In Brief Objective: To evaluate whether resident participation in operations influences postoperative outcomes. Background: Identification of potential differences outcome associated with may facilitate planning from educational and health resource perspectives. Methods: From the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database (2005–2007), outcomes were compared for patients without (RES vs no-RES). Groups matched a 2:1 ratio, based on age, sex, specialty, surgical procedure,...

The benefits of early postoperative recovery, reduced pain, pulmonary dysfunction, and hospitalization after laparoscopic colectomy may improve outcome over open in obese patients. This case-matched study compares outcomes colectomy.A total 94 patients with a body mass index >30 (Jan 1999-June 2003) were identified from prospective database matched to cases for age, gender, index, American Society Anesthesiologists class, procedure, indication, date surgery.

Anal melanoma is rare and associated with a poor outcome. Previous studies that have reported outcomes after surgical treatment are limited by both small number of participants at single centers only. This study evaluates survival patients undergoing surgery for anal from prospective, population-based database.Characteristics rectal resection or local excision the anus, canal, overlapping region rectum 1982 to 2002 were obtained Surveillance, Epidemiology End Results database compared.A...

Developmental models of GH deficiency (GHD) and excess indicate that is positively associated with β-cell mass. Therefore, the reduction in levels observed age weight gain may contribute to age-related decline function. To test this hypothesis, mass function were assessed a mouse model adult-onset, isolated GHD (AOiGHD). β-Cell did not differ between low-fat (LF)-fed AOiGHD controls. However, high fat-fed mice displayed impaired expansion bromodeoxyuridine-labeled islet cells, whereas vitro...

Background: Vitex negundo and Andrographis paniculata have a multitude of remedies for several diseases. As the treatment fever was one such remedy, we found that not much work has been done on antipyretic effect these plants. Aims Objective: The aims objective this study were to evaluate compare activity aqueous leaf extracts V. A. in rabbits. Materials Methods: Laboratory breed New Zealand strains rabbits either sex weighing 1000–1500 g used study. animals divided into five groups...

To propose minimally invasive percutaneous techniques in the management of high output chylous ascites, a known potential complication retroperitoneal surgery associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Management has traditionally been based on successful treatment reported literature. However, refractory or high-output leaks often prove difficult to treat there is little evidence superior management. We report maceration embolization for high-volume abdominal chyle leak after...

Chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for anal cancer. Surgery reserved failure of therapy, but there are limited data examining outcomes after surgery. From a prospective population-based database on radiation and surgical we compare patients with cancer undergoing rectal resection alone. Patients rectum initial (SRT) squamous cell carcinoma anus, canal, cloacogenic zone, overlapping lesions canal from 1983 to 2002 were identified Surveillance, Epidemiology End Results database....

289 Background: The micropapillary variant of transitional cell cancer(MPTCC) is an aggressive pathological subtype bladder cancer and radical cystectomy recommended for patients with non−muscle invasive disease. This study compares the treatment patterns survival outcome in 121 patients. Methods: Patients MPTCC (code 8131) were identified from Surveillance Epidemiology End Results (SEER 17) database. Data was analyzed demographics, stage, treatment, overall (OS) specific (CSS). Appropriate...

Background: Competency-based undergraduate curriculum has been introduced by MCI and it applicable since the 2019 batch of Indian medical graduates (IMG). There prototype move in learning from teacher centered to student centered. Aims Objectives: The study intended determine attitude feedback Phase-II students regarding competency-based education (CBME). Materials Methods: This research was a cross-sectional descriptive conducted online. Phase II were required complete an online survey...

We report on a 43-year-old, asymptomatic female who presented with incidental finding of left adrenal mass. MRI gave concerns for possible pheochromocytoma but markers were not elevated as expected. 24-hour urine dopamine levels (6988 μ g/day) significantly elevated. The patient successfully underwent robotic assisted radical adrenalectomy and was diagnosed secreting pheochromocytoma. Pathology revealed increased malignant potential associated the tumor. full metastatic workup, which...

There has been minimal research regarding the clavicle’s growth and its clinical implications in late adolescent early adult population. Previous studies have evaluated postnatal clavicle to age 18 without analysing through of secondary ossification center closure. The purpose this study was (1) determine length age-related males females from 12 25 years (2) specifically analyse adolescence. This a retrospective analysis chest radiographs patients aged 12–25 years. ruler tool used measure...

Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMC) of the penis is a rare malignant tumor which has not previously been described in literature. Genetic associations exist EMC that could potentially help guide early diagnosis and treatment this type penile cancer. This serves as first reported case such cancer penis, highlights indolent course it takes to presentation, need for an appropriate histopathologic evaluation correct diagnosis.

488 Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) after oncologic surgery is a known risk and therefore guidelines recommend extended VTE prophylaxis up to 4 weeks for these populations. This often costly cumbersome patients, as it requires self-injections with enoxaparin. The FDA has the indication apixaban include deep venous thrombosis (DVT) pulmonary embolism (PE) in adults who have undergone hip or knee replacement surgery. objective of this study was identify safety concerns using an time...
