Resolving Secondary Infertility: A Case Report of the Successful Treatment of Sperm DNA Fragmentation Through the Physiological Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection Method.

This case report presents an illustrative account of a couple experiencing secondary infertility attributed to the fragmentation of DNA in sperm. Secondary infertility, the inability to conceive after having previously successfully conceived a child, can be due to various factors, including male infertility issues. Sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF) has emerged as a major factor influencing male fertility, resulting in poor embryo development and lower pregnancy rates.

Adolescent Sexual Behavior in Rural Central India: Challenges and Interventions.

Adolescence is a crucial life stage marked by significant physical, psychological, and societal changes. With India projected to have the highest population of teenagers by 2025, understanding adolescent sexual behavior in rural central India is essential due to its unique social and cultural contexts.

Revolutionizing Medical Microbiology: How Molecular and Genomic Approaches Are Changing Diagnostic Techniques.

Molecular and genomic approaches have revolutionized medical microbiology by offering faster and more accurate diagnostic techniques for infectious diseases. Traditional methods, which include culturing microbes and biochemical testing, are time-consuming and may not detect antibiotic-resistant strains. In contrast, molecular and genomic methods, including polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based techniques and whole-genome sequencing, provide rapid and precise detection of pathogens, early-stage diseases, and antibiotic-resistant strains.

Emerging and Re-Emerging Viral Infections: An Indian Perspective.

Emerging and re-emerging viral infections pose a constant threat, especially in healthcare settings. Viral infections can be thought of as an ecological system, like a forest or a pond, with different species competing for resources. Pandemics tend to occur when there is a disruption to this ecosystem, such as introducing a strain of virus into humans or animals that they have no immunity against.
