Abstract: Blood remains the standard for diagnosing malaria, whether microscopic, nucleic acid or biomarker to identify Plasmodium present in the patient. However, given the risk of blood collection, repeated samples taken from unsanitary areas may be useful for malaria testing in resource-limited areas. Although current methods using saliva or urine are not as sensitive and specific as using blood, the potential of these two samples should not be underestimated and efforts have been made to develop a specific method to test for Plasmodium in these two samples. The saliva.....

Abstract: Introduction To curtail the Mortality rate due to unsafe abortion practices in India Introduction of MTP act was done in 1971, further Amendment done in 2021Under which abortion services are provided to the woman upto 24 weeks for special categories. Around 73 million induced abortions take place worldwide each year. Six out of 10 (61%) of all unintended pregnancies, and 3 out of 10 (29%) of all pregnancies, end in induced abortion.Induced abortions are conducted as per WHO recommendations following MTP (Ammendment)Act,2021. In India 25% of women obtaining induced abortions service. Therefore, this study aims to assess knowledge, attitude, and associated factors towards induced abortion service among females of reproductive age group...

Abstract: Laryngoscopy followed by endotracheal intubation is an important part of the administration of general anesthesia. The aim of laryngoscopy is to obtain good visualization of the vocal cords to facilitate smooth endotracheal intubation so that the period of apnoea during intubation can be minimized. Direct laryngoscopic view is best attained in the 'sniffing the morning air' position obtained by placing a pillow under the occiput of the patient.This brings the laryngeal and pharyngeal axes into closer alignment.Subsequent extension of the head at the atlanto-occipital joint aligns the oral axis with pharyngeal and laryngeal axes.To improve the view of the glottis and reduce hemodynamic........

Abstract: With large number of grafts available for ossiculoplasty, choice becomes difficult. An ideal ossiculoplasty material should be safe, easily available, cost efficient, with good hearing results, uptake and low extrusion rates. The otologists are still facing the indecision over type of material to be selected. A prospective study was conducted in Department of Otorhinolaryngology, K. D. Medical College and Hospital, Mathura (September 2022 to March 2024) on 60 patients, 12-60 years of age, of either sex. This study aims to compare the efficacy of cortical bone and Teflon TORP as ossiculoplasty materials. Auto-graft included Mastoid Cortical bone and Synthetic graft......

Abstract: Odontogenic cutaneous sinus tract is a rare but well-documented condition. A common manifestation of pulp necrosis is draining sinus tract or fistula, which could be intra-oral or extra-oral. The microbiologically induced inflammation spreads along the path of least resistance by penetrating the alveolar bone. Ultimately, to form a path of drainage, the inflammatory process can reach the surrounding tissues. These conditions are often misdiagnosed as other non-pulp pathologies. So misdiagnosed as a local skin lesion and maltreated by systemic antibiotics, we came across a 13-year-old girl patient who presented with a cutaneous lesion of dental etiology in the sub-.....

Abstract: The evolution of the clear aligner system has been marked by significant advancements across various facets. Innovations in materials have led to enhanced flexibility and durability, while refined protocols have optimized treatment efficiency. Additionally, the introduction of attachments and auxiliary tools has bolstered biomechanical control, further augmenting the system's capabilities. Despite these advancements, certain limitations persist within the realm of clear aligner treatment, particularly regarding the predictability of specific tooth movements. These uncertainties underscore the need for alternative approaches to achieve more reliable outcomes......

Abstract: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious condition that can be associated with inherited thrombophilia, including protein S deficiency—a genetic disorder impairing the anticoagulant pathway. We present a case of a 46-year-old patient with no significant medical history, admitted with acute-onset chest pain and hemoptysis. Imaging confirmed a distal pulmonary embolism, and subsequent thrombophilia screening revealed protein S deficiency. This case underscores the importance of screening for thrombophilic disorders in unexplained venous thromboembolism cases.

Abstract: Spinal tumors comprise 5% to 10% of all central nervous system tumors and most of them are intradural and extramedullary in location. Among spinal tumors neurofibromas, and meningiomas are the most common ones. Meningiomas are known to arise from arachnoid cap cells and are classified into three groups namely grade 1, grade 2, and grade 3 as per the World Health Organization. Though a majority of these tumors are of Grade 1, some of them can be of Grade 3 which is highly anaplastic and has a high rate of metastasis.1 Risk for tumor recurrence and prognosis depends......
