    Abstract The high selectivity in the hydrogenation reactions of α, β-unsaturated aldehydes is always a demanding task. Precious Pt-based catalysts play a pivotal role in selective catalytic hydrogenation of α, β-unsaturated aldehydes, but controlling the selectivity is still a great challenge. Herein, the Pt nanoparticles were encaged within the mesopores of amines (-NH

    Abstract Objective: This study was conducted with the aim to establish standard technique of closed reduction (CR) and compare functional outcomes in patients of moderately displaced unilateral extracapsular condylar fractures.
    Material and methods: This study is a retrospective randomized controlled trial, conducted at a tertiary care hospital setting from August, 2013 to November, 2018. Patients of unilateral extracapsular condylar fractures with ramus shortening < 7mm and deviation < 35° were divided in two groups by drawing lots and were treated by dynamic elastic therapy and maxillomandibular fixation (MMF). Mean and standard deviation were calculated for quantitative variables, and one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Pearson's Chi-square test were used to determine significance of outcomes between two modalities of CR. P value < 0.05 was taken as significant.
    Results: The numbers of patients treated by dynamic elastic therapy and MMF were 76 (38 in each group). Out of which 48 (63.15%) were male and 28 (36.84%) were female. The ratio of male to female was 1.7:1. The mean ± standard deviation (SD) of age was 32 ± 9.57 years. In patients treated by dynamic elastic therapy, the mean ± SD (at 6-month follow-up) of loss of ramus height (LRH), maximum incisal opening (MIO) and opening deviation were 4.6mm ± 1.08mm, 40.4mm ± 1.57mm and 1.1mm ± 0.87mm respectively. Whereas, LRH, MIO and opening deviation were 4.6mm ± 0.85mm, 40.4mm ± 2.37mm and 0.8mm ± 0.63mm respectively by MMF therapy. One-way ANOVA was statistically insignificant (P value > 0.05) for above mentioned outcomes. Pre-traumatic occlusion was achieved in 89.47% of patients by MMF and in 86.84% patients by dynamic elastic therapy. Pearson's Chi-square test was statistically insignificant (p value < 0.05) for occlusion.
    Conclusion: Parallel results were obtained for both modalities; thus, the technique as dynamic elastic therapy, which promotes early mobilization and functional rehabilitation, can be favored as standard technique of closed reduction for moderately displaced extracapsular condylar fractures. This technique eases patients' stress associated with MMF and prevents ankylosis.

    Abstract Healthcare systems around the globe have been revolutionised in the last few decades, resulting in a greater need and demand for surgical education outside the operation theatres. Surgical education through simulations started around 2,500 years ago when they were first used in the planning of unique and innovative surgeries while ensuring the safety of the subjects. Currently, simulations include animal models, cadaveric models, benchtop models and complex robotic models. In a programme involving surgical simulators, four requirements are followed to optimise their effectiveness, including mandatory involvement, skill-based instruction, standardised training plan, and overtraining. We can make a reasonable estimation that the future is technology-based. The speed with which we anticipate the fusion of these virtual reality and robotics-based simulation technology with medical educations and practices largely depends on the affordability and economics of these tools. The current narrative review was planned to highlight the historical aspects of simulations, their role in surgical education, and their importance in the future as an essential adjunct to surgical education.

    Abstract Overuse of doxycycline (DOXY) can cause serious problems to human health, environment and food quality. So, it is essential to develop a new sensing methodology that is both sensitive and selective for the quantitative detection of DOXY. In our current research, we synthesized a simple fluorescent probe 4,4'-bis(benzyloxy)-1,1'-biphenyl (BBP) for the highly selective detection of doxycycline by through fluorescence spectroscopy. The probe BBP displayed ultra-sensitivity towards doxycycline due to Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET). Fluorescence spectroscopy, density functional theory (DFT),

    Abstract The placement of a left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) device can be a technically challenging transcatheter-based procedure. Key challenges include accurate pre-procedural device sizing and proper device positioning at the LAA ostium to ensure sufficient device anchoring and avoid peri-device leaks. To address these challenges, 3D printing (3DP) of LAA models has recently emerged in the literature, first being described in 2015. We present a review of the benefits and drawbacks of employing this technology for LAAO procedures. Pre-procedurally the use of 3DP can consistently and accurately determine LAAO device size over standard of care approaches. Intra-procedurally 3DP's impact entailed a statistically significant decrease in the number of devices used per procedure, as well as in the fluoroscopic time and dose. Post-procedurally, there is some evidence that 3DP could reduce the rate of peri-device leaks, with limited data on its effect on complication rates. Based on existing evidence, we recommend the focused application of 3DP to cases of complex LAA anatomy and for the training of proceduralists. Lastly, we address the emergence of next generation LAAO devices and AR/VR systems that could limit even this narrow window of clinical benefit afforded by 3DP.

    Abstract This study examined students’ perceptions of the factors barring their English-speaking skills. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire from the students of the English and Education departments studying in different semesters at the University of Malakand Pakistan. Data were analyzed using various statistical tools such as frequency distribution, mean, standard deviation, and independent samples t-test. The results showed a positive attitude of students (both male and female) toward developing English-speaking skills as the grand mean score was 3.54, higher than the mid-point of 3.0 on the five-point Likert scale. Further, the results showed no significant difference in students’ perceptions of studying in the different departments (p=0.066>0.05) and semesters (p=0.083>0.05) towards English-speaking skills. However, factors impeding the English-speaking skill of the students identified include students’ background-related factors (grand mean score 2.36<3.0), the current English communication environment (p=0.005<0.05), teaching methodology (p=0.009<0.05), and the examination system (p=0.048<0.05). This study concludes that the English-speaking skills of the students could be improved by focusing on the mentioned impeding factors.
