RISK ASSESSMENT OF SUICIDE IN CLINICAL PRACTICE

Suicide is a global public health problem. Its management in clinical practice is complex and challenging . Studies show about 26% suicide in mental health system. Out of these, 14% commit suicide during hospital stay; about 50 90% have at least one psychiatric diagnosis. 60 70% of patients are hospitalized due to an attempt or potential crisis, about 15 20% attempt suicide prior to admission. Suicide is also common in post-discharge period. Every psychiatrist on an average loses atleast on client due to suicide in an average span of 20 years of practice. In about 70% of cases, suicide behavior is there as on for hospitalization in acute settings. Continuous training and skill development are two of the most important measures in clinical practice for dealing with suicide behavior. High suicide rates are reported in prodromal stage, acute illness, post-hospitalization and soon after discharge in the community. A clinician faces challenging situations while determining the level of care and referral for a patient with a high suicide potential. There is continued struggle amongst clinicians for decision-making in regards to the need for hospitalization, level of monitoring, voluntary status, and time of discharge. It is generally agreed that suicide is difficult to predict and prevent; however, in order to develop clinical excellence and offer a standard of care, continued education and knowledge translation for bringing research into practice is the least that can be done. Inspite of this need, continued education for mental health professionals and psychiatrists in-training remains limited. *Corresponding author: Amresh Shrivastava, Parkwood Institute, Mental health, 550 Wellington Road, London, ON N6C 0A7, Tel: (519) 646-6100; E-mail: dr.amresh@gmail.com Received Date: October 30, 2015 Accepted Date: November 29, 2016 Published Date: December 03, 2016
Ipsilateral fracture neck and shaft of femur: A prospective analysis of two methods

Background: Optimum management of ipsilateral fracture neck and shaft of femur is controversial and lacks general consensus. Both fractures should be treated with implants that optimize fracture healing while minimizing complications. Major issues are diagnosing occult fracture neck of femur combined with ipsilateral shaft fracture which may be part of polytrauma, surgical decision making, and work up to prioritize fixation and the selection of optimal implant. In this study, we report 18 cases of ipsilateral fracture neck and shaft treated with two methods, i.e., single implant which is a nail versus double implants for two fractures which can be cannulated hip screw, dynamic hip screw (DHS), and plate or distal femoral nail. Materials and Methods: A total of 18 patients were treated and divided into two groups. Group 1 included eight patients (six males, two females) who were operated with cancellous hip screws or DHS for fracture neck and compression plate fixation for fracture shaft of femur. Group II included ten patients (eight males and two females) who were operated with cephalomedullary nailing. Results: The mean age was 32 and 36 years in Group I and Group II, respectively. The mean delay in surgery was 5 and 6 days, respectively. Average union time for femoral neck fracture in Group I and Group II were 14.1 and 16.2 weeks, respectively, and for shaft fractures, these time were 20 and 22 weeks, respectively. There were 6 (75%) good, 2 (25%) fair functional results in Group I. There were 7 (70%) good, 2 (20%) fair, and 1 (10%) poor functional results in Group II. Conclusion: Both the treatment methods used in the study gives satisfactory functional results. In displaced fracture neck of femur, it is better to use double implants for both the fractures. Unlike isolated fracture neck of femur, union in fracture neck, and shaft is usually better. In most of the cases, fracture neck of femur was undisplaced and gave satisfactory results with cephalomedullary nails.

EVALUATION OF MODULATORY ROLE OF GABAPENTIN AND MORPHINE IN ACUTE PAIN IN ALBINO RATS

The drugs morphine and gabapentin were tested upon the albino rats using two experimental methods- thermally and chemically induced pain (acute pain models). A brief review of literature on pain, its modulation mechanisms, classification of analgesics and their description, review of drugs used in this study and various methods of evaluation of analgesics has been described. This study evaluated and obtained results with morphine and Gabapentin individually and their combined effect, and compared their analgesic effects with the standard drug morphine. It was observed that the Gabapentin enhanced the analgesic effect of Morphine in the acute pain models. Gabapentin a well-tolerated novel antiepileptic with ant nociceptive effects and with a known safety profile could be considered as co adjuvant with Morphine in acute severe pain. However, this study gives an idea that by combining gabapentin with morphine, it might be possible to reduce the dose of Morphine to overcome its drug tolerance, dependence and respiratory depression, as both these drugs act through different pain modulating mechanisms. Further studies are needed to interpret the additive or synergistic effect of this combination.
A survey on DMFT index of the first permanent molar in 12-year-old students of Larestan, Iran, in 2014

