Background and Aim: Coronary Heart Disease (CAD) is one of the most important causes of mortality. Exercise activities after coronary artery bypass surgery increase the density of myocardial capillaries called angiogenesis and improve cardiovascular function. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of aerobic-resistance training on plasma basic fibroblast grown factor levels in post-coronary artery bypass grafting patients. Methods & Materials: The sample consisted of 30 men aged 45-60 years who underwent bypass surgery. They were randomly divided into experimental (n=15) and control (n=15) groups. The experimental group performed aerobic resistance training for eight weeks (3 sessions per week) and the control group did not. Blood samples were taken 24 hours before the start of the first training session and 48 hours after the last training session while all subjects were fasting. In vitro ELISA method was used to measure BFGF. Independent and paired t-test and Shapiro-Wilk test were used to analyze the data at the significant level of 0.05 in SPSS v. 21. Ethical Considerations: This study was registered (Ethics Code: IR.IAU.NEYSHABUR.REC.1398.01) in the Ethics Committee of Islamic Azad University, Neishabour Branch, and with Clinical Trial Code: IRCTID:IRCT20191228045919N1. Results: Eight weeks of aerobic-resistance training significantly increased bFGF levels in the exercise group compared to the control group (P=0.002). Also, pre and post changes in the experimental group showed a significant increase in plasma bFGF levels (P=0.002), which was not significant in the control group (P=0.758). Conclusion: According to the results, it may be concluded that combined (aerobic resistance) exercise may increase angiogenesis and capillary density in post-CABG patients by increasing plasma bFGF levels

Il cinghiale Marsus in terra della Pannonia
Authors: Lázár István Dávid
Published: November 2020

Appena nominato, il nuovo vescovo della diocesi di Győr, György
Draskovich, aveva convocato il sinodo per l’estate dell’anno 1579,
nella città di Szombathely. Nel primo giorno del sinodo, su invito del
nuovo vescovo, il gesuita croato Marcus Pitačić pronunciò un discorso
che trattava dei criteri per divenire prete, della morale che la comunità
esigeva da parte del clero e dell’istituzione del celibato, attaccando e
confutando le relative dottrine dei protestanti. La reazione al discorso
di Pitačić da parte dei protestanti non arrivò subito ma si fece aspettare
per un decennio e mezzo. Nel 1585 uscì il libro di Péter Beregszászi,
Apologia pro ecclesiis reformatis, actis impiis Synodi Sabariensis opposita,
che contiene sia l’Oratio di Pitačić sia la risposta di Beregszászi, in cui
egli smentisce punto per punto le asserzioni del gesuita. Il fatto che,
due anni dopo, venne pubblicato a Basel il volume De controversiis religionis
hoc seculo motis adversaria quaedam scripta, in quibus utriusque
partis dissidentium argumenta, ad Scripturae divinae canonem explorantur
et Iesuitis potissimum respondetur, mostra l’importanza dei due testi
dell’Apologia che, assieme ad alcuni libelli apparsi negli anni ’80, viene
interamente riproposta nel detto volume.
A seguito della breve presentazione riassuntiva della vita di Pitačić,
l’articolo offre un quadro sintetico della sua controversia con
Beregszászi, ricca di argomentazioni e di mezzi retorico-linguistici
che servivano al predicatore protestante per rendere ridicoli i gesuiti e
contestare l’autenticità delle parole del suo avversario.
Mapping the Early Modern World
Authors: Rott Dariusz
Published: November 2020

Around 1490 Cracow saw the development of humanist interests
in geography, as well as in the works of Claudius Ptolemaeus (circa
100-147) and other ancient geographers. The stay of the renown
German humanist, Conradus Celtes, in Cracow (1446-1495) most
likely contributed to this shift. Laurentius Corvinus (circa 1465-
1527), Silesian humanist and Neo-Latin poet, who between 1484-
1494 studied and then lectured in Cracow as docens extraneus non de
facultate (his lectures were attended by, for example, young Nicolaus
Copernicus), belonged to Celtes’ circle. As a result of his lectures
in Cracow, Corvinus wrote the textbook entitled Cosmographia
dans nanuductionem in tabulas Ptolemai [...], which was then published
in Basel, in 1496. This paper presents the main facts concerning
Corvinus’ life and discusses the content of his work. It also presents
the circles of contemporary Renaissance humanists in Cracow, in
particular scholars of geography and astronomy. This work played
an important role in developing geographical knowledge among the
humanists of Cracow. It also influenced humanist circles in Basel,
Nuremberg and Tubingen. Today, Corvinus’ Cosmographia is a rather
forgotten work, not often analyzed by researchers of the history of
Polish geography and historians of older literature.

