Identification of Middle Mesial Canal in Mandibular Molars Using Five Different Techniques: An Study.

Aim: The purpose of the study was to find out the incidence of the middle mesial canal in mandibular molars by using five different techniques.

Materials And Methods: A total of 150 extracted human mandibular first molars were selected, and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were taken. Then, conventional access cavities were made, followed by troughing under dental loupes (3X), and were also examined under a dental operating microscope (DOM) (6X).

Correlation of Follicle-stimulating Hormone, Anti-Mullerian Hormone, and Antral Follicle Count with Age in Ovarian Reserve Testing.

Objective: Ovarian reserve and hence ovarian response has a key role in assisted reproductive technology and predicting response to gonadotrophins in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation. Various tools, namely follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), antral follicle count (AFC), estradiol, etc., have been studied to discover the best determinant of ovarian reserve.

Psychosocial perception of health-care workers in a COVID-19-designated hospital in eastern India.

Background: COVID-19 pandemic has changed the life of people in many facets, economic, social, and psychological. Frontline health-care workers (HCWs) fighting against this pandemic faced some psychological as well as social issues which are of major concern. The objective of the study is to evaluate the magnitude of mental health problems, namely depression, anxiety, and stress among frontline HCWs as well as their perception on ongoing events and surroundings.

Evaluation of antenatal services at Family welfare Centre under RMNCH+A Programme in Delhi.

Background: According to WHO, 536,000 women die every year in the world from causes relating to pregnancy, childbirth, or postpartum. Ninety nine percent of these deaths occur in the developing countries. Primary health centres (in densely populated areas and in urban slums are also referred to as family welfare centres, since they provide the whole continuum of care, from birth through adolescent and delivery and thereafter.

Role of image-guided fine needle aspiration cytology of lung lesions in diagnosis and primary care of patients: Experience in a Government Medical College of Eastern India.

Context: Lung cancer is the most common cancer affecting males worldwide. Its incidence in females is also on an increasing trend. Other conditions affecting lung-like tuberculosis are on a rise in middle-east countries due to overcrowding and poor living conditions.

Posterior capsular rent: Prevention and management.

This review article deals with a potentially sight threatening complication - rupture of the posterior capsule - during cataract surgery. Cataract surgery is the most commonly performed surgical procedure in ophthalmology and despite tremendous technical and technological advancements, posterior capsular rent (PCR) still occurs. PCR occurs both in the hands of experienced senior surgeons and the neophyte surgeons, although with a higher frequency in the latter group.

Tuberculous mastitis diagnosed on cytology - case report of a rare entity.

Tuberculous mastititis is a rare clinical entity and usually affects women from the Indian subcontinent. It often mimics breast carcinoma and pyogenic breast abscess. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a very essential diagnostic tool when other routine laboratory investigations are not helpful in reaching to the conclusion.

Fosfomycin susceptibility among multidrug-resistant, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing, carbapenem-resistant uropathogens.

Introduction: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infectious diseases. With the emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR), therapeutic options for treatment of UTIs are becoming limited. Fosfomycin has emerged as a novel oral therapeutic option with bactericidal activity against the MDR uropathogens.

Outstanding Prevalence of Methicillin Resistant in Neonatal Omphalitis.

Introduction: Omphalitis is the infection of the umbilical cord stump, which can lead to septicaemia and significant neonatal morbidity and mortality. Very little data is available on the aetiology of neonatal omphalitis in India.

Aim: To identify the causative agents of omphalitis in neonates and determine the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of the isolates.

Early Onset Neonatal Septicaemia Caused by Pantoea agglomerans.

Pantoea agglomerans is an opportunistic pathogen causing infection in the immunocompromised patients. It is a plant pathogen and a rare human pathogen causing neonatal sepsis, joint infection, urinary tract infection and bloodstream infections. Neonatal Gram negative septicaemia may have an unusual presentation of subtle generalised neonatal seizures without any other cardinal features of sepsis.

Initial presentation of hepatocellular carcinoma as soft tissue swelling of the forearm: A rare cytomorphological diagnosis.

Bone is quite an uncommon site of metastasis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We report a rare case of HCC presenting as a rapidly progressive painful soft tissue swelling with isolated metastasis to the radius bone of right forearm. The present article emphasizes the point that HCC should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with palpable soft tissue swelling with destruction of the underlying bone.

Metastatic cervical carcinoma masquerading as iliopsoas abscess in an HIV negative woman-diagnosed on fine-needle aspiration cytology: A case report.

The most common pathology in iliopsoas region in the Indian subcontinent is tuberculosis. The iliopsoas compartment can also be affected by other conditions such as hemorrhage and tumors. However, isolated metastasis in the area is usually rare, especially in cases where the primary malignancy is undiagnosed previously.

Clinico-radiological Approach to a Rare Case of Early Clavicle Tuberculosis: A Case Discussion Based Review of Differential Diagnosis.

A patient of 41 years of age presented with insidious onset atraumatic swelling arising from medial end of right clavicle with apparently normal radiograph. Initial computed tomography ascribed it to benign bony pathology requiring no specific treatment but patient did not respond to symptomatic management. FNAC done elsewhere was inconclusive, with no bacteria on Gram's staining and negative bacterial culture and AFB smear examinations.
