Conundrum of Acute Liver Failure.

A 20-year-old male with fever, myalgia, and jaundice developed severe liver dysfunction, progressing to acute liver failure (ALF). Initial treatment for malaria and supportive care did not resolve symptoms, with persistent jaundice and elevated liver enzymes. Laboratory tests confirmed Plasmodium falciparum/Plasmodium vivax infection.

An assessment of in vitro lead (Pb) bioaccumulation of Dianthus chinensis L. (Chinese pink).

Heavy metals (HM) also known as potentially toxic elements (PTEs), are well-known environmental pollutants, among which lead (Pb) is a widespread and hazardous soil contaminant. Its removal from soil sediments is often difficult to achieve. In this study, in vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the bioaccumulation capability of Dianthus chinensis L.

Ayurvedic management of dengue haemorrhagic fever with menorrhagia: A case report.

Dengue fever is one of the most common tropical disease affecting humans. Symptomatic dengue infection causes a wide range of clinical manifestations from mild dengue fever to potentially fatal disease such as DHF or DSS. Menorrhagia is rarely presented as a symptom in females with DHF.

Exploratory Study on Micronuclei and Metanuclear Abnormalities in Exfoliated Buccal Cells of COVID-19 Suspected Patients.

Context: SARS-CoV-2 virus causes COVID-19 by infecting nasal and oral cavities primarily by attaching its spike proteins to ACE 2 receptors expressed in epithelial cells.

Aim: This study was done to evaluate the micronucleated cell count, metanuclear abnormalities, and genotoxic factor in exfoliated buccal mucosal cell among the COVID-19 suspected patients.

Settings And Design: This cross-sectional study was conducted at AIIMS, Mangalagiri, between August and October 2022.

A prospective-randomized placebo-controlled trial comparing the effects of nebulized dexmedetomidine v/s dexmedetomidine-lignocaine mixture on intraoperative hemodynamics and surgical field quality in patients undergoing endoscopic transnasal transsphenoidal pituitary tumor surgery.

Background: During transnasal transsphenoidal pituitary surgery (TNTSS), the primary objective is to maintain stable hemodynamics while ensuring ideal surgical conditions. This study aimed to investigate the effect of nebulized dexmedetomidine on hemodynamic parameters and the quality of the surgical field during TNTSS.

Methods: Seventy-five patients scheduled for TNTSS were randomized into three groups of 25 each and received preoperative nebulization with 5 mL of nebulizing fluid consisting of 1.
