and integrating different approaches to solve complicated issues, finding potential co-authors and choosing the right institutions for supporting academic studies or collaborative research.

Abstract
Background As compared to the flattened photon beam, removing the flattening filter (FF) from the head of a gantry decreases the average energy of the photon beam and increases the dose rate, leading to an impact on the quality of treatment plans. Objective This study aimed to compare the quality of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) treatment plans for esophageal cancer with and without a flattened filter photon beam. Material and Methods In this analytical study, 12 patients, who had already been treated with a 6X FF photon beam, were treated based on new IMRT methods using a 6X the flattening filter-free (FFF) photon beam. Both 6X FF IMRT and 6X FFF IMRT plans used identical beam parameters and planning objectives. All plans were evaluated with planning indices and doses for organs at risk (OARs). Results Insignificant dose variation was for HI, CI, D98%, and V95% between FF and FFF photon beam IMRT plans. FF-based IMRT plan delivered a 15.51 % and 11.27% higher mean dose to both lungs and heart than the FFF plan, respectively. The integral dose (ID) for the heart and lungs was 11.21% and 15.51%, respectively, less in the IMRT plan with an FFF photon beam. Conclusion In contrast to the FF photon beam, a filtered photon beam-oriented IMRT plan provides significant OAR sparing without losing the quality of the treatment plan. High monitor units (MUs), low ID, and Beam on Time (BOT) are major highlights of the IMRT plan with FFF beam.

Abstract
The objective of the study was to investigate the effects of a dacitic tuff breccia (DTB) on Eimeria-infected broilers. A total of 600 one-day-old Cobb 500 male chickens were randomly assigned to 5 treatments with 10 replicates of 12 birds. Treatments were: an unchallenged control (UC), a challenged (CC) control (0% DTB), and 3 challenged groups with 0.125, 0.25, or 0.5% DTB. At d 14, birds in the CC and DTB groups were orally gavaged with mixed Eimeria spp., while the UC received water. Growth performance was evaluated during prechallenge, challenge, and postchallenge periods (0-14 d; 14-20 d; and 20-26 d, respectively). Gastrointestinal permeability was measured at 5 days postinfection (dpi). Intestinal histology and nutrient digestibility of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), and ileal digestible energy (IDE) were measured at 6 dpi. Liver activity of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) was determined at 6 dpi, and concentrations of reduced (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) were analyzed at 6 and 12 dpi. Data were analyzed using a linear mixed model analysis and Tukey's test (P ≤ 0.05). From 0 to 14 d, similar average daily gain (ADG) and average daily feed intake (ADFI, P > 0.05) were observed. Gain:feed ratio (GF) was higher in 0.125, 0.25, and 0.5% of DTB than the CC and UC (P < 0.001). From 14 to 20 d, the UC had the highest ADG, ADFI, and GF (P < 0.001). At 5 dpi, intestinal permeability was higher in the challenged groups than the UC. Additionally, the UC showed the highest apparent ileal digestibility of CP, whereas 0.125% DTB had higher CP digestibility than the CC and 0.5% DTB (P < 0.001). At 6 dpi, 0.125% DTB increased GSH-Px activity compared to the CC, 0.5% DTB, and UC (P < 0.001). At 12 dpi, 0.125% DTB showed increased GSH concentration compared to the CC, 0.25% DTB, and 0.5% DTB (P < 0.01). The mild coccidia infection negatively impacted growth performance, apparent ileal nutrient digestibility, intestinal histology, and gastrointestinal integrity in broilers. The use of 0.125% DTB exhibited potential in improving antioxidant responses, apparent ileal digestibility of CP, and growth performance.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) is an omnipresent environmental pollutant. Despite being restrictions in-force for its utilization, it is widely being used in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. Direct, low-dose, and long-term exposure to BPA is expected when they are used in the packaging of food products and are used as containers for food consumption. Occupationally, workers are typically exposed to BPA at higher levels and for longer periods during the manufacturing process. BPA is a known endocrine disruptor chemical (EDC), that causes male infertility, which has a negative impact on human life from emotional, physical, and societal standpoints. To minimize the use of BPA in numerous consumer products, efforts and regulations are being made. Despite legislative limits in numerous nations, BPA is still found in consumer products. This paper examines BPA's overall male reproductive toxicity, including its impact on the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular (HPT) axis, hormonal homeostasis, testicular steroidogenesis, sperm parameters, reproductive organs, and antioxidant defense system. Furthermore, this paper highlighted the role of non-monotonic dose-response (NMDR) in BPA exposure, which will help to improve the overall understanding of the harmful effects of BPA on the male reproductive system.

Abstract
The longstanding phrase, traditional risk factors like-smoking, tobacco and alcohol are the only causative agents of oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is changing now. Etiological divergence is taking place which we have to know to reach upon an exact cause of the disease. Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is a well-established cause of oral cancer. Escalating incidence of HPV associated cancer has a strong impact on its management. So, a concern clinician needs to get aware for it. Among various types of HPV, HPV-16 is more frequently associated with oral cancers. HPV detection will become a game changer in management of oral cancers. HPV infection and p16 protein expression has a strong and consistent correlation. Therefore, immunohistochemical analysis of p16 protein can be a surrogate biomarker in high risk groups. This hospital based prospective observational study recruited 180 subjects of oral and oropharyngeal SCC. We underwent immunohistochemical analysis of p16 in biopsy specimen of subjects and studied HPV status and associated environmental, clinical and behavioral factors. We observed 9.4% (17/180) incidence of p16 positivity with female predominance. Our observations showed that its prevalence was higher in urban patients who were non tobacco users, had sexually transmitted disease, early stage (T1-T2), poorly differentiated SCC with nodal metastasis. We conclude that keeping in mind HPV as a cause of oral and oropharyngeal SCC, p16 should be use as a biomarker for its detection in high risk cases.

