Emerging magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers of hepatic steatosis have demonstrated tremendous promise for accurate quantification triglyceride concentration. These methods quantify the proton density fat‐fraction (PDFF), which reflects concentration triglycerides in tissue. Previous vivo studies compared MRI‐PDFF with histologic grading assessment steatosis. However, correlation underlying content remained unknown. The aim this ex study was to validate accuracy as an biomarker Using...
Neural tissue engineering focuses on development of biomaterials that could support regeneration neurons after trauma as well injury caused by degenerative diseases.

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) or Kala-azar has been a major public health problem in Bihar, India, for several decades. A few VL infected districts including Vaishali have reported >600 cases annually. Hence, 2015, the Government of India entrusted ICMR-Rajendra Memorial Research Institute Medical Sciences, Patna, to implement an integrated control strategy achieving elimination target (<1 case per 10,000 people at block level) District Bihar.This study was conducted between January 2015 and...
Existing organ weight charts used by pathologists for patients undergoing medical autopsy do not illustrate the effect of obesity and age on weights among a general population older individuals with multiple comorbidities.We retrospectively reviewed 300 reports to extract data analyze weights.In both men women, there were statistically significant increases in body mass index (BMI) but decreases liver, spleen, kidneys. In men, increased was associated left ventricular wall thickness, whereas...
In the developing mammalian brain, inhibition of NMDA receptor can induce widespread neuroapoptosis, inhibit neurogenesis and cause impairment learning memory. Although some mechanistic insights into adverse neurological actions these antagonists exist, our understanding full spectrum developmental events affected by early exposure to chemical agents in brain is still limited. Here we attempt gain impact pharmacologically induced excitatory/inhibitory imbalance infancy on proteome using mass...
Acute poisoning is one of the major medical emergencies with significant morbidity and mortality.Most due to intention deliberate self-harm. [1]Accidental occupational exposures pesticides leading acute or chronic have been seen in farmers children.The World Health Organization (WHO) reported that around 0.3 million people die various annually, out which 200000 deaths are organophosphorous alone. [2,3]The incidence much more higher developing resource-limited countries.Agricultural such as...
Abstract Background Breast cancer in females and prostate males are two of the most common cancers United States, literature suggests that they share similar features. However, it is unknown whether occurrence these at county level States correlated. We analyzed Caucasian age-adjusted average annual incidence rates for breast from National Cancer Institute State Registries to determine there was a spatial correlation between conditions had patterns. Results There significant by (r = 0.332, p...
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Bihar State (India) continues to be endemic, despite the existence of effective treatment and a vector control program disease morbidity. A clear understanding spatio-temporal distribution VL may improve surveillance implementation. This study explored trends dynamics endemicity at meso-scale level Vaishali District, based on geographical information systems (GIS) tools spatial statistical analysis. GIS database was used integrate case data from area between...
Since May 2001, imatinib mesylate has become the first-line therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) but survival pattern by age, sex, and ethnicity is not clear.We analyzed Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER*Stat) database to compare rates in CML among Caucasians, African-Americans (AA), other races, also within each race see differences from pre-imatinib (1973-2000) post-imatinib eras (2002-2008). We used Z-tests SEER*Stat relative categorized race, gender, age groups (all...

There exists a north-south pattern to the distribution of prostate cancer in U.S., with north having higher rates than south. The current hypothesis for spatial this disease is low vitamin D levels individuals living at northerly latitudes; however, explanation only partially explains incidence cancer. Using U.S. county-level ecological study design, we provide evidence that other meteorological parameters further explain variation across In general, colder temperature and drier climate...
Remote sensing and geographical information technologies were used to discriminate areas of high low risk for contracting kala-azar or visceral leishmaniasis. Satellite data digitally processed generate maps land cover spectral indices, such as the normalised difference vegetation index wetness index. To map estimated vector abundance indoor climate data, local polynomial interpolations based on weightage values. Attribute layers prepared illiteracy unemployed proportion population...
Epidemiological studies to assess risk factors for breast cancer often do not differentiate between different types of cancers. We applied a general linear model determine whether data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program on annual county level age-adjusted incidence rates with without estrogen receptors (ER+ ER-) were associated environmental pollutants.Our final explained approximately 38% variation in rate ER+ cancer. In contrast, we only able explain 14% ER- same...
Kala-azar or visceral leishmanisis (VL) is known to be endemic in several States of India including West Bengal (WB). Only meager information available on the vector dynamics its species, Phlebotomus argentipes particularly relation control measure from this State. Hence, a pilot study was undertaken assess strategy and impact two districts WB, India.
Abstract A subset of coronary arterial dissections is associated with eosinophilic periarteritis ( ECPA ); however, the pathogenesis process remains unclear. Mast cells normally reside in adventitia and are known mediators inflammatory conditions such as type I hypersensitivity reactions. We report two cases which dissection was detected at autopsy. Tryptase, CD 68, 4, 8, 1a immunohistochemical staining performed to better characterize inflammation. While eosinophils represented a prominent...
Methadone continues to be a widely used maintenance therapy for opiate dependence. However, methadone-related deaths have been reported frequently over 4 decades now. Anoxic brain injury with pulmonary edema secondary respiratory depression is the recognized mechanism of methadone death, although pathological intracranial findings are rarely described in deaths. A selective area has never use. We present case 23-year-old man who had acute necrosis bilateral globi pallidi and systemic...
