verse feto-maternal outcome is associated with pregnancies between 37 weeks and 42 weeks of gestation. The evidence regarding IOL prior to 37 weeks and beyond 42 weeks of gestation is inadequate to reach any conclusion.The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic provided our institution a unique opportunity to develop a new procedural curriculum for our fourth-year, emergency medicine-bound medical students. A significant portion of our ED's fourth-year elective has traditionally been centered in our simulation center, using high-fidelity simulation models to practice important emergency medicine procedures. Due to the pandemic, the simulation center was unavailable for our use, and this new curriculum was created in an effort to fill this gap in procedural education.Background Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with ischemic stroke. Our study aims to explore the clinical and microbiological aspects (culture and sensitivity) of stroke patients with a confirmed diagnosis of HAP. Methodology This retrospective cross-sectional study included a total of 232 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of HAP following ischemic stroke. HAP was diagnosed based on the timing of onset of symptoms and chest X-ray. Patients were evaluated for their demographic details and a myriad of clinical parameters including dysphagia, mechanical ventilation, mortality, spontaneous pneumothorax, and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score. The frequencies of different microorganisms isolated from the tracheal secretions were reported. Thereafter, the percentages of resistant isolates against a plethora of antimicrobial agents were tabulated. Results Out of 232 patients, 110 were males and 122 were females with a mean age of 58.79 ± 8.62 years. Dysphagia and mechanical ventilation were present in 66.4% and 72%, respectively. The mortality rate was 30.6%. Klebsiella pneumoniae was the most frequently isolated organism (28.9%), followed by Escherichia coli (24.5%), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (23.3%). The antimicrobial resistance patterns of most of the isolates against different antibiotics were alarmingly high. Conclusions Dysphagia and mechanical ventilation are frequently present in patients of ischemic stroke with associated HAP. The antimicrobial resistance patterns of the isolated organisms are a cause of major concern. This necessitates the need for proper sanitation and the careful use of antibiotics.Introduction The nursing profession is extremely demanding and stressful. Nurses have been facing a tremendous amount of fear and anxiety during the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. General self-efficacy is considered one of the most influential factors that can modify the impact of anxiety on nurses' mental health. In this study, we aimed to determine the predictors of self-efficacy and anxiety among nurses during the current COVID-19 pandemic. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional survey involving 368 nurses working in a tertiary care hospital. The General Self-Efficacy scale (GSE) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 (GAD-7) were used for assessing self-efficacy and anxiety. The chi-square test followed by bivariate and multivariable regression analyses was performed to identify the determinants of self-efficacy and anxiety. Results The mean age of the nurses was 28.91 years (SD=3.68), with a mean working experience in the nursing field of 5.32 years (SD=2.48). The mean self-effic' mental health and prepare them for fighting pandemics in a much better and more efficient manner.Neurologic symptoms from leukemic infiltration of the central nervous system are an oncologic emergency, and expeditious treatment is required to preserve function. We report the case of a 44-year-old patient with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who developed sub-acute cranial neuropathies refractory to treatment with intrathecal (IT) chemotherapy. The patient was therefore treated with an emergent course of whole-brain radiotherapy, resulting in immediate improvement and subsequent resolution of cranial neuropathies. This case illustrates that while central nervous system involvement by AML is rare, radiotherapy remains an effective modality to avoid long-term morbidity in patients failing to respond to systemic or IT chemotherapy.Introduction Studies evaluating the outcomes of different brands of knee prostheses are important to monitor patient outcomes and generate evidence to aid decisions around the choice of implant. The Triathlon® prosthesis (Stryker, Limerick, Ireland), one of the most commonly used total condylar knee prosthesis, is designed to provide greater knee motion and the potential for longer implant survivorship. The aim of this cohort study was to evaluate outcomes and survivorship of the Triathlon total knee replacement (TKR) up to 10 years post-operative. Methods Two-hundred sixty-six (266) patients listed for a Triathlon TKR in one orthopaedic hospital were recruited. Assessments were conducted preoperatively and then at three months and one, two, three, five, seven, and 10 years after surgery. Outcomes assessed included pain, function, knee-related quality of life (QoL), satisfaction, kneeling ability, activity levels, American Knee Society Score, complications, and survivorship. Results Large improvements in patient-reported outcomes were observed in the first three months after surgery, followed by small improvement up to one year post-operative, and then outcomes plateaued up to 10 years post-operative. Satisfaction with overall outcome ranged from 79%-94% over the duration of follow-up. Activity levels and kneeling ability were similar before and after surgery. There was a large improvement in the median American Knee Society score in the first three months post-operative, followed by a small but gradual improvement to 10 years post-operative. Survivorship was 95.4% (95% confidence interval 91.8-97.5%) at 10 years post-operative. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/tucidinostat-chidamide.html Conclusions This study found that the Triathlon TKR results in excellent outcomes and survivorship to 10 years post-operative.Congenital melanocytic nevi arise from overgrowth or disrupted migration of melanocyte precursor in the neural crest. They are also known as coat-sleeve, stocking, bathing trunk or garment nevi. The colour ranges from brown to black, with the lesions presenting as flat to raised nevi. Lesions presenting at birth with a diameter greater than 20cm are labelled giant congenital melanocytic nevi. Risk increases with an increase in the number of satellite lesions near the giant nevus. Management includes regular clinical follow-up monitoring of changes in the lesion and surgical procedures in cases with risk of melanoma and psychological support. The purpose of this case presentation is to describe a rare issue of giant congenital melanocytic nevi in a newborn, along with a literature review and discussion on possible management options.
