Effect of Yoga Intervention on Inflammatory Biomarkers among Women with Breast Cancer - A Systematic Review.

Background: Inflammatory markers play a substantial role in the prognosis of breast cancer (BC). Studies have been conducted, evaluating the effect of yoga intervention (YI) on inflammatory biomarkers among BC cases. This systematic review consolidates the outcome of YI in the cancer microenvironment.

Pooled Prevalence of Long COVID-19 Symptoms at 12 Months and Above Follow-Up Period: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Current data suggests that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) survivors experience long-lasting problems. It is not yet understood how long these symptoms last. The goal of this study was to compile all the data that was currently available to evaluate COVID-19's long-term effects at 12 months and above.

Comparative Metabolomic Profiling of Horse Gram ( (Lam.) Verdc.) Genotypes for Horse Gram Yellow Mosaic Virus Resistance.

Horse gram ( (Lam.) Verdc.) is an under-utilized legume grown in India.

Development and characterization of gamma ray and EMS induced mutants for powdery mildew resistance in blackgram.

Purpose: During post-rainy and rice fallow cropping seasons, popular blackgram varieties are severely affected by powdery mildew leading to severe yield loss. The lack of natural genetic variability for powdery mildew resistance in blackgram germplasm warrants mutation breeding. Hence, in this study, blackgram cultivar CO6 was mutagenized with gamma ray and ethyl methanesulphonate (EMS) to create variability for powdery mildew resistance.

Effectiveness of Extended Infection Control Measures on Methicillin-Resistant Infection Among Orthopaedic Patients.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to find the effectiveness of Extended Infection Control Measures (EICM) in reducing the rate of methicillin-resistant (MRSA) infection among orthopaedic surgery patients.

Methods: The study adopted a quasi-experimental design and was conducted in the orthopaedic units of a tertiary care hospital. This study recruited 168 orthopaedic patients and 154 healthcare professionals (HCPs).

The prevalence of COVID vaccine acceptance among pregnant women: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

COVID pandemic has massively hit every nook of the world. Millions of people were infected and lost their lives to the deadly pandemic. This novel virus destroyed the essential healthcare service globally.

Barriers for Early Detection of Breast Cancer among South Indian Women.

Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common neoplasms in women across the world. Early diagnosis of breast cancer results in reduced morbidity, mortality, and improved quality of life.

Objective: This study was conducted to identify the barriers among Indian women diagnosed with breast cancer in an advanced stage.

Subclinical myocardial injury, coagulopathy, and inflammation in COVID-19: A meta-analysis of 41,013 hospitalized patients.

Background: Infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus can lead to myocardial injury, evidenced by increases in specific biomarkers and imaging.

Objective: To quantify the association between biomarkers of myocardial injury, coagulation, and severe COVID-19 and death in hospitalized patients.

Methods: Studies were identified through a systematic search of indexed articles in PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane, Web of Science, and Scopus, published between December 2019 to August 2021.

Organochlorine Pesticide Tissue Levels in Benign and Malignant Breast Disease: A Comparative Exploratory Study.

Exposure to organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) may be a risk factor for breast cancer (BC). Their role may be more relevant in developing countries such as India, where an abundance of these products is used for agricultural purposes. The present study compares OCP tissue levels in patients who underwent BC surgery (group A) or patients who had surgery for excision of breast fibroadenoma (group B).

The diagnostic role of microRNA 21 in patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer: An exploratory study.

Background: Although histopathological examination of the biopsy specimen is the gold standard for the diagnosis of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), a blood-based noninvasive test (liquid biopsy) may prove to be helpful in patients with repeatedly negative biopsy or for response assessment following neoadjuvant therapy. The present study was conducted to explore the diagnostic value of circulating serum microRNA (miRNA) 21 in patients with NSCLC.

Methods: This case-control analytical study was carried out in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Northern India.

MRSA: the leading pathogen of orthopedic infection in a tertiary care hospital, South India.

Background: The rate of infection is high and heterogeneous in developing countries. This study aimed to find the rate and pattern of infection in a tertiary care hospital with a goal to improve the infection control practices.

Methods: The study was conducted in the orthopedic units of a multispecialty teaching hospital.

Immunomodulatory properties of titanium dioxide nanostructural materials.

Objectives: Although titanium dioxide (TiO) nanostructural materials have been widely used in Biology and Medicine, very little is known about immunomodulation mechanism of these materials. Objectives of this study are to investigate immunomodulatory effects of TiO. Immunosuppressant may lower immune responses and are helpful for the treatment of graft versus host diseases and autoimmune disorders.

γδ T Cell-Mediated Immune Responses in Disease and Therapy.

The role of γδ T cells in immunotherapy has gained specific importance in the recent years because of their prominent function involving directly or indirectly in the rehabilitation of the diseases. γδ T cells represent a minor population of T cells that express a distinct T cell receptor (TCR) composed of γδ chains instead of αβ chains. Unlike αβ T cells, γδ T cells display a restricted TCR repertoire and recognize mostly unknown non-peptide antigens.

Ovarian cancer biology and immunotherapy.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal malignancy of the female reproductive system and the fifth leading cause of cancer death in women. In the year 2012 alone, United States had 22,280 new ovarian cancer cases and 15,500 deaths were reported. About 7%-10% of ovarian cancers result from an inherited tendency to develop the disease.

Root coverage in class I gingival recession defects, combining rotated papillary pedicle graft and coronally repositioned flap, using a micro surgical approach: A clinical evaluation.

Background: The purpose of this case study was to evaluate the success and predictability of a rotated papillary pedicle graft in combination with the coronally advanced flap using surgical loupe (2.5X magnification) for the treatment of Miller's class I gingival recession.

Materials And Methods: Fifteen systemically healthy patients with isolated gingival recession underwent the procedure.
