Genetic diversity and population structure analysis of Indian blackberry (Syzygium cumini L.) using CAAT box‑derived polymorphism (CBDP) and start codon targeted polymorphism (SCoT) markers.

Indian blackberry (Syzygium cumini L.) also known as jamun is a very important underutilized fruit crop with notable medicinal and economic value. However, its genetic improvement has been constrained by limited knowledge of the genetic diversity within existing collections.

Short-Term Outcomes Using a Novel Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Keratotomy Nomogram to Manage Corneal Astigmatism During Phacoemulsification.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of a femtosecond laser assisted astigmatic keratotomy (AK) nomogram (FemtoAK.com) for correction of astigmatism during cataract surgery.

Patients And Methods: Consecutive patients underwent cataract extraction with AKs and insertion of a non-toric intraocular lens.

Exploring Influence of Spiritual Well-being on Caregiver Burden in Head-and-Neck Malignancy: A Cross-sectional Study.

Objectives: Taking care of a patient with head-and-neck malignancy (HNM) entails enormous physical, emotional, cognitive and moral challenges. Caregivers frequently turn to spiritual practices such as prayer, offering and meditation to enhance inner strength and coping ability. Assessment of caregiver burden (CGB) would remain incomplete without considering spiritual well-being (SWB).

Comparison of seven models for the progression patterns of multiple chronic conditions in longitudinal studies.

Introduction: Studies investigating the relationship between patterns of multimorbidity and risk of a new condition have typically defined the patterns at a baseline time and used Kaplan-Meier (KM) or Cox proportional hazards regression. These methods do not consider the competing risk of death or the changes in the patterns of conditions over time. This study illustrates how these methodological limitations can be overcome in the setting of progression from cardiometabolic conditions to dementia.

Two-decade health-related quality of life and performance on physical function tests in mid-aged women: Findings from a prospective cohort study.

Background: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is more commonly measured in younger populations than objective physical function tests. However, associations between HRQoL and the performance on physical function tests are unclear.

Objectives: To investigate the association between HRQoL measures across adulthood and performance on physical function tests in mid-aged women.
