Traumatic Spinal Injury among Patients with Spinal Injuries Admitted to the Spine Unit of a Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study.

Introduction: Traumatic spinal injury is a major source of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. The number of spinal injuries is growing annually but epidemiological and demographic features may be different in different regions. This study aims to find out the prevalence of traumatic spinal injury among patients with spinal injuries admitted to the spine unit of a tertiary care centre.

Prevalence of Nerve Injuries in Supracondylar Fracture of Humerus in a Tertiary Care Hospital.

Background: Supracondylar fracture is a common childhood injury. These fractures are often associated with neural and vascular injuries. There is discrepancy in literature about the most common nerve injured in such fractures.

Weave Technique for Reconstruction of Medial Collateral Ligament and Posterior Oblique Ligament: An Anatomic Approach Using Semitendinosus Tendon.

Medial collateral ligament (MCL) is the most commonly injured ligament in knee. The majority of MCL tears can be managed conservatively, and reconstruction or augmentation is required in few selected cases. Anatomic MCL and posterior oblique ligament reconstruction have good functional outcome, but it requires 2 tunnels each in the tibia and femur, which may be a limitation in cases in which multiligament reconstruction is required.

Manipulating plant geometry to improve microclimate, grain yield, and harvest index in grain sorghum.

Cultivar selection, planting geometry, and plant population are the key factors determining grain sorghum yields in water deficit areas. The objective of this study was to investigate whether clump geometry (three plants clustered) improves microclimate within crop canopy when plants are grown under varying water levels. In a 2-yr sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.
