A Study on Outcome of Conservative Management of Shaft Humerus Fracture: A Case Report.

Introduction: Conservative or surgical treatment options are available for humeral shaft fractures. To pinpoint individuals who would benefit from early surgical fixation, fracture characteristics were examined. In conservative treatment, the "U" slab prevents displacement, and overriding is corrected by gravity while the patient continues to move about.

Revision/Conversion Surgeries After One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass-An Experts' Modified Delphi Consensus.

Purpose: There is a lack of evidence for treatment of some conditions including complication management, suboptimal initial weight loss, recurrent weight gain, or worsening of a significant obesity complication after one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). This study was designed to respond to the existing lack of agreement and to provide a valuable resource for clinicians by employing an expert-modified Delphi consensus method.

Methods: Forty-eight recognized bariatric surgeons from 28 countries participated in the modified Delphi consensus to vote on 64 statements in two rounds.

Efficacy and safety of liraglutide in Indian adolescents with obesity.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of liraglutide in adolescents with obesity.

Materials And Methods: Patients ( = 41) received injection liraglutide for at least 12 weeks and their pre-baseline and post-baseline characteristics were recorded and analysed. The key parameters analysed were weight, height, body mass index (BMI), fasting insulin and sugar, 1 h insulin and glucose, 2 h insulin and glucose, HbA1c, cholesterol, triglycerides, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, thyroid stimulating hormone and bone.

Analysis of the regulation pathways via microarray and miRNA studies: human embryonic stem cells to treat diabetes mellitus type-II.

Diabetes mellitus occurs either due to an autoimmune destruction of β cells (Type 1) or resistance to insulin effects (Type 2). Diverse conventional medications are used for treatment of diabetes, which is associated with long term complications such as kidney failure, blindness, and stroke. We recently showed the potential of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in 95 patients with type 2 diabetes.

Human embryonic stem cell therapy for aplastic anemia.

Human embryonic stem cell (hESC) therapy is the potential therapeutic option for the treatment of patients with aplastic anemia (AA). The study showed a remarkable improvement in the AA patient subsequent to hESC administration. No adverse events occurred in the patient.

Linezolid-resistant mucoid Staphylococcus haemolyticus from a tertiary-care centre in Delhi.

We report an unusual morphological mucoid variant of Staphylococcus haemolyticus associated with linezolid resistance from a patient with sepsis. Linezolid resistance and mucoid character together made this pathogen difficult to treat. To our knowledge this is the first such report.

Osteoporosis in Indians.

Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mass with micro architectural deterioration of bone tissue leading to enhance bone fragility, thus increasing the susceptibility to fracture. Although exact numbers are not available, based on available data and clinical experience, on estimated 25 million Indians may be affected. Osteoporotic fractures in India occur commonly in both sexes, and may occur at a younger age than in the West.
