Excerpt Introduction Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined as a cluster of symptoms whose coexistence significantly contributes to cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, and other conditions, thus increasing the risk of premature death1. The definition of MetS has evolved over time into its current form, adopted in 2009. The components of this disorder include: reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and increased waist circumference, triglycerides (TG), blood pressure and fasti

To the Editor: The Centers for Disease Control recognized community water fluoridation as one of the 10 great public health achievements of the twentieth century for improving oral health, especially in children [1]. Unfortunately, long-term exposure to higher endemic water fluoride caused dental fluorosis, skeletal fractures, cancers, and affected reproduction, thyroid functions, and intelligence quotient (IQ) [2, 3]. The present study analyzed the outcome of spectral severity of water flu
