Identification of Incidence and Outcome of Diffuse-Axonal Injuries
Abstract: Background: Diffuse axonal injury (DAI), a specific type of traumatic brain injury, may be caused by shearing forces leading to widespread tearing of axons and small vessels. This study is designed to identify the incidence, risk factors, mortality and analyze outcome in DAI. Method: 120 patients with DAI were recorded in the duration of 2 years. DAI was confirmed by signs of injury identified in radiology imaging. Patients underwent surgery, …

Patient Teaching for Cardiac Rehabilitation in Cardio Diabetes
Abstract: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality worldwide, and are a significant contributor to morbidity and health-related costs. Coronary artery disease (CAD)—the most common type of CVDs—is considered as a chronic condition and, therefore, requires a careful medical management with multiple recommendations for patients to achieve optimal secondary prevention. As a consequence, patient education is a necessary step to promote patient understanding of the recommended therapies and behavior …

A Comparative Study of Timed Up and Go Test and Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment in Predicting Falls in Hemiparetic Stroke Patients
Abstract: Hemiparesis following stroke is the most frequent cause of adult disability. Falls in stroke survivors are a consequence of stroke related locomotor deficits or balance deficits or gait disturbances. Falls are common following stroke but knowledge about predicting future fallers is lacking. The purpose of this study was to compare Timed Up and Go test (TUG) scores and Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment (POMA) scores for predicting falls in Hemiparetic patients …

Convolutional Neural Network and Transfer Learning-based Approach for Brain Tumor Detection in Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Abstract: Brain tumors are among the most invasive illnesses that can affect both children and adults. Brain tumors develop very quickly, and if not treated at the proper time, they decrease the patient's chances of survival. It is crucial to find brain tumors at an early stage. To increase patients’ life expectancy, proper treatment planning and precise diagnostics are most important. The best way to detect brain tumors is via Magnetic …

Carcinoma Ovary Metastasis to Breast
Abstract: Ovarian cancer commonly metastasises to lymph nodes, lung and liver. Primary ovarian carcinoma metastasising to breast is a very unusual and very few cases are described. Literature reports only 39 cases till date. Most common histological variety of Primary ovarian cancer metastasising to breast is papillary serous adenocarcinoma. Metastasis to breast suggests distant spread of the tumour and hence poor prognosis with median age of survival being 6 months from …

Management of Axilla in Breast Cancer: Reducing Morbidity of Axillary Dissection
Abstract: The main role of axillary dissection for breast cancer is in deciding the nature of adjuvant therapy. Its role in improving overall survival is still not proven. Lymphedema is the most dreaded morbidity of axillary dissection. While sentinel node biopsy may help reduce this considerably, this is possibly more applicable in countries that have a regular screening program and plenty of screen-detected cancers. In India, we get most patients with …

Reviewing Diagnosis and Management Strategies for Barrett's Esophagus
Abstract: Incidence of distal oesophageal carcinoma is increasing faster than that of any other visceral cancer in the western world. It is commonly known that the most, if not all, of theses tumours arise in the Barrette oesophagus through the metaplasia-dysplasia-carcinoma sequence. Which may allow for early detection; nonetheless, most of these tumours are still discovered much late in their progression. This emphasizes how far of the aim of adequate surveillance …

A Study to Evaluate the Relationship Between the Depth and Extent of Burn Injury with Sepsis
Abstract: In our mortuary, the authors get a lot of cases of bun injury. Among these, most of the deceased die because of the septicaemic shock. Cases of survival after having 45% burn injury also have been reported in our area and in our mortuary, the authors have even got cases with only 10% burn injury (site included face) died due to septicemias. In most of the septicaemic deaths, the burn …

Anatomic Study of Neurofasciocutaneous Flap of Lower Leg
Abstract: Soft tissue defects of lower leg and foot have a high incidence and are not easily healed for its anatomic physiological properties. Moreover, they tend to recur easily after healing with a long duration of disability. Accompanying arteries of the superficial limb nerves supply not only nerves but also skin through their branches, and such close relationship between nerve and skin supplies can ensure the survival of the neurofasciocutaneous flaps. …
