Published: April 2017

Testicular infarction/gangrene is most commonly secondary to testicular torsion. Testicular infarction complicating a strangulated inguinal hernia has been well documented in pediatric literature but found to be rare in adults as it has only been reported in only 2 cases and none of which required orchidectomy for treatment. We report a rare case of strangulated inguinoscrotal hernia with testicular gangrene following a delayed presentation in a 25 year old boy with neglected groin hernia. The patient had orchidectomy in addition to primary bowel resection and anastomosis.

Background: The response of blood pressure to change in body position has been used in epidemiological studies as a measure of cardiovascular reactivity. Studies had shown that the difference between the supine and seated blood pressures is positively associated with subsequent development of systemic hypertension independent of supine blood pressure. Objective of present study is to study the variation in blood pressure among children in the age group of 4-14 years in relation to the change in their posture.Methods:  cross-sectional study was conducted in a rural area near our medical college hospital. A primary and middle school in that area was selected for our study. A total of 500 children in the age group of 4 -14 years were included in our study. Demographic profile was recorded for all children. Height, weight and BMI were measured. Blood pressure measurement was done by using the auscultation method and with appropriate sized blood pressure cuff.Results: The blood pressure shows a gradual increase as the age of the study subjects increases and there was no statistically significant difference in the blood pressure between males and females (p>0.05). Supine posture shows a comparatively higher systolic pressure and a lower diastolic pressure reading than the sitting and standing posture. The mean difference in systolic blood pressure between sitting and supine posture was less than the mean difference between sitting and standing and the mean difference between supine and standing, which was found to be very high and a similar type of result was also shown in the diastolic blood pressure and this mean difference between the postures was found to be statistically significant (p<0.05).Conclusions: Postural changes in systolic and diastolic deserve further study as a potential risk factor for the development of hypertension as this could be easily measured in clinical practice and in epidemiological studies.

Background: In India, Road safety is an issue of national concern. Road accidents create negative impact on the economy, public health and the general welfare of the people. Every year the lives of approximately 1.25 million people are cut short as a result of road traffic accidents. Between 20 and 50 million more people suffer non-fatal injuries, with many incurring a disability as a result of their injury. Reliable road traffic injury surveillance is an important component of evidence based road safety policy making. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted for the period of 3 months in Mysuru city. The present study included all the 5 Traffic Police stations coming under Mysuru city. Before conducting the study, permission to collect all the relevant information is obtained from the in charge of the stations. Retrospective data regarding the traffic rules violations, fatal and non-fatal injuries are obtained in the fixed format prescribed by the government which is maintained uniformly by all the police stations. Data collected was entered in MS office excel sheet and analyzed using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) software version 22.0. Results: From the study we can observe that there is a drastic increase in the total number of traffic crimes in 2015 compared to 2014. Case fatality of road traffic accident showed decreasing trend from the year 2013. It was evident from the study that there was no significant correlation between total number of accidents every year with violation of traffic rules (r = -0.86 p =0.338). Similarly  There was no significant correlation between the number of persons killed every year with violation of rules by riding two wheeler without helmet(r = -0.380 p =0.752). Conclusions: With massive investment in roads and the exponential growth in the number of vehicles it has become necessary to have a system, which integrates all disciplines that influence road safety. In depth evaluation of the road traffic accidents to build infrastructures and to reinforce the regulations specific to local needs is required.

