Abstract

The present study was designed evaluate the structural morphology of palatal rugae in Kerala orthodonticsubjects with varying Sagittal Skeletal Malocclusions. Pretreatment maxillary casts of 105 patients wereanalyzed for rugae patterns qualitatively and quantitatively using modified Thomas and Kotze classification.The data were statistically analyzed. According to the Fishers exact test, the most common type of rugaepattern in all the groups (Class I, Class II, and Class III) were observed to be wavy followed by curved.Skeletal Class III had the highest number of straight rugae 71.4% among the three groups which wasstatistically significant. Direction of rugal alignment was horizontal and droplet-shaped incisive papillawas identified among different skeletal dysplasia groups.Palatal ruage may serve as valuable indicators forpopulation identification and help in facial reconstructions through their association with varying skeletalmalocclusions.

Abstract

Fingerprints of 40 individuals of age group 4-18 years were sampled from Agyaram Kherbari L.P. School, D. L. P School and J.N. M. E school (Dhubri District) to study the pattern of fingerprints and their relation with dental caries as they may be associated with the disease and serve as a predictor for early detection of it. Analysis was carried out in the affected individuals and it was found that the per centage of ulnar loop is highest (23.75%) in females and also in males (19.7%) and per centage of lateral loop is lowest (1.25% and 1.24%), whereas the control had more per centage of ulnar loop in both males and females. The study shows an association of dermatoglyphic pattern of fingerprints and prevalence of dental caries.

Abstract

Burns are the injuries that are produced by application of dry heat such as flame, radiant heat or some heated soiled substance like metal or glass from the surface of the body resulting in tissue destruction. According to WHO estimates about 2,65,000 deaths occur each year from fires alone globally, with more deaths from scalds, electrical burns, and other forms of burns for which data are not available. The majority of these deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries, with almost half occur in the WHO South-East Asia Region. In India around 7 million people suffer from burn injuries each year with 1.4 lakh deaths and 2.4 lakh people suffer with disability. Burn death rates have been decreasing in high income countries.1Burn injury are higher in females than males. The higher risk for females is associated with open fire cooking, or unsafe cook stoves, loose clothing. Self-directed or interpersonal violence is also a factor for burn injuries. The present study is retrospective study which was carried out in the Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology at B. J. Medical College and Civil Hospital, Ahmedabad during the period from January 2018 to December 2018 to determine trends & pattern in unnatural female death due to burns cases and their practical approach to shrinkage the incidence of female burns cases as much as possible. In study we come across some particularized factor which exaggerated the recent condition in the society. The various facets are investigated and conferred in specifics.

Abstract

Background: Rounded shoulder is a common postural abnormality in young adults due to abnormal posture adaptation while working. It may lead to decrease in thoracic mobility and increase in intradiscal pressure. In severe cases breathing problem may occur due to changes in the anterio-posterior diameter. Few studies have shown the effect of elastic band exercise on rounded shoulder to improve the postural alignment. Shoulder stabilization exercises and pectoralis minor stretching is also effective in rounded shoulder. In these study structured exercise were use to correct the rounded shoulder posture and to prevent the further complication. Objective: To find out the effectiveness of structured exercise programme on subjects with rounded shoulder. Material and method: In this pre-post intervention study 32 individuals with rounded shoulders were included. They were randomly divided into 2 groups with 16 individuals in each group. Group A were treated with structured exercises and Group B were treated with elastic band exercises for 4 weeks. After pre-post assessment, data was analysed with the help of appropriate statistical methods. Results: According to the statistical analysis there is significant decrease in measurement of rounded shoulder in both Group A and Group B with p value <0.0010 and <0.0001 respectively. Conclusion: Structured exercise and elastic band exercises both are equally effective in improving the rounded shoulders.
