Abstract

Nanotechnology is the most advanced research technique used in different fields of science like agriculture, food, therapeutics, energy and so on. Nanorobots are small scale materials having wide variety of uses in the field of diagnosis and therapeutics. Nanorobots or nanobots are self-propelled nanomotors and nanodevices which are biodegradable. These are made from bio- nano components that have the ability to carry the drug cargo to the target site and deliver these loaded drugs to the diseased cells. We can programme these nanobots for the transport of molecular payloads and can execute many site- specific functions, in vivo health monitoring etc. Diabetes is the most common health condition where the glucose or sugar levels are high in the body. On the other hand, cancer is also a life- threatening disease where the cell undergoes uncontrolled proliferation.

Abstract

Amblyaudia represents the spectrum of auditory processing deficits (APD) that are felt to be associated with asymmetric hearing loss (AHL) and may have detrimental effects on hearing and language development. Findings: The hallmark finding in amblyaudia is an abnormally large asymmetry between the two ears during dichotic listening tasks with either normal or below normal performance in the dominant ear. Imbalanced signaling between the two ears during critical periods may result in altered or maladaptive patterns of neural connections that persist even after the secondary pathology has resolved.Amblyaudia frequently presents with difficulties in attention, speech comprehension, and reading.

Abstract

As the current understanding of COVID-19 continues to emerge, the compilation of literature on the neurological impact of this novel virus might facilitate inform clinical management and highlight potential non-investigative approaches. Besides, perceiving the potential mechanisms of neurologic injury can guide efforts to better understand these conditions. Therefore, in this review, we include the scope of pre-terminal observation and a series of preliminary cases describing the likelihood and potential neurological manifestations related to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Both disorders now have treatment options that focus on symptom relief, improving patient quality of life, and delaying the advancement of the disease rather than trying to cure the underlying problem. Anti-inflammatory treatments, bronchodilators, and inhaled corticosteroids are among the treatment options accessible to patients. Treatments for illness symptoms and exacerbations are beneficial, although there are still limits.
