Authors: özdemir Abdullah , Çolak Mehmet Salih
Published: January 2019

Background: To investigate how low-dose levobupivacaine affects both surgical comfort and hemodynamics in patients undergoing short urologic procedures using spinal anesthesia.Methods: Our study was conducted prospectively and double-blind. The study group comprised 40 patients aged 18-65 years from the ASA I-III risk group who had undergone short urological interventions, randomly split into two groups. Informed consent and ethics committee approval were received. Using a media approach and placed in the lateral decubitus position, the patients were given spinal anesthesia using 22 G catheter. Group L was given 1.5ml of levobupivacaine (7.5mg) at 0.5% concentration +0.5ml of saline. Group LF was given 1.2ml levobupivacaine (6mg) at 0.5% concentration +25μg fentanyl (0.5ml) +0.3ml saline. Patient data including peripheral oxygen saturation; systolic, diastolic, mean arterial pressure; time to first postoperative need for analgesics, and spinal block characteristics were recorded at 3, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, 120 and 360minutes after spinal anesthesia.Results: No significant differences were observed in the demographic and hemodynamic data between groups. Motor blocks were seen to wear off more in Group LF than in Group L at 120minutes. Group LF required first postoperative analgesics later than Group L; this difference was not significant.Conclusions: Sufficient anesthesia was achieved in both groups via spinal block using local anesthetic or local anesthetic plus opioid for relatively short urological procedures. The latter group recovered faster.

Published: January 2019

Background: Raised intaocular pressure is considered as a major risk factor for developing optic neuropathy. Intraocular pressure (IOP) depends on various systemic and local factors and it has been postulated that IOP increases proportionately with increase in systolic blood pressure and increase in degree of obesity. The aim of this study was to compare the Body Mass Index (BMI) and Intraocular Pressure (IOP) in adult population.Methods: Four hundred ninety nine participants (284 male, 215 female) aged between 20 to 70 years were included in the cross-sectional study. On the basis of BMI subjects were divided into four categories i.e. underweight, normal weight, overweight and obese as per revised body type classification for Indian population recommended by Ministry of Health and Diabetes foundation of India. The mean IOP difference was 14.6±1.8 as compared amongst the four categories.Results: The participants were divided into six categories according to age and the mean IOP of different age groups was calculated. The changes in the mean IOP of males was 15.8±2.5 mm of Hg and the mean IOP of females was 14.7±2.2 mm of Hg. The results of the current study were statistically significant p<0.01.Conclusions: By concluding the current study as well as in the previous published literature, the findings of the current study were statistically significant. IOP was positively correlated with BMI. However, the clinical significance cannot be confirmed by the minor deviation in the IOP as well as BMI of the participants.

Authors: Madavi Tejas , Bhole Pragati , Holay M. P.
Published: January 2019

Background: High levels of mean platelet volume (MPV), as an indicator of larger, more reactive platelets resulting from an increased platelet turnover, may represent a risk factor for overall vascular mortality and other cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction (MI). The present study was undertaken to see the predictive value of MPV in accessing the clinical outcomes in acute myocardial infarction, (AMI).Methods: Total consecutive 114 cases of AMI admitted to intensive care unit were enrolled in the study and were compared with the equal number of age and gender-matched controls. The clinical evaluation of cases was done at admission and on day 7 in terms of a) Cardiogenic shock, b) Arrhythmia and c) Effect of thrombolysis. Patients were classified according to tertile of baseline MPV.Results: The mean age of cases was 55.56±12.19 years. Males (66.67%) were outnumbering females (33.33%) in cases and controls showing male to female ratio of 2:1. Mean MPV was 10.2±1.27fl in cases and 7.26±0.79fl in controls which was statistically significant. Correlation of MPV with cardiogenic shock, arrhythmia and mortality was significant. Correlation of MPV with risk factor shows that diabetes was the only risk factor significant in AMI. Multiple logistic regression of risk factors with mortality in AMI shows that high MPV and obesity was found to be independently associated with mortality in AMI.Conclusions: Mean platelet volume is simple, easily available and cheap method. Serial estimation of MPV is a predictor of adverse clinical outcome in AMI so treating doctor can be more vigilant.

