Incidental left paraaortic mass in a patient with gall bladder adenocarcinoma: A diagnostic challenge.

Incidental adrenal masses are frequently detected due to the extensive use of cross-sectional imaging, with about 3% to 7% of adults estimated to have them. Paragangliomas and pheochromocytomas (PPGL), rare tumors originating from paraganglia tissues, including the adrenal medulla, continue to be imaging mimics, necessitating a multimodal approach for accurate diagnosis. We report a case of 72-years male presenting with intermittent pain abdomen for the past 1 year.

Incidental imaging detection of Kartagener syndrome in a female: A case report.

Kartagener syndrome is a rare ciliopathic genetic disorder characterized by a triad of chronic sinusitis, situs inversus, and bronchiectasis. The underlying pathophysiology involves reduced ciliary motility due to defects in ciliary structure and function within the respiratory tract and fallopian tubes. Diagnosis is typically confirmed through imaging studies such as X-rays, CT scans, and echocardiograms, which reveal the abnormal orientation of the heart and other organs.

Health economic evaluation alongside randomised clinical trial of a health behaviour intervention to manage type 2 diabetes in Nepal.

Background: Prevention of type 2 diabetes is becoming an urgent public health concern in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, there is currently no evidence of a cost-effective approach of health behaviour interventions from community settings in low-income countries like Nepal. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the within-trial economic evaluation of a health behaviour intervention compared with usual care for managing type 2 diabetes in a community setting in Nepal.

Unveiling the anomaly: Scimitar syndrome in a middle-aged female patient.

Hypogenetic lung syndrome, commonly known as Scimitar syndrome, is a rare cardiopulmonary anomaly characterized primarily by anomalous pulmonary venous return and lung hypoplasia. While it is most frequently diagnosed in infancy or early childhood, cases in adulthood are exceedingly rare. We present a case of a middle-aged female who was diagnosed with Scimitar syndrome.

Exploration of drug therapy related problems in a general medicine ward of a tertiary care hospital of Eastern Nepal.

Background: Inpatients are at higher risk of Drug Therapy Related Problems (DTRPs), and early identification and management of these DTRPs is crucial for optimal treatment outcomes and ensuring rational drug therapy.

Objective: This study aims to assess DTRPs in a general medicine ward of a tertiary care hospital in eastern Nepal.

Methods: A three-month prospective observational study was conducted on inpatients admitted to the general medicine ward of the hospital.
