Exploring the potential of telemedicine for improved primary healthcare in India: a comprehensive review.

Telemedicine is a promising solution to the challenges of delivering equitable and quality primary healthcare, especially in LMICs. This review evaluated peer-reviewed literature on telehealth interventions in Indian primary care published from Jan 1, 2011 to Dec 31, 2021, from PubMed, Scopus, TRIP, Google Scholar, Indian Kanoon, and Cochrane database The majority of Indian studies focus on key health issues like maternal and child health, mental health, diabetes, infectious diseases, and hypertension, mainly through patient education, monitoring, and diagnostics. Yet, there's a lack of research on telemedicine's cost-effectiveness, communication among providers, and the role of leadership in its quality and accessibility.

Pelvic fracture urethral injury in adolescents - Predictors of outcomes and surgical complexity.

Introduction: Pelvic fracture urethral injury (PFUI) is more severe in younger individuals. The adolescent group is prone to protracted morbidity due to severity of the injury and its impact on lifestyle. Hence, treatment options and data on outcomes are crucial in planning management.

A comparison of DAP and RENAL scoring systems in the achievement of trifecta in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.

Purpose: The concept of 'trifecta' outcome postulated for radical prostatectomy has been adopted for partial nephrectomy, the gold standard for management of small renal masses. We sought to evaluate the role of nephrometry scores in predicting outcomes in terms of the trifecta. We compared two scoring systems for renal tumour complexity (RENAL and DAP) in the prediction of trifecta outcomes.

Management of proximal migration of double-J stents after Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasty in children.

Introduction: Proximal migration of double J stents after pediatric pyeloplasty is rare. Although retrograde removal of migrated stents is more common, the small calibre of the pediatric ureter may necessitate antegrade retrieval. Many techniques are described for the same in adults however, pediatric literature is sparse.

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy in Indian children: Predictors of outcome and validation of pre-treatment nomograms.

Background: Although multiple variables have been shown to affect outcomes in pediatric lithotripsy (ESWL), there is no consensus on the same. Nomograms combine multiple variables and provide an objective prediction of outcomes. Two nomograms have been previously described and validated in two studies from the same geographical area.

Nanotechnology in Urology.

Introduction: Nanotechnology has revolutionized our approach to medical diagnostics as well as therapeutics and has spanned an entirely new branch of research. This review addresses the potential applications of Nanotechnology in Urology. This article is based on the Dr.