Authors: Aggarwal Meenakshi , Vohra Hitant , Singh Poonam
Published: January 2019

Background: Acute Appendicitis is one of the most common acute abdominal conditions. Advances in modern radiographic imaging have improved diagnostic accuracy, however the diagnosis of appendicitis remains essentially an enigmatic challenege. Though much work has been done on morphometry but there is less work done on variation of histomorphometric features of appendix. Hence the study was carried out by keeping the following objectives in mind. Aim was to study the general histomorphology and measure the histomorphometric parameters of human vermiform appendix. And also, to study diagnostic significance of histomorphology and histomorphometric parameters in causing appendicitis.Methods: The study was conducted in the Department of Anatomy. Specimens of appendix were obtained from embalmed cadavers. Serial sections were taken at different levels and slides were prepared. The slides were then examined using Nikon Trinocular Research microscope under magnification power of 40x for various parameters, after staining with H&E.Results: The mean luminal diameter varied from 1.32±0.65mm at base to 1.22±0.72mm from base. Diffuse lymphatic tissue was seen in both mucosa and sub-mucosa.Conclusions: Definitely there is a relationship between lymphoid follicle diameter and mucosal-serosal thickness on one hand and that between the luminal diameter and lymphoid follicle diameter on the other hand. Since our study was restricted to geriatric age group so studies need to be done in different age groups to highlight any further relationship.

Authors: Anchinmane Vyankatesh T. , Sankhe Shilpa V.
Published: January 2019

Background: There are several methods of platelet count used in hematology laboratory. These methods are manual counting, automated hematology analyzer counting, platelet count estimation by peripheral blood smear (PBS) method etc. Many diseases such as dengue, malaria, pregnancy induced hypertension etc. may leads to severe thrombocytopenia. Timely and precise diagnosis of platelet count plays very crucial role in critical care management of thrombocytopenia cases. The present study was undertaken to estimate platelet counts by PBS method and correlate them with results from automated hematology analyzer method.Methods: Study included one hundred randomly collected blood samples in EDTA anticoagulant vacutainer tubes. Each blood sample was processed for platelet count estimation with automated hematology analyzer and Leishman’s stained PBS examination. The statistical analysis was done by using Pearson's correlation test to access the agreement between both the methods.Results: The Pearson's correlation test showed significant positive correlation for platelet count estimation between both the methods. (r =0.9789).Conclusions: Platelet count estimation by PBS method is reliable and statistically significant when compared to hematology analyzer method. PBS platelet estimation method can be taken as early and rapid procedure for platelet assessment in critical severe thrombocytopenia cases. This method is simple, cheaper and can be done in rural hospital setup where automation is not available.

Authors: Prudhvi G. S. Sai Ram , Shyam N. S. S. Naga , Acharya Anand
Published: January 2019

Background: The synergistic action of local anesthetics and morphine is well known, morphine probably more superior for postoperative analgesia, when compared to other opioids. Preservative-free morphine is now available in India making intrathecal administration possible. The present randomized double blind study was designed to evaluate the effect of adding preservative free morphine to hyperbaric bupivacaine given intrathecally for abdominal hysterectomy.

Methods: Following approval by the institutional review board and institutional research grant committee, eighty patients presenting for elective abdominal hysterectomy were included in this randomized, double blind study. All drugs used for spinal anesthesia were autoclaved as per the departmental protocol. 3.5 ml of hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5% [heavy] was given in both groups along with preservative free morphine according to study group.

Results: 27.5% (11/40) patients in group A, 17.5% (7/40) patients in group B received one dose of rescue analgesia (ketorolac 10 mg),during the 24 hours for pain relief  while 29 patients is group A (72.5%) and 82.5% (33/40) patients in group B received 2 doses of rescue analgesia. 10% patients in Group A (4/40) and 10% patients in Group B (4/40) had a sedation score of 1 (drowsy and arousable).

Conclusions: The mean duration of analgesia in patients who received 250 μgms of intrathecal morphine was 18.725±1.38 hours while in patients who received 150 μgms it is 16.075±1.23 hours. We conclude that 250 µgms of preservative-free intrathecal morphine provides longer duration of analgesia when compared to 150 µgms morphine, with hardly any additional adverse effects.

