An Incidental Finding of Low-Grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm in a Case of Borderline Brenner Tumor of the Ovary.

The concurrent presentation of a low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) and a borderline Brenner tumor (BT) of the ovary are exceedingly rare. Brenner tumors stand out as a particularly uncommon form, making up only around 5% of all benign epithelial tumors of the ovary. Among the ovarian Brenner, the borderline subtype is even rarer.

The protocol for an observational Australian cohort study of CADASIL: The AusCADASIL study.

Introduction: Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a rare genetic condition with a broad phenotypic presentation. This study aims to establish the first Australian cohort of individuals affected by CADASIL (AusCADASIL) and examine its clinical features and longitudinal course, and to investigate neuroimaging and blood biomarkers to assist in early diagnosis and identify disease progression.

Methods: Participants will be recruited from six study centres across Australia for an observational study of CADASIL.

Exploring the Rare Case of a Sarcomatoid Variant of Urothelial Carcinoma.

A sarcomatoid variant of urothelial carcinoma (SVUC) is an extremely rare variant, which accounts for only 0.1-0.3% of all urothelial carcinomas of the bladder.

Combined Radiological and Endoscopic Evaluation of Sino Nasal Anatomical Variations in Patients of Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A North Indian Study.

To determine the prevalence of anatomical variations of nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) on CT scan imaging. To correlate the Anatomical variations with the extent of CRS. 100 patients attending the ENT outpatient department with clinically diagnosed CRS were selected for study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Aging Is Associated With Multidirectional Changes in Social Cognition: Findings From an Adult Life-Span Sample Ranging From 18 to 101 Years.

Objectives: Normal adult aging is associated with changes in social cognition. Although 4 social cognitive domains have been identified (social perception, theory of mind [ToM], affective empathy, and social behavior), no study has tested all 4 domains concurrently in a life-span sample, limiting understanding of the relative magnitude of age-related changes across domains. This study addresses this gap by providing the first assessment of all 4 social cognitive domains in an adult life-span sample.

An unusual case of recurrent vaginal discharge: Diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma.

Abnormal vaginal discharge is common among the females of the reproductive age group. Vulvovaginitis caused by azole-resistant is rare. Recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC) causes significant patient distress and morbidity.

Cardiovascular risk markers in premature canities.

Background: An elevated cardiovascular risk has been demonstrated in middle-aged individuals with onset of hair greying before the age of 30 years. Increased serum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), indicate an ongoing state of chronic inflammation that is correlated with cardiovascular risk but have not been studied earlier in patients with early onset of hair greying.

Aim/objective: To study various cardiovascular risk markers including pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in patients with premature canities.

antidiabetic and antimicrobial activity of Benth. essential oil from different sites of North-western Himalayas India.

Benth (Lamiaceae) is a wild herb that possesses a number of biologically active phytomolecules. The aim of this study was to investigate comparative essential oils (EOs) composition and biological (antimicrobial and anti-diabetic) activities of from higher altitudes. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and gas chromatography-flame ionisation detector (GC-FID) were carried out for the identification and quantification of EOs components.

Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria: An Etiopathogenic Study.

Importance: Exact etiopathogenesis of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) remains elusive. Infections, pseudoallergens, autoimmunity, and contact sensitization are various postulated factors. Few studies are available measuring cytokine levels in CSU.

A report on successful introduction of tele mental health training for primary care doctors during the COVID 19 pandemic.

Treatment gaps of 60-70%, reflecting, amongst many other factors, Human Resources shortfalls means that 150 million India never accessed mental healthcare. In Punjab, mental health training is required in primary health centers. A short-term synchronous training was conceptualized by the National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences.

Lung carcinoma paraneoplastic reactive regional pericarditis mimicking ST elevation myocardial infarct.

ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a cardiac emergency. However, multiple clinical disorders can cause ST-elevation ECG changes, one of which is pericarditis. Regional pericarditis is a less known clinical phenomenon that can mimic STEMI.

Future-Proofing Geriatric Mental Health Care Services in India: Training and Policy Directions.

Background: A burgeoning rise in the elderly subpopulation is being noted in India. This rise has already earned the designation as a shining nation by the United Nations/World Health Organization. This growth will take the elderly subpopulation to 324 million persons above 60 years by 2050.

Improving quality of care for pregnancy, perinatal and newborn care at district and sub-district public health facilities in three districts of Haryana, India: An Implementation study.

Introduction: Improving quality of care (QoC) for childbirth and sick newborns is critical for maternal and neonatal mortality reduction. Information on the process and impact of quality improvement at district and sub-district hospitals in India is limited. This implementation research was prioritized by the Haryana State (India) to improve the QoC for maternal and newborn care at the busy hospitals in districts.

Do health expenditure and human development index matter in the carbon emission function for ensuring sustainable development? Evidence from the heterogeneous panel.

This study is an attempt to explain the nexus between health expenditures, GDP, human development index (HDI), CO emissions (COEM), renewable energy (RENE), financial development (FD) and electricity consumption (EC) using data from 2000Q to 2014Q for Brazil, India, China and South Africa. The study applies CIPS and CADF to determine the integration order. The tests confirmed the unique order of integration.