Abstract
Background Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) may have too many peaks and valleys, making the treatment plan undeliverable. When there are too many fluency differences between adjacent pixels in the X or Y directions, the X and Y smoothing factors are utilized as weighting factors to penalize this behavior. Generally, a high degree of complexity is accompanied by many monitor units (MUs), large number of segments, small sized segments, and complex segment shapes. The degree of plan delivery uncertainty can all increase with a higher detailed fluence map. Aim This study aims to evaluate the dosimetric effects of various smoothing levels on the planning target volume (PTV) and organs at risk (OARs) for cervix cancer. Materials and Methods IMRT treatment plans were re-optimized by combining several values of the X and Y penalty between 0 and 100. The dose-volume histogram assessed various dosimetric indicators for PTV and OARs. Additionally, gamma passing rates were evaluated and noted as an indicator of the complex treatment plan. Results At X = 60, Y = 60 fluence map penalty, the conformity index (CI) value reached its highest value of 0.996 ± 0.004. At X = 0, Y = 0, the homogeneity index (HI) was determined to have a maximum value of 0.0628 ± 0.0235. The highest and lowest MU values were 2424.30 ± 471.12 and 1087.80 ± 91.57, respectively, with X = 0, Y = 0 and X = 100, Y = 100. At X = 100, Y = 100, the gamma passing rate reaches its highest value of 99.28% ± 0.44% and minimum value of 85.93% ± 3.87% at X = 0, Y = 0. Conclusion The CI and HI values showed no discernible fluctuation, and the OAR doses were barely affected as smoothing was increased. When the smoothing factor was raised, the number of MUs sharply dropped, and a decrease in the number of segments and higher gamma passing rates were also seen.

Abstract
Background : Breast cancer molecular subtypes have been established a close relationship with site specific metastasis, disease prognosis, selection of therapy and response to therapy. This study is the evaluation of primary tumor molecular determinants and its clinical outcome in association with metastatic behavior of breast cancer. Material and Methods: This prospective study was included 221 patients of breast cancer registered in the department between January 2016 to December 2018. Based upon hormonal status, patients with breast cancer were categorized into four groups i.e. luminal (ER+, PR+, HER 2neu-), HER 2neu enriched (ER-, PR-, HER 2neu+), triple positive (ER+, PR+, HER 2neu+) and triple negative (ER-, PR-, HER 2neu-). Metastatic sites were divided into skeleton and visceral (lung, liver, and brain). The study data was compiled using Microsoft Excel sheet and Chi-Square test was used to assess the association between categorical variables. P value less than 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results : The mean age of the patients was 48.21±11.4 years (ranging from 22 to 80 years). About 36.7% and 24.9% patients were diagnosed as stage III A and stage II B respectively. Majority of patients were categorized as luminal (43%), followed by 24%, 17.2% and 15.8% as triple negative, triple positive and HER 2neu enriched respectively. Metastasis to bone following breast cancer was observed in majority i.e. 11.8% cases. Lung and liver metastasis observed in 6.3% cases each whereas brain metastasis was observed in 0.9% cases only. The higher proportions of TNBC cases metastasized to bone (22.6%), liver (7.5%), lung (7.5%) and brain (1.9%). The association between metastasis and hormonal status was statistically highly significant for bone metastasis (p<0.05). Conclusion : Breast cancer molecular subtypes have been related to considerable distinction in pattern of distant spread. Bone is the most predominant site of metastases followed by liver lung and brain. Luminal and HER 2 neu enriched subtypes having greater propensity for visceral metastasis where as TNBC predominantly show bone metastasis in this study. Keywords: Breast cancer, molecular subtypes, site-specific metastasis

Abstract
BACKGROUND The study was done to evaluate the feasibility, safety and outcomes of a one-stop thyroid clinic (OSTC) in a low- and middle-income country (LMIC) setting. METHODS This was a prospective non-randomised case control study consisting of patients with thyroid nodules evaluated and managed at a tertiary referral centre in an LMIC between February 2019 and January 2020. Patients were divided into two groups based on the kind of preoperative evaluation protocol: OSTC group (n = 118) - OSTC protocol, and control group (CG, n = 108) - routine protocol. RESULTS Baseline clinical characteristics of the two groups including median age (p = 0.13) and gender distribution (p = 0.76) were comparable. The majority of patients in both groups belonged to a low-income group (46.6% vs 47.3%; p = 0.91), followed by a middle-income group (35.6% vs 30.5%; p = 0.41). The median number of outpatient department visits (1 vs 3 days; p = < 0.001), waiting time for neck ultrasonography (1 vs 3 days; p = < 0.0001), fine needle aspiration cytology (1 vs 2 days; p = < 0.0001), and out of pocket expenditure (INR 3 965 vs 6 624; p = < 0.001) was significantly less in the OSTC group compared to the CG. Patients in the OSTC group reported better satisfaction levels (p = < 0.0001). Accuracy of diagnosis did not differ between the two groups (p = 0.14). CONCLUSION OSTC practice is feasible, provides comparative clinical outcomes and seems cost effective in an LMIC. This protocol can be adopted as a routine practice in any health system.

