Recurrence beyond the second year of diagnosis and metastasis to the skin and eyelids are rare occurrences in breast cancer. When cutaneous metastases present without local recurrence, they pose a significant diagnostic challenge. Here, we describe a case of breast cancer that recurred 16 years after the initial treatment, with the only indication of recurrence being unusual skin and eyelid lesions.

We report a green approach to prepare carbon dots (CDs) with fresh tomatoes as carbon sources and amino acids as dopants (ACDs) by a microwave assisted method. The synthesised CDs were analysed by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, high resolution transmission electron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photo electron spectroscopy. An MTT assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of CDs toward L929 cells and found that CDs exhibit low cytotoxicity.

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have attracted significant attention in recent years due to its environment friendly characteristics and its participation in the multi-heteroatom doping of carbon quantum dots (CQDs). In this work, we present a simple, fast, and environment-friendly microwave synthesis approach for the synthesis of DES-assisted nitrogen and chloride co-doped CQDs (N,Cl-CQDs) using a choline chloride-urea based DES. A biomass-based precursor, i.

Background: Bone marrow (BM) in addition to being the origin of primary hematological malignancies is also commonly involved in metastatic solid tumors. Bone marrow examination includes aspiration and biopsy, and it is a well-known procedure not only to diagnose hematological malignancies but also for staging and prognosis of various solid tumors. The presence of metastasis in the bone marrow is of grave prognostic significance and it is imperative to rule out marrow involvement in any malignancy where curative treatment is considered.

Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels. Yoga is a low-cost, easily accessible lifestyle modification program that holds as an approach to decreasing cardiometabolic risk factors and increasing exercise self-efficacy among high-risk subjects. This study aimed to assess the impact of the yogic lifestyle (including diet) on cardiovascular risk scores by using the Framingham (FRS), QRISK3 score, and World Health Organization (WHO) CVD risk prediction charts at baseline, three months, and six months.

Hydroxyurea (HU) is frequently used in the treatment of various myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) where it reduces cell proliferation by impairing DNA synthesis leading to decreased hematopoiesis. Herein we report a case of a 65-year-old female who was diagnosed with Chronic myeloid leukemia and developed severe hemolytic anemia requiring multiple packed red blood cell (RBC) transfusions while being treated with hydroxyurea. The haemolysis persisted until discontinuation of the drug.

Background: Previous research has shown that Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is accompanied by severe impairments in cognitive and autonomic processes, which may linger even when mood symptoms recover. This study aimed to analyse the relationship between depression severity, as measured by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D), and how it affects heart rate variability (HRV) and cognitive function in patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).

Methodology: The cross-sectional study was conducted at RUHS College of Medical Sciences and Associated Hospitals, Jaipur, from July 2022 to January 2023 on 90 subjects having major depressive disorder (MDD) of either sex in the 20-40 age group using the Hamilton score for depression (HAM D), Heart Rate Variability (HRV) measurements, and a battery of cognitive tests.

Integrated Circuits are made of various transistors that are embedded on a silicon wafer, these wafers are difficult to process and hence are prone to defects. Defecting these defects manually is a time consuming and labour-intensive task and hence automation is necessary. Deep Learning approach is better suited in this case as it is able to generalize defects if trained properly and can be a solution to segmentation and classification of defects automatically.
