Telephonic intervention to combat non-adherence to oral iron-folic acid supplementation in pregnancy: A randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSION: In addition to improving adherence to oral IFAS, telephonic intervention mitigates side effects and enhances hemoglobin in anemic pregnant women. The increase in adherence was threefold in the experimental group compared to a marginal rise in the control group.

Genetic Disorders in Pediatric Rheumatology Clinic: When to Suspect, and Why?
Indian J Pediatr. 2023 Sep 22. doi: 10.1007/s12098-023-04845-w. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTJust under a decade ago, most children with genetic disorders received a phenotypic diagnosis, often by atlas matching. With advances in genomics (decoding of human genome, easy availability of genetic testing, and reduction in cost of tests), genotypic diagnosis is now a reality. Genetic diseases can lead to non-inflammatory arthritis that can mimic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). A small but growing number (as newer genes are discovered) of genetic diseases are being diagnosed in children with a seemingly inflammatory muscu...

Care without heart: kinship, chronic illness, and the emotion of care in Delhi
Anthropol Med. 2023 Sep 22:1-16. doi: 10.1080/13648470.2023.2245308. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDrawing on ethnography of one family's life with diabetes in a poor settlement in Delhi's suburbs, this paper examines the relationship between emotional structures of care and kinship in the face of chronic illness. While anthropologists have argued for a relational understanding of care and discussed how, in India, modernity and social transformations have resulted in crises of familial care, less attention has been paid to the emotional terrains of care and its difficulties as they unfold in concrete relationships over tim...

Evaluation of the marginal fit of full contoured zirconia, lithium disilicate and metal crowns fabricated using CAD-CAM: An in vitro study
Discussion: The metal group showed the lowest marginal gap among the groups. This difference in marginal fit is due to the sintering process where the organic binders in soft metal burn out and the metallic powder particles are being sintered (caked) without creating a fused phase. Clinical Significance: Marginal fit plays a very important role in the long-term success of a crown. Discrepancy in marginal fit results in food and plaque accumulation causing caries and periodontal breakdown, eventuating the failure of the restoration. A perfect marginal fit would enhance the longevity of any indirect restoration. Knowledge ab...
