Abstract: Introduction: Lumber slipped disc (LSD) attributes to a problem with an intervertebral disc of the lumber spine, whereby a gel-like material (nucleus-pulposus) inside the disc that protrudes through a crack in the outer-wall (annulus-fibrosus) of the disc and compressed a nearby nerve root causes inflammation, pain, numbness or weakness in the leg that lead to abnormal quality of life.The aim of the study is to normalize the LSD with theaberrant levels of Interleukin-10 (IL-10), Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), Creatine kinase-muscle (CK-MM) and AldolaseA (AldoA)along with anomalousanatomical and international acclaimed functional disability parameters and radiological images by topical phytotherapeutic treatment protocol withinsix-week. Methods:Baseline data were collected...........

Abstract: Hypospadias surgery with so many developments in the field is still fraught with the most common complication of fistula formation regardless of type of hypospadias,technique performed and surgeon's expertise.Each refinement aims in decreasing the incidence of formation of urethrocutaneous fistula viz; two stage repair,dartos flap cover,overlapping suture line etc.Parietal layer of tunica vaginalis from testis as a covering over reconstructed neo urethra decreases fistula rate. Unlike dartos layer, tunica vaginalis brings vascular supply from outside source hence helping in better healing of suture line of neo-urethra. Study of effectiveness of tunica vaginalis flap covering in two common procedures performed is presented with significant decrease of urethro-cutaneous fistula.

Abstract: The present study was conducted to assess the feasibility and accuracy of hysteroscopy in evaluation of intrauterine abnormalities in women with abnormal uterine bleeding and to correlate it with histopathological evaluation.50 women in the reproductive, perimenopausal and postmenopausal age group, up to the age of 65 years presenting with AUB were included as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria. All patients underwent a hysteroscopic examination followed by a biopsy and histopathological evaluation. Hysteroscopic findings were noted and compared with histopathological findings.sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy of hysteroscopy was calculated. Results: Maximum age incidence was between 41-..........

Abstract: Aim- Oral Cavity Cancer is the most common among all the head and neck cancer in India. Our study evaluates the incidence & the demographic profile of head and neck cancer cases in a urban cancer centre in Eastern part of India.Methods:-This retrospective study was done in Radiotherapy Department of Veer Surendra Sai Institute of Medical Sciences (VIMSAR), Burla of Sambalpur district, Odisha, India, for a period of three year, from 1st April 2014 to 31st March 2017. Total 368 head and neck cancer cases were reported during this period.Results:-The incidence of Head and Neck cancer was found to be 16.15%. The Male were affected more than the female.The median age of occurrence was 53 years. The most commonly affected age group was 41-60 years (52.45%). Among all the head and neck cancer, Tongue cancer was the most common (28.26%) followed by Buccal Mucosa (19.02%).We found a strong association between the use of tobacco (bhang) and Head & neck..........

Abstract: Agrochemicals are chemicals used in agriculture to maintain the ecosystem.This includes fertllizers, pesticides, insecticides, rodenticides etc. Agrochemicals are known to be associated with acute kidney injury.Of all the agrochemicals, Organophosphorus causing AKI was the most common agrochemical reported in literature.But with increasing use of Paraquat, the number of cases with Paraquat poisoning and thus with AKI are on rise. Of 40 cases of agrochemical poisoning with AKI , most common poisoning was Paraquat (18/40) , Organophosphorus (9/40).Factors associated with mortality were found to be low Oxygen status at admission, and low hemoglobin..

Abstract: Diabetes mellitus is a glooming threat worldwide. It amounted for around 9% of deaths in the year 2012, in Southeast Asia1. India stands second among world countries with whopping estimate of 69.2 million cases out of 415 million cases worldwide2. Chronic hyperglycemia leads to sensory and autonomic neuropathy, peripheral vascular disease, nephropathy and retinopathy. Amongst all the complications of diabetes, the prevalence of diabetic foot infections is most common affecting approximately 15% of the diabetic patients3. This can be attributed to several social and cultural practices such as barefoot walking, inadequate facilities for diabetes care and education, and poor socioeconomic conditions4.several studies have proven that, at molecular level chronic hyperglycemia coupled with excessive up regulation of extracellular matrix degrading gelatinases like MMP 9 could be the root cause of all these complications. Primary pathology here vests with insulin resistance. Hence in this study we evaluated the relationship between serum MMP 9 and insulin resistance in patients with diabetic foot ulcers before and after skin grafting ..

Abstract: Heterotopic pregnancy is the co-existence of intrauterine pregnancy and extrauterinepregnancy.It is a rare and dangerous life-threatening situation that is difficult to diagnose therefore easily missed.The incidence in the general population is estimated to be 1 in 30,000. Risk factors for ectopic pregnancy are pelvic inflammatory disease,previous ectopic pregnancies or previous surgeries. We report a 24 years old primigravida who is a case of heterotopic pregnancy for curettage was done outside without any evidence of ultrasonogram 1 ½ months ago.Shepresented in OP with irregular bleeding per vaginum on & off for 1 ½ months.A careful ultrasound assessment led to the diagnosis of left chronic tubalgestation.Surgical intervention with supportive measures resulted in a successful outcome.

Abstract: Chilaiditi syndrome is a rare condition which occurs due to transpositioning of a loop of transverse colon between right hemidiaphragm and liver1.It is a rare entity in which patient presents with pain abdomen, vomiting and features of small bowel obstruction. It is often asymptomatic & presents as an incidental finding on chest x-ray or plain x-ray of abdomen known as chilaiditi's sign2 . We present a case of 48 year old male with chilaiditi syndrome and review literature regarding presence of chialditi syndrome.
