  • Assalamu Alaykom Wa Rahmatollahy Wa Barakatoh It Is a Great Pleasure
    In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful Address by DR HUSSEIN A. GEZAIRY REGIONAL DIRECTOR WHO EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN REGION to the SPECIAL CONVOCATION, BAQAI MEDICAL UNIVERSITY, AND THIRD CONVOCATION OF BAQAI MEDICAL AND DENTAL COLLEGES FOR THE AWARD OF DEGREES BY THE UNIVERSITY OF KARACHI Karachi, Pakistan, 23 February 2001 Your Excellency the President of Pakistan, Your Excellency the Governor of Sindh, Your Excellency the Vice-Chancellor of Baqai Medical University, Dear colleagues, members of the faculty staff, Students and parents, Ladies and gentlemen Assalamu Alaykom wa Rahmatollahy wa Barakatoh It is a great pleasure to be included among this august gathering, headed by His Excellency the President of Pakistan, and to share with you 2 this joyful occasion. I am deeply grateful to have been chosen for the honour of receiving the degree of Doctorate in Sciences from your esteemed university. Since its first batch of students enrolled in 1988, Baqai Medical College, later Baqai Medical University, has been highly regarded by WHO Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean. The innovative community-oriented programme adopted by the college was one of the earliest initiatives towards the reform of medical education in Pakistan. The push for reform in medical colleges all over the world has stemmed from growing awareness of the drawbacks and shortcomings of the existing system of medical education. Curriculum change is necessary when there is a lack of relevant medical response to community needs. Effective and relevant training methods are needed, and must be selected and implemented in accordance with current evidence-based education. Such learning strategies need to address competency in work as well as lifelong learning in order to deal with the fast-moving developments in medical professions.

Surgery, Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre, Karachi, PAK Corresponding author: Batool Zehra Asjad, [email protected] Abstract Breast tuberculosis (TB) is rare among extrapulmonary tuberculosis cases, and the diagnosis is usually preceded by a high index of suspicion and findings of granulomatous lesions. We conducted this study to evaluate different clinical presentations of breast TB, including its diagnosis and association with lactation. We also examined the association of breast TB with TB elsewhere in the body and contact history. This prospective, descriptive study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in Karachi, Pakistan from March 2017 to March 2019. The study population consisted of 100 women of age ranging from 30 to 39 years after 10 patients were lost to follow-up. After providing informed written consent and a histopathology or culture report, participants completed a proforma. We used IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 22.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY) to analyze the data, which were kept confidential. Twenty-four patients had diabetes, while 36 patients had no comorbidities. The most consistent symptoms were breast pain (98%), breast lump (89%), fever (83%), and discharge (45%).

  • Complications of Obesity in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Insulin Resistance and Inflammation
    Complications of Obesity in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Insulin Resistance and Inflammation ORIGINAL ARTICLE Complications of Obesity in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Insulin Resistance and Inflammation Sadaf Saleem Uppal1, Abdul Khaliq Naveed2, Asifa Majeed3, Mazhar Shafiq4, Kiran Namoos1, Saeeda Baig5 1Department of Biochemistry, Shalamar Medical and Dental College, Lahore, 2Department of Biochemistry, CMH Lahore Medical College, 3Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Army Medical College, Rawalpindi, 4Department of Radiology, CMH Kohat, 5Department of Biochemistry, Ziauddin University, Karachi, Pakistan. ABSTRACT Background: The polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), a well-known endocrine-metabolic disease, is caused by the interaction of environmental, genetic and metabolic factors. A cross-sectional, comparative study was planned to evaluate high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), insulin and lipid profile in non-obese and obese PCOS patients. Methods: Seventy-two women diagnosed with PCOS as per Rotterdam criteria, were placed in three groups in accordance with the body mass index: Group 1 (normal weight), Group 11 (overweight), and Group 111 (obese). Blood glucose, hs-CRP, serum insulin, lipid profile was estimated and insulin resistance was calculated. Data was analyzed using version 20 of SPSS. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare the numeric variables among three groups of PCOS women and p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Significantly, higher levels of insulin (13.03 ± 0.22), triglyceride (1.74 ± 0.96) and hs-CRP (7.24±4.11) were detected in obese PCOS women. The levels of fasting blood glucose (4.61±0.54) were also raised. Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) (2.69±0.79) showed insulin resistance in obese PCOS women (p=0.004).
