Abstract : Ventral hernias are one of the most common challenging problems which the general surgeons confront. The rate of incidence of ventral incisional hernia in the long term after laparotomy has been reported to be 20-25%. Primary suture repair remains one of the oldest techniques. The use of sutures to fix these meshes is associated with complications like infections, seroma, fistulas and chronic pain. Self-gripping mesh has shown promising results in several different kinds of abdominal wall hernias. The aim of our study was to compare outcomes of self-gripping mesh with sutured polypropylene mesh and highlight its promising results. Our study was a comparative interventional study, carried out at SRM medical college hospital between April 2021 to October 2021, in which 80 patients undergoing open ventral hernia repair were selected as per satisfaction of inclusion criteria and divided into two groups: Conventional sutured mesh as Control group and Self- gripping suture-less mesh as Study group. This study was conducted after obtaining the institute human ethics committee approval. The intra- operative time, post-operative pain, post- operative infection and duration of hospital stay were recorded for all these patients and analysed. Based on the study, it was found out that the use of self-gripping mesh was found have less intra -operative time, less post- operative pain and infection and those patients had short hospital stay compared to sutured mesh. Thus self- gripping mesh is worthier as there is no sutures. It is time saving, surgeon friendly and improves patient’s quality of life..

Abstract : Haglund deformity is a common cause of posterior heel pain and consists of a constellation of soft tissue and osseous abnormalities. The treatment starts with conservative approach and ends with surgical treatment in case conservative treatment fails and the symptoms are bothersome. Different surgical procedures and approaches have been used for this deformity. In this study we evaluated the clinical and functional outcome of osteotomy of the calcaneal tuberosity with debridement of the retrocalcaneal bursa and the Achilles tendon using a lateral approach at our institute. This prospective study consists of 30heels (10 men, 15 women) with mean age of 40 years who were operated at Meenakshi Medical College from March 2016 tonov 2017, with posterior heel pain, who did not respond to conservative treatment and underwent surgical decompression of the retrocalcaneal bursae and excision of bony spurs. The functional outcome was evaluated by comparing the pre and postoperative American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores and Visual analog scale (VAS) score at 6th month and one year follow up. All patients were followed up for at least 12 months. AOFAS scores showed significant improvement at 6th months & one year follow up.3 out of 30 operated feet had superficial surgical site infection in the postoperative period that responded to antibiotic therapy and regular dressings. Open surgical decompressionis a safe and effective technique. We conclude lateral approach to debridement and calcaneal tuberosity resection is an effective method with good clinical and functional outcome in patients with refractory Haglund deformity..

Abstract : Vita app is a digital health app that offers to review, understand and analyze the health parameters that ultimately results in enhanced overall health via proper guidance. The app already has over 10k users whose feedback is helping its developers to constantly improve app features. The app is currently offering predictive markers for some common diseases in accordance with the Framingham study (2008). The next important step in the growth of the app is to include more diseases and their respective predictive markers and help track disease outcomes by patients and health professionals. This comprehensive review is aimed at bringing together all the available predictive markers of common diseases based on risk factor prediction, clinical parameters and investigations under one platform. Also, newly emerging molecular predictive markers have been mentioned with the foresight of including them to the app in the near future..

Abstract :

Coronary bifurcation lesion management is challenging even in this modern era of drug eluting stents. A debate always exits as to what mode of treatment is better for management of patients with bifurcation lesions. The aim of this study is to analyse management of coronary bifurcation lesions in tertiary care centre. This retrospective study included 183 patients who underwent non primary PCI of bifurcation lesions at Dr. D.Y.Patil Medical College and Hospital, Pune ,India. Patients were classified into two groups. One stent technique group (Provisional) and two stent technique group (Mini crush technique, V stenting, T stenting, T stenting and protrusion (TAP), Culotte stenting, Simultaneous kissing stenting (SKS). The primary end point was rate of restenosis at 1 year. The secondary end points were periprocedural complications (acute stent thrombosis, periprocedural infarction and death) and MACE at 1 year.

Abstract : Globally elderly population is rising these days and these similar types of trends can be observed in Asia as well as in Pakistan. Geriatrics is not recognized as well as practiced in Pakistan although it is a specialized area of training in medical. This research is carried out to recognize the place of geriatrics in Pakistan. The aim of this study was to measure the attitudes of physiotherapy students towards geriatric population. All data was collected from physiotherapy students of Institutes of Gujranwala that are offering DPT program, through questionnaire Geriatric Attitude Scale (GAS) that measured their attitudes towards old people. A sample size of 196 students was obtained. 66% students showed positive attitude, 8% showed neutral attitude and 26% showed negative attitude. Majority of participants showed positive attitude towards older people, however negative attitude was also seen in significant population. The causes of negative attitudes towards the geriatric population should be detected and further researches should be conducted for improvement..
