<![CDATA[Depression is the most often encountered in the world of mental illness. In adulthood these mental disordersdo not understand as people do not want to share their mental illness with health care providers, they arefearful of receiving approval from the physician. The community people in the last century did not accept theexistence of mental illness to the children. Nowadays some studies can provide evidence of mental illnessand treatment, or the medical field is also evolving so that people believe disease and death rates. Earlierstudies show that depression is prevalent in adolescents (10% to 60%). The mood disorder (depressivemood) may inform lows all around, people may go to sadness in this condition, and in a severe case, peoplemay end their lives. A person may suffer for a long period in a situation in which he or she feels sad anddoes not participate in social, personal, professional life. In all life situations, the person feels low and doesnot feel pleasure in everyday life, so if the individual can feel these things in their life so that they considerdepression. 3 influence of depression mood which is unusual at a particular age. This can lead to negativeeffects on a friend, social, and family relationship. 4 most suicide and suicidal behavior can lead to majordepressive disorders. Younger depression can lead to chronic waxing and increased risk of major depressionin adulthood. Some studies can indicate that depression may occur early in adulthood as opposed to people’spast lives.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction- Dentistry goes back to about 5000 BC when a “tooth worm” was believed to be the source ofdental caries. Repeated processes of acid generation lead to the superficial degradation of calcified tissue inthe tooth, and consequently cavitation. Work has shown that enamel demineralisation happens at a pH of 5.5and below. World Health Organization (WHO) mission is Health for all. Fluoride containing drinking waterand supplements such as tablets, gums, gel, and toothpastes are the major sources that could be responsiblefor increased fluoride consumption.At various periods of tooth growth, the ingestion of unnecessary fluoridemay have a number of consequences on teeth, including the presence of white lines or streaks on enamel,yellow or brown streaks on enamel, and the general participation of enamel with white or dark chalky stains.Material and method- A systematic Search Strategy was framed using the specific keywords related toDental Caries and Dental Fluorosis. The Web of Science Database was accessed and Search Query wasinput as “KP= (“Dental Caries*” OR “dental fluorosis*” OR “school children 8-13 Years*” OR DMFT* OR“Dean’s fluorosis Index*”)”.Result- Search output generated total 210 documents from 111 Sources (Journals, Books, etc.)Over theperiod from 1999 – 2020. Total Author’s Keywords (DE) were 664Conclusion- Dental caries is genuinely a neurological disease whose nature primarily depends on theexistence of fermentable sugar, host factors, cariogenic microbial flora and other related environmentalconditions. Researchers have proposed numerous theories within the context of dental caries. Fluoride isamong the relatively few contaminants that may cause significant public safety impacts in drinking water.Various types of exposure to fluoride have been found to influence systemic F material, thereby raising thelikelihood of fluoride sensitive diseases.]]>

<![CDATA[Pediatric oncology has a major role in research. This paper discuss about the ethical consequences ofphysiotherapy care and research in Pediatric Oncology. Empirical ethics is a broad division,grasping,difference in indicatingethics and empirical research. A major Australian tertiary teaching hospital revealsthat 65 % of patient presents with specific indication for physiotherapy, in that only12.8% are receivingphysiotherapy. Indications includes in physiotherapy care are pain, lymph- oedema, incontinence, respiratoryand musculoskeletal Problems also it includes hard to move. Physiotherapy has extensive role inpalliativeoncology, it also has large preventative ,educative and supportive roles to play and provides independentand complementary therapies for physical debility and pain. Pain from reflex spasm and contracture aredealt with Physiotherapists. Founded that no reference based on standard of life and quality-adjusted lifeyears in terms of preventing dependance and avoid hospitalisation. Treatment of pediatric oncology oftenhas physically, socially and psychologically demands. Always there must be some ethical reason for allthe decision on treatment and care for a patient with cancer. It is a fact that ethics needs not only all thestakeholders to do the right things but also it needs the one who do it in the right way. Research practice hasled us to great advances in pediatric oncology and the proportion is greater in children than adults. Obtainingthe informed consent and assent was the most important ethical challenges faced during the research.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Patient safety is an emerging field in healthcare that has indirectly or directly affected allstakeholders of healthcare delivery system in the last decade. World Health Organization guidelines foradverse event reporting and learning systems, 2005 describes adverse events as “an injury related to medicalmanagement in contrast to complications of disease.” These adverse events can be preventable or nonpreventable. Inpatient falls presents a serious challenge to the safety and quality of patients in hospitals.Falls are not harmless, they delays in functional recovery and prolonged hospitalization that can causepatients to suffer. The study was conducted to estimate the incidence and major reasons for falls. Methods:Retrospectively, case records from January 2016 to September 2018 of all the inpatients were researched forpatient fall incidents, reported to the committee. The committee findings noted and the costs were estimatedin terms of cost to the patients, and costs to the hospital. Results: 118 incidents of patient fall happenedin study period. 3(2.6%) of them experienced two or more falls during stay, 115 (97.4%) fell once.5 patients were morbidly obese. Costs to the hospital on each patient was Rs. 5412/-, not levied onpatients. Conclusion: The number of fall incidents and falls reporting system have been improved by earlydetection of reasons by conducting root cause analysis.]]>

<![CDATA[Thymomas are the common neoplasms of mediastinum, and type AB is the most frequent case. All thymomasare potential for invasion to adjacent tissues and considered malignant. Capsular invasion is one of itsprognostic indicators. Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) is a family of proteinases that has the abilityto degrade a component of extracellular matrix and affect tumor invasion and or metastasis. Cytoplasmicexpression of p21 protein can be significantly correlated with invasion and metastasis. The correlation of thesetwo proteins in thymoma has not been widely studied, hence we aimed to analyze the expression of MMP-2and p21 and investigate their correlation with capsular invasion of thymoma AB. This cross-sectional studywas performed on the 24 paraffin-embedded samples of thymomectomy during January 2013-Desember2019 at Anatomical Pathology Laboratory of Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya. The samples weredevided based on capsular invasion into 2 groups. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to detectexpression of p21 and MMP-2. The correlation was statistically analyzed using Spearman test. There wasno significant difference of MMP-2 expression between thymoma with capsular invasion and withoutcapsular invasion (p=0.839), and also no significant difference of p21 expression between thymoma withcapsular invasion and without capsular invasion (p=0.816). No correlation of MMP-2 and p21 expressionsin thymoma AB was revealed (p=0.255). In thymoma AB, the expression of MMP-2 and p21 were notcorrelate with capsular invasion. These results may contribute to the development of thymoma research.]]>
