Utilization Of Pvp-Pla Combination In Fabricating Theophylline-Loaded Filament For 3d Printing With Immediate Release Behavior, Arief Kurniawan, Silvia Surini

Pharmaceutical Sciences and Research

Fused deposition modeling (FDM), known as a highly effective 3D printing technique, holds promise as an alternative approach to tablet manufacturing. While commonly employing thermoplastic polymers as starting materials, the integration of established pharmaceutical excipients remains unexplored. Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) is a frequently used excipient known for its potential to confer immediate-release properties to drugs. However, its suitability for extrusion is hindered by its thermal and melt-rheological properties. In contrast, polylactic acid (PLA), which has robust mechanical strength and thermal plasticity, was expected to overcome PVP’s limitations. This study aims to obtain drug-loaded filaments using the combination of PVP and …

Comparison Of Prevalence And Associated Factors Of Multisystem Health Symptoms Among Workers In The Gas Station Area, Thailand, Chan Pattama Polyong, Anamai Thetkathuek

Kesmas

This cross-sectional study aimed to compare the prevalence of multisystem health symptoms (MHS) of workers in gas station areas before and after their employment and examine the factors affecting the MHS of workers. Data were collected by an interview questionnaire from 200 workers inside and outside refueling areas at eight gas stations in Rayong Province, Thailand. This study found that employees had a statistically significant increase in the prevalence of current MHS in comparison to before starting work (p-value<0.05), with 31.5%. Working overtime for more than 6 hours per week led to respiratory symptoms (OR = 2.63, 95% CI = 1.14–6.07) and psychological symptoms (OR = 2.69, 95% CI = 1.12–6.49). Wearing respiratory protective equipment for less than three hours affected ear/throat/nose systems (OR = 4.26, 95% CI = 1.43–12.65). Petrol refueling resulted in liver (OR = 2.32, 95% CI = 1.4–12.65) and eye symptoms (OR = 2.57, 95% CI = 1.10–5.39). Therefore, gas station owners should set up enclosed rooms to reduce the duration of fuel exposure, and workers should wear personal protective equipment when refueling or near the dispenser.

Oral Leukoplakia: Diagnosis And Management Revisited, Isaäc Van Der Waal

Journal of Dentistry Indonesia

The definition of oral leukoplakia has not much changed during the past five decades and is still a definition by exclusion of ‘known’ lesions. Therefore, a diagnosis of leukoplakia is not always a straightforward one for the clinicians and, to some extent, also for the pathologists. The traditional clinical classification in homogeneous and nonhomogeneous leukoplakia may just be simplified into leukoplakia (thin and thick/verrucous) and erythroleukoplakia. In spite of numerous reported predictive molecular and genetic parameters of malignant transformation, the presence and grade of epithelial dysplasia as assessed by histopathological examination is still the most important one. Of the various …
