The complex process of skin aging results in noticeable changes, including decreased collagen content, reduced elasticity, and decreased hydration. Interventions to preserve or restore collagen, a key structural protein, may help counteract these signs. The concept of "beauty from within” through nutritional supplements is of growing interest, particularly the use of plant-based alternatives to animal-derived or synthetic collagen. This study investigated the anti-aging potential of an extract from Moldavian dragon [...]

X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLHR) is a hereditary metabolic disease caused by the loss of phosphate through the renal tubules into the urine and an associated decrease in serum calcium and potassium phosphate, resulting in bone and dental abnormalities. We report this case, aiming to describe, through an 8-year follow-up case report, the clinical approach adopted in managing dental features in both primary and permanent dentition in a child diagnosed with XLHR. The oral manifestations were mainly premature e [...]

Biodiversity—the rich variety of life on Earth—is essential for ecosystem stability and resilience, which, in turn, supports human well-being. However, human activities, such as habitat destruction, pollution, overexploitation, and climate change, are placing unprecedented pressures on global biodiversity, emphasizing the need for urgent conservation measures. In response, biodiversity education and outreach initiatives have become pivotal in fostering conservation awareness and action. This paper critically evalua [...]

Adsorption of toxic gas of CO molecules by using transition metals of X (X = Ti, V, Cr, Co, Cu, Zn)-doped boron nitride nanocage (B5N10_NC) has been studied by computational chemistry. Based on NQR analysis, X-doped on B5N10_NC has shown the lowest fluctuation in electric potential and the highest negative atomic charge, including 0.2331 (copper), 0.3112 (cobalt), 0.5883 (chromium), 0.6853 (zinc), 0.6893 (vanadium) and 0.7499 coulomb (titanium), respectively, have presented the most tendency for being the electron [...]

This study investigates the relationship between entropy and societal dynamics, with a particular focus on the origins and implications of war. By using entropy as a measure of uncertainty and inequality, the research examines societal stability through patterns of stratification and wealth distribution. Employing simplified models of various wealth distributions, the study explores their effects on social stratification and the potential for conflict. Drawing on historical and contemporary examples, it delves into [...]

In orthopedics and oncology, benign and malignant bone lesions pose significant clinical challenges. Malignant tumors, like osteosarcomas and multiple myeloma, pose substantial health dangers and can spread common and mostly non-life-threatening benign lesions, including non-sizing fibromas and unicameral bone cysts. Treatment plans for bone lesions may involve radiation, chemotherapy, and surgical excision, depending on their type. Combining stem cell research, bioactive materials, and advanced scaffold design, cu [...]

Cerebrovascular diseases such as strokes and cerebral hemorrhages are important causes of death in the world, which increase during pregnancy due to physiological conditions. This study investigated risk factors such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension and other factors by searching in databases. After searching, 35 articles were reviewed based on the inclusion criteria. The inclusion criteria included articles from 2014-2024 related to the words "pregnancy" AND "cerebrovascular disease." The obtained results were e [...]

Outdoor school spaces are significant, as they provide great opportunities for outdoor exploration, leading to the overall enhancement of a student’s well-being. This paper analyzes the outdoor school spaces in Dubai to optimize them and ensure their thermal comfort. To achieve this aim, using a mixed methodology approach of survey, field observation, workshops and ENVI-met V5.3 software simulation, the existing outdoor spaces were analyzed and then enhanced using several proposed heat mitigation strategies. The im [...]

Since the initial discovery of the CRISPR system in bacteria as an adaptive immune system, a deeper understanding of CRISPR structure and function has made it possible to perform gene editing, gene therapy, and revolutionize the diagnostic field. One of the exciting applications of the CRISPR-Cas system is used as a tool for the rapid diagnosis of infectious diseases and their treatment and the prevention of infection spread among people. The CRISPR-based diagnostic system could be the next-generation standard beca [...]
