This prospective comparative study explores the efcacy of laparoscopic hernia repair (Total Extraperitoneal Repair – TEP) versus open Lichtenstein's repair in 50 cases of unilateral inguinal hernias. Employing convenience sampling, patients were randomly assigned to undergo either technique after pre-operative preparation. Postoperative care meticulously monitored pain, bleeding, urinary retention, and wound complications. Utilizing statistical analyses, including descriptive statistics and chi-square tests, the study scrutinized outcomes based on specic parameters. Results indicated a marked reduction in postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, and earlier return to work with TEP repair. However, TEP repair proved to be more expensive. The study's limitations include the subjective nature of pain assessment and the challenge of long-term follow-up. These ndings contribute insights into the comparative advantages and limitations of laparoscopic and open hernia repair techniques, aiding clinicians in informed decision-making.

Percutaneous renal biopsy is widely used for diagnosis, prognosis, and management of nephropathies. Early identication and embolization of the involved artery aids in effective management of the vascular complications and defers the need for nephrectomy. In this study, we aimed to evaluate various vascular injuries after renal biopsy requiring interventions. Pseudoaneurysm was the most common form of arterial injury. Target vessel was identied by angiography and successful embolization was done deferring nephrectomy. Deaths occurred due to haemorrhage.

Background: India's population growth demands effective contraception methods to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality. Limited access to contraceptives underscores the need for practical solutions. Ormeloxifene, a non-steroidal contraceptive, offers a unique approach without hormonal disruption. This study evaluates Ormeloxifene's use, focusing on continuation rates and reasons for discontinuation in diverse demographic groups. Methods: The study included 177 women aged 18-35, divided into postpartum, postabortal, and interval contraception groups. Ormeloxifene initiation details and follow-up visits were documented. Demographic, menstrual, obstetric, and medical data were collected, ensuring condentiality. Participants were evaluated for menstrual complaints, side effects, and willingness to continue. Results: Ormeloxifene demonstrated a high continuation rate (98.8% at 3 months and 94.4% at 6 months). Menstrual complaints, primarily delayed menses, were common side effects. Religion and socioeconomic status inuenced contraceptive practices. Ormeloxifene's safety and acceptability were comparable across different initiation periods. Conclusion: Ormeloxifene proved to be an acceptable and safe contraceptive option for women in postpartum, postabortal, and interval periods. Despite minor menstrual complaints, it had a high continuation rate, indicating its potential as an effective contraceptive method in diverse populations. Adequate counseling and information dissemination are crucial for managing expected side effects and ensuring user satisfaction.

Background: Intense bleeding during general anesthesia is the major limitation during ACDF surgery. It affects operative eld visibility and increases complications. Hypotensive anesthesia is preferred to improve surgical outcomes. This study aimed to compare the efcacy of Propofol and Dexmedetomidine infusion for hypotensive anesthesia in patients undergoing ACDF surgery. To compare the efcacy and safety of Objective: Dexmedetomidine and Propofol for hypotensive anesthesia in ACDF surgeries. This prospective Materials and methods: randomized trial was conducted in 60 adult patients who were scheduled for ACDF under general anesthesia. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: group P (n = 30) received Propofol infusion of 100-150mcg/kg/min and group D (n = 30) received dexmedetomidine with a loading dose of 1 mcg/kg diluted in 10 mL 0.9% saline to be infused over 10 min after induction, followed by maintenance infusion of 0.4-0.8 mcg/kg/h. The infusions were titrated to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) between 60 and 70 mm Hg. Hemodynamic control, Intraoperative blood loss, Quality of the surgical eld and patient recovery were recorded. In our study, the mean arterial pressure and heart rate were signi Results: cantly lower in group D throughout the surgery than in group P. Blood loss was signicantly higher in group P (615.18 ± 18.15 ml) than in group D (480.50 ± 14.50 ml). The Surgical eld visibility was comparable between the groups. The awakening time was signicantly shorter in group D than group P. In our study, we observed that both Dexmedetomidine and Propofol Conclusion: are efcacious and safe for controlled hypotension during ACDF; however, Dexmedetomidine provides better hemodynamic control and is associated with lesser degree of sedation without any signicant adverse effects.