Received: October 2017, Accepted: April 2017 Background: One of the most important epidemiologic indices for the assessment and measurement of dental caries is the Decayed, Missing, and Filled Teeth (DMFT) index which is used as an important criterion for the evaluation of the oral and dental health status of individuals. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine DMFT6 (DMFT of the first permanent molar) index and the related factors with the caries free status in students of 12 years of age in Larestan, Iran, in 2014. Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional survey was conducted on 2436 students. Data were collected using the National Oral Health Promotion Plan Checklist. If the features of decayed, missing, and filled were observed in any of the first permanent molars, they received a score of 1. Data were analyzed using chi-square test, chi-squared test for trend, independent two-sample t-test, and multiple logistic regression model. Results: The mean and standard deviation of DMFT6 in all students was 1.00 ± 1.36. It was 1.07 ± 1.39 and 0.93 ± 1.33 in girls and boys, respectively, and this difference was statistically significant (P = 0.0080). In addition, more than half of the students (51.5%) were caries free. The variables of gender (P = 0.0007), mothers’ education (P < 0.0001), and fathers’ occupation (P = 0.0045) were determined as the related factors of the caries free variable in the logistic regression model. Conclusions: It seems that the amount of the DMFT6 index in students of 12 years of age in Larestan was high compared to the World Health Organization (WHO) standards in 2010. Therefore, it is recommended that efficient plans be made to promote the oral and ‎dental health of students.
The novel model: Experimental optical coherence tomography–guided anterior segment imaging chick embryo model

Purpose: The aim of this study was to present an experimental optical coherence tomography (OCT)–guided anterior segment (AS) imaging chick embryo model. Through this model, we aimed to reveal similarities and differences between human cornea, AS tissues, and chick embryo tissues by quantitative image analysis. Methods: Ex vivo, the chick embryos' globes were determined by detailed AS camera of spectral-domain (SD)-OCT in 10 fertilized specific pathogen-free eggs on the 20th day. Quantitative image analysis of anterior chamber tissues was performed with SD-OCT in detail. After imaging, cross sections of the chick embryo globes containing cornea with anterior chamber were histologically examined and compared with human tissues. The similarities of our model with data in the human cornea and AS studies in the literature were compared. Results: SD-OCT imaging was able to successfully delineate the AS tissues of chick embryos such as the cornea, iris, lens, pupil, conjunctiva, ciliary body, anterior chamber, and lens. Quantitative semi-automated measurements showed the following: mean central corneal thickness: 213.4 ± 7.05 μm (197–223 μm), mean anterior chamber depth: 878.9 ± 41.74 (804–919 μm), mean anterior chamber area: 2.43 ± 0.16 mm2 (2.17–2.73 mm2), mean corneoscleral junction (limbal) thickness: 322.8 ± 20.05 μm (289–360 μm), and mean iris thickness: 230.4 ± 13.27 μm (203–245 μm). In addition, detailed histological comparisons of the AS tissues with human tissues were evaluated to be very similar. Conclusion: In conclusion, this chick embryo model mimics human tissues and it can be considered as a platform for the study of teratogen-induced malformations and AS dysgenesis during gestation of AS tissues. In addition, this study demonstrates the feasibility of SD-OCT in the quantitative assessment of AS structures in chick embryo model.
Biodegradable collagen matrix implant for trabeculectomy

The biodegradable collagen matrix implant, marketed initially as OculusGen™ and currently as Ologen™ and iGen™, is a novel bioengineered implant designed to be used at the time of trabeculectomy. It consists of a collagen-based scaffold containing thousands of microscopic pores. The implant is placed directly over the scleral flap and influences the healing process by forcing fibroblasts and myofibroblasts to grow into the pores and secrete connective tissue in the form of a loose matrix. This results in decreased scar formation and improved surgical success over trabeculectomy performed without the adjunctive use of antifibrotic agents. Preliminary studies have demonstrated that the biodegradable collagen matrix is effective for use in trabeculectomy, although it may be associated with an increased risk of early postoperative hypotony. Future randomized, controlled trials should help determine its place in glaucoma surgery.

Metabolic syndrome and subclinical Atherosclerosis: association, remodeling and its associated risk factors

This dissertation sought to examine the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its association with subclinical atherosclerosis, carotid artery remodeling and its related risk factors, as well as the longitudinal effect of MetS status changes on carotid artery remodeling, in midlife women in three manuscripts. In the first manuscript, the MetS, via all definitions, was significantly associated with measures of subclinical atherosclerosis. The MetS components most strongly and consistently associated with carotid IMT and plaque were higher blood pressure and greater fasting glucose across all definitions considered in the current study. In the second manuscript, the MetS was significantly associated with maladaptive remodeling of the common carotid artery. Our findings also showed that the association between MetS and carotid artery remodeling was independent of select measure of inflammatory, hemodynamic, and metabolic risk factors. Finally, we observed differential maladaptive remodeling patterns of the common carotid artery with MetS status by race/ethnicity. In the third manuscript, midlife women with persistent MetS status were observed to have maladaptive remodeling of the carotid artery compared to those who never developed MetS over time after adjusting for potential confounders. Higher systolic blood pressure and larger waist circumference were significant and consistent determinants of adverse carotid artery remodeling in our current study. Each manuscript contributes uniquely to public health. Metabolic syndrome is associated with subclinical atherosclerosis in midlife women. Pharmacological intervention and lifestyle changes to target and prevent the metabolic syndrome construct or its components among midlife women may subsequently slow or reduce progression of atherosclerosis.
A 2-chip 1.5 Gb/s bus-oriented serial link interface

