Application of Computed Tomography (CT) Attenuation Values in Diagnosis of Transudate and Exudate in Patients with Pleural Effusion
Authors: Sharma Keshab , Lamichhane PS , Sharma BK 
Published: March 2019

Background: Pleural effusion is the pathologic accumulation of fluid in the pleural space. The fluid analysis yields important diagnostic information, and in certain cases, fluid analysis alone is enough for diagnosis. Analysis of pleural fluid by thoracentesis with imaging guidance helps to determine the cause of pleural effusion. The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of computed tomography (CT) in characterizing pleural fluid based on attenuation values and CT appearance.
Materials and Methods: This prospective study included 100 patients admitted to Gandaki Medical College and Teaching Hospital, Pokhara, Nepal between January 1, 2017 and February 28, 2018. Patients who were diagnosed with pleural effusion and had a chest CT followed by diagnostic thoracentesis within 48 hours were included in the study. Effusions were classified as exudates or transudates using laboratory biochemistry markers on the basis of Light’s criteria. The mean attenuation values of the pleural effusions were measured in Hounsfield units in all patients using a region of interest with the greatest quantity of fluid. Each CT scan was also reviewed for the presence of additional pleural features.
Results: According to Light’s criteria, 26 of 100 patients with pleural effusions had transudates, and the remaining patients had exudates. The mean attenuation of the exudates (16.5 ±1.7 HU; 95% CI, range, -33.4 – 44 HU) was significantly higher than the mean attenuation of the transudates (11.6 ±0.57 HU; 95% CI, range, 5 - 16 HU), (P = 0.0001). None of the additional CT features accurately differentiated exudates from transudates (P = 0.70). Fluid loculation was found in 35.13% of exudates and in 19.23% of transudates. Pleural thickening was found in 29.7% of exudates and in 15.3% of transudates. Pleural nodule was found in 10.8% of exudates which all were related to the malignancy.
Conclusion: CT attenuation values may be useful in differentiating exudates from transudates. Exudates had significantly higher Hounsfield units in CT scan. Additional signs, such as fluid loculation, pleural thickness, and pleural nodules were more commonly found in patients with exudative effusions and could be considered and may provide further information for the differentiation.

Published: March 2019

Introduction: Annual incidence of femoral head fracture is constantly increasing due to increase in cases of road traffic accidents (RTA). Four to 17% of femoral head fractures are due to posterior dislocations of hip. Outcome of femoral head facture associated with posterior dislocation of hip, the pipkin I and II fracture, is unsatisfactory due to lack of universally accepted protocol for its management and treatment.
Objective: To evaluate the patient outcome using relatively newer approach, the Trochanteric Flip (digastrics) Osteotomy (TFO), for the precise anatomical reduction of femoral head fractures associated with posterior dislocation of hip.
Methods: Between 2013 and 2017, 21 patients with sustained isolated femoral head fracture were admitted at our hospital. We used TFO approach for the management and treatment of femoral head fractures. The patients were followed up for 42 months at different intervals. Clinical outcome were evaluated using Merle d’Aubigne Postel and Thompson-Epstein scale.
Results: Retrospective analysis showed excellent, good, fair and poor results in five (23.8%) patients, 13 (61.9%) patients, two (9.5%) patients and one (4.7%) patient, respectively. Clinical outcomes included sciatic nerve injury (4.7%), moderate arthritis (95.3%), benign non-debilitating heterotrophic ossification (19%), avascular necrosis of femoral head (4.7%) and neuropraxia (4.7%).
Conclusions: Use of trochanteric flip osteotomy gives the favorable outcome for the treatment of this type of fracture. Most importantly, the vascularity of femoral head remains intact which makes TFO a very useful technique for pipkin I and II fracture treatment.

Introduction: Self-rated health reflects respondents’ overall perceptions of their general health status. It is a simple and reliable measure of general health status of the population.
Objective: The objective of the study was to assess prevalence and associated factors of poor self-rated health among adult population in Machhapuchhre Rural Municipality of Kaski District, Nepal.
Methods: A cross-sectional household survey was conducted among adult population at Machhapuchhre Rural Municipality. A structured questionnaire was used for the face to face interview. Household survey was conducted in July 2018. Self-rated health was measured by using a single question such as ‘In general, how would you rate your health?’ Responses were arranged along a five-point Likert-type scale: ‘excellent’, ‘good’, ‘fair’, ‘poor’ and very poor. The outcome variable was dichotomized as ‘good’ (excellent, good or fair) or ‘poor’ (poor or very poor). Chi-square test and multiple logistic regression analysis were performed; and odds ratios with corresponding 95% confidence intervals for poor self-rated health were presented.
Results: Of total respondents, 13.2% respondents reported that they perceived their health as poor. Of the total, 14.3% respondents stated themselves as overweight and 8.8% mentioned they were unhappy. The study found that illiterate respondents, respondents with smoking habit and the individuals with poor psychological conditions were more likely to perceive their health as poor. Illiteracy, current smoking, perceived overweight, unhappiness, suicidal ideation and having depressed feeling were significant factors associated with poor self-rated health in the study.
Conclusion: Education, health behavior and psychosocial health variables has important influences on self-rated health.

Published: March 2019

El patrón en arcoiris ha sido un tema controvertido, dado que en un principio se planteó como un patrón dermatoscópico específico del Sarcoma de Kaposi. Sin embargo, esto ha sido cuestionado por diversos reportes que han evidenciado la presencia de este patrón en otro tipo de lesiones, tales como, otros tumores vaculares, cicatriz hipertrófica, angioqueratoma, dermatitis por estasis, pseudo-Kaposi, melanoma, liquen plano, dermatofibroma hemosiderótico, entre otros. Se ha propuesto que este efecto se genera por la absorción, difracción y difusión de la luz polarizada y su interferencia con diferentes componentes vasculares y fibrosos de la dermis. Presentamos el primer caso con registro fotográfico de dermatofibroma hemosiderótico que se caracteriza por la presencia patrón irisado en la dermatoscopía.
