Scapula is a flat triangular bone lies on chest wall from second to sixth ribs. Its lateral angle is truncated and shows variable morphology in shape. The objectives of the present study were to obtain morphometric data of scapulae and the glenoid cavity specifically the diameters and various shape of glenoid.: The present study was conducted on 90 right scapulae and 90 left scapulae. Metrical and nonmetrical measurements were noted. Length of scapulae, breadth of scapulae, height of Glenoid cavity, antero-posterior diameter 1 and antero-posterior diameter 2 were observed. Shape of Glenoid cavity was noted.Length of scapula on right side was 135.40±13.2mm and on left side it was 136.5±12.9mm. Breadth of scapula on right side was 98.7 ±7.2mm on left side it was 98.2±6.8mm but the difference was not statistically significant. The height of Glenoid cavity on right side was 35.2±2.9mm and on left side it was 35.8±3.1. Antero-posterior diameter 1 of Glenoid cavity on right side was 24.2±2.3 mm and on left side it was 23.9±2.1 mm. Antero-posterior diameter 2 of Glenoid cavity on right side was16.8±2.5 mm and on left side it was 16.7±2.4mm. The most common shape of glenoid cavity was pear shaped followed by oval and least common was inverted comma shape.Knowledge of various measurements of Glenoid cavity is important for prosthesis of shoulder orthoplasty. It is useful in evaluation of various pathological conditions of shoulder joint. Since this study was conducted on limited number of scapulae further clinical, cadaveric and radiological studies are required.

Physical Fitness Index (PFI) is a measure of the fitness of an individual. PFI reflects the cardiopulmonary status of an individual and his ability to recover after exercising. On the other hand Body mass Index (BMI) is an index for determining the stage of obesity and it is also used as a cardiopulmonary risk assessment factor. BMI is evaluated using weight and height of an individual. BMI is an index which is age and sex independent and a known epidemiological marker of nutritional status of adolescents. International obesity task force (IOTF-2000) has proposed the standards for adult’s obesity in Asia and India as follows: A cut off point of 18.5 kg/m is used to define thinness or acute under nutrition and a BMI of 23 kg/m indicates over nutrition. A BMI of over 25 kg/m refers to obesity. In this study we have checked if there exists any significant interrelationship of PFI and BMI of the college students of Madpur Region of West Midnapore District of West Bengal, India.

The variant anatomy of pelvic vasculature is reported in fewer studies, especially the internal iliac artery branching pattern. Branches of the internal iliac artery are more critical when considering procedures such as iliac bone grafting, surgical approach to fix pelvic fractures or iatrogenic vascular haemorrhages in the pelvis. The present case shows the variation in the right ileal system, i.e. the accessory Iliolumbar artery (ILA), in addition to the principal ILA on the right side, which supplies the iliac and lumbar region.

Anatomical variations and aberrations represent an ever-present challenge to clinicians in general and surgeons in particular. This is particularly true if the variation is rare and the clinical context doesn’t permit a thorough investigation, such as would happen intraoperatively. The unfamiliarity with abnormal anatomy and contextual time constraints may preclude their timely recognition, which may result, subsequently in significant morbidity. The shifting paradigms in anatomy education in both undergraduate and residency medical programs may be linked to an increasingly cited “abnormal anatomy “as a cause for morbidity and mortality in litigious literature. Therefore, Continuous, and self-directed learning, in the face of diminished formal anatomy curricula, is essential to achieving this end. In this case report we describe an incident of iatrogenic excision of a leaf of a bifid xiphisternum mistaken for a migrated ingested bone and the clinical lessons imparted from it. We also provide a relevant literature review.

This paper discusses SAIF (Sophisticated Analytical Instrument Facilities) approach, the stages of SAIF approach, and how it can be implemented in day-to-day life in medical education as well as in the health care system. The steps involved in SAIF are study the system, analyze the system, Implement and lastly take feedback. The SAIF approach can be broken down to help systematically build various healthcare sectors. It is an effective problem-solving method. SAIF approach is not limited to health care but can also be applied in other sectors and industries as well. Even in our daily life, we use it multiple times. Here, we discuss the practicality of this approach as well as what it has to offer and if it can be held in great esteem.

