Authors: Gopal Lakshmi , Sudhakar Pradeepa , Kandaswami Dhanabagyam , Manivannan Saranya 
Published: March 2023

Background: Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a widely acceptable fertility treatment modality. GnRH antagonists have been proven effective in restricting the LH surge. The aim of the study was to assess whether the addition of gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist (Cetrorelix) would improve clinical pregnancy rate in women undergoing IUI.
Methods: This prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted at a Sudha fertility center where 730 women with primary or secondary infertility were subjected to controlled ovarian stimulation with tablet letrozole 5mg once daily for 5 days and then human menopausal gonadotrophins 75 IU/150 IU administered intramuscularly for both the groups and for study group alone Cetrorelix (0.25 mg/day, started when the leading follicle was ≥16 mm; GnRH antagonist) was given additionally. A double insemination was performed at 36 hours and 60 hours after hCG was given (5,000 IU, intramuscularly) in both groups. Chi-square and independent t test was done.
Results: Baseline characteristics in both the groups were almost equal without any statistically significant difference. Significant difference (p=0.017) was found on calculating with statistics among both groups on analyzing LH on hCG day. Clinical pregnancy rates (29.3%) were higher among the study group compared with the control group (21.7%).
Conclusions: From the present study results it shows that addition of GnRH antagonists to controlled ovarian stimulation IUI significantly decreases the incidence of premature luteinization and increases the clinical pregnancy rates and live birth rate.

Published: March 2023

Background: Diseases of the thyroid gland is a common clinical presentation with a prevalence rate of 4-7% in the general population. The presence of thyroid swelling can cause concern to both patient and surgeon as for the diagnosis and treatment is concerned. The current study aims to study the histomorphological pattern of various thyroid lesions.
Methods: A prospective cross sectional study was carried out in Bapuji Hospital and Chigateri district hospital, teaching hospitals attached to J.J.M. Medical College Davanagere over a year from August 2020 to June 2022. All patients with clinical evidence of thyroid swelling were selected. Ultrasonography (USG), fine needle aspiration of thyroid swelling (FNAC) and thyroid function test (TFT) was done and histomorphological pattern of each patient was studied.
Results: The reports of FNAC and USG were similar in most of the patients. Accordingly, accuracy is 100%, sensitivity 90%, specificity 0%, positive predictive value 90%, negative predictive value 0%.
Conclusions: As per the study accuracy of FNAC with USG is 100%. USG neck will help to diagnose the solid and cystic lesions. FNAC is a good diagnostic tool in the diagnosis of neoplasm and thyroiditis, Bethesda categorization helps the surgeon to plan for surgery based on the reports and thyroid profile. USG and FNAC are equally sensitive in diagnosing malignancy, but FNAC is more specific (90%). It is a minimally invasive method which can be used to distinguish malignant from benign lesions with a high degree of accuracy (90%).

Urine cytology is an important screening tool for detection of high grade urothelial carcinoma and follow-up of patients with treated disease. Ease of procurement, cost-effectiveness, and lower turnaround time are the major advantages of the system. We aim to determine the frequency of high grade and low grade urothelial carcinoma in urine cytology specimens and to evaluate the accuracy of Paris system. A retrospective study was conducted in the Department of Pathology (Cytology), GMCH from August 2020 to July 2022 where a total of 200 cases were included. Data along with the preserved slides of urine cytology of these cases were collected from the archives and examined for the presence of urothelial carcinoma. The results were calculated in Microsoft word and excel, and p value was calculated by using the Chi- square (χ2) test of significance, P values less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. In our study, a total of 200 cases were analysed, 169 were males and 31 were females, the male to female ratio being 5.5: 1. The most commonly affected age group was 61-70 years, the mean age being 62 years. Of the 200 urine samples examined, 12.5% cases had High Grade Urothelial Carcinoma (HGUC), 13.5% cases had atypical urothelial cells, 9% cases were suspicious for HGUC and 2% cases had Low Grade Urothelial Neoplasm. : The Paris System is a highly sensitive and rapid tool for reporting urine cytology specimens and is particularly useful in diagnosing High Grade Urothelial Carcinoma thereby helping in early management of the patients with neoplastic lesions of the urinary bladder.

