Therefore, present study was planned to know changes in acid mucins in human knee OA menisci by histochemical analysis of different parts of medial and lateral menisci of both legs. Medial and lateral OA menisci were collected from 110 human knee joints of both sexes. Normal meniscal tissue of sheep was taken as control and studied for histological stain with alcian blue pH 2.5, to find acid mucins changes in OA menisci. Data were analyzed by bivariate and one-way ANOVA using MS-Excel. Osteoarthritis is more common in females than males. OA changes were found to be more on right side in females and on left side in males, while OA was more common in both legs in number of cases in 60-69 years. Further, decreased staining intensity for acid mucins was observed in different parts of medial and lateral OA menisci of both legs than control meniscus. A significant change in level of acid mucin was observed at anterior, middle, and posterior parts of medial and lateral OA menisci of both legs (P-value=0.0306). Significant changes in acid mucins in human OA meniscus provide information on scientific evidence of OA progression, which could help health professionals in development of structure-modifying drugs for OA therapy.","PeriodicalId":87122,"journal":{"name":"Nepal Medical College journal : NMCJ","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48643786","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 current study aimed to study the factors influencing operating time during retrograde intrarenal surgery for renal stone in tertiary care hospital. It is an observational descriptive cross sectional study using purposive sampling method which was conducted among 188 patients who underwent retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) for management of nephrolithiasis in Department of Urology of B&B hospital, Lalitpur, Nepal. The baseline information of the factors affecting operating time were obtained like age, gender, site of renal stone, prestented or not, body mass index (BMI), ureteral access sheath (UAS) use, stone volume and stone density. The mean operating time was high in renal stone with calcium ammonium urate composition. On linear regression analysis, operative times significantly increased with greater stone volumes and also pre-stenting and ureteral access sheath use did significantly difference on operative time. It revealed stone volume to be the most significant predictor of operative time. Thus, the present study provides valuable information regarding the factors influencing operating time during retrograde intrarenal surgery for renal stone.","PeriodicalId":87122,"journal":{"name":"Nepal Medical College journal : NMCJ","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43679618","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}

This is a prospective observational study which was conducted in the Department of Cardiology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh. The blood sample of the patients was collected on the day of admission for serum cystatin C and serum creatinine, then serum creatinine was subsequently followed on days 2 and 7, to identify the development of cardiorenal syndrome type 1. Cardiorenal syndrome type 1 developed in 18 (35.3%) of 51 patients admitted to the CCU. Most of the patients were men and had a median age of 57.61±12.99 years. Patients who had developed AKI had a higher serum cystatin C level (1.58±0.191mg/L vs. 0.971±0.344 mg/L) and also revealed that the stage of severity of the KDIGO AKI was correlated with a higher serum cystatin C.

The episodes of hypotension were significantly lower in Group I as compared to Group II (p<0.001). The dose of mephentermine (p<0.001) used was also significantly lower in Group I as compared to Group II.
