It often cripples the ability of the person to cope with day-to-day living. The undergraduate medical training is a stressful period and medical students undergo tremendous stress during various stages of the MBBS course. Aims and Objective: To study mental health morbidity among undergraduate medical students using self reporting Questionnaire in a private medical college. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study carried out among 331 MBBS students (178 females and 153 males) in a private medical college. A validated Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20) was used for finding the probable psychiatric morbidity. Results: The study population comprised of 331students and all of them returned the filled questionnaire of which 41 %were females and 59% males. The composition of the study population was (first-year MBBS students, 75; second year MBBS students, 111; third-year MBBS students, 145). There were total 35 students having SRQ score more than 10 meaning that mental health morbidity was 11% (10.57%) among MBBS students. Conclusion: Mental morbidity in medical students calls for early detection, intervention and support.","PeriodicalId":13909,"journal":{"name":"International journal of biomedical research","volume":"212 1","pages":"580-582"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76165181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Introduction: POVL is a devastating complication in the setting of a non-ophthalmic surgery and can lead to severe legal consequences for the operating surgeon. Raised IOP leading to Ischaemic Optic Nerve Atrophy (ION) is one of the purported factor for POVL. Method: We serially measured IOP with a hand-held tonometer in 40 of our patients undergoing PCNL in prone position, at five-time point settings-Baseline; 10 minutes after anaesthesia (Supine 1); 10 minutes after putting the patient in prone position (Prone 1); At the end of the procedure (Prone 2); Before reversal of anaesthesia (Supine 2). Data analysis was done by repeated measures ANOVA and paired t tests using NCSS software. Results: Out of 40 patients 34(85%) were Males and 6 females (15%); with mean age of 46 years. The duration during which the patient was prone varied was 108.85 24.12 minutes. Measured IOP changed significantly in different positions, being highest in Prone 2 position. The rise in IOP had a linear relationship with the duration during which the patient was prone, reducing after anaesthesia reversal in supine position. Conclusions: Observing the safety measures in PCNL can go a long way in avoiding POVL, especially in those patients with large & complex stones necessitating the patient to be in prone position for longer durations.","PeriodicalId":13909,"journal":{"name":"International journal of biomedical research","volume":"44 5 1","pages":"572-575"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79329582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various factors responsible for variation in pain tolerance are-Method of experimental pain induction, age, gender, race, and exercise, Different levels of anxiety, depression, or previous painful experiences of each subject can alter the reports of pain. The common ways to induce experimental pain in pain tolerance and threshold assessment studies are pressure, thermal, electrical, laser, cold induced pain. We in present study have use pain induced by pressure. Note that pain in these experimental study designs refers to the somatosensory aspect of pain. Aim: To compare pain tolerance in different age group in community dwelling normal healthy adults. Method: 90 asymptomatic community dwelling normal healthy adults were tested. Pressure algometer was used to measure pain tolerance. Algometer was placed on dorsal surface of middle segment of distal phalanges of middle finger. Initial reading of algometer should be 0 lbs. Pressure should be progressively increased until maximum pain which subject can experienced is reached. Subject should be instructed to announce stop verbally at that point and experimenter immediately retracts the algometer. Three readings were taken best of three was selected. Conclusion: For experimental induced pain by pressure- In community dwelling normal healthy adults pain tolerance decreases with an increase in age with maximum tolerance in age group ranging from 15-24 (young adult) and minimum in 45-64(old adult) and is not affected by sex of adult","PeriodicalId":13909,"journal":{"name":"International journal of biomedical research","volume":"26 1","pages":"554-559"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75901306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A number of cross-sectional, case controlled cohort studies have demonstrated an association between high homocysteine level and increased risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and there are equal numbers of studies that show no increase in risk, and there is still a debate as to the strength and validity of the association. This study was done with the objective to estimate the serum levels of vitamin B 12, folic acid and homocysteine in normal healthy controls and patients with stroke and to compare and correlate the values between these two groups. A total of 30 patients with acute ischemic stroke and 30 apparently healthy individuals were included in the study and their serum levels of vitamin B12, folic acid and homocysteine were estimated and statistically analyzed. On analysis; it was found that median serum level of vitamin B12 and folic acid in stroke patients was significantly lower than the controls (p < 0.001) and median serum level of total homocysteine in stroke patients was significantly higher than the controls (p= 0.009). It was also noted that there was a significant negative correlation between homocysteine and folic acid in controls while there was no significant correlation between homocysteine and vitamin B12 in both the groups. In conclusion, these results show that low levels of serum vitamin B12, folic acid and high levels of serum homocysteine are significantly associated with acute ischemic stroke.","PeriodicalId":13909,"journal":{"name":"International journal of biomedical research","volume":"151 1","pages":"566-571"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76245221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The wet mount was observed under microscope for parasites.Results: Among 112 individuals screened, intestinal parasitosis was seen in 32.1% of people. Giardia lamblia (17%) was the most common parasite followed by Entamoeba histolytica (9%) and Ascaris lumbricoides (7.3%). Co-infection was a common trend with 33.3% of positive samples being co-infected with multiple parasites.Conclusion: The study shows that although the differently-abled people are prone to parasitic infection, the prevalence is same as normal people.
