Authors: Singh Usha , Anjum Shazia
Published: March 2023

Introduction:Abortion is dened as pregnancy termination or loss before 20 weeks gestation or with a fetus delivered weighing & lt; 500g. About
80% of spontaneous pregnancy losses occur in rst trimester. Aim: To evaluate & study pregnancy outcome in cases with history of previous
spontaneous abortions. Objective: To compare the outcomes of pregnant women with history of previous spontaneous abortion and pregnant
women without any history of previous abortion. Methods: Total 200 patient were studied 100 cases(with previous history of spontaneous
abortion) and 100 control(without history previous abortion) for foetomaternal outcome. Results: A total of 100 patients with history of previous
spontaneous abortion were admitted. Majority (58 %) of patients belong to the age group 21-25 years. Maximum patients (77%) were with history
of previous one abortion followed by previous two abortions (17%). The nal outcomes were term live birth (64%), abortion (6%), preterm
delivery (16%), and PROM (10%). Caesarian section was done in 33% patients for various indications in cases. In control group term live birth
(93%),abortion(1%),preterm (4%) and IUGR (1%).Caesarian section was done in 2% control group. Conclusions: Our study showed that
previous history of spontaneous abortion is associated with adverse pregnancy outcome like increased risk of abortion, preterm delivery, need for
caesarean sections and fetal loss in cases of previous spontaneous abortions

Authors: Jalodara Dhruti , V. Oza Hina
Published: March 2023

Ovarian neoplasm is the most common lesion seen in female of any age
group. Ovarian cancer not an uncommon clinical entity among all
[1] gynecologic tumors and is the most fatal gynecologic malignancy.
Ovarian cyst can be physiological or pathological. Physiological cysts
are mainly follicular cysts and luteal cysts which are benign in nature.
Pathological cysts are mainly ovarian tumors which can be benign,
[2] borderline or malignant. Benign diseases of ovary are commonest
accounting for 90% of ovarian diseases. Benign lesions of ovary are
two types non-neoplastic and neoplastic. Benign cysts are often
asymptomatic and may be detected on ultrasound performed for some
other cause or on routine scan. They may be symptomatic due to
[3] complications or large size when they require treatment. Benign
tumors are more common in young females and malignant tumors are
[4] more common in elderly females. According to World Health
Organization histological classication ovarian tumors are subdivided
into surface epithelial stromal tumors, sex cord stromal tumors, germ
cell tumors, malignant and not otherwise specied and metastatic non
ovarian tumors from non-ovarian primary according to the tissue of
origin. Germ cell tumors is the commonest benign tumor and epithelial
[5] cell tumor is the commonest malignant one. However, diagnosis
could be made only after the histopathological examination of ovarian
cysts

ST depression in II, III AVF and T wave inversion was found in 7 and 6 cases respectively, low voltage QRS in 5 cases. Other rare ECG
abnormalities like lead I sign and SI, S II, S III was found in 2 and 1 cases respectively. Rhythm abnormalities like ventricular ectopics, RBBB are
found in 2 cases and multi focal atrial tachycardia in 1 case. Conclusion: COPD is commonly seen in persons above 40 years of age ie., in the
middle and old aged people. - It is more common among males. - It is associated with the smoking pattern of more than 20 pack years
AN OVERVIEW OF SECONDARY IMMUNODEFICIENCY STATES IN CHILDREN ADMITTED TO PAEDIATRIC INTENSIVE CARE UNIT IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL IN GUNTUR DISTRICT OF ANDHRA PRADESH
Authors: Begum Tanveer , Dumdi Nandini Duppati , B S Tony
Published: March 2023

