    Abstract Introduction: The morphology of the epithelium of the oral lips comprised keratinized external epithelium (anteriorly) and nonkeratinized or sometimes parakeratinized mucous membrane epithelium (posteriorly). Knowledge of morphometry of the lip lining helps in deciding the best site for choosing graft for its better uptake during several dermal grafting procedures following trauma or tumor excision following craniofacial cancers or cosmetic procedures.
    Materials and methods: Ten human male cadavers were procured at the Department of Anatomy King George's Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. The rectangle-shaped skin specimen through the right commissure of the lip which included the skin, mucocutaneous junction, and mucosa was stained with hematoxylin and eosin stain. A total of 30 slides were prepared. Thus, the readings were obtained for three regions, respectively, with the help of CAT-CAM E-series HD cameras which were installed in a light microscope.
    Results: Thickness of skin (epidermis + dermis) of the lip ranged from 756 μm to 1068 μm among males. Epidermal thickness increases on moving from the cutaneous region to the mucosa region of the lip. The lowest contribution of the stratum corneum in thickness of the epidermis was observed in the vermillion region, while the highest contribution was observed in the skin region. It was found to be absent in the mucosa region of the lip. Rete pegs at the dermoepidermal junction was found to be maximum in the vermillion region and minimum in the skin region. Its depth increased as we move from the skin to the mucosa region of the lip. Depth of the dermis was found to be maximum in the skin region, while minimum in the vermillion region. It ranged between 291 μm and 693 μm.
    Conclusion: Care should be taken while using dermal fillers in lip augmentation surgeries, especially in the vermillion region due to its close proximity to musculature in the core of the lip.

    Abstract Background: Among the COVID crisis, medical education is forced to shift to the virtual mode, for which neither the students nor the teachers are prepared. Currently, we replaced traditional classroom teaching (CT) by live online classes (LOC), power-point presentations with voiceovers (UPV), or only power point presentations (UP). Uncertainty of this situation necessitates analysis of the experiences of its stakeholders to improve the implemented online teaching methodologies in coming time. The present study aims to analyze and compare the effectiveness of online teaching methodologies among themselves and against traditional CT.
    Materials and methods: A cross-sectional, survey based, observational study was conducted on 250 MBBS first year students after 1 month of implementation of online teaching program. Responses were collected on Likert scaling from 1 to 5, and data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis H-test, ANOVA with multiple comparisons
    Results: The students perceived that the understanding, convenience for attending class, notes-taking, visibility, audibility, raising queries and overall experience was best in traditional setup. The understanding of the topic and overall experience of the students was not affected by gender. Internet connectivity problem popped up as the major issue that adversely affected the online teaching experience.
    Conclusions: Majority of students perceived that the traditional CT is best, but at the same time, they felt that a combination of live online classes and power point presentations with voice over can replace the traditional online classes.

    Abstract Objective: A two-way relationship between diabetes and periodontal disease has been suggested; whereas obesity and impaired lipid profile are risk factors for type-2 diabetes mellitus. This study examined the relationship between lipid profile, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) with periodontal health/disease dependent variables in healthy, diabetic and impaired glucose tolerance subjects.
    Materials and methods: 120 patients were selected for the study and were determined to be periodontally healthy or diseased. All these patients underwent biochemical tests for OGTT and Lipid profile analysis and data was compared using Z-test.
    Results: The OGTT results deteriorated with deteriorating periodontal condition. A similar correlation was also observed between worsening lipid profile test values, OGTT score, and periodontal condition.
    Conclusion: This study indicates that hyperlipidemia may be one of the factors associated with periodontitis and that periodontitis may itself lead to abnormal serum lipid levels. Therefore, in addition to effects on diabetes, periodontitis may contribute to elevated serum lipid levels and therefore potentially to systemic disease arising from chronic hyperlipidemia.

