The forehead flap is considered the most reliable method for reconstructing nasal soft tissue. It offers a reconstructive surgeon a strong pedicle and a significant volume of tissue, making it suitable for repairing nearly any lesion. The modifications made by experts such as Burget and Menick have significantly enhanced the functionality of this outstanding flap. The guiding principles for reconstructing the nose with a forehead flap involve maintaining a straight line along the axis, using the pedicle on the same side as the defect, expanding the flap at a right angle when additional length is required, employing a small pedicle, and performing early subperiosteal dissection. Furthermore, the issue of lining abnormalities can be effectively and dependably resolved through the utilization of a folded forehead flap.</p>2024-04-02T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Medical Science and Clinical Research Studies https://ijmscr.org/index.php/ijmscrs/article/view/1560Updates in Diagnosis and Management of Forearm Compartment Syndrome2024-04-04T09:38:18+00:00Alexis Andrei Granados Floresmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comRodrigo Rueda De León Sernamanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comDorian Iván Arriola Ríosmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comJosé Roberto González Sotomanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comDaniel Fernando Narvaez Hernandezmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comSara Fernanda Díaz Villotamanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comDiana Itzel Tene Coronamanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comYurani urbano urbanomanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comLourdes Montserrath Brito Piñanmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.com<p>In children, compartment syndrome of the forearm often arises from supracondylar fractures, whereas in adults, distal radius fractures are the predominant cause. In 48% of instances, diagnosis was based exclusively on clinical assessment, while in the remaining 52% of cases, a combination of intracompartmental pressure measurement and clinical assessment was used. Several methods, including wick catheters, slit catheters, the Whitesides method, and the Stryker compartment pressure measurement device, were employed to measure intracompartmental pressure. The treatment approach of choice was fasciotomy, with a preference rate of 73%. Out of all the patients that needed wound management, postfasciotomy skin grafting was essential in 61% of them, while secondary closure was done in 39% of cases. The most prevalent consequence, observed in 21% of patients, was neurological impairment.</p>2024-04-02T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Medical Science and Clinical Research Studies https://ijmscr.org/index.php/ijmscrs/article/view/1558What a Day in Medicine!!2024-04-03T10:58:54+00:00Dr Gauri manishsoni.mds13@gmail.com<p>Science amazes us every day, whether it’s a call from your beloved from thousands of miles away , your favorite program on TV aired from faraway places , your coffee machine that makes your delicious cup of coffee, your car, your laptop, internet, wireless connectivity , Alexa/Google/Siri ,Social media, AI applications and what not!

Noise is a factor that impairs good hearing and can lead to various health problems, as well as impairing the performance of aviation cadets when they perform multiple tasks during flight. It is important to educate airmen about how noise can negatively affect instructional flights and the conditions that expose them to too much of a drop in concentration during flights. The sound pressure levels to which cadet airmen are exposed during their training is an aggravating factor for their communication and safety. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between noise and loss of concentration during instruction in the Neiva T-25 aircraft, with the aim of collecting and analyzing data in order to improve air mission instruction in terms of health and flight safety by highlighting the harmful nature of noise in the Second Air Instruction Squadron (2º EIA). A questionnaire with eight questions about the influence of noise on the performance of aerial mission practices was administered to a sample of 20 Cadet Aviators from the Second Squadron who were taking part in the aerial instruction course in the Neiva T-25. The results of the questionnaires showed the importance of raising awareness about the harmful effects of noise in military activity, as it is a matter of flight safety.</p>2024-04-03T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Medical Science and Clinical Research Studies https://ijmscr.org/index.php/ijmscrs/article/view/1514The Use of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) as a Dressing for Split Thickness Skin Graft for Bilateral Chronic Venous Leg Ulcer2024-03-28T17:48:19+00:00Vikas Indru Moorjanivikasmoorjani@outlook.comMetaudina Chandra Pratiwivikasmoorjani@outlook.comBrevitra Janesa Bismedivikasmoorjani@outlook.com<p><strong>Background:</strong> Chronic ulcer is a type of wound, which persists for at least 3 months. One of the causes of chronic ulcer is deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Chronic ulcers require very high maintenance costs and can negatively impact the patient’s quality of life and mental health.