Impact of School-Based Oral Hygiene Education on Knowledge and Attitude among School Children Aged 10–15 Years in a Selected Rural Community of Bangalore
Abstract: This quasi-experimental study evaluated a structured teaching program (STP) designed to improve oral hygiene knowledge and attitudes in 10–15-year-old students from a rural Bangalore community. Before the program, most students demonstrated limited understanding of dental care and negative attitudes toward oral hygiene. After the STP, both knowledge and favorable attitudes increased markedly (paired t-test, p<0.001). For example, the mean knowledge scores increased substantially after the intervention, demonstrating a level of …

Biodegradable and Natural Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites for Co-Delivery of Multiple Therapeutic Agents
Abstract: The co-delivery of multiple drugs using advanced nanocarriers has revolutionized targeted therapy in various diseases, particularly in cancer, infectious diseases, and neurological disorders. Multi-layered polymeric nanocarriers (MLPNs) offer a sophisticated platform to encapsulate multiple therapeutic agents with precise control over drug release, bioavailability, and synergistic effects. These nanocarriers are designed with distinct polymer layers that enable sequential or simultaneous drug release based on stimuli-responsive mechanisms such as pH, temperature, and …

A SHAP - Enhanced Voice-Based Conversational Agent for Agriculture Using BERT
Abstract: The integration of advanced artificial intelligence technologies into modern agriculture has become increasingly important for narrowing the persistent knowledge gap faced by farmers, especially in regions with limited access to expert advisory services. While state-of-the-art language models such as BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) demonstrate exceptional performance in understanding and generating natural language, their opaque “black-box” nature often limits user confidence, trust, and widespread adoption. Farmers may hesitate to …

Design, Synthesis, and in vitro Evaluation of Novel Benz/Imidazole-2-acetonitrile Derivatives as Antibacterial and Antifungal Agents
Abstract: Benzimidazole is a pharmaceutically important compound. In this research, we were able to prepare several heterocyclic derivatives from it by first preparing a new azo derivative ZH through a reaction of 3-aminoacetophenone with benzimidazole-2-acetonitrile. This azo derivative was then introduced via a condensation reaction with aromatic amine derivatives, resulting in the preparation of two Schiff base derivatives Z1 and Z2. From these bases, six and seven membered heterocyclic derivatives were …

Experimental Analysis of the Effect of Fine Milled Husk of Rice as a Novel Filtration Control Agent for Water Based Drilling Fluid System
Abstract: Drilling operation is a complex process that requires integration of various engineering systems. As the drilling continues, the formation encountered offers challenges to wellbore integrity as pressure increases with depth. The influx of formation fluid is contained by the overbalance provided by weighted drilling fluid column. Another critical function of the mud is to restrict the filtration fluid lost to the formation by forming a suitable mud-cake around the wellbore. …

Proper Case Selection to Ensure Judicious Use of Antimicrobial Agents in the Treatment of Periodontal Disease
Abstract: It is now well-known that dental plaque exists as a biofilm, and specific plaque bacteria such as A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis are responsible for the initiation and progression of periodontitis. Plaque bacteria within the biofilm are partially protected from antibiotics and host immune reactions. The strategy of periodontal treatment should include a break-up of the biofilm and subsequent elimination of periodontal pathogens. Plaque biofilms cannot be eliminated by daily …
