PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Over the last few decades, there have been remarkable strides in endoscopy and radiological imaging that have advanced gastroenterology. However, the management of neurogastroenterological disorders has lagged behind, in part handicapped by the use of catheter-based manometry that is both non-physiological and uncomfortable. The advent of capsule technology has been a game changer for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. RECENT FINDINGS: Here, we discuss several capsule devices that are available or under investigation...

BACKGROUND: Bloating is a bothersome symptom in irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C). AIM: To evaluate plecanatide efficacy in patients with IBS-C stratified by bloating intensity. METHODS: Pooled phase 3 data (2 randomized, controlled IBS-C trials) from adults treated with plecanatide 3 mg or placebo for 12 weeks were analyzed. Patients were stratified post-hoc by baseline bloating severity (11-point scale: mild [≤ 5] and moderate-to-severe [> 5])...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Among health care providers (HCPs), neurologists have one of the highest rates of burnout in the United States, compromising the quality and accessibility of patient care. Patients with refractory epilepsy are especially challenging to treat. This study aims to understand the burnout level in neurologists treating patients with refractory epilepsy and identify key contributing factors. METHODS: US board-certified pediatric/adult neurologists who devote ≥50% of their time to clinical practice and treat ≥10 unique patients with refractory epilepsy annually were invited to take a noninterventional quantitative survey, designed to capture key elements of the HCP's background, burnout level, current practice, burden domains, and satisfaction with current antiseizure medications (ASMs)...

Chloride is a key anion involved in cellular physiology by regulating its homeostasis and rheostatic processes. Changes in cellular Cl- concentration result in differential regulation of cellular functions such as transcription and translation, post-translation modifications, cell cycle and proliferation, cell volume, and pH levels. In intracellular compartments, Cl- modulates the function of lysosomes, mitochondria, endosomes, phagosomes, the nucleus, and the endoplasmic reticulum. In extracellular fluid (ECF), Cl- is present in blood/plasma, and interstitial fluid compartments...

In India, the incidence of mucormycosis reached high levels during 2021-2022, coinciding with the COVID-19 pandemic. In response to this, we established a multicentric ambispective cohort of patients hospitalised with mucormycosis across India. In this paper, we report their baseline profile, clinical characteristics and outcomes at discharge. Patients hospitalized for mucormycosis during March-July 2021 were included. Mucormycosis was diagnosed based on mycological confirmation on direct microscopy (KOH/Calcofluor white stain), culture, histopathology, or supportive evidence from endoscopy or imaging...

Watertight repair of the skull base defect is necessary during endonasal skull base surgery to avoid postoperative CSF leak (poCSFl) and consequent intracranial complications. Various techniques have been described for reconstructing sphenoid-sellar defects with varying success rates. We have described the immediate and long-term outcomes following the reconstruction of sphenoid-sellar defects with our technique. A retrospective analysis of the patients following transsphenoidal sellar surgery underwent barrier restoring reconstruction by multi-layered (inlay-overlay) with autologous thigh fat, fascia lata, fibrin glue, knitted collagen, and absorbable gelatin sponge (modified gasket seal technique)...

BACKGROUND: Prokinetics are a class of pharmacological drugs designed to improve gastrointestinal (GI) motility, either regionally or across the whole gut. Each drug has its merits and drawbacks, and based on current evidence as high-quality studies are limited, we have no clear recommendation on one class or other. However, there remains a large unmet need for both regionally selective and/or globally acting prokinetic drugs that work primarily intraluminally and are safe and without systemic side effects...

Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) are of interest for ultrahigh-temperature applications. To overcome their drawbacks - low-temperature brittleness and poor creep strength at high temperatures - improved fundamental understanding is needed. Using experiments, theory, and modeling, we investigated prototypical body-centered cubic (BCC) RHEAs, TiZrHfNbTa and VNbMoTaW. The former is compressible to 77 K, whereas the latter is not below 298 K. Hexagonal close-packed (HCP) elements in TiZrHfNbTa lower its dislocation core energy, increase lattice distortion, and lower its shear modulus relative to VNbMoTaW whose elements are all BCC...

Objective: The nasal cavity effectively captures the particles present in inhaled air, thereby preventing harmful and toxic pollutants from reaching the lungs. This filtering ability of the nasal cavity can be effectively utilized for targeted nasal drug delivery applications. This study aims to understand the particle deposition patterns in three age groups: neonate, infant, and adult. Materials and methods: The CT scans are built using MIMICS 21.0, followed by CATIA V6 to generate a patient-specific airway model...

INTRODUCTION: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a chronic psychiatric condition associated with significant distress and dysfunction. While worldwide estimates of prevalence range from 3.9% to 24%, little research has been conducted to identify the prevalence of PTSD in the general population of India. This study analyzes data from the National Mental Health Survey 2015-2016, a comprehensive epidemiological study of mental health disorders in India, to explore the unique characteristics and prevalence of PTSD in the Indian population...

Individuals with PD seek frequent healthcare and emergency services leading to frequent work absenteeism and economic burden. However, its prevalence patterns in the Indian context are poorly understood. Hence, this article discusses the epidemiology, disability, and treatment gap from India's National Mental Health Survey 2016.

BACKGROUND: A staggering 85% of the global population resides in low- and middle-income countries (LAMICs). India stands as an exemplary pioneer in the realm of mental health initiatives among LAMICs, having launched its National Mental Health Program in 1982. It is imperative to effectively evaluate mental health systems periodically to cultivate a dynamic learning model sustained through continuous feedback from mental healthcare structures and processes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The National Mental Health Survey (NMHS) embarked on the Mental Health Systems Assessment (MHSA) in 12 representative Indian states, following a pilot program that contextually adapted the World Health Organization's Assessment Instrument for Mental Health Systems...
