Changes in inter observer variation of Schatzker and AO/OTA classification of tibial plateau fractures on addition of CT scan.

Objective: Schatzker and AO/OTA classification are commonly used to classify tibial plateau fractures, but they are defined using plain radiographs and may not capture fully the complexity of these fractures. CT scan offers better visualization of occult fractures, joint depression and overall fracture morphology, but its impact on these classifications in term of interobserver variation is unclear. There is paucity of literature on this aspect, hence this study.

Rumination Syndrome in Children and Adolescents: A Mini Review.

Rumination syndrome involves recurrent regurgitation of food and is believed to be underdiagnosed with patients experiencing long delays in diagnosis.

The primary aims of the current review are to assess the literature regarding prevalence, pathophysiology, and treatment outcomes with a focus on neurotypical children and adolescents.

Evolutionary journey of programmatic services and treatment outcomes among drug resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) patients under National TB Elimination Programme in India (2005-2020).

India, with one-fourth of global burden of tuberculosis as well as multidrug-resistant TB, made bold commitment to end TB by 2025. There is no documented comprehensive review of the evolutionary journey of India's DRTB service expansion and changes in the treatment outcome so far. The current document presents evolution and journey of programmatic services and the progress in treatment outcomes among DRTB patients since 2005 with efforts cum challenges in nationwide scale-up of evidence-based policies and services, opportunities and future prospects for universalizing quality care - an essential ingredient to end TB in India.

Sucrase Breath Testing in Children Presenting With Chronic Abdominal Pain.

Sucrase deficiency has been implicated in chronic abdominal pain. Testing for sucrase deficiency generally involves invasive procedures or lengthy clinical visits, but now noninvasive kits that allow home testing are available to test for sucrase deficiency. In order to assess feasibility and utility of at-home testing, we reviewed our experience in 75 consecutive patients.
