Therefore, it is of interest to assess the psychological and physical effects of personal protective equipment (PPE) among HCWs caring for COVID-19 patients. This cross-sectional study utilized a validated, well-structured questionnaire consisting of 24 questions to collect information on the psychological and physical effects experienced by HCWs. The study adhered to relevant EQUATOR guidelines for reporting. The study collected online data from 114 HCWs working in COVID-19 settings while using PPE. Among the respondents, 33% reported anxiety, 23.1% experienced apprehension after donning PPE, and 68.1% felt discomfort. Additionally, 46.2% required up to 12 hours for psychological restoration after a COVID-19 duty shift, 17.6% were worried about the risk of infection, and 28.6% were extremely worried about infecting family members while on duty. The findings highlight significant discomfort, anxiety, and apprehension among HCWs due to prolonged PPE use, reflecting the immense psychological burden of working in high-risk environments during the pandemic. These results emphasize the need for comprehensive support systems and interventions to address the multifaceted needs of HCWs, including psychological support, adequate breaks, and measures to mitigate physical discomfort.","PeriodicalId":8962,"journal":{"name":"Bioinformation","volume":"20 8","pages":"822-828"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11471408/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142457134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many agents are tried to improve periodontal health. Hence this research was done to estimate the effectiveness of Tetracycline fibers; Probiotics and Chlorhexidine gel as a conjunction to scaling and root planning (SRP) in the treatment of chronic periodontitis. In all, 60 patients between the ages of 25 and 35 who had generalized chronic periodontitis and had a probing pocket depth (PPD) of at least 5 mm were enrolled for this study. Four groups of 15 patients each were created from the patients: Group 1: Tetracycline fibres after SRP, Group 2: Chlorhexidine gel, Group 3: Probiotic mouthwash and Group 4: Rinse with regular saline. At baseline, oral prophylaxis was administered to all groups. Gingival index (GI), Plaque index (PI), and probing depth (PD), among other clinical indicators, were evaluated at baseline, two weeks, and four weeks, respectively. All clinical findings, along withPlaque index (PI), Gingival index (GI), and Probing depth at various time intervals, decreased statistically significantly. Tetracycline fibres, Chlorhexidine gel, and probiotic mouthwash are all similarly effective for treating chronic periodontitis, but they are all more effective than SRP alone, according to an intergroup comparison. When it comes to SRP, local medication delivery methods are beneficial in treating periodontitis.","PeriodicalId":8962,"journal":{"name":"Bioinformation","volume":"20 8","pages":"933-937"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11471413/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142457133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore this study was done to examine the surface morphology and chemical composition of commercially available titanium dental implants.

The chemical composition was determined by the Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) method and the surface morphology was performed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) method. The results for chemical composition of titanium implants using EDX method revealed that titanium (Ti) constitutes the major surface components on the plain and top land area of the single piece compressive implants which is 89.71 weight% and 71.55 weight % respectively. Iron (Fe)-66.60 weight % is considered as major element along with chromium (Cr)-18.34 weight %on the plain area of spiral implants and O (19.90 weight %) and Al (12.43 weight %) on the top land area of spiral implants. The surface morphology and impact of the manufacturing process on the implant surface using SEM method revealed that the similar surface irregularities with diameter ranging from 10 µm to 20 µm on the side view of the top land area and diameter of 10 µm on the side view of plain area for both the samples.

Numerous tools have been created to assess implant-bone stability as a sign of a well-treated implant. Thus, the objective of this cross-sectional study was to estimate the validity of the Osstell ISQ system for assessing implant stability. Osstell ISQ was used to complete implant stability registers for 60 implants across 18 patients. Two distinct SmartPegs (types I and II) were used to complete six measurements on each implant, or three measurements in a row with each transducer. In the 1st, 2nd, and 3rdmeasurements with SmartPegs I and II, the average ISQ was 71.36, 71.31, and 71.65, and 71.02, 71.58, and 71.76, respectively. For SmartPegs I and II, equivalent values or variations below three ISQ points were found in 46.3% and 58.6% of the cases, respectively. Both SmartPegs had an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.96, and they also had repeatability and reproducibility of 0.96. An intra-class correlation coefficient analysis reveals nearly excellent repeatability and reproducibility for the RFA system Osstell ISQ. Measurements of Osstell ISQ have excellent repeatability.","PeriodicalId":8962,"journal":{"name":"Bioinformation","volume":"20 8","pages":"921-925"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11471406/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142457222","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
