In the state of Karnataka, India, the first case of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) was diagnosed on March 9, 2020. As stated by the WHO, around 15% of COVID-19 patients require treatment in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Keeping this in mind, along with the increase in COVID-19 patients in Karnataka, it was predicted that the prevailing general wards and ICUs would be overburdened with the added non-COVID-19 diseases and infirmities. Hence, it was decided to set up a separate infrastructure to reduce the chances of transmission among the patients within the hospital. Thus, the board at SDM College of Medical Sciences & Hospital, Dharwad, Karnataka, took the responsibility to establish a fully equipped 100-bedded hospital in its premise as part of the national and state services to combat the outbreak. The aim of the study was to establish an isolated, fully functional hospital, equipped with all necessary diagnostic and critical care facilities to treat patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in North Karnataka, India.

The study explores the development and characterization of lymph node stromal cell cultures (LNSCs) from patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), highlighting the importance of understanding tumor-node cross-talk for effective prognostic and therapeutic interventions. Herein, we describe the development and characterization of primary lymph node stromal cells (LNSCs, N = 14) from nodes of metastatic and non-metastatic OSCC patients. Primary cultures were established by the explant method from positive (N + ; N = 2), and negative nodes (N0; N = 4) of the metastatic patients (N = 3) as well as negative (N0; N = 8) nodes from non-metastatic (N = 4) patients.

Neonatal sepsis is an important concern in the field of neonatology, contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality among newborns worldwide. Despite progress in medical care, the accurate diagnosis and comprehension of the pathological underpinnings of neonatal sepsis continue to present challenges. Conventional diagnostic autopsy (CDA) provides unique opportunities to gain insights into the histomorphological alterations associated with neonatal sepsis.

Oral cancer is responsible for increased mortality, especially in the Indian subcontinent. Habits like smoking and tobacco chewing are among the most common causes of oral cancer. Previously, these habits were seen mainly in the elderly; however, the trends have seemed to increase in the younger generation.

Unlabelled: We have developed novel and sustainable homogeneous catalysts employing Glutamic acid (Glu) as a biodegradable and eco-friendly organocatalyst for the synthesis of -(4-oxo-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-3(4)-yl)isonicotinamide derivatives (-) via multicomponent reactions (MCRs) of isatoic anhydride, isoniazid and heteroaromatic/aromatic aldehyde in ethanol on oil bath stirring at 60 °C. Selected final product homogeneity was examined by various spectroscopic techniques such as C-, H- NMR, FT-IR and LC-MS. For the first time, herein investigated electrochemical behavior of selected derivatives (-) using cyclic voltammetry method.
