Hyperlipidemia and inflammation play major roles in atherothrombosis and in stroke. This study is conducted to compare the high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels and the lipid profile parameters between stroke patients and control group and demonstrate correlation between markers, neurological deficit, and short-term outcome. Methods: We have studied a total 162 patients according to inclusion criteria. Serum level of hs-CRP and lipid profile estimated and correlated with neurological deficit and short-term outcome. Results: We found stroke patients had significantly higher levels of hs-CRP, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and low level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) than control. When we compared ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke (HS), data show increased level of triglyceride, LDL and HD...

Yoga is the ancient technique to increase the concentration power, physical and mental well-being. We have done randomized control study on medical students between study and control group. The study group has practice yoga for 4 weeks whereas the control group hasn't. In the study group there is significantly improvement in cardio-respiratory parameters (p<0.0001).This study showed that regular yoga practice in medical students can decrease their stress and improve cardiac and respiratory function.

Enuresis can be divided into primary and secondary forms. Aim of current study was to find out the prevalence and underlying its risk factors of nocturnal enuresis in age groups 5 to 12 years in the rural areas of the district. Methods: The study was done during the year 2011-12 among 1258 school children residing in rural areas of Ahmadabad district of Gujarat state by the help of health personnel staff with the cooperation of the teaching staff and all the parents of the children. Results: There were 869 males and 389 females. We found the prevalence of nocturnal enuresis in 11.13% of total subjects. Nocturnal enuresis was more common in males than in females, 91/140 in males and 49/140 in female children. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that nocturnal enuresis is a com...

This is especially true of mixed signal semiconductor devices. Today, we not only have micron size fixed mixed signal integrated circuits but also moving mechanical structure integrated all on one chip. The most popular product designed in that manner is Capacitive MicroElectroMechanical System (MEMS) Accelerometer. Capacitive MEMS Accelerometer comprised of spring-mass-damping system. The most vital parameter to determine for such devices is sensitivity. One of the safety-critical applications for MEMS Accelerometer is air bag trigger. During the fabrication flow, the structure parameters and performance of all MEMS device cannot be perfectly identical, due to process variation. For example, due to process variation, one device may have slightly narrower spring width than others. This leads to a slightly larger sensitivity of the device than others. Special apparatus used to calibr...

This study was done to find out the significance of urinalysis and study the magnitude of abnormal urinalysis in healthy adults with no symptoms of renal disease. In our set up routine urine analysis should be performed in all subjects to identify the presence of unrecognized renal disease which may benefit from simple therapeutic measures. Because of simplicity, routine urine analysis is the best way in early detection of most frequent conditions like proteinuria, haematuria, pyuria and glycosuria. This is useful in selecting asymptomatic patients with renal disease who may benefit from early treatment or who requires long term follow up. Material and Methods: Healthy subjects between age group of 20 and 55 years of age were screened for routine urine analysis in rural health area by conducting health camp periodically during from May 2012 to April 2013. A total of 1000 fresh morning samples of urine of the su...

The commonly employed intubation techniques are the use of inflation to a constant pressure (25 cm H2O), sealing pressure and estimation of the cuff pressure by finger palpation. However, the use of the cuff inflation volumes may cause tracheal morbidity. The aim of the present study was to compare the effective tracheal seal and the incidence of post-intubation airway complications between the three techniques.Methods: 90 patients under N2O free general endotracheal anaesthesia were included in the study. They were randomly allotted into three groups consisting of 30 in each. After induction of anesthesia, endotracheal tubes size 7.0 mm for female and 8.5 mm for male were used. Constant pressure group (n=30), the cuff was inflated to a pressure of 25 cm H2O; sealing group (n=30), the cuff was inflated to prevent air leaks at airway pressure of 20 cm H...

Here we report a case of a 29-year-old male admitted to the emergency department with a left mandibular fracture and chest pain after a cocaine binge and subsequent assault. case report: An abnormal chest radiograph taken as part of a trauma series led to further investigations elucidating the eventual diagnosis of pulmonary artery dilatation likely secondary to cocaine. conclusion: to our knowledge, this is the first case reporting pulmonary artery dilatation secondary to cocaine in the absence of pulmonary hypertension. the patient was treated conservatively with outpatient right-heart catheterization and serial transthoracic echocardiography to monitor for emerging pulmonary hypertension. We briefly

Conclusions: Our findings suggest that nocturnal enuresis is a common problem among school children especially with low income, lower age, family history of enuresis and history of urinary tract infection. Enuresis is a pediatric public health problem and efforts at all levels should be made such as preventive, etiological and curative. The ratio of males to females in this study was 1.86 that is comparable to other data of the same study.

Performance of the switches are optimized by theoretical controlled modeling of proton exchanged channel waveguides, electrode placement and with use of low less bends to maintain transition losses at low levels. Proposed structures are evaluated using beam propagation method for a range of driving voltage (10V-22V), with utilization of excellent electro-optic properties of the proton exchanged Lithium Niobate waveguides. The computed results for their performance are in good agreement with previous published data.

The most significant challenge in MEMS testing is having moving silicon parts surrounded by integrated circuitry (IC). Testing integrated circuits, whether analog or digital has its own complexity. However MEMS testing need to be more refined and accurate due to their criticality in applications like automobile airbag trigger, activate skid control, health care, etc. In addition to electrical testing MEMS also requires mechanical testing (Sensitivity) which is an important test parameter to characterize the device and market it with guarantee.
