    Abstract Accessory parotid lobe tumors are very rare. For any mass occupying the mid-cheek, tumors of the accessory parotid gland should be strongly suspected. These tumors are properly evaluated using ultrasonography, computed tomography, and fine needle aspiration cytology. Different surgical approaches are mentioned in the literature for the resection of these parotid lesions. These surgical approaches are often accompanied by the extracapsular dissection of the tumor. The extracapsular dissection of the tumor is an adequate technique to resect tumors of the accessory lobe of the parotid.

    Abstract The residual imidacloprid, a widely used insecticide is causing serious environmental concerns. Knowledge of its biodegradation will help in assessing its residual mass in soil. In view of this, a soil microcosm-based study was performed to test the biodegradation potential of Agrobacterium sp. InxBP2. It achieved ∼88% degradation in 20 days and followed the pseudo-first-order kinetics (k = 0.0511 day

    Abstract Introduction: A liver biopsy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Here, we combine preoperative transient elastography (TE) and intraoperative standardized visual liver score (VLS) which is compared with intraoperative liver biopsy for prediction of NAFLD and NASH in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
    Aim: Evaluate the combined diagnostic accuracy of TE and VLS in assessing NAFLD or NASH and compare it with liver biopsy in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
    Methods: In a prospective cohort of 70 morbidly obese undergoing bariatric surgery, preoperative TE and intraoperative VLS were calculated. Findings of TE and VLS were compared with histology from intraoperative liver biopsy.
    Results: Histologically, 44 (62.85%) had NAFLD (≥ S1). Significant steatosis was seen in 20 (28.57%) while significant fibrosis was visible in 18 (25.71%). Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristics (AUROC) TE for diagnosis of NAFLD was excellent (0.844, p = 0.001). At the optimal cutoff of 8.1, the positive predictive value (PPV) was 92.9%, and diagnostic accuracy was 90.6%. VLS had a sensitivity of 90.9% for NAFLD. The combined sensitivity of TE + VLS was 95.5% for ruling out NAFLD. Fourteen (20%) had NASH. VLS had a diagnostic accuracy of 97% in identifying NASH in comparison to TE. AUROC-VLS was 0.987, p ≤ 0.001, and a sensitivity of 100%. The overall sensitivity of combined TE and VLS was 100% with a negative predictive value (NPV) of 100%.
    Conclusion: TE when combined with intraoperative VLS is comparable to liver biopsy and can be used for the diagnosis of NAFLD and NASH in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

    Abstract In the rapidly evolving landscape of continuous electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring systems, there is a heightened demand for non-invasive sensors capable of measuring ECGs and detecting heart rate variability (HRV) in diverse populations, ranging from cardiovascular patients to sports enthusiasts. Challenges like device accuracy, patient privacy, signal noise, and long-term safety impede the use of wearable devices in clinical practice. This scoping review aims to assess the performance and safety of novel multi-channel, sensor-based biopotential wearable devices in adults. A comprehensive search strategy was employed on four databases, resulting in 143 records and the inclusion of 12 relevant studies. Most studies focused on healthy adult subjects (

    Abstract Imidacloprid, a broad-spectrum insecticide, is widely used against aphids and other sucking insects. As a result, its toxic effect is becoming apparent in non-targeted organisms. In-situ bioremediation of residual insecticide from the environment utilizing efficient microbes would be helpful in reducing its load. In the present work, in-depth genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, and metabolomics analyses were employed to reveal the potential of Sphingobacterium sp. InxBP1 for in-situ degradation of imidacloprid. The microcosm study revealed ∼79% degradation with first-order kinetics (k = 0.0726 day

    Abstract An esophageal stricture is an abnormal tightening of the esophageal lumen. Benign strictures are often caused by gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and are more common in patients over 40 years. When caused by GERD, these strictures develop when acid from the stomach regurgitates into the esophagus, leading to inflammation, fibrosis, and eventual narrowing of the lumen. This case report aims to highlight the importance of obtaining a detailed history in discovering the underlying cause of these strictures. We present a unique case of a young female presenting with dysphagia several months after experiencing Hyperemesis gravidarum. She was found to have a long esophageal stricture that would eventually recur within a few weeks of therapeutic intervention. The pathological report confirmed benign disease, but she ultimately would require surgical intervention for her condition.

    Abstract Introduction: Laparoscopic Bariatric surgery despite being minimally invasive can cause moderate to severe pain in the immediate postoperative period. Adequate pain management remains a major challenge. Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block is a regional anesthesia technique which blocks the sensory nerve supply of anterior-lateral abdominal wall.
    Aims and objectives: Primary: evaluate Laparoscopic versus ultrasound (USG)-guided TAP block on immediate post-operative analgesia after undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery. Secondary: compare cost effectiveness of Laparoscopic versus ultrasound-guided TAP block after undergoing bariatric surgery.
    Materials and methods: Randomized Single blind study undertaken after sample size was calculated by (N) = 2(Z
    Results: Group I (N = 61 53F/8 M) & Group II (N = 60 42F/18 M) were demographically comparable. Group I (3.58 ± 0.67) had significantly lower procedure time compared to Group II (12.47 ± 1.61) (p-Value < 0.001). First rescue analgesia was administered at 7.07 ± 2.61 h in Group I vs 7.21 ± 2.39 h in Group II (p-Value 0.659). In first 24 h rescue analgesic dose requirement in Group I was 1.29 ± 0.53 vs 1.39 ± 0.50 in Group II (p-Value 0.487). VAS scores during rest and movement till 24 h post-operative were statistically similar. Procedural cost was more in group II.
    Conclusion: Laparoscopic-guided TAP block is a safe and cost-effective approach for postoperative pain management after bariatric surgery and provides similar comparable analgesic effect as the USG-TAP block. Laparoscopic TAP is a surgeon delivered, easy to administer and significantly less time-consuming procedure which is feasible even when an ultrasound machine is not available.

    Abstract Hemoglobin E (HbE) is the most prevalent hemoglobinopathy in the eastern Indian subcontinent. We presented the case of a 53-year-old male from Nepal with a history of multiple blood transfusions who presented with abdominal fullness for 15 years and easy fatigability for 2 months. He had pallor and massive splenomegaly. Laboratory parameters showed pancytopenia with microcytic anemia, indirect hyperbilirubinemia, target cells in the peripheral smear and iron overload. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen showed multiple splenic infarcts. Hemoglobin electrophoresis was suggestive of HbE homozygous disease. Based on these findings, we made a diagnosis of HbE homozygous disease. We provided symptomatic treatment and folic acid supplementation and counseled him for splenectomy and genetic screening. Our case highlighted the uncommon presentation of Hb E disease.
