Abstract Scientific papers are the driving force for research, information dissemination, and policymaking that directly impacts society. Thus, ethical practices elixir of publications. Adherence to promotes integrity in research publication. Transgression ethics is thus considered a poison science. Although there no definition ethics, it includes systematic approach not only recommends but also defends protects concepts conduct right wrong. Therefore, principles should be strictly adhered...
Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is characterized by unpredictable acute attacks that impair the patient's quality of life (QoL) not only due to impact on functional abilities caused edema but also pain and other symptoms, including fatigue, nausea, vomiting. QoL studies in patients with HAE have been carried out Indian subcontinent. Hence, we this study assess identify factors associated impaired HAE. This was a cross-sectional observational confirmed cases HAE, aged >18 years, using score...
Abstract Introduction The NELA study started in 2012 and has produced several national reports which describe hospital-level outcomes after emergency laparotomy. Our DGH identified local trends performance over the past decade Methods Each report was interrogated. Performance of our hospital each process measure compared between years. Contributing factors to were explored. Results There have been 1554 cases. number laparotomies performed increased from 142 Year 1 231 9. Case ascertainment...

Abstract Introduction Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is a rare X‐linked inborn error of immunity characterized by microthrombocytopenia, infections, eczema, and increased predisposition to develop autoimmunity malignancy. Flow cytometric assay for determining WAS protein (WASp) rapid cost‐effective tool detecting patients. However, very few studies described WASp expression in female carriers. Most carriers are clinically asymptomatic. Active screening family members helps identify carriers,...

Alta, a scarlet‐red solution used by some Indian women as cosmetic to colour their feet, was found be associated with depigmentation at the site of application. Chromatographic and spectroscopic analysis 3 brands alta confirmed presence 2 dyes: Crocein Scarlet MOO (CSM) (brilliant crocein) rhodamine B (tetraethyl rhodamine). Patch testing produced application alta, CSM para‐phenylenediamine (PPD). Although PPD has been reported produce leukoderma, azo dyes have not previously depigmenting agents.
