Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare mesenchymal tumors that arise from interstitial cells of Cajal. Due to vague presentation, location and confusing imaging studies, they tend to mimic gynaecological tumors. They usually diagnosed intra-operative and histopathology followed by tumor specific receptors such as KIT, CD34, CD 117 and DOG 1 are mainstay of diagnosis of GIST.

Bipolar disorder (BD) has been linked to accelerated aging processes, with many studies suggesting that drugs used to treat BD may modulate pathways related to aging. This systematic review aimed to determine whether FDA-approved pharmacotherapies for BD have reported effects on aging biomarkers across clinical and preclinical studies. We conducted searches in PubMed and PsychINFO and followed PRISMA guidelines.

Biological nitrogen fixation is a fundamental part of ecosystem functioning. Anthropogenic nitrogen deposition and climate change may, however, limit the competitive advantage of nitrogen-fixing plants, leading to reduced relative diversity of nitrogen-fixing plants. Yet, assessments of changes of nitrogen-fixing plant long-term community diversity are rare.

Objectives: The purpose of this research was to evaluate, in a tertiary care context, the effects of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection on the incidence and prognosis of oral malignancies.

Methods: At a tertiary care hospital, 100 patients who received an oral cancer diagnosis between 2020 and 2022 were the subject of a retrospective analysis. Medical records were used to gather clinicopathological data, and histopathological specimens' molecular analyses were used to ascertain the HPV infection status.

Background: Because of its high rates of morbidity and death, especially in its late stages, oral cancer poses a serious threat to world health. Even with improvements in surgical and chemotherapeutic techniques, advanced oral cancer is still difficult to treat and frequently has unfavorable results.

Methods: Information on demographics, tumor features, treatment options, and results were gathered from medical records.

Waste printed circuit boards (WPCBs) encompass abundant metals (gold, silver, and copper), along with other harmful materials including brominated epoxy resins, plastics, and heavy metals (lead, mercury, and cadmium). Direct burning and landfilling of WPCBs may cause severe health issues and impair the environment. Therefore, sustainable treatment of WPCBs is necessary to recover valuable metals and remove hazardous materials before disposal.

Oral cancer poses a significant health burden, particularly in the male population of India. This study focuses on evaluating the outcomes of 48 pedicled Pectoralis major myocutaneous (PMMC) flap reconstructions in male patients with oral malignancy. Given the challenges associated with microvascular flap reconstructions, especially in advanced cancer cases, older patients, and resource-constrained settings, the PMMC flap still serves as a valuable alternative.

Introduction: A complicated hypersensitive reaction to inhaled fungal antigens results in allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), an immunologic pulmonary disease. ABPA complicates nearly 2% of instances of persistent asthma as well as nearly 10% of chronic cases of steroid-dependent asthma, and it occurs most frequently in immunocompetent patients. The purpose of the current research was to analyze the radiological and clinical features of the participants as well as the serological association of ABPA.

Introduction: Pancreatic trauma is uncommon and challenging to diagnose. Contrarily, severe injuries to the kidney, spleen, and liver are frequent and typically easy to detect with imaging methods. Pancreas injuries can cause a significant amount of morbidity and mortality.

A primary means of conserving a species or a habitat in a human-dominated landscape is through promoting coexistence with humans while minimizing conflict. For this, we should understand how wildlife is impacted by direct and indirect human activities. Such information is rare in areas with high human densities.

Article Synopsis
  • Gelfoam has been used in middle ear surgeries for support and haemostasis, but its use may lead to fibrosis and other complications, prompting researchers to compare outcomes of tympanoplasty with and without Gelfoam.
  • The study evaluated patients undergoing tympanoplasty from August 2018 to July 2019, with Group A using Gelfoam and Group B not, examining graft uptake, hearing levels, and subjective symptoms at intervals of 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months post-surgery.
  • Results showed similar graft uptake (89% vs 84%) and hearing improvement after 6 months in both groups, with better early symptom improvement in the no-Gelfo

Introduction: In the challenging times of the COVID-19, the care of individuals with the debilitating diseases such as cancers has been an additional burden to the medical team. We aim to find out about the obstacles for the clinical care of the patients in the COVID, the questions frequently asked by cancer patients, and the medical care and support teams' general experience in taking care of cancer patients during the times of the pandemic.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a Qualtrics survey that was developed by Cancer and Aging Research Group among 275 health care providers to cancer patients during.

Background: Cosmetic defects after the major orofacial disease corrections may have an effect on the overall well-being of the patient. Head-and-neck cosmetic surgeries after a major episode of oral cancer impact the functional ability of the individual in several ways. In general, two types of flap are used in reconstructive surgery: microvascular free flaps and regional pedicle flaps.

Compound-specific stable isotope analysis of micropollutants has become an established method for the qualitative and quantitative assessment of biodegradation in the field. However, many of environmental factors may have an influence on the observed isotope fractionation. Herein, we investigate the impact of substrate concentration on the observed enrichment factor derived from Rayleigh plot of batch laboratory experiments conducted to measure the atrazine carbon isotope fractionation of Rhizobium sp.

Introduction: The management of pelvic sarcoma is challenging and goals of surgery are adequate oncologic local control, maintenance of optimum function with good quality of life.

Methods: We have evaluated the results of internal hemipelvecotmy including age, type of resection, reconstruction, radiotherapy or chemotherapy. From 2010 to 2016, 23 patients with pelvic bone tumors (13 with Ewing's sarcoma, 9 with Osteosarcoma, 1 with chondrosarcoma) were treated by surgical resection.

Primary spindle cell sarcoma of prostate is an extremely rare malignancy and very few cases of it have been reported Ozturk and Sivrikoz, 2013; Hansel and Epstein, 2006. We searched the literature through MEDLINE database using PubMed and Scopus for the articles published between January 1988 and September 2016. Our search was limited to the following keywords: "spindle cell sarcoma," "prostate," and "surgical management.
