Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Cyclops Lesion in Patients With Non-reconstructed Anterior Cruciate Ligament.

Introduction The term cyclops lesion refers to localized anterior fibrosis, which is the abnormal proliferation of fibrous tissue in a joint that develops in the anterior aspect of the intercondylar notch. It is a known cause of extension loss of the knee after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction; however, it can be found in patients who have not undergone any surgical repair of the ACL. The term "cyclops lesion" was given based on the arthroscopic appearance of the fibrous nodule and vessels that resemble an eye.

Inguinoscrotal Hernia: An Unusual Presentation of Retroperitoneal Liposarcoma.

Liposarcoma presenting within an inguinal hernia is rare. It may manifest as either primary spermatic cord liposarcoma or as an extension of retroperitoneal liposarcoma into the inguinoscrotal region. Tumors originating in the retroperitoneum can extend toward the inguinal region through the gonadal vein pathway.

A case of leiomyosarcoma of the ovarian vein with obstructive uropathy and hepatic metastasis.

Unlabelled: Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a smooth muscle-derived malignant mesenchymal tumour. Primary LMS arising from the ovarian vein is uncommon. A 51-year-old female presented with left loin pain and was diagnosed with a LMS arising from the gonadal vein.

Myositis - A common but underreported adverse effect of osimertinib: Case series and review of the literature.

Background: Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in both men and women and the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. The development of novel tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) represented a paradigm shift in the management of lung cancer and has resulted in markedly prolonged survival. Osimertinib is a TKI that was fast-tracked by the United States Food and Drug Administration in 2015 and subsequently approved for the treatment of metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor T790M mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer.

Understanding the effect of milk composition and milking season on quality characteristics of chhana.

The quality characteristics of chhana varied due to the milk composition (cow-, buffalo-, and mixed- milk) which in turn was affected by the milking season (summer and winter). Upon heating and acidification of milk samples water holding phenomena and denatured protein association within and with other components lead to variation in both macroscale properties (color, texture, and rheology) and molecular bonding patterns (FTIR character). Yield, lightness (L* value), textural firmness, and elastic modulus of chhana increased with increasing proportion of buffalo milk in mixed milk due to higher total solids and less moisture content in both the seasons.

Hepatoprotective effect of trimethylgallic acid esters against carbon tetrachloride-induced liver injury in rats.

Gallic acid and its derivatives are potential therapeutic agents for treating various oxidative stress mediated disorders. In the present study, we investigated the hepatoprotective effects of newly synthesized conjugated trimethylgallic acid (TMGA) esters against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Animals were pre-treated with TMGA esters at their respective doses for 7 days against CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity.

Effect of trimethylgallic acid esters against chronic stress-induced anxiety-like behavior and oxidative stress in mice.

Background: Many studies have shown that the levels of oxidative stress (increased lipid peroxidation, decreased glutathione levels and endogenous antioxidant enzyme activities) and proinflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-α) are increased in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome.

Strategies for overcoming imatinib mesylate resistance in chronic myelogenous leukemia.

Imatinib mesylate was approved for the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia more than 5 years ago. This drug enabled us to put a very high percentage of patients into hematologic, cytogenetic, and molecular remission. Some patients were resistant to Imatinib from the onset of the treatment whereas others became resistant after showing an initial response to Imatinib mesylate.

Role of dynamic external fixator in the management of fractures of distal end of radius.

The intra-articular fracture of radius has been an enigma for orthopaedic surgeons since time immemorial. It is a dilemma as to when to use the fixator, when to mobilise after fixator or simply treat it by conservative means. Numerous fixators are in vogue depending on the preference of the surgeon--in the present prospective study the results of dynamic external fixator--which, based on the principle of ligamentotaxis, were evaluated over a 3-year period and the results showed that although excellent radiological results were seen in 90% of the cases yet only 75% of the cases had a excellent functional result.
