From basic research to practical applications, advanced process-technological methods for the design and synthesis of micro-/nano-systems are becoming more and more important. This collection of papers, presented at 11th International Conference on Precision Engineering, includes high-quality papers for industrial and scientific sources, discusses leading-edge technologies and forecasts future trends.
The medical activity of salvadora persica
The human mouth is inhabited from birth by many types and numbers of microbes that are both beneficial and harmful to the health of the mouth and teeth. Either. Multiple factors in the oral environment contribute to the multiplication and diversity of microbes, including in particular the regularity of natural teeth. The cleanliness and maintenance of artificial dentures, the amount of integrity and vitality of gum tissue and ligaments around the age, as well as an important factor relates to food quality. In the mouth, saliva deposits protein-sugar compounds that form thin, transparent layers called pellicle. The surfaces of the teeth (enamels), which helps the oral microbes to adhere to these layers and thus multiply and accumulate in large quantities and in the form of thin organic layers known as microbial dental plaque on the surfaces of the teeth, above and below edge of the gum. It is scientifically proven that if the teeth are not cleaned well or regularly daily and if the accumulation of plaque continues.
Socio-life science and the COVID-19 outbreak : Public health and public policy
Presents the first step towards building socio-life science, a field of science investigating humans in such a way that both social and life-scientific factors are integrated. Because humans are both living and social creatures, a human action can never be understood fully without knowing both the biological traits of a person and the social scientific environments in which he exists. With this consideration, the editors of this book have initiated a research project promoting a deeper and more integrated understanding of human behavior and human health.

New Vision of Metformin in treating cancer
The anti-diabetic drug metformin is rapidly emerging as a potential anticancer agent. Metformin is a biguanide that is effective in treating type 2 diabetes and the insulin resistance syndromes, improves insulin resistance by reducing hepatic gluconeogensis and by enhancing glucose uptake by skeletal muscle. Metformin can reduce the incidence of cancers and can reduce the mortality from cancers, increase the response to treatment cancer cells when using radiotherapy and chemotherapy, reduce the likelihood of relapse. Diabetes can be a factor in the occurrence of various types of cancer, and develop a variety of cancers such as colo-rectal, pancreas and liver cancers, compared to non-diabetic patients. Incidence of various cancers is high among patients of T2DM due to insulin resistance and mitogenic effects caused by hyperglycemia.
