Abstract: Introduction: Uric acid is the most abundant of antioxidant in plasma.Hyperuricemia associated withblood glucose reflects the role of hyperglycemia in the production of oxidative stress in the Type II DM patients.Material and Methods:Total 150 subjects were studied and divided into three groups, depending upon their glycosylated hemoglobin level:-Group 1 (Normal subjects): 50 patients with HbA1c level <6%, Group 2 (Well controlled diabetes): 50 patients with HbA1c level 6-8% and Group 3 (Poorly controlled diabetes): 50 patients with HbA1c level >8%.Serum uric acid levels were measured using Uricase-PAP Method.Results: High uric acid levels were found in poorly controlled group (7.12±0.57), compared to normal (1.96±0.52) and well controlled group (4.71±0.29), which is statistically........

Abstract: Present study attempted to focus on the existence of coliform, fecal contamination and others pathogenic microorganisms in tap water as well as the effects of halo-tab plus as disinfectant to reduce the growth of water born microorganisms. Total 11 tap water samples are collected from different household and restaurant in Dhaka city Bangladesh. Elevated number of fecal coliforms, Klebsiellaspp., Salmonella spp., Shigellaspp., Vibrio spp. and Pseudomonas spp. was monitored among the tap water. The heterotrophic bacteria was present within the range of 102 to 108cfu/ml. Most of the isolates were found to be resistant against ampicillin (10 μg),.........

Abstract: Background: - Thyroid function tests which include TSH, free and total T3, T4, are the gold standard biochemical tests till date in the diagnosis of Thyroid disorders. But variations have been observed in the values due to the influence of different drugs and other associated conditions such as Heparin, Amiodarone, Phenylbutazone, Salicylates, etc. Another topic of debate is the reference range of TSH as it has feedback regulation with T3, T4 values. Cystatin C is a potent cysteine protease inhibitor involved in the catabolism of proteins. Serum concentration of Cystatin C is independent of age, body weight, gender and are not influenced by inflammatory, rheumatologic conditions........
Key Words: TSH, T3, T4, Cystatin C, GFR, ANOVA, Pearson correlation
