Arteriovenous (AV) fistula puncture is a routine yet painful procedure, highlighting the need for effective pain management strategies.Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a Nurse-Led Dual Intervention, combining cryotherapy and virtual reality, in reducing pain and discomfort during AV fistula puncture among hemodialysis patients.Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 60 hemodialysis patients assigned to either an experimental or control group. Pain and discomfort were assessed using McGill's Pain Rating Scale and Borg's Perceived Discomfort Rating Scale. The intervention involved the simultaneous application of cryotherapy and virtual reality distraction during AV fistula puncture, while the control group received standard care.Results: Post-intervention analysis demonstrated a 43.62% reduction in symptom scores in the experimental group compared to a 2.80% reduction in the control group. Significant decreases in pain intensity and discomfort scores were observed in the experimental group. Additionally, statistical analysis revealed meaningful associations between socio-demographic variables and pain management outcomes.Conclusion: The findings suggest that integrating non-pharmacological interventions, such as cryotherapy and virtual reality, can significantly improve patient comfort and quality of life during hemodialysis. Future research should explore the broader clinical applications of this dual intervention for pain management in various healthcare settings.","PeriodicalId":94339,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences","volume":"17 Suppl 1","pages":"S691-S693"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12156750/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144287741","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}

Despite a wide array of pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatments, many patients experience persistent pain, reduced quality of life, and limited functional capacity. The superior hypogastric plexus block (SHPB) has emerged as a promising interventional technique for the management of CPP, particularly in cases with predominant visceral pain components. This comprehensive review aims to evaluate the adjunctive efficacy of SHPB in treating CPP, exploring its anatomical basis, mechanisms of action, and clinical outcomes. SHPB targets the superior hypogastric plexus, a crucial relay center for transmitting nociceptive signals from the pelvic organs. By interrupting these pathways, SHPB can relieve pain and improve associated symptoms such as dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and dysuria. This review systematically analyzes the existing literature on SHPB, comparing its effectiveness with other interventional techniques and its role as an adjunct to standard therapies. Evidence suggests that SHPB can significantly reduce pain scores and improve the quality of life in selected patients with a relatively low risk of complications.","PeriodicalId":94339,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences","volume":"17 Suppl 1","pages":"S117-S120"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12156481/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144287770","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}

This study evaluated drying method effects on three Type IV dental stones: Elite Rock (ZERMACK), Fuji Rock (GC), and Kal Rock (KALROCK). One hundred twenty samples of ZERMACK, GC, and KALROCK were prepared using manufacturer-recommended water/powder ratios. Samples were divided into four subgroups based on drying method: 1-hour air drying, 24-hour air drying, 1-hour air drying followed by 10 min of microwave drying at low power, and 24-hour air drying followed by die hardener application. Knoop hardness testing was conducted according to ADA specification #25. One-way ANOVA and pairwise comparisons were used for statistical analysis. GC showed the highest mean hardness (84.58), followed by ZERMACK (74.82), and KALROCK (67.07). Significant differences existed (F [2, 27] =190.463, P < .001). GC had significantly higher hardness than KALROCK (17.52 difference) and ZERMACK (9.76 difference) after 24 hours. GC exhibited superior surface hardness.

Token economy therapy, which uses positive reinforcement strategies, may offer a promising behavioural intervention in such settings. This pilot study evaluates the effectiveness of token economy therapy in reducing aggression among orphanage children.Methods: A quasi-experimental design was adopted involving 50 children aged 6-12 years from two orphanages in Pune, India. Stratified random sampling ensured balanced representation by age and gender. The intervention consisted of 20 biweekly token economy sessions over 10 weeks, wherein desirable behaviours were rewarded with tokens exchangeable for preferred items. Behavioural assessments were conducted pre- and post-intervention using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for statistical analysis.Results: Pre-intervention, 76% of children had moderate behavioural difficulties and 24% had severe difficulties. Post-intervention, 36% exhibited normal behaviour and 64% showed only mild difficulties. Mean behavioural scores significantly decreased from 34.42 (±2.64) to 16.34 (±1.72) (Wilcoxon Z = 6.18, P < 0.0001). Improvements were consistent across all academic performance categories.Conclusion: Token economy therapy proved effective in significantly reducing aggressive behaviours among orphanage children. Its structured, reward-based approach may offer a scalable and cost-effective behavioural intervention in institutional care settings. Further studies are warranted to confirm long-term benefits across broader populations.","PeriodicalId":94339,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences","volume":"17 Suppl 1","pages":"S323-S325"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12156682/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144287842","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}
