Background: Many methods are available for committing suicide. Hanging is one of the methods to committee suicide. The incidence of hanging for committing suicide is increasing. This is a retrospective study carried out at KDN Gohil Hospital, Navsari (Gujarat) to know about the outcome of this type of suicidal attempts and to review the management of such type of patients. Management of this type of injury is not found in many standard textbooks, so this small study will help to compare mortality rate and management protocol with other larger studies.Methods: All patients with history of hanging and accidental strangulation were brought to hospital, after they were released from strangulating agent were included in this study. Various aspects of agents used for hanging, the characteristic findings and management protocol of the patients were studied retrospectively.Results: Results in the form of survival rate and occurrence of complications. Out of 30 patients 24 patients survived and 6 died. Non had cervical spine injury. One patient had laryngeal injury and developed laryngeal stenosis.Conclusions: Suicidal hanging is different from judicial hanging. Most of the time suicidal hanging survival are high; once the patient is brought to the hospital alive in time. Early endotracheal intubations, management of hypotension, ventilator support and anti-oedema drugs are main steps of management.

Insight Into

North- East India is an under veiled region with an awe-inspiring landscape, different groups of ethnic people, their culture and heritage. Contemporary writers from this region aspire towards a vision outside the tapered ethnic channel, and they represent a shared history. In their writings, the cultural memory is showcased, and the intensity of feeling overflows the labour of technique and craft. Mamang Dai presents a rare glimpse into the ecology, culture, life of the tribal people and history of the land of the dawn-lit mountains, Arunachal Pradesh, through her novel The Legends of Pensam. The word ‘Pensam’ in the title means ‘in-between’,  but it may also be interpreted as ‘the hidden spaces of the heart’. This is a small world where anything can happen. Being adherents of the animistic faith, the tribes here believe in co-existence with the natural world along with the presence of spirits in their forests and rivers. This paper attempts to draw an insight into the culture and gender of the Arunachalis with special reference to The Legends of Pensam by Mamang Dai.

Insight Into

The reviewed work is devoted to a significant, and yet little-studied in both national and foreign scholarship, issue of the clergy interactions with German occupational authorities on the territory of the USSR in the days of the Great Patriotic War. It introduces into scientific use historically significant complex of documents (1941-1945) from the archive of the Office of the Metropolitan Sergius (Voskresensky) of Vilnius and Lithuania, patriarchal exarch in Latvia and Estonia, and also records from the investigatory records on charges against clergy and employees concerned in the activities of the Pskov Orthodox Mission (1944-1990). Documents included in the publication are stored in the archives of Moscow, St. Petersburg, Estonia, Lithuania, Leningrad, Novgorod, and Pskov regions. They allow some insight into nature, forms, and methods of the Nazi occupational regime policies in the conquered territories (including policies towards the Church). The documents capture religious policies of the Nazis and inner life of the exarchate, describe actual situation of population and clergy, management activities and counterinsurgency on the occupied territories. The documents bring to light connections between the exarchate and German counterintelligence and reveal the nature of political police work with informants. They capture the political mood of population and prisoners of war. There is information on participants of partisan movement and underground resistance, on communication net between the patriarchal exarchate in the Baltic states and the German counterintelligence. Reports and dispatches of the clergy in the pay of the Nazis addressed to the Metropolitan Sergius (Voskresensky) contain detailed activity reports. Investigatory records contain important biographical information and personal data on the collaborators. Most of the documents, being classified, have never been published before.
