Comparative Evaluation of the Use of LSTR with Double Antibiotic Paste Versus Zinc Oxide Eugenol as Obturating Material in Primary Teeth Pulpectomy
Abstract: The management of infected primary teeth is a vital aspect of pediatric dentistry, with the primary objective being the retention of the tooth in the oral cavity until its natural exfoliation. Preserving the health, structure, and appearance of primary teeth is essential for ensuring the correct eruption and alignment of permanent teeth. Pulpectomy has traditionally been the preferred treatment for primary teeth with irreversible pulp damage. Traditionally, Zinc Oxide Eugenol …

Li-Fi in Surgery: A Study
Abstract: The operating theatre is increasingly saturated with wireless devices that contend for limited radiofrequency (RF) spectrum, creating a latent risk of electromagnetic interference (EMI) with lifesupporting equipment. Light Fidelity (LiFi), a visiblelight communication technology that modulates LED illumination to transmit data, offers a compelling, RFfree alternative for intraoperative networking. This study investigates the feasibility, performance, and clinical impact of deploying a LiFi infrastructure to support highdefinition video streaming, realtime telemetry, …

Formulation Challenges in Long-acting Injectable Small Molecules: Emerging Strategies and Perspectives
Abstract: Long-acting injectable (LAI) formulations represent a transformative approach in pharmacotherapy, particularly for conditions demanding sustained drug exposure over weeks to months. Although biologics have dominated this space historically, the adaptation of LAI technology to small molecules presents a distinct and complex set of challenges rooted in physicochemical properties, manufacturing scalability, and regulatory expectations. This review systematically addresses the principal formulation barriers encountered in developing LAI small-molecule products, including aqueous solubility …
