Perioperative stress relief: a new role for the love hormone???
Abstract: AbstractThe hormone oxytocin(OXT) was originally known to stimulate labour and maternal milk ejection. It is also known to produce anti-stress like effects, anxiolytic effects, improvement in social interaction, reduction in blood pressure and cortisol levels and promotion of growth and healing. It is in fact popularly called as the ‘love hormone’, or the ‘hug hormone’ or the ‘cuddle hormone’. It is administered commonly intravenously in labor rooms and maternity suites …

Comprehensive Strategies for the Prevention and Management of Genital Thrush in Males and Females: A Public Health Approach in Punjab (September 2024 to February 2025)
Abstract: Background: Genital thrush, a common fungal infection caused mainly by Candida albicans, affected both men and women, leading to itching, discomfort, and recurrent infections. In Punjab, high humidity, poor hygiene awareness, excessive antibiotic use, and limited access to healthcare contributed to its widespread occurrence. Without effective prevention and management strategies, the condition significantly impacted quality of life. Addressing this issue through a public health approach was essential for reducing its …

A Clinical Insight Into Management of Left Sided Hydrocele through Homoeopathy: A Case Report
Abstract: Hydrocele is a common condition in pediatric age groups, characterized by the accumulation of serous fluid within the tunica vaginalis surrounding the testis. While many cases resolve spontaneously within the first one to two years of life, persistent hydrocele beyond this period is generally managed surgically. The present case highlights the role of individualized homoeopathic treatment as a conservative approach in such conditions. A 2-year-old male child presented with left-sided …

Optimization of reflectance based on SAG Structure using Plane Wave Expansion
Abstract: For future filter applications, we examine the silicon-based ternary grating SAG (silicon on air on glass) structure. Grating is accomplished by a one-dimensional grating structure composed of ternary periodic structure, where ternary period is realized by combining silicon-air-silicon dioxide layers. The plane wave expansion method (PWE) is utilized to mimic the reflections from such periodic structures. The simulation outcome divulges that the number of layers in the periodic structures have …

Clinical Practice: The Differential Diagnosis of Dental Pain
Abstract: In clinical dental practice, patients often present with pain in the oral cavity. While some oral pain may be generalized in nature, the clinician has to consider other factors that involve pain and discomfort. Many symptomatic teeth do not need endodontic treatment – on the contrary, they have undiagnosed occlusal problems, caries, fractures or referred pain. For the teeth needing endodontic treatment, this paper provides several modes of diagnostic methodology. …
