Impact of diabetes mellitus on treatment outcome of newly diagnosed smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients: A case–Control study

Medical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, 2023
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) and diabetes mellitus (DM) are major public health problems in developing countries such as India. The link of DM and TB is more prominent in these countries where TB is endemic, and the burden of DM is increasing.

Effect of smear layer on calcium hydroxide removal from root canal using different systems: An ex-vivo study

Scientific Dental Journal, 2022
Background: For successful multi-visit endodontic treatment, clinicians often use calcium hydroxide as an intracanal medicament, and it is necessary to completely remove it from canal before obturation.

A new droplet digital PCR assay: improving detection of paucibacillary smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2022
Objectives: Smear-negative pulmonary TB (PTB) is difficult to diagnose. Current diagnosis and treatment monitoring methods have inherent limitations. Droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) is a new technique with high sensitivity.

Effects of gravitational smearing on predictions of supergravity grand unification [PDF]

Physical Review D, 1995
Limits on gravitational smearing from the dominant dimension 5 operator (with strength characterised by $cM/2M_{Planck}$) are obtained using the LEP data in supersymmetric SU(5) grand unification. Effects of c on the quasi infrared fixed point solutio ns of $m_b/m_τ$ unification are also analysed. It is found that $c>0$ softens and $c<0$ stiffens