Background
India has among the world's highest burden of cardiovascular disease, potentially contributed by myocardial infarction. Despite growing trouble, there are no known post-discharge programs & randomized trials reporting health status outcomes & quality of life among post-myocardial infarction patients. Cardiac rehabilitation programs reduce mortality, therefore, it is crucial to understand the local burden of the disease, common challenges, public perceptions, develop timely & effective interventional programs.
Purpose
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a nurse-led lifestyle modification follow-up program on health outcomes & quality of life among post-myocardial infarction patients.
Methods
A two-arm randomized controlled trial was adopted & 104 post-myocardial infarction patients were recruited from August to December 2021. An equal number of participants were randomly assigned to intervention & control group by random number table generator. The control group patients received routine care, while the intervention group was provided routine care along with a nurse-led lifestyle modification follow-up program(health education, educational booklet, & telephone follow- up). A low-cost intervention based on information-motivation-behavioural skill model was developed. It was designed according to the needs of patients to know their risk factors, help patients establish a knowledge base, & adapt to the post-illness lifestyle changes. Data were assessed & compared by using the demographic datasheet, health outcomes datasheet, & MacNew heart disease quality of life questionnaire. All evaluations were conducted at baseline after 12 weeks post-discharge, by face-to-face interview & biophysiological measurements.
Results
The nurse-led lifestyle modification follow-up program was convenient for clinical application. The intervention group showed a appreciable improvement in low density lipoprotein(p=0.045), systolic blood pressure(p=0.009), diastolic blood pressure(p=0.044), body mass index(p=0.043), and NT ProBNP(p=0.007). The program effectively improved the lifestyle behaviours thereby considerably improving the quality of life in all the subscales-physical, emotional & social (p<0.001) after 12 weeks of discharge.
Conclusion
In the Indian context, it is a novel & extensive approach to improve access to health care and emphasizes post-discharge self-management. The greatest benefit of this program was allowing the intervention group participants to consult with us immediately. Since lifestyles vary among different individuals, we considered individuality when providing education & involving them in implementation of an intervention to enhance their confidence & ultimately achieve optimal health outcomes & quality of life. The findings of this study are important for health care professionals caring for post-myocardial infarction patients & direct incorporation of such programs into routine practice to reduce morbidity & mortality.

Abstract
Methotrexate leading to hypercalcaemia is a rarely reported adverse event. We present three elderly patients with inflammatory arthritis who developed hypercalcemia probably due to methotrexate-induced granulomatous pneumonitis. All patients presented with worsening non-productive cough with dyspnea, nausea, loss of appetite, and confusion. Their clinical and radiologic features were consistent with methotrexate-induced pneumonitis. On evaluation, all patients concurrently had hypercalcemia with normal 25OH D3, and low PTH with markedly elevated levels of 1,25OH D3 seen in two patients. In all three patients, hypercalcemia and pneumonia responded to hydration, corticosteroids, and methotrexate withdrawal. There was no relapse of symptoms on long term follow-up. In these three patients with inflammatory arthritis, methotrexate-induced pneumonitis led to symptomatic hypercalcemia. Unless hypercalcemia is looked for and treated in this setting, the morbidity can be high.

Abstract
BackgroundCoronavirus Disease (covid 19) negatively impacted psychosocial health, health care accessibility and exercise regimen but problem’s scope and potential solutions remain elusive. We conducted a patient based online survey to understand these impacts and discussed potential solutions.ObjectivesAssess impact of Covid 19 on rheumatological disease status, accessibility to health care, patient anxiety and behavior and continuation of physical activity during pandemic.MethodsGoogle form (18-question) based questionnaire was sent via SMS/WhatsApp in Aug 2020, at height of first pandemic and responses were collected over next month.ResultsOnly 339 /2700 patients (12.5 %) responded to the survey. Other authors (1)(2) have observed a similar low response rate to online surveys. We recognise questionnaires with fewer questions tend to generate more responses, which should be considered critical in constructing future health-related surveys. Patients’ global assessment of their disease score was 7/10, with 0 representing the worst disease status and10 representing best disease status, also 1/3 patients not felt need for rheumatological consultation during six months (March 2020- Aug 2020) of lockdown. These may imply adequate rheumatic disease control over long periods and during subsequent waves of pandemic, rheumatology patients can be shielded by avoiding non-urgent hospital follow up visits. Significant number of patients (20%) were unable to contact their rheumatologist, implying a significant impact of covid 19 and lockdown on rheumatology care, as suggested by other authors (1). As expected, there was switch to tele consultancy mode of communication, with 22 per cent of patients already using it within 3 months of its introduction, which appears to be a good indicator of future adaptability and feasibility of teleconsultation. Identifying specific profile of patients during physical consultation who can be easily managed via teleconsultation, may reduce unnecessary hospital visits while also improving healthcare delivery. 1/3 of our patients had anxiety about disease flare, and 41 %were concerned about increased risk of covid 19 infection as they were on immunosuppressive medications as noted by other authors (3). Improving access to health care and increasing public awareness could help alleviate this anxiety. Reaching out to isolated rheumatology patients through SMS / educational video may improve the sense of health security. Contrary to our expectations, overall medication adherence was reasonable, likely due to be management of supply chains by local authorities .15% completely stopped exercising and 25% reduced their exercise regimen by 50%. Shifting to home-based exercise, educational videos on physical therapy and online teleconsultation with physiotherapists could overall have positive impact.ConclusionCovid 19 has significantly impacted rheumatological patients in terms of increased anxiety, decreased healthcare accessibility and decreased exercise and physical activities. Modifications in teleconsultation methodology are needed in the future. Patients’ anxiety can be alleviated by educating them through digital and social media platforms and enrolling them in online patient support groups.References[1]Ganapati A, Padiyar S, Nair A, et al.

