ABSTRACT Background: Stroke is a major public health problem contributing to significant morbidity and mortality across the globe. In spite of many reviews documenting a strong association between stroke and depression, it is the most ignored aspect in many developing countries including India, due to paucity of studies on the subject. Hence the current study was conducted with an objective of assessing the prevalence of depression among the stroke patients and factors influencing it in a tertiary care teach- ing hospital Materials & Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in the department of Neurology and the department of Psychia- try in NRI General Hospital. The study had included 56 eligible stroke patients and evaluated them for depression using DSM-IV TR Diagnostic criteria and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D). Results: The prevalence of depression in study population was 46.4%, out of which 21.4% had minor depression and 25% had major depression. The demographic factors which have shown increased risk of depression were female gender, primary school educational status, middle socioeconomic class and living in an extended nuclear family or joint family. But none of the associations had shown statistical significance. The disease related factors associated with increased risk of stroke were pres- ence of aphasia, severe limitation of and presence of stressful life event. Out of these only severe limitation of ADL has shown statistically significant association. Conclusions: The prevalence of depression is very high in patients affected by stroke. The major factors which were associated with increased risk of depression were female gender, presence of aphasia, severe limitation of ADL and presence of stressful life events.

Microscopic Ear Surgery using a post-auricular approach is the most common tympanoplasty technique before the evolution of endoscopes. Endoscopic Ear Surgery, with the advent of new instruments, became a more powerful surgical method in the treatment of ear disease [2] Endoscopic Ear Surgery, now called transcanal endoscopic ear surgery TEES, provide wide-angle vision with high resolution and magnication of structures of the middle ear. The endoscopic ear surgery helps to direct visualization of hidden areas such as the sinus tympani, the epi tympanum, meso tympanum, and the hypotympanum [3, 4, 5]. The present study evaluates the tympanoplasties to treat chronic otitis media without cholesteatoma. The study compares the surgical outcome of hearing restoration rates. It also helps to study the variant anatomy of the middle ear and pathology of csom at the time of surgery.

Candida species are now among the most common health care –associated pathogens. Most of the studies show that the predominant species C. albicans has been replaced by non albicans Candida with the use of antifungal agents. As various species differ in susceptibility pattern to the newer antifungal agents, antifungal susceptibility test should be performed before administration of antifungal agents. To isolate and identify different Candida species in various clinical specimens, to know the predominant species, to study the risk factors, to compare the advantage of rapid method such as use of Chrom agar over conventional methods for identification and confirmation of Candida species and to detect their antifungal susceptibility pattern. All the clinical samples collected from cases of candidiasis K e yw or ds were processed initially using blood agar, MacConkey bile salt lactose agar and SDA with chloramphenicol.

Aim: A Clinical study of dengue fever cases in the extended monsoon period and to evaluate the need for platelet transfusion in dengue fever cases. Retrospective Observational Study — Results: In the retrospective observational study, the diagnostic serotyping was done using rapid standard diagnostic kits. Eighty-four dengue seropositive were seen of which dengue fever cases were 55, dengue hemorrhagic fever were 27 and dengue shock syndrome were 2 cases only. Totally, 26 cases with dengue hemorrhagic fever whose platelet counts were below 50,000 cells/cu mm, were given random pooled donor platelet concentrates, while two cases of dengue shock syndrome were given single donor platelet concentrates, Kakarla Thota Kanugolu fresh frozen plasma and whole blood transfusion.

    Nepal Journal of Epidemiology eISSN 2091-0800 Research Article Open Access A 13 year hospital based study on the Trend of Urinary Stone Disease in Uttarakhand, India Monica Kakkar1, Rakesh Kakkar2 Abstract: Background: The present retrospective study on urinary stone disease in the Uttarakhand state was necessitated as no study has been done yet. Methods: A 13 year retrospective study (from 2005 to 2018) was conducted on the urinary stones removed from the patients, admitted at Himalayan Institute of Medical Sciences, Dehradun. The incidence of the disease, site of stones in urinary tract upon diagnosis, composition of removed stones and occurrence of a possible co-relationship between the incidence of the urinary stone disease at different times, age, sex, religion of the patients was investigated. Results: The frequency of occurrence of urinary stones in males was found to be almost three times more as compared to their female counterparts. The above trend was consistent over the entire period of the study. Interestingly, in the Muslim and Sikh population of the area, females were found to be less prone to the problem as compared to their Hindu counterparts. However, in all religious groups, 21-40 years old subjects were found to be most susceptible to the problem and approximately 90% of the urinary stones were recovered from the kidneys and primarily composed of calcium oxalate. Conclusion: The co-relationship between the occurrence of urinary stones with age, sex of the patients, their religion & site of stones on diagnosis was found to be statistically significant.
