At the start of preelampsia there is a failure of cytotrophoblst invasion into the maternal spiral arteries that will lead to decreased uteroplacetal perfusion which will be followed by the failure of the unit fetoplacenter to get enough oxygen from the room intervillous that ultimately lead to a state of hypoxia in placenta. This will cause the expenditure of TNF-α dan IL-1β from placenta and a factors called hypoxia-inducible transcription factors that will spur the trophoblast to produce activin A lot more. This research was conducted by cross sectional method in maternal room of obstetrics and gynecology department of Central General Hospital of Dr. M. Djamil Padang from August 2015 until February 2016 with 20 patients of severe preeclampsia and 20 patients not severe preeclampsia, who met inclusion criteria and there is no exclusion criteria. Then performed statistical analysis using Mann-Whitney test to determine difference in mean maternal activin A serum levels of severe preeclampsia and not severe preeclampsia. The mean maternal serum levels of activin A in severe preeclampsia is 32,55 ± 1,84 ng/ml and in pregnancy with no severe preeclampsia is 8,59 ± 0,59 ng/ ml. Difference in mean maternal serum level of activin A in the two groups was statistically significant (p=0,001). Ma-ternal serum activin A levels is significantly higher in severe preeclampsia than pregnancy with no severe preeclampsia.Keywords: Activin A, severe preeclampsia, not severe preeclampsia

Objective: To compare serum Anti Müllerian Hormone (AMH) levels in infertile women with and without endometriosis, and to determine the mean levels of serum AMH in every stage of endometriosis. Method: We performed a cross-sectional study. Sixty-eight subjects who have undergone laparoscopy and fulfilled both inclusion and exclusion criteria are recruited consecutively. They are divided into two groups, namely group with endometriosis and without endometriosis. Blood samples are taken from each subject before laparoscopy, where serum AMH levels are then measured. The difference in mean levels of each group are tested with Mann-Whitney test. Result: The mean levels of serum AMH were significantly lower in the endometriosis group than those in the group without endometriosis (2.30 1.8 ng/ml vs 3.75 2.13 ng/ml; p=0.005). Using Kruskal-Wallis test, it was found that there was a statistically significant difference among endometriosis groups based on the severity of endometriosis. There was no significant difference in the mean serum AMH levels between the minimal-mild endometriosis group and without endometriosis group (p=0.34), but the mean levels of serum AMH were significantly lower in the moderate-severe endometriosis compare to the group without endometriosis (p

Abstract: World-wide, stroke is a main public health problem. It is one of the leading causes of chronic disability and death. Both hyponatremia and hypernatremia have a negative influence on the outcome of strokes. Hyponatremia is associated with increased mortality and complication rate, meanwhile hypernatremia is often found in the treatment of cerebral oedema in strokes. There are scarce data about natrium level disorders in acute strokes, especially from developing countries. This study aimed to describe the incidence of natrium disorders among acute stroke patients, and the difference of means of natrium based on the severity of the stroke and on GCS at admission. This was a hospital-based cross-sectional study. Samples consisted of 82 patients that met the inclusion criteria. The data of natrium levels were obtained from the hospital medical records. The results showed that the incidence of natrium disorders among acute stroke victims was 30%. The mean natrium level was 138.01 Meq/L (95% CI, 135.83-140.20). The incidence of hyponatremia was 28% while hypernatremia was 2%. There was no difference of mean-natrium-levels based on the severity of strokes (P > 0.05) and of GCS (P > 0.05). Conclusion: The incidence of natrium disorders among acute stroke patients was high but there was no difference between mean natrium levels based on the severity of strokes and of GCS. Keywords: natrium, natrium level disorders, acute stroke.     Abstrak: Stroke termasuk dalam masalah kesehatan utama di masyarakat dan merupakan penyebab utama kecacatan kronik dengan angka mortalitas tertinggi ke-2 di seluruh dunia. Baik hiponatremia maupun hipernatremia memberikan pengaruh negatif terhadap keluaran stroke. Hiponatremia meningkatkan angka kematian dan komplikasi, sedangkan hipernatremia sering terdeteksi bersamaan dengan penanganan edema serebral pada stroke. Data mengenai insidens gangguan kadar natrium pada stroke akut masih sangat kurang, terutama dari negara-negara berkembang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan insidens gangguan kadar natrium pada pasien stroke akut dan deskripsi perbedaan rerata kadar natrium pada berbagai derajat defisit neurologi dan GCS saat masuk rumah sakit. Penelitian ini bersifat potong lintang berbasis rumah sakit dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 82 dan kriteri inklusi tertentu. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan angka insidens gangguan kadar natrium pada stroke akut sebesar 30%. Rerata kadar natrium 138.01 Meq/L (95% CI, 135,83-140,20). Hiponatremia didapatkan pada 28% kasus sedangkan hipernatremia pada 2% kasus stroke akut. Tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna antara rerata kadar natrium berdasarkan beratnya stroke dan GCS (P > 0,05). Simpulan: Insidens gangguan kadar natrium pada stroke akut tinggi. Tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna antara rerata kadar natrium berdasarkan beratnya stroke dan GCS. Kata kunci: natrium, gangguan kadar natrium, stroke akut.

