Pathological tooth migration-spontaneous correction of diastema after surgical periodontal therapy: a case report.

A common consequence of moderate to extreme periodontitis is pathologic migration. This denotes tooth movement when the periodontal disease interjects the equilibrium among the elements that preserve physiological tooth position. The balancing factors can migrate the teeth in any direction. The etiology of pathological migration tends to be multifactorial, thus achieving early diagnosis is imperative, which will ultimately lead to the prompt removal of the etiological factors while avoiding severe bone destruction. In this case maxillary central incisors had diastema due to pathological migration with mobility grade I in maxillary left central incisor. Many cases of moderate to severe pathological migration need a suitable, interdisciplinary approach. Nevertheless, since it is possible to detect mild cases of Pathological tooth migration (PTM) at an early stage, spontaneous correction of migrated teeth can be accomplished by periodontal therapy alone. Regardless of the treatment selected, maintenance of stable results should be considered as an aim of treatment.

Changing trends in Covid-19 publication in India by bibliometrics analysis.

Objective: The purpose of this research is to compare over the developing trend in Covid-19 research publications between 2020 and 2021 in India, overall in respect of age groups, health conditions, funding support, institutions, and research design. Background: Covid-19 is a contagious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), first cited in Wuhan, China in December 2019. And has affected the entire world rapidly and still ongoing. The symptoms are fever, cough, weakness, and breathlessness; the infected individual develops pneumonia that sometimes leads to respiratory failure. The older population with co-morbidities is at higher risk. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional study done by Scopus, Web of Science, and Pubmed Indexed journals, with the Covid-19, SARS-CoV, Pandemic, Coronavirus, India, and Outburst as keywords. Yearly publication data were extracted through 'Bibliometrix R studio' and relative percentage was computed and linear or exponential regressions examined the yearly growth in the proportion to research publications on Covid-19.

Multicorrection Goldenhar syndrome (facio-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia): a rare follow-up case of 12-year-old female.

The MSX homeobox genes cause Goldenhar syndrome (GHS) or facio-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia, a rare developmental defect. Its exact etiology is still unknown. Its incidence lies between 1: 3500 and 1: 5600. In 85% of the cases, the unilateral face is affected. Typical clinical findings in a classic GHS include eye disorders, ear irregularities (with or without hearing loss), facial impairments, dental and oral ailments, cardiac syndromes, central nervous system (CNS) involvement, trachea and lung malformations, kidney and gastrointestinal defects, and skeletal alterations. This case report presents a follow-up case of Goldenhar Syndrome in a 12-year-old female, with no relevant family history, diagnosed with anotia on the left side, cyanosis, and facial asymmetry at birth. She presented with moderate growth failure, bilateral sclerosing mastoiditis and kyphoscoliosis. She underwent posterior scoliosis correction posterior instrumented fusion from D1 to D11.
