AIIMS Cervical Myelopathy Score - A New Comprehensive and Objective Patient-Reported Modification of mJOA: Results of an Internal Validation Study.

Background: Several scoring systems have been developed for assessment of patients with compressive cervical myelopathy. However, all of these have some shortcomings. We proposed a new modification of the modified Japanese Orthopedic Association (mJOA) score-the AIIMS cervical myelopathy score (ACMS).

"Malignant" Craniospinal Neurocysticercosis: A Rare Case.

Background: Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is the commonest parasitic infection of the central nervous system. There is significant difference in incidence of NCC depending on geographic location, and incidence as high as 4% is reported in the endemic areas. It results from human affliction by the larval stage of Taenia solium.

Efficacy of melatonin on sleep quality after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Context: Postoperative sleep and circadian rhythm disturbances were associated with prolonged postoperative convalescence, respiratory, and cardiovascular morbidity. Sleep disturbances have been shown to be due to decreased levels of circulating melatonin after surgery. If this sleep pattern and circadian rhythm are recycled, outcome after surgery could be improved.
