    Abstract Unwanted facial hair growth is a common esthetic problem. Laser hair removal has emerged as a leading treatment option for long-term depilation. The theory of selective photothermolysis has revolutionized laser hair removal in that it is effective and safe, when operated by sufficiently trained and experienced professionals. Long-pulsed ruby (694 nm), long-pulsed alexandrite (755 nm), diode (800-980 nm), and long-pulsed Nd: YAG (1064) are commercially available laser devices for hair removal most widely studied. The authors wish to share the efficacy and safety of intense pulse light therapy for permanent facial hair reduction in Indian population.

    Abstract Examining high frequency national-level panel data from Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) on paid work (employment) and unpaid work (time spent on domestic work), this paper examines the effects of the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic on the gender gaps in paid and unpaid work until December 2020, using difference-in-differences (D-I-D) for estimating the before (the pandemic) and after (the pandemic set in) effects, and event study estimates around the strict national lockdown in April 2020. The DID estimates reveal a lowering of the gender gap in employment probabilities which occurs due to the lower probability of male employment, rather than an increase in female employment. The first month of the national lockdown, April 2020, saw a large contraction in employment for both men and women, where more men lost jobs in absolute terms. Between April and August 2020 male employment recovered steadily as the economy unlocked. The event study estimates show that in August 2020, for women, the likelihood of being employed was 9% points lower than that for men, compared to April 2019, conditional on previous employment. However, by December 2020, gender gaps in employment were at the December 2019 levels. The burden of domestic chores worsened for women under the pandemic. Men spent more time on housework in April 2020 relative to December 2019, but by December 2020, the average male hours had declined to below the pre-pandemic levels, whereas women's average hours increased sharply. Time spent with friends fell sharply between December 2019 and April 2020, with a larger decline in the case of women. The hours spent with friends recovered in August 2020, to again decline by December 2020 to roughly one-third of the pre-pandemic levels. The paper adopts an intersectional lens to examine how these trends vary by social group identity.

    Abstract Paediatric functional bladder disorders especially those causing daytime symptoms are a common cause of significant psychosocial and/or physical morbidity and impaired quality of life. Despite the availability of many therapeutic modalities, a significant number of children appear to be refractory to treatment and continue to have symptoms. In this review, we aim to evaluate the current evidence in the use of existing and novel therapeutic options for the management of daytime lower urinary tract disorders in children. We also aim to highlight the controversies around the terminology and diagnosis of paediatric lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) and specific conditions. The article will then provide a reasonable critique of the existing and emerging treatment modalities in functional daytime LUTD in children including their mode of action, efficacy, indications, and recent advances. These include standard urotherapy, specific urotherapy comprised of biofeedback, alarm therapy and electrical neural stimulation and pharmacotherapy involving selective and non-selective anticholinergics, ß

    Abstract Oral cancer is a significant global health concern, with a high mortality rate mainly due to late-stage diagnosis. Early detection plays a critical role in improving patient outcomes, highlighting the need for non-invasive and accessible screening methods. Salivary biomarkers have emerged as a promising avenue for oral cancer detection, leveraging advancements in human DNA and RNA analysis. Several DNA-based biomarkers, such as genetic mutations, chromosomal aberrations, and epigenetic alterations, have shown promise in detecting oral cancer at various stages. Likewise, RNA-based biomarkers, including microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs, and messenger RNAs, have demonstrated potential for diagnosing oral cancer and predicting treatment outcomes. The integration of high-throughput sequencing technologies, such as next-generation sequencing and transcriptomic profiling, has enabled the identification of novel biomarkers and provided deeper insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying oral cancer development and progression. Despite the promising results, challenges remain in standardizing sample collection, establishing robust biomarker panels, and validating their clinical utility. Nevertheless, salivary biomarkers hold great promise as a non-invasive, cost-effective, and accessible approach for oral cancer detection, ultimately leading to improved patient outcomes through early diagnosis and intervention. The analysis of genetic material obtained from saliva offers several advantages, including ease of collection, non-invasiveness, and the potential for repeated sampling. Furthermore, saliva reflects the physiological and pathological status of the oral cavity, making it an ideal source for biomarker discovery and validation. This article presents a comprehensive review of the current research on salivary biomarkers for oral cancer detection, focusing on insights gained from human DNA and RNA analysis.

    Abstract India imposed one of the strictest lockdowns in the world to contain the spread of COVID-19 pandemic. According to the Stringency Index developed by the Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxford, by the 25th of March, 2020, India had already reached the highest possible level of stringency (index value = 100). This involved a near-complete shutdown of all economic activity. What were the labour market implications of this shutdown? The first-order effects are evident in the massive increase in total unemployment. However, is the pandemic and its aftermath a great leveller? Are the labour implications of the lockdown gender neutral? How did the lockdown affect domestic time allocation, in particular time spent on domestic work and with friends? Were these changes gender neutral, given that the lockdown was gender blind?

    Abstract Bladder metastasis from cutaneous melanoma is a rare pathology. A 79-year-old woman presented to the haematuria clinic on account of painless visible haematuria. Ten years prior to this index presentation, she was diagnosed with melanoma on her right thigh following a total excision of the skin lesion. Cystoscopy showed a pigmented bladder tumour, and the histology report following a transurethral resection was consistent with metastatic melanoma, and further imaging revealed metastasis to the lungs, adrenals, and lymph nodes.