</p> <p><strong>Case Illustration</strong>: A 40-year-old man came to the hospital with a history of chronic ulcer on both legs, which first appeared 3 years ago. The Patient had undergone treatment at a public outpatient clinic and hospital, unfortunately the wound did not heal. The patient continued to change the bandage independently and did not go to the doctor for wound control. Upon doppler ultrasound, a sign of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) was observed. Negative Pressure Wound therapy (NPWT) was used for wound bed preparation, Split Thickness Skin Graft (STSG) on the left foot was used as a dressing, while conventional dressing was chosen for the right foot. The graft take on the left foot with NPWT was 95%, while the one on the right foot with conventional dressing was 90%.</p> <p><strong>Discussion:</strong> Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is a closed system that applies negative pressure through continuous or intermittent suction. NPWT can be used in wound bed preparation to reduce biofilm. NNPWT helps in the removal of exudates from the wound, thus preventing the build-up of serous fluids and blood, reducing the growth of bacteria at the base of the wound, which helps tissue growth after split thickness skin graft (STSG).</p> <p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>NPWT stimulates better healing after surgery. The left leg, which used NPWT after STSG had faster healing time and better aesthetic result by promoting graft take. The graft take on the left leg (with NPWT) was higher compared to the right leg.</p>2024-04-04T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Medical Science and Clinical Research Studies https://ijmscr.org/index.php/ijmscrs/article/view/1473Successful Treatment of Cerebral Tuberculoma in Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome Patient a Case Report2024-02-17T12:53:25+00:00Rachmad Aji Saksanarachmadajisaksana@gmail.comIka Trisnawatirachmadajisaksana@gmail.comEko Budionorachmadajisaksana@gmail.com<p><strong>Introduction:</strong> Tuberculosis (TB) remains a leading problem in developing and endemic countries. Cerebral tuberculosis is a rare but dangerous complication of tuberculosis infection in the central nervous system. The immunosuppressive condition in human immunodeficiency virus infection is a risk factor for severe tuberculosis.</p> <p><strong>Case Report:</strong> An Indonesian man, 32 years old, married, came with complaints of headaches, dizziness, delirium, nausea and vomiting since 1 month before the examination. He had a history of TB treatment 1 year before the examination. The results of the neurological examination were within normal limits, the HIV test was reactive and there was a decrease in CD4. Head MRI examination with contrast showed multiple solid nodules in the thalamus with the largest size 2.3×2.7 cm, indicating cerebral tuberculoma. Chest x-ray was normal, GeneXpert MTB sputum was not detected. Next, primary treatment is given with anti-tuberculosis drugs, Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART), co-trimoxazole, and dexamethasone. There was clinical, laboratory and radiological improvement after 12 months of treatment. Viral load is undetectable, CD4 is elevated. A head CT scan did not show tuberculoma. He became healthy and was able to return to work</p> <p><strong>Discussion:</strong> Cerebral tuberculoma is a condition characterized by the presence of intracranial tuberculoma. The clinical manifestations are non-specific, such as headaches or seizures. This is caused by space occupying lesions and increase intracranial pressure. In this case, the diagnosis of cerebral tuberculoma was made through head MRI with contrast. TB therapy and co-trimoxazole are given as soon as the diagnosis is made, while antiretrovirals are given 2 weeks after he has tolerated the TB medication. The minimum duration of therapy for cerebral tuberculosis is 12 months. He require lifelong antiretroviral medication.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Tuberculoma should be considered as differential diagnosis of space-occupying lesions in patients HIV/AIDS. Early diagnosis, adequate therapy, patient adherence and family support can cure severe tuberculosis.</p> <p> </p>2024-04-05T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Medical Science and Clinical Research Studies https://ijmscr.org/index.php/ijmscrs/article/view/1568Immunopathogenesis and Therapeutic Insights into Cicatricial Pemphigoid: A Comprehensive Review2024-04-08T11:00:16+00:00Omar Alejandro Leal Avalosmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comJoanna Paola Morales Gloriamanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comGabriela Rojas Cruzmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comRicardo Daniel Flores Altamiranomanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comLaura Leticia Torres Martínezmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.com<p>Cicatricial Pemphigoid (CP), also known as mucous membrane pemphigoid, is a rare autoimmune blistering disorder characterized by subepithelial blistering and scarring of mucous membranes. The hallmark of CP is the formation of autoantibodies against structural proteins within the basement membrane zone, leading to an array of clinical manifestations affecting oral, ocular, and other mucosal surfaces. This review aims to elucidate the complex immunopathogenic mechanisms underlying CP, exploring the role of autoantigens such as BP180 and BP230, as well as the involvement of inflammatory mediators and immune cells. Additionally, the article provides a comprehensive overview of current diagnostic modalities and therapeutic approaches, ranging from systemic corticosteroids to novel immunomodulatory agents and biological therapies. The challenges in managing CP, including potential side effects of immunosuppressive treatments, are discussed alongside emerging strategies to enhance treatment efficacy and minimize adverse effects.

