RÉSUMÉ

The chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the important pulse crops grown in India. Chickpea wilt complex is one of the most devastating crop diseases in northern Karnataka. Because of abundant inoculum in the soil and suitable environment circumstances, infected plants die, resulting in full loss of yield. A random roaming study was done in important chickpea farming districts of northern Karnataka, namely Dharwad, Belagavi, Haveri, Gadag, Bagalkot, Kalaburgi, and Vijayapur, during Rabi 2021-22 and 2022-22, to establish disease incidence and its in severity in different places. The survey results demonstrated a link between three pathogens: Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri, Rhizoctonia bataticola, and Sclerotia rolfsii. Dharwad district has the highest illness incidence (30.20%), followed by Kalburgi district.with 29.85 per cent.

RÉSUMÉ

The aim of this study was to report the endodontic management of maxillary incisors having two canals with rare type IV vertucci canal configuration. Internal morphology of root canals is variable and often complex. Therefore, to achieve a technically satisfactory endodontic outcome, the clinician must have an adequate knowledge of the internal canal morphology and its variations to debride and obturate the root canal system thoroughly. This case report describes the successful endodontic treatment of both the mandibular central incisors having two-root canals in same individual.

RÉSUMÉ

Aim To evaluate the bleaching efficacy of 16% carbamide peroxide, 30%hydrogen peroxide for intracoronal bleaching of root filled discoloured tooth. Methodology Extracted teeth were artificially stained using human blood then centrifuged under 3,200 rpm speed for 30 min thrice daily for a period of 2 days to enhance penetration of the haemolysed red blood cells into the dentinal tubules. The precipitate was removed, and the teeth were immersed in the remaining haemoglobin-rich haemolysate for further 2 days, centrifuging it thrice daily for 30 min. The resultant discoloured teeth were then washed in distilled water. Root canal treatment was performed. After obturation, a 2-mm intermediate base of Intermediate restorative material IRM was placed to 1-mm apical to the cementoenamel junction. Teeth were divided into three groups with 10 teeth per group. Intracoronal bleaching was performed using either 35% carbamide peroxide gel (group CP) in one group, 35% hydrogen peroxide gel (group HP) in another group and distilled water in the control group as the third group. The bleaching agents were replaced after 5 days. The shade of the teeth was evaluated at day 0, 5 and 10 using VITA Zahnfabrik, Bad Sa¨ckingen, Germany) shade guide. The results were analysed using Kruskal–Wallis one-way analysis of variance and Mann–Whitney U-test. Results When superoxol and control group are compared, there shows a clear difference of significance between these two materials. But when superoxol and carbamide peroxide are compared, there is no difference of significance. Both superoxol and carbamide peroxide showed same results. Both are effective bleaching agents. Conclusion In our study we noticed that 16% carbamide peroxide and 30% hydrogen peroxide are equally effective in the treatment of intracoronal bleaching which we observed in a 5,10,15 days of regular intervals.

RÉSUMÉ

Background: Candida species are known to be the most common fungal pathogens isolated from blood cultures of neonates. Recent reports from our country indicates trend towards an increasing prevalence of non-albicans candidemia. Candida species possess a number of virulence factors which enable them to cause hematogenously disseminated infections in susceptible hosts with increased morbidity and mortality. Objective of current study was to know the prevalence of nonalbicans candidemia in neonates and their antifungal susceptibility pattern. Methods: Blood samples from suspected cases of neonatal septicaemia were subjected to culture, incubated for 7 days and subcultures performed. Culture yielding pure growth of Candida were included for the study and identified by standard methodology. Antifungal susceptibility was performed. Results: A total of 255/500 (51%) cases were blood culture positive. Pure growth of Candida species was isolated from 52/255 (20.39%) cases. A total of 52 Candida isolates were obtained over a period of one year accounting for 20.39% of all neonatal septicemia cases. Among 52 isolates, 14/52 (26.92%) were Candida albicans, followed by C. tropicalis 19/52 (36.53%), C. glabrata 10/52 (19.23%), C. parapsilosis 4/52 (7.69%), C. guillermondii 2/52 (3.84%) and C. krusei 1/52 (1.92%). C. tropicalis, the most common species isolated, was 91 per cent susceptible to fluconazole, whereas C. parapsilosis and C. glabrata showed lower sensitivity rates of 67.8% and 62.5% respectively. Conclusion: In this study non albicans candida was the common isolate & they showed decreased resistance to Fluconazole. In neonatal septicemia speciation& antifungal susceptibility may help in management.

