| Efficacy of Technology-Assisted Personalized Nutrition Therapy in Managing Malnutrition Problems: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Clinical Trials | Author : Valerie Josephine Dirjayanto, Nathaniel Gilbert Dyson, Soraya Amanda Setiawan | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Introduction: Malnutrition including obesity has long been an urgent health issue worldwide, but COVID-19 has put more challenges to its management. Aided with technology, personalized nutrition is a novel potential solution. Therefore, this paper aims to evaluate the efficacy of technology-assisted personalized nutrition therapy in managing nutrition problems.
Methods: We conducted literature screening through databases including PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, ScienceDirect, EBSCOHost, and Google Scholar, searching for clinical trials implementing technology-assisted personalized nutrition therapy up to August 2021. Quality of studies were evaluated using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2.0 tool and converted to AHRQ standards. We conducted qualitative extraction and quantitative analysis of mean differences using Review Manager 5.4 in inverse variance, random-effects model and whenever possible, subgroup and sensitivity analyses were performed.
Results: Our search yielded 9 studies with 5,173 participants. Technology-assisted personalized nutrition, delivered through web, mobile, or telephone-based approaches, is proven effective in improving anthropometric outcomes including weight (pooled MD: -0.82; 95%CI:-1.30—0.35; p=0.0007) and BMI of (pooled MD: -1.30; 95%CI:-1.97—0.62; p<0.00001) of the target participants. Improvements in dietary pattern is also significant as seen in better intakes of fruits and vegetables (pooled MD: 0.86; 95%CI:0.18-1.53; p=0.01), reduction of saturated fat and sweetened beverages, as well as general diet scores. Additionally, markers of inflammation, oxidative stress, total cholesterol, and blood glucose of participants also decreased significantly with the intervention.
Conclusion: Technology-assisted personalized nutrition is proven to be more effective compared to previous population-based intervention, thus supporting its potential use in clinical settings. |

| Primary Cardiac Tumors: A Case Series and Review of Literature | Author : Dr. Nimisha S, Dr. Jaimie Anandan, Dr. Ruby Elizabeth, Dr. Krishna G. Balachandran, Dr. Lilarani Vijayaraghavan, | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Inrtoduction: Cardiac tumors are exceedingly rare. Majority of tumors are metastatic secondaries rather than that of primary cardiac origin. Even if most of the tumors are benign, the cardiac location itself can be fatal. Advanced imaging modalities have enabled early detection of cardiac tumors. In the present study we analysed a series of 7 primary cardiac tumors over a period of 3 years, with reference to clinical, radiological, morphological and immunohistochemical findings at the Department of Pathology, Government medical college, Thiruvananthapuram.
Method: Institutional records were reviewed for all the diagnosed primary cardiac tumors.
Results: We reviewed 7 cases of primary cardiac tumors .All cases were adults with equal gender distribution. The majority of cases were benign primary cardiac myxomas, exclusively in left atrium. One case each of epithelioid hemangiendothelioma involving both right and left atria and cardiac angiosarcoma involving the interatrial septum were diagnosed.
Conclusion: Although cardiac tumors are rare entity, its prompt diagnosis has significant role in reducing patient mortality and morbidity. |
| Mesenchymal Hamartoma Liver Showing Malignant Transformation to Undifferentiated Embryonal Sarcoma- A Case Report | Author : Dr. Veena Vijayan, Dr. Priya V S, Dr. Lilarani Vijayaraghavan, | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Mesenchymal hamartoma of liver is the third most common hepatic tumor in pediatric age group. Typically, it presents as a large multicystic mass in children. Gradually they get increases in size and some can undergo incomplete spontaneous regression and very rarely, few have shown malignant transformation to undifferentiated(embryonal) sarcoma. Here, we report a 6 year old female child with no relevant personal and family history, who presented with abdominal distension and vomiting. Radiology revealed a multiloculated large cystic lesion in the right lobe of liver with a possibility of hemangioendothelioma on ultrasonography and CT abdomen was suggestive of mesenchymal hamartoma of liver. Following worsening of symptoms, partial excision and marsupialisation of the cyst was performed. Histologically, it was diagnosed as mesenchynal hamartoma with undifferentiated embryonal sarcomatous component and immunohistochemical confirmation done. |

