Acute appendicitis is one of the most common conditions treated in the emergency room all over the world. And it has come a long way from the first described it to present, where a number of studies are reported in the topic. Claudius Amyandin 1735 is credited with performing the first Appendectomy whilein 1886 Reginald Fitz first described the clinical features and pathologic abnormalities of appendicitis.

Ectopic pregnancy refers to the pregnancy occurring outside the uterine cavity, predominantly i.e. 90% of them in the fallopian tube. Ectopic pregnancy affects 11 in 1000 pregnancies and is a significant cause of morbidity and at times mortality in the first trimester of pregnancy. In a 20-year longitudinal study on ectopic pregnancy in a defined
population of women aged 15e39 years the rate of ectopic pregnancy per 1000 diagnosed conceptions increased
from 5.8 during 1960e4 to 11.1 during 1975e9. The mean annual incidence of ectopic pregnancy per 1000 women
increased from 0.6 to 1.2 during the same period. The numbers of ectopic pregnancies per 1000 diagnosed
conceptions increased with increasing age of the women and were 4.1 in the teenage group, 6.9 in women aged
20e29 years, and 12.9 in women aged 30e39.

Day care surgery was started as money saving modality. It has picked up momentum even in India. In last one decade due to innovations in surgical techniques and advances in anaesthesia, the positive feedback from the patients and their relations has enhanced the popularity of day care surgery. There is an immense opportunity for expansion of day care surgery in India to ensure faster, safer, cost-effective and patient turnover. Retrospective and Prospective day care surgery is being performed on general surgery patients at National Institute of Medical Science and Hospital (NIMS), Jaipur from 2014 to 2017. During this period, 4547 day care surgical procedures and 2757 OPD procedures were performed. Only 212 day care surgery patients (2.9%) were transferred to day care unit as in-patient admission. We found the day care surgery as safe and effective means of fast track surgery, which was economical also. In-patient admission following day surgery can be reduced by improved out-patient selection of cases by introducing a pre-admission assessment form filled in at the out-patient clinic, operating early on day care by using separate day care theatre. Anaesthetic complications were reduced by increased use of local anaesthetic techniques.

Introduction: Vescicovaginal fi stulae, most of all as consequences of prolonged neglected obstructed labor, occur mainly in low income countries. Fistulas have a devastating impact on affected women and their families from physical, social and economic point of view. Methods: We collected data of patients admitted to the Urology Department of Maputo Central Hospital from 2004 to 2013. We conducted a descriptive analysis of the collected data as yet available.

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)
