    Abstract The objective of this systematic review is to determine the association between interstitial lung diseases and chronic periodontitis from various aspects such as microbial, biomarker, genetic, and environmental levels. A systematic review was carried out from 2000 to 2021 following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) recommendations including studies searched in PubMed-Medline, Google Scholar, and Cochrane databases. A total of more than 100 articles were obtained in the initial screening process. Out of these 42 studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in the study. According to the extracted data, there is mounting evidence suggesting the association between these two diseases. Our systematic review raises the prospect of a connection between chronic periodontitis and interstitial lung diseases, within the limitations of the studies we included.

    Abstract Highly significant effects of environments (E), GxE interaction and genotypes (G) had expressed by AMMI analysis for problem soils under coordinated barley improvement program of the country. Interaction effects GxE accounted for 52.4% & 30.5% and environment effects explained 19.4% & 50.3% during cropping seasons of 2018-19 and 2019-20 respectively. Stability measure WAASB based on all significant interaction principal components ranked suitability of UPB1077, BHS400, HBL851 genotypes. Superiority index while weighting 0.65 and 0.35 for mean yield & stability ranked VLB162, BHS400, HBL113 as of stable performance with high yield barley genotypes. ASTAB measure achieved the desirable lower values for BHS474, HBL113, VLB 162. Composite measure MASV1 found BHS474, HBL113, VLB162 and as per MASV ranks BHS474, HBL113, HBL863 genotypes would be of choice for these locations of the zone. Biplot graphical analysis as per 66.3% of variation of the stability measures exhibited MASV1 clubbed with ASTAB, EV, SIPC, Za, W3, WAASB and MASV measures. Yield based measures clubbed with corresponding SI measures. For the second-year lower value of WAASB measure had observed for BHS481, BHS400, BHS352 whereas large value by HBL867. Ranking of genotypes as per Superiority index found BHS482, HBL113, VLB168 as of stable performance with high yield. Barley genotypes HBL113, VLB168, VLB166 were selected as per values of ASTAB measure accounted the AMMI analysis with BLUP of genotypes yield values. Composite measure MASV1 selected HBL113, VLB168, HBL867 while HBL113, VLB168, HBL867 identified by MASV as genotypes of choice for these locations of the zone. 73.1% of variation of the stability measures in biplot analysis observed MASV1 clubbed with ASTAB, EV, SIPC, Za, W3, WAASB and MASV measures. Average yield measures clubbed with corresponding SI measures.

    Abstract Periodontal disease is associated with many systemic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, stroke, and pulmonary diseases. Interestingly, recent literature suggests that periodontal disease might be a risk factor for various cancers such as lung, colon, oesophageal, head, and neck cancers. However, the precise mechanistic link is lacking. Hence, in this meta-analysis, we aimed to investigate the correlation between periodontal disease and lung cancer in periodontally diseased patients. Data were searched for relevant studies from 2010 to 2022. We correlated periodontal disease and lung cancer based on adjusted ORs/HRs and associated CIs. I2 statistic was used to assess statistical heterogeneity. Publication bias was analyzed by visually inspecting the symmetry of the funnel plot and Egger's test. The study is registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO; registration no: CRD42023390819). A total of 194,850 participants from observational studies (two case-control studies and five cohort studies) were incorporated for the current analysis. The meta-analysis of included studies showed an overall effect size (risk ratio) of the periodontal disease group with respect to the non-periodontal disease group for lung neoplasm to be 1.41 (95% CI: 1.32-1.52). The value was more than 1, indicating that the periodontal disease group had a relatively higher lung cancer prevalence than the non-periodontal disease group. Further, the overall risk ratio was found to be statistically significant (p<0.00001). Moreover, the funnel plot suggested some degree of publication bias. Evidence in our study implicated that there is an increased risk of occurrence of lung cancer in chronic periodontitis patients.

    Abstract René-Théophile-Hyacinthe Laennec in his book "Treatise of the Diseases of the Chest" discussed the emphysema in 1821. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been around for at least 202 years, from 1821 to 2023 (but the disease itself is much older than that). It is believed that William Briscoe first used the term COPD in June 1965, at the 9th Aspen Emphysema Conference. COPD was first defined by the CIBA guest symposium in 1959 and the American Thoracic Society Committee on Diagnostic Standards in 1962; recent definition of COPD was released by the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) report 2023. In 1990, it was sixth leading cause of death and in 2020 COPD becomes third leading cause of death. GOLD update 2023 also proposed taxonomy (etiotypes), classification of COPD based on risk factors, and ABE assessment tool for COPD. Now concept of early-COPD, pre-COPD, and, mild-COPD are also emerging, which are helpful in better understanding of COPD. Here, we have discussed historical landmarks, definition, burden, taxonomy, classification, different concept of disease, ABE assessment tool, personalized medicine, and brief description of GOLD and World COPD Day from past to present.

    Abstract Basic vaccination is important to protect children from infectious diseases and illnesses. Adequate levels of vaccination coverage reduce the morbidity and mortality burden among children and promote their physical and mental development. This study aimed to assess the association between basic childhood vaccination and the cognitive and learning ability of school children in India. Nationally representative follow-up data on 6183 children from the Indian Human Development Surveys conducted in 2004-05 and 2011-12 (IHDS I & II) were analysed. Children aged 8-10 years who had received all basic vaccines by the age 12 months performed better in a maths test than partially vaccinated or unvaccinated children (OR: 1.87, 95% CI: 1.48, 2.35). Similarly, fully vaccinated children performed better in writing tasks than partially vaccinated or unvaccinated children (OR: 1.77, 95% CI: 1.44, 2.18). Likewise, fully vaccinated children had better reading skills than fully unvaccinated children (OR: 1.60, 95% CI: 1.23, 2.09). The results suggest that enhancing child vaccination coverage can have significant benefits beyond health and can potentially improve the long-term educational outcomes of children.

    Abstract Background: In the classification of bruxism patients based on electroencephalogram (EEG), feature extraction is essential. The method of using multi-channel EEG fusing electrocardiogram (ECG) and Electromyography (EMG) signal features has been proved to have good performance in bruxism classification, but the classification performance based on single channel EEG signal is still understudied. We investigate the efficacy of single EEG channel in bruxism classification.
    Methods: We have extracted time-domain, frequency-domain, and nonlinear features from single EEG channel to classify bruxism. Five common bipolar EEG recordings from 2 bruxism patients and 4 healthy controls during REM sleep were analyzed. The time domain (mean, standard deviation, root mean squared value), frequency domain (absolute, relative and ratios power spectral density (PSD)), and non-linear features (sample entropy) of different EEG frequency bands were analyzed from five EEG channels of each participant. Fine tree algorithm was trained and tested for classifying sleep bruxism with healthy controls using five-fold cross-validation.
    Results: Our results demonstrate that the C4P4 EEG channel was most effective for classification of sleep bruxism that yielded 95.59% sensitivity, 98.44% specificity, 97.84% accuracy, and 94.20% positive predictive value (PPV).
    Conclusions: Our results illustrate the feasibility of sleep bruxism classification using single EEG channel and provides an experimental foundation for the development of a future portable automatic sleep bruxism detection system.
