Palliative surgery in metastatic gastric cancer: analysis (2007-2021).

Objective: Patients with metastatic gastric cancer (MGC) may require palliative surgery to manage complications such as obstruction or bleeding. While the role of stenting in MGC is clear, the role of palliative surgery in MGC shows conflicting results.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed clinical data of patients with MGC treated at our institution between January 2007 and December 2021.

Effect of obesity and hypertension on left ventricular geometry and function among asymptomatic Indian adults.

Hypertension & obesity are important independent predictors of cardiovascular morbidity & mortality specifically left ventricular (LV) functions. With the Objectives to examine the effect of obesity & hypertension on echocardiographic parameters of geometry, systolic, and diastolic functions of left ventricle in asymptomatic adults the cross-sectional study was conducted with 100 individuals (60 male & 40 female). Their Blood Pressure & Body Mass Index was recorded following which they were divided into obese normotensives & non-obese hypertensive.

Synergistic photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin under natural sunlight using hot dip galvanization and medical incineration waste residues.

To improve the photodegradation capacity, for the first time, a simple yet efficient photocatalyst was prepared by solely employing hot dip galvanization waste (GW) and fly ash (FA) disposed from medical waste incinerators. Impressively, the as-synthesized photocatalyst (GW-FA) in the ratio 3:1 displayed an outstanding ciprofloxacin degradation efficiency of 98.3% under natural sunlight within 60 min and possessed superior reusability.