Background: Diagnosis of geriatric dermatoses is a challenging job for the Physician due to the involvement of many intrinsic and extrinsic ageing factors. The present study was done with the aim to determine the clinical profile and pattern of dermatological manifestations in elderly people aged 60 and above and to analyze the correlation of various geriatric dermatoses with systemic diseases.

Methods: This was a prospective study done on 200 elderly individuals aged 60 years and above attending the outpatient clinic of Department of Dermatology, RGGGH and the outpatient clinic of Department of Geriatrics, RGGGH during the study period from October 2015 to September 2016. Detailed history of cutaneous complaints, present and past medical complaints were taken. A complete general, physical, systemic and dermatological examination was done in all patients and the findings were noted and analysed.

Results: Male preponderance was observed (M:F-1.8:1). Maximum number of patients (n=166) belonged to the age group of 60-69 years. Wrinkling of the skin is the commonest physiological geriatric dermatoses. Among the pathological changes, infections and infestations were observed in 27.5% of the study population. Fungal infection was the commonest among them (20%) followed by bacterial (18%) and viral (12%). Diabetes Mellitus was the commonest associated systemic ailment and was observed in about 31.5% of the study population.

Conclusions: Geriatric dermatoses occur in the elders due to extrinsic and intrinsic ageing factors. Crinkles were the commonest physiological geriatric dermatoses and benign tumours were the commonest pathological ones. Educating the elders about proper skin care along with the early diagnosis and treatment of their cutaneous ailments would help them to lead a productive and healthy life.

Authors: Kumar Ajay , Deshmukh Kalyani , Deora Mahendra Singh
Published: January 2019

Background: The dropout of outpatients on antifungal therapy for recalcitrant tinea incognito is attributable to the flare on withdrawal of topical corticosteroids and the virulence of pathogens. The objective of the study was to evaluate the role of topical tacrolimus in adherence to antifungal therapy in recalcitrant tinea incognito.

Methods: 28 cases of topical corticosteroid induced tinea incognito of more than 6 months duration were enrolled and topical and systemic antifungal therapy instituted for 8 weeks. Topical tacrolimus was also instituted in the test cohort. The end point for resolution was the absence of raised margins, erythema, induration and scaling.

Results: 17 patients were male while 11 were female and their age ranged from 16-45 years (mean 26.5). Two patients were from upper-middle; 5 from lower-middle and 21 from upper-lower socioeconomic class. Their occupations included shop assistants, security guards, drivers and labourers and the duration of illness ranged from 7-36 months. Topical corticosteroids were obtained on prescription by 5 and over the counter by 23 patients. Out of the test cohort of 14, all lesions had resolved in 10 patients who had adhered to therapy and were reviewed at the end of 8 and 10 weeks. While 5 reported burning on application of tacrolimus 1 developed folliculitis. Out of the control cohort of 14, though 5 had adhered to therapy all lesions had resolved only in 3 patients at the end of 8 and 10 weeks.

Conclusions: Topical tacrolimus facilitates adherence to antifungal therapy in recalcitrant tinea incognito.
Receptory błonowe wiążące cząsteczki typu MAMP/PAMP i DAMP aktywujące pierwszą linię obrony lokalnej układu odpornościowego roślin
Authors: Hetmann Anna , Kowalczyk Stanisław
Published: January 2019

Plants have evolved a multilevel immune system to protect them against infection by a diverse range of pathogens. The first line of plant defense consists of the integral plasma membrane receptors, known as pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), which recognize MAMP/PAMP or DAMP molecules. PRRs activate downstream signaling  cascades that culminate in generation of the innate immune response, called PAMP-triggered immunity (PTI). The activation of PTI leads to the induction of basal defense responses, which include influx of Ca2+ in the cytosol, production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide, activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades, callose deposition, stomatal closure, phytoalexins biosynthesis, defence hormone biosynthesis and transcriptional induction of a large suite of defence-related genes.

