Abstract: A randomized placebo controlled single blind study was conducted to compare the effects of bolus doses of metoprolol and esmolol heart rate ,systolic blood pressure and rate pressure product during laryngoscopy and intubation.60 patients of ASA I and II randomly received placebo or study group(1 mg/kg of esmolol) or 80 μg/kg of metoprolol in 20 ml normal saline.Heart rate,systolic b.p were recorded serially after study drug , before induction,during laryngoscopy and intubation and1/2min,1min,11/2 min ,2 min each minute till parameters reach baseline or 20 minutes whichever is earlier. Rate pressure product was calculated and statistically evaluated in all 3 groups..............

Abstract: Thirty participants of SGT University Budhera, Gurgaon (Haryana) India including anesthesiologists, surgeons and paramedical staff were surveyed by giving a structured questionnaire regarding their preference for small or large surgical incision for laparotomy and for finding reasons for their preference for a particular incision. Most participants were in favor of small surgical incision. The most common reason for their preference was better cosmetic results.

Abstract: Introduction:Epilepsy describes a condition in which a person has recurrent seizures due to chronic underlying process. Epilepsy refers to a clinical phenomenon than a single disease entity, since there are many forms and causes of epilepsy. Objective:Toanalyse the etiological agents of late onset epilepsy. Method:Data for the study was collected from patients with epilepsy admitted in Department of Medicine at R.I.M.S RANCHI. Total of 60 patients were included in this study and their detailed etiological analysis was done. Conclusion:Neurocysticercosis was the most common cause of late onset epilepsy at R.I.M.S, RANCHI in this study.

Abstract: This was a clinical descriptive study of congenital malformations in new born in a tertiary level hospital in north-east India from the period 1st January 2015 to 30th April, 2016. Out of 14912 births, 159 had congenital malformation making an incidence of 1.06%. The incidence was more in males, in preterm babies, and more in stillborn. Oligohydramnios was associated with the highest risk of congenital malformation. The most common congenital malformation was cleft lip followed by CTEV.

Abstract: Antimicrobial Resistant (AMR) is rapidly increasing across the globe. This increasing number of reports on continued emergence of resistance to antimicrobial drugs makes the physicians to know periodic monitoring of the emergence of resistance in the microorganisms in their local area. Development of resistance is not only in bacteria and also in some fungus. This study was conducted at the Central laboratory of Medical Microbiology, Al-khoms teaching hospital, Al- Khoms, Libya. Bacteria and fungi were isolated from the samples arrived to the laboratory. Frequently isolated bacteria and fungi were taken for this study............

Abstract: The successful replacement of lost natural teeth by tooth root analogues is a major advancement in the field of dentistry. The success greatly depends on adequate integration of these implants within the bone. This bone-implant integration is known as osseointegration. The science of osseointegration has widened the scope of treatment options for edentulous patients.

Abstract: The absent of antimicrobial properties in composite resin was partly ascribed to the recurrent caries therefore the resin composite plus antimicrobial activity be useful to prevention of the secondary caries which frequently are seen around the restorations. Aim of the present study is evaluating the effectiveness of ZnO nanoparticles incorporating into composite resin as antimicrobial agent against bacteria causing dental caries in oral cavity. This study examined the antibacterial effects of the nanoparticles zinc oxide as inorganic antibacterial agent on pathogenic bacteria associated with oral infectious disease, in which the bactericide of ZnO/NPs was immobilized.........

Abstract: Health as defined by WHO 1 ―is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity‖. Similarly health system, also sometimes referred to as health care system or healthcare system, is the organization of people, institutions, and resources that deliver health care services to meet the health needs of target populations. Patient satisfaction is a critical health care outcome indicator and should be given focus by the hospital administrators. From a management perspective, patient satisfaction with health care is important for several reasons 2 . First, satisfied patients are more likely to maintain a consistent relationship with a specific provider. Second, by identifying sources of patient dissatisfaction, an organization can address system weaknesses

Abstract: Introduction: The increased overjet in Class II Division 1 malocclusion subjects may be due to hyperdivergent growth pattern or Bolton's tooth size discrepancy. The aim of this investigation was to find the rational factor for overjet in Class II Division 1 malocclusion as growth pattern or Bolton's discrepancy in these subjects. Methods: 120 untreated Class II Division 1 cases who reported to the department for orthodontic treatment were included in this study. The lateral cephalometric radiographs were evaluated for growth pattern and grouped into vertical and horizontal growers. The Bolton's ratio and overjet was measured from the study models obtained...............

Abstract: La sarcoïdose est une maladie inflammatoire granulomateuse. L'atteinte thyroïdienne est exceptionnellement isolée et rarement confirmée histologiquement. Il s'agit le plus souvent d'une atteinte purement morphologique: goitre simple ou nodule bénin. Les anomalies fonctionnelles sont plus rares : thyroïdites, hypothyroïdie. Nous rapportons le cas d'une patiente âgée de 52 ans qui présente une sarcoïdose thyroïdienne déclarée par un goitre euthyroïdien et confirmé à l'examen anatomopathologique.
