Abstract: Effects of neurological affliction of joints were first described by Charcot in 1868 [1]. Diabetes mellitus is currently the most common cause of neuroarthropathy [2]. Abnormal nociception and proprioception lead to progressive destruction of the joint. Management of Charcot's arthropathy by definitive surgical treatment remains a challenge despite technical advances in treatment modalities. In the diabetic population, ankle neuroarthropathy constitutes 3% to 10% of all cases. This leads to significant instability, fracture and collapse of ankle mortise and carries a high risk of amputation of the lower limb [3–7]............

Abstract: Congenital anomalies areimportant causes of infant and childhood deaths,chronic illness and disability. They are characterized by metabolic , structural ,functional and behavioural disorders present at the time of birth .The etiological factors include chromosomal abnormality and mutation of various genes ,which gives rise to structural and metabolic defects .Thanatophoric dysplasia is a lethal skeletal muscle abnormality incompatible with life due to severe pulmonary hypoplasia.

Abstract: Background And Objective: Cold chest pack is used as the first line of treatment in the management of cardiovascular and respiratory lifestyle disorders. Though cold chest pack is used for both rejuvenation as well as therapy its physiological effect is less understood. Hence this study aims to evaluate the physiological effect of cold chest pack on HRV. Materials And Methodology: 60 male and female healthy volunteers of mean age 22.2 were recruited for the study. Subjects were randomly allocated into two groups, group1cold chest pack for 30 min, group 2 sham chest pack for 30min. Assessments will be done 5min before and 5 min immediately after the intervention............

Abstract: Background: Cognition declines with age is a known fact. Some studies suggest a positive correlation between the declinations of cognition with Diabetes. Studies on dementia have contributed diabetes as one of the possible causative factor for its early occurrence. During the management of diabetes, examination of cognitive functions are overlooked as a routine practice. This study attempts to examine the cognitive functions in established diabetics who are on treatment and correlate the same with duration of diabetes................

Abstract: On the basis of my experience of more than twenty years surgical practice, I have found that a large number of patients suffer from persisting right lower abdominal pain after appendectomy. This perplexing situation created a lot of social and financial problems, particularly in a developing country like ours. This ultimately leads to a human tragedy and insult to medical science. I planned a research work to study this problem. Based on this work, I am of the opinion that it is largely a mismanagement on the part of surgeons which is the cause of this human suffering..............

Materials and methods: 90 composite resin discs were prepared and thermocycled, then they have been randomly divided into six groups, metallic orthodontic brackets were bonded to these composite discs using three bonding agents: Transbond XT primer, plastic conditioner and Assure Plus, each material was used with and without sandblasting with aluminum oxide particles. After thermocycling the samples again, Shear bond strength testing was done for all six groups using universal testing machine...........

Abstract: Intestinal duplications are disorders which have varying presentations .These occur with a prevalence of 1:10000 births. There is usually no sex predilection. Most of the patients present during infancy or early childhood but few may escape this period and present in adulthood with obstruction or perforation.[1] They may be unexpectedly encountered during emergency surgery. We hereby present a case of ileal duplication who presented with a history of acute intestinal obstruction in whom despite various clinical methods and radiological investigations the diagnosis was made only at the time of surgery.