| Risk Factors for Treatment Failure with Oral Antivirals in HCV | Author : Parveen Malhotra, Vani Malhotra, Yogesh Sanwariya, Dixit , Sahil Girdhar, Shailesh Rathee, Shinepreet Kaur, Sanjeet | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Introduction: Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is one of the major cause of cirrhosis of liver and leads to significant morbidity and mortality. In past, HCV therapy was limited to subcutaneous peg interferon plus oral ribavirin, a regimen that was generally poorly tolerated and provided low efficacy, with cure rates below 40% for HCV genotypes 1 and 4, and below 75% for HCV genotypes 2 or 3. The availability of oral direct-acting antiviral (DAA) as treatment for chronic hepatitis C has revolutionized the field. Although current HCV therapies rarely fail to achieve viral eradication, a subset of patients experience treatment failure.
Aim: To study the risk factors associated with treatment failure with oral antiviral drugs in patients of Chronic hepatitis C.
Materials & Methods: It was a retrorospective study done at Medical Gastroenterology Department, PGIMS, Rohtak in which six years data i.e.from 01.01.2015 to 31.12.2020, pertainining to Eighty Six (86) chronic hepatitis C patients who had treatment failure i.e. SVR failure on oral antiviral drugs was analyzed.
Observations: Out of the total 86 patients, there was clear cut male predominance i.e. 54 (62.79 %) with rural background (villages) i.e.73 (84.88%). The age distribution in these 86 patients varied between 10-80 yrs of age and characterstically peak was seen in 31-40 yrs age group i.e.25 patients (29.06 %). The majority of patients had high baseline HCV viral load (> 4 lakhs I.U. /ml) i.e. 52 patients (60.46%). Out of total 86 patients, , 50 patients (58.13%) were cirrhotic, 34 patients (39.53 %) were smokers, 33 patients (38.37%) were alcoholic, 26 patients (30.23 %) had past history of surgical intervention, 9 patients (10.46 %) were diabetic, 9 patients (10.46 %) had got tattoo, 8 patients (9.30%) had history of previous blood transfusion and 13 patients (15.11%) gave history of use of alternative medications.
Results: The direct risk factors associated with development of failed SVR in HCV patients are high baseline HCV RNA viral load, cirrhosis, rural background and indirect risk factors are smoking, alcohol and Diabetes Mellitus but large scale studies in future are required to confirm the same. |

| A Case of Rupture Ectopic Pregnancy Diagnosed 10 Days After Hospital Stay In A 22-Year-Old Girl Presented With Symptoms of Anemia Without Abdominal Pain and Amenorrhea: Lessons Learned | Author : Khin Phyu Pyar, | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :A 22-year-old unmarried Myanmar girl presented with symptoms of anemia fatigue, exertional dyspnea and fainting attack. There was no abdominal pain or amenorrhea. The hemodynamic status was stable except sinus tachycardia. Anemia was refractory to blood transfusion; thus, the differential diagnosis were autoimmune hemolytic anemia and occult blood loss. Blood film, bone marrow examination, Comb tests, Anti-nuclear antibody profile and PNH screen tests excluded autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Presence of fibrous strands in free fluids of abdominal cavity with normal uterus and ovary mislead the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Blood tap in ascitic fluid aspiration made all the answer- rupture ectopic pregnancy. The symptoms resolved after right salpingectomy and blood transfusion. The clerking on sexual exposure to Myanmar single is not acceptable in our culture it is regarded as social insult. Atypical presentation and not asking sexual history caused delay in diagnosis diagnosed 10 days after hospital stay. She recovered uneventfully. |
