It is neuro-invasive, neurotropic and neurovirulent, and can directly induce nervous system diseases due to its preference for the nervous system.Objective: To determine the frequency of common neurological symptoms in patients who have tested positive for the human immunodeficiency virus.Material and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 131 patients for 6 months in the Department of Medicine, Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar (9/7/2019 to 8/1/2020). Routine examinations, CSF cultures, monofilament tests, detailed histories, and ICD-9 criteria inspection were performed on all patients to detect the existence of common neurological symptoms such as TBM, cryptococcal meningitis, peripheral neuropathy, headache, seizures, and dementia. A pre-designed proforma was used to record the data. The data was analyzed us SPSS version 20.

Delays in performing radiology scans or interpreting them can prolong the time until a proper treatment decision can be made, leading to increased costs and potential compromises in patient care.Objective: To find out reasons for delay in radiological reporting and to find out how to reduce them and improve reporting standards.Materials and Methods: This study was an observational descriptive study and it involved data collected from all patients whose CT scan or MRI was performed for random problems in HMC.  There scans were followed till they were reported and handed over to patients or patient's attendants. Questionnaires were given to five consultants of radiology department to know about causes of delay.Results: In this observational study we found that delay in reporting was multifactorial. Approximately 11,600 CT scans and MRI scans were performed in the period between 1st July to 31st December 2018. Approximately 2070 (17.8%) reports were delayed more than 72 hours while 82.1% scan were reported in time within 72 hours. In our study the most important cause of delayed reporting was incomplete history (34.8%), while other causes were inappropriate technique (21.5%), radiologist overburden (29.7%) while in 14% patients the cause of delayed reporting was lack of communication between radiologist and clinician.Key Words: Computed tomography, Magnetic resonance imaging, Reporting.","PeriodicalId":326561,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Saidu Medical College, Swat","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130454217","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}

Still, the best treatment for it remains debatable as there are many new drugs that have evolved for its treatment in addition to dietary modification.Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy of Dexlansoprazole (modified-release 60 mg) and esomeprazole (40 mg) for the resolution of symptoms of GERD.Material and Methods: This randomized controlled trial or intervention was conducted for comparing the clinical efficacy of Dexlansoprazolevs Esomeprazole for the symptomatic treatment of GERD.A total of 100 endoscopically diagnosed patients were selected and were randomly allocated to two groups each containing 50 patients. Group 'A' contained 50 patients who were given 60 mg Dexlansoprazole for 2 weeks and group 'B' also contained the same number of patients receiving the treatment with Esomeprazole 40 mg for the same duration.After informed consent, a validated tool FSSG (Frequency Scale for the Symptoms of GERD) was used to collect the responses of patients.

The wide variability of this extra laryngeal branching (ELB) has significant implications for the risk of iatrogenic injury. Accurate knowledge of anatomical variations of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) provides information to prevent inadvertent intraoperative injury.Objectives: Our study aimed to assess extra laryngeal branching of recurrent laryngeal nerve to find out branching patterns of RLN and to study whether there is any correlation between right and left side branching of RLN.Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective analysis conducted on patients of Thyroid surgeries that is total and Near-total thyroidectomies. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Hayatabad Medical Complex Peshawar from 1st Jan 2014 till 31st Dec 2020, with total of 269 patients. We excluded hemi thyroidectomies and recurrent cases.Results: The prevalence of single branching RLN was found to be 29.3% with 79 out of 269 patients. The branching pattern was found not statistically significant with age and gender. Surgeons need to pay special attention to the branching pattern of RLN so as to preserve it during surgery.Conclusion: The anatomy of the RLN is highly variable, and ELB is likely to have been underreported in intraoperative studies. Because of its high likelihood, the possibility of ELB needs to be assessed in patients to prevent iatrogenic injury and long-term postoperative complications.Key Words: Total thyroidectomy, Recurrent laryngeal nerve.Extralaryngeal branching.","PeriodicalId":326561,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Saidu Medical College, Swat","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123446131","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}
