Carbon Monoxide in Healthcare Monitoring Balancing Potential and Challenges in Public Health Perspective: A Narrative Review.

Carbon monoxide (CO) has medicinal potential and harmful qualities. However, excessive exposure to CO can lead to severe organ failure. CO is exogenously and endogenously generated within the human body.

Deciphering genetic diversity phylogeny and assembly of species through micro satellite markers on nuclear DNA.

The genus is the most diverse, with cultivated crops such as onion, garlic, bunching onion, chives, leeks, and shallots, and several wild and semi-domesticated species utilized as minor vegetables. These minor species are the genetic resources for various abiotic and biotic stresses. To employ underutilized species in breeding programmes, the magnitude of the genetic background of cultivated and semi-domesticated alliums, the phylogeny and diversity of the population must be known.

Torsion of Epididymal Cyst: A Case Report With Review of Literature.

Torsion of an epididymal cyst is one of the rare and least-known causes of acute scrotal pain. Epididymal cysts, when large, can undergo occasional complications like infection or, rarely they might undergo torsion, needing emergency surgery. We present a case of a 37-year-old gentleman with acute scrotal pain to the scrotum.

A simple technique of meibography for morphological and functional evaluation of meibomian glands in dry eye conditions.

Purpose: Dry eye disease (DED) is because of a decrease in the tear film's volume or a change in the composition of tears. Evaporative dry eye is the most common type, which is due to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). In this study, the morphology of meibomian glands was evaluated in all kinds of dry eyes to look for any loss of meibomian glands, assess the function of remaining glands, and investigate the relationship between anatomy, function, and severity of DED.

A Comparative Evaluation of Post-operative Pain Management Using Erector Spinae Plane Block and Oblique Transverse Abdominis Plane Block in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy.

Introduction Acute pain following laparoscopic surgeries interferes with the rehabilitation of the patient. Knowledge about the pain pathway from a particular area helps in blocking pain transmission at different sites. Ultrasonography (USG)-guided peripheral nerve blocks help in controlling pain better than non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) and opioids since they directly act by interrupting the pain pathway and interfere less with the physiology of the body.

CD4 + Count: a Variable to Be Considered to Prioritize COVID-19 Vaccination in PLHIV.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 propagates, pressurizing the healthcare system by emphasizing and worsening the inequities. While many vaccines have shown excellent efficacy in protecting the general public from the COVID-19 infection, the efficacy of these vaccines for people living with HIV (PLHIV), especially those having a different range of CD4 + T-cell, has yet to be thoroughly investigated. Few studies have uncovered the escalated infection and death rates due to the COVID-19 infection in individuals with low CD4 + T-cells.

Mucormycosis: A triple burden in patients with diabetes during COVID-19 Pandemic.

With the upsurge in the cases of COVID-19 around the world, plenty of potential COVID-19 complications are becoming more prevalent, including a higher risk of secondary bacterial and fungal infections. Mucormycosis is one such condition which has high prevalence among individuals with diabetes who were infected with COVID-19.The usage of steroids in the treatment further inflates the risk of infection and exacerbation of disease in pre-existent mucormycosis patients.