Background: Dengue fever and Dengue Haemorrhagic fever (DF/DHF) is an acute viral disease caused by Dengue virus. The infection is transmitted by the bite of an infected female mosquito- Aedes aegypti. The Dengue virus causes significant morbidity and mortality in many parts of the world, including India, where it was first isolated in Calcutta, West Bengal during 1945. This study was conducted to know the seroprevalence of Dengue virus in a tertiary care hospital, Hyderabad Methods: Blood for serological studies are carefully collected taking due universal precautions from suspected DF/DHF cases (a) as soon as possible after hospital admission or attendance. All the patients were screened for anti-Dengue IgG and IgM antibodies By Enzyme Immunoassay. The study period was 18 months from 2012. Results: From a total of 1327serum samples tested were screened for Dengue IgM and IgG among which 706(53.2%) were positive. 125(17.7%) were only IgM positive and 198(28.05%) of the tested samples showed only IgG positive. 383(54.25%) of the tested samples revealed positive for both IgM and IgG antibodies. Conclusion: Surveillance is prerequisite for monitoring the dengue situation in the area and should be carried out regularly for early detection of an impending outbreak and to initiate timely preventive and control measures.

RÉSUMÉ

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is an increasing public health concern worldwide. It is one of the most important causes of infectious morbidity and mortality. Genital TB is one form of extra pulmonary TB and is not uncommon, particularly in communities where pulmonary TB is prevalent. The objective of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of female genital tuberculosis in Hyderabad and its presentational symptoms and methods of diagnosis. Methods: A total of 1102 cases of suspected genital TB who had been registered and treated in the AIMSR and few selected government urban health post and private hospitals and clinics in different zones of Hyderabad, from 2012 January to 2013 March were retrospectively and prospectively studied. From this group, 23 women were diagnosed as having genital TB based on the standard pathological and microbiological criteria of tissue specimens. Results: Out of 23 cases diagnosed as having genital tuberculosis, 3 patients (13.04 %) presented with abdominal or pelvic pain. In 17cases (73.91%) tuberculosis was diagnosed during studies performed to evaluate the cause of their infertility, and the most common diagnostic procedure was endometrial curettage. Remaining 3 cases (13.05 %) have past, present or contact history of tuberculosis. Female genital TB accounted for 2.08 % of all tuberculosis patients in this study. Conclusions: This study indicates the presence of a strong relationship between genital TB and infertility; therefore genital TB would be more frequently diagnosed if this possibility was considered in the evaluation of every infertile patient in areas where tuberculosis is endemic.

RÉSUMÉ

During the laboratory dissection of the fore arm, an accessory head of flexor pollicis longus muscle has been observed unilaterally in the right upper limb of a male cadaver. It took its origin from the under surface of flexor digitorum superficialis muscle just distal to the origin of this muscle from medial epicondyle. On further dissection we have noticed that, the accessory belly was running downwards to the medial aspect of the tendon of flexor pollicis longus muscle for its insertion. Its possible role in anterior interosseous syndrome is discussed in detail with a brief review.


Durante una disección en el laboratorio se encontró en el antebrazo derecho de un cadáver de sexo masculino una cabeza accesoria del músculo flexor largo del pulgar. Ésta se originaba de la superficie profunda del músculo flexor superficial de los dedos, inmediatamente distal al origen de este músculo en el epicónddilo medial. El vientre accesorio se dirigía hacia abajo medial al tendón del músculo flexor largo del pulgar hasta su inserción. Se discute detalladamente su posible rol en el síndrome interóseo anterior.