Abstract
Wnt-β-catenin signaling plays a key role in orthodontic tooth movement (OTM), a common clinical practice for malocclusion correction. However, its targeted periodontal ligament (PDL) progenitor cells remain largely unclear. In this study, we first showed a synchronized increase in Wnt-β-catenin levels and Axin2+ PDL progenitor cell numbers during OTM using immunostaining of β-catenin in wild-type mice and X-gal staining in the Axin2-LacZ knock-in line. Next, we demonstrated time-dependent increases in Axin2+ PDL progenitors and their progeny cell numbers within PDL and alveolar bones during OTM using a one-time tamoxifen-induced Axin2 tracing line (Axin2CreERT2/+; R26RtdTomato/+). Coimmunostaining images displayed both early and late bone markers (such as RUNX2 and DMP1) in the Axin2Lin PDL cells. Conversely, ablation of Axin2+ PDL cells via one-time tamoxifen-induced diphtheria toxin subunit A (DTA) led to a drastic decrease in osteogenic activity (as reflected by alkaline phosphatase) in PDL and alveolar bone. There was also a decrease in new bone mass and a significant reduction in the mineral apposition rate on both the control side (to a moderate degree) and the OTM side (to a severe degree). Thus, we conclude that the Axin2+ PDL cells (the Wnt-targeted key cells) are highly sensitive to orthodontic tension force and play a critical role in OTM-induced PDL expansion and alveolar bone formation. Future drug development targeting the Axin2+ PDL progenitor cells may accelerate alveolar bone formation during orthodontic treatment.

Abstract
Blood lead level (BLL) is the primary biomarker for lead-exposure monitoring in occupationally exposed workers. We evaluated occupational lead-exposure (OE) impact on cardiopulmonary functions in lead-acid battery recycling unit workers. Seventy-six OE cases and 30 control subjects were enrolled for questionnaire-based socio-demographic, dietary, tobacco usage, and medical history data. Anthropometric measurements, systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP), and pulmonary function tests were performed. Venous blood was collected for BLL, hematological analysis, and biochemical analysis. OE caused a significant increase in BLL, SBP, DBP, and small airways obstruction in lung function tests. It also impaired platelet indices, affected renal and liver biochemical measurements, and promoted oxidative stress and DNA damage. Multilinear regression analysis suggested that BLL affected SBP (β = 0.314, p = .034) and increased small airways obstruction (FEV1/FVC, β = -0.37, p = .05; FEV25-75%, β = -0.351, p = .016). Higher BLL appears to be an independent modulator of hypertension and poor pulmonary function upon occupational lead exposure in lead-acid battery recyclers.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
This study aims to assess the impact of pre-operative factors on the length of stay in patients following total knee replacement at our institution.
Method
A total of 478 patients following total knee replacement between January 2017-Decemeber 2019 are included in this study. All patients underwent total knee replacement with a medial rotating total knee prosthesis (MRK; Matt Ortho UK).
Data for each patient was collated retrospectively and included the following: Patient demographics (age and sex), American Society of Anaesthesiology (ASA) score, pre-operative range of movement (ROM), Body Mass Index (BMI), and pre-operative haemoglobin. Each factor was then compared with the length of stay for all 478 patients. Statistical significance was sort for each pre-operative factor for both men and women.
Results
Our cohort of patients includes 291 females and 187 males. Patients ranged from 39 to 90 years with an average age of 68. The average BMI of the cohort was 31.3(18.6–56.56) and the average ASA grade was 2.
Preoperative hemoglobin and the Age of the patient at the time of surgery were the only two factors which had a statistically significant impact on the length of hospital stay (p<0.05). BMI, Pre- operative range of motion and ASA scores had no statistically significant effect on the length of hospital stay in our cohort.
Conclusions
Low pre-operative hemoglobin and increasing age have significant effects on length of stay after total knee replacement. The BMI, pre-operative range of movement and ASA scores do not influence the length of hospital stay.

