Materials and methods: The study was performed in the Biochemistry Department, Subharti Medical College, Swami Vivekananda Subharti University, Meerut. 50 females, 21-50 years of age as labourers (control); 50 other healthy females of same age group sedentary ( cases) were included. All the samples were processed in related automatic machines Vidas and Vitros 350/Fusion by Biomerieux. Results: In our study we found that the levels of serum calcium were 7.25 ± 1.14, serum phosphorous 3.99 ± 0.69 and vitamin D 8.39 ± 2.86 in cases and levels of serum calcium were 8.72 ± 0.58, phosphorous 4.44 ± 0.59 and vitamin D 32.51 ± 6.92 in the control group respectively. Conclusion: Our study perceived that the level of serum Calcium, Phosphorus and vitamin D were significantly decreased in females, less exposed to sun as compared to heavy working females exposed to sun. Thus we could conclude that the maintenance of normal levels of vitamin D is contributed not only by adequate exposure to sun light and exercise, but also to the dietary habits.","PeriodicalId":8195,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Research","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72919995","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}

Materials and methods: 180 cases were randomized to 9 groups of 20 cases (n=20). 15 mg of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine and 0.5 ml of serum physiological were administrated to the control group (group-0). In the other groups, instead of serum physiological: Group-1 (2.5 mg hyperbaric bupivacaine), Group-2 (12.5 mg ketamine), Group-3 (25 μgr Fentanyl), Group-4 (2.5 μg sufentanyl), Group-5 (2 μg dexmedetomidine), Group-6 (250 μg neostigmine), Group-7 (500 μg midazolame), Group-8 (1.25 mg Droperidole) were combined with hyperbaric bupivacaine. Total spinal drug volume was 3.5 ml. Intraoperative and postoperative side effects, time to the first pain, and the characteristics of spinal anaesthesia were recorded. Results: Intrathecal adjuvant agents had no effects on the characteristics of the spinal anaesthesia (p>0.05). Time to the first pain was similar between the groups (p>0.05). The most common side effect was pruritus in Group-3 and Group-4 (p>0.05), nausea-vomiting in Group-6 (p>0.05), urinary retention in Group-2 and Group-4 (p>0.05), and PSBA in Group-1 and Group-3 (p>0.05). Discussion: No differences in the time to the first pain were found between intrathecal adjuvant agents. Their effects on the characteristics of spinal anaesthesia were similar. Each adjuvant agent causes specific side effects. However, postoperative analgesic requirement was not considered in our study, and dose-finding studies (which are performed to determine the adjuvant agent doses that cause minimal and maximal side effects) were not performed. Further studies should be performed to evaluate those factors.","PeriodicalId":8195,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Research","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79085424","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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the physicians’ acceptance and confidence in results generated by the laboratories in Mandeville and to identify the factors contributing to or associated with the determined level of acceptance and confidence. The study used a population survey to collect data from twenty –six (26) participants from the public and private medical practices around the town of Mandeville. The correlation between the number of repeated tests (dependent variable) and the level of acceptance of patient result was evaluated, r=1, p<0.001. Approximately 100% of the participants scored their level of acceptance of patient results between 7 and 9 out of 10 with a mean score of 8.5 and median score 9. There was a strong correlation (r= 1, p<0.001) between years of experience and the frequency with which tests were repeated. Laboratory accreditation and compliance with standards are two of the most important tools influencing accuracy of laboratory tests and ultimately test result. The quality of laboratory test result impact patient treatment and will determine physicians’ level of acceptance and confidence in the report generated.","PeriodicalId":8195,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Research","volume":"98 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76103427","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 sexual offences, specifically semen on victim’s clothes or biological samples proves involvement of accused in the crime. But in some cases where contraceptive devices are used or semen stains are not detected during investigation, the victim’s blood or body fluid on the accused’s garments helps to prove the crime. It is difficult to prove the evidence by routine ABO grouping in most of the cases because of the less quantity of blood. Further, discrimination power of ABO Blood group system is less. Here, DNA profiling technique has created wonders from the time it has been invented. Once the DNA technique proves involvement of the accused, there is provision of ‘Protection of Children from Sexual Offences ’ (POCSO) Act 2012 in the court to effectively address the heinous crimes. Also, there is provision of Atrocity Act to provide justice to SC/ST communities in order to enable them to live in the society with dignity without suppression from the dominant castes. In the instant case, a girl aged 11, promising to drop to the school on motor cycle was raped by Police Constable aged 41. Just 2 cm blood stain was found on his undergarment and few blood stains were found on his handkerchief at the crime scene.

The success of this approach for the intervention of Onchocerciasis led to the extension of the strategy for the intervention of the other diseases in Africa. Community Health Workers (CHWs) working under the CDI of malaria program play a vital role in primary health care of the community. Local health services and partners initially introduce the intervention and explain the community-directed approach and how it can be planned, run and controlled by the community. This project was aimed at assessing the effectiveness of the implementation of the CDI in the roll-back of malaria among under-five children in the Ndop Health District, with special emphasis of the home management of malaria (HMM) by the Community Health Workers (CHWs). Among the CHW involved in the study, 94.7% of them accepted to receive monetary incentive for their services as CHW. Up to 39.8% of them had no other source of income. Furthermore, 74.3% of the participants reported that they have regular monthly meetings with their supervisor while 25.6% of them had either irregularly-scheduled meetings or none. While 76.1% of respondents accepted to have had at least one refresher course since working under the CDI of malaria program, 23.9% reported to have never had one. While 43.3% of the respondents found their workload okay, 8.9% of them reported they were overworked. A majority (47.8%) of the respondents reported that they found their workload as community health workers manageable. While majority of the respondents reported irregularity in the supply of both antimalarial drugs (64.6%) and RDT kits (73.5%), a majority of them said the supply of registers for records and the provision of transportation means were regular (71.7% and 69% respectively).","PeriodicalId":8195,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Research","volume":"117 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79229121","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}
