RESUMEN
Context/Background: Child Sexual Abuse is a broad term used to describe sexual offences against chil-dren. Both genders are at risk of sexual abuse. Very few studies have conducted to assess the knowledge among school students. The study was conducted for documenting knowledge and attitude of child sexu-al abuse and socio-demographic profile among school children. Methodology: We enrolled 128 school students after getting permission from school principal. First, we had filled pre-designed semi structure questionnaire about their knowledge and attitude about types of touch and what to do if it happens. Participation in the research was strictly voluntary and all the data were kept strictly confidential. Results: All the participants were girls (100%). Majority of our participants were of 10 years (95.1%) of age. Current study revealed that very few participants were knowing about good touch and bed touch. Most of the participants didn’t knew about the private parts of the body and similarly most of the partic-ipants didn’t knew what to do if anything happens to them. Conclusions: Present study recommends generating awareness about child sexual abuse among chil-dren, parents, and general population, via training through well-structured program.

Total 193 diabetic patients were investigated to assess the prevalence of microalbuminuria. Urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) was measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA) on 3 hours urine samples. The prevalence of microalbuminuria (UAER) > 15 micrograms/min was 41%. Microalbuminuria was commonly observed in patients having diabetes for more than 5 years. A significant correlation was found between duration of diabetes and microalbuminuria (p < 0.01). Glycemic control (fasting and postprandial blood sugar) did not show any correlation with UAER, whereas blood urea (r.39, p < 0.01), creatinine (r.26, p < 0.05) and chloride (r.24, p < 0.05) were positively correlated. A significant correlation was found between raised blood pressure and UAER (p < 0.01).

An adult schizophrenic patient developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome following treatment with parenteral haloperidol. An early recognition of the syndrome, immediate discontinuation of the offending agent and prompt treatment with bromocriptine and lorazepam produced a good recovery. The various features of the case are discussed in view of the potential lethality of the syndrome.

The present report describes the clinical and angio-cardiographic features of 23 cases of tricuspid atresia. Nineteen patients had type I anatomy, 2 patients had type II anatomy and 2 patients had type III anatomy. In addition to the standard features, there were some uncommon associations observed. These included double outlet right ventricle, double outlet left ventricle, single coronary artery, complete heart block, right axis deviation, ostium primum atrial septal defect and coarctation of the aorta.

Selective Beta Blocker Tenolol (IPCA) 50 mg. (A50) and 100 mg. (A100) single dose drug therapy was tried in 25 cases of angina pectoris. Hypertensives were excluded from trial. There were 4 diabetics. Drug trial over a period of 4 weeks revealed subjective and objective improvement with A50 and A100 assessed at the end of 2 and 4 weeks. The average angina attacks/2 wks. was 13.12 +/- 11.26 in basal state whereas the reduction in angina attacks was 6.285 +/- 8.80 with Tenolol 50 mg. and 3.72 +/- 2.86 with 100 mg which was statistically significant. Objective assessment of each patient done by Computerised Stress Test (CST) at the end of 2 and 4 weeks of Tenolol 50 mg and 100 mg revealed statistically significant improvement in their ST depression i.e. 3.645 +/- 1.463 mm basal ST depression, 1.692 +/- 1.680 after Tenolol 50 mg and 2.318 +/- 1.270 after Tenolol 100 mg. There was statistically significant fall in systolic BP (SBP) and double product (DP) both with A50 and 100 mg. Only one patient had slow ventricular tachycardia and mild hypotension during CST.