Marcadores de células-tronco cancerígenas associados ao desenvolvimento e fenótipo agressivo no câncer de pâncreas
Authors: Rodrigues Camila Juliano Salvador , Silveira Elita Ferreira da , Vargas Rafael da Silveira , Giacomo Giordano Gatti de , Bianchin Marino Muxfeldt
Published: November 2020

Contexto: As células-tronco cancerígenas, também conhecidas como células iniciantes do tumor, são sugeridas como responsáveis pela resistência a medicamentos e desenvolvimento do câncer devido, em parte, à sua capacidade de se auto-renovar e se diferenciar em linhagens heterogêneas das células cancerosas. Objetivo: Este estudo foi projetado para investigar o papel das células-tronco cancerígenas no câncer de pâncreas. Métodos: Uma análise clínicapatológica retrospectiva foi realizada em 112 pacientes diagnosticados com adenocarcinoma ductal pancreático entre 2005 e 2010, e a imuno-histoquímica foi realizada com anticorpos contra CD133, CD24 e OCT4. A coloração nuclear, citoplasmática ou membrana positiva para cada anticorpo foi classificada em intensidade de coloração, sendo classificada em grupos de coloração baixo/moderado ou forte. Os resultados foram analisados em relação aos parâmetros clínico-ológicos de cada paciente. Resultados: Houve uma relação estabelecida entre a coloração dos marcadores com algumas variáveis associadas ao pior prognóstico, sendo os três marcadores presentes na maioria das células tumorais e associados à progressão do tumor. Supomos que as células-tronco cancerígenas estão presentes desde o início do início do tumor e estão intrinsecamente relacionadas ao desenvolvimento do tumor. Embora a presença de células-tronco tenha sido associada à biologia molecular de vários tumores, sua expressão no câncer de pâncreas ainda não foi relatada clinicamente. Conclusão: A presença de células-tronco e seu papel na tumorigênese do câncer de pâncreas podem ser considerados como fatores prognósticos valiosos, embora o mecanismo envolvido precise de uma investigação mais aprofundada. O aumento de insights sobre o papel das células-tronco do câncer e da carcinogênese pode, em última análise, gerar novas ideias para abordagens diagnósticas e terapêuticas baseadas molecularmente.
Management of Aplastic Anemia in Pregnancy: A Case Report
Authors: Djusad Suskhan , Yoarva Malano
Published: November 2020

Aplastic anemia was first recognized by Ehrlich in 1888, although the pathogenesis of aplastic anemia has remained elusive. Aplastic anemia is a subtype of anemia characterized by pancytopenia and a hypocellular bone marrow which are the risk factor can be due to chemicals, drugs, infections, irradiation, leukemia, and inherited disorders. There is universal agreement that pregnancy complicated by aplastic anemia is a serious condition. The risk to the mother is mainly in the form of hemorrhage meanwhile the fetus may suffer from growth restriction and even intrauterine death. Most of the fetal complications are due to maternal anemia. We here present one cases of pregnancy complicated by aplastic anemia, which were seen within 3 months at our hospital. This high incidence is because the hospital is a top national care referral unit with good hematology and blood bank support.

Anemia aplastik pertama kali dikenali oleh Ehrlich pada tahun 1888, walaupun patogenesis anemia aplastik masih sulit dipahami. Anemia aplastik adalah subtipe anemia yang ditandai dengan pansitopenia dan hiposeluler sumsum tulang yang merupakan faktor risiko yang dapat disebabkan oleh bahan kimia, obat-obatan, infeksi, iradiasi, leukemia, dan kelainan bawaan. Terdapat kesepakatan universal bahwa komplikasi kehamilan berupa anemia aplastik merupakan kondisi serius. Risiko kepada ibu hamil terutama dalam bentuk perdarahan sementara janin dapat mengalami hambatan dalam pertumbuhan dan bahkan kematian dalam kandungan. Sebagian besar komplikasi janin disebabkan oleh anemia pada maternal. Kami di sini menyajikan satu kasus komplikasi kehamilan berupa anemia aplastik, yang ditemukan dalam waktu 3 bulan di rumah sakit kami. Kejadian yang tinggi ini karena rumah sakit adalah unit rujukan perawatan nasional teratas dengan hematologi yang baik dan dukungan bank darah.