Objective: To review the different causes of secondary immunodeciencies in children requiring prolonged hospital stay or recurrent hospital
admissions and provide clinicians with an updated overview of potential factors that contribute to immunodeciency in a tertiary care hospital over
18 months. Background Immunocompromised status is the common cause of morbidity and mortality in hospital-admitted children. Secondary
immunodeciency contributes to most of the immunocompromised states rather than primary, resulting from a variety of extrinsic factors that can
affect a host with an intrinsically normal immune system, including undernutrition, infectious agents, drugs, metabolic diseases, and
environmental conditions. In routine clinical practice, these arise from a number of conditions, such as treatment with glucocorticoids and
immuno-modulatory drugs, surgery and trauma, extreme environmental conditions, and chronic infections, such as those caused by HIV. The most
common cause of immunodeciency is malnutrition, affecting many communities around the world with restricted access to food resources [1].
Methods This is a retrospective observational study using hospital records of children aged 1 month to 12 years, admitted to PICU from January
2021 to August 2022 in a tertiary care hospital in the Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh, India, who were underweight, or on some
immunosuppressive agents and those who had hospital stay lasting more than 14 days and who needed >14 days of intravenous antibiotic. Results
In children less than 1 year, protein energy malnutrition especially SAM is the most common cause of secondary immunodeciency. Among
children older than 1 year, children using steroids for nephrotic syndrome constitute the major cause. As secondary immunodeciency Conclusion
disorders are far more common than primary immunodeciency disorders. PEM is the most common cause in children less than 1 year, Exclusive
breastfeeding should be advised to all children, and attention to nutritional supplementation should be given as early as possible. Even brief
exposure to steroids may land children into a state of immunosuppression, so judicious use of steroids is mandatory and regular follow-up is
necessary.

Published: March 2023

Plaque biolms is the primary etiology for periodontitis. Mechanical debridement procedures to treat periodontitis still remain the gold standard
but adjunctive antimicrobial therapy is also required in certain cases. However the use of antibiotics has their own disadvantages of creating
resistant bacterial forms as well as systemic side effects. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a novel non-invasive therapeutic approach which
overcomes these problems. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) or photochemotherapy has increased pathogen specicity as well as site specicity and
hence no systemic effects. PDTinvolves the use of a photosensitiser which on exposure to light of specic wavelength, gets activated, to form toxic
oxygen species which further cause a localised photodamage and cell death. As PDT is with no localised as well as systemic adverse effects, its
application in periodontal disease treatment continues to evolve into a mature clinical treatment modality.

الخواجه شمس الدين حافظ الشيرازي احد عباقرة العالم في شعر والأدب  ، وقد توهج نجمه في الأدب العالمي مثل الشمس وأضاء مسار طريق العشاق من خلال العلم والأدب ، أما أبو حفص شرف الدين عمر بن علي بن مرشد الحموي المشهور بـ(ابن الفارض المصري) فهو من أعظم وأشهر الشعراء الصوفية في الأدب العربي.

إن هذا البحث يظهر الدقة في شعر حافظ  وابن الفارض في العديد من النواحي في محورين هما :

اللفظ .

المعنى .

وهذا أحد أهم أوجه التشابه بينهما فيما يتعلق بالعلاقة بين الشاعرين بالتصوف في العالم الإسلامي ، وابن عربي ، من خلال النظر في أفكارهم وتعاليمهم،  وتعزى قضية التعصب وظهور النشوة في حياتهم اليومية إلى أوجه التشابه في شعرهما وشخصياتهما ، وبخاصة إشتراكهما في تفسير الخمر الذي يشكل إحدى العلامات الفارقة والرئيسية في شعر حافظ وابن الفارض ، مما أدى إلى ظهور شروحات لشعرهما ، ولا يرى النقاد في الشاعرين ، أنهما كتبا الشعر في الجانب الروحي فقط ، بل كتبا في الجوانب المادية أيضا ، وفي هذه المقالة نحاول أن ندرس أوجه الشبه لمفهوم الخمر من وجهة نظر الشاعرين .

