The appendicular origin of gelatinous ascites is the most common and represents 90% of causes. Mucinous tumours of the ovary are a very rare cause.

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that approximately 2.5 billion people living in dengue-endemic countries. Objective: To assess the various factors in pediatric to severe dengue infection-A Retrospective study. Methods: A hospital-based Retrospective study was conducted at Emergency, Observation and Referral Unit, Bangladesh Shishu Hospital and Institute, Dhaka, Bangladesh from January to June 2021. Number of patients included in the study was 52. In children with high degree clinical suspicion of Dengue infection NS 1 antigen (who came within first 48 hours of fever) and/or Dengue Antibody IgM, IgG (who came after five days of fever) were performed. Results: The study was enrolled 102 patients of suspected dengue fever of whom 52 (50.98%) were serologically confirmed to have dengue infection. 29 (55.8%) patients were males and 23 (44.2%) were females. 38 (37.25%) patients had classic dengue fever while 12 (11.76%) fulfilled the criteria of dengue hemorrhagic fever. Of those patients with dengue hemorrhagic fever, 6 patients had developed dengue shock syndrome. Most of dengue cases occurred during the month of June to September depicts the role of rainy season on clustering of cases. Maximum number of cases 52 cases (68.49%) was in the children age groups. All cases and is the most common symptom followed by headache, myalgia, vomiting etc. Hemorrhagic manifestations were seen that included petechiae, ecchymosis, gum bleeding, hematuria, malena, hematemesis and epistaxis. Most common complications were hepatic dysfunction, renal failure, multi organ failure, encephalopathy and ARDS. Conclusion: Dengue is one amongst the key causes of dedifferentiated fever. It presents as an extremely broad wellness and is hardly recognized as a clinical entity by primary health care physicians.

Antibacterial activity of the ethanolic leaf extracts of Andographis paniculata against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli was studied. The fresh leaves of Andographis paniculata were collected randomly from a local farm in Alulu Enugu East L.G.A Enugu State Nigeria. The leaf samples were morphologically identified, washed, air dried at room temperature and milled into powder. Thirty-nine grams of the powder total weight of the extract, was macerated using ethanol as solvent. Phytochemical analysis of the leaves extract was carried out and the results showed that Saponins (++), Tannins (++), Flavonoids (+++), Phenols (+++), Steroids (++) were present while Terpenoids (-), Alkaloids (-) and Glycosides (-) were absent. The extract was concentrated by evaporation at various concentrations (100mg/ml, 300mg/ml, and 500mg/ml) prepared using 5% DMSO. Antibacterial activity was determined using agar well diffusion method, and results showed that there was no antibacterial activity of ethanolic leaf extracts of A. paniculata against E. coli while there was inhibition zones of 20 mm, 17 mm and15 mm against Staphylococcus aureus respectively. The Minimum inhibitory concentration was determined and the results showed that at 12.5mg/ml concentration, the extract was able to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus. The Minimum inhibitory concentration was determined and the results showed that at 12.5mg/ml concentration, the extract was able to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus. This study therefore showed that ethanolic extracts of Andographis paniculata has activity against the Staphylococcus aureus since they exhibited comparable activity with the positive control ciprofloxacin.","PeriodicalId":397187,"journal":{"name":"Global Academic Journal of Medical Sciences","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133986412","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}

There are various surgical options for management of ARM. Colostomy is usually performed as a first stage in a new born with high and intermediate variety of anorectal malformations. The aim of the study was to compare the clinical outcomes between divided and loop sigmoid colostomy for the management of anorectal malformations. Material and Methods: This prospective comparative study was conducted on 130 pediatric patients at the Faculty of Pediatric Surgery, Bangladesh Shishu Hospital and Institute, who were admitted with anorectal malformations (ARM) up to 7 days of age, from March 2018 to February 2021. Informed consent was obtained after proper counselling with the guardian. They were randomly assigned to the divided sigmoid colostomy group (group 1=65 neonates) and loop sigmoid colostomy group (group 2=65 neonates). The comparative parameters between two groups were the operation time, post-operative complications such as wound infection, skin excoriation, prolapse of colostomy, retraction of colostomy and parastomal hernia. All patients were followed up for 2 months post-operatively. Results: The mean age of the patients was 2.43±1.39days in group 1 and in group 2, the mean age was 2.61±1.73 days where majority of the patients were male. The statistical difference between the two groups regarding operation time was highly significant (0.0001). After operation, 26.15% patients developed skin excoriation in group 1 where in group 2, 29.23% patients developed skin excoriation. In group 1, 6.15% patients developed wound infection but none of them developed prolapse, retraction of colostomy and parastomal hernia. On the other hand, in group 2, 1.54% patient developed wound infection, 15.38% patients developed prolapse and 6.15% patients developed retraction of colostomy and no patient experienced parastomal hernia. The statistical difference between the two groups regarding prolapse of colostomy was significant (p=0.042). Conclusion: In our study, the frequency of different stoma-related problems was greater in the loop colostomy group, although being statistically insignificant. In the divided group, there was significantly less stoma prolapse. In light of these results, divided stoma should be suggested for newborns with ARM.","PeriodicalId":397187,"journal":{"name":"Global Academic Journal of Medical Sciences","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128424647","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}