Dalla crisi allo sviluppo sostenibile. Il ruolo dei sistemi di misurazione e controllo
Authors: Marchi Luciano
Published: November 2020

This article offers some reflections and insights to interpret the economic impact of the current pandemic crisis, and similar crises that could arise in the future, and the conditions for recreating sustainable development. Firstly, to move from evaluating crisis to generating economic value and sustainability requires a new corporate governance approach for interacting with the social and environmental context, integrating risk management and performance man-agement (Marchi, 2019; Greco, D'Onza, 2020). Sustainability can be reinforced by adopting a new theory of value created for all stakeholders, included suppliers, customers, employees, the territory and the social community, but also for the en-vironment and for the company itself, ensuring adequate remunerations of the re-sources and conditions of lasting economic equilibrium of companies (Giannessi, 1960). To guarantee a long-term economic balance together with social, environmental and corporate sustainability, the role of measurement and control systems is fun-damental. In this regard, the following aspects can be highlighted (Marchi, Paolini, 2020): 1) integrated accounting and budgeting systems must be developed with an in-come perspective; 2) excessive emphasis on specific performance indicators, espe-cially financial ones, must be avoided, in order to pass to a "systemic reading" of the set of indicators at an economic-social level; 3) a circular choice and an ade-quate remuneration of the production factors in the supply network must be guar-anteed in order to increase the value created internally in the network, with the contribution of strategic suppliers who must be partners of the company; 4) finally, a "culture of sustainability" must be implemented in the personnel planning, control and incentive systems (integrating financial indicators with sustainability indicators) and not only in the reporting systems for the outside.
Methodology for determining water losses from irrigation canals
Authors: Makarycheva Elena
Published: November 2020

The aim of the article is to develop a method for calculating water losses from irrigation channels in determining the permeability of rock in the zone of filtration flow on the basis of the law of infiltration A.N. Kostyakov using the results of studies of free filtration from pits and foundation pits in loess loams.

Pressure movement of water in irrigation canals is subject to the laws of two-phase flow, in which – in contrast to the Darcy law for the zone of saturation plays an important role, the volume and its change in time. The filtration rate (VF) increases with increasing rock moisture (θ) along the S-curve, while the pressure gradient (I = dh/dz) decreases.

The dependences of these parameters on the pressure are represented by power functions, and their product CDP = VFI does not change in time and can serve as a characteristic of the filtration flow under the channel. When installing paired piezometers near the water chore line in the channel and determining the graph I(t) by the value of the twophase flow constant CDP, it is possible to calculate the filtration rate at a number of times and the water losses during unsteady filtration.

Water losses from the channels at equilibrium humidity increases with increasing head according to the formula A.N. Kostyakova, in which the water permeability of rocks is characterized by a steady filtration rate at a head of 1.0 m, and the gradient is the function of pressure.

The application of the proposed method of calculating losses in the design of irrigation systems will increase the reliability of the justification of the volume of anti-filtration measures and the forecast of the groundwater level.
Determination of qualitative indicators of the work of the wide sprinkling machine
Authors: Slabunov Vladimir , Slabunova Aleksandra , Kupriyanov Andrey
Published: November 2020

The aim of the research is to select the diameters of the nozzles of the deflector nozzles and to determine the quality indicators of the operation of a new wide-grip sprinkler of circular action, developed at the Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution «RosNIIPM». The selection of the diameters of the nozzles of the deflector nozzles was carried out from the conditions of passing three different flows through the DM water pipeline: 15, 30 and 60 l/s. The scheme of their arrangement – rain-forming devices have different flow rates and diameters of nozzles at the same distance between them along the DM water-conducting pipeline. The analysis of the results obtained showed small deviations in the actual flow rate of the deflector nozzles through the water pipeline (cf. deflector nozzles with calculated nozzle diameters. Investigations of irrigation uniformity were carried out, as a result of which the following results were obtained: effective irrigation coefficient – 0.67–0.78; the coefficient of insufficient irrigation is 0.10–0.12, the coefficient of excessive irrigation is 0.12–0.15. At the same time, a decrease in the uniformity of irrigation is associated with an increase in wind speed and thereby an increase in the drift of artificial rain drops, the worst condition for the use of a WDM is a wind speed of more than 5 m/s, and therefore it is recommended to use this DM in the morning and evening, characterized by a more reduced wind load.
Prospects for creating a unified system for storing and processing remote sensing data for monitoring the state of reclaimed lands
Authors: Petrushin Aleksey , Mitrofanov Evgeniy , Mitrofanova Ol'ga
Published: November 2020

