ABSTRACT
Background: Research of so many years from the procurable world data has shown that the reasons for most colorectal cancers occur due to change in life style the type of diet, smoking as well as the influence of the surrounding environment in which man lives and increasing age with only a minority of cases associated with genetic disorders. Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer. In the first half of the 20th century, mortality from colorectal surgery often exceeded 20%, mainly attributed to sepsis.Methods: The randomized prospective study was conducted on 202 colorectal cancer patients in the department of Colorectal division of General and Minimal Invasive surgery” Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Srinagar.Results: Mean age of patients in Group 1 (with no mechanical bowel preparation (NMBP)) was 51±18.15 years while as same was 50±17.76 years for Group 2 (with mechanical bowel preparation (MBP)). Age range for Group 1 was 16-87 years and16-85 years for Group 2. Regarding outcomes, wound infections were 6.1% and 3.8% in Group 1 and Group 2 respectively. While disruption of anastomosis were 2.0% and 3.8% in group A and B respectively.Conclusions: Statistically no gross difference in terms of morbidity and mortality was found between the use of mechanical bowel preparation versus no use of mechanical bowel preparation in elective colorectal surgery. Elective Colorectal Surgery can safely be performed without enduring MBP in it as it does not possess any sorts of benefits.
ABSTRACT
Abstract Introduction The study is aimed to outline the vector of colorectal cancer incidence in the industrial Aktobe province of western Kazakhstan through the first decade of the screening implementation, 2009-2018. Methods Rough incidence rates and annual percent changes were estimated for each age group at diagnosis, ethnicities, gender, residences, the disease stages and anatomic subsites (total N 1128) via regression analysis. Results Within 2009-2018 colorectal cancer rates increased from 14.74 to 23.19, with annual percent changes of 4.69%. The most significant growth was traced in men compared to women, up to 28.39 by 2018, with annual percent changes 6.64% vs. 2.64% (p = 0.0009). Annual percent changes in Kazakhs reached 8.7%, whereas Slavic groups showed decline in the incidence, annual percent changes −4.3% (p = 0.002). Declining in rates was also observed in urban population compared to rural one, annual percent changes −3.3% vs. 17.6%, respectively. Patients aged 60-69 made 31% of all cases and showed the largest annual percent changes 9.37% (p = 0.002). Patients at Stage II made 61% of all observations, but general trend evidenced sharp growth in the group of Stage I (annual percent changes 28.91%, p < 0.0001). Conclusion Overall, during the last decade colorectal cancer incidence increased 1.5 fold with expected further rise. However, the increment of Stage I portion by 2018 vs. advanced stages at diagnosis and the trend to decrease in rates among urban population inspire a definite assurance in potential efficiency of the screening program in long run. The next researches on colorectal cancer should include scenarios to reveal the role of disadvantaged environment in the region and consuming unhealthy ultra-processed food.
Resumo Introdução O objetivo do estudo é delinear o vetor da incidência do câncer colorretal na província industrial de Aktobe, no oeste do Cazaquistão, durante a primeira década da implementação do rastreamento, 2009‒2018. Métodos Taxas de incidência brutas e alterações percentuais anuais foram estimadas para cada faixa etária ao diagnóstico, etnias, sexo, residências, estágios da doença e localizações anatômicas (N total de 1.128) através da análise de regressão. Resultados Entre 2009‒2018, as taxas de câncer colorretal aumentaram de 14,74 para 23,19, com alteração percentual anual de 4,69%. O crescimento mais significativo foi evidenciado em homens em comparação com as mulheres, até 28,39 em 2018, com alterações percentuais anuais de 6,64% contra 2,64% (p = 0,0009). Alterações percentuais anuais nos cazaques atingiu 8,7%, enquanto os grupos eslavos mostraram declínio na incidência, alterações percentuais anuais -4,3% (p = 0.002). O declínio nas taxas também foi observado na população urbana em comparação com a rural, alterações percentuais anuais -3,3% vs. 17,6%, respectivamente. Pacientes com idade entre 60‒69 anos eram 31% de todos os casos e apresentaram as maiores alterações percentuais anuais 9,37% (p = 0,002). Os pacientes no Estágio II eram 61% de todas as observações, mas a tendência geral evidenciou crescimento acentuado no grupo do Estágio I (alterações percentuais anuais 28.91%; p < 0,0001). Conclusão No geral, durante a última década, a incidência de câncer colorretal aumentou 1,5 vezes com expectativa de maior aumento. No entanto, o incremento da porção do Estágio I em 2018 em comparação com os estágios avançados no momento do diagnóstico e a tendência de diminuição nas taxas entre a população urbana inspira uma garantia definitiva de eficiência potencial do programa de rastreamento em longo prazo. As próximas pesquisas sobre o câncer colorretal devem incluir cenários para revelar o papel do ambiente desfavorecido na região e o consumo de alimentos ultraprocessados não saudáveis.

Introduction: Neonatal hypernatremic dehydration is amedical emergency. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatmentis crucial for survival and better prognosis. However, diagnosisis often difficult due to apparent well being and dehydration isunderestimated. The aim of our study was to see the outcomeof neonates admitted with hypernatremic dehydration in ourhospitalMaterial and Methods: The study was conducted inneonatology of Postgraduate Department of Pediatrics, inGB Pant Hospital, an associated hospital of GovernmentMedical College Srinagar. It was a hospital based prospectiveobservational study conducted for 1 year, from March 2016to February 2017. A total of 67 neonates were enrolled in ourstudy.Results: The results showed mean age of presentation 18days, females were 37(55.5%), mean birth order was 1.6,44(65.7%) cases were from rural background,62 (92.5%) ofour cases were term babies, an average weight loss of 14.6%was found. There was a significant statistical relation in thepercentage of weight loss, incidence of shock, incidence ofAKI and sodium levels(p value<0.001).Conclusion: Women should be educated about theproper technique of breast feeding during prenatal visitsand after the delivery of the newborn. Mothers should beinformed about ‘ten steps of successful breast feeding’.All breast-fed infant should be weighed at least onceseveral days after discharge
