ABSTRACT
Background:Hypertension is one of the common causes of mortality and morbidity in pregnant women in India. Methods: We conducted a study on two hundred and eight 208n pregnant women consisting of 101 prim gravidae, 78 gravidae 2 and 33 multi gravidae; We conducted a study on this pregnant women between January 2017 to May 2017, In our hospital. Result: Seventeen (17 that means 8%) Pregnant women were having hypertension. Majority of pregnant women in the study population were prim gravidae (48%). Nearly 80% of hypertension pregnant woman were prim gravidae. 88% developed hypertension in III trimester. Complication like preeclampsia was in 24%. Conclusion: Pregnancy-induced Hypertension is the common variety of pregnant women. It is commonly seen in prim gravidae who are exposed to the trophoblastic tissue for the first time.
ABSTRACT
Background:Organophosphorus compounds controls and eradicates the insects and pets and saves the crops and plants, as agriculture is main contribution for economy in India. Organophosphorus compounds have contributed a lot in bringing the green revolution as most of the agriculture workers not follow the precautions. Accidental poisoning is more common and for various reasons it is commonly used as suicidal poison. Because of the neglected attitude of vegetable agents, the fruits and vegetables are also polluted with organophosphorus compounds. Methods: In our study we have examined 100 patients who were admitted in the emergency department. After thorough washing of the dead body blood samples send for RBS, SGOT, Urea and electrolyte. Result: Out of these 100 patients the major symptoms were nausea, vomiting, pain abdomen, excessive salvation, sweating. Major things were pinpoint pupils, offensive odor, allied sensorium and Brail cardia. Conclusion: Young people who belongs to agriculture families uses organophosphorus poison for suicidal purpose and chronic poisoning also common. So precautional measures to be taken to prevent chronic and accidental poisoning.
ABSTRACT
ackground:We have conducted this study on 400 normal healthy adults, males were 288, Females were 112 and the age group is 20 to 50 years. Electrocardiogram were taken after careful history and clinical examination and after ruling out any cardiac abnormality and other conditions also. The diseases particularly respiratory, electrolyte and endocrinal abnormalities will causes ECG changes. We have excluded symptomatic persons in the study. Aims and Objectives: To study the pattern of Rate, Rhythm, QR's Duration, PR interval, QT duration and ST. T changes which occurs in normal individuals and their relation to age. Material and Methods: In our study we have included 400 normal healthy subjects out of 400, 288 were males, 112 were female. We have taken the 12 lead ECG with standardization of 10mm. Results: Sinus Bradycardia is observed in 4 persons, tachycardia is observed in 16 subjects. Incomplete RBBB was observed in 8 subjects. Conclusion: Healthy individuals may have so many variations in ECG which were considered as with in Normal limits, so understanding normal ECG and deviations in normal individuals is very important to interpret the disease states and treating them.
ABSTRACT
Background:Thrombocytopaenia, decrease platelate count is seen in many viral fevers including heptitis 'C', HIV infections and malaria which is very comman in developing countries.[1] In Thrombocytopaenia due to viral Haemorrhagic fever, others features like increased haematocrit, leucopenia will present along with Thrombocytopaenia. Automated quatitative D3 analysis is used to detect Thrombocytopaeniain our study the commonest causes of Thrombocytopaenia is vivax malaria. Aims and Objectives: This study is to evaluate the Thrombocytopaenia as diagnostic and prognostic tool in viral fevers and malaria. Methods: In our study we have examined 200 patient’s acute febrile illness out of these 200 patients, 10 were diagnosed as dengue fever, 100 were diagnosed as Malaria. Thick and thin blood fever slides were prepared and examined by pathologist. Results: Out of 200 patients 110 were diagnosed as Malaria, 10 patients were diagnosed as Dengue fever Thrombocytopaenia is observed in 60 patients. Conclusion: Thrombocytopaenia is common in viral fevers and Malaria. After exclusion of dengue fever, malaria should be considered in all the patients with low platelet counts.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>INTRODUCTION</b>This study aimed to investigate secular trends in the prevalence of myopia over 6 decades (from the 1920s to 1980s) in Chinese adults in Singapore.</p><p><b>MATERIALS AND METHODS</b>Parental myopia prevalence was estimated using a parent-completed questionnaire in paediatric cohorts that included: 1) The Singapore Cohort Of Risk factors for Myopia (SCORM), 2) The Strabismus, Amblyopia and Refractive Error in Singaporean Children (STARS), and 3) The Growing Up in Singapore Towards healthy Outcomes (GUSTO). Published estimates for myopia prevalence from 5 adult studies in Singapore were reviewed. Secular trends in the prevalence of myopia were correlated with changes in the education system.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The prevalence of parental myopia in SCORM (n = 2943), STARS (n = 4938), and GUSTO (n = 1072) was 47.8%, 53.4%, and 73.4%, respectively; corresponding calendar years these parents might have started schooling were 1966, 1973, and 1983 (born in 1960, 1967, and 1977), respectively. Mean age of parents was 41.3, 40.1, and 33.4 years, respectively. Prevalence of myopia in adult studies in persons who started elementary school in 1928, 1934, 1938, 1939, 1942, 1948, 1952, 1958, 1962, 1972, 1982, and 1995 were 36.4%, 39.7%, 30.0%, 31.5%, 33.0%, 26.4%, 32.5%, 48.7%, 39.4%, 52.0%, 82.2%, and 85.9%, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>During the past few decades, the prevalence of myopia increased rapidly, especially in persons who started elementary school after the 1980s (born after 1970). The education system was expanded after Singapore's independence in 1965, and the new education system was introduced in 1978. These changes, together with increasing intensive schooling, may have contributed to the increase in myopia prevalence.</p>
ABSTRACT
Abstract The mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) disorders are rare genetic diseases caused by deficiencies in lysosomal enzymes involved in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans, leading to pulmonary, cardiac and neurological dysfunctions, skeletal anomalies, impaired vision, and/or hearing and shortened life spans. Whereas in the past, few individuals with MPS reached adulthood, better diagnosis, multidisciplinary care, and new therapies have led to an increasing number of adult patients with MPS. Therefore, fertility and pregnancy questions in this patient population are becoming more important. Management of fertility issues and pregnancy in patients with MPS is challenging due to the lack of documented cases and a dearth in the literature on this topic. This review presents multidisciplinary expert opinions on managing fertility and pregnancy based on case studies and clinical experience presented at a meeting of MPS specialists held in Berlin, Germany, in April 2015. An overview of the existing literature on this subject is also included.
ABSTRACT
The National Consense abot Spasticity by Brazilian Society of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (SBMFR) and Brazilian Medical Association (AMB) was done based on critical analysis of epidemiological studies, showing that traditional terapeutic resources need more studies for posterior approving