In the context of the economic crisis and a difficult epidemiological

situation, one of the key problems is to provide the population with

crop products. The development of this direction is not possible without

the use of new technologies for assessing the state of ameliorated

lands using remote sensing data, which allow monitoring and making

effective management decisions. In this regard, there is a need to

create a unified system for storing heterogeneous information about the

state of land and its processing. In addition, it is necessary, within the framework of the proposed system, to provide storage and processing of experimental data for researchers. The creation of a spatial problemoriented database for convenient storage, systematization and access to heterogeneous data intended for assessing the state of reclaimed lands is considered as the first stage in the implementation of this task.

Development of the principles of ecologically safety water resources support for agrolandscapes
Authors: Shcherbakov Alexey , Zhezmer Valentin
Published: November 2020

The issues of environmental safety that arise during the provision

of water resources for agrolandscapes, including reclaimed lands

that are no longer in circulation, are considered. To maintain the

safety of agrolandscapes, it is necessary to eliminate or minimize the

factors leading to the violation of the ecological balance. If there is

a mismatch between the need for irrigation and drainage facilities for

water resources and the possibility of satisfying them, an adjustment

is made in water consumption, which is reduced to saving irrigation

water. For the longterm operation of HMS, it is necessary to develop

environmental monitoring programs with forecasting and calculating

the likelihood of emergencies. When managing the operation of

the GTS in extreme mode, it is necessary to continuously obtain

information, which is possible only when using automated monitoring

data in combination with a decision support system. Ensuring

sustainable growth in agricultural production is not possible without

expanding the area of irrigated land, including reclaimed land that

has been phased out. The commissioning of the abandoned lands of

the agrolandscape often does not require the creation of new HMS,

however, it assumes, despite the increased loads, ensuring their

effective and environmentally safe functioning. Retired reclaimed

lands should be put into operation only if the irrigation system of the

agrolandscape is efficient and environmentally safe. Such functioning

is ensured through the use of automated process control systems.
A relaxációs és közérzetjavító szolgáltatások az Észak – alföldi régió szállodáinak kínálatában
Authors: Biró Melinda , Pucsok József Márton , Hidvégi Péter , Lenténé Puskás Andrea
Published: November 2020

Az emberek az üdüléseik alatt szeretnének pihenni, kikapcsolódni, ellazulni, feltöltődni, így a szolgáltatásokban is ezt keresik. Az élmény, a kényeztetés, az egészségtudatosság egyre inkább megjelenik az emberek üdülőhely megválasztását befolyásoló tényezőinél. Mivel az egészségre való törekvés, a relaxáció, a közérzetjavítás az üdülések során mint igény jelenik meg, ennek hatása a turisztikai desztinációk megválasztásakor is érvényesül, valamint a szolgáltatások preferencia rendszerében is visszatükröződik. Mivel az Észak-Alföldön az idegenforgalom szerepe fontos tényező, a kutatásunk során ezen szolgáltatásokat vizsgáltuk, a régió 3-5 csillagos szállodában. 50 szállodát (18 három csillagos, 31 négy csillagos, 1 öt csillagos) vizsgáltunk meg kérdőív segítségével, valamint weblapjuk elemzésével a szolgáltatásaik, és a kínálati elemek tekintetében. Eredményeink azt mutatták, hogy a vizsgált szállodák többségében a relaxációs szolgáltatások, az egyéb közérzetjavító, testápolási szolgáltatások, és orvosesztétikai kezelések különböző mértékbe ugyan, de megtalálhatók. Leggyakoribb a masszázs, ami a szállodák többségének kínálatában megjelenik, de a többi szolgáltatástípusból is széles repertoárt kínálnak a vendégek számára.

