Evaluating the Role of Platelet Indices, with a Focus on Immature Platelet Fraction (IPF), in Differentiating Hyper-Destructive and Hypo-Productive Thrombocytopenia: A Study from Ludhiana, Punjab, India
Abstract: Background: Thrombocytopenia, characterized by a reduction in platelet count, is commonly observed in clinical settings. Its etiology can be broadly classified into hyper-destructive thrombocytopenia, where platelets are destroyed at an accelerated rate, and hypo-productive thrombocytopenia, where platelet production is impaired. Differentiating between these two causes is essential for effective management. The Immature Platelet Fraction (IPF) has emerged as a promising non-invasive diagnostic tool to distinguish these causes. Objectives: The primary …

Platelets A Tiny Cell Fragments
Abstract: Platelets are disc-shaped, anucleate cells that are approximately 2-3 μm in diameter. Their primary function is to control hemostasis, or blood clotting, but they also play important roles in angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels) and innate immunity (the body's first line of defence against infection). With a diameter of just 2-3 microns, platelets are tiny, disc-shaped cells that lack a nucleus. While their main responsibility is to ensure …

Wave plate; what is the angle of its central curved segment which provides biomechanically optimal stability for femoral shaft fracture?:A 3-D Finite Analysis
Abstract: Even though intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fracture is the standard surgical treatment as it is in tibial fracture, plate fixation might be a choice when the fracture involves open growth plate, patients are of shorter stature or have narrow canals. In these cases, fixation techniques with plate and screws, for example, percutaneous procedures involving wave plate, are useful thanks to minimal invasion and preservation of biological environment surrounding the …

Automatic Number Plate Recognition Based Image Processing
Abstract: In most countries, traffic control and vehicle owner identification have become important problems. It is almost impossible to identify vehicle owners who break rules of the traffic, especially those driving at high speeds. Another problem inhibits traffic officers from catching the offenders in most cases because solving traffic offenders involves retrieving license plate numbers from fast-moving vehicles. Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) systems have been developed as an effective solution …

Can Screw-only fixations of ACPHT acetabular fractures enhance stability as the standard buttress plate fixation provides?
Abstract: Background: Of acetabular fractures, anterior column posterior hemi-transverse(ACPHT) fractures commonly occur after a fall onto the hip in elderly population. When displaced in these fractures, open reduction and internal fixation using plate and screws is usually required to achieve good functional outcomes. The open procedures, however, involve high complication rates due to surgical invasion; therefore, percutaneous techniques by screw-only constructs have been advocated to minimize these complications. The purpose of …