Background and Objective: Periodontitis is a highly prevalent disease, and it affects approximately 10.5% to 12% of the world's population. Tobacco smoking adversely affects periodontal health. ALP is an essential enzyme, as it is part of the normal turnover of periodontal ligament and bone homeostasis. Saliva has many advantages as a diagnostic media. With this background this study was undertaken to evaluate Serum and Salivary Alkaline phosphatase level in tobacco cigarette smokers with chronic periodontitis. Methods: A total sample size of 40 subjects with age range of 25-65 years were included and were divided into 2 groups. Group I included 20 male healthy never smokers as control group and Group II included 20 male subjects with the habit of tobacco cigarette smoking using more than 5 cigarettes per day with onset of minimum six months duration and above as study group. Alkaline phosphatase level in serum and saliva was estimated. The obtained data was subjected to statistical analysis using Mann Whitney test and Spearman's correlation test. Results: It was found that Serum ALP was higher than Salivary ALP and there was a signicant correlation between Serum ALP and Salivary ALP in Group I (Control group) and Group II (Study group). Serum ALP and Salivary ALP were both increased in Group II (Study group) compared to healthy controls. In Group II (Study group) with an increase in number of cigarettes smoked and duration of smoking there was an increase in both Serum ALP and Salivary ALP. In Group II (Study group) Serum ALP and Salivary ALP were higher in generalized periodontitis than localized periodontitis indicating the severity of chronic periodontitis. Conclusion: We therefore recommend salivary ALP as an early potential biomarker in tobacco cigarette smokers with chronic periodontitis for diagnosis, monitoring the disease progression, prognosis and treatment outcome.
背景和目的:牙周炎是一种高发疾病,全球约有 10.5% 至 12% 的人患有这种疾病。吸烟会对牙周健康产生不利影响。ALP 是一种重要的酶,因为它是牙周韧带和骨平衡正常周转的一部分。唾液作为诊断介质有很多优点。在此背景下,本研究对患有慢性牙周炎的烟草烟民的血清和唾液碱性磷酸酶水平进行了评估。研究方法研究对象共 40 名,年龄在 25-65 岁之间,分为两组。第一组包括 20 名从不吸烟的健康男性受试者,作为对照组;第二组包括 20 名有吸烟习惯的男性受试者,作为研究组。对血清和唾液中的碱性磷酸酶水平进行了估计。采用曼-惠特尼检验(Mann Whitney test)和斯皮尔曼相关检验(Spearman's correlation test)对所得数据进行统计分析:结果发现,在第一组(对照组)和第二组(研究组)中,血清 ALP 高于唾液 ALP,并且血清 ALP 和唾液 ALP 之间存在显著的。与健康对照组相比,第二组(研究组)的血清 ALP 和唾液 ALP 均升高。在第二组(研究组)中,随着吸烟数量的增加和吸烟时间的延长,血清 ALP 和唾液 ALP 都有所增加。在第二组(研究组)中,全身性牙周炎患者的血清 ALP 和唾液 ALP 均高于局部性牙周炎患者,这表明慢性牙周炎的严重程度。结论:因此,我们建议将唾液 ALP 作为慢性牙周炎吸烟者的早期潜在生物标志物,用于诊断、监测疾病进展、预后和治疗效果。

Tobacco smoking adversely affects periodontal health. ALP is an\u0000essential enzyme, as it is part of the normal turnover of periodontal ligament and bone homeostasis. Saliva has many\u0000advantages as a diagnostic media. With this background this study was undertaken to evaluate Serum and Salivary Alkaline\u0000phosphatase level in tobacco cigarette smokers with chronic periodontitis. Methods: A total sample size of 40 subjects with age\u0000range of 25-65 years were included and were divided into 2 groups. Group I included 20 male healthy never smokers as control\u0000group and Group II included 20 male subjects with the habit of tobacco cigarette smoking using more than 5 cigarettes per day\u0000with onset of minimum six months duration and above as study group. Alkaline phosphatase level in serum and saliva was\u0000estimated. The obtained data was subjected to statistical analysis using Mann Whitney test and Spearman's correlation test.\u0000Results: It was found that Serum ALP was higher than Salivary ALP and there was a signicant correlation between Serum ALP\u0000and Salivary ALP in Group I (Control group) and Group II (Study group).

In the world of information technology, cloud computing has become a paradigm-shifting phenomenon that is completely changing how people and enterprises access, store, and utilize data. The paper offers a thorough analysis of the expansion, fundamental ideas, and applications of cloud computing. The paper starts off by reviewing the evolution of cloud computing historically before diving into the basic service models (IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS) and deployment structures (public, private, and hybrid) that dene the cloud environment. The paper also covers the underlying technologies, such as virtualization, containerization, and distributed computing, that enable scalable, exible, and reasonably priced cloud environments. An outline of security concerns in the context of the cloud, such as data encryption, identity management, and regulatory compliance, claries the challenges and solutions to protecting data in the cloud. The study also looks at advancements in the eld, highlighting how serverless designs, edge computing, and articial intelligence integration may affect cloud computing in the future. The abstract concludes by outlining the real-world implications of cloud adoption, including how it will impact resource management, business models, and IT infrastructure as a whole.
