Multidisciplinary Collaboration in Combatting Antimicrobial Resistance: Insights and Outcomes From the National Alliance of Medical Professionals on Antimicrobial Resistance (NAMP-AMR) Initiative.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical global health challenge, requiring a coordinated and vigorous response. Despite numerous global and national efforts, a unified multidisciplinary approach has been missing. The National Alliance of Medical Professionals on Antimicrobial Resistance (NAMP-AMR), led by the Indian Medical Association in collaboration with key stakeholders such as NITI Aayog and the Ministry of Health, seeks to address this gap.

Evaluation of results of various tendon transfers in high and low radial nerve palsy.

Background: Various combinations of tendon transfers are available for radial nerve palsy. However, the choice of which set of transfer to be performed in a patient remains an issue of varied opinions among surgeons. The study attempts to evaluate the results of various tendon transfers for radial nerve palsy quantitatively and subjectively.

Enchondroma Arising from Flexor Tendon Sheath of Hand: A Rare Entity.

Chondromas of soft tissue are benign and relatively rare lesions. Proper clinical examination supplemented by radiologic and histopathologic examination is necessary to diagnose this entity. This must be differentiated from malignant soft tissue neoplasm like chondrosarcoma to avoid unnecessary radical treatment.

Tendon Transfer for Persistent Radial Nerve Palsy Using Single-Split FCU Technique and Re-Routing of Extensor Pollicis Longus: A Prospective Study of 25 Cases.

Purpose: Optimal treatment of persistent radial nerve palsy is controversial. However, most authors agree that tendon transfers lead to satisfactory result in majority of patients. Triple tendon transfer using flexor carpi radialis, pronator teres, and palmaris longus is the most preferred tendon transfer.

Imaging in the diagnosis of ulnar nerve pathologies-a neoteric approach.

The ulnar nerve is a branch of the C8 and T1 nerve roots and arises from the medial cord of the brachial plexus. It supplies the intrinsic muscles of the hand and assists the median nerve in functioning of the flexors. Also known as the musician's nerve, it is the second most common nerve involved in compressive neuropathy following the median nerve.

Correction to: A panorama of radial nerve pathologies- an imaging diagnosis: a step ahead.

The original article [1] contained an omission in authorship detail; authors Aakanksha Agarwal and Abhishek Chandra are instead joint first authors.

A panorama of radial nerve pathologies- an imaging diagnosis: a step ahead.

The radial nerve has a long and tortuous course in the upper limb. Injury to the nerve can occur due to a multitude of causes at many potential sites along its course. The most common site of involvement is in the proximal forearm affecting the posterior interosseous branch while the main branch of the radial nerve is injured in fractures of the humeral shaft.

Retrospective Analysis of Giant Cell Tumor Lower End Radius Treated with Excision and Translocation of Ulna.

Background: Distal end of radius is third most common site for GCT of long bones and 1% of these metastasize mostly to lungs. Reconstruction methods commonly used are fibula (vascularized and nonvascularized), centralization of ulna, translocation of ulna, and endoprosthetic replacement. We report the outcome of series of twenty cases where we did excision of tumor with translocation of ulna.

Rare Giant Cell Tumor of Olecranon Bone!!!!

Introduction: Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a bone tumor involving epiphyseal area of bone abutting the subchondral bone. Commonly found in long bones such as proximal tibia and distal femur. We report a case of GCT of olecranon bone in a 23-year-old male.

What impedes working in rural areas? A study of aspiring doctors in the National Capital Region, India.

Introduction: The rural health system in India has long been disadvantaged by a shortage of health staff, including doctors. Providing medical students with a rural clinical placement has been suggested as one strategy to overcome this shortage. This study examined the attitudes of and inclination to rural healthcare careers among medical students.

Radial nerve entrapement in osseous tunnel without clinical symptoms.

Entrapment of a nerve in the callus of a healing fracture is not a common entity, but it does exist. The entrapment usually presents without neurological deficit. It is difficult to suspect the radial nerve injury if we need to operate on the same site.

Outcome of early active mobilization after flexor tendons repair in zones II-V in hand.

Background: The functional outcome of a flexor tendon injury after repair depends on multiple factors. The postoperative management of tendon injuries has paved a sea through many mobilization protocols. The improved understanding of splinting techniques has promoted the understanding and implication of these mobilization protocols.

Distraction histiogenesis for treatment of Kienbock's disease: A 2- to 8-year follow-up.

Background: Distraction histiogenesis is known to enhance vascularity and stimulate new tissue formation. Its use in Kienbock's disease is not reported in the literature, so we proposed to study the outcome after distraction histiogenesis in treating this condition.

Materials And Methods: This prospective study comprised of six patients (two male and four female) with mean age 18.

Management of radial clubhand with gradual distraction followed by centralization.

Background: Treatment of radial clubhand has progressed over the years from no treatment to aggressive surgical correction. Various surgical methods of correction have been described; Centralization of the carpus over the distal end of the ulna has become the method of choice. Corrective casting prior to centralization is an easy and effective method of obtaining soft tissue stretching before any definitive procedure is undertaken.

Outcome of early active mobilization after extensor tendon repair.

Background: Traditionally the repaired extensor tendons have been treated postoperatively in static splints for several weeks, leading to formation of adhesions and prolonged rehabilitation. Early mobilization using dynamic splints is common, but associated with many shortcomings. We attempted to study the results of early active mobilization, using a simple static splint, and easy-to-follow rehabilitation plan.
