Background: Pharmacovigilance knowledge and training in post graduate student doctors is key factor for proper implementation of PvPI. Often the dentists and physiotherapists who are also one of the main stakeholders for ADR reporting are neglected for training and knowledge regarding pharmacovigilance. This study was planned to evaluate the knowledge and awareness of pharmacovigilance in post graduate students in tertiary care centre in Indore.Methods: It was a single point cross sectional questionnaire-based study conducted in a tertiary care Institute MGM Medical College and M.Y. Hospital in the state of Madhya Pradesh at Indore. It was conducted among post graduate student doctors from dentistry and physiotherapy. Total of 55 questionnaires were distributed, 50 of them were returned back and were analysed.Results: Overall knowledge level was average. 90% knew about ADR while 80% were aware about PVPI. 10% knew about local AMC at Indore while only 04% knew global centre for Pharmacovigilance is at Sweden Uppsala. 88% thought Med watch as global database for ADR against only 12% knew its Vigibase. 90% thought ADR reporting is necessary. 96% thought it should be included in UG curriculum. 98% had not reported any ADR till date while 84% had not seen an ADR form.Conclusions: Post graduate doctors are the prime candidates to impart the importance of pharmacovigilance. The study strongly suggested that there was a great need to create awareness and impart training among the post graduate doctors to improve the reporting of ADRs.

Folliculitis Decalvans

<p class="abstract">Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp (EPDS) has been reported as a rare chronic and progressive non-infectious inflammatory condition of the actinically damaged scalp characterized by crusts, erosions and pustules. It tends to occur on the scalp of older people who have usually been treated for diffuse actinic damage and actinic keratoses. The list of possible differential diagnosis is long and includes tinea capitis, folliculitis decalvans, neutrophilic dermatosis, autoimmune vesiculobullous disorders, malignancy etc. Notoriously difficult to treat, these cases tend to be chronic and progressive. These patients often present after repeated treatment to various scalp dermatosis that doesn’t result in clearing instead persistence and perpetuation of the process. A cross sectional prospective study was conducted in department of dermatology in a tertiary care centre in which six cases of EPDS attending outpatient department from 2017 to 2019 were included. EPDS is more common but under recognized condition, hence less cases are reported till date. Increased awareness of and proper diagnosis of this condition changes the approach towards these patients, protects the scalp from involuntary insults and other precipitating factors that hinders with a better outcome.</p>

BACKGROUND- Psoriasis is chronic common papulosquamous disorder. Its aetiology included various environmental and genetic factors. In genetics, HLA-Cw6 is most commonly associated with psoriasis. Childhood psoriasis is also common in worldwide population. However, very few studies done on epidemiological data and HLA-Cw6 analysis in childhood psoriasis patients. AIMS AND OBJECTIVE- Clinicoepidemiological study of childhood psoriasis patients and its association with HLA-Cw6 in a tertiary care centre of Eastern India MATERIALAND METHOD- We conducted a cross-sectional study in a tertiary care centre and recruited 20 patients of psoriasis with age group below 18 years after taking proper consent. Clinical history and blood was taken from them and HLA-Cw6 analysis was done by PCR method. Data compilation was done by Microsoft excel using SPSS software. RESULTS- A total of the 20 childhood psoriasis patients, 9 were males and 11 were females. Generalized plaque type psoriasis (N=19) is commonest followed by guttate psoriasis (N=1). None of the patients had arthalgia. Family history was present in only 3 patients. Higher numbers of childhood psoriasis patients (N=14) were positive for HLA-Cw6. Also Higher numbers of females (N=10) were positive for HLA-Cw6. ve patients had nail changes. CONCLUSION- We found HLA-Cw6 is strongly associated with childhood psoriasis and also HLA-Cw6 frequency is higher in female than male childhood psoriasis patients.
