    Abstract Background: Poisoning has been one of the greatest medical emergencies from the dawn of human civilization, posing threat to mankind. Tripura being a seven sister state of Northeast India have a unique topography, diverse ethnic groups, cross-cultural food habits, agriculture, and a horticulture-based economy that draws some distinctive type of poisoning threats compared to the rest of the Indian subcontinent. The present study was carried out to find out the epidemiological factors, toxicological profiles, and clinical outcomes of patients after consumption of poison.
    Methods: A cross-sectional study on 212 patients with a complaint of poisoning was conducted in a teaching hospital in Tripura, India, for 2 years, and the data were analyzed by using SPSS-15 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) software.
    Results: Out of 212 participants, males from lower socioeconomic status, farmers by occupation, and belonging to the age group of 21-30 years predominated other categories. Organophosphorus compounds were majorly ingested (38.7%). Suicide was the most common manner of poisoning (62.73%). The majority of the patients (75%) died during treatment, 39.15% of patients died in the initial 24 hours and 43.87% of the patients had severe life-threatening symptoms [grade 3 of poison severity score (PSS)] during the first 72 hours of hospital admission. A Spearman rho value of -0.740 and a
    Conclusion: Poisoning by any agents and means produces adverse effects on the human body which further influences the clinical outcome. Therefore, proper knowledge and attention regarding its clinico-toxico-epidemiological profile, accurate and timely diagnosis, and satisfactory management and prevention strategies are necessary.

    Abstract Psoriasis is a multifactorial genetic disorder manifested by hyperproliferation and abnormal differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes, along with the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the skin. Although ~80 genetic susceptibility variants were reported in psoriasis, many loci showed population-specific associations, warranting the need for more population-specific association studies in psoriasis. We determined the association of forty single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) among 2136 psoriasis patients and normal individuals from eastern India. We investigated the expression of corresponding genes and evaluated the protein structure stability for the genes with susceptible coding variants. We found fifteen SNPs significantly associated with psoriasis, while additional three SNPs showed significant association when we classified the patients based on the presence of HLA-Cw6 allele. Epistatic interaction between HLA-Cw6 and other associated loci showed significant association with the SNPs at PSORS1 region, along with other five SNPs outside PSORS1. Three genes showed significant differential expression in psoriatic tissues compared to the adjacent normal skin tissues but were not differential when classified the patients based on their genotypes. SNP rs495337 at SPATA2 (Spermatogenesis Associated 2) showed a 1.2-fold increased risk among the HLA-Cw6 patients compared to combined samples. We found significant downregulation of SPATA2 among the patients with risk genotypes and HLA-Cw6 allele compared to the non-risk genotypes. Protein structure stability analysis showed reduced structural stability for all the mutant residues caused by the associated coding variants. Our study evaluated the genetic associations of psoriasis-susceptible variants in India and evaluated the possible functional significance of these associated variants in psoriasis.

    Abstract Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorder and is closely linked to stress. Psychiatric morbidities such as anxiety and depression are common in IBS. Long-term follow-up studies on anxiety and depressive symptoms in IBS and the impact of treatment are lacking in the Indian scenario.
    Aims: This study aimed to assess the various subtypes of IBS according to the Rome IV criteria, assess anxiety and depressive symptoms in patients with IBS at baseline and also at various phases of follow-up over one year, and see the impact of the treatment of both IBS and associated anxiety and depressive symptoms if present, in the severity of IBS and other psychiatric symptoms.
    Materials and methods: Patients with IBS, aged between 18 and 65 years, were enrolled for the study. Subtypes and severity of IBS were assessed. Anxiety and depressive symptoms were assessed by the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) and the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D), respectively. The patients were treated with conventional treatment of IBS with concomitant treatment of anxiety and depressive symptoms and were followed up for 1 year.
    Results: Thirty-seven patients completed a 1-year follow-up. The mean age was 38.4 ± 11.6 years. The majority were males (81%), and IBS-D (84%) was the most common subtype. Stressful life events (67.6%) and chronic stressors (64.9%) were present in the majority of the patients. The patients had moderate-to-severe anxiety at baseline (HAM-A score 27.8 ± 6.4) and moderate-to-severe depression at baseline (HAM-D score 19.7 ± 6.6). The improvement over 1 year was statistically significant (
    Conclusion: There is a high prevalence of anxiety and depression in patients with IBS. With adequate treatment of both IBS and concomitant anxiety-depressive symptoms, there is a significant decrease in the severity of IBS, anxiety, and depression.

