    Abstract Introduction CDK4/6 inhibitors currently approved for patients with hormone-receptor-positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer include palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib. This study aims to report on the treatment outcomes and real-world data regarding the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors in the treatment of ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer at a tertiary care institute in Eastern India. Materials and methods The present study is a retrospective analysis of data from patients with metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer who were treated with CDK4/6 inhibitors at a tertiary care institute in Eastern India between 2015 and 2022. The data were collected from online records in the departmental files and analyzed for the primary baseline characteristics of the patients, tumors, and response rates, including partial response (PR), complete response (CR), progressive disease (PD), and stable disease (SD), as defined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria version 1.1. The treatment administered, progression-free survival (PFS), and toxicity were also evaluated. Results From 2015 to 2022, 24 eligible patients were treated with CDK4/6 inhibitors for metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer. The average duration of follow-up was 25 months. Out of the 24 patients, 15 (62.5%) were taking Tab. ribociclib, six (25%) were taking Tab. palbociclib, and three (12.5%) were taking Tab. abemaciclib. CDK4/6 was used as a first-line therapy for 16 patients, while eight patients received it as a second-line treatment. Out of the total number of patients, six (25%) had stable disease, 13 (54.2%) had a partial response, and four (16.7%) had progressive disease. In total, of the eligible patients, five (20.8%) had grade I neutropenia, seven (29.2%) had grade II neutropenia, and four (16.7%) had grade III neutropenia. At five years, the PFS rate estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method was 50% (95% CI: 47.89-69.31). Conclusion Ribociclib and palbociclib have improved PFS in patients with metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer. Both drugs have well-tolerated toxicity, allowing patients to continue taking them for an extended period of time. CDK4/6 inhibitors have a higher response rate than the other agents.

    Abstract Objective: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery has its own set of risks and complications. This study from a single center and a single surgeon analyzes various risk factors for complications and tries to establish if there is a learning curve effect in minimizing the complications.
    Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis of 519 patients (1024 leads) who underwent DBS surgery and 232 patients who underwent implantable pulse generator replacement (IPG), by a single surgeon, between the years 1999 and 2019 was performed. Perioperative and hardware related complications were evaluated.
    Results: The follow-up period ranged from six months to 20 years. Surgery-related complications occurred in 46 (8.9%) cases which included confusion in 31 (5.98%), intracerebral hemorrhage in 7 (1.3%), vasovagal attack in 3 (0.58%), respiratory distress in 2 (0.38%), postoperative aggressiveness in 1 (0.19%), and blepharospasm in 2 (0.38%) patients. Complications related to the DBS hardware were found in 35 cases, including erosion and infection in 22 (2.95%), inaccurate lead placement or migration in 6 (0.6%) lead fracture/extension wire failure in 2 (0.26%), IPG malfunction in 2 (0.26%), and hardware discomfort in 3 (0.4%) cases. In three patients, one lead was repositioned. In cases of infection, 87% of patients had either partial or complete removal of hardware. There was no mortality. The complications were analyzed for every 100 DBS procedures. There was a significant drop in the percentage of complications in from 23% in the first 100 cases to 7% in the last 100 cases (p < 0.0001).
    Conclusion: Confusion remains the most frequent operative and perioperative complication. Erosion and infection of the surgical site represents the most frequent hardware complication. DBS surgery is safe and the complication rates are acceptably low. The complication rate also decreases with cumulative years of experience, demonstrating a learning curve effect.

    Abstract The clinical application of DBS has become manifold and there has been a tremendous growth in DBS technology in the last few decades making it safer and user friendly. The earlier concept of its delayed application in motor fluctuations of Parkinson's disease has been replaced by Class-I evidence of EARLY-STIM trial in 2013, leading to its FDA approval to be used in early-stage despite criticism. Various studies have provided evidence of beneficial effects of bilateral STN-DBS on both motor as well as nonmotor symptoms and different new targets such as the pedunculopontine nucleus, posterior subthalamic area or caudal zona incerta, centromedian-parafascicular complex, and substantia nigra pars reticulata have now become a new area of interest in addition to the subthalamic nucleus and globus pallidus internus for the alleviation of both motor and nonmotor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. New data has confirmed that the DBS is clinically as effective and safe in elderly patients as it is in younger ones. Technological advances like current steering, directional leads, and closed-loop DBS are directed towards reducing the stimulation-induced adverse effects and preservation of the battery life for a longer period. Results of the long-term efficacy of DBS on Parkinson's disease are now available. These have shown that as the motor benefit continues, the clinical progression of Parkinson's disease also continues. We plan to discuss all these in this paper.