Abstract
This study was performed to investigate the effect of feeding Brassica spp. including full-fat rapeseed, canola meal, and allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) to broiler chicken challenged with E. maxima. A total of 576 one-day old male broiler chicks were completely randomized to 8 treatments with 6 replicated cages and 12 birds per cage. The treatment diets consisted of nonchallenge control (NC, corn-SBM based diet), challenge control (CC), 10% rapeseed (10RS), 30% rapeseed (30RS), 20% canola (20CLM), 40% canola (40CLM), 500 ppm AITC (500AITC), and 1,000 ppm AITC (1000AITC). At d 14, all birds were challenged, except NC group, with a subclinical dose of E. maxima. Intestinal permeability was conducted on 5 d post-infection (dpi) and for oocyst shedding 5 to 6 dpi feces were pooled and collected. On 6 dpi, growth performance, lesion score, histomorphology, and gene expression were measured. The growth performance result showed that 10RS and 30RS groups had lower BW, BWG, FI, and higher FCR (P < 0.0001). During the challenge and overall periods, NC group had highest BW, BWG, and FI, and lowest FCR. The inclusion of canola meal showed lower performance during prechallenge period but was able to catch up BWG during challenge period. The AITC levels showed similar growth performance to CC group. Intestinal permeability for 20CLM, 40CLM, 500AITC and 1000AITC was similar to NC group, whereas CC, 10RS, and 30RS had higher permeability compared to NC (P < 0.0001). Oocyst shedding was significantly lower for 40CLM and NC, whereas all other treatments had higher oocyst shedding (P < 0.0001). All the challenged treatment groups had higher lesion score and microscore than NC (P < 0.0001). Histomorphology data showed that jejunum villus height (VH) for 1000AITC was similar to NC group, whereas CC group had the lowest VH (P = 0.01). The 30RS group had lower VH: crypt depth (CD) ratio in the jejunum and ileum. The gene expression at 6 dpi for claudin1, occludin, IL2, IL6, GLUT5, EAAT, BoAT, and LAT1 was significantly changed among the treatments. The results suggest that 30RS retards growth performance and deteriorate gut health during coccidiosis and should not be fed to chicken during the starter phase. Canola meal showed decline in growth prechallenge but maintained growth and intestinal health during the challenge period at 40% inclusion. AITC at 1,000 ppm showed similar growth as control group, but with improved gut health during the challenge period. Canola meal could be a good alternative to SBM especially during coccidiosis, whereas AITC needs to be tested vigorously in animal feeding regime.

Abstract
Poultry is the major sources of foodborne salmonellosis. Antibiotic resistance and a surge in zoonotic diseases warrant the use of natural alternatives. Glucosinolates (GLs) are naturally occurring antimicrobial compounds in rapeseed and canola. This study investigated the effect of feeding rapeseed, canola meal, and allyl isothiocyanate (AITC; Brassica secondary metabolites) on growth performance (GP), gut health, and the potential antimicrobial activity against nalidixic acid-resistant Salmonella Typhimurium (STNR) in chickens. A total of 640 one-day-old male Cobb 500 broilers were randomly allocated to 8 treatments with 8 replicated cages and 10 birds per cage. Dietary treatments were nonchallenge control (NC, corn-SBM based), challenge (Salmonella) control (CC), 10% rapeseed (10RS), 30% rapeseed (30RS), 20% canola meal (20CLM), 40% canola meal (40CLM), 500 ppm AITC (500AITC), and 1,500 ppm AITC (1500AITC). On d 1, all the birds except NC were orally challenged with STNR (7 log CFU/bird). The chickens were reared for 21 d, and their FI and BW were recorded weekly. Salmonella cecal colonization and fecal shedding were quantified, whereas organ translocation (OT) of STNR to the spleen, liver, and kidney was tested on 0, 3, 6, 13, and 20-d postchallenge (dpc). Data were subjected to one-way ANOVA, and the means were separated by Duncan's test, except mortality and OT data analyzed after transformation by square root of (n +1) (P < 0.05). Overall, feeding 30RS resulted in reduced BW (P = 0.003), BWG (P = 0.003), and FI (P = 0.001) compared to CC, 500AITC, and 1500AITC. Similarly, feeding 20CLM resulted in lower BW and BWG compared to CC (P < 0.05) and increased FCR compared to 1500AITC (P = 0.03). Feeding CC resulted in higher mortality compared to NC and 30RS (P = 0.03). Cecal colonization of STNR was reduced (P < 0.0001) for 30RS on 6 dpc and 500AITC on 6 and 13 dpc (P < 0.0001). Although no difference in gut permeability was observed 6 dpc (P > 0.05), OT of STNR population was the highest for CC in the spleen (P = 0.05). In the liver, 10RS showed reduced OT compared to 20CLM on 13 dpc (P = 0.03), whereas 30RS showed the lowest OT on 6 dpc in the kidney. Fecal shedding was lowest for 30RS on 6 dpc (P = 0.004). Histomorphology showed 30RS had the highest duodenum (P = 0.01) and jejunum (P = 0.02) villus height (VH) and VH to crypt depth (CD) ratio compared to the other treatments, whereas 1500AITC showed similar results to 30RS. Both 30RS and 1500AITC contained comparatively higher functional GL metabolites and were able to maintain gut health. Including higher levels of rapeseed or AITC in poultry feed can reduce Salmonella colonization in the feces and their translocation to other organs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND India began COVID-19 vaccination in January 2021, initially targeting healthcare and frontline workers. The vaccination strategy was expanded in a phased manner and currently covers all individuals aged 18 years and above. India experienced a severe second wave of COVID-19 during March-June 2021. We conducted a fourth nationwide serosurvey to estimate prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the general population aged ≥6 years and healthcare workers (HCWs). METHODS AND FINDINGS We did a cross-sectional study between 14 June and 6 July 2021 in the same 70 districts across 20 states and 1 union territory where 3 previous rounds of serosurveys were conducted. From each district, 10 clusters (villages in rural areas and wards in urban areas) were selected by the probability proportional to population size method. From each district, a minimum of 400 individuals aged ≥6 years from the general population (40 individuals from each cluster) and 100 HCWs from the district public health facilities were included. The serum samples were tested for the presence of IgG antibodies against S1-RBD and nucleocapsid protein of SARS-CoV-2 using chemiluminescence immunoassay. We estimated the weighted and test-adjusted seroprevalence of IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, along with 95% CIs, based on the presence of antibodies to S1-RBD and/or nucleocapsid protein. Of the 28,975 individuals who participated in the survey, 2,892 (10%) were aged 6-9 years, 5,798 (20%) were aged 10-17 years, and 20,285 (70%) were aged ≥18 years; 15,160 (52.3%) participants were female, and 21,794 (75.2%) resided in rural areas. The weighted and test-adjusted prevalence of IgG antibodies against S1-RBD and/or nucleocapsid protein among the general population aged ≥6 years was 67.6% (95% CI 66.4% to 68.7%). Seroprevalence increased with age (p < 0.001) and was not different in rural and urban areas (p = 0.822). Compared to unvaccinated adults (62.3%, 95% CI 60.9% to 63.7%), seroprevalence was significantly higher among individuals who had received 1 vaccine dose (81.0%, 95% CI 79.6% to 82.3%, p < 0.001) and 2 vaccine doses (89.8%, 95% CI 88.4% to 91.1%, p < 0.001). The seroprevalence of IgG antibodies among 7,252 HCWs was 85.2% (95% CI 83.5% to 86.7%). Important limitations of the study include the survey design, which was aimed to estimate seroprevalence at the national level and not at a sub-national level, and the non-participation of 19% of eligible individuals in the survey. CONCLUSIONS Nearly two-thirds of individuals aged ≥6 years from the general population and 85% of HCWs had antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 by June-July 2021 in India. As one-third of the population is still seronegative, it is necessary to accelerate the coverage of COVID-19 vaccination among adults and continue adherence to non-pharmaceutical interventions.