RÉSUMÉ

Intrathecal methotrexate in children with leukemia is known to cause seizures, dementia, leukoencephalopathy and cognitive dysfunction. To investigate the role of brain amines in cognitive dysfunction, male Wistar rats were given multiple intracerebroventricular injections of methotrexate. Our earlier studies in this regard revealed disruption of brain monoamines in hippocampus with severe cytotoxic effect on CA4 hippocampal neurons. Further extending this study, the levels of brain monoamines in frontal cortex, hypothalamus and brainstem were estimated by HPLC method and histopathological study of the frontal cortex. The concentration of all three-brain amine (norepinephrine, dopamine and serotonin) levels was reduced in 2 mg/kg dose of methotrexate in frontal cortex and brain stem. Hypothalamus did not show any significant change in brain monoamine levels. No structural changes in the frontal cortex neurons were observed. Disruption of brain monoamines has been proposed as a cause of brain dysfunction from this chemotherapy. The outcome of the study may have therapeutic implications in the management of childhood lymphoblastic leukemia.

RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVE: Estimation of prevalence of Candida in the oral cavity of diabetic and non-diabetic subjects. MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hundred and three subjects of diabetes mellitus (49 Type 1 diabetes mellitus and 54 Type 2 diabetes mellitus) and one hundred non-diabetic subjects (control) were studied. RESULTS: 41(83.67%) out of 49 Type 1 diabetes mellitus, 37(68.52%) out of 54 Type 2 diabetes mellitus and 27(27%) out of 100 in non-diabetic subjects were found to carry Candida in their oral cavity. Colony Forming Unit (CFU) of Candida in the oral cavity ranking in groups was Type 1 diabetes mellitus > Type 2 diabetes mellitus > non-diabetic subjects. CONCLUSION: Colonization and carriage of Candida in the oral cavity was found to be higher in diabetic subjects than in non-diabetic subjects. However anti-diabetic therapy and glycaemic control in diabetes were found to bear no relation with carriage of Candida in the oral cavity.

RÉSUMÉ

Neonatal rat pups (7 days old) were intubated with either 50 mg/kg body weight or 100 mg/kg body weight of aqueous root extract of Clitoria ternatea (CTR) for 30 days. These rats were then subjected to open field, two compartment passive avoidance and spatial learning (T-Maze) tests (i) immediately after the treatment and (ii) 30 days after the treatment, along with age matched normal and saline control rats. Results showed no change in open field behaviour, but showed improved retention and spatial learning performance at both time points of behavioural tests, indicating the memory enhancing property of CTR which implicates a permanent change in the brain of CTR treated rats.

RÉSUMÉ

The management of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) during pregnancy, especially with ongoing bleeding diathesis, has not been highlighted sufficiently in the literature. Aortocaval compression and reduction in uteroplacental circulation resulting in foetal hypoxia and acidosis, Mendelson's syndrome due to gravid uterus, trauma to airway with resultant haemorrhage and aspiration into lungs, compromised airway due to short neck, anasarca and heavy breast, limitation in using invasive monitoring and regional anaesthesia and uncontrolled bleeding leading to placental hypoperfusion and foetal hypoxia are some of the important risks. In the present case report, anaesthetic management for splenectomy during pregnancy complicated with pregnancy induced hypertension and bleeding diathesis secondary to ITP is described with reference to above risks.

RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVES: Haemodialysis patients often fail to respond to hepatitis B vaccination. There are various agents that can be used as vaccine adjuvant in chronic renal failure patients on haemodialysis. In this study, the adjuvant effect of granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GMCSF) is compared with that of control subjects. METHODS: In this study, eight patients were started on 150 mcg of GMCSF subcutaneously 24 hours prior to intramuscular hepatitis B vaccination (20 mcg of genetically engineered vaccine at the same site). The antibody response to surface antigen (anti HBsAg) in these patients were compared with those of eight control subjects who received standard three doses of monthly 40 mcg of same hepatitis B vaccine. RESULTS: In the control study, only two patients developed significant antibody response to surface antigen whereas seven of eight patients in GMCSF group developed significant antibody titres (> 10 IU/L). The sero-protection rate was 87.5% in GMCSF group and 25% in control group. CONCLUSION: This study shows that GMCSF offers significantly better seroprotection against hepatitis B compared to standard dose of vaccination in patients with chronic renal failure on haemodialysis.

