Multidimensional risk assessment of marine litter pollution in the ecologically fragile coral atolls of India.

Marine litter (ML), predominantly plastic, threatens oceanic biodiversity and ecosystem functioning globally. However, limited knowledge exists about its impact on India's coastal areas, particularly the Lakshadweep Islands, the nation's sole coral atolls. Within this frame of reference, the present study comprehensively investigated the distribution, abundance, typology, and ecological risks associated with ML across 28 beaches and three lagoon reef stations on Kavaratti Island.

Exploring the Dynamics of Asparagus racemosus Phytochemicals as Dual Target Inhibitors of Monkeypox Virus.

Aim: This study aimed to screen the potential phytochemicals derived from Asparagus racemosus (Shatavari) against Thymidylate Kinase (TMPK) and D9 decapping enzyme, which is the vital target of the monkeypox virus and helps in the host-- pathogen interaction mechanism, using integrated docking, QSAR analysis, and a molecular dynamics approach.

Background: The Monkeypox Virus (MPXV) is a recently emerging outbreak with ongoing infection cases. Drugs and vaccines for smallpox are being used to contain it.

Hiatal sling liver retraction technique in bariatric and upper gastrointestinal surgeries - Our 15 year experience with 1874 surgeries.

Various liver retraction methods are available and have been tried. Here, we present our experience with our indigenous hiatal sling technique for liver retraction and compare it with Nathanson liver retractor which is a popular and commonly used liver retraction method.

Long-term outcomes of women compared to men after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting-a propensity-matched analysis.

Background: Literature is not clear whether women experience increased mortality and adverse events after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Studies have shown that women had comparative outcomes to men in off-pump CABG (OPCAB). Hence, we undertook this study to understand the short- and long-term outcomes of women compared to men after OPCAB.