Published: March 2023

Vitiligo is an acquired pigmentary dermatosis where the destruction of epidermal melanocytes causes leukoderma. This dermatosis can be associated with many autoimmune or other pathologies. Purpose of the series was to study the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of vitiligo and the frequency of associated pathologies, especially autoimmune ones, among thirty patients followed up for vitiligo in dermatology consultations in Marrakech during 4 years (2019-2022). In the present series out of 30 cases 22 (73.3%) were females and 8 (26.7%) were males. The mean age of our patients was 41.20 years. 21 patients (70%) had one or more associated pathologies such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, diabetes type I, diabetes type II, dysthyroidism, Sjögren’s syndrome, alopecia areata, depression and anxiety. Vitiligo appeared after the associated disease in 40% (12 cases) and had preceded it in 43.3% (13 cases) and concomitantly in only one case (3.3%). Vitiligo is a chronic acquired autoimmune dermatosis, often associated with/or discovered by other autoimmune or other pathologies.

Published: March 2023

Introduction: in recent years, scientists have looked into the subject of love addiction given the neurobiological, psychological and behavioral similarities of people who have experienced this feeling, which is described by some as a mystery and by others as a disease in its own right. What about the psychiatric and scientific point of view? Does an addiction to a person or an emotion exist? Is love addictogenic? Objectives: Evaluate the notion of love addiction and its prevalence, assess the severity of addiction and dependence on the “loved” person and finally determine if this entity really exists? Material and methods: descriptive study including 507 people who were able to answer our online survey (Google forms) and patients consulting or hospitalized in the addictology department at Arrazi Hospital in Salé Morroco, this survey was inspired by the diagnostic criteria of substance use disorders of the DSM 5, and the statistical analysis will be done through the same tool. Results: Female gender was the most to participate (79.9%) as well as young age between 21 and 40 years (80.5%), all with a university school level. 80.5% had no psychiatric history and 80.9% had no history of addictive behaviors. The questions that were asked to the participants correspond to the DSM 5 criteria of substance use disorders applied in the context of love addiction, and they were asked to answer each of them with yes or no: The 2 criteria out of 11 essential to make the diagnosis of an addictive behaviour were found in: 70% of the participants! Of which 44.4% had 6 or more criteria and therefore the intensity was severe. Conclusion: love addiction is a disorder that can cause suffering as intense as substance use, therefore, it needs to be treated with as much interest as drug use.

Authors: Kennedy Charles , Theophilus Akinbuluma Ayodeji
Published: March 2023

The study investigated the use of cement and lime as composite mixture with Costus dewevrei De Wild. & T. Durand as for soil stabilization aimed at improving the properties of expansive soils used for road pavement. The maximum dry density (MDD), optimum moisture content (OMC), consistency limits, California bearing ratio (CBR) and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of the soil were subjected test to ascertain the performances of the cement and lime with bagasse composite. The results showed that the composite materials improved the soil properties, but the maximum dry density (MDD), optimum moisture content (OMC), liquid limit (LL), plasticity index (PI), California bearing ratio (CBR) and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of the expansive soil stabilized with cement and bagasse ash composite were greater than the soil samples stabilized with lime and bagasse ash composite. Meanwhile, the value of plastic limit (PL) obtained from the soil sample stabilized with lime and bagasse ash was higher than the value recorded in the soil sample stabilized with cement and bagasse ash. The optimum values UCS and CBR were recorded at 8% combined proportion of bagasse ash with cement and lime. Therefore, the improvement recorded in the soil properties proved that the combined effect of bagasse ash obtained from Costus dewevrei De Wild. & T. Durand and cement or lime, is effective and can be applied as stabilization material to reduce shrinkage and swelling of expansive soil that often lead to road pavement failure.

Conclusion: Sexual violence is relatively common in our care unit << One Stop Center >>. They had constituted the majority of cases of gender-based violence. The care was holistic.
A Rare Case of Cutaneous Granular Cell Tumor Misdiagnosed as Sebaceuos Cyst
Authors: Murshid Mohsin Yahya , Ansari Farrukh Alim
Published: March 2023

Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare benign skin tumor. The tumor mostly presents with a symptomatic slowly growing solitary nodule and no overlying skin changes; therefore, it is not always considered in the differential diagnosis. We report a case of cutaneous GCT in the right supra-scapular region in a 43-year-old middle eastern female, who presented with a 2-year history of a slowly growing mass, with a dimension of 3 × 2 cm, initially misdiagnosed as a sebaceous cyst and later diagnosed as a GCT at the histopathological examination, followed by second excision with wide margins. The tumor cells had centrally located nuclei and granular eosinophilic cytoplasm and stained positively for S100 and CD68 antibodies on immunohistochemistry. Even though GCTs are rare, they should be thought of when diagnosing soft tissue tumors under the skin. Malignant changes have been reported in cases after long term follow-up, so surgical removal with wide margins is considered the best line of management.

