Infections with multidrug resistant organisms (MDRO’s) increase the morbidity and mortality in addition to financial costs, especially in vulnerable patients. Knowing the profile of MDRO’s in a particular region or institution helps in optimal and timely antibiotic therapy, which is a key factor in avoiding the selection pressure exerted on microorganisms. In this study, microbiological profile of significant MDRO’s isolated over a period of two years were analysed retrospectively. 58% of the total isolates were classified as MDRO’s. Intensive care units (ICU’s) contributed to a significantly higher number of MDRO’s than other departments (p<0.001). Methicillin resistance was seen in 54% of the Staphylococcus aureus isolates. Carbapenem resistance was encountered widely amongst members of the genus enterobacteriaceae (approximately 40% isolates of Klebsiella spp. and Enterobacter spp.) and Acinetobacter spp. (78%). This study emphasizes the fact that AMR burden is high in lowand middle-income countries (LMIC’s) and that a concerted effort on the part of legislators, medical community and general public is required to address the issue.","PeriodicalId":14316,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research","volume":"70 1","pages":"404-411"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72946422","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 care for the mother during pregnancy, during delivery, and after delivery is important for the wellbeing of the mother and the child. Maternal health-care varies within developing countries, which shows differences between affluent and poor women, and between women living in urban and rural areas. Health care service provision in India is very diverse, with rural services achieving considerably less coverage than their urban counterparts. It was found that following factors affects the antenatal care utilization maternal education, husband’s education, marital status, availability, cost, household income, women’s employment, media exposure and having a history of obstetric complications. If a woman visited health centre three or more than three times, her chances were 31 percent higher to deliver in an institution. Poorer women may prefer home-based delivery care. Lack of affordability might explain the large poor–rich inequalities in professional delivery attendance within urban and rural areas. Traditional beliefs and ideas about pregnancy also influence on antenatal care use. Older women would have accumulated knowledge on maternal health care and therefore would likely have more self-confidence on pregnancy and childbirth and thus, may give less importance to obtaining institutional care. Incomplete access and underutilization of modern healthcare services are major causes for poor health in the developing countries. There is a need of enhancing community awareness about the importance for educating women about early detection of complications during pregnancy and promptly seeking care, and about the importance of giving birth in a health facility.","PeriodicalId":14316,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"397-403"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83079585","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}

In the Vedic period, the use of iron tools and later the discovery of irrigation techniques made people more efficient in agriculture, while in the British era, growing commercial crops like cotton and indigo brought about a big change and earning money became the main objective of agriculture. As a result of this, the food crisis has emerged as a major problem. The Green Revolution of the 1970s heralded a new era of rapid food production. One of the main catalysts for this revolution was the use of chemical fertilizers. Certainly, the Green Revolution solved the immediate food crisis, but heralded a harmful method for the future.

Materials and Methods: Placentae of 60 singleton non-anomalous preterm births were examined at Department of pathology at Tertiary care centre. Complete placental examination including both macroscopic and microscopic examination with the help of Haematoxylin and Eosin staining done. Thereafter placental lesions were classified according to Redline criteria for classification of placental pathology. Thereafter placental lesions were correlated with perinatal mortality and neonatal morbidity in early neonatal period. The relevant clinical details were collected from the obstetric clinical records and neonatal clinical records. Result: We found placental vascular processes as most frequent (73.33%) pathological lesion in our study. Most common inflammatory lesion in our study was chorioamnionitis (15%). Also among placentae of stillbirths, placental vascular lesions were predominant finding present in 85.7% of placentae of stillbirths. Other lesions found in placentae of stillbirths were Immune inflammatory lesions, maternal floor infarction and placenta accreta. Out of total placentae with vasculopathy, 19.2% cases developed neonatal sepsis, in chorioamnionitis group 66.6% live births were having sepsis. In present study we observed higher frequency of resuscitation in babies with placentae having chorioamnionitis. Discussion: This study revealed that the placental pathological findings appear to be correlated with perinatal mortality and early neonatal morbidity. So, examination of the preterm placentae gains importance in early determination of morbidity in infants. Placental findings can help neonatologist in routine diagnosis and management.","PeriodicalId":14316,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research","volume":"35 1","pages":"357-364"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73977683","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}

Sensorineueal hearing loss is the most common non hereditary manifestation. Majority of the babies are asymptomatic or have non specific symptoms at birth. An early diagnosis can help in starting antiviral treatment based on the clinical disease to prevent end organ damage and to intervene early in babies with hearing impairment which can reduce long term sequelae. Objectives :The aim of the study is to diagnose and quantitate neonatal CMV infection by qRTPCR (Quantitative Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction) ,to evaluate the proportion and clinical profile of congenital CMV infections in a tertiary care hospital. Materials and Methods:This cross sectional diagnostic evaluation was done in the Dept. of Microbiology and Neonatal unit of Dept of Paediatrics, Govt Medical college .Kozhikode from August 2017 to December 2018. Details of demographic data, clinical profile, and CMV viral load in urine in various clinical infections were obtained and analyzed. Urine samples from 225 babies were received and processed in the Microbiology Department. DNA isolation and amplification was performed using commercial DNA extraction kit and CMV PCR kit for detection and quantification of CMV. Results:Of 225 babies with clinical features suggestive of CMV infection, CMV-DNA was detected and quantitated in urine of 27 babies (12%). The most common clinical presentation was hearing impairment, seen in 22 babies. Conclusion:RT-qPCR helps in diagnosing and quantitating CMV in congenital neonatal infection which helps in deciding on therapy and assessing response to treatment and can predict risk for long term sequelae. Diagnosis of congenital CMV in the newborn period is important for identifying those with neurologic abnormalities where appropriate treatment and management is essential.","PeriodicalId":14316,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research","volume":"256 1","pages":"316-323"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90520791","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}
