Protocol for the systematic review and meta-analysis of factors associated with non-adherence to antidepressants in depressive disorders in those more than 18 years of age.

Objective: We have developed a protocol for the systematic review and meta-analysis of the factors associated with nonadherence to antidepressants in depressive patients more than 18 years of age.

Methods: We will search articles with the databases PubMed- Medline, Scopus, Embase and PsychINFO. All the published literature reporting factors associated with nonadherence to antidepressants in depressive disorders in patients more than 18 years of age and fulfilling all the eligibility criteria till October 2022 will be included.

Effects of fixatives on histomagnetic evaluation of iron in rodent spleen.

Characterizing the iron distribution in tissue sections is important for several pathologies. Iron content in excised tissue is typically analyzed via histochemical stains, which are dependent on sample preparation and staining protocols. In our recent studies, we examined how magnetic properties of iron can also be exploited to characterize iron distribution in tissue sections in a label free manner.

Modulation of biomimetic mineralization of collagen by soluble ectodomain of discoidin domain receptor 2.

Collagen fibrils serve as the major template for mineral deposits in both biologically derived and engineered tissues. In recent years certain non-collagenous proteins have been elucidated as important players in differentially modulating intra vs. extra-fibrillar mineralization of collagen.

Risk Factors For Necrotizing Fasciitis And Its Outcome At A Tertiary Care Centre.

Background: Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a serious and potentially fatal condition where there is rapid progression of inflammation of skin, subcutaneous tissue, and superficial fascia and can be mono-microbial or poly-microbial. The disease is rapidly progressive in nature and if not promptly treated leads to significant morbidity or even mortality. This study was designed to explore the various risk factors commonly present and study the outcome of the disease.

Management of Femoral Shaft Fracture in Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome with External Fixator.

Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a rare complex malformation characterized by the clinical triad of capillary malformations, soft tissue and bone hypertrophy, and venous/lymphatic malformation. Fractures of long bones in such cases are challenging to treat. A 12-year-old female with this syndrome presented with femoral shaft fracture of right thigh.