Published: April 2017

Vivemos em uma sociedade secularizada, os mitos dos antigos povos perderam prestigio perante o homem contemporâneo, todos os seus ensinamentos e máximas morais estão desprovidos de sentido na sociedade pós-moderna. O que se pretende apresentar nesta pesquisa de natureza teórica e de cunho bibliográfico é a função do mito presente tanto nas culturas da antiguidade como a sua função presente nas narrativas das superaventuras, que vem assumir o papel das antigas mitologias, carregando de simbologia e sacralidade elementos da cultura contemporânea e discutindo temas sociais e históricos de forma crítica e teórica. Aborda-se nesse trabalho o personagem das histórias em quadrinhos Capitão América, desde sua criação até os elementos históricos e sociais que acabaram sendo introduzidos durante a cronologia de suas histórias, caracterizando-o como o mito da nação estadunidense. O super-herói americano assume como características todos os ideais e máximas da cultura e da ideologia norte-americana, servindo assim como os antigos heróis mitológicos como um exemplo a ser seguido pelo povo.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the correlation between acute heat stress and relevant histopathology and biochemical parameters of kidney function. A total of 80 healthy Arbor Acer (AA) broiler chickens were randomly divided into two groups: CT (Control Temperature; 22±1°C) group and HT (High Temperature; 38±1°C) group. Histopathological images revealed alteration in kidney (renal tubular lumen dilation with tubular necrosis, especially after 10h of heat stress) of broiler chickens in HT group leading to disturbance of acid base balance. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (CREA) as serum markers of renal dysfunction were elevated significantly (p less than 0.05) after 5h, and especially, after 10h of heat stress (p less than 0.01) as compared with CT group. These results indicated that the evaluation of morphological and functional parameters in kidney is required, in order to monitor broiler chickens exposed to heat stress.

The objective of research work remained to study the effect of Selenium and Vit.E on Liver performance and efficiency in Rhode Island Red chicks to convert food into body mass. This research work was conducted to check the effects of selenium and Vitamin E on Liver function test in Rhode Island Red a day old chicks (n=96) which were set into four treatment groups. Group A was control group, Group B was administered with 1ml/10litre, Group C was administered with 1ml/7.5litre and Group D was given 1ml/5litre of Selenium and Vitamin E respectively. In Rhode Island Red chicks the amount of ALAT and ASAT decreased significantly (p less than 0.05) after administration of selenium and vitamin E in all treated groups. Samplings were carried out at regular intervals. The value of alkaline phosphatase decreased significantly (p less than 0.05) on 1st sampling and increased significantly (p>0.05) on 2nd, 3rd and 4th sampling in all treated groups. The amount of Bilirubin decreased significantly (p less than 0.05) in all treated groups except group B and C where a slight increase was observed on 4th and 3rd sampling respectively. There was significant difference (p less than 0.05) in feed conversion ratio (FCR) between control group and treated groups. The research suggested that vitamin E acts as immune enhancer by increasing the resistance against diseases and has also a positive effect on the feed conversion ratio and liver function test of the desi layer birds (Rhode Island Red).

Histological studies were conducted on the palatine tonsil of six male crossbred goats of six months of age. The tonsils were lined by a stratified squamous non-keratinized surface epithelium which continued into the crypts forming the non-reticular epithelium. At some areas in the crypts, the non-reticular epithelium associated with lymphoid follicles showed a great reduction in height with only one to two intact cell layers and were called reticular epithelium or lymphoepithelium. Propria-submucosa of the palatine tonsil was characterized by dense irregular connective, lymphoid, glandular, adipose and muscular tissues. Lymphoid tissue constituted majority of the palatine tonsil and was organized into primary and secondary lymphoid nodules and dense diffuse lymphatic tissue. Average diameter of lymphoid nodules was 684.17±6.88µm while the lymphocyte count in the nodules was 28826.54±236.25. The average number of lymphatic nodules counted per field under low power magnification of microscope was 2.67±0.42 and the internodular distance was 34.67±1.41. Glandular tissue was present in the deeper areas of propria-submucosa. A well developed connective tissue capsule separated the lymphoid and glandular tissues of the palatine tonsil. In the immunohistochemical staining technique strong positive reaction for cytoplasmic IgG bearing B- lymphocytes was noticed within the germinal centre of lymphoid nodules, towards the base of the FAE and some cells even infiltrated the crypt epithelium. In the mantle zone and internodular area, reaction was very mild indicating that T- lymphocytes predominated in these areas. It was concluded that the palatine tonsils were histologically mature as a local defence mechanism against the harmful substances to be encountered from the environment after birth.

Published: April 2017

A trial was conducted to evaluate the requirement of digestible lysine at various protein levels in the diet of WLH layers (BV-300) from 25-44 weeks of age. Layers (528) were fed with diets containing two protein levels i.e. 13.36 and 15.78 % each with 5 % concentration variations of lysine (0.50, 0.55, 0.60, 0.65, and 0.70) and a control with 17 % CP and 0.70 % lysine. Each diet was fed to six replicates of eight birds. Egg production, feed intake, body weight were not influenced either by the concentration of lysine or by level of protein in diet. Increased (P d” 0.05) egg weight and egg mass were observed with increasing lysine in diets. Better feed efficiency was observed with increasing lysine concentration. It can be concluded that WLH layers require approximately 0.65% lysine with 13.36% CP or 0.63% lysine with 15.78% CP (i.e. 598.80 vs 570 mg/h/day) in diet.