The authors report a monolithic transmitter and receiver chip pair which implements a full-duplex virtual ribbon cable interface. For short-distance applications, on-chip equalizer is provided to allow use of coaxial cables rather than a more costly fiber link. The chips require no external frequency-determining elements or user adjustments and operate over a range of 600 to 1500 MHz using an on-chip VCO (voltage-controlled oscillator). Only one in-package capacitor per chip is required. A state-machine controller (SMC) is also implemented on the RX chip to transparently handle a start-up handshake protocol. This is the highest-speed-link-interface chipset reported to date at this level of functionality and integration. <<ETX>>
P295 Patients’ Preference Of Established And Emerging Treatments For Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

Background Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is the most common form of sleep-disordered breathing, and the standard treatment is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Emerging treatments for OSA, including electrical hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) and non-invasive electrical stimulation (nES), are currently being developed. To involve patients in the development of research projects, we evaluated patients’ preference for different treatments of OSA using a short survey. Patients and methods We recorded patients’ age, gender, body-mass-index (BMI), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ10), severity of OSA, and current treatment. We showed pictures of existing (CPAP, mandibular advancement device (MAD)) and emerging treatments (HNS and nES). We then asked 1) whether they were interested in further information about HNS/nES, 2) if they would be willing to try HNS/nES, and 3) if they were to choose only one of the four listed treatments, which one would they prefer to use every night. Results 162 patients completed the survey (81 males, mean age 52 (12) years, BMI 34 (7.3) kg/m2, ESS 10.2 (6.0) points, FOSQ10 28.5 (8.1) points). The majority of the respondents (89.5%) had been diagnosed with OSA, with 95.4% of those being treated with CPAP. 91.3% of the respondents were interested in more information and were willing to try HNS/nES. Most respondents preferred the potential use of nES (56.7%), while 21.7% chose HNS, 17.8% CPAP, and 3.8% the MAD. There were no differences in the characteristics of the patients who preferred nES compared to those who preferred other treatments; however, a regression analysis showed that a low ESS score was a predictor of patients choosing nES (p < 0.05). Conclusion Although the CPAP is the established treatment for OSA, most patients would prefer alternatives for long-term treatment. The majority of the respondents were interested in emerging technologies, with less sleepy patients more likely to choose less invasive treatment options.
Phytochemicals, Nutritonal Constituents, Anti-bacterial and Hypoglycemic Activity of Aegle Marmelos Lin. Leaf Extract in Alloxan Induced Diabetic Rats

Aegle marmelos is a popular medicinal plant in the Ayurvedic and siddha systems of medicine and folk medicines used to dreat a wide variety of ailments. Aegle marmelos is locally known as “Bael” found everywhere in Bangladesh and many other countries of the world. The nutritional composition of Aegle marmelos leaves was determined by standard method. The proximate composition of leaves revealed moisture (infant 37.80 gm%, mature 40.01 gm% and ripen 32.50 gm%), ash (infant 0.012 gm%, mature 0.82 gm% and ripen 0.75 gm%), pH (infant 6.30, mature 6.00 and ripen 6.15), total sugar (infant 0.9 gm%, mature 1.9 gm% and ripen 1.7 gm%), reducing sugar (infant 0.30 gm%, mature 0.90 gm% and ripen 0.75 gm%), non-reducing sugar (infant 0.57 gm% mature 0.95 gm% and ripen 0.90 gm %), starch (infant 0.8 gm%, mature 2.5 gm% and ripen 2.0 gm%), crude fiber (infant 8.1 gm%, mature 11.0 gm% and ripen 9.5 gm%). Vitamin C for (infant, mature and ripen leaves contain 3.5 gm%, 7.1 gm%, 6.0 gm%) respectively. Total phenol present in (1.9 gm%, 5.01 gm%, 3.99 gm% for infant, mature and ripen) respectively. The leaves also contain negligible amount of cholesterol. The leaves also contain sodium (infant 2.5%, mature 7.0% and ripen 6.5%), Potassium (infant 1.52%, mature 5.001% and ripen 3.99%), Calcium (infant 0.001%, mature 0.25% and ripen 0.21%), Phosphorous (infant 3.5%, mature 7.82% and ripen 7.11%) etc. This experiment also showed significantly reduction of blood glucose level of diabetic rats (P<0.001). A large number of populations in Bangladesh have been suffering from malnutrition. For the ignorance of people, they don’t know the nutritive value of different kinds of foods. It has important role as a source of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients in human diet, which are necessary. The present study was investigated the Phytochemicals activity, Nutritional Properties, Antibacterial Activity and hyperglycemic effect of aqueous extract of A. marmelos leaves on diabetic rats.
Aetiology, epidemiology, and management of traveller's diarrhoea.

