    Abstract Abstract: Pleomorphic adenoma usually presents as a painless growing mass in locations of the salivary glands and is notorious for local recurrence if previous surgical resection is incomplete. Schwannoma is a benign peripheral nerve tumor with microscopic features of sheets of spindle-shaped cells with nuclear palisading. However, when a pathologist encounters a salivary gland tumor with microscopic morphological features of biphasic components with areas of schwannoma-like morphology, it is crucial to make a prudent diagnosis by differentiating Schwannoma-like pleomorphic adenoma and its differential diagnosis as they have remarkably different outcome in patients. We herein present a case of Schwannoma-like pleomorphic adenoma and discuss its approach to diagnosis and literature search.

    Abstract Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured educational module on substance abuse prevention program among adolescents in enhancing their knowledge against substance abuse.
    Methods: A quasi-experimental design was employed involving 120 students (mean age: 14.3±1.03 years, 59.2% boys) from two English medium schools. Participants were exposed to a structured module on substance abuse over a month. The study assessed changes in knowledge through pretest and post-test evaluations. Statistical analyses examined improvements in scores and the relationship between class of study and post-test knowledge scores.
    Results: The intervention significantly improved students' knowledge about substance abuse (p<0.001) across all measured domains, genders, and classes, with the exception of the 7th class. A positive correlation was found between the class of study and post-test scores (Rs=0.288, p<0.001), indicating that higher classes were associated with greater improvements in knowledge. These findings suggest that the training effectively increased awareness and understanding of substance abuse among participants.
    Conclusions: The substance abuse prevention program successfully enhanced adolescents' knowledge and equipped them with resilience and coping strategies, thus reducing their vulnerability to peer pressure and substance abuse. Despite the lack of significant improvement in the 7th class, the overall positive outcomes underscore the importance of implementing such educational interventions to foster healthy development and well-being among students. Further research is encouraged to explore the specific barriers to effectiveness in younger classes and to refine program content accordingly.

    Abstract Meningioma is the most common central nervous system (CNS) tumor. In recent decades, several efforts have been made to eradicate this disease. Surgery and radiotherapy remain the standard treatment options for these tumors. Drug therapy comes to play its role when both surgery and radiotherapy fail to treat the tumor. This mostly happens when the tumors are close to vital brain structures and are nonbenign. Although a wide variety of chemotherapeutic drugs and molecular targeted drugs such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors, alkylating agents, endocrine drugs, interferon, and targeted molecular pathway inhibitors have been studied, the roles of numerous drugs remain unexplored. Recent interest is growing toward studying and engineering exosomes for the treatment of different types of cancer including meningioma. The latest studies have shown the involvement of exosomes in the theragnostic of various cancers such as the lung and pancreas in the form of biomarkers, drug delivery vehicles, and vaccines. Proper attention to this new emerging technology can be a boon in finding the consistent treatment of meningioma.

    Abstract Millions of people have died as a result of SARS-CoV-2, which was first discovered in China and has since spread globally. Patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection may show a range of symptoms, including fever, coughing, and shortness of breath, or they may show no symptoms at all. To treat COVID-19 symptoms and avoid serious infections, many medications and vaccinations have been employed. However, to entirely eradicate COVID-19 from the world, next-generation vaccine research is required because of the devastating consequences it is having for humanity and every nation's economy. Scientists are working hard to eradicate this dangerous virus across the world. SARS-CoV-2 has also undergone significant mutation, leading to distinct viral types such as the alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and omicron variants. This has sparked discussion about the effectiveness of current vaccines for the newly formed variants. A proper comparison of these vaccinations is required to compare their efficacy as the number of people immunized against SARS-CoV-2 globally increases. Population-level statistics evaluating the capacity of these vaccines to reduce infection are therefore being developed. In this paper, we analyze the many vaccines on the market in terms of their production process, price, dosage needed, and efficacy. This article also discusses the challenges of achieving herd immunity, the likelihood of reinfection, and the importance of convalescent plasma therapy in reducing infection.

    Abstract Background When metals used in orthodontic materials are exposed to the oral environment, teeth, and gingivae over an extended period of time, they may gradually deteriorate. As a result, the patient is exposed to higher concentrations of metals and metal ions than what they would be exposed to through food and other sources. The goal of the current in vitro experiment was to evaluate and contrast the metal ion release from orthodontic archwires made of titanium-molybdenum alloy (TMA) and nickel-titanium (NiTi). Methods For 90 days, 20 orthodontic archwires in each group were immersed in 50 milliliters of simulated saliva using different containers. Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) (Shimadzu Corporation, Kyoto, Japan) was used to assess and compare metal ion emission. The unit of measurement is parts per million (PPM). Results The findings indicated that the discharge of nickel metal from the NiTi archwire (Group A) was much higher than that from the TMA archwire (Group B), with a statistical significance level of p < 0.001. It was discovered that Group B's release of titanium was statistically significantly (p < 0.05) higher than Group A's titanium release, which did not include the release of any other metals. Conclusion The study findings indicated that the amounts of metal ions released from the orthodontic archwires made of titanium molybdenum and nickel-titanium alloy were within safety limits.

    Abstract Rajasthan generates 1055 million litres per day as wastewater, out of which 27 million litres is treated and nearly 1028 million litres untreated wastewater is discharged in various water resources. The present study is based on the impact of Kota stone or limestone mining on water resources. Among those villages and census towns, experiencing mining activity, a total of 26 surface water and groundwater samples were tested and analysed. Mining waste often creates eutrophication, toxification, temporary hardness and sometimes permanent hardness. The mining belt was 17.54 km2 in the year 2000 which further increased to 24.25 km2 in the year 2018. The parameters analysed were pH, EC, TDS, alkalinity, total hardness, calcium and magnesium hardness, DO, COD, chloride, sodium and potassium. The predictive mapping for the mining belt was executed in Arc GIS software using Inverse Distance Weightage (IDW) method. The mean of pH was 9.13, TDS 457.12 mg/L, total hardness 593.52 mg/L, calcium hardness is 205.54 mg/L, magnesium hardness 387.53 mg/L, COD 442.2 mg/L, Na+ 139.9 mg/L, K+ 19.40 mg/L, Cl- 318.29, DO 3.04mg/L and alkalinity 14.02 mg/L.
