Preparation and Characterization of Mg Doped ZnAI₂O₄Spinel Nanoparticles.

In the present study, combustion technique is adopted to study the impact of Mg ion doping on ZnAI₂O₄ nanoparticles (NPs). L-arginine is used as a fuel component. The Mg ions play a pivotal role in persuading various characteristics of ZnAI₂O₄ NPs.

Clinical Spectrum of Autoerythrocyte Sensitization Syndrome: A Series of Five Cases.

Autoerythrocyte sensitization syndrome (Gardner Diamond syndrome or GDS) is a rare syndrome characterized by painful and spontaneous purpura commonly affecting adult women, and is mostly associated with psychiatric illness. Diagnosis is mainly based on clinical presentation, exclusion of other simulating diseases, and psychiatric evaluation. Only few cases have been reported till date.

Tri-phasic fever in dengue fever.

Dengue fever is an acute febrile illness with a duration of 2-12 days. Our observational study observed the 24-h continuous tympanic temperature pattern of 15 patients with dengue fever and compared this with 26 others with fever due to a non-dengue aetiology. A tri-phasic fever pattern was seen among two-thirds of dengue fever patients, but in only one with an inflammatory disease.

Mitochondrial and nuclear gene mutations in the type 2 diabetes patients of Coimbatore population.

Involvement of mitochondrial and nuclear gene mutations in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been established well in various populations around the world. Previously, we have found the mitochondrial A>G transition at nucleotide position 3243 and 8296 in the T2D patients of Coimbatore population. This study is aimed to screen for the presence of various mitochondrial and nuclear DNA mutations in the T2D patients of Coimbatore to identify most prevalent mutation.
