"Knowing It Before Blocking It," the ABCD of the Peripheral Nerves: Part C (Prevention of Nerve Injuries).

"A clever person solves the problem. A wise person avoids it" (Albert Einstein). There is no convincing evidence that any modality 100% effectively prevents nerve injury.

Effect of ultrasonication on emulsion formulation, encapsulation efficiency, and oxidative stability of spray dried chia seed oil.

Present study was conducted to develop a stable chia oil emulsion using an ultrasound emulsification technique. Whey protein concentrate, gum Arabic, and xanthan gum stabilized layer by layer chia oil emulsion was developed using an electrostatic deposition. Single-layer and multilayer emulsion of chia oil was developed and their stability is compared.

Optimization of process parameters for the development of gluten free extruded breakfast cereal based on Quinoa, finger millet and red rice using RSM.

Current research aims to evaluate the effect of high shear extrusion on quinoa, finger millet, and red rice composite flour-based breakfast cereal using response surface methodology with extruder barrel temperature (120-130 °C), screw speed (320-350 rpm) and feed moisture content (10-20 g/100 g) as independent variables. Product responses were fitted on to mathematical model using second-order polynomial equations. Multiple regression analysis of data revealed the high statistical significance of respective mathematical models.

Coping With the Fear of Compartment Syndrome Without Compromising Analgesia: A Narrative Review.

Pain management in trauma or surgery with a high risk of developing compartment syndrome (CS) is always challenging due to fears of masking symptoms that could delay diagnosis and treatment. Regional anesthesia/analgesia (RA) can facilitate enhanced postoperative recovery and improve patient satisfaction by providing excellent postoperative analgesia. However, its consideration in surgeries with a high risk of developing CS remains controversial and contentious.

Preemptive pericapsular nerve group block to facilitate sitting position for neuraxial anesthesia in patients with acetabular fractures: A case series.

Acetabular fractures are uncommon types of pelvic fractures associated with restricted mobility due to severe pain. The high analgesic demands can be fulfilled by using multimodal analgesia incorporating regional analgesia. The choice of regional analgesia technique depends on the type of acetabular fracture and innervation of the affected components.

Anatomical and Technical Considerations of the Hi-PAC (Hi-Volume Proximal Adductor Canal) Block: A Novel Motor-Sparing Regional Analgesia Technique for Below-Knee Surgeries.

Below-knee surgeries are among the most commonly performed orthopedic or plastic and reconstructive procedures. They are associated with significant postoperative pain despite the use of systemic analgesics. The regional analgesia (RA) technique has been proven beneficial for better patient outcomes when used as an adjunct to multimodal analgesia in the early postoperative period.

Dietary antioxidant activities in different germplasms of Mucuna.

Mucuna pruriens, an underutilized native legume of South India has been reported to have high levels of L-Dopa, and used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Cellular damage arising from reactive oxygen and nitrogen species is said to cause neurodegenerative disorders. Antioxidants could assuage this oxidative damage of tissue directly and/or indirectly by enhancing natural defenses and also scavenging the free radicals.
