Relationship between Handgrip Strength, Flexibility and Anthropometric Measures in Elderly Population: A Cross-Sectional Study
No full textThe aging process leads to biological changes that affect the physical performance and nutritional status of older adults. The objective this study is to determine the association between physical performance and anthropometric and body composition variables in the elderly. This is a cross-sectional study. To verify the correlation between handgrip strength (HGS) and flexibility with age and anthropometric variables in the elderly. This was a cross-sectional home-based study of elderly individuals. Gender, age, HGS, flexibility, arm muscle circumference (AMC), corrected arm muscle area (CAMA), and body mass index (BMI) were recorded. A total of 420 elderly individuals were evaluated. Correlations of HGS with age, AMC and CAMA, in both genders, were observed. BMI correlated with HGS only in females. Flexibility correlated with BMI in males. In the multivariate analysis, age and AMC were predictive variables of the HGS variation in females. In males, age was the only variable predictive of HGS, and BMI was the predictor of flexibility variation. The results indicate a probable influence of age and anthropometric variables in muscular strength, as well as that of excess weight in flexibility limitation

Exploring Cocrystals: Preparation Tactics, Advantages, And Formation Mechanisms
No full textThe low solubility profile of drugs is one of the most demanding characteristics in drug dosage development, restraining the bioavailability of any drug. Based on solubility and permeability profiles, drugs are categorized into four different groups by the biopharmaceutical Classification system (BCS), which provides guidance optimization of dosage form for any drug. Many formulation methods for solubility enhancement of drugs having low solubility have been prepare. While they have shown fruitful results in enhancing drug bioavailability effectively, outcomes of these methods are based on certain physicochemical conditions of that molecule. Some of these methods have been discussed in this article. The preferred drug formulation for the majority of APIs continues to be oral dosage forms. Pharmaceutical co-crystals are a cutting-edge approach for increasing the bioavailability of low-solubility drugs in oral dosage form by boosting solubility, micrometric properties, dissolution rate, and stability. Co-crystals are the combination of an active pharmaceutical ingredient and one or more pharmaceutically accepted guest molecules called coformer in a stoichiometric ratio in a crystal lattice. In the current scenario, the solubility profile of drugs is a leading concern in drug development in pharma industry. This review paper offers a thorough examination of pharmaceutical cocrystals, encompassing preparation techniques, physicochemical characteristics, and practical uses. It serves as a valuable resource for improving the design and production of pharmaceutical cocrystals with specific physicochemical traits and intended applications, providing valuable insights for their efficient developmen

Assessment Of Dental Fluorosis Among Patients At A Northern India District Hospital: A Cross-Sectional Study
No full text Background: Dental fluorosis, a condition caused by excessive fluoride intake during tooth development, is a significant public health concern in regions with high fluoride levels in drinking water. This study aims to assess the prevalence and severity of dental fluorosis among patients at a district hospital in northern India and examine its association with oral hygiene and periodontal disease.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Dentistry, Autonomous State Medical College, Fatehpur, India, over twelve months from June 2022 to June 2023. A convenience sample of 1,879 adult patients aged 18 years and above was recruited. Data were collected using a standardized questionnaire, clinical examinations for dental fluorosis severity using the Thylstrup and Fejerskov Index (TFI), oral hygiene assessment using the Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (SOHI), and periodontal disease diagnosis based on bleeding on probing and probing depth. Statistical analyses were performed using chi-square tests and Spearman correlation coefficients.
Results: The study found that 58.4% of participants exhibited dental fluorosis, with 27.4% having mild and 19.5% having moderate fluorosis. Poor oral hygiene was observed in 14.4% of participants, and 23.8% had periodontitis. Significant associations were found between dental fluorosis severity and oral hygiene status (p < 0.01), as well as between dental fluorosis severity and periodontitis (p < 0.05). A moderate positive correlation was identified between dental fluorosis and SOHI (r = 0.34, p < 0.01), and between SOHI and periodontitis (r = 0.41, p < 0.01).
Conclusion: The study underscores the high prevalence of dental fluorosis in northern India and its association with poor oral hygiene and periodontal disease. These findings highlight the need for comprehensive public health strategies to mitigate fluoride exposure and improve oral health practices among the affected population. Further research with larger, geographically diverse samples and longitudinal studies is recommended to better understand the long-term impacts of dental fluorosis on oral health
