    Abstract Automated essay scoring is one of the most important problem in Natural Language Processing. It has been explored for a number of years, and it remains partially solved. In addition to its economic and educational usefulness, it presents research problems. Transfer learning has proved to be beneficial in NLP. Data augmentation techniques have also helped build state-of-the-art models for automated essay scoring. Many works in the past have attempted to solve this problem by using RNNs, LSTMs, etc. This work examines the transformer models like BERT, RoBERTa, etc. We empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of transformer models and data augmentation for automated essay grading across many topics using a single model.

    Abstract Protrusio acetabuli, or abnormal protrusion of the femoral head into the acetabulum, requires performance of a total hip arthroplasty (THA) for which various reconstruction techniques and outcomes have been described. The aim of this systematic review is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the current evidence, evaluate treatment efficacy, compare surgical techniques, and identify topics for future research along with improving evidence-based decision-making, improving patient outcomes in the management of this condition. A thorough systematic review of the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library databases, and Scopus library was conducted, and articles describing techniques of THA for treatment of protrusion acetabuli were extracted. The initial search generated 751 results. After exclusion, 18 articles were included. Of these, eight were prospective studies and 10 were retrospective. Surgery was performed on 783 hips with a mean age of 60 years; 80% of females who mostly had inflammatory arthritis were followed up for 8.86 years (range, 2-15.4 years). Good outcomes have been achieved with THA using uncemented cups with bone graft; however, no conclusion could be drawn with regard to the femoral side. It can be concluded that the concept of restoration of the anatomical hip center of rotation is paramount for good outcome and better survival of the implant is important when using uncemented cups with a bone graft. In addition, screw augmentation for fixation is not recommended unless absolutely necessary. The most common complications were aseptic loosening and heterotopic ossification. While the former required revision, conservative management was administered for the latter.

    Abstract Diabetic striatopathy (DS) is a rare and life-threatening mani- festation of diabetes. The disease commonly affects individuals of Asian descent, women and the elderly. DS is characterized by dyskinesias with basal ganglia hyperintensities on imaging. Despite being rare, prompt recognition of a hyperglycaemia- induced hemichorea-hemiballismus is essential because the symptoms are reversible with correction of hyperglycaemia. Diagnosis is based on blood analysis and neuroimaging findings. Laboratory tests reveal raised glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, which indicate poorly controlled diabetes. Neuroimaging provides suggestive findings of DS. It is usually associated with non-ketotic hyperglycaemia. We report a 50-year-old woman who presented with ketotic hyperglycaemia and left-sided hemichorea and partial seizures with secondary generalization.

    Abstract Background: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction is one of the most common surgeries being currently done. As we usher into the era of Individualized Anatomic Reconstruction, it is very important to understand the native anatomy of ACL. We aimed to assess the ACL footprint dimensions in our patients and correlate it with anthropometric variables, which can help in preoperative decision making.
    Method: A total of 143 eligible patients with suspected ACL injury presented during the study period. Out of which 92 were included in the study. Data on patient's age, sex, height, weight and body mass index (BMI) was recorded. The length and area of both the tibial and femoral footprints were measured on MRI. The footprint dimensions were correlated with the recorded anthropometric data.
    Results: The ACL tibial footprint length and area, and femoral footprint length and area were found to be 13.3 ± 2.23 mm, 142.6 ± 26.16 mm
    Conclusions: Height was found to be the most significant predictor of footprint dimensions in our patients. The predictive equations and graphs can aid in preoperative surgical decision making resulting in a more anatomical ACL reconstruction and improve the post-operative results.

    Abstract Discovery of RNA interference (RNAi) has opened up a new arena of therapeutic intervention for the treatment of cancerous as well as noncancerous diseases. The RNAi pathway utilizes RNAi inducers such as small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to target and silence disease causing genes. However, efficient delivery of siRNAs for eliciting efficacious RNAi has remained a daunting challenge. Nonviral vectors such as lipids have shown great promise in delivering siRNAs. Recently, a novel class of cationic lipid molecules "bolaamphiphile lipids" or "bola lipids" has been shown to deliver siRNAs to cause effective gene silencing in cells. The present chapter showcases the ability of bola lipids to form micelles, bind with nucleic acids and protect nucleic acids against nucleases. Also, high in vitro transfection efficiency for silencing green fluorescent protein (GFP) using Dicer substrate siRNAs (dsiRNAs) designed against GFP at nontoxic dose in a human breast cancer model is demonstrated. Our results showed that these cationic bola lipids are promising siRNA delivery agents.

    Abstract Our study evaluated the role of micro-erythrocte sedimentation rate (micro-ESR) in the early detection of neonatal sepsis.Neonates with >34 completed weeks of gestation, appropriate for gestational age, admitted in our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit with clinical suspicion of early onset sepsis were enrolled in the study. A sepsis screen and blood culture was performed on all the babies within 4 h of admission. The sensitivity of micro-ESR for detecting positive blood culture was calculated and the best cut-off was determined using the Area Under Curve.

    Abstract Introduction: Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis (CPA) continues to be an enigma to clinicians in regions with a high prevalence of pulmonary tuberculosis and is often misdiagnosed as the latter, attributable to the significant overlap in symptoms and radiology. Moreover, although the diagnostic criteria for CPA have been standardised, the role of serological markers in monitoring disease activity and response to therapy is still not well characterised. Aim: To understand the characteristics, risk factors and treatment outcomes in patients developing CPA and to determine the role of serological markers as indicators of disease activity. Materials and Methods: The present longitudinal study was conducted in the Department of Respiratory Medicine, University College of Medical Sciences and its associated Guru Teg Bahadur Hospital, Delhi, India from February 2021 to June 2022. Study included 46 patients suspected of harbouring CPA attributable to their clinico-radiological presentation. The diagnosis of CPA was made using the established criteria. Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of CPA received oral azole antifungals for 6 months and were monitored at 3-monthly intervals for reduction in baseline parameters to determine treatment success/failure. Paired and unpaired parametric variables were compared using the t-test and non parametric methods were compared using the Chi-square test. Results: The diagnosis of CPA was established in 31 (67.4%) patients of whom 77.6% were males and the mean age was 47.3±2.2 years. These patients had been symptomatic for 5.8±1.2 years. Underlying risk factors (such as the history of tuberculosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, history of long-term glucocorticoid use etc.) had been present for 6.9±1.3 years. Patients harboured an average of two risk factors with tuberculosis and diabetes mellitus being the most common local and systemic affliction, respectively. Patients with tuberculosis (p-value=0.001) and chronic steroid use (p-value=0.029) were ...