Traveller’s diarrhoea (TD) is the most frequent health problem faced by travellers to developing countries. The epidemiology of TD has been extensively studied, but from the aetiologic point of view, new enteropathogens have emerged as causes of TD. The great diversity of aetiologies and the difficulty in avoiding the risks inherent in travel classifies TD avoidance as an important part of pre-travel advice. TD reflects a highly prevalent health problem in poor countries where diarrhoeal diseases are a major public health priority. Research could give some answers to both problems in the future. & 2003 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins
Neural network implementation on a FPGA

This work implemented a feedforward neural network on a FPGA (field programmable gate array). A study was conducted to find the minimum precision required to maintain a recognition rate of at least 95% for two characters within an optical character recognition application. To reduce the circuit size, the bit serial architecture was realised to perform the arithmetic operation. This resulted in an optimal use of the FPGA resources.
Smart Service: Determinants Influencing Individual users' Intention to Adopt AppStore and the Moderating Effect of Value

As knowledge-based society comes to the fore, sharing knowledge becomes a hot issue. Among various types of knowledge, a significance of software(applications) and contents is a huge in a current society. Moreover, along with appearance of smartphone, for instance iPhone, Application Store(also known as AppStore) utilized as a common gateway for sharing software and contents, brings a big interest for many users and developers. However, prior research to understand users` behavior on AppStore has been a scant. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of key smart service environmental factors on AppStore in order to empirically explain users` psychological feelings of intention to use AppStore. Based on a well-known technology adoption model, TAM, the study incorporates three main characteristics(user, society, and service) with six constructs(Innovation, Enjoyment, Subjective Norm, Information Level, Content variety, and Cost), influencing perceived usefulness, which then affects users` intention to use AppStore. Results provide evidence that support the tested hypotheses. The implications of the findings suggest a new theoretical work for future AppStore research and offers suggestions that the researchers and practitioners of AppStore should consider regarding the development of application and contents.
Transmission parameters of underwater communication channels

The underwater environment is tough and demanding as a communication channel for ultrasonic signals. The channel transmission characteristics in marine and inland waters depend much on local bathymetry and changing weather conditions. The architecture and performance of a reliable underwater acoustic communication (UAC) system should allow real-time adaptation of its transmission parameters to a large variety of possible channel characteristics. The paper presents an adaptation procedure based on the WSS-US statistical model developed for wireless telecommunication systems. The channel is there characterized by measurements of instantaneous channel impulse response being then a basis for estimation of the channel statistical characteristics and extraction of related parameters in the phase of communication handshake, and next used in the adaptive design of digital communication system transmission settings recorded at the physical and link layers of the communication protocol
Graciela Uribe Ortega y la transición de la geografía mexicana

Los nuevos rumbos de la geografia mexicana, en los anos noventa del siglo XX, se vincularon a la figura de Graciela Uribe Ortega (1928-2000). Al inicio de su vida academica, que abarco los anos sesenta, estudio los cambios sociales y culturales del mundo rural en el area de la Araucania, a traves de la intervencion del Estado chileno, el repliegue de los grupos indigenas y la llegada de los colonos europeos. Mas tarde, su mirada trazo el mapa industrial de Chile, tema central de su tesis de doctorado en la Universidad Comenius, en Bratislava. A su regreso a Chile, impulso un programa de investigacion de geografia cuantitativa en el Instituto de Geografia de la Universidad de Chile, tanto a escala nacional, como regional y local. Esta trayectoria se rompio con el golpe de Estado del 11 de septiembre de 1973, cuando ella era detenida y declarada “prisionera de guerra” por los militares golpistas. Un largo exilio europeo la llevo a ella y a su familia por Dinamarca y luego a Finlandia. Decidida a recuperar su vida academica, a finales de 1979, inicio la aventura mexicana. En 1985, ingreso a la Facultad de Filosofia y Letras de la Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico. Su pensamiento dio un giro, ahi llevo una nueva vision de la geografia politica, como disciplina academica, un campo de investigacion que ella propuso a traves de las clases que impartio y las tesis de sus alumnos.