Importance of Oral Hygiene in Orthodontic Treatment
Authors: Almutairi Rahaf Marshad , Alturaif Dalal Jumah , Alanzi Laila Mohammed
Published: March 2023

Background: Orthodontic treatment involves the use of appliances such as braces or aligners to straighten teeth and improve bite. Maintaining good oral hygiene during treatment is crucial to prevent the development of dental caries and periodontal disease. Methods: A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar for studies published between 2018 and 2022. The search terms used included "orthodontic treatment," "oral hygiene," "dental caries," and "periodontal disease." Inclusion criteria for studies were: (1) written in English, (2) published in peer-reviewed journals, (3) focused on orthodontic treatment and oral hygiene, and (4) included original research. Exclusion criteria were: (1) case reports, (2) reviews or meta-analyses, (3) not focused on orthodontic treatment or oral hygiene. Results: A total of 28 studies were included in the systematic review. The majority of the studies were observational in nature and conducted on adolescent patients. The studies consistently demonstrated that poor oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment is associated with an increased risk of dental caries and periodontal disease. Specifically, a poor oral hygiene status was found to be associated with a higher incidence of white spot lesions, gingivitis, and periodontitis during treatment with fixed appliances. Conclusion: The results of this systematic review demonstrate the importance of oral hygiene in orthodontic treatment. Patients undergoing orthodontic treatment should be educated about the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene to prevent the development of dental caries and periodontal disease. Dentists and orthodontists should closely monitor the oral hygiene status of their patients during treatment and provide appropriate interventions to improve oral hygiene and prevent the development of oral health complications.

Published: March 2023

Collision tumors of the thyroid gland are a rare entity. Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid (PSCCT) is a malignant epithelial tumor, composed entirely of cells with squamous differentiation and accounting for less than 1% of all malignancies of the thyroid gland. PSCCT arises from other thyroid diseases such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, tall cell variant papillary carcinoma, follicular carcinoma, and anaplastic carcinoma1. We describe a patient with the combination of a well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma and follicular carcinoma of the thyroid.

Aim: To evaluate the platelet indices in differentiating reactive and clonal thrombocytosis. Study Design: Observational study Place and Duration of Study: Department of Pathology, Saveetha Medical College, Chennai, and the duration of study is one year. Methods: This is an observational study conducted at our college for a one-year duration. A total of 100 patients with thrombocytosis of platelet count over 4.5 lakhs/mm3 will be included in the study. The study sample consists of cases with thrombocytosis of over 4.5 lakhs. The utility of platelet indices Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) and Platelet Distribution Width (PDW) for the differential diagnosis of thrombocytosis were analysed and assessed. Results: Out of the total 100 cases, 94 were reactive thrombocytosis, and 6 were confirmed to be clonal in origin. Infectious and reactive aetiology was significantly more compared to clonal thrombocytosis. Patients with reactive thrombocytosis showed a lower mean platelet volume and platelet distribution width compared to primary thrombocytosis. In reactive thrombocytosis, MPV ranged from 8.0 - 9.0 fl with mean MPV of 10.6 fl and PDW ranged from 8.4 – 10.1 % with mean PDW of 10.26 %. In clonal thrombocytosis, MPV ranged from 8.2 –1 1.1 fl with mean MPV of 9.5 fl and PDW range was 8.9 – 11.2 % with mean PDW of 10∙1%. Conclusions: The findings of our study favour a reactive cause in thrombocytosis when MPV and PDW are in the lower range and clonal causes had a high MPV and PDW in comparison to reactive causes.
Cutaneous Rhinosporidiosis Masquerading as a Soft Tissue Tumour Diagnosed on FNAC
Authors: Philip Rini Rachel , L Jayalakshmy, P. , S Sankar,
Published: March 2023

