Designing flipped classroom using Kemp's instructional model to enhance deep learning and self-directed collaborative learning of basic science concepts.

Background: The flipped classroom pedagogy allows students to introduce a topic and gather their own meanings outside of the classroom, then explore the topic and create their meanings or exclude their misconceptions during class. Our aim was to enhance the ability of self-directed learning (SDL) among medical undergraduates. Pedagogical benefits of the model are highlighted along with potential challenges to its use.

Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis associated with papillary renal cell carcinoma.

Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (LMC), or neoplastic meningitis, occurs in about 5-20% of patients with metastatic cancer, depending on the type of the primary malignancy and kind of treatment received. The association of LMC with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a rare entity, and only two cases of papillary renal cell cancer with leptomeningeal metastasis have been reported. Leptomeningeal spread usually confers a poor prognosis despite the use of modern treatment strategies as compared to patients with extracranial metastases.

Retrospective analysis of antibiotic resistance pattern to urinary pathogens in a Tertiary Care Hospital in South India.