    Abstract Introduction and importance: Neural tube defect occurs as a result of failure of spontaneous closure of the neural tube between the third and fourth weeks of foetal life. Exencephaly is a rare malformation of the neural tube characterized by a large amount of protruding brain tissue in the absence of the calvarium.
    Case presentation: The authors report a 29-year-old female, non-compliant to iron, calcium and folic acid tablets due to nauseating and itchy sensation after intake for 2 weeks, was admitted in ward Obstetrics ward in view of twin pregnancy. After proper counselling, she was advised for caesarean section, which revealed gross malformation in the form of cleft lip, cleft palate and exposed brain tissue covered by thin layer of membrane with incompletely formed cranial vault and multiple-haematoma and ulcerations in the exposed brain tissue suggestive of Exencephaly. The deformed baby survived for 2 days after birth while the other baby was grossly healthy.
    Clinical discussion: Exencephaly is said to be the embryological precursor anomaly of anencephaly. Exencephaly is a type of cranial malformation that characteristically involves a large disorganized mass of brain tissue. The flat bones of calvaria are absent and the brain mass is left uncovered. This condition is incompatible with life.
    Conclusion: Each and every pregnant lady must be advised to undergo ultrasonography in every trimester, especially second trimester scan (anomaly scan) to diagnose any gross congenital malformations. Each pregnant lady is suggested to take the necessary vitamins (like folic acid) to avoid any Neural tube defects.

    Abstract The Polygonaceae weed, Rumex dentatus L. grows in association with wheat, mustard and potato, while Polygonum glabrum Willd. grows in association with rice in India. Both larvae and adults of Galerucella placida Baly (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) voraciously consume these weeds. Applications of synthetic herbicides to control weeds are harmful to the environment including beneficial organisms. We propose to find volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from both weeds causing attraction of the biocontrol agent, G. placida, in order to attempt to use the insect as a biological weed control. Behavioral responses of G. placida towards volatile blends characteristic of undamaged (UD), insect-damaged (ID), jasmonic acid-treated (JA) or mechanically-damaged (MD) plants were conducted by Y-tube olfactometer bioassays. Cuminaldehyde was predominant in VOCs of UD R. dentatus, ID P. glabrum, and both JA and MD R. dentatus and P. glabrum. Geraniol was predominant in VOCs of UD P. glabrum, while 1,3-diethylbenzene predominated in VOCs of ID R. dentatus. Females were more attracted towards volatile blends of ID plants compared to UD or JA plants. Females did not show attraction towards volatile blends of JA plants. We identified two bioactive synthetics blends, one comprised of seven compounds - 16.65 µg 1,3-diethylbenzene, 10.72 µg acetophenone, 6.52 µg 2,6-(E,Z)-nonadienal, 2.46 µg 1-nonanol, 4.19 µg decanal, 9.86 µg 4-ethylacetophenone and 3.34 µg 1-hexadecene dissolved in 25 µl CH

    Abstract Increasing food waste is creating a global waste (and management) crisis. Globally, ∼1.6 billion tons of food is wasted annually, worth ∼$1.2 trillion. By reducing this waste or by turning it into valuable products, numerous economic advantages can be realized, including improved food security, lower production costs, biodegradable products, environmental sustainability, and cleaner solutions to the growing world's waste and garbage management. The appropriate handling of these detrimental materials can significantly reduce the risks to human health. Food waste is available in biodegradable forms and, with the potential to speed up microbial metabolism effectively, has immense potential in improving bio-based fertilizer generation. Synthetic inorganic fertilizers severely affect human health, the environment, and soil fertility, thus requiring immediate consideration. To address these problems, agricultural farming is moving towards manufacturing bio-based fertilizers via utilizing natural bioresources. Food waste-based bio-fertilizers could help increase yields, nutrients, and organic matter and mitigate synthetic fertilizers' adverse effects. These are presented and discussed in the review.