Background: Rhinosporidiosis refers to a granulomatous inflammation of mucocutaneous sites caused by Rhinosporidium Seeberi, presenting most frequently as polypoidal lesions in the nose and nasal cavity. Involvement of sites like the conjunctiva, trachea, nasopharynx, skin, and genitourinary tract are rare. Cases of nasal rhinosporidiosis with satellite skin nodules around head and neck region has been reported. Primary cutaneous involvement is however extremely rare [1]. We report the case of a 58 year old male who came with complaints of anterior chest wall swelling since 2 months with sudden increase in size. The patient was sent for FNAC with a clinical diagnosis of a soft tissue tumor. FNAC however revealed sporangia of varying sizes with endospores along with foreign body giant cell reaction. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis. Cutaneous rhinosporidiosis may mimic a soft tissue tumor. FNAC being a minimally invasive and less expensive procedure gave a definitive diagnosis, and also aided to initiate prompt management of the condition.

Published: March 2023

Class F power amplifiers increasingly have widespread use cases in the modern portable mobile communications and higher efficiency operation due to base station. This paper focuses on the design of sub 6 GHz class-F Power Amplifiers (PA) to ensure maximum output power and gain using Gallium nitride– High Electron Mobility Transistor (GaN HEMT). The work also aims to analyze stability and Power Added Efficiency (PAE) using Advanced Design System (ADS) software. Simulations for DC characteristics of the GaN HEMT transistor are performed, stability circles are simulated, and stability factor values have been noted, using ADS software. Stability analysis involves measurements to examine the conditions that may lead to unstable behavior of the PA. The load pull analysis followed by impedance matching is done to transfer maximum power from amplifier stage to load. The input and output network has been designed using transmission lines and incorporated in the final circuit of the PA design. Using the LineCalc tool, the values of electrical parameters are used in the respective MLIN and TLIN circuits, and the respective matching networks are designed at the input side and output side. The amplifier stability factor is 2.276 and the maximum PAE is 65.75%. The maximum output is 39.83 dBm. The layout for the PA network using ADS software has been obtained.

Present investigative study is an endeavor to understand the effect of religious value and performance on the financial investment-related decision-making process within developing countries. This study uses an interpretivism research philosophy along with an indicative research approach for gaining in-depth insight into the present research problem. A total of 6 months are allocated for the effective completion of the entire project. Only secondary qualitative data is used for the development of the entire research project. Only thematic analysis is done on the available data set for understanding the effect of religious performance on the investment-related financial decision-making process within developing countries. The result of the thematic analysis stated that the specific religious values and norms restricted certain purchase behavior which directed the financial growth of the country in an effective manner. On the other hand, the economic decision-making process is highly influenced by the spiritual beliefs of an individual which leads to investment pattern determination. It is also noted that Christians save more household expenditures than their non-christian counterpart. According to the thematic analysis, it is clear that religious performance effectively influences financial investment-related decisions. In the historical period, the occurrence of this matter is higher than the modern time.

The main aim of this study is to assess and compare the quality of audit disclosure between developing and developed countries. Regarding this, relevant methods and procedures have been followed for collecting and evaluating secondary qualitative data associated with the research phenomenon. An interpretivism research philosophy along with an exploratory research design has been used for guiding the research methods and procedures. The results of this study have revealed that the regulatory framework, auditing practices and activities are different in developed and emerging countries. The main factors that influence audit quality are effective optimisation and regulation by the government and business firms. Additionally, business firms are responsible for providing proper details and information associated with their “financial statements” and costing for reflecting their “financial performance” and position in the market. The governments of both developed and emerging economies have adopted effective regulations and legislations for ensuring proper disclosure of “audit reports” and “financial statements”. Due to the differences in these aspects and the practice associated with auditing, including auditing format, pricing and other activities, the quality of “audit disclosure” is also different among developing and developed countries. Apart from this, the maintenance of “audit quality” involves various aspects, such as legislation and government regulations.