RÉSUMÉ

Primary angioplasty has been shown to reduce rates of in-hospital mortality, recurrent ischaemia and infarction. However, the role of primary stenting and abciximab is presently undergoing evaluation. This study attempted to examine the feasibility, safety and outcomes of primary angioplasty in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction. Data in 100 patients who underwent primary angioplasty for evolving acute myocardial infarction was prospectively analysed to assess the safety and efficacy of various modalities. Twenty patients were in Killip class III and above. Multivessel (2 or more vessels) disease was noted in more than 52 cases. Procedural success was 99 percent; 86 patients received primary stenting, majority of them had Kalam-Raju stent implantation. Adjunct treatment included abciximab infusion in 22 and intra-aortic balloon pump support in 12. Overall mortality rate was six percent with a mortality of 2.2 percent in non-cardiogenic shock patients. Recurrent ischaemic events were noted in five, three of them had successful reperfusion with repeat angioplasty. None of the patients had emergency coronary artery bypass surgery. It is concluded that primary angioplasty is safe and effective with high procedural success. Recurrent ischaemic events are low, possibly due to routine use of stenting and selective use of abciximab.

RÉSUMÉ

The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility, safety and efficacy of elective deployment of a new coil-stent (KR stent) in patients with coronary artery disease. KR stent deployment was attempted in 100 patients (135 lesions) enrolled prospectively at a single centre from December 1996 to March 1997. Ten, 15, 18, 24, and 32 mm long KR stents were manually crimped onto balloons and deployed in native coronary artery lesions. Majority of the patients had recent acute coronary syndromes (unstable angina 30% and post-myocardial infarction angina 56%). Diabetes was present in 34 percent of the patients. Fifty-six percent had single-vessel and 44 percent multi-vessel disease. In 38 percent, the lesions were located in proximal segments and 40 percent of lesions were long. KR stents were successfully deployed in 98 percent of patients. Mean minimal luminal diameter increased by 2.89 +/- 0.63 mm (from 0.57 +/- 0.38 mm before to 3.45 +/- 0.56 mm after the procedure). Mean percent diameter stenosis decreased from 83.33 +/- 10.84 percent before to 3.38 +/- 5.74 percent after the stent deployment. Mean reference vessel diameter was 3.45 +/- 0.56 mm. There were occasional technical complications including balloon rupture (1), stent migration (2) and distal embolisation of atheromatous material (1). One patient developed subacute stent thrombosis. There were no other major in-hospital cardiovascular events. At the end of six-month follow-up, there were no myocardial infarction or death. Six patients presented with recurrence of symptoms within six-months of the procedure, four of whom underwent target vessel revascularisation procedure. In conclusion, the in-hospital and six-month follow-up clinical results were highly encouraging with KR stent. Successful deployment rates were high despite unfavourable clinical and angiographic background. Low clinical events on follow-up will make it suitable for elective stenting.

RÉSUMÉ

Of the 378 cases of stage 3 carcinoma uterine cervix, only 10 showed vesical invasion, while 19 of 24 cases of stage 4 disease had vesical invasion. Results of this procedure did not alter the management of the disease in any of these cases. From the whole series it was concluded that cysto-urethroscopy is an unnecessary, cost ineffective, invasive procedure which has no role in either diagnosis or in planning the definitive treatment of carcinoma uterine cervix.

RÉSUMÉ

This is a report a case with a unilateral single ectopic ureter associated with ipsilateral incomplete duplication of upper third of the ureter, contralateral quadrufid ureter and L3 hemivertebra. These findings provide further evidence of a generalised mesenchymal or epithelial defect, which would explain a defective ureteral bud and metanephric development, besides associated anomalies.
