Successful Surgical Repair of Complete Pentalogy of Cantrell.

Pentalogy of Cantrell (PC) presents a distinctive challenge for clinicians and surgeons. In this case report, we have discussed the presentation, management, and literature review of a case of PC in a 17-month-old female child. The child was successfully managed with single-stage operation by a multidisciplinary team without any postoperative complications.

Mesoporous calcium hydroxide nanoparticle synthesis from waste bivalve clamshells and evaluation of its adsorptive potential for the removal of Acid Blue 113 dye.

Calcium hydroxide nanoadsorbent was prepared from waste bivalve clamshells and used for the adsorptive removal of Acid Blue 113 (AB113) dye. The morphology, elemental nature, functional groups, and thermal stability of the nanoadsorbent were characterized by various methods. The nanoadsorbent had a high monolayer adsorption capacity (153.

Adsorptive removal of AB113 dye using green synthesized hydroxyapatite/magnetite nanocomposite.

In the present study, magnetite nanoparticles (FeONPs) synthesized using Thunbergia grandiflora leaf extract as a reducing agent were doped with hydroxyapatite sourced from waste bivalve clamshells to produce hydroxyapatite/magnetite nanocomposite (HA/FeONPs). The magnetic nanocomposite was examined using several characterization techniques. The results of XRD and FESEM, analysis showed HA/FeONPs have a crystalline phase and irregular spherical particles respectively.

A review on adsorptive removal of dyes from wastewater by hydroxyapatite nanocomposites.

Dye removal from wastewater is of prominence due to its hostile effects on human health and the environment. The complex structure of the dye molecule is responsible for its difficulty in removal. Adsorption is found to be a promising technique to eliminate dye wastes due to its high removal capacity at low concentration.

Accuracy of Intraoperative Epicardial Echocardiography in the Assessment of Surgical Repair of Congenital Heart Defects confirmed.

Objective: To determine the accuracy of epicardial echocardiography in detecting residual lesions after surgical repair of congenital heart defects. To determine the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive valve, negative predictive valve, and false negative and false positive percentage of the same.

Materials And Methods: One year hospital-based prospective study of epicardial echocardiography in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass for surgical correction of congenital heart defects in children and adults.
