Spatiotemporal dynamics of carbon isotope ratios and phytoplankton composition in the eastern Arabian Sea.

This study investigated major contributors of the particulate organic matter (POM) using stable isotope ratios of particulate organic carbon (δC) and its relationship with phytoplankton composition during three seasons across six coast-offshore transects in the eastern Arabian Sea (EAS). Results revealed significant spatiotemporal variations, with elevated δC in coastal waters during the winter and summer monsoon (-22.40 ± 1.

WEBINO: A unique neuro-ophthalmological manifestation of the unilateral mid-brain cerebrovascular event.

WEBINO (wall eye intranuclear ophthalmoplegia) is a specific type of neuroophthalmological condition that occurs due to a lesion in the MLF (medial longitudinal fasciculus), which causes unique symptoms characterized by bilateral adduction (inward movement of the eyes) impairment. Still, the abduction (outward movement of the eyes) may be preserved, and nystagmus during abduction is seen along with severe exotropia (outward movement of the eyes). In this case report, we report a 65-year-old male with a sudden onset of double vision, which he noticed while watching television, associated with a certain degree of vision loss and right-sided weakness of the body.

Isolated Osseous Rosai Dorfman Disease of Foot Bones. Report of a Patient Misdiagnosed and Treated as Chronic Osteomyelitis.

Isolated osseous involvement without lymphadenopathy is a rare manifestation of Rosai-Dorfman disease. It clinically and radiologically mimics infections and primary bone tumors. The present report describes a 9-year-old girl with multifocal monomelic osseous involvement as an isolated manifestation.

A retrospective study to assess adolescent nutritional deficiencies and the association with post-COVID-19 status.

Introduction: Adolescents represent 16% of the world's population and around 21% of the Indian population. A study was done to assess the double burden of malnutrition, the proportion of inadequate intake of some important macronutrients and micronutrients, and the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on nutrient intakes among adolescents.

Methodology: Retrospective data analysis of the adolescents presented at the Adolescent Health Clinic at a teaching hospital (tertiary care level) in Andhra Pradesh, India, between September 2022 and December 2022 was done in the current study.

A single-base deletion in exon 2 of Hd1 delineates monogenic recessive photoperiod insensitivity in aromatic Joha rice: a novel allele for seasonal adaptability.

Background: Assam's aromatic Joha rice is a unique rice class famous for its aroma, taste, and nutritional benefits, which fetch high market prices in domestic and international markets. Joha landraces are inherently poor yielders due to their strong aroma and predominantly photoperiod sensitivity. Hybridization involving non-aromatic HYVs improves yield with concomitant loss of quality.
