Integrated enhanced recovery after surgery protocol in radical cystectomy for bladder tumour-A retroprospective study.

Introduction: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a patient-centerd, evidence-based approach to improve postoperative outcomes. The protocol involves multidisciplinary collaboration and standardisation of perioperative interventions. ERAS has shown positive results in reducing hospitalisation and complications.

Unprecedented journey to 650 transpedicular screws using freehand technique and intraoperative C-arm imaging with technical nuances.

Introduction: Pedicle screw placement plays a crucial role in treating various cases such as fractures, scoliosis, degenerative spine issues, and kyphosis, reinforcing all three spinal columns simultaneously. While three-dimensional navigation-assisted pedicle screw placement is considered superior, the freehand technique relies on anatomical landmarks and tactile feedback, with observed low complication rates.

Materials And Methods: This was a prospective single-center study conducted over a period of 3 years.

Development of Protocol for the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) task force study to strengthen the implementation of National Programme for Prevention and Control of Non-Communicable Diseases (NP-NCD) in tribal population.

Understanding the health culture of tribal community is important as health problems among tribal communities and their care is influenced by sociocultural factors, which will help in the implementation of health services. The conventional way of improving the access for the general populations may not suit the tribal populations owing to their distinct culture and owing to health systems factors as well. A stepwise process was followed for the development of a protocol to study to strengthen the implementation of National Programme for Prevention and Control of Non-Communicable Diseases.

Expanded phenotypic spectrum in MODY 5 patients with 17q12 deletion syndrome: experience from an Indian tertiary care hospital.

Objectives: To study the clinical and genotypic spectrum of patients with deletions (MODY 5) at a tertiary care hospital.

Methods: This study included four patients from the Department of Endocrinology at Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences Srinagar with a strong clinical suspicion of MODY 5. Genetic analysis, including a monogenic gene panel comprising 78 genes associated with MODY and other similar forms of monogenic diabetes, was done.

Phylo-geo haplotype network-based characterization of SARS-CoV-2 strains circulating in India (2020-2022).

Background & objectives Genetic analysis of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) strains circulating in India during 2020-2022 was carried out to understand the evolution of potentially expanding and divergent clades. Methods SARS-CoV-2 sequences (n=612) randomly selected from among the sequences of samples collected through a nationwide network of Virus Research Diagnostic Laboratories during 2020 (n=1532) and Indian sequences available in Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data during March 2020-March 2022 (n=53077), were analyzed using the phylo-geo haplotype network approach with reference to the Wuhan prototype sequence. Results On haplotype analysis, 420 haplotypes were revealed from 643 segregating sites among the sequences.

Germ Cell Tumors in 46, XY Gonadal Dysgenesis.

Introduction: To present the clinical data, investigative profile, management, and follow-up of patients with 46, XY gonadal dysgenesis with germ cell tumors from the endocrine unit of a tertiary care university hospital.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included 3 cases of 46, XY gonadal dysgenesis with germ cell tumors evaluated and managed at the Department of Endocrinology, Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Srinagar, Kashmir, over a period of 13 years from (September 2008 to December 2021).

Results: Over a period of 13 years, we diagnosed and managed 7 patients with 46, XY gonadal dysgenesis.

Correlation of Diabetes Related Factors with Vitamin D and Immunological Parameters in T2DM Kashmiri Population.

In this study, the role of inflammatory biomarkers and vitamin D in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and their correlation with diabetes related factors (HbA1c, FPG, and insulin) was analysed. In this study, Kashmiri patients with T2DM and healthy individuals were considered as cases (n = 100) and controls (n = 100) respectively. Blood samples from both groups were collected, inflammatory biomarkers (TNF-α, CRP), as well as serum vitamin D levels, were estimated by ELISA.

Effect of a structured health promotional program using the self-support groups on lifestyle behavior: The .

Background: is a one-of-a-kind health promotion intervention that focuses on chronic disease prevention behaviors through peer support and social support network development. The goal of the study was to see how effective was in a city setting in India.

Materials And Methods: From July 2018 to July 2019, we used a mixed-methods intervention research design including many sites.

New Onset Diabetes After COVID 19 (NODAC) is predominantly due to exacerbated Insulin Resistance (IR) rather than beta cell dysfunction: Lessons from tertiary care hospital data during confluence of two epidemics.

Purpose: To investigate determinants of new onset diabetes after COVID-19 (NODAC) and its recovery at 6 months.

Methods: This was an observational follow up study conducted from August, 2020 to July, 2023, recruiting patients with preexisting DM and COVID 19 patients with no history of DM. Multivariate regression analysis was used to determine the factors responsible for severity of COVID 19 infection in preexisting DM group.

Factors Associated with Hospital Length of Stay among VTE Cases: Insights from the i-RegVed Registry.

Introduction: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a multifactorial condition and one of the leading causes of mortality and disability. The present study explores the factors associated with hospitalization duration among different types of venous thromboembolism diagnoses, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and other forms of thrombosis.

Methods: The data included participants with VTE admitted to 13 hospitals within pan-India from June 2022 to December 2023 to the i-RegVed registry, where socio-demographic data, clinical history, and various factors associated with hospital length of stay (LOS) were included for analyses.