    Abstract Introduction: The superficial veins, especially the external jugular vein (EJV), are increasingly being utilized for cannulation to conduct diagnostic procedures or intravenous therapies. EJV is also used in microsurgical procedures,used as a recipient for the free flaps.
    Materials and methods: During routine dissection a variation was observed in the formation of EJV unilaterally on the left side.
    Result: In the anterior triangle of the neck submandibular vein joined with the anterior jugular vein to form a large venous trunk (V1). Facial vein joined this venous trunk (V1) to form another common channel (V2). The retromandibular vein divided into unusually long anterior and posterior divisions. Anterior division did not join the facial vein but drained into the common channel V2.The posterior division of retromandibular vein also drained into V2 which further continued as EJV and drained into the subclavian vein.
    Conclusion: The knowledge of variations in the patterns of superficial veins is important for the surgeons to avoid any intraoperative error which might lead to unnecessary bleeding.

    Abstract Purpose: Understanding the topographic anatomy of the membranous layer of superficial fascia of anterior abdominal wall may help in explaining the body contour deformities and provide the anatomic basis for surgical corrections. Existing controversies in the presence and extent of membranous layer of the superficial fascia of anterior abdominal wall among anatomists and misinterpretation of its anatomical description by clinicians provoked us to re-evaluate the superficial fascia of anterior abdominal wall.
    Method: Fifty CT scans of abdominal region of either sex were studied to see the vertical and horizontal extent of membranous layer.
    Results: The membranous layer was clearly seen in whole of the anterior abdominal wall except for few cases where either it was not clear superiorly in zone 1 (16%) or inferiorly in zone 3 (6%). On combining the horizontal and vertical extent of membranous layer in each and every individual, altogether eight types of patterns were obtained. Out of these patterns, four were present in females and all the eight types in males.
    Conclusion: The membranous layer is present in whole of the anterior abdominal wall and it divides the superficial fascia into three layers: superficial fatty layer, intermediate membranous layer, and deep fatty layer. If membranous layer is not clear in CT scan the reason could be the absence of deposition of fat in deep compartment.

    Abstract Activities of some key enzymes of carbon metabolism sucrose synthase, acid and alkaline invertase, phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase, malic enzyme and isocitrate dehydrogenase were investigated in relation to the carbohydrate status in lentil pods. Sucrose remained the dominant soluble sugar in the pod wall and seed, with hexoses (glucose and fructose) present at significantly lower levels. Sucrose synthase is the predominant sucrolytic enzyme in the developing seeds of lentil (Lens culinaris L.). Acid invertase was associated with pod elongation and showed little activity in seeds. Sucrose breakdown was dominated by alkaline invertase during the development of podwall, while both the sucrose synthase and alkaline invertase were active in the branch of inflorescence. A substantial increase of sucrolytic enzymes was observed at the time of maximum seed filling stage (10–20 DAF) in lentil seed. The pattern of activity of sucrose synthase highly paralleled the phase of rapid seed filling and therefore, can be correlated with seed sink strength. It seems likely that the fruiting structures of lentil utilize phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase for recapturing respired carbon dioxide. Higher activities of isocitrate dehydrogenase and malic enzyme in the seed at the time of rapid seed filling could be effectively linked to the deposition of protein reserves.

    Abstract Background and aim: Ossified pterygospinous ligament is a major cause of the entrapment of the lingual nerve or a branch of the mandibular nerve and may cause mandibular neuralgia. It can also constitute an obstacle for the mandibular nerve block which is a preferred method for pain relief especially for the fractures of mandible or cancer patients. Systematic study of these bars in North Indian population is lacking. Therefore this study was carried out to see the incidence of ossified pterygospinous bars in North Indian population.
    Materials and methods: The present study was an attempt to find out the occurrence of ossified pterygospinous ligament (Civinini's bar) in 116 dried skulls of unknown sex were taken and the presence of ossified pterygospinous bar was noted.
    Results: It was observed that the ossified pterygospinous bars which is present between pterygospinous process of lateral pterygoid plate and spine of sphenoid also called as Civinini's bar can be divided into five types (Types I, II, III, IV, V). This bar encloses a foramen called as Civinini's foramen. A total incidence of 18.10% of various types of pterygospinous bars was observed, out of which 1.72% were Type I, 8.62%Type II, 3.45%Type III, 0% Type IV and 4.31 % were of Type V variety.
    Conclusion: Total prevalence of Civinini bar is 18.10% in North Indian population.The clinicians working on this area should be aware of this variation as its prevalence is quite high.
