    Abstract Recent advances in noninvasive portable and wearable biosensors have attracted significant attention due to their capability to offer continual physiological information for continuous healthcare monitoring through the collection of biological signals. To make the collected biological data understandable and improve the efficacy of these biosensors, scientists have integrated machine learning (ML) with biosensors to analyze large sensing data through various ML algorithms. In this article, we have highlighted the recent developments in ML-enabled noninvasive biosensors. Initially, we introduced and discussed the basic features of ML algorithms used in data processing to build an intelligent biosensor system and the capability to make clinical decisions. Next, the principles of portable and wearable biosensors, the application of different ML models in diverse biosensors for healthcare applications, and their impact on the performance of biosensors are discussed. The last section highlights the challenges (such as data privacy, consistency, stability, accuracy, scalable production, and adaptive learning capacity), future prospects, and necessary steps required to address these issues, spotlighting their revolutionizing impact on the healthcare industry for the development of next-generation ML-enabled efficient biosensors.

    Abstract Background: This is an observational study which aims to research morphological changes of white blood cells in patients with Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) with and without sepsis and evaluate morphological changes in white blood cells as predictors of sepsis.
    Methods: Patients aged 18 years or more with SIRS with sepsis and SIRS without sepsis were included and those with haematological disorders or pregnant patients were excluded. A total of 52 patients with SIRS with sepsis and 32 patients of SIRS without sepsis were included. Peripheral blood smear was prepared from the venous blood sample drawn. The presence of toxic granules, cytoplasmic vacuoles, and Dohle bodies in both cases of SIRS with sepsis without sepsis were assessed and it was compared with culture-positive sepsis and shock.
    Results: The difference in the presence of toxic granules (55.8% vs. 12.5%; p <0.001), cytoplasmic vacuoles (30.8% vs. 6.3%; p -0.012), and Dohle bodies (17.3% vs. 0%; p = 0.012) was significantly higher in the SIRS with sepsis group, compared to the SIRS without sepsis group. In the subgroup analysis of patients in the sepsis group, it was observed that patients with positive blood culture (9%) had a significantly higher proportion of toxic granules (100% vs. 51.1%; p=0.059), cytoplasmic vacuoles (40% vs. 29.8%; p=0.637) and Dohle bodies (40% vs. 14.9%; p=0.202). However, these differences were not statistically significant.
    Conclusion: Toxic granules and cytoplasmic vacuoles in the neutrophils of patients with SIRS with sepsis were found more frequently, compared to patients of SIRS without sepsis. Dohle bodies were found only in patients with sepsis and not in those with SIRS without sepsis.

    Abstract Spigelian hernias are difficult to detect and palpate during physical examination due to their deeper location. They can be asymptomatic or present with acute complications such as incarceration, strangulation, or bowel obstruction. Here we present a case of a 58-year-old female with history of palpable swelling over the left iliac fossa region with abdominal distension. A computed tomography with oral contrast revealed features suggestive of incarcerated Spigelian hernia with small bowel obstruction, which was later managed with laparoscopic ventral hernia repair and repair of seromuscular tear of the small bowel. Computed tomography is the gold standard for diagnosing the condition and assessing bowel status. Conservative treatment is not effective due to the high likelihood of complications, and surgery is the mainstay of management. The approach to surgery depends on the patient's characteristics, the type of hernia, and the surgeon's experience. Mesh repair is advocated regardless of approach.

    Abstract Objective: Versican is a chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan with raised expression at site of inflammation, and uterine fibroids are associated with local inflammation. Hence, this study aimed to estimate serum Versican levels in pre-menopausal women with uterine fibroids to evaluate its diagnostic efficiency.
    Materials and methods: This case-control study included forty uterine fibroid cases and 40 healthy controls. Cases clinically evaluated with USG findings, that is number, location of fibroid and volume calculated by prolate ellipse formula a × b × c × 0.523 (a - height, b - width, c - depth). Biochemical investigations, that is serum Versican levels, were estimated by ELISA with total cholesterol, HDLc and LDLc. Triglycerides by fully automated chemistry analysers. Serum biochemical parameters were compared and correlated with volume of fibroid. Area under receiver operating characteristic curve was calculated along with cut-off value to determine diagnostic potential of Versican, differentiating women with fibroids.
    Results: In the present study, patients with fibroids had decreased levels of serum Versican (79.43 ± 18.60) as compared to healthy controls (101.81 ± 28.24,
    Conclusion: Serum Versican levels were found significantly lower in women with fibroid with a negative correlation with volume of fibroid uterus. Furthermore, extensive study would help in substantiating diagnostic potential of serum Versican in fibroid uterus patients.

    Abstract Leukocyte migration from the vascular compartment is critical fornormal lymphocyte recirculation in specific tissues and immune response in inflammatory locations. Leukocyte recruitment, migration to inflammatory areas, and targeting in the extravascular space are caused by cellular stimulation and local expression of adhesion molecules. Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and Vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) belong to the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell adhesion molecules (CAM) with a crucial role in mediating the strong adherence of leukocytes to endothelial cells in numerous acute as well as chronic diseases. ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 mediate inflammation and promote leukocyte migration during inflammation. ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 have a large role in regulating homeostasis and in pathologic states such as cancer, atherosclerosis, atrial fibrillation, myocardial infarction, stroke, asthma, obesity, kidney diseases, and much more. In inflammatory conditions and infectious disorders, leukocytes move and cling to the endothelium via multiple intracellular adhesive interactions. It is suggested that combining membrane-bound and soluble ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 into a single unit functional system will further our understanding of their immunoregulatory role as well as their pathophysiological effects on disease. This review focuses on the pathophysiological roles of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in various inflammatory and other diseases as well as their emerging cardiovascular role during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Abstract Among oral diseases, oral cancer is a critical health issue due to its life-threatening potential. Globocan, in its 2020 report, estimated ∼0.37 million new cases of oral cancer, with the majority of them coming from the Asian continent. The WHO has anticipated a rise in the incidences of oral cancer in the coming decades. Various factors, such as genetic, epigenetic, microbial, habitual, and lifestyle factors, are closely associated with oral cancer occurrence and progression. Oral lesions, inherited genetic mutations (dyskeratosis congenital syndrome), and viral infections (HPV) are early signs of oral cancer. Lesions with dysplastic features have been categorized under oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs), such as oral leukoplakia, erythroplakia, oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), and proliferative verrucous leukoplakia, are assumed to have a high risk of malignancy. The incidence and prevalence of OPMDs are recorded as being high in South-Asian countries. Early detection, prevention, and treatment of OPMDs are needed to prevent its malignant transformation into oral cancer. Many advanced diagnostic techniques are used to predict their progression and to assess the risk of malignant transformation. This communication provides insight into the importance of early detection and prevention of OPMDs.
