Characterization and antibacterial evaluation of Eco-friendly silver nanoparticles synthesized by halophilic Streptomyces rochei SSCM102 isolated from mangrove sediment.

Background: Antimicrobial resistance has surged due to widespread antimicrobial drug use, prompting interest in biosynthesizing nanoparticles from marine-derived actinomycetes extracellular metabolites, valued for their diverse bioactive compounds. This approach holds promise for addressing the urgent need for novel antimicrobial agents. The current study aimed to characterize novel bioactive compounds from unexplored biodiversity hotspots, halophilic Streptomyces sp.

A rare case of closed isolated dislocation of the third metacarpophalangeal joint of the hand.

Metacarpophalangeal joint [MCP] dislocations of the index, little and thumb are common; that of the middle finger is very rare. In all the literature consulted only five cases of isolated closed dorsal dislocation of the MCP joint of the middle finger have been reported. Hyperextension of MCP joint is the mechanism of injury.

Iatrogenic Ulnar Nerve Injury post Laceration Suturing - An Unusual Presentation.

Introduction: Nerve entrapment while suturing a lacerated wound is a complication that is easily avoidable. We report a case low ulnar nerve palsy due to nerve entrapment while suturing a lacerated wound.

Case Report: A 48 year old lady came with complaints of pain and a lacerated wound over the dorsomedial aspect of lower third of the left forearm.

Chronic calcific pancreatitis presenting as an isolated left perinephric abscess: a case report and review of the literature.

Context: Acute and chronic pancreatitis may present with pseudocysts in atypical locations. Activated pancreatic enzymes track along anatomic fascial planes causing digestion of the surrounding tissues and resulting in distant pseudocysts. Pseudocysts at atypical locations pose significant diagnostic as well as therapeutic challenges.
