Background: Pyrethroid insecticides are commonly used insecticides. This study was undertaken to characterize the clinical profile and outcome of deliberate self-harm (DSH) with type 1 and type 2 pyrethroids and identify factors associated with need for hospitalization.
Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital in South India to study the clinical features, treatment, and outcome of patients with pyrethroid poisoning due to DSH.
Background: The study explores the impact of microleakage on bracket (metal/ceramic) debonding and the occurrence of white spot lesions during orthodontic treatment. Various curing techniques are employed to assess shear bond strength (SBS) and microleakage in both metal and ceramic brackets.
Materials And Methods: A total of 120 samples were divided into six groups, each consisting of 20 samples.
Article Synopsis
- Literature on pregnancy outcomes for individuals with a solitary kidney is limited and mainly derived from renal donors.
- Unilateral renal agenesis, a condition affecting 1 in 1500 people, can lead to complications like resistant hypertension during pregnancy.
- The case presented discusses the use of Eplerenone, an aldosterone blocker, to manage resistant hypertension in a pregnant patient with secondary hyperaldosteronism linked to renal agenesis.*
Background: During the second wave of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, a subset of critically ill patients developed delayed respiratory deterioration in the absence of new infection, fluid overload or extra-pulmonary organ dysfunction.
Aim: To describe the clinical and laboratory characteristics, outcomes, and management of these patients, and to contrast this entity with other post COVID-19 immune dysregulation related inflammatory disorders.
Methods: This was a retrospective observational study of adult patients admitted to the medical intensive care unit of a 2200-bed university affiliated teaching hospital, between May and August 2021, who fulfilled clearly defined inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Background: The prescribing practice of newer oral anticoagulants (NOACs) has not been adequately studied in the Indian scenario.
Aims: We aimed to describe the prescribing practices of oral anticoagulants, the patient profile and medical comorbidities among patients admitted in a general medicine unit.
Methods: In this retrospective study of the 2742 patients prescribed vitamin- K antagonists (VKAs), during the study period, 150 cases were randomly taken for analysis to match the 105 NOACs cases.
