Background: Gall stone precipitation is multifactorial in nature. Nowadays, gallbladder disease is a frequent problem in developed countries including India, representing a major health problem. The present study was planned to study the epidemiology of gall stone disease in the region of Madhya Pradesh, India.Methods: A retrospective cohort of patients seeking surgical care for their gall stone disease during past one year at Sukhsagar Medical College, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India during formed the study population. Study tools were records of the patients such as information from MRD department and records from histopathological section.Results: Majority (26.6%) of cases was in the age group of 51-60 years followed by 21.6% cases in the age group of 41-50 years. Sex wise 63.3% were females. Most (71.7%) patients presented with the complaints of pain in the region of hypochondrial region followed by nausea in 46.6%. Jaundice was the least common presenting feature shown by 6.6% patients. As per gross morphology, majority of cases (44) had pigmented stones. As per biochemical analysis, majority of cases (33) had mixed type of stones. The gall stones size varied from 0.2 cm to 2.2 cm in diameter. The weight of gall stones ranged from 0.34 gm to 4.9 gm.Conclusions: Cholelithiasis is more common in the age group of 41- 60 years with female predominance. Non-vegetarians are at risk for cholelithiasis compared to vegetarians. Hypochondrial pain is most common manifestation. Chronic cholecystitis was the most common histopathological diagnosis. Mixed type stones were common variety.

Background: Rational use of antibiotic is important as injudicious use can adversely affect the patient, cause emergence of antibiotic resistance and increase the cost of health care. The efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis in preventing surgical site infection in patients undergoing Lichtenstein tension free inguinal hernia repair still remains controversial.Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted in patients undergoing lichtenstein tension free inguinal hernia repair between January 2015 to June 2016, and the results were compared with the control group in whom, conventional antibiotics were given for 7 days . All patients in study group undergoing surgery were given 400 mg parenteral ciprofloxacin 30 min prior to surgery. In the control group, the patients were given 2 days parenteral ciprofloxacin 400 mg twice a day and the next 5 days the same antibiotics were given in oral route, after surgery. Total 100 patients were randomized to 50 each group. The outcome in terms of duration of surgery, surgical site infection, cost and antibiotic side effects were then compared.Results: The duration of the hospital stay, cost and side effects are significantly higher in the control group patients. Antibiotic side effects (P < 0.05) were high for control group. The infection rate was same in both the groups. There was no significant difference in terms of infection rate among two groups.Conclusions: This study concludes that prophylactic single-dose antibiotic is effective in preventing surgical site infection and is cost-effective in patients undergoing lichtenstein tension free mesh repair.

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Vast majority of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) present with unresectable disease. In the last decade results of randomized trials and subsequent meta-analyses established trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) as standard of care in patients with Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) stage B. However, there is clearly a need to investigate additional therapeutic options that would consolidate the initial response to TACE. A recent meta-analyses concluded that addition of radiation to TACE had 10-35% improvement in two-year overall survival, however as results of meta-analyses were based on small studies, the need for conducting a high quality randomized study was highlighted.

Authors: Manoranjitha B. S. , K. M. Shwetha , Pushpanjali K. 
Published: January 2017

Background: Theoretical models analysing patient behaviour are necessary to understand the complex relationships underlying human behaviour. The widely accepted definition of health is according to World Health Organization (WHO) “a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing, not merely an absence of disease or infirmity.” To assess effectiveness of theory and approaches of oral health education in changing the oral health behaviour and improving the oral hygiene status among adults.Methods: PubMed database was searched for published studies in English language. The search dates were limited to 1990 onwards, applied to the inclusion criteria. Primary outcome was the change in oral hygiene behaviour, measured by self-reported and observed measures. Secondary outcomes were changes in plaque score, dental knowledge. Relevant titles and abstracts of studies were screened. Quality assessment was done for the studies included using checklist of items for randomized controlled trail. (CONSORT) These studies were categorised based on the type of theory used, type of intervention and outcome.Results: Out of 48 studies obtained based on the title and abstract, 15 studies were excluded based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. 13 studies fulfilled the inclusion. These studies were categorised based on the type of theory used. Studies based on 1) Operant and Classical conditioning theory 2) Social cognitive theory. 3) Self-efficacy model. 3) Transtheoritical model. 4) Motivational interviewing. 5) Self-regulatory model. 6) Health action process approach. 7) Implementation intention theory.Conclusions: Theory and approach based oral health education is effective in significantly improving the oral hygiene behaviour.

Authors: Parwanto ML Edy , Senjaya Hardy 
Published: January 2017

Background: Body mass index (BMI) determined by genetic and environmental factors. One of the genetic factors that determine the BMI is a genetic polymorphism of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), whereas the intake of nutrients is one of the environmental factors. The objective: investigate to macronutrient intake of mother in childbearing age with BMI <18.5 kg/m2 and has heterozygous variant D327N SHBG genotype (W/v).Methods: Anthropometric measurement, genotyping of D327N SHBG gen exon 8, and three days repeated food recall and record was done for all subjects. BMI in the group I 16 to <17 kg/m2 and group II 17 to <18.5 kg/m2. For all subjects in both groups has heterozygous variant D327N SHBG genotype (W/v).Results: mother in chieldbearing age with BMI <18.5 kg/m2 and has heterozygous variant SHBG genotype (W/v) is undernutrition. Seventy two percent of the total subjects including type I of chronic energy deficiency (CED), and 28% as type II of CED. Protein, fat and carbohydrate intake and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) in the group I was lower than group II (p<0.05), while muscle mass in the group I did not different compare to group II (p>0.097).Conclusions: Mother in childbearing age with BMI <18.5 kg/m2 and has heterozygous variant D327N SHBG genotypes (W/v) shows that the lower of protein, fat and carbohydrate intake then CED status is getting low.

The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity, abundance and abiotic factors influence the diversity and abundance of mud crab (Scylla spp.) In mangrove forests Blok Bedul Alas Purwo National Park. This research method uses descriptive quantitative method. Diversity is calculated by using the formula of Shannon Wiener, mangrove crab abundance is calculated using the formula abundance Kreb whereas the method of analysis using simple linear regression. The data used in this research is data such as the number and type of biotic mud crabs and data abiotic form of measurement of temperature, pH, salinity, substrate type, and the tide. This study shows the results include mangrove crab species diversity index of every observation stations in the mangrove forests Blok Bedul Alas Purwo National Park is H '= 0.315 showing that the level of diversity in every station is low. The abundance of mud crabs in the mangrove forests Blok Bedul Alas Purwo National Park is 0.0011 individuals / m² which showed that the level of abundance at relatively low research station.
