Cheiloscopy refers to the study of lip print patterns formed by grooves on the vermilion border of the lips. unique to individuals and remain stable throughout life, making them valuable in forensic identi cation. Lip prints develop during in utero period and are genetically determined.

Nigeria is home to several natural beauties and has a rich, diverse wildlife. Several factors threaten the survival of wild animals, including habitat loss, poaching, climate change, and wildlife diseases, especially those caused by gastrointestinal parasites [1]. Zoological gardens display collections of wild animals for research, conservation, education, and recreation. Animals in zoos are captured from their natural habitats and kept in man-made environments [2, 3]. The main challenges of keeping wild ani mals in captivity are parasitic diseases [4]. In their natural habitats, wild animals may have immunity to ectoparasites and endo parasites, or maintain a balance with them as they roam across large areas. Parasites can infect hosts, but the animal's immune system determines whether disease develops [5].

According to population present in India with Internet access has developed significantly, with adolescents and young emerg ing adults including the majority of users. It is essential to understand the frequency, correlates, and impact of online gaming on the psychological well-being of gamers compared to non-gamers in contemporary society. Males are more prone to violent games, while girls are more likely to play non-violent ones. It is also vital to analyze any differences between these two cate gories of games [1].

Serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) is an informative test primarily used to detect abnormalities in the gamma region, particularly to identify monoclonal immunoglobulins (M- proteins) in multiple myeloma (MM). MM is the second most common hematologic cancer, mainly affecting adults over 65. This study presents SPE results from routine laboratory check- ups in healthy Bulgarian adults.

People Living with HIV (PLHIV) have a higher risk of mental health issues than the public. HIV and related infections can affect the brain and the rest of the nervous system. This may change how a person thinks and behaves. In addition, some medications used to treat HIV may have side effects that affect a person's mental health [1]. HIV causes significant inflammation in the body. This inflammation can cause neurological complications by damaging the spinal cord and brain, which form the central nervous system. Despite effective Antiretroviral (ART), people with HIV are still at risk for central nervous system diseases associated with HIV. These diseases can be neurological (affecting the nervous system) or neurocognitive (affecting cognition or mental processing).

Age related changes in combination of voice and swallowing are often unaddressed in geriatric population. The study highlights the coexistence of presbyphonia and presbyphagia. Early diagnosis and providing appropriate intervention strategies can help improve the individual’s quality of life.
