Epidermoid cyst is an extremely rare congenital disorder of the oro-facial region which results from entrapped epidermal elements without adnexal appendages in it, and are, histologically benign and slow growing. Dermoid and epidermoid cysts is seen in the oro-facial region with incidence of 7% and is less than 0.01% of all oral cavity cysts. Here we report a case of epidermal cyst in the region of anterior fontanelle.
Background: The online presence of YouTube as a broad means for video information sharing may have an influential role on the public's understanding of ablation techniques in treatment of Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome (WPW) syndrome. This project was designed to collect and analyze available video information on YouTube regarding WPW ablation
Leiomyoma is a rare benign tumor that occurs in solitary or multifocal forms. Most common location is uterus. Skin is the second commonest site comprising of about 3-5% of all leiomyomas. Cutaneous leiomyomas arise from smooth muscles in the skin; from arrector pilar muscles associated with the hair follicles (pilar leiomyoma), media in the blood vessel (angioleiomyoma) and smooth muscle in the scrotum or labia (genital leiomyoma). Piloleiomyoma is the most common type of cutaneous leiomyoma Clinically they mimic other cutaneous lesions and pose a diagnostic challenge.

The problem of arsenic toxicity in Murshidabad district of West Bengal is geogenic in origin. Hariharpara is one of the severely affected blocks of Murshidabad district, where one-third of the groundwater samples contain arsenic above 50 µg/L, which is the maximum recommended level of consumption in absence of alternate source of drinking water, proposed by World Health Organization (WHO). Potential health hazards faced by the residents of Hariharpara block include skin problems like warts, cones and hyperkeratosis.
Median rhomboid glossitis (MRG) is characterized by a shiny oval or diamond-shaped depapillated region on the dorsal midline of the tongue situated anterior to the circumvallate papillae at about the junction of the anterior two third and posterior one third of the tongue. Dentists play an important role in the diagnosis and management of oral fungal diseases. Awareness of the signs and symptoms of oral fungal diseases could aid in early diagnosis, and proper treatment. This paper reports a case of kissing lesion in a 12 year old female patient.

Introduction: The term Non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is used to describe fatty liver changes from simple steatosis to steatohepatitis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma in the absence of excessive alcohol intake.
High serum level of hs-CRP is an independent risk factor of short-term progression to NASH in NAFLD patients associated with stable Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Increase in use of antibiotics in recent days have resulted in development of drug-resistant bacteria, which ultimately can be life threatening. As an alternative solution to this problem, we have used homeopathic medicines for our study of antibacterial activity of E.coli, a gram negative bacteria. Activities of Silicea, Sulphur and Calcarea carb (Calc carb) at the potency 6 C, 30 C, and 200 C were observed using general spread plate techniques. For different potencies of each of these drugs, activities are different. Among these three drugs sulphur is found to be more active.