Exudative Pleural Effusion

Pleural effusion is present when there is >15ml of fluid is accumulated in the pleural space. It can be divided into two types; exudative and transudative pleural effusion. Tuberculosis and parapneumonic effusion are the common cause of exudative pleural effusion whereas heart failure accounts for most of the cases of transudative pleural effusion. This study was a hospital based cross sectional study performed at Nepal Medical College during the period of January 2016-December 2016. A total of 50 patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were enrolled. Pleural effusion was confirmed by clinical examination and radiology. After confirmation of pleural effusion, pleural fluid was aspirated and was analysed for protein, LDH, cholesterol. The Heffner criteria was compared with Light criteria to classify exudative or transudative pleural effusion. Among 50 patients, 30 were male and 20 were female. The mean age of patient was 45.4±21.85 years. The sensitivity and specificity of using Light criteria to detect the two type of pleural effusion was 100% and 90.9%, whereas using Heffner criteria was 94.87%, 100% respectively(P<0.01). There are variety of causes for development of pleural effusion and no one criteria is definite to differentiate between exudative or transudative effusion. In this study Light criteria was more sensitive whereas Heffner criteria was more specific to classify exudative pleural effusion. Hence a combination of criteria might be useful in case where there is difficulty to identify the cause of pleural effusion.

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to compare working length calculated with conventional radiographs and an electronic apex locator (IPEX II) during the root canal treatment of mandibular anterior teeth. METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional study was done in the Department of Operative Dentistry, Sardar Begum Dental Hospital, Peshawar during February and March 2018. A consecutive sampling technique was used for sampling. Only 30 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria of our study. Detailed medical and dental history was taken. Only patient fulfilling inclusion criteria were enrolled in the study. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. RESULTS: The mean age for patients was 45.33±5.16. 33% out of 30 patients (10) were male and 20 were females. The mean working length calculated from radiographs was 22.25±1.29 (min 20.09-max 24.10). The mean working length calculated by the electronic apex locator (IPEX II) was 22.17±1.28 (min 20.00-max 24.07). The mean difference between working length calculated by radiograph and electronic apex locator was -0.084mm, which means the working length determined by radiographs and by electronic apex locator has no difference in mandibular anterior teeth with single canals. CONCLUSION: Both the methods can be used effectively in endodontics for single-rooted mandibular teeth, but if both are used in combinations can lead to an improvement in the working length accuracy, which may significantly reduce the number of radiographs exposure, and increase the success and comfort for endodontic patients.

Background: Since a long time ago, the experts have realized that determination of cut-off point for diagnosing diabetes will be revised over time with the lower blood glucose level as the more sensitive diagnosis for detecting the occurring complication and biochemical changes.Methods: This cross sectional study was carried out in the department of medicine, M.G.M. Medical College and M.Y. Hospital Indore from July, 2016 to August, 2017 in 200 individuals and patients having euglycemic status attending General Medicine OPD.Results: In the low and high normal group 2 (2.0%) and 8 (8.0%) were having abnormal total cholesterol (TC) level respectively. The mean total cholesterol in the low normal group was 117.16±26.94mg/dl and it was 154.74±28.38mg/dl in the high normal group. The difference was found to be statistically significant (p value 0.000). In the low and high normal group, 4 (4.0%) and 17 (17.0%) were having abnormal triglyceride (TG) levels respectively. The mean TG levels in the low and high normal group were 96.93±22.64mg/dl and 110.55±32.37mg/dl respectively. The difference was found to be statistically significant (p value 0.001). In the low and high normal group, 6 (6.0%) and 14 (14.0%) patient was having abnormal uric acid levels respectively. The mean uric acid levels in the low and high normal group was 4.88±1.10mg/dl and 5.31±1.31mg/dl respectively. The difference was found to be statistically significant (p value 0.013).Conclusions: Higher levels of Cholesterol and Triglycerides were found more commonly in high normal euglycemic group compared to low normal euglycemic group. Mean cholesterol and mean triglyceride levels were higher in high normal euglycemic group.

Abstract Objective This study sought to determine if there was a difference in the months of oral contraception prescribed by physicians living in U.S. states with a 12-month supply policy compared to physicians in states without a policy. Methods We conducted an exploratory descriptive study using a convenience sample of Obstetrics & Gynecology resident physicians (n=275) in the United States. Standard bivariate analyses were used to compare the difference between groups. Results Few physicians in both groups (3.8% with a policy and 1.4% without a policy) routinely prescribed a 12-month supply of contraception. The mean coverage prescribed by providers in states with and without a policy was 2.81 and 2.07 months (p<0.05). Conclusions The majority of physicians were unaware of 12-month contraceptive supply policies and unable to correctly write a prescription for 12-months of contraception, regardless of whether they lived in a state with a 12-month contraceptive supply policy. Physician education may be needed to effectively implement 12-month contraceptive supply policies.

Exposure to lead-based paints is a major threat to the health of painters. This study aimed to evaluate the blood concentration of lead (Pb) in painters of buildings and cars. The present study was a cross-sectional study in which a semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect the socio-demographic information. Lead concentration in blood samples was determined using the atomic absorption spectrometry method. A total of 32 male painters were selected based on inclusion criteria. The mean blood lead level (BLL) in the painters was 8.1 ± 4.93 μg/dL. Pb levels in car and building painters were 9.42 ± 5.5 μg/dL and 6.7 ± 1.85 μg/dL, respectively. Pb concentration in none of the blood samples was more than 30 μg/dL. The prevalence of BLL ≥ 5 μg/dL and BLL ≥ 10 μg/dL was 97% and 19%, respectively. According to the findings, the rate of BLL among car painters was higher than building painters. Considering the presence of Pb in all blood samples, it seems necessary to increase the awareness of painters about the adverse effects of lead exposure even in low concentrations. However, the sample size in this study was small and more investigations are required in this regard.
