Abstract
The value of combining hybridization and mutagenesis in sesame was examined to determine if treating hybrid sesame plant material with mutagens generated greater genetic variability in four key productivity traits than either the separate hybridization or mutation of plant material. In a randomized block design with three replications, six F2M2 varieties, three F2varieties, and three parental varieties were assessed at Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. The plant characteristics height, number of seed capsules per plant, and seed yield per plant had greater variability in the F2M2 generation than their respective controls (F2), however, the number of primary branches per plant varied less than in the control population. The chances for trait selection to be operative were high for all the characteristics examined except the number of primary branches per plant, as indicated by heritability estimates. Increases in the mean and variability of the characteristics examined indicted a greater incidence of beneficial mutations and the breakdown of undesirable linkages with increased recombination. At both phenotypic and genotypic levels strong positive correlations between both primary branch number and capsule number with seed yield suggest that these traits are important for indirect improvement in sesame seed yield. As a result of the association analysis, sesame seed yield and its component traits improved significantly, which may be attributed to the independent polygenic mutations and enlarged recombination of the polygenes controlling the examined characteristics. Compared to the corresponding control treatment or to one cycle of mutagenic treatment, two cycles of mutagenic treatment resulted in increased variability, higher transgressive segregates, PTS mean and average transgression for sesame seed yield. These findings highlight the value of implementing two EMS treatment cycles to generate improved sesame lines. Furthermore, the extra variability created through hybridization may have potential in subsequent breeding research and improved seed yield segregants may be further advanced to develop ever-superior sesame varieties.

Abstract
Introduction: Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) breast is generally considered a reliable diagnostic tool to distinguish non-proliferative from proliferative breast lesions. Nevertheless, differentiating these breast lesions on FNAC poses a diagnostic challenge. Modified Masood Scoring System (MMSS) based on cytomorphological examination has been used to help in differentiating these lesions. Material and methods: A total of 67 patients were included in this prospective study done from November 2012 to May 2014 and the breast lesions were cytologically categorized by conventional and as per MMSS criteria, followed by comparison to a histopathological examination, which was taken as a gold standard. Relevant frequencies and proportions were calculated along with the sensitivity and specificity of the MMSS. Results: The age of the patients ranged from 15 to 85 years with a mean age of 44.3 ± 14.8 years. Females predominated in the study and right-sided breast lesions were more common compared to the left side. Overall diagnostic specificity (100%) and accuracy (97%) were higher using MMSS as compared to conventional cytology in which case specificity was 83.6% and accuracy was 82.1%. Conclusions: Cytological grading system based on MMSS allowed accurate and reproducible diagnosis compared to the standard histopathological diagnosis. It is essential to differentiate non-proliferative lesions from proliferative lesions as the line of treatment and prognosis varies.

Abstract
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard procedure for symptomatic cholelithiasis. During the procedure the cystic duct is ligated with titanium clips. Migration of these clips after cholecystectomy is a rare complication and may result in stone formation in common bile duct (CBD). We are here discussing a case of a 29 years female who presented with choledocholithiasis 10 years after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The clip was incidentally discovered during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and stone extraction. The patient was managed successfully at our center.

Abstract
Introduction: Emotional Intelligence (EI) is the ability to recognize one's own and other's emotions and capacity to utilize the emotional information to adjust to the environment. Nurse with high EI is found to have a better interpersonal relationship, higher job satisfaction, better leadership abilities, and better academic achievement. There is a gap in information regarding EI in nursing students of Morang district.
Objective: The objective of the study was to find out the emotional intelligence and its association with selected socio-demographic variables among undergraduate nursing students of selected colleges of Morang district, Nepal.
Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study carried out from June 2020 to November 2020 among 423 undergraduate nursing students of Purbanchal University School of Health Sciences, Hamro School of Nursing and Koshi Health and Science Campus. Ethical clearance was obtained from Purbanchal University School of Health Sciences- Institutional Review Committee (PUSHS-IRC) and informed consent were taken from study participants. A standard tool, “The Schutte Self Report Emotional Intelligence Test (SSEIT)” was used. Data was collected through a google form. Univariate and bivariate analysis was performed. P-value <0.05 at 95% confidence interval was considered statistically significant for bivariate analysis.
Results: Majority (75.4%) of nursing students had a high level of EI score and 24.6% of the students had a moderate level of EI score. There was no statistically significant association of total EI score with any of the selected demographic variables. Further, the selected domains such as perception of emotion with an academic year of study (p=0.02), occupation of the mother (p=0.017), management of other's emotions with a year of the study (p=0.018), and utilization of emotion with the type of schooling (p=0.003) were statistically significant.
Conclusion: Emotional intelligence was high and does not vary with different sociodemographic characteristics among nursing students.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal Mucormycosis (GIM) is a rare life-threatening angio-invasive infection. The classic risk factors include immunosuppression and metabolic derangement. Usually, there are classical risk factors in patients affected by Ileocecal mucormycosis. Few case reports have shown the absence of salient clinical presentation of mucormycosis in prolonged hospitalisation. The presence of association of mucormycosis in patients of typhoid infection is rare. Here, we present a case of invasive ileal mucormycosis occurring as a sequel to typhoid infection which lacked the typical risk factors for mucormycosis.

Abstract
We present the case of an enterovesical fistula (EVF) caused by ischemic enteritis. Ischemic enteritis is caused either by mesenteric macrovasculature occlusion or any pathophysiologic vasospasm of the microvasculature. In other words, ischemic enteritis (IE) occurs when the inflow of blood to the small intestines is reduced. The frequency of ischemic enteritis is less as compared to ischemic colitis because of the vast blood supply to the small intestine. It is the first case to be reported in the medical literature to date. EVF is a rare entity. It is a pathological connection between the bowel loops and the urinary bladder. EVF is a result of an underlying disease or injury. EVF is mostly caused by diverticular diseases, carcinoma colon, Crohn's, and inflammatory bowel disease, iatrogenic, appendicitis, carcinoma cervix, etc. Due to the formation of this abnormal connection, contents of the intestines, including the air, food content, etc., are usually found in the urine. Patients usually present with the complaint of irritative urinary tract symptoms and recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI). Surgical management is the mainstay of treatment although medical management is tried for those who cannot bear to undergo surgery.
