Title | : | Comparison Of 0.5%Bupivacaine And 0.5% Bupivacaine Plus Buprenorphine in Brachial Plexus Block |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Dr.N.Syamakumar || Dr.K.Nagabhushanam |
Abstract: Opioids are well studied adjuncts although the evidence regarding the analgesic benefit of opioid adjuncts remains equivocal. The effectiveness of 0.5%Bupivacine and 0.5% Bupivacaine plus Buprenorphine into brachial plexus sheath was evaluated. Materials and methods: The study was a comparative study carried out at GGH, Guntur. 60 ASA I and II patients undergoing elective upper limb surgeries, aged between16-70 years were randomly allocated into two groups of 30 each. All patients received 0.5% of Bupivacaine at 2mg/kg bodyweight. In addition, 30 patients in group B received Buprenorphine hydrochloride (2μg/kg) .Using VAS score the analgesia was evaluated every hourly for six hours, every two hours for next twelve hours and then ever y sixth hourly till 48 hours.

Title | : | Morphological Study of Left Sub-Valvular Apparatus in Human Foetal Hearts |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Thounaojam Oken Singh || IrungbamDevenSingh || Thounaojam NaranbabuSingh || Gaining Gangmei || Dipanjana Chakraborty || SanjenbamSonaliDevi |
Abstract: Usually two papillary muscles are described in the left ventricle, anterior (superior) and posterior (inferior); either may be multiple. Many authors mentioned presence of accessory papillary muscles and various patterns of the base and apex of papillary muscle. This study was carried out on 25 formalin-fixed human foetal hearts of gestational age ranging from 14 to 40 weeks in the department of Anatomy, RIMS, Imphal. Left ventricles were cut opened and the number, position, pattern of papillary muscle heads at the base and apex, and distribution of chordae tendineae to mitral valvular cusps were observed and recorded. The number of papillary muscles were found to be highly variable in both anterior as well as posterior group of papillary muscle.

Title | : | Significance of Time-Domain Measurements of Heart Rate Variability in Burning Mouth Syndrome |
Country | : | Japan |
Authors | : | Yukihiro Momota || Hideyuki Takano || Koichi Kani || Fumihiro Matsumoto || Keiko Aota || Tomoko Yamanoi || Chika Kondo || Nao Takase || Yuki Miyamoto || Shigemasa Tomioka || Masayuki Azuma |
Abstract: Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is characterized by oral burning or painful sensations without pathological changes; its real cause is unknown. We previously reported that autonomic lability was probably associated with the pathogenesis of BMS based on the results of frequency analysis of heart rate variability (HRV). HRV is composed of time and frequency domains, although the significance of the time-domain measurements of HRV in BMS has not been discussed. In this study we assessed the significance of the time-domain measurements, particularly in relation to autonomic lability. Twenty-two patients received stellate ganglion near-infrared irradiation (SGR), and the response to SGR was examined by time-domain measurements. No significant difference in the time domain was found between patients in whom SGR was effective and those in whom SGR was ineffective for BMS.

Title | : | Minimal Dissection: No Fixation Technique For Inguinal Hernia Repair |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Dr. Chandra Kant Paliwal || Dr. Dinesh Kumar Jindel || Dr. Kanno Mal Garg |
Abstract: Standard procedure for Inguinal hernia repair remains controversial, despite advances in technique and materials. Conventional implants are typically static (passive) and do not move in concert with the groin's motility. Inguinal hernia repair with mesh fixation on dynamic groin structures are not tension free, and are associated with tissue tearing, bleeding, hematoma, and nerve entrapment–all of which might contribute to post operative complications. The poor quality of tissue ingrowth within static meshes/plugs embodies another crucial issue in prosthetic hernia repair. The regressive tissue leads to shrinkage and reduction of the mesh surface area which is a significant cause of recurrence and discomfort.

Authors | : | Awad-Elkareem Abass || Thuwaiba Yassir || Yasmeen Saeed || Ayat Taha || Azza Basheer || Eslam Mubarak || Fotoon Zonoon || Ghozlan Faroog || Nada Mohammad |
Abstract: SPlatelets play a key role in initiation of atherosclerosis and formation of coronary thrombus in
coronary artery diseases (CAD). Active platelets are large in size and have a higher potential thrombotic
ability, evaluation of their volume indices as indicator of their activity could be useful in prediction and
differentiation of coronary events. This study evaluated the platelets volume indices in a group of Sudanese
patients with CAD and compared with normal populations. Among the total included 103 patients with CAD;
there were 53 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), 50 patients with chronic stable angina. Age and
sex matched; 100 subjects with non-cardiac chest pain were also included as normal controls. K3-EDTA
anticoagulated venous blood of each subject was collected, platelets count and indices were measured using
Sysmex KX-21 analyzer.

Authors | : | Nuha Mohammed Osman || Amar Mohamed Ismail |
Abstract: This study was conducted to assess the effect of hemodialysis (HD) on prolactin and testosterone level and their relations with study variables in chronic kidney disease (CKD) male patients. In a cross-sectional study carried out in 80 males aged range from (22 to 80 years old), timed pre and post-HD samples were collected. Serum prolactin, testosterone, urea and creatinine were measured by using TOSOH® Bioscience full automated immunoassay analyzer AIA-360 and Mindary BS-200. Paired t-test found that mean testosterone, urea and creatinine level obtained after HD significantly lower p-value (0.000, 0.000 and 0.000) respectively, while insignificant difference was observed in mean prolactin concentration p-value 0.408. Interestingly change in prolactin after HD had a significant correlation with testosterone level (r = -0.280, p-value 0.042).

Abstract: Urinary stone is the third most common urological disease. Urinary stones are mineral deposition within the urinary tract. Renal stones are common, being present at some time in one in ten of the population. Bladder stones (calculi) account for around 5% of urinary tract stones and usually occur because of foreign bodies and obstruction or infection. Many literatures are available for the formation of urinary tract stones and revealed different reasons are involved in the formation of these stones.

Abstract: Achondroplasia is the most common cause of congenital dwarfism. It is autosomal dominant disturbance in epiphyseal chondroblastic growth and maturation(1). Patients are of normal intelligence. Usually they have normal motor function. However a few present with mild to moderate motor symptoms. . Not all patients presents with neurological findings and hence MRI is usully not done. As skull base forms by enchondral ossification, its growth can be effected with increasing age, leading to stenosis of the foramen magnum, that can cause compression over medulla/cervical cord.We present a case of 12 month old girl child who presented to the pediatric OPD with chief complains