It can be symptomatic in various ways, most commonly causing ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding. Complications such as bleeding, perforation, diverticulitis, or intestinal obstruction may develop in approximately 4% of patients. Diagnosis can be challenging, but a CT scan is often the tool of choice, particularly for identifying complications. Surgical procedures like laparoscopy or laparotomy provide a more accurate diagnosis. Treatment typically involves surgical removal of the diverticulum, with laparoscopy being a safe and effective method. Risk factors for acute complications in adults include age under 50, male sex, MD length over 2 centimeters, and intradiverticular tissue abnormalities.</p>2024-04-09T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Medical Science and Clinical Research Studies https://ijmscr.org/index.php/ijmscrs/article/view/1573Pediatric Considerations in Pompe Disease: A Comprehensive Review2024-04-12T10:50:46+00:00Donaldo Emiliano Silva Lópezmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comSussan Irlanda Méndez Ynostroza manishsoni.mds13@gmail.comAlma Alejandra Solano Mendozamanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comClaudia Paola Contreras Sáenzmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comAna Isabel Díaz de León Guzmánmanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comNoemí Villaseñor Alcalámanishsoni.mds13@gmail.com<p>Pompe disease, also known as glycogen storage disease type II, is a rare inherited disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA), leading to the accumulation of glycogen in various tissues, particularly muscles.

Temperature regulation is crucial in anesthetic management because hypothermia can significantly impact the patient's cardiovascular functioning. Accidental (uncontrolled) hypothermia during anesthetic and surgical procedures carries considerable risks such as: Increases the incidence of surgical site infections, prolongs the effects of drugs administered during anesthesia, and disrupts normal coagulation, potentially increasing the risk of bleeding. For these reasons, body temperature regulation is a critical aspect to monitor and control during anesthesia.</p> <p><strong>MATERIAL AND METHODS</strong><strong>:</strong> A descriptive, observational, single-center, and retrospective study was carried out in patients undergoing a related living donor kidney transplant between June 2022-2023 at the Juarez Hospital in Mexico. All data were collected from the demographic sheets, laboratories and trans anesthetic sheets of the patient's file. The data was integrated into an Excel database and statistical processing was performed in SPSS or STATSm software. The statistical analysis was tested for normality according to Kolmogorov-Smirnov with Lilliefors correction, where it was found that the population has a normal or non-normal distribution. The Mann-Whitney U test was performed to compare the difference of the means between the two groups. A correlation was made with Kendall´s Tau coefficient; All statistical analyzes were performed with a value of p<0.05, considering these significantly.</p> <p>RESULTS: Of the 65 transplanted patients between Jun 2023 and June 2024 only 28 have appropriate inclusion criteria. Of the remaining 28, 16 were female (57.14%) and 12 were male (42.8%) with an average age of recipients of 30.2430.46 ±11.45 years with a weight of 58.23 ±10.47 kg, height 154.20 ±15.32 cm.</p> <p><u>Gasometrical and Hemodynamic Values upon Reperfusion with a Forced Air Turbine. </u>The gasometrical variables before reperfusion were: Venous pH 7.41±0.05 (p=0.046); Arterial pH 7.40±0.04 (p=0.015); Venous Oxygen Saturation 68.2±9.74% (p = 0.039). Hemodynamic variables before reperfusion were: IC 3.67±1.77 lt/min/m2 (p=0.001); Stroke Volume 79.5±39.6 ml/beat (p=0.022), Oxygen Extraction 25.1±9.95% (p=0.001) and Myocardial Efficiency 0.28±0.06 (p=0.024); The gasometrical variables after reperfusion were: Venous pH 7.40±0.03; Arterial pH 7.380±0.04; Venous Oxygen Saturation 60.03±4.37%; The hemodynamic variables after reperfusion were: IC 2.88±0.48 liter/min/m2; Stroke Volume 65.4±16.01 ml/beat; Oxygen Extraction Rate 36.9±4.31% (p = 0.039) and Myocardial Efficiency 0.32±0.06</p> <p><u>Gasometrical and Hemodynamic Values upon Reperfusion without Forced Air Turbine. </u>The gasometrical variables before reperfusion were: Venous pH 7.32±0.04 (p=0.012); Arterial pH 7.30±0.04 (p=0.019); Venous Oxygen Saturation 64.7±8.27% (p = 0.026). Hemodynamic variables before reperfusion were Cardiac Index 3.28±1.66 lt/min/m2 (p=0.006); Stroke Volume 72.39±45.44 ml/beat (p=0.029); Oxygen Extraction 29.11±9.65% (p=0.001) and Myocardial Efficiency 0.268±0.08 (p=0.022).

