Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Non steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are effective anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents and are among the most commonly used classes of medications worldwide. However, their use has been associated with potentially serious dose- dependent gastrointestinal (GI) complications. The risk of GI complications can occur even with short-term NSAID use, and the rate event is linear over time with continued use. OBJECTIVE: To study the patients profile with GI complications occurred due to long-term use of NSAIDs and COXIBs. To identify and determine the risk factors, co-morbidity , illness associated in patients with GI complications. To assess.........

Abstract: Background: Hypertension is one of the leading risk factors for cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and renal disease. Once hypertension is diagnosed, starting antihypertensive therapy on a long term basis along with regular follow up is important. Standardizing treatment guidelines and conducting drug utilization studies at regular intervals help physicians to prescribe drugs rationally. The aim of the study was to assess the drug utilization of antihypertensives in a tertiary care hospital. Method: A cross sectional prospective observational...........

Abstract: Chronic kidney disease is a global health problem facing a high economic cost to health care systems. It is a slow and progressive reduction of kidney function over a period of several years. CKD is having high prevalence, mortality and morbidity rates. Eventually, a person will develop permanent or chronic kidney failure (1). Hemodialysis is the most common method used to treat advanced and chronic kidney failure(2) Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health burden with a high economic cost to health systems Aim: the aim of the study is to "assess the quality.........

Abstract: There is emerging evidence that low birth weight or growth retarded neonates are more prone to manifest diabetes mellitus, hypertension and coronary artery disease in later life. Low birth weight is a major determinant of perinatal illness, disability & death. It accounts for the vast majority & more than 50% of long term neurologic morbidity such as cerebral palsy (Zimmer Gembuck M. & Hefland, m. 1996) Aim - "A study to assess the effectiveness of coconut oil massage among preterm, Low birth weight babies in terms of selected reflexes in selected areas of Bhilai, Chhattisgarh" Results:- The mean Post test reflex score (5.05) was apparently higher than the Pre test reflex score (4.7). The mean difference is (0.55), S.D. (+0.59) and computed........

Abstract: Gene therapy is a treatment modality, which is used to correct the genetic disorder by replacement of correct gene. Gene therapy should be administered for both kind of cell, such as somatic and germinal cell. The viral and non viral methods are used to insert the therapeutic gene. It includes Insertion of therapeutic gene, inhibition of destructive activity or kill the target gene. By gene therapy, one can prevent or recover the various type of diseases such as HIV, cancer, Cystic fibrosis. Even this can prevent the future transmission of disease to the next generation. The technique remains risky and still study is going on to make it safe and effective in future. This therapy is currently being tested only for diseases that have no other cures.

Abstract: This review describe a simple approach to perimortem caesarean section (PMCS) that can be used by a doctor in the resuscitation room or pre hospital environment when faced with a mother of more than 20 weeks of gestation in cardiac arrest. It explores the indication and contraindication to the procedure, the physiological associated factors, equipments needed, protocol for sudden cardiac arrest, causes of maternal cardiac arrest , technical aspects of the procedure and reviews of recent literature on maternal and fetal outcomes. PMCS is essential to give both mother and baby the best chance of survival.

Abstract: L'objectif était d'étudier les critères de gravité des brûlures chez des patients brûlés hospitalisés à l'hôpital militaire d'instruction Mohamed V de Rabat. Il s'agit d'une étude rétrospective qui concernait 160 brûlés hospitalisés de 2015 à 2018. Les variables étudiés étaient: l'âge, le sexe, la surface corporelle brûlée, le degré de la brûlure, la localisation de la brûlure, l'indice de Baux et le score unité de brûlure standard. Ces variables ont étaient analysés par une analyse en composante principale suivie d'une analyse de survie pour déterminer les facteurs influençant la gravité de la brûlure. Parmi les 160 brûlés hospitalisés dans le service, nous avons enregistrés 6 décès. Le taux global de mortalité était 3,75%. L'analyse des données a montrée que la TBSA ≥20%, le sexe, l'unité de brûlure standard ≥ 300, l'indice de Baux ≥ 75 étaient statistiquement associés significativement à la mortalité.

Abstract: COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) causes of death worldwide. Patients experiencing a decrease in the work function of the respiratory muscles can be measured by spirometry, interpretasi spirometry results can be obtained by value Maximal Voluntary Ventilation (MVV), which provide databasic abnormalities in lung function. Descriptive method that describes the demographic data and lung function MVV value. The study was conducted in July s / d August 2018, the sample size of 56 respondents using purposive sampling technique. The results of the study describes the demographics and valuesMaximal Voluntary Ventilation (MVV) ranging from age, education, occupation, body mass index, smoking a long history, the sheer number of cigarettes smoked, and duration of pain COPD. There are demographic data linkage with MVV value in COPD patients.
