    Abstract Background and objective The Medical Council of India [now replaced by the National Medical Commission (NMC)] has implemented a new competency-based curriculum for medical education. Eight competencies in the curriculum are related to the principles of disability-inclusive compassionate care. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge, perceptions, and attitudes among undergraduate medical students about people with disability after attending learning sessions on disability competency. Materials and methods After they attended the learning session during the foundation course, participants were evaluated by using a questionnaire involving 26 questions, of which 17 were based on the Likert scale to assess general perceptions towards the person with a disability, while three questions aimed to assess attitudes, and six closed-ended questions tried to assess knowledge about disability. Results In the present study, 79.7% (n=157) of the students thought that people with disabilities faced problems getting involved in society, and 81.2% (n=160) felt that it was harder for them to make friends than others. The majority of the students disagreed with the idea that people with disabilities are a burden on society (n=149, 75.6%) or their families (n=119, 60.4%); 65% (n=128) of the students thought that people with disabilities are more determined than others to reach their goals and achieve more owing to their disability (n=104, 52.85%). A total of 161 (81.7%) students disagreed with the statement that people with disabilities should not be optimistic about their future. A comparison of the pre- and post-test data revealed that students' knowledge regarding disability increased and they gained a more positive attitude towards people with a disability after attending teaching and learning sessions (p<0.0001). Conclusion Our findings showed a significant improvement in the undergraduate medical students' understanding and empathy toward individuals with disabilities following sessions on disability competency. Teaching and learning sessions on disability competencies for newly admitted students in medical school can sensitize, orient, increase knowledge, and develop positive attitudes toward people with disabilities. Further studies on the topic are needed involving different phases of clinical teaching.

    Abstract Objective: Even though oxidative and inflammatory bursts are a big part of renal reperfusion injury (RI/R), Pistia stratiotes (PS) has been used for a long time to stop these overreactions. People have said that it can drop both blood sugar and cholesterol. Hence, the goal of this study was to show how PS changed kidney reperfusion damage in both diabetic and normal rats.
    Materials and methods: In the study, 30 min of renal ischemia (RI) was followed by 1 h of recovery for each rat. Before the test, PS (100 mg/kg p. o.) was given to the animals for 7 days. Then, using the mixture from the separated kidney tissues, the antioxidant, inflammation, and histopathological effects were determined.
    Results: When compared to RI/R, diabetic rats given PS had lower blood sugar, aspartate aminotransferase, blood urea nitrogen, and creatinine, myeloperoxidase, C-reactive protein, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels in their urine.
    Conclusion: PS potentially worked in hyperglycemic rats protecting them against RI/R. It is possible that PS's ability to protect the kidneys of the test rats is due to its ability to fight free radicals, lower blood sugar, and stop inflammation.

    Abstract Hypochondriasis is a condition characterized by an unrealistic fear of having a serious medical illness resulting in health anxiety. Currently, no evidence-based pharmacological treatment options are available for the treatment of hypochondriasis. Since selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the first-line treatment option for anxiety disorders, they may be useful for relieving hypochondriasis symptoms. Moreover, off-label use of SSRIs in these cases is highly prevalent in clinical practice. Thus, in this study, we aimed to review the available literature to assess the role of SSRIs in the treatment of hypochondriacal symptoms. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Embase, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews from the date of inception to December 2022. We included only randomized clinical trials (RCTs) investigating the effect of SSRIs in the treatment of hypochondriacal symptoms. Non-RCTs, observation studies, and animal studies were excluded. The Risk of Bias 2 tool was used to assess the quality of included studies. Out of 2264 articles, six RCTs met our inclusion criteria. Studies have been conducted using different SSRIs in the treatment of primary hypochondriasis and hypochondriacal symptoms associated with other psychiatric disorders. All the studies have found that the use of SSRIs has some beneficial role in improving hypochondriacal symptoms. This suggests that SSRIs may be one of the promising pharmacological interventions in the treatment of hypochondriasis.

    Abstract To analyze the surgical benefits of bidirectional knotless barbed suture (BS) compared with conventional sutures for uterine closure during cesarean section. The databases were searched using the following keywords: "Cesarean Section," "Uterine closure," "Barbed suture" and "Conventional suture." Randomized control trials reporting the comparison of bidirectional knotless BS with conventional sutures for closing uterine incision were included. The outcome measures were closing time of uterine incision, the number of additional hemostatic sutures used, blood loss parameters, and the total duration of surgery. A random or fixed-effects model was used to obtain the pooled estimates using the inverse variance method. The heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 test and the GRADE approach was used to assess the quality of evidence. Out of 15 full-text assessed, three randomized controlled trials were included. We observed significantly short uterine incision closure time with BS [standardised mean difference -1.51; 95% confidence interval (CI): -1.97, -1.06; I2=64%; GRADE approach evidence: Moderate], significantly lesser need of additional hemostatic sutures (risk ratio: 0.39; 95% CI: 0.28, 0.54; I2=0%; GRADE approach evidence: High) and significantly less blood loss during uterine incision closure [-0.47 (95% CI:-0.75, -0.19); I2 =0%; GRADE approach evidence: moderate]. with no significant difference in total blood loss, the need of blood transfusion, and total duration of surgery. The use of bidirectional knotless BS for uterine closure can reduce suturing time and the additional suture requirement.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Robotics has been used in multiple areas of procedural medical intervention. Robotic percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been available since 2004. Its adoption has been slow with initial application in simple cases.
    Recent findings: With increasing adoption, robotic PCI has been applied to a broader variety of coronary substrates with demonstration of safety and efficacy. Improvements in the robotic console with future generation devices should add to the utility of this platform. Robotic PCI advances the innovations in endovascular space into a different dimension, removing the dependence of the procedure on patient-operator ergonomics and likely operator skill.
