FOOT CARE AND ULCER MANAGEMENT AT VASCULOCARE: OUR AIM TO SALVAGE FOOT.Shantonu Kumar Ghosh
Foot ulcers are a common complication of peripheral arterial disease and a major cause of disability of patients. It is worse when associated with diabetes.
Ischemic and diabetic foot ulcers lead to amputation if not managed properly.

Introduction
Vascular injuries are potentially life or limb threatening. Vascular trauma occurs in 1.6% of civilian injuries (1) and 6.8% to 10.8% in war related injuries (Afghanistan, Iraq and Lebanon war). In a study done at the National hospital of Sri Lanka Colombo (NHSL) out of 5802 trauma admissions there were 93 patients with vascular injuries (VI). Therefore the incidence of VI in civilian trauma is 1.6% (1). After the end of civil war in Sri Lanka in 2009 there is a reduction in the number of war related vascular injuries. But due to the increase in the number of Road Traffic Accidents (RTA), the number of vascular trauma also increased (i.e. from 1938 to 2013 road traffic injuries increased from 35.1 to 98.6 per 100 000 population in Sri Lanka). One of the reasons for this is the increased number two and three wheeled vehicles which are involved more with accidents (2). Trauma and vascular injuries often involve young males. They are the breadwinners of the family. In one study done at the Teaching Hospital Anuradhapura (THA) among patients presenting with popliteal arterial injuries, 18 (90%) were males with a mean age of 38.7 years (2). And in another study done at the same institution among patients with major lower limb arterial injuries, 22 (87.5%) were males and the mean age was 36.9 years (3). These studies confirm the fact of young males often getting involved with vascular injuries.
Vascular injuries occur
• Unexpected
• Young and fit
• Results in loss of limb or life
• Loss of earning capacity, economic

Causes - Road Traffic Accidents – 54.2%,Trap Gun – 33.3%,Iatrogenic - 8.33%,Other- 4.2% (Sriharan P, Arudchelvam JD, Marasinghe A. Outcome of major lower-limb arterial injuries presenting to a single unit in a peripheral setting in Sri Lanka. Indian J Vasc Endovasc Surg 2019;6:266-8)
Mechanism of injury
• Sharp / penetrating
• Blunt
“Vascular injury” is a nonspecific term. Because this is used to describe the injuries
to blood vessels in all parts of the body that includes neck vascular injuries, thoracic and
abdominal vascular injuries, and injuries to the blood vessels of the limbs. And in addition
vascular injury also describes injuries to the arteries and veins. Injuries to the blood vessels of
the limbs are called extremity vascular injury. This chapter will concentrate on the extremity
vascular injuries.

The "New Drug Discovery and Development" process involves the identification, design, testing, and manufacturing of novel pharmaceutical compounds with the aim of introducing new and improved treatments for various medical conditions. This comprehensive endeavor encompasses various stages, including target identification, preclinical studies, clinical trials, regulatory approval, and post-market surveillance. It involves multidisciplinary collaboration among scientists, researchers, clinicians, regulatory experts, and pharmaceutical companies to bring innovative therapies to market and address unmet medical needs.

Report Back from SGO 2024: What’s the Latest in Cervical Cancer?bkling
Are you curious about what’s new in cervical cancer research or unsure what the findings mean? Join Dr. Emily Ko, a gynecologic oncologist at Penn Medicine, to learn about the latest updates from the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) 2024 Annual Meeting on Women’s Cancer. Dr. Ko will discuss what the research presented at the conference means for you and answer your questions about the new developments.
These lecture slides, by Dr Sidra Arshad, offer a quick overview of physiological basis of a normal electrocardiogram.
Learning objectives:
1. Define an electrocardiogram (ECG) and electrocardiography
2. Describe how dipoles generated by the heart produce the waveforms of the ECG
3. Describe the components of a normal electrocardiogram of a typical bipolar leads (limb II)
4. Differentiate between intervals and segments
5. Enlist some common indications for obtaining an ECG

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