Choroby genetyczne i immunologiczne mimo wielu podejmowanych prób leczenia ciągle stanowią duże wyzwanie dla współczesnej medycyny. Obecne formy terapii tychchorób obejmują farmakologiczne łagodzenie ich objawów, rehabilitację czy pomoc psychologiczną, które choć bardzo ważne, nie są niestety wystarczające. Dlatego poszukiwanie nowych terapeutyków, które mogłyby z powodzeniem usuwać główne przyczyny tych chorób, ma ogromne znaczenie dla społeczeństwa. Związki pochodzenia naturalnego wykazują bardzo wiele aktywności biologicznych, dzięki którym są one kandydatami na leki w takich chorobach. Jednym z nich jest genisteina należąca do grupy flawonoidów. Dzięki szeregowi procesów na które wpływa, genisteina znalazła się w centrum zainteresowania naukowców pracujących nad chorobami o różnej etiologii, przebiegu i sposobie dziedziczenia. Wykorzystana została już w eksperymentalnej terapii chorób genetycznych (choroby Huntingtona, stwardnienia zanikowego bocznego, choroby Parkinsona, mukowiscydozy) lub autoimmunizacyjnych i alergicznych. W trakcie przebiegu są próby kliniczne z zastosowaniem genisteinyw chorobie Alzheimera oraz mukopolisacharydozy typu III (w tym drugim przypadku odbywa się próba kliniczna trzeciej fazy). Niezwykle interesującym faktem jest wykorzystanie bardzo zróżnicowanych właściwości genisteiny w próbach leczenia każdej z tych chorób. W niniejszej pracy zebrane zostały informacje o dokładnych molekularnych mechanizmach działania genisteiny w aspekcie terapii wymienionych wyżej chorób genetycznych oraz immunologicznych wraz z określeniem terapeutycznego potencjału każdej z aktywności opisywanego flawonoidu, efektywności jego działania oraz potencjalnego wdrożenia leczenia w przyszłości.

Choroby rzadkie o podłożu epigenetycznym są wynikiem zaburzeń czynników/procesów odpowiedzialnych za epigenetyczne modyfikacje chromatyny oraz regulacjępoziomu mikroRNA. Ich przyczyną są najczęściej mutacje punktowe lub mutacje chromosomalne, np. delecje, zachodzące de novo we wczesnym okresie embrionalnym. Stanowią one heterogenną grupę chorób wieloukładowych dotykających zwłaszcza układ nerwowy i wywołujących niesprawność intelektualną różnego stopnia. Badania na modelach zwierzęcych pozwalają przede wszystkim wniknąć w molekularny mechanizm obserwowanych zaburzeń i przyczynowo powiązać pierwotną zmianę, która zaszła w genomie, z objawami choroby, ale także dostarczają nieocenionych danych pozwalających planować skuteczne terapie. Chorzy powinni być objęci wszechstronną opieką lekarską i wspomagani różnymi formami terapii, a także mieć dostęp do najnowszych metod leczenia. W niniejszej pracy opisano charakterystyczne symptomy, molekularne podłoże i aktualny stan wiedzy na temat wybranych chorób o podłożu epigen etycznym.

Idea about integration and interconnection of science and the Qur'an is not a new phenomenon in the treasury of Islamic sciences epistemology, because the grand theme of the Qur'an has a transformative and responsive function in answering the dynamics of today's nature problem which requires solving by a saintific-religious approach. In a more specific context to teach science to elementary school students (MI), many urgency benefits for the formation of religious and scientific character of children. Learning science that is designed by integrating and interconnecting science and the Qur'an can be a vehicle laying the groundwork to provide an indept understanding of the connection of the existence of this universe with the Being Substance of the Creator of the universe. When this provision is deeply rooted and forms a belief, and continues until the adult child, the character always "thirsty" towards the science will be transformed into his personality. Fiqur students like this is highly expected, because it can realize the ideals of the creation of scholars Muslim who have the breadth of science, skilled experimenting science, and have religious spiritual depth. The quality of human resources such as this can be the next generation of the nation that is able to contribute positively to the development of the nation and state, especially for the Indonesian nation that philosophizes Pancasila and the Constitution with the main principle on belief in God Almighty

Meanwhile, the national labor law and government regulations regulate foreign workers including only professional workers. In fact, foreign workers working in Indonesia are not only professional workers but also unskilled laborers. This is due to the enactment of changes to the regulation of the use of foreign labor which frees and tightens foreign workers who work in Indonesia.

Ratification of international agreements through the Perppu (the government regulation in lieu of law) is very possible because its legitimacy is equivalent to the law but it should be the last priority.
