Extra-ocular sebaceous carcinoma - A rare case report.

Sebaceous gland carcinoma is a rare and aggressive skin cancer derived from the sebaceous glands. Sebaceous carcinomas are divided into those occurring in ocular (75%) and extra-ocular locations. A 45-year-old female patient presented with rapidly growing swelling over the upper back region.

Fungal infection mimicking soft tissue lesion: Role of on-site evaluation, special stain, and cellblock.

Background: Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology is a basic diagnostic method used for the investigation of superficial and deep lesions. The implementation of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) in cytological analysis can help in reducing the inadequacy rate and obtaining proper samples for further tests/analysis.

Case Presentation: We report a case of 44-year-old male, who presented to our outpatient department with complaints of swelling in his right arm for the last 34 years.

Minimally invasive surgery in India during the COVID-19 pandemic: A survey.

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has posed an unprecedented challenge to the healthcare systems worldwide. This uncharted territory has changed the practices in modern healthcare delivery; this is particularly true in the case of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) where various changes are being adopted. This survey was conducted to determine the impact of the pandemic and the changes being adopted in the field of MIS, from a resource-limited developing country, India.

Recent Developments in the Chemistry of Pn(I) (Pn=N, P, As, Sb, Bi) Cations.

The Group 15 Pn(I) cations (Pn=N, P, As, Sb and Bi), which are isoelectronic with the donor-stabilized carbones, have emerged recently. Despite the presence of two lone pair of electrons, the Pn(I) cations are weakly nucleophilic due to their inherent positive charge. Strongly electron-donating supporting ligands including zwitterionic forms have been used to enhance their Lewis basicity.

A survey of E-learning methods in nursing and medical education during COVID-19 pandemic in India.

Background: COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated mandatory e-learning in medical and nursing education. How far are developing countries like India (with wide socioeconomic and cultural diversity) geared up for this challenge remains unexplored. At this critical juncture, we aim to evaluate if online teaching methods are as feasible, acceptable, and effective as in-class teaching for medical/nursing students.
