Prevalence of Temporal Bone Malformations in Prospective Cochlear Implant Candidates.

Severe to profound Sensorineural Hearing Loss is a challenging medical problem, particularly if this condition is associated with an inner ear anomaly. This case series studies the prevalence of inner ear anomalies among 76 consecutive prospective cochlear implant candidates who presented to our tertiary care hospital over 2 years. Inner ear anomalies were identified in 11 cases with a prevalence rate of 14%.

QbD driven targeted pulmonary delivery of dexamethasone-loaded chitosan microspheres: Biodistribution and pharmacokinetic study.

Inhaling drugs, on the other hand, is limited mainly by the natural mechanisms of the respiratory system, which push drug particles out of the lungs or make them inefficient once they are there. Because of this, many ways have been found to work around the problems with drug transport through the lungs. Researchers have made polymeric microparticles (MP) and nanoparticles as a possible way to get drugs into the lungs.

Effect of acupuncture on cognitive task performance of college students: a pilot study.

Objectives: Reduction in cognitive function of college students affects their academic recitation. Acupuncture is widely practiced for health promotion. Objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of acupuncture on cognitive task performance in college students.

Sequencing Analysis of Genetic Loci for Resistance for Late Leaf Spot and Rust in Peanut ( L.).

The aim of this study was to identify candidate resistance genes for late leaf spot (LLS) and rust diseases in peanut ( L.). We used a double-digest restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (ddRAD-Seq) technique based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) for genotyping analysis across the recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between a susceptible line, TAG 24, and a resistant line, GPBD 4.

A questionnaire based study to assess knowledge, attitude and practice of pharmacovigilance among undergraduate medical students in a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital of South India.

Objectives: Spontaneous reporting of adverse drug reaction (ADR) is the backbone of pharmacovigilance program. Under reporting by prescribers is still exist. This study was done to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of undergraduate students about pharmacovigilance.
