Objective: Acute appendicitis (AA) is the most common cause of acute abdomen and appendectomy is one of the most common surgical procedures. In this study, we aimed to compare open appendectomy (OA) and laparoscopic (LA) surgical techniques in the treatment of AA.
Methods: The data of 236 patients treated with the diagnosis of AA in 2019-2020 were analyzed.
Introduction: The availability of optimum diagnostic strategies remains a major problem in resource-constraint countries. This technique of patient-initiated follow-up (PIFU) has been recently adopted in the UK for gynecological cancers and has proven cost benefits. However, no study from the Indian subcontinent has ever been reported.

Generally tumour is seen involving adjacent organs, like the vagina, anus, and urethra. Damage to the sphincter system leads to urinary incontinence.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the contribution of mVEMP to the conclusive diagnosis of recurrent vestibulopathy patients that were diagnosed with Possible Meniere's disease.
Methods: The study includes 20 healthy individuals aged 18 to 40 years and 20 patients that were diagnosed with Possible Meniere's disease according to the American Academy of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS, 1995) Guidelines for the Definition of Meniere's Disease.
Article Synopsis
- This study presents quantum reaction probabilities for N + NN collisions, focusing on inelastic and reactive processes at total angular momentum 0 and kinetic energies up to 4.5 eV.
- The research utilizes ortho-NN species due to N's nuclear spin and examines the reactivity of -NN starting from rotational state 0.
- The findings indicate that atom exchange reactions do not occur below 2.2 eV, with 2.0 eV being optimal for inelastic scattering, while around 5.0 eV leads to the production of excited vibrational levels in a newly formed NN isotopologue.
