A controlled, randomized trial was conducted in 50 infants with acute dehydrating diarrhea to evaluate the effect of oral zinc supplementation diarrhea. After completion rehydration, 25 Group received sulfate (20 mg elemental twice daily) and an equal number B were given placebo (glucose). Both groups comparable respect various initial characteristics including nutritional status, diarrhea! disease, serum alkaline phosphatase, rectal mucosal content. During therapy all assessed parameters...
Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) procedure is nowadays routinely used for diagnostic sampling of mediastinal lymph nodes. Fracture the during has rarely been reported in past. This reports successful retrieval broken fragment using a snare through fiberoptic bronchoscope. The accidental breakdown was encountered while performing EBUS-TBNA from subcarinal node. cardinal management such emergencies resource-constrained settings can be accomplished by...
Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is commonly characterized by shortness of breath, coughing or expectoration. Smoking the leading cause COPD development, but only a small percentage smokers develop symptoms, implying genetic component. Glutathione S ‐transferase enzymes are responsible for detoxifying cigarette smoke components. The role glutathione T1 (GSTT1) and S‐transferase M1 (GSTM1) gene polymorphism was assessed with susceptibility associated clinical parameters...
Background: Medical students are vulnerable to various lifestyle disorders due improper diet, physical activity and inadequate sleep. Aims: To assess the risk status of components metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases among medical students. Methods: Information was collected using a standard self-administered questionnaire. Blood pressure, waist circumference, height weight were measured procedures. Fasting blood sample taken for plasma glucose, lipid profile, cortisol levels...
Serum and rectal mucosal copper content was estimated in children (6-18 months old) with acute diarrhea (group I: n = 50), chronic II: 25), extraintestinal infections III: 15), apparently healthy controls IV: 20). The sex nutritional status of various groups comparable. mean serum levels infected control were comparable, but significantly (p less than 0.001) greater comparison to groups. tissue group II lower other groups, which There a significant negative correlation between diarrheal...
Background: Antibiotic resistance threatens the health of many throughout world. It is a common problem in ICU patients who acquire nosocomial infections. Critically ill are most vulnerable for developing multidrug resistant Methods: Hospital based, cross sectional, descriptive type observational study involving 311 admitted were studied development Results: In this study, infection rate among was 32.79%. The commonest organism isolated from all samples E. coli., Acinetobacter spp.,...
Background: The cytokine IL-4 plays vital role in the intercellular signalling network during immune responses to allergen exposure. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 202 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and 203 healthy individuals. genotyping of IL4RAQ576R gene polymorphism was determined using PCR restriction fragment length analysis. Results: Significant association between mutant genotype (GG) combined (AA+AG) for risk COPD found (odds ratio [OR]: 4.32; p...
Serum and rectal mucosal magnesium content was estimated in children (6-18 months old) with acute diarrhoea (Group I: n = 50), chronic II: 25), extra-intestinal infections III: 15) healthy controls IV: 20). The sex nutritional status of the different groups were comparable. mean serum levels comparable to infected controls. tissue infants significantly (P less than 0.001) lower other groups. Repeat estimation at discharge 38 patients (25 Group I, 13 II) revealed a significant reduction both...
