Dental caries are among most common oral diseases including others like bad breath, dry mouth, periodontitis or gum disease, including gingivitis, and sometimes oral cancer. The present study was planned to assess the prevalence of dental caries among population after the eruption of permanent dentition and to find out the association of socio-demographic characteristics with the prevalence of dental caries. Majority of the patients were between 15 years and 35 years old (41.35%). A small percentage (16.67%) of the patients were 40-60 years old. 56.14% students were male and 43.86% were female. 66.67% population belonged to Hindu religion and the rest population was Muslims. Our study raised serious concern about individual and social habit regarding oral hygiene. Data showed washing mouth, financial condition and number of family members affected oral hygiene habit which finally landed as dental carries.

Prolactin gene polymorphism at exon 5 of prolactin receptor gene (PRLR5) was studied in Aseel birds along with its interaction with laying performance. Laying performances were recorded as age at first laying (AFE), Body Weight at First Egg (WFE), Mean Egg Weight (MEW) and Total No. of Eggs at 90 days of laying (TEN). DNA was isolated from 2-3ml not clear of Blood from 40 birds collected from wing vein. PRLR5 locus was amplified by PCR and the product was restriction digested with Bam HI and resolved on 2% Agarose gels for genotyping. The AFE (d), WFE (Kg), MEW (g) and TEN of Aseel birds in the present study were found to be 188.40±0.22, 1.57±0.03, 43.61±0.36 & 35.48±0.40 respectively. The prolactin gene locus PRLR5 showed two alleles A & B. The frequencies of A and B alleles at this locus were 0.60 and 0.40 respectively. There was no interaction of various laying performances found with alleles of PRLR5.

The Wire Electro Discharge Machining (WEDM) process is a violent thermal process where literally thousands of electrical discharges are produced in a fraction of a single second in order to erode a certain volume of metal workpiece. The process is mostly and efficiently used in situations where intricate complex shapes need to be machined in very hard materials (such as hardened tool steel, CBN, Ceramic etc). However, the process generates surfaces that have poor properties such as high tensile residual stresses, high surface roughness, presence of micro-cracks and microvoids. These properties vary with different levels of the main conventional machining parameters. The aim of this FEA simulation is to present a transient thermal and structural simulation work that has been a three-dimensional finite element model with two new materials to predict the temperature distribution, Total heat flux at different pulses of time as well as stress distribution in WEDM wire electrode. Thermal stress developed after the end of the spark and structural stresses developed due to tension in wire electrode. The effect on significant machining parameter pulseon-time has been investigated and found that the peak temperature is sharply increases with the parameters. Wire electrical discharge machining process is a mostly used non-conventional material removal processes.

Letters to the Editor with gentle traction. 4. With the gloved (right) hand, thin disposble syringe needle is passed along side the Foley's catheter per urethrally. Invariably the needle punctures the balloon and the fluid from balloon is seen coming out through the needle. The Foley's catheter comes out on NECROTIZING FASCITIS
