    Abstract An artery may be entered on the dorsum of the hand with the mistaken belief that it is a vein. Intraarterial injection of drugs is one of the dreadful consequences of accidental intraarterial cannulation. In this case of a 3-month-old infant, we emphasize the fact that careful observation can prevent unintentional intraarterial drug injection via an 'assumed intravenous' cannula and prevent the associated morbidity. When there is a suspicion of an intraarterial placement of venous cannula, it is of paramount significance to confirm before the injection of medications. Aberrant arterial anatomy should be kept in mind, particularly in children on the dorsum of the hand, where placement of an intravenous cannula is usually considered safe.

    Abstract Background: Toric Intraocular lenses (IOLs) are supposed to be aligned at a particular axis for spectacle-free vision for distance. The evolution of topographers and optical biometers has made it quite achievable for us to aim the target. However, the result sometimes remains unpredictable. A big aspect of this depends on the preop axis marking for toric IOL alignment. Errors in axis marking have been reduced recently with the array of different toric markers in the market, but still we see postoperative refractive surprises due to faulty marking.
    Purpose: In this video, we present a novel slit lamp-based toric marker innovation, STORM, which gives us a hands-free approach to a reliable and accurate axis marking on the cornea. The axis marker is a simple modification to our age-old marker, with the advantage of no touch and slit-lamp assistance, which will make it error free and easy to use.
    Synopsis: The present innovation answers the problem statement of stable, economical, and accurate marking solution. Many a times, hand-holding devices create inaccurate and stressed condition while marking the cornea before corneal surgery.
    Highlights: The invention can be used for marking of accurate and easy astigmatic axis of a toric IOL preoperatively, that is, before the surgery. If the appropriate device is used to mark the cornea, it would impact the outcome of surgery. This device also makes the patient and the surgeon comfortable to mark the cornea with accuracy and without hesitation.

    Abstract Nowadays when conventional plastic is being looked as a menace, the possibility of it being replaced with polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) which are biodegradable, environment friendly and biocompatible thermoplastics is not remote. PHAs are a fascinating group of biopolyesters stored within the cytoplasm of numerous bacterial cells as energy and carbon reserves. PHAs signify the best promising biological substitute to certain conventional petrochemical plastics which have wide range of applications in different industries such as biomedical sector, packaging, toners for printing, and adhesives for coating, etc. In the present study, PHAs producing bacterial strains were screened by Sudan black B staining and confirmed by Nile blue A staining. Out of forty bacterial strains showing positive results, six bacterial strains exhibited comparatively higher PHAs production. The highest PHAs producing bacterial strain was identified using 16s rRNA sequencing. Optimization of process parameters was performed by using one factor at a time (OFAT) approach. The isolated bacterium was able to synthesize PHAs when various agro-industrial wastes such as domestic kitchen waste, mixed fruit pulp, sugarcane molasses, and waste flour from bread factory were screened as a carbon substrate in the growth medium. The results showed accumulation of 44.5% PHAs of cell dry weight using domestic kitchen waste as carbon substrate. The characterization of biopolymers was performed using FTIR and XRD analysis. The commercial exploitation of results of this study may serve twin purposes of addressing the challenge of high production cost of PHAs being the major constraint in replacing petro-based plastics as well as address the problem of disposal of recurring domestic kitchen waste and other agro-industrial waste.

    Abstract High-dose chemotherapy with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) improved 5-year overall survival rates in relapsed/refractory germ cell tumors (GCTs) from 10% to 52%. Nearly 30% of GCT patients are deemed poor mobilizers after receiving several lines of prior therapy. There is limited data available regarding upfront plerixafor use in GCT patients. We predicted upfront plerixafor use would increase the amount of stem cells collected preventing subsequent mobilizations and improve time to curative therapy. A retrospective, single center, chart review of adult GCT patients who received plerixafor upfront for mobilization at a single center between January 1, 2013 and August 31, 2021 was performed. The primary objective was to evaluate the rate of successful peripheral blood CD34

    Abstract Purpose: Amblyopia is a serious condition resulting in monocular impairment of vision. Although traditional treatment improves vision, we attempted to explore the results of perceptual learning in this study.
    Methods: This prospective cohort study included all patients with amblyopia who were subjected to perceptual learning. The presenting data on vision, stereopsis and contrast sensitivity were documented in a pretested online format, and the pre- and post-treatment information was compared using descriptive, cross-tabulation and comparative methods on SPSS 2.2. The mean values were obtained, and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
    Results: The cohort consisted of 47 patients (23 females and 24 males) with a mean age of 14.11 ± 7.13 years. A statistically significant improvement was detected in visual acuity after the perceptual learning session, and the median follow-up period was 17 days. Also, significant improvements were observed in stereopsis but not in the visual outcomes among the age groups.
    Conclusion: Perceptual learning with hand-eye coordination is an effective method for managing amblyopia. This approach can improve vision in all age groups. However, visual improvement is significantly influenced by ocular alignment.

    Abstract Background: Open globe injury is a serious sight threatening condition. Full-thickness, non-selfsealing corneal lacerations require repair in the operating room. During repair, debridement of the wound is an important step. Incarceration of the intraocular structures in the wound eg. Iris, lens capsule, vitreous leads to improper healing if not removed properly.
    Purpose: To demonstrate the technique of wound debridement in open globe injury.
    Synopsis: : Manual removal of incarcerated tissue contents leads to incomplete cleaning & enormous traction on intra ocular contents. In this video, we have tried vitrectomy cutter with higher vacuum for cleaning the edges of the wound especially in the posterior aspect and debri removal, followed by easy suturing. All tissue in the wound edges are removed effectively without any traction on intraocular contents.
    Highlights: : Vitrectomy cutter is a very useful and effective tool to clean wound edges and good apposition & suturing of wound.
