Efficacy of 10%,25% and 50% dextrose in the treatment of hypoglycemia in the emergency department - A randomized controlled study.

Introduction: Documented symptomatic hypoglycemia is defined as "event during which typical symptoms of hypoglycemia are accompanied by measured blood glucose of ≤70 mg/dL. Most of the studies and recommendations for the unconscious hypoglycemic adult advocate the use of 25 g of glucose as 50 mL of 50% dextrose solution intravenous or 1 mg of intramuscular glucagon.

Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of 5 g boluses of 10%, 25% and 50% dextrose in the treatment of hypoglycemic patients presenting to our emergency department.

A Comparative Study to Evaluate the Linear Dimensional Change and Compression Resistance of Four Elastomeric Interocclusal Recording Materials: An Study.

Unlabelled: The transfer of interocclusal data from the patient's mouth to articulators utilizing various types of recording media is necessary for the production of dental prostheses. Occlusal errors in the final prosthesis result from any discrepancies in these interocclusal records.

Materials And Methods: The purpose of this study was to assess the linear dimensional changes in the four elastomeric interocclusal recording materials as well as the material's resistance to compression during the cast mounting on the articulator.

Artificial intelligence in rare disease diagnosis and treatment.

Artificial intelligence (AI) utilization in health care has grown over the past few years. It also has demonstrated potential in improving the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment. Some types of AI, such as machine learning, allow for the efficient analysis of vast datasets, identifying patterns, and generating key insights.

National Early Warning Score 2 is superior to quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment in predicting mortality in sepsis patients presenting to the emergency department in India: A prospective observational study.

Background: High in-hospital mortality in sepsis patients remains challenging for clinicians worldwide. Early recognition, prognostication, and aggressive management are essential for treating septic patients. Many scores have been formulated to guide clinicians to predict the early deterioration of such patients.

Rapid Thrombolysis Protocol: Results from a Before-and-after Study.

Objective: Intravenous thrombolysis within 4.5 hours from time of onset has proven benefit in stroke. Universal standard for the door-to-needle (DTN) time is within 60 minutes from the time of arrival of patients to the emergency department.

Increased Length of Stay of Critically Ill Patients in the Emergency Department Associated with Higher In-hospital Mortality.

Objectives: Emergency department (ED) length of stay (LOS) is defined as the time a patient is registered to the time the patient is shifted to a hospital bed or discharged. Increasing demand for quality emergency care has resulted in increased wait times due to demand and supply mismatch. It is perceived that longer LOS in the ED of critical patients leads to poor outcomes.

Comparative Genomic Analysis of Reveals Horizontal Gene Transfer-Mediated Evolution of the CRISPR-Cas System in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) genes are conserved genetic elements in many prokaryotes, including , the causative agent of tuberculosis. Although knowledge of CRISPR locus variability has been utilized in strain genotyping, its evolutionary path in is not well understood. In this study, we have performed a comparative analysis of 141 mycobacterial genomes and identified the exclusive presence of the CRISPR-Cas type III-A system in complex (MTBC).

Salicylic acid induces differential antioxidant response in spring maize under high temperature stress.

High temperature is one of the important stress factors that affect crops in tropical countries. Plants do evolve or adopt different mechanisms to overcome such stress for survival. It is an interesting subject and has attracted many researchers to work upon.
