Abstract: Facial aging is a physiological, interrelated, three-dimensional, dynamic and multifaceted process involving intrinsic and extrinsic factors, which affects not only the skin, but also the underlying bone structure, the facial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) and fat pads. Surgical temporal lift is an established technique for treating ptosis of the upper and middle third of the face. The patient came to the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology and Facial Aesthetic Surgeries Service......

Abstract: Background- The labial frenum is a dynamic structure and is subject to variations in size, shape and position. Frenum attachments are folds of mucous membranes that connect the lips to the alveolar mucosa and underlying periosteum. Aberrant positioning of the maxillary labial frenum can lead to various clinical issues, including mucogingival problems and midline diastema. Aim- To determine the prevalence of the various types of maxillary frenal attachments in 3-8 years old school going children. Study design- This cross-sectional study was carried out among.........

Abstract: Background: Ischemic stroke in young individuals and patients with recurrent stroke often remains unexplained despite comprehensive evaluation. Recent evidence suggests that Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) V617F mutation which is commonly associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) is known to carry a high risk of thrombotic events and has an underrecognized role in stroke pathogenesis, particularly in patients with hematological markers of hyper viscosity..........

Abstract: Background: Circulatory shock is a severe medical condition where the circulatory system fails to provide sufficient oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissues, leading to cellular damage and organ failure. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a technological innovation that has transformed medical practice, especially in emergency and intensive care settings, where diagnostic speed and accuracy are crucial. POCUS enables quick and accurate diagnoses, comparable to invasive methods, and has a positive impact on clinical outcomes.

Abstract: Growing insights suggest that interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features (IPAF) and antisynthetase syndrome (ASS) may represent different stages within a single disease continuum, especially in patients who test positive for myositis-specific antibodies (MSAs). A significant proportion of MSA-positive IPAF cases eventually progress to defined connective tissue diseases, most commonly ASS, over a period of several years. Among these, anti-Jo-1 and anti-Ro52 antibodies are associated with the highest risk of progression. This clinical and immunological overlap calls into question the validity of the IPAF label for MSA-positive individuals and highlights the need for flexible classification models. Recognizing IPAF and ASS as points along a shared spectrum supports a shift toward stage-based diagnosis and more aggressive immunosuppressive treatment.

Abstract: Objectives: To compare the angular changes in the developing maxillary and mandibular third molar in both first premolar and non- extraction cases and to determine whether premolar extraction results in a more mesial movement of the maxillary and mandibular buccal segment and causes favourable rational changes in maxillary and mandibular 3rdmolar tilt, which can enhance later eruption of third molar.......