Reticulocytes are immature, non-nucleated RBCs that still contain RNA. It provides useful information about the capacity of the bone marrow to synthesize and release red cells in response to anemia and helps to distinguish between decreased RBC production and enhanced peripheral destruction. A prospective study was done between thalassemia and iron deficiency anemia cases. The duration of the study was 1 year where 139 cases were included. In our study, a total of 139 patients are included out of which 94 cases were of Thalassemia and 45 cases of Iron deficiency anemia. Measurement of complete blood count (CBC) with reticulocyte fractions was done in the SYSMEX XN-550 system and for serum ferritin, Architect iSystem was used. This study demonstrates the cut-off value of IRF for detecting Thalassemia trait as 15.85-21.50%, IDA was &#62;21.50% and for Thalassemia major it was &#60; 15.85%. The LFR% optimum cut-off for detecting Thalassemia trait was estimated to be 83.1-84.2%, IDA &#60;83.1%and for Thalassemia major it was &#62; 84.2%. The MFR% optimum cut-off for detecting Thalassemia trait was estimated to be &#60;12.9%, IDA was &#62;13.25% and for Thalassemia major it was 12.9-13.25%. The HFR% optimum cut-off for detecting Thalassemia trait was estimated to be 2.4-5.3%, IDA was &#62;5.3%and for Thalassemia major it was &#60; 2.4%. The use of new hematological parameters and doing further comparative-based studies will help in differentiating various types of anemia and give knowledge of physiopathology of the underlying disease.

Published: March 2023

The rapid global spread of the novel coronavirus SARS CoV-2 has strained the existing healthcare and tested our resources. Many studies have found that the ABO blood group plays an important role in various human diseases, such as cardiovascular, oncological, and some infectious and non-infectious diseases. The present study was conducted to study the association of ABO and Rh blood groups with COVID-19 susceptibility and severity. This study was conducted on 209 COVID-19-confirmed patients admitted for their management. Cases were categorized as mild, moderate and severe as per the protocol. The ABO/Rh blood groups of these patients were determined by the gel card method. A total of 209 COVID positive patients were included in this present study. Most of the patients susceptible to COVID belonged to B positive blood group (33.01%) followed by O positive (32.06%). The severity of COVID-19 infection was most common in patients with O positive blood group (37.4%). COVID-19 infection was more common in males and more prevalent in B and O-positive blood groups.
Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma with unresolving haemorrhagic ascites- A case report
Authors: Khushboo  , Kumar Bikash , Chandra Ramesh , Mishra Vinay 
Published: March 2023

Peritoneal mesothelioma being a rare tumor is difficult to diagnose and start treatment. Pleura is the most common area being affected by mesothelioma, peritoneum being the second common site, and in some cases synchronous pleural and peritoneal mesotheliomas are observed (30–45% of the cases). The presentation of mesothelioma is not up to mark leading to difficulty in diagnosis due to lack of specific symptoms and clinical findings. In addition, in the absence of previous asbestos exposure a delay in the diagnosis is not rare. Here we report a case of malignant peritoneal mesotheliomas. The diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for these rare neoplasms are discussed. A 24 year old male patient was admitted with complaints of pain abdomen (on & off) and abdominal distension since 15 days, with no inhalational exposure to asbestos, causing diagnostic confusion. He had history of unresolving haemorrhagic ascites. No drug allergy was noted. Diagnostic laproscopy was done, shows multiple omental nodules. Omental biopsy along with immunohistochemistry leads to diagnosis of malignant peritoneal mesothelioma. Peritoneal mesotheliomas are infrequent clinical entities. However, patients presenting with prolonged abdominal pain and ascitis should be considered to have atypical pathologies with peritoneal mesotheliomas being one of the differentials.

Algumas considerações sobre a chamada propaganda subliminar
Authors: Penteado J. Roberto Withaker 
Published: March 2023

O autor faz uma revisão das origens da expressão
"propaganda subliminar" e do seu percurso histórico a partir dos eventos de 1957, nos EUA, que deram notoriedade ao assunto. Em seguida, a partir de considerações teóricas sobre as formas pelas quais se processa a comunicação publicitária, procura demonstrar que carecem de fundamento as afirmações de que tais ações possam atingir os seus objetivos fora dos limites de percepção dos receptores.
Palavras-chaves: propaganda, percepção, psicologia, percepção.

ABSTRACT
The author reviews the origins ofthe expression "subliminal
advertising" and its development after the 1957 events - in the USA - which gave the subject its present notoriety. This is followed by theoretical considerations about the process of advertising communication, which aim at demonstrating as baseless the claims that such actions may take place below the human threshold of perception.