Introduction: Medical expulsive therapy (MET) is one of the treatment modality for ureteric calculi. Recent studies have reported excellent results with MET for lower ureteral calculi. The aim of study to evaluate the effect of tamsulosin on treatment of lower ureteric calculi.
Materials and Methods: A prospective study was conducted at outpatient department of Urology, Prime Medical College Hospital, Rangpur, Bangladesh during February 2018 to February 2019. A total of 100 patients with lower ureteric calculi included in this study. Cases were selected by inclusion and exclusion criteria and randomly allocated in two groups. Tamsulosin group (50 patients) were given capsule tamsulosin 0.4 mg, at bed time while observation group (50 patients) were given standard therapy without tamsulosin. The patients were prescribed diclofenac (50 mg) on demand for pain relief and were followed-up by X ray and ultrasonography of kidney, ureter and urinary bladder region for 28 days. The stone expulsion rate, expulsion time, and analgesic requirements were also recorded. Data were analyzed and compared by statistical tests.
Results: Tamsulosin group showed a statistically significant advantage in terms of the stone expulsion rate. A stone expulsion rate of 78% (39 out of 50 patients) in tamsulosin group and 54% (27 out of 50 patients) was observed for observation group (p=0.011). In tamsulosin group, mean expulsion time was 7.26 ±3.35 days whereas in observation group mean expulsion time of 8.93 ±3.56 days (p=0.017). Tamsulosin group stone expulsion time was lower as compared to observation group. Overall the number of doses of analgesic (diclofenac) required in tamsulosin group, it was 3.78 ± 2.82 whereas in observation group was observed to be 5.93± 1.76. The variation between number of doses of analgesic required by patients in both groups was found to statistically significant (p=0.001).
Conclusions: The effectiveness of tamsulosin as a medical expulsive therapy in patients with lower ureteric calculi was higher as compared to observation group. Tamsulosin has been found to increase stone expulsion rates, reduces mean days to stone expulsion and decreases number of doses of analgesic requirement.

Authors: Rakib Md Abdur , Islam Md Shahidul , Waheed SM Shameem
Published: November 2020

Neuroendocrine carcinoma or small cell carcinoma (SCC) of the bladder is a rare and aggressive tumor associated with a poor prognosis. It often presents at a later stage than urothelial carcinoma of the bladder, and comprises less than 1% of bladder malignancies. A number of treatment algorithms have been used to treat bladder SCC, including cystectomy, partial cystectomy, radiotherapy, chemoradiotherapy, chemotherapy alone, and neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy. Here we are presenting a case of, small cell variety of neuroendocrine carcinoma of the bladder, and its epidemiology, prognosis, and current treatment algorithms are reviewed.

Published: November 2020

This prospective double blind comparative study was designed to compare the effect of Dutasteride on the perioperative blood loss in Transurethral Resection of Prostate (TURP).Sixty patients with BPH underwent TURP were divided into 2 groups. Patients belong to the group B (Control) and group A (Experimental). Experimental group patients were given Cap. A (dutasteride 0.5 mg) before two weeks of TURP and group B (control) were given Cap. B (placebo). Postoperative comparison between two groups showed that there were no significant difference between the weight of resected prostatic tissue (control =22.41±6.83 gm, and experimental = 25.38±7.22 gm; p=0.107). Postoperative hemoglobin level of both group (Control group = 10.78±0.64 gm/dL and experimental group = 10.83±.51 gm/dL) revealed no significant difference (p=0.774). The mean hemoglobin loss per gram of prostate tissue in both groups (control = 1.81±0.81 gm/gm and experimental = 1.79±0.88 gm/gm) did not show any statistical difference (p=0.938). In this the study it was found that if the BPH patients are subjected with dutasteride 0.5mg before 2 weeks of TURP, bleeding decrease slightly (Control group = 20.35±7.99 ml/gm and Experimental groups = 17.41±7.70 ml/gm). However, these data of bleeding loss did not show any statistical significance.