Definition and Classification of A Complex Entity2024-04-23T07:00:29+00:00Daniela Guerrero Carrillomanishsoni.mds13@gmail.com<p>Psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin condition influenced by hereditary factors and immune system response, exhibits diverse clinical manifestations. While its global incidence is around 2%, prevalence varies across geographical regions and ethnicities. The most common form, psoriasis vulgaris, presents as red, itchy patches with silver-colored scales, predominantly affecting the trunk, limbs, and scalp. Other clinical subtypes include inverse psoriasis, guttate psoriasis, pustular psoriasis, and erythrodermic psoriasis, each with distinct features and impacts. Beyond skin manifestations, psoriasis is associated with various co-occurring medical conditions, including hyperlipidemia, hypertension, coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. Psoriasis patients have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, with severity correlating with the incidence of diabetes and cardiovascular events. Additionally, psoriatic arthritis affects around 40% of patients and is often accompanied by nail involvement. Recent studies utilizing imaging techniques like 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy have shed light on systemic inflammation and cardiovascular risk in psoriasis patients. Treatments targeting IL-23 and IL-17 have shown promising results, though long-term efficacy and drug survival remain areas of concern. Psoriasis profoundly impacts patients' quality of life, with psychological distress comparable to cancer and depression. However, treatment can significantly alleviate symptoms and improve overall well-being. Ongoing research aims to expand treatment options, particularly targeting novel molecular pathways. In conclusion, while significant progress has been made in understanding and treating psoriasis, challenges remain in optimizing therapy selection and long-term management. Further research is warranted to elucidate the complex genetic and immunological underpinnings of the disease and to enhance treatment outcomes for affected individuals</p>2024-04-22T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 https://ijmscr.org/index.php/ijmscrs/article/view/1589Ozenoxacin: A Review of Clinical Efficacy on Impetigo Treatment2024-04-23T07:07:15+00:00Daniela Guerrero Carrillomanishsoni.mds13@gmail.comAlejandra Guerrero Carrillo manishsoni.mds13@gmail.com<p>Impetigo, a common bacterial skin infection primarily affecting children, presents a global prevalence of 11.2%, with higher rates among children aged 2-5 years. Caused mainly by Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes, impetigo lesions typically appear on the face, neck, and hands, spreading easily through scratching and close contact. Effective disease control is essential to alleviate symptoms, prevent complications such as rheumatic heart disease, and reduce transmission rates. Treatment with antimicrobial agents, especially topical antibiotics, is recommended for localized impetigo. Oral antibiotics are reserved for extensive or systemic infections and outbreaks. However, the emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains, including methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), poses a significant challenge. There is a pressing need for alternative antimicrobial agents effective against resistant strains. Ozenoxacin, a new topical quinolone, inhibits DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, essential enzymes for bacterial DNA replication. Unlike other quinolones, ozenoxacin effectively inhibits both enzymes at low concentrations, penetrating bacterial cells rapidly and achieving high intrabacterial concentrations. In tests against S. aureus and S. pyogenes, ozenoxacin exhibited superior bactericidal activity compared to mupirocin and fusidic acid, achieving a 3-log reduction in colony-forming units within 4 hours. Clinical studies have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of ozenoxacin 1% cream in treating impetigo, with placebo-controlled trials confirming its therapeutic effectiveness. Ozenoxacin holds promise as a valuable addition to the armamentarium against impetigo, particularly in the face of rising antibiotic resistance.impetigo, therapy, ozenoxacin</p>2024-04-22T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 https://ijmscr.org/index.php/ijmscrs/article/view/1567Enhancing Postpartum Health and Behavior: Evaluating The Impact of Postpartum Counselling in Eraviperoor Grama Panchayath2024-04-07T09:26:58+00:00Surya Somansurya11surya2127@gmail.comBevan Abraham surya11surya2127@gmail.comJomol Mathewsurya11surya2127@gmail.comRiya Thomassurya11surya2127@gmail.comDr. Philip Jacobsurya11surya2127@gmail.com<p>This study aims to assess the effectiveness of patient counseling in improving postpartum health and behavior in the context of Eraviperoor Grama Panchayath.