    Abstract Background: Young women with breast cancer (BC) are not represented in the trials on hypofractionation. In this study we compared outcomes in young patients with BC to their older counterparts treated with hypofractionated radiotherapy (RT) in a regional cancer centre in India.
    Materials and methods: Between January 1990 to December 2010, women with BC, treated with hypofractionated RT dose of 35-40 Gy/15#/3 weeks were divided into two groups, ≤ 35 years and > 35 years. Outcomes compared were locoregional recurrence rate (LRR), locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS), disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS) and toxicities. LRRFS, DFS and OS were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
    Results: Of total 2244 patients, 359 were ≤ 35 years of age and 1885 were > 35 years. Patient and disease characteristics were comparable between the two groups, except that comorbidities were significantly higher in the > 35 years age group, more patients aged ≤ 35 years had nodal N3 disease, received chemotherapy and RT to internal mammary nodes and more patients in the > 35 years group received hormonal therapy. Median follow up was 10 years (range 1-30 years). LRR and distant metastases were comparable between the two groups. However, synchronous LRR and distant metastases were significantly higher in the ≤ 35 years group 18 (5.1%) as compared to the > 35 years group 39 (2.1%) with p = 0.018. Estimated 10-year LRRFS, DFS and OS were 92%
    Conclusion: Young BC patients had higher LRR and distant metastases. LRRFS, DFS and toxicities were comparable between the two groups. However, OS was poorer in young BC patients with stage 2 and 3 disease.

    Abstract Major portion of wheat grain consist of carbohydrate, mainly starch. The proportion of amylose and amylopectin in starch greatly influence the end product quality. Advancement in understanding starch biosynthesis pathway and modulating key genes has enabled the genetic modification of crops resulting in enhanced starch quality. However, the regulation of starch biosynthesis genes still remains unexplored. So, to expand the limited knowledge, here, we characterized a Ser/Thr kinase, SnRK1α in wheat and determined its role in regulating starch biosynthesis. SnRK1 is an evolutionary conserved protein kinase and share homology to yeast SNF1. Yeast complementation assay suggests TaSnRK1α restores growth defect and promotes glycogen accumulation. Domain analysis and complementation assay with truncated domain proteins suggest the importance of ATP-binding and UBA domain in TaSnRK1α activity. Sub-cellular localization identified nuclear and cytoplasmic localization of TaSnRK1α in tobacco leaves. Further, heterologous over-expression (O/E) of TaSnRK1α in Arabidopsis not only led to increase in starch content but also enlarges the starch granules. TaSnRK1α was found to restore starch accumulation in Arabidopsis kin10. Remarkably, TaSnRK1α O/E increases the AGPase activity suggesting the direct regulation of rate limiting enzyme AGPase involved in starch biosynthesis. Furthermore, in vitro and in vivo interaction assay reveal that TaSnRK1α interacts with AGPase large sub-unit. Overall, our findings indicate that TaSnRK1α plays a role in starch biosynthesis by regulating AGPase activity.

    Abstract Background: In this study, we compared outcomes in young and very young patients with breast cancer (BC).
    Materials and methods: Between January 1990 to December 2010, 414 young women (age ≤35 years) with BC were registered in the radiotherapy (RT) outpatient department. Patients were divided into young (31-35 years) and very young (18-30 years). They were compared for clinical, pathological characteristics, and treatment-related factors such as RT and systemic therapy. Outcomes compared between the two groups were locoregional recurrence rate (LRR), local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicities. LRFS, DFS, and OS were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
    Results: Out of 414 patients, 138 and 276 were very young and young, respectively. Clinical, pathological, and treatment characteristics were balanced between the two groups except for more patients in the young group who had pN3 disease and received hormonal therapy; 41 (15%) versus seven (5%) and 171 (62%) versus 62 (45%) in the very young group, respectively. Median follow-up was 84 months (range 12-363 months). LR was seen in 16 (11.6%) and 25 (9%) patients in the very young and young groups, respectively (p = 0.28). The hazard ratios for LR, disease recurrence, and death in the very young group relative to the young group were 1.11 (p = 0.25), 1.0 (p = 1.0), and 1.05 (p = 0.79), respectively. Estimated 10-year LRFS, DFS and OS were 80% versus 86%, 63% versus 61%, and 66% versus 64% in the very young and young groups, respectively. Lymphedema, cardiac toxicity, and second malignancy developed in seven (5%) versus 23 (8%), one (1%) versus three (1%), and seven (5%) versus 18 (7%) patients in the very young and young groups, respectively.
    Conclusion: In very young and young patients with BC, there was no significant difference in LRR, LRFS, DFS, or OS. Toxicities were also comparable between the two groups.