Published: November 2020

Background: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction leads to progressive dilatation of the renal collecting system, and can result in pain and progressive deterioration of renal function but may be asymptomatic and result in complication such as pyelonephritis,calculus formation and deterioration of renal function may ensue if left untreated.Open pyeloplasty remains the gold standard against which new technique must be compared.we compared laparoscopic and open pyeloplasty in the treatment of pelviureteric junction obstruction. To see the outcome of laparoscopic pyeloplasty versus open A-H pyeloplasty in the management of pelviureteric junction obstruction.
Methods and materials: A prospective quasi experimental study was done from july 2012 to December 2013 in which a total of 30 laparoscopic and 30 open pyeloplasty were done. All laparoscopic pyeloplasties were performed transperitoneally.Standard open A H pyeloplasty,spiral flap or VY plasty was done depending on anatomical consideration. Patients were followed with USG and IVU at three and six months interval.Perioperative parameters including operative time,analgesic use,hospital stay,and complication and success rates were compared.
Results: Mean total operative time in LP group was 115±15 min compared to 75 ±15 in OP group, the postoperative analgesic requirement was sighnificantly less in LP group(mean 84.73±11mg) and OP group required mean of( 274.33±39.42mg).The mean blood loss in LP group was 118.26±110.74ml compared to open group 274.82±118.97ml.The postoperative hospital stay in LP was mean 4 days(2-7days) sighnificantly less than the open group mean of 8 days(7-9days).
Conclusion: Lp has a minimal level of morbidity and short hospital stay compered to open approach.Although laparoscopic pyeloplasty has the disadvantages of longer operetive time and requires sighnificant skill of intracorporal knotting but it is here to stay and represents an emerging standard of care.

Incidence of Incidental Gall Bladder Cancer and Role of Routine Histopathological Examination in Cholecystectomies Specimens for Benign Disease
Authors: Poudel Rajesh , Shah Anita
Published: November 2020

Background: Gallbladder cancer is the most common biliary tract cancer. Incidence rate of gall bladder cancer varies worldwide.  Most of the patient with gall bladder cancer remained asymptomatic until late. Preoperative early diagnosis of carcinoma of gallbladder is rare, occurring in fewer than 20% of patients. Role of routine histopathology for cholecystectomy specimen is debatable. Aim of this study is to find the incidence of incidental gall bladder cancer and determine whether routine histopathology of cholecystectomy specimen is required or not.

Methods: This is a retrospective descriptive study carried out in Universal College of Medical Sciences, Bhairahawha, Nepal. Histopathology reports of all patients who had undergone cholecystectomies from June 2014 to September 2018 were reviewed. Patients’ information regarding inpatient number, age, sex, year of diagnosis, preoperative diagnosis, intraoperative findings, histopathology report and pathological staging were recorded. Data were entered and analyzed using Microsoft Excel version 14.

Results: Total of 418 routine cholecystectomies were performed during this period. Seven cases of incidental gall bladder cancer were diagnosed. None of the patients had preoperative suspicion for malignancy. One patient had intraoperative suspicion of lesion.

Conclusions: Incidence of incidental gallbladder cancer is 1.67%. It is recommended that routine histopathology of cholecystectomy specimen should be sent for early diagnosis and improve survival of patient with gall bladder cancer.

Quantification of Superficial Venous Reflux by Duplex Ultrasound - Role of Peak Reflux Velocity and Reflux Time in the Assessment of Varicose Vein
Authors: Singh Amit Kumar , Karmacharya Robin Man , Vaidya Satish , Thapa Pratima
Published: November 2020

Background: The study compared the peak reflux velocity and reflux time in cases of varicose veins and non-varicose veins with a focus on quantifying the reflux parameters.

Methods: This is a hospital based observational comparative study. The limbs with CEAP Clinical classification of C2 or more were taken as diseased limbs and contra-lateral limbs with no symptoms or disease were taken as control limbs.

Results: Altogether 792 limbs (452 diseased limbs and 340 control limbs) were evaluated with color duplex. Mean Great Saphenous Vein diameter was 5.68 ± 2.07 mm and 4.00 ± 1.34mmin diseased limbs and control limbs respectively (p=0.0001). Mean sapheno-femoral junction diameter was 8.23 ± 2.64 mm and 6.16 ± 1.93 mm in diseased limbs and control limbs respectively (p=0.0001). Mean peak reflux velocity in diseased limbs was significantly higher than control limbs (77.38 cm/sec vs 7.95 cm/sec; p=0.0001).  Similarly mean reflux time was significantly longer in diseased limbs than non-diseased limb (406.58ms and 67.28 ms respectively; p=0.0001). An optimal cut-off point of 27.4 cm/s for peak reflux velocity and 250 ms for the reflux time at Sapheno-Femoral junction had a discriminatory power between the two groups.

Conclusion: The quantification of peak reflux velocity seems to be more consistent than reflux time in determining the superficial venous reflux. An optimal peak reflux velocity cut off point of 27.4 cm/sec has the discriminatory power between diseased and non-diseased limb.