Morphological studies were conducted on the skull of a hippopotamus brought to the Veterinary college for postmortem examination. Skull of the hippopotamus was huge and notable for its little brain case and high supra-orbital ridges. The skull had a larger splanchnocranium than the neurocranium. From the dorsal view, the skull had a watch glass appearance because of its narrow middle portion (at the region of maxillae) and wide caudal and rostral portions. Maxilla showed a large Eminenta canina and two infraorbital foramina leading to two separate infraorbital canals. The premaxilla lodged two huge incisors and just above the central incisor, there was a large rough eminence for the elevated nostrils. Three to four large rounded lacrimal bullae were seen on the floor of the bony orbit. Frontal bone presented a strongly convex smooth supra-orbital ridge that formed upper margin of the orbit which projected from the surface of the skull. The median sagittal crest was very high that diverged to accommodate the concave forehead in front. Temporal fossa was very extensive. Caudal surface of the skull showed a concave nuchal surface and the external occipital protuberance was in the form of a crest. The paramastoid process and external auditory process were very short. Bulla tympanica was conical with a pyramidal muscular process. Anatomical peculiarities of the skull and their functional significance are discussed.

Published: April 2017

The study aimed to assess the genetic diversity of 2-decyl-4-quinazolinyl amine exon2 (DQA2 exon2) gene among the Egyptian goat populations from different agro-climatic areas. Data of diseases distribution as well as blood samples were collected. The data collected for diseases distribution showed differences in the types of diseases between the agro-climatic areas. The Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism technique (SSCP) was used to assess the genetic diversity of DQA2 exon2 gene among the goat populations. The results showed that the DQA2 exon2 gene locus displayed 21 alleles with different frequencies in each of goat population. The gene diversity values among the populations ranged from 0.950± 0.022 to 0.887± 0.033. The difference between the most southern population (Aswan) and the remaining populations translate to significant (P less than 0.05) differentiation for only one population pair (Aswan – Baladi, with FST= 0.055; P= 0.001). Scrutiny of allele composition in these two goat populations showed unique alleles in each population (six in Aswan and four in Baladi). The results of the study suggested that the allelic numbers and allelic composition for the DQA2 exon2 gene among the Egyptian goat populations showed diversity in the immune gene due to the different pathogens exposure.

However behind these opportunities, not a few countries in ASEAN respond the open market or free market of ASEAN become a threat. Badan Ekonomi Kreatif (Bekraf) was established as a government effort to overcome ASEAN free market, which creative economy is Indonesia economy focus nowadays. Since was establishes at early 2015, Bekraf has been quite instrumental in moving the creative economy in Indonesia. Headquarter planning becomes important not only to facilitate Bekraf, but also supports the development of creative economy in Indonesia to compete in the free market of ASEAN. But now in the planning and design issues have become more widespread, namely environmental problems. Jakarta as government center, the location of the site is a crowded city, have limited land, little green open space, and a variety of other environmental problems. These conditions make the construction of new buildings in Jakarta becomes irrelevant.  Sustainable Architecture approach is right solution because this approach has the ability to address environmental issues with sustainable resources which aims to improve the quality of the natural and human. The problem in this design is how to present principle of Sustainable Architecture at office and commercial building typology. Planning and design Bekraf Headquarter use connectivity, indigenous, and long life, loose fit methods which are three principle of Sustainable Architecture. Design applications of Sustainable Architecture at Bekraf Headquarter processed through strategy of Sustainable Architecture, those are sustainable land use, sustainable material, sustainable energy, sustainable water, sustainable health and well-being, and sustainable community. The strategy of Sustainable Architecture building design embodies a minimal pavement at the site, the contours of landscape, using modular and renewable materials, rosters design and mass openness to optimize cross ventilation and natural lighting, wastewater treatment pond design, structuring elements of vegetation, accessibility design, building automation systems, as well as the design of corridors into public spaces.
