Recently, the functional aspect as well as morphological aspect of the reserve cells in the cervix uteri drew much attention in view of the carcinogenesis in squamocolumunar junction. In this communication, the authors elucidate the ultrastructural features of the reserve cells in patients of various age groups visiting our university hospital and affiliated hospital.From conventional light microscopic point of view, the reserve cells tend to be pronounced in various pathological conditions, such as the persisting inflammation, proliferative disorders and irritation of hormones. The morphological patterns of the reserve cells from various stage and degree of irritation were observed.

Spermatogenesis was examined in testes from 74 dogs of various breeds without clinically detected testicular disease. A modified Johnsen score system was used to determine whether spermatogenesis deteriorates with ageing. The diameter of seminiferous tubules was measured in dogs without testicular disease to examine other possible effects of ageing on tubular performance. There appeared to be no relation between age and these variables. The influence of testicular tumours on spermatogenesis was also investigated in both affected and unaffected testes. The testes of 28 dogs with clinically palpable tumours and 21 dogs with clinically non-palpable tumours were investigated. In cases of unilateral occurrence of a tumour, impairment of spermatogenesis was observed only in the affected testis of dogs with clinically detected tumours. Bilateral occurrence of tumours, whether detected clinically or non-clinically, was associated with severe impairment of spermatogenesis. The prevalence of tumours increased during ageing. Eighty-six per cent of the clinically detected and 57% of the non-clinically detected tumours were found in old dogs. Multiple types of tumour and bilateral occurrence were very common. Seminomas and Leydig cell tumours were more frequent than Sertoli cell tumours. It was concluded that spermatogenesis per se did not decrease during ageing in dogs but the occurrence of testicular tumours increased with ageing and affected spermatogenesis significantly, as reflected by a lower Johnsen score.

INTRODUCTION:Anemia in elderly population is a frequently diagnosed problem and if it is untreated ,it can lead to impaired functional capacity, poor quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality. In view of high prevelance of anemia in geriatric population,the study was conducted to evaluate the morphological patterns of anemia in elderly population. METHODS:A Prospective observational study was conducted on 100 geriatric patients above 60 years of age,for a period of 3 months.Routine haematological investigations and peripheral smear study was done. RESULTS: In the present study, females were found to be more affected than males and patients in the age group of 60-69 years were affected the most. Normocytic normochromic anemia was the most common morphological type of anemia observed. CONCLUSION: Despite recent diagnostic advances, geriatric anemia remains under reported and inadequately investigated. Determining the morphological type of anemia can help in nding out the etiology and there by aid in proper diagnosis and better patient management.
