This study aims to characterize the practice of female interventional radiologists (IRs) from India and identify gender-related barriers. It provides insights and baseline data to guide initiatives advancing gender equity and diversity in the specialty. A cross sectional study of female members of the Indian Society of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (ISVIR) was conducted between February and July 2025. Respondents provided demographic data and perspectives on leadership, work–life balance, gender bias, and career satisfaction. Descriptive analysis and logistic regression identified predictors of career outcomes. ISVIR registry listed 1,553 members, of whom 163 (10.5

IntroductionThis bibliometric analysis examines the global research landscape on viral marketing using data extracted from the Scopus database and analyzed with Biblioshiny, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace. Viral marketing, characterized by rapid message dissemination through digital networks and consumer sharing, has gained significant scholarly attention across diverse disciplines. ObjectiveThe annual scientific output reveals a steady growth in publications, reflecting increasing academic interest and the evolution of research themes over time. MethodAnalysis of top influential researcher’s highlights key contributors shaping the field’s theoretical and methodological advancements. Prominent scientific journals, particularly in marketing, consumer behavior, and information systems, serve as primary publication outlets, fostering interdisciplinary dialogue. ResultsGlobal research contributions by nation indicate that the United States, China, and India are leading producers, supported by active collaborations illustrated in the timeline network visualization of country partnerships. Co-citation analysis of cited authors and journals uncovers core intellectual foundations and interlinked knowledge domains. Bibliographic coupling of documents and co-occurrence of author keywords reveal thematic clusters that define the research focus, while thematic evolution and the thematic map highlight the transition from foundational studies to emerging topics such as social media analytics and influencer marketing. Trend topic analysis indicates growing emphasis on data-driven targeting, user engagement, and algorithmic influence modeling. ConclusionsThe study identifies research gaps in cross-cultural comparative studies, ethical considerations, and the integration of emerging technologies into viral marketing strategies, with practical implications for marketers seeking to optimize campaigns in a rapidly evolving digital environment.

The musculoskeletal pains affecting the joints and spine represent a frequent and clinically relevant issue in competitive athletes, which may go beyond the immediate injury event and affect the functional outcome in the long run. Although the literature in sports medicine has traditionally focused on the use of return-to-play measures, increasing literature has focused on the use of pain trajectory, quality of recovery, and the possibility of progression to chronic musculoskeletal disease. This is a systematic review of existing research on musculoskeletal pain epidemiology, mechanisms, and recovery rates, related to joint and spine injuries in the athletic population. A close focus is done on overuse-related pain syndromes, spine disorders, joint injuries, and bone stress injuries and sex and age-specific considerations. The evidence-based rehabilitation strategies, the multidisciplinary management strategies, and the prevention models are discussed, focusing on the clinically meaningful outcomes, including the pain elimination, functional recovery, and elimination of the recurrence. The methodological standards such as the outcome reporting and evidence appraisal are addressed in order to contextualize the quality and relevance of the current research. This review seeks to fill the gap between sports medicine, pain science, and musculoskeletal disease management by incorporating opinions on both sides of the equation: research on athletic injury and the field of rheumatologic and pain practice. The joint- and spine-based understanding of musculoskeletal pain in athletes could inform prevention strategies at the early stage, reduce the risk of chronic pain and sustain long-term musculoskeletal health of the active population.

Suction blister epidermal grafting (SBEG) is a time-tested surgical treatment to correct small patches of stable vitiligo on any part of the body. The cosmetic result, especially on the lips, is highly satisfying. The most difficult part of this procedure is graft retention on the dermabraded lip. In this article, we present our observation of open and closed dressing in the same patient who underwent SBEG on the lip and chin simultaneously. We find that the results of the open dressing are equally good as the closed dressing area.

Purpose of review The global obesity epidemic has significantly altered the epidemiology of chronic liver disease and liver transplantation, with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis emerging as a rapidly increasing indication for liver transplantation worldwide. Obesity in liver transplantation candidates is frequently accompanied by sarcopenia, frailty, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic comorbidities, creating complex perioperative and long-term management challenges. This review summarizes contemporary evidence regarding assessment, pretransplant preparation, perioperative management, and long-term outcomes of obese liver transplant recipients, while highlighting evolving therapeutic strategies and unresolved clinical questions. Recent findings Recent literature emphasizes that BMI alone inadequately characterizes obesity in cirrhosis, with body composition, sarcopenic obesity, visceral adiposity, and frailty emerging as important prognostic factors. Structured prehabilitation, lifestyle modification, incretin-based pharmacotherapy, and selective metabolic bariatric surgery have shown promising results in carefully selected patients. Although obesity increases perioperative complexity and postoperative complications, carefully selected obese recipients can achieve graft and patient survival comparable to nonobese recipients. Summary Obesity should not be considered a contraindication to liver transplantation. Individualized recipient assessment, coordinated perioperative optimization, and long-term metabolic surveillance are essential to improve outcomes. Future research should refine obesity assessment beyond BMI and clarify the optimal integration of pharmacologic and surgical weight-loss strategies in liver transplantation candidates before and after transplantation.