Abstract
The Education system in India underwent a major change due to the sudden lockdown announced by the Government in view of COVID – 19 pandemic. Both teachers and students had to shift to online mode in a very short time period. The present study analysis the positive and negative aspect of this online mode of education and measures adopted by teachers to maintain the flow of education along with attendance. The sur- vey was conducted at JSS Academy of Technical Education, Noida. More than 100 teachers and students participated in the survey conducted. Also experienced faculty came up with sug- gestions and ideas to improve the online mode of education in view of such pandemic situations. Two teachers who were also teaching kids at an NGO school running in the campus prem- ises shared their view on what efforts they took to let education reach the kids at the NGO as digital divide was the main prob- lem there. Such findings will help in designing a future teach- ing model to cope with pandemic situations and not let educa- tion suffer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recurrence of periampullary cancer after pancreatoduodenectomy is common. The aim of this study was to investigate patterns of recurrence, incidence, and factors associated with local and distant recurrences. METHODS This retrospective, single-centre study included consecutive patients with periampullary cancer who underwent resection with curative intent from January 2012 to January 2018. Survival, patterns of recurrence, and factors associated with recurrences were analysed. RESULTS Median overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival among 398 included patients was 58.4 and 49.5 months respectively. Twenty-three patients (5.8 per cent) developed isolated local recurrences (LR), 50 (12.6 per cent) developed LR along with distant metastasis (DM), and 103 (25.9 per cent) developed isolated DM. Median OS was 40.4 months for patients with isolated LR versus 23 months for those with DM (P < 0.001). Tumour subtype (distal common bile duct (CBD): odds ratio (OR) 6.18, 95 per cent c.i. 2.19 to 17.46) and node-positive status (OR 2.36, 1.26 to 4.43) were independently associated with higher rates of LR. The most common site for isolated LR was along the superior mesenteric artery (12 of 23 patients). Tumour subtype (distal CBD: OR 2.86, 1.09 to 7.52), nodal positivity (OR 2.46, 1.53 to 3.94), and presence of perineural invasion (OR 1.80, 1.02 to 3.18) were independently associated with DM. CONCLUSION Isolated LR is associated with better survival than DM and occurs most commonly along the superior mesenteric artery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Earlier serosurveys in India revealed seroprevalence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) of 0.73% in May-June 2020 and 7.1% in August-September 2020. A third serosurvey was conducted between December 2020 and January 2021 to estimate the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection among the general population and healthcare workers (HCWs) in India. METHODS The third serosurvey was conducted in the same 70 districts as the first and second serosurveys. For each district, at least 400 individuals aged ≥10 years from the general population and 100 HCWs from subdistrict-level health facilities were enrolled. Serum samples from the general population were tested for the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against the nucleocapsid (N) and spike (S1-RBD) proteins of SARS-CoV-2, whereas serum samples from HCWs were tested for anti-S1-RBD. Weighted seroprevalence adjusted for assay characteristics was estimated. RESULTS Of the 28,598 serum samples from the general population, 4585 (16%) had IgG antibodies against the N protein, 6647 (23.2%) had IgG antibodies against the S1-RBD protein, and 7436 (26%) had IgG antibodies against either the N protein or the S1-RBD protein. Weighted and assay-characteristic-adjusted seroprevalence against either of the antibodies was 24.1% [95% confidence interval (CI) 23.0-25.3%]. Among 7385 HCWs, the seroprevalence of anti-S1-RBD IgG antibodies was 25.6% (95% CI 23.5-27.8%). CONCLUSIONS Nearly one in four individuals aged ≥10 years from the general population as well as HCWs in India had been exposed to SARS-CoV-2 by December 2020.