In a student academic learning process, process of plagiarism starts very early from preparation for assessment, followed by seminar presentation. This plagiaristic research practice knowingly or unknowingly gets inculcated in student as habit. Studies published on ethics in research practice until now are from developed nations where ethics in research is taught in undergraduate training itself. Aim of study is to investigate knowledge, attitude and practices towards plagiarism in undergraduate medical students at a teaching school in south East Asia.We adopted cross sectional study design and study was done during February-April 2022 in a sample of 200 undergraduate medical students to assess knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) towards plagiarism. All undergraduates (from 1 year to final year) of both genders were allowed to participate. Students not willing to be part of study were excluded. Validated questionnaire consisting of three sections addressing knowledge, attitude, and practice of plagiarism was utilized for assessment. Questionnaire consists of (a) Questions related to knowledge (b) Questions related to positive and negative attitudes towards plagiarism and (c) questions related to practice of plagiarism. Students were encouraged to fill all questions. These KAP Questionnaire forms were analysed after taking back from students and percentages were calculated. Data was analyzed by using Microsoft excel and Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) statistical software, version 16.Out of 200 participants, 52% were females and 48% were males. Mean±SD age of participants is 18.7±2.6 years. Majority of students (80%) know aboutethical principles in research and practices of plagiarism. Half of students (50%) had experience with research and instances of plagiarism and some know problems they should encounter if they do plagiarism. 70% appropriately answered domains which include plagiarism, 65% answered appropriately practices that may be considered as plagiarism and 50% answered appropriately practices that may not be regarded as plagiarism and only 40% appropriately answered republishing one’s own previous works whether to be considered plagiarism or notResponse to practices of plagiarism is around 20 to 40%. Questions like whether self-plagiarism should be considered serious or not has same response.This shows that majority of undergraduate medical students had knowledge regarding principles of ethics in research and problems they should encounter if they practice plagiarism. Majority have negative attitude towards plagiarism.
在一个学生的学术学习过程中，抄袭的过程很早就开始了，从准备评估开始，然后是研讨会演讲。这种抄袭研究的做法有意无意地被灌输给学生作为一种习惯。到目前为止，发表的关于研究实践中的伦理的研究都来自发达国家，在这些国家，研究伦理在本科教育中被教授。本研究的目的是调查东南亚一所医学院本科学生对抄袭的认识、态度和行为。我们采用横断面研究设计，于2022年2月至4月对200名医科本科生样本进行了研究，以评估他们对抄袭的知识、态度和实践(KAP)。所有本科生(从一年级到最后一年级)都可以参加。不愿意参与研究的学生被排除在外。评估采用了由知识、态度和抄袭行为三部分组成的有效问卷。问卷包括(a)与知识有关的问题(b)与对剽窃的积极和消极态度有关的问题以及(c)与剽窃行为有关的问题。学生们被鼓励填写所有的问题。从学生手中收回这些KAP问卷后进行分析并计算百分比。数据分析采用Microsoft excel和SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences)统计软件第16版。在200名参与者中，52%是女性，48%是男性。参与者平均±SD年龄为18.7±2.6岁。大多数学生(80%)了解研究中的道德原则和剽窃行为。一半的学生(50%)有过研究和剽窃的经历，并且知道如果他们剽窃会遇到什么问题。70%的人正确回答了包括抄袭在内的领域，65%的人正确回答了可能被认为是抄袭的行为，50%的人正确回答了可能不被认为是抄袭的行为，只有40%的人正确回答了重新发表自己以前的作品是否被认为是抄袭。自我抄袭是否应该被视为严重的问题也得到了同样的回答。这表明，大多数本科医学生都了解研究中的伦理原则，以及他们在剽窃时会遇到的问题。大多数人对抄袭持否定态度。

Bones are an indispensable learning resource to learn osteology. This study reviews the various bone preparation techniques and the ease of procurement and processing of human bones for teaching medical students and osteology research. Steps of bone preparation essentially involve soft tissue removal, bone bleaching, bone articulation and labelling. Embalmed cadavers may be ideal for bone preparation because it eliminates the risk of infection. Detergent maceration may be the ideal method of bone maceration because it is a cheaper technique and gives good results. Both acetone and hydrogen peroxide may be the ideal degreasing and bleaching agents, owing to their superior outcomes. Embalmed cadavers may be ideal for bone preparation because it eliminates the risk of infection. Among all, detergent maceration can be considered as the ideal method because of its cost-effectiveness and good results. Both acetone and hydrogen peroxide can be considered as the ideal degreasing and bleaching agents, owing to their superior outcomes.

Among medical students, stress has always been a major problem. Medical studies are known to be long, stressful, and difficult. The dropout rate is high in medical studies; it is often associated with chronic fatigue and a permanent state of stress. The objectives of our work were to determine the different aspects of stress, to assess the intensity of stress, to determine an association between perceived stress and socio-demographic characteristics; and to make recommendations to optimize our student’s performance.This was a cross-sectional and descriptive study aimed at determining the different aspects of stress experienced by license 2 and license 3 medical students at Gaston BERGER University during the teaching of anatomy. We proposed 29 questions with 5-level Likert scale responses.The response rate was 91.5% with a male predominance (sex ratio of 1.17). The minimum, average and maximum stress degrees were 4%, 54.52% and 100% respectively; the intensity was higher among female students (60%) than male students (50%); the youngest between 18 and 21 years old had a stress intensity of 50%; and 60% between 22 and 25 years old.Our study, which focused on the stress experienced by medical students during the “anatomy and organogenesis” teaching unit, highlighted many particularities. It appeared that stress is relatively common among medical students, and that most of them are moderately or highly stressed. We also found that the issue of stress is only rarely discussed with the teacher, or between students. Moreover, the existence of the “stress” factor and its poor management with students are directly correlated to academic performance.
