Interconnecting surgical science, art, philosophy and technology for holistic health.

Surgery is the branch of medicine which involves correction of the diseases by means of interventions and by means of various instruments and methods. Surgery in latin is called as Chirugi and in the Indian context it is termed as 'Shalyatantra'. Surgery is the science as well as the tantra or technology.

A Prospective, Observational, Open-Label, Non-comparative, Multi-center Study for the Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of Levonadifloxacin (Intravenous and Oral) in Patients With Community-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia.

Background Community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) is associated with a substantial healthcare burden. The emergence of multi-drug resistance in  is becoming an increasing concern in the management of CABP. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of levonadifloxacin in the treatment of CABP, focusing on both oral and intravenous (IV) therapy.

One-step antifouling coating of polystyrene using engineered polypeptides.

Unwanted nonspecific adsorption caused by biomolecules influences the lifetime of biomedical devices and the sensing performance of biosensors. Previously, we have designed B-M-E triblock proteins that rapidly assemble on inorganic surfaces (gold and silica) and render those surfaces antifouling. The B-M-E triblock proteins have a surface-binding domain B, a multimerization domain M and an antifouling domain E.

A Prospective, Open-Label, Randomized, Comparative, Investigator-Initiated Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Autologous Growth Factor Concentrate Using the Healrex Therapy Kit With Standard Wound Care in Lower-Extremity Diabetic Ulcer.

Background and objectives The persistent nature of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) is mainly attributable to compromised wound healing mechanisms, which are aggravated due to poor blood flow, neuropathy, and infection. Growth factors have become essential agents in the treatment of DFUs, serving as primary mediators that enhance wound healing through the stimulation of cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis. This prospective open-label, randomised, comparative, multi-centre, investigator-initiated study compared the safety and effectiveness of adjuvant therapy with topical application of autologous growth factor concentrate (AGFC) using the Healrex therapy kit (Wockhardt, India) versus standard of care (SoC) in DFUs.

Water insecurity is associated with sugar-sweetened beverage consumption in a small-scale population in Lowland Bolivia experiencing lifestyle changes.

Background: Emerging evidence indicates water insecurity (WI) is detrimental to nutritional outcomes and dietary choices.

Objective: This study measured WI experiences alongside market and traditional sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption in a small-scale society experiencing early stages of the nutrition transition (i.e.
