Abstract: Presenile cataract refers to an onset that occurs at any time from early adult life to age 60 years. Risk factors for presenile cataract include family history; refractive error such as high myopia, metabolic disease such as diabetes mellitus. Other possible causes are atopic dermatitis, use of corticosteroids, trauma, intra-ocular inflammation, electrical current injury, outdoor occupation and occupational exposure to heavy metals. A total of 177 Patients who were diagnosed as a case of pre-senile cataract, were included in this analytical study. All patients (Age between 18 to 45 years) with cataract with or without affected visual acuity were included in this study. An assessment of present complaints, detailed clinical histories (present and past) and personal data were obtained.. Ophthalmological check up as external examination of the eyes, visual acuity, torch light examination, slit.........

Abstract: It is important to profile the different types of medico legal cases reported to casualty in order to assess the various medico legal cases arriving to the rural health centre so that the necessary health care facility and the preventive measures can be adopted and to minimise the crime rate in that particular area. The present study attempts to emphasize the pattern of medico-legal cases brought to casualty of Costo-rural hoapital of Murud, Raigad district. The present retrospective study is conducted for a period of one year in 2013 in which all the 424 medico-legal cases were reported to the Casualty. In this study male predominance was noted with most common involved age group was 21 – 30 years. Most of the medico-legal cases registered were due to routine medical examination for fitness, age determination and examination of accused and drunkenness. These results could be useful in interpreting the types and strategic planning can be made accordingly for the benefit of the community.

Abstract: Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is a specialty of dentistry with a scope ranging from the treatment of orofacial congenital anomalies such as cleft lip and palate, through orofacial infections, maxillofacial traumatology, temporomandibular disorders, salivary gland diseases, orofacial pain to neoplasms involving the orofacial region. Being an emerging specialty in Nigeria, it is faced with several challenges. This study was aimed at determining the demographics of the practitioners in Nigeria and to highlight some of the challenges facing the practice. The study design is cross-sectional. Less than 50% of the practitioners had 76-100% of their surgeries done as scheduled. Thirty-five per cent of the surgeons had fifty percent or less of their surgeries performed on schedule. Main reasons reported by.........

Abstract: Background- Vaginal yeast infections, also known as candidiasis, are a common female condition. A healthy vagina has bacteria and some yeast cells,but when the balance of bacteria and yeast changes, the yeast cells can multiply. This causes intense itching, swelling, and irritation. Treating a vaginal yeast infection can relieve symptoms within a few days. In more severe cases, it may take up to two weeks. Vaginal yeast infections aren't considered a sexually transmitted infection (STI). Sexual contact can spread it, but women who aren't sexually active can also get them. Aims and Objectives- To study the prevalence of candidiasis in Gwalior, role of cervicovaginal smear examination in it's diagnosis and spectrum of disease in various age groups. Methodology- This is a retrospective...........

Abstract: Rapid development in science and technology and rapid growth in agriculture and industrial sector has led to increase in the incidence of poisoning, taking away a lot of precious human life. The chemical substances developed to protect the agriculture products from rodents and pests, to save the human beings from starvation, are themselves becoming a threat for the human life. Trends of poisoning had been constantly changing throughout the world with advent of new agents. This study aims to evaluate Incidence and pattern of poisoning in the district of Murshidabad.The study included all the cases of suspected poisoning brought for autopsy during the period september 2012 to august 2017. A total of 1400 cases of suspected poisoning death were analyzed. Male victims (62.50%) outnumbered females (37.50%) and maximum numbers of cases (63.714%) were in the age group 21-40............

Abstract: Leprosy involves peripheral nerves sooner or later in the disease course leading to gross deformities. However, by the time it becomes clinically apparent, the nerve damage is already quite advanced. If the preclinical damage is detected early, it can be prevented to a large extent. Nerve conduction studies (NCS) are very important for the study of peripheral neuropathy. These studies can be helpful in the early diagnosis of neural involvement, and in the follow-up of patients under treatment.

Abstract: Purpose: To determine the most common type of breast pain and presence of malignancy in breast pain patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of the symptoms, clinical examination findings and breast imaging results among 260 breast pain patients. These were patients between 15-45 years who had presented to the General Surgery OPD from March 2017-March 2018. Results: A majority of mastalgia patients were between 25-35 years (58.3%). Cyclical mastalgia was more common in the 25-35 years group (71.8%) with p value<0.00001. Bilateral mastalgia was also more in the 25-35 years group (69.7%) with p value<0.0001. 172 (66.2%) patients demanded imaging due to cancerophobia. In imaging only 15% patients had dense breasts, 67.2% patients with dense breasts had history of unilateral mastalgia while 59.6% of patients with normal breasts had bilateral mastalgia (p<0.01). Conclusion: Cancerophobia is very high among our patients although no malignancy was detectable. Mastalgia is most common in the 25-35 year age group and tends to be bilateral and cyclical .

Abstract: Tin leaf (Ficuscarica folium) is the fig tree plant. The fruit and the leaf of this plant rich of polifenolantioksidant such as flavonoid, can used for to reduce the level of blood sugar. To know the activity on Tin leaf (Ficuscarica folium) toward the reduction of blood sugar to Mice (Musmusculus) This research is experimental, the mice divided into six group. there are Normal group, K group (CMC Na 1%), variation dose 100 mg/kg group, Variation dose 300 mg/kg group, variation dose 600 mg/kg group and positive group (Glibenclamide 0.65 mg/kg). using two way anova analysis method. the result of this research show reduction effect of mice's blood sugar on 100 mg/kg dose (17.3%), 300 mg/kg dose (29.3%), 600 mg/kg dose (35.2%) and the positive group (44.3%). Variation dose 600 mg/kg (35.2%) give the highest blood sugar reduction, which close to positive group (44.3%) compared with the 100 mg/kg dose (17.3%), 300 mg/kg dose (29.3%).

Abstract: Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) of Oral Cavity is a common malignant tumor of themouth that typically affects elderly men and women. It is more aggressive than conventional squamous cell carcinoma affecting other body regions. Our study consisted of 115 OSCC patients which were diagnosedclinically and histopathological. According to histological findings, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is graded into three distinct categories, by Border's grading system. The severity of OSCC by the grading system is according to descending order. The control population consisted of 45 normal, apparently healthy, age and sex matched subjects. The total protein content in saliva of OSCC patients were significantly increases compare to healthy controls. The total protein content values were also estimated and were found to be increased with the severity of the disease The values are statistically significant.

Abstract: Background/Objectives: Optimal level of 25-hydroxy-vitamin D (25OHD) in serum (concentration above 30 ng/ml) is essential for protecting the health of the mother and the developing fetus. Vitamin D plays an important role in maintaining proper bone structure, preventing infections, reducing the risk of premature birth and gestational diabetes. The aim of the study was to verify whether healthy pregnant residents of Dhaka, Bangladesh were low (deficient and insufficient) in vitamin D. Material and methods: The material consisted of 140 serum samples of different trimesters of pregnancy. The concentration of 25OHD was measured using the vitamin D total assay on Snibe Maglumi 1000 CLIA system (Diamond Diagnostics Inc., China). Results: The average serum 25OHD concentrations.............