Abstract
Earthworms (Clitellata, Moniligastridae) of Chaliyar River Malappuram, Eravikulam National Park, Neyyar Wildlife Sanctuary, Parambikulam Tiger Reserve, Peppara Wildlife Sanctuary, Periyar National Park, Shendurney Wildlife Sanctuary and Wayanad Forest, Kerala, a component of the hotspot of Western Ghats, India, were studied by the standard method of taxonomy, and their DNA barcode signatures using the mitochondrial gene cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) were generated for the first time. This study
represents eleven species of earthworms of the family Moniligastridae: Drawida brunnea Stephenson, Drawida circumpapillata Aiyer, Drawida ghatensis Michaelsen, Drawida impertusa Stephenson, Drawida nilamburensis (Bourne), Drawida robusta (Bourne), Drawida scandens Rao, Drawida travancorense Michaelsen, Moniligaster aiyeri Gates, Moniligaster deshayesi Perrier, and Moniligaster gravelyi (Stephenson). In the phylogenetic analysis all the species were recovered in both neighbour–joining (NJ) and maximum likelihood (ML) trees with high clade support. The average K2P distance within and between species was 1.2 % and 22 %, whereas the clear barcode gap of 2–5 % was suggested by barcode gap analysis (BGA) of studied species, reflecting the accuracy of characterization. The study presents the first step in the molecular characterization of the native earthworm family Moniligastridae of India.

Abstract
A 45-year-old male presented with a slowly progressive, painless swelling in his right eye for the past 6 months. He had undergone an open globe injury repair 10 years back and an eventful cataract surgery 5 years back. The presenting visual acuity in the affected eye was perception of light with inaccurate projection of rays. The intraocular pressure was 44 mm Hg with advanced glaucomatous cupping. The swelling was identified to be a communicating sub-tenon cyst secondary to scleral wound dehiscence from secondary angle closure glaucoma. Wound re-suturing, cyst excision and diode laser cyclophotocoagulation was performed in a single sitting, with explained poor visual prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy and safety of incisional goniotomy as an adjunct to phacoemulsification in primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) patients. METHODS Consecutive patients with PACG (high or borderline IOP) deemed fit for phacoemulsification were enrolled. After phacoemulsification, incisional goniotomy was performed with or without goniosynechialysis. Patient demographic profile, clinical data, and adverse events, if any, were analyzed during at least a 6-month follow-up period. Success was defined as IOP of 18 mm Hg or lesser with or without medications. SETTING Tertiary care Ophthalmic hospital. DESIGN Prospective interventional case series. RESULTS Of 46 eyes (38 patients) included, 69.6% eyes were classified as having advanced glaucoma. The mean treated IOP decreased by 7.3 ± 1.0 (SE) mm Hg (95% CI, 5.2-9.3) from 21.4 ± 6.6 to 14.2 ± 3.7 mm Hg at a mean duration of 11.7 ± 5.5 months (6-22 months) postoperatively (P < .001, paired t test). There was 66.6% reduction in median number of hypotensive medications (P < .001, Wilcoxon signed-rank test). Observed complications included hyphema (13 eyes [28%]), IOP spike (3 eyes [6.5%]), and cyclodialysis (1 eye [2.17%]). High treated IOP and number of medications were significantly associated with failure in univariate analysis (P < .05, Fisher exact test). The cumulative survival probability for qualified success at 22 months was 87.8% ± 0.07 (95% CI, 0.65-0.96). CONCLUSIONS Incisional goniotomy as an adjunct with phacoemulsification resulted in a significant and sustained reduction in IOP along with decrease in number of glaucoma medications in chronic PACG eyes, irrespective of the disease stage.

