Introduction: A brown tumour is benign bony lesion caused by localized, rapid osteoclastic turnover, resulting from hyperparathyroidism. In this report, we present a case of 25-year-old woman with multiple swelling and bone pain. Plain radiographs of the affected bones revealed multiple erosive bone tumours, which were diagnosed as brown tumours associated with primary hyperparathyroidism.
Case Report: A 25 year old female presented with swelling in left elbow since 1 month along with multiple swelling in body. Patient had pain in left elbow after trivial fall. X-ray showed lytic lesion of left elbow with pathological fracture. Biopsy was suggestive of brown tumour of distal humerus.
Discussion: We managed this case with reconstruction of defect with fibula grafting and plating.
Conclusion: Pathological fracture in young adult should always be properly investigated. A high index of suspicion is necessary to diagnose unusual presentation of Primary Hyperparathyroidism.

Avulsion of the triceps tendon is a rare injury accounting for less than 1% of all tendon injuries. The triceps is an extensor of the elbow and causes compromised function if left untreated. Complete ruptures should be treated with early repairs for satisfactory outcomes.

Establishing normative values and understanding how proprioception varies among body parts is crucial. However, the variability across individuals, especially adolescents, makes it difficult to establish norms. This prevents further investigation into classifying patients with abnormal proprioception.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of thermography in assessing the impact of regular physical effort on changes in the body surface temperature of the upper body parts of young racehorses. The study involved monitoring 33 racehorses aged 3 years in 3 imaging sessions over a period of 3 months. Temperature measurements of the neck and upper part of the forelimbs and hindlimbs from both sides were taken just before and after training.

Introduction: Recognizing human actions is crucial for allowing machines to understand and recognize human behavior, with applications spanning video based surveillance systems, human-robot collaboration, sports analysis systems, and entertainment. The immense diversity in human movement and appearance poses a significant challenge in this field, especially when dealing with drone-recorded (RGB) videos. Factors such as dynamic backgrounds, motion blur, occlusions, varying video capture angles, and exposure issues greatly complicate recognition tasks.
