The study’s objectives were to study the pattern of STI and Reproductive Tract Infections (RTI) cases attending the STI clinic of a Tertiary Care Hospital and to study the epidemiologic correlates of these cases. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among patients attending the STI clinic of a tertiary care hospital in Assam for six months. A structured pretested questionnaire was designed to collect the background information; knowledge, opinion, and attitude on STI/RTI; condom usage, sexual behaviour, and utilization of health services. Informed written consent was taken from the study subjects. Results: Almost 47% of the study subjects were 26-35 years old, and 51.3% were males. Genital ulcer/sore (40.3%) among the males and genital/anal discharge (76.7%) in females were the commonest. Among those having past episodes of STI/RTI, 87.2% got counselling on STI and the use of a condom, and 51.3% counselling and treatment of their sex partners. The most frequent high-risk sexual activity was multiple sex partners. 75% of the respondents did not use a condom during their first sexual activity. Television (80.7%) and radio (80%) were critical education sources. Conclusion: Early sexual activity initiation was not noted in the study. Despite counselling services being used, condom use behaviour was poor. Multiple sex partners were the high-risk activity that was seen most frequently. The study subjects were not well-informed about the link between STIs and HIV/AIDS.","PeriodicalId":366503,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Health Research and Medico-Legal Practice","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130710934","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}
{"title":"Evaluation of serum bilirubin and its role as an antioxidant in coronary artery disease","authors":"D. M, Thakur B, Lahon D, Karim Mn","doi":"10.31741/ijhrmlp.v8.i2.2022.2","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31741/ijhrmlp.v8.i2.2022.2","url":null,"abstract":"Background and aims: Bilirubin was considered a metabolic waste product of heme with no physiological function. Later it was found that bilirubin may possess an antioxidant role due to its biliverdin bilirubin redox cycle. Considering the etiopathology of coronary artery disease (CAD), which involves lipid peroxidation, the present study aims to find an association between established cases of CAD and serum bilirubin levels. Materials and methods: This case-control study includes 50 diagnosed cases of CAD and 50 healthy age and sex-matched individuals as control. Subjects with haemolytic disease, liver disease, renal disease, gout, and thyroid disorder, and those on antioxidant supplementation or lipid-lowering therapy were excluded from the study. The serum bilirubin level is estimated in all subjects in the dry chemistry automated analyzer Vitros 250 system. Data were analyzed by using Microsoft Excel. Results: The mean value of serum bilirubin in CAD cases was 0.46±0.14 mg/dl with the range 0.2-0.9 mg/dl, whereas, in the control group, it was 0.70±0.17 mg/dl with the range of 0.4-1.2mg/dl. The low level of serum bilirubin in CAD cases was found to be significant (p<.001). Conclusion: A significant association between low serum bilirubin and CAD cases was observed. The association of low serum bilirubin levels with CAD may reflect its consumption in endogenous antioxidant activity. The inverse correlation between plasma bilirubin concentration and CAD may have important clinical and diagnostic implications. In this regard, further studies are undoubtedly needed to establish the sensitivity and specificity of serum bilirubin as a marker of cardiovascular morbidity.","PeriodicalId":366503,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Health Research and Medico-Legal Practice","volume":"18 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132118573","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}
