Abstract: Tuberculosis (TB) is a devastating disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis with over eight million deaths reported annually worldwide from direct or indirect consequences of the disease [1]. Central nervous system (CNS) involvement is the most devastating form of the disease and is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in affected individuals, with permanent sequelae occurring in the majority of the victims.[2] It comprises 10% of all tuberculosis cases and 20% of TB cases in immunocompromised patients [3,4]. In almost all cases, the causative organism is M. tuberculosis. The most common mode of spread of the infection to the CNS is via the hematological route, usually from a pulmonary focus. [5]. Once the organism gains access to the CNS, it........

Abstract: Background: lungultra sound has gained lot of popularity among physicians in recent years .There are studies suggesting that Lung ultrasound has higher sensitivity and specificity in some pulmonary conditions like pneumonia pleural effusion and pulmonary oedema or fibrosis. It is a cheap and portable method of diagnosis . As ultrasound examination of lung involves interpretation of artefacts preset protocols for examination gives ease of training and improves the accuracy. Materials and Methods: In this hospital based prospective observational study, 135 consecutive patients presenting to the emergency department.....

Abstract: Kangaroo Care (KC) in response to a crisis with the large numbers of low birth weight infants, shortage of staff and facilities, overcrowded nurseries & High mortality due to hospital infection. There had been many documented advantages of KC in previous literature. In this study we planned to compare the effect of duration of kangaroo care on daily weight gain in hemo-dynamically stable preterm and low birth weight neonates. This was a stratified randomized control trail which was done for duration of 9 months from March 2019 to November 2019. In this study, haemodynamically stable preterm infants weighing less than 2000 grams were included. Total 79(71.2%) preterm and.....
