Differentiated Thyroid Cancers with Synchronous Second Primary Cancers: Case Series.

The incidence of synchronous second primary cancer (SSPC) with DIfferentiated Thyroid Cancers (DTC) is a very rare entity. Very few case reports and case series were published in the literature. To enumerate the clinicopathological data of patients with DTC with SSPC.

Economic Impact of Head and Neck Cancer in India at an Individual Level and the Factors Affecting It.

Head and neck cancer is a significant public health concern in India and globally, with substantial social and economic consequences for affected individuals and their families. The study aimed to assess the socioeconomic impact of head and neck cancer. This paper presents the results of a questionnaire-based study involving 178 head and neck cancer patients who were evaluated at least two years post-completion of their treatment.

Osteosarcoma of Head and Neck Region: Tertiary Cancer Care Center Experience.

Head and neck osteosarcoma is an uncommon yet aggressive tumor which presents therapeutic challenges to get favourable results. Surgery remained the most effective treatment modality in this entity eventhough chemoradiotherapy have been tried in various studies for better outcome but still not yet becomes the standard in the management of these cases unlike in extremity osteosarcoma. We present our experience in the management of this uncommon yet lethal malignant tumor, i.

Hepatoprotective and cardioprotective effect of leaf extract on challenged broiler chicken.

is an important medicinal plant found to exhibit several medicinal properties but the use of its leaves for combating infection has not been scientifically validated in poultry. The present study was conducted to evaluate the protective effects of methanol leaf extract of (ANE) on challenged broiler chickens. Three hundred and thirty, day-old broiler chickens, were divided into 6 groups of 55 each, with group EX infected intraperitoneally (I/P) with LD dose of 1 × 10 cfu/ml of ; group(s) EA1, EA2 and EA3 infected I/P with 1 × 10 cfu/ml of and supplemented with ANE @ 0.

Pathomolecular epidemiology, antimicrobial resistance, and virulence genes of Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis isolates from slaughtered pigs in India.

Aims: We aimed to investigate the prevalence, pathology, and characterization of Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis (SDSE) in slaughtered pigs of India.

Methods And Results: We collected 1254 morbid tissues (lungs-627 and spleen-627) and 627 heart-blood from 627 slaughtered pigs.

Surgery for lung cancer: insight from a state cancer centre in India.

Purpose: Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers in India. However, less than half receive treatment with a curative intent and very few undergo surgery amongst them. We present our surgical experience with non-small cell lung cancer.

Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma: A Single Institute Experience.

Medullary thyroid carcinoma is a rare tumour that is anatomically located in the thyroid gland but is functionally a neuroendocrine tumour. It is usually a disease of older age group but manifests in a young patient in familial form. It is derived from parafollicular c cells and has a predilection for lymph node metastasis.

Mucosal Malignant Melanoma of Head and Neck: A Case Series from a Single Institute and Review of Literature Abstract.

Unlabelled: Malignant melanoma is an aggressive malignancy of melanocytes which is usually found on sun exposed areas of the body. A rare variant of this disease with no etiological association is the mucosal malignant melanoma found on all mucosal surfaces of the body including the oral cavity, respiratory mucosa and anorectal region. In the head and neck region, this disease is almost always diagnosed at an advanced stage and requires a very high index of suspicion for diagnosis.

Pathology, virulence-associated gene profiling, antimicrobial susceptibility, and pathogenicity of untypeable capsular serotypes of Pasteurella multocida isolated from slaughtered pigs of India.

Pasteurella multocida is widely distributed in all pig-rearing countries, affecting the economic viability and profitability of pig production. The present research highlights the molecular characterization and pathology of untypeable capsular serotypes of P. multocida in slaughtered pigs from prominent pig-rearing states of India.

Secretory Carcinoma of Salivary Glands: A Case Series and Review of Literature.

Mammary analogue of secretory carcinoma is a recently described entity in WHO 2017 classification of head and neck tumours. It resembles secretory carcinoma of breast. It usually affects the salivary glands and has an indolent behaviour.

Development of Hemagglutinin-Neuraminidase Homologous Peptides as Novel Promising Therapeutic Agents Against Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus.

The lack of specific antiviral therapy and complications associated with the existing peste des petits ruminants (PPR) vaccines accentuates the search of novel antiviral blocking agents in order to curtail the PPR infection at initial level. The synthetic hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) homologous peptides may compete with the natural HN protein of PPR virus for binding to signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM) receptor, consequently, may disrupt peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) at entry level. Therefore, insilico analysis, synthesis, purification and subsequent characterization of HN homologous peptides were conducted in this study.

Verification of Reference Interval of Thyroid Hormones With Manual and Automated Indirect Approaches: Comparison of Hoffman, KOSMIC and refineR Methods.

Introduction: The interpretation of quantitative test results requires the availability of appropriate reference intervals (RIs). Every laboratory has been advised by scientific literature and reagent manufacturers to establish RIs for all analytes. Measuring RIs using direct methods is very costly, and it poses ethical and practical challenges.

Mpox vaccination in global perspective: priorities and challenges.

After the global panic created by COVID-19, the monkeypox (Mpox) virus emerged as a new challenge for the world population. As of 19 January 2023, a total of 84,733 cases across 110 countries/territories including 80 deaths has been reported. The virus has been transmitted to nonendemic countries in a short span of 6 months warranting WHO to declare Mpox, a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 23 July 2022.

The long-term outcome following thoraco-amniotic shunting for congenital lung malformations.

Aim Of The Study: Insertion of a thoraco amniotic shunt (TAS) during fetal life is a therapeutic option where there is a high risk of death secondary to large congenital lung malformations (CLM). The aim of this study is to present our center's long-term experience.

Pathomorphology, immunohistochemical, and molecular detection of an atypical porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS) due to PCV-2d-2 in naturally affected grower pigs of India.

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) is of great economic significance to porcine industry worldwide. PCV-2 variants and genotypes, alternating world over, are the etiological agent of several clinical syndromes such as porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS), post-weaning multi-systemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and others in pigs. This study is reporting an atypical manifestation of PDNS in twelve grower pigs, 3- to - 4.