Abstract
Background Iridium-192 (192Ir) has been a widely accepted radioisotope for high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy. Recently, Cobalt-60 (60Co) radioisotope with a longer half-life (5.26 years) has been gaining popularity due to economic and logistical reasons as compared with the traditional 192Ir. Aim This study aimed to evaluate and compare the integral dose (ID) to the target and organs at risk (OARs) with two HDR brachytherapy sources in brachytherapy treatment of carcinoma uterine cervix to find appropriate HDR radioisotopes for clinical benefit. Materials and Methods This is a retrospective analysis of 52 computed tomography image-based brachytherapy plans of 52 patients who have received intracavitary treatment with 192Ir HDR source. For each patient plan, one additional set of plan was created using 60Co source in place of 192Ir source keeping the same dwell position, and again dose was optimized. The volume and mean dose for target, OARs, and volume structures of 400%, 200%, 150%, 100%, and 50% were recorded for the estimation and comparison of ID. Results The mean ID to high-risk clinical target volume was significantly higher by 5.84% in 60Co plan than that in 192Ir plan. For OARs, the mean ID to the rectum was significantly higher by 2.60% in 60Co plan as compared to 192Ir plan, whereas for bladder and sigmoid colon, it was lower in 60Co plan than that in 192Ir plan. The mean ID of central dose volume structures of 400%, 200%, 150%, 100%, and 50% was higher by 12.97%, 9.77%, 8.16%, 6.10%, and 3.22%, respectively, in 60Co plan than that of 192Ir plan. Conclusion The results of our study concluded that 192Ir HDR radioisotope should be preferred for intracavitary brachytherapy due to its ideal physical characteristics for better clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Introduction: Traditional Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) techniques used many beam angles; the result of this is significant increase in beam on time as well as Monitor Units (MU) also. Due to all of these there is a need of faster treatment modality to increase the patient comfort and lesser organ movement. Aim: To compare the triple arc RapidArc technique with nine field IMRT techniques for different head and neck cancer, focusing on target coverage and dose received by the Organs At Risk (OARs). Materials and Methods: Retrospectively, Computed Tomography (CT) datasets of 20 patients of Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) of the Oro-pharynx and Hypo-pharynx treated during January 2019 to December 2019 were chosen for this study. For every patient, two different treatment plans were created, one by using the triple arc RapidArc technique and others by using nine fixed fields IMRT technique. For Planning Target Volume (PTV), the dose volume parameters D98% and D2% (dose received by the 98%, and 2% of the volume), homogeneity index, and Conformity Index (CI) were evaluated for dosimetric comparison. For OARs, the analysis included the mean dose, the maximum dose expressed as D2%. Additionally, the Beam On Time (BOT) and the number of MUs were analysed. A paired two-tailed t-test was performed to compare the RapidArc technique with the IMRT technique for radiotherapy treatment of different head and neck cancers. The p-value <0.05 was considered for the significance of statistical inferences. Results: Comparable target coverage and better sparing of OARs were achieved with the RapidArc technique in comparison to IMRT. Homogeneity and conformity were also in favour of the RapidArc plan. The dosimetric results with I’MatriXX measurements of RapidArc plans were similar to IMRT plans. All detector points passed 3 mm and 3% gamma criteria for IMRT plans and also for RapidArc plans. Conclusion: RapidArc is a faster and precise treatment technique. RapidArc provides better target coverage with good OARs sparing. Most significant change occurs in the number of MUs and treatment time, which is much lesser in RapidArc.

Abstract
Introduction: The method of radiotherapy has moved away from two-dimensional and three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy towards Volumetric-Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) for advanced carcinomas. VMAT treatments often result in significant clinical advantage, particularly when concave dose distributions are required as is often the situation since these tumours are in close proximity to several critical structures. Aim:To investigate the potential clinical role of volumetric arc therapy on cervical cancer patients and its comparison with fixed-field Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) was used as a benchmark. Materials and Methods: Retrospectively, radiotherapy treatment plans of fifteen cervical cancer patients were selected for this study. These patients were previously treated with sliding window IMRT techniques during January 2020 to November 2020. For dosimetric comparison of sliding window IMRT techniques with RapidArc, a new set of plans were created using VMAT/RapidArc technique. For each patient two plans were generated and in this way total 30 plans were analysed. The prescription dose to Planning Target Volume (PTV) was 50.4 Gy in 28 fractions (1.8Gy/fraction) for the 6 MV photon beam. Comparison of each plan done on the basis of Organs At Risk (OARs) sparing, coverage index (C), Conformity Index (CI), Homogeneity Index (HI), dose Gradient Index (GI), and Unified Dosimetry Index (UDI). This study utilised UDI scoring for evaluation and comparison of RapidArc and IMRT plans. Treatment Time (TT) for patient comfort and the number of Monitor Units (MUs) for long-term side-effects was also taken into consideration. A paired two-tailed t-test was executed for the dosimetric study of volumetric arc modulation with RapidArc and its comparison with the IMRT technique in the radiotherapy treatment of cervical cancer patients. All the collected data was analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0. The (p-value<0.05) was contemplated for the level of statistical significance. Results: Comparable target coverage and better sparing of OARs were achieved with the RapidArc technique in comparison to IMRT. As was evident with results of present study, the values of CI (1.55±0.07), HI (1.07±0.07), GI (0.98±0.01) and UDI (1.25±0.11) of RapidArc technique showed significant difference from respective values of IMRT Technique (1.67±0.06, 1.10±0.06, 0.96±0.01 and 1.38±0.13). Values of MUs (1560.47±52.16) and treatment time (3.71±0.73 mins) were significantlly high in IMRT technique as compared to RapidArc technique (542.33±51.09 and 2.39±0.35 mins respectively). Conclusion: From this study, it is clear that a similar planning goal can be achieved by RapidArc in comparison to fixed-field IMRT with less normal organ toxicity. RapidArc is a faster and precise treatment technique. The most significant change comes to see in the number of MUs and TT, which is much lesser in RapidArc.

Abstract
The current advances and innovations in sensor technologies attributed to Industry 4.0 serve as the backbone for the inclusive growth of industry and ramping up the economy of any country. Industry 4.0 was basically conceptualized by introducing the Internet of Things (IoT) and Information and Communication technologies (ICT) that serve as an interface between digital and physical world through the fusion of smart sensors. The role of smart sensors and IoT-enabled industrial infrastructure is pivotal for adapting to the advanced technologies based on fusion of smart sensors. Digital meteorological traceability and uses of intelligent sensors, instrumentation and machinery in Industry 4.0, Smart Cities, Digital India and AtmaNirbhar Bharat missions of the government of India, are not only highly important but also in huge demand, which is going to increase manifolds in the years to come. The present paper is an attempt to provide a terse review and perspectives related to the advanced technological developments in this field and the challenges therein.
