Eighty patients infected with MS diagnosed on the basis of national cholesterol education program adult treatment panel III criteria were included in this study on the basis of predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Demographic details such as age, gender, and socioeconomic status of all the patients were noted. A thorough general and clinical examination was conducted, including the assessment of vital signs. Polysomnography was done in all cases and the diagnosis of OSA was based on polysomnography results. SSPS 21.0 was used for statistical analysis and p<0.05 was taken as statistically significant.\u0000Results: Out of 80 patients, there were 58 (72.50%) males and 22 (27.50%) females with a M: F ratio of 1: 0.37. The overall mean age of the studied cases was found to be 44.60±12.92. Mild (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] 5–14), moderate (AHI=15–30), and severe OSA (AHI >30) was seen in 33 (41.25%), 17 (21.25%) and 9 (11.25%) patients, respectively. Overall prevalence of OSA in cases of MS was found to be 73.75% as the severity of OSA increased there was decreased in mean sleep time and the difference was found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). The most common presenting complaint was loud snoring, observed in 55 patients (93.22%). This was followed by daytime sleepiness in 47 patients (79.66%), waking up tired in 37 patients (62.71%), and disturbed sleep in 36 patients (61.02%).\u0000Conclusion: The prevalence of OSA is notably high among individuals with MS.

The assessment was done with semi-structured pro forma, Beck depression inventory (BDI), and quality of life (QoL) measure – Skindex-16. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 24.0 was used for statistical analysis and p<0.05 was taken as statistically significant.\u0000Results: Out of 100 cases, there were 60 (60%) males and 40 (40%) were females with M: F ratio of 1:0.66. The mean age of male and female patients was found to be comparable with no statistically significant difference (p=0.6061). The majority were married, employed, and from rural backgrounds. 22% satisfied the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders 5th edition criteria for major depressive disorder. Assessment using BDI in these patients for severity of depression showed mild depression in 12%, moderate depression in 7%, and severe depression in 3%. Patients having a longer duration of illness and a history of frequent hospitalization were found to have significantly high scores on the subscale for depressive symptoms. QoL assessment using the Skindex-16 scale among these patients showed that they experienced more severe emotional and symptomatic effects due to skin disease compared to functional effects, especially during relapse. Those who had poor QoL showed significantly high scores on the subscale for depressive symptoms.\u0000Conclusion: More than 20% of patients of pemphigus had diagnosable depression with significant effects on QoL. Therefore, regular screening for depression is important in pemphigus patients as it will help in planning early intervention.","PeriodicalId":8528,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical and Clinical Research","volume":" 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141371335","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 study aimed to compare oral and parenteral MTX intake regarding the efficacy and risk of liver impairment in patients with RA.\u0000Subject: Thirty patients who were newly diagnosed with RA according to EULAR/ASAR were included in the study. MTX was given for them for 6 months in a dose ranging between 2 and 25 mg either orally or parenterally intramuscular and subcutaneously once weekly. Patients were assessed depending on clinical disease activity index (CDAI) score and liver enzymes were measured before and after the start of the treatment.\u0000Results: The study showed that parenteral MTX intake significantly improves the CDAI score more than oral intake, CDAI reduced from 13.15±3.25 to 5.57±2.34 following 6 months of treatment in comparison to its’ insignificant reduction from 12.72±3.13 to 8.90±3.08 following oral treatment. Regarding liver enzymes, the impairment in alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase is significantly less than that with oral ones with the same effect on alkaline phosphatase.\u0000Conclusion: Parenteral MTX intake tends to be more efficacious in attaining low disease activity than oral intake with a lower rate of impaired liver function.","PeriodicalId":8528,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical and Clinical Research","volume":" 24","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141373833","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}

A total of 150 patients belonging to ASA 1 and 2 in the age group of 18–60 years scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia were allocated into three groups.
