Methods This study employed a phenomenological exploratory qualitative research design among 32 nursing students from various academic levels.

Corneal neurotization in the management of neurotrophic keratopathy: A review of the literature.

Neurotrophic keratopathy (NK) is a rare degenerative disease in which damage to the corneal nerves leads to corneal hypoesthesia or anesthesia. Neurotrophic corneal ulcers are notoriously difficult to treat and can lead to blindness. Corneal neurotization (CN) is a recent surgical technique aimed at restoring corneal sensation and may offer a definitive treatment in the wake of NK.

The aim of this brief research was to present an update of all cancer incidences through age-adjusted rates and their changes in different regions of the country. The data for this study were obtained from published reports of 28 population-based cancer registries (2005-2014) in India.

Efficacy of Virtual Reality in Upper Limb Rehabilitation in Patients with Spinal Cord Injury: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.

Study Design: Pilot randomized controlled trial.

Purpose: To compare the efficacy between virtual reality intervention (using Nintendo Wii) along with conventional occupational therapy and conventional occupational therapy alone in improving upper limb function in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).

Overview Of Literature: The use of virtual reality has gained importance in the rehabilitation sector over the last few years.

Association of Smokeless Tobacco Use and Oral Cancer: A Systematic Global Review and Meta-Analysis.

Introduction: Smokeless tobacco products have been linked to precancerous and cancers of oral cavity for long. Evidence was available on the association between smokeless tobacco (SLT) products and oral cancers at regional but not at global level. Present meta-analysis is aimed to evaluate the risk of oral cancer with the use of SLT products among "ever" versus "never" users.

Knowledge, Awareness and Attitude on HPV, HPV Vaccine and Cervical Cancer among the College Students in India.

Background: Infection of specific high risk Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) is known to cause cervical cancer and two prophylactic vaccines have been developed against two major high risk HPV types 16 and 18 for prevention of cervical cancer. Because of societal, religious and ethical issues associated with the vaccination of adolescent girls in India together with lack of awareness about HPV and HPV vaccines, no successful HPV immunization program has been employed in India.

Objective: To determine knowledge, awareness and attitude of college students on HPV, HPV vaccine and cervical cancer.

Age-specific performance of careHPV versus Papanicolaou and visual inspection of cervix with acetic acid testing in a primary cervical cancer screening.

Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is recommended as a primary screening tool for cervical screening. Assessment of age-specific performance of newer HPV careHPV DNA testing is important as risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) varies at different ages. We aim to evaluate careHPV in comparison to Papanicolaou (Pap) test and visual inspection of the cervix with acetic acid (VIA) cervical screening tests for the detection of high-grade CIN.

Adjunct screening of cervical or vaginal samples using careHPV testing with Pap and aided visual inspection for detecting high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.

Objective: To evaluate the performance of careHPV DNA testing for human papillomavirus (HPV) on cervical and vaginal samples (CHPV and VHPV respectively) in adjunct screening together with visual inspection of the cervix by acetic acid (VIA) or Papanicolaou (Pap) tests in the detection of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN).

Subjects And Methods: A cross-sectional study examined 4658 women 30-59 years of age by performing screening tests for HPV using careHPV on cervical and vaginal samples together with Pap and VIA. The CHPV and VHPV test results were presented as a ratio of viral load expressed in relative light units (RLUs) to the mean RLU from a positive control set at 1 pg/mL cut-off (CO).

Three Arab children with neonatal brucellosis are described. The first presented with late neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia, the second with a septicoemia-like picture and the third was born prematurely and presented with respiratory distress. The diagnosis of brucellosis was based on a positive blood culture and on a high or rising titre of antibodies to the Brucella organism.
