Background: The tracheobronchial tree is a branched distribution system that carries air from the trachea down to the acini which are the gas exchange units of the lung. In the trachea air speed is high and the airway is particularly vulnerable to obstruction by foreign bodies and tumors. The study of the morphological variations of luminal diameter of the trachea is of profound clinical importance as it may help the clinicians for smooth conduction of some maneuvers like endotracheal intubation and bronchoscopic procedure. It also helps the surgeons to deal with resection and reconstruction of the trachea.Objective: The present study was carried out to establish a Bangladeshi standard regarding the luminal diameter of the trachea and to minimize the dependency on foreign standards.Materials and Methods: This cross sectional descriptive study was performed on 70 post mortem human trachea (44 male and 26 female) to find out the difference in luminal diameter of the trachea of Bangledeshi people in relation to age and sex. The specimens were collected from the morgue in the department of Forensic Medicine, Mymensingh Medical College, Mymensingh by purposive sampling technique. All specimens were grouped into three groups according to age ? Group A, B and C. Dissection was performed according to standard autopsy techniques. The trachea was cut horizontally through the upper border of the 5th tracheal ring and the luminal diameter was measured. The average diameter was expressed in centimeter. All data were recorded in the predesigned data sheet and statistical analysis was done using computer based statistical package, SPSS to evaluate the significance of variance between the different findings.Results: In the present study the maximum luminal diameter of the trachea was 1.65 in Group A, 2.05 in Group B and 1.85 cm in Group C. The minimum luminal diameter of the trachea was 0.7 cm in Group A, 0.85 cm in Group B and in Group C 0.85 cm. The mean (±SD) luminal diameter of the trachea was 1.24 ± 0.3, 1.39 ± 0.3 and 1.29 ± 0.23 cm in Group A, B and C respectively. The maximum mean luminal diameter of the trachea was in Group B (1.39 cm) and minimum was in Group A (1.24 cm). The mean difference of luminal diameter of the trachea between groups was statistically non significant at p>0.5 level. The maximum mean (±SD) luminal diameter of the trachea was 1.50 ± 0.3 cm in male in Group B and minimum mean (±SD) luminal diameter of the trachea was 1.17 ± 0.26 cm in female in Group C. The mean luminal diameter of the male trachea was found to be greater than that of the female trachea among the age group. Mean difference between sexes in Group B was statistically highly significant at p<0.001 level but not significant in Group A and C.Conclusions: The study would help to increase the information pool on the luminal diameter of the trachea of Bangladeshi people.J Enam Med Col 2017; 7(3): 146-150

Introduction and Aim: Cricket is one of the most popular game in India played by men and women of all ages. Core stability is defined as the ability to control the position and movement of the trunk over the pelvis to allow optimum production, transfer and control of force and movement to the terminal segment. Major muscles involved are pelvic floor muscles, Transverse abdominis, multifidus, internal and external obliques, and rectus abdominis. Core is used to stabilize the thorax and the pelvis during dynamic movement. The study helps to compare the effectiveness of Swiss ball exercise and Pilates exercise on gaining core muscle strength. The aim of the study is to compare the effect of Swiss ball exercise and Pilates exercise on core muscle strengthening in college cricketers. Materials and Methods: The design of the study is comparative type. The study was carried out in faculty of Physiotherapy, Dr.M.G.R. Educational and Research Institute. The study sample of 30 male college cricketers between the age group of 18 to 25 years are included in the study. Individuals with associated neuromuscular conditions, any injuries to lower limbs and any spinal injuries have been excluded in the study. Swiss ball and Pilates mat are the materials used. Sphygmomanometer is the outcome measure.30 male individuals between the age group of 18 to 25 years were divided into two groups, group A and group B. Individuals in the group A (n=15) received the Swiss ball exercise and group B (n=15) received Pilates exercise for 4 session/ week for 6 weeks. Results: On comparing the mean values of group A and group B on double leg lowering test (DLLT), it shows significant decrease in the post test mean values but (group B- Pilates exercise) shows (30.60) which has the lower mean value is more effective than (group A- Swiss ball exercise) (46.80) at P ? 0.001. Hence, null hypothesis is rejected. Conclusion: The study concluded that both the group was effective but while comparing Pilates exercise showed the potential treatment option than swiss ball exercise. Hence, Pilates exercise was effective on core muscle strengthening in college cricketers. Keywords: Swiss ball; Pilates mat; core muscle; sphygmomanometer.

Background : Diabetes mellitus is one of the important risk factors for coronary artery disease. The hemoglobin A1c is used for evaluating glycemic control in diabetic patients. Here, we conducted the study to evaluate the relationship between HbA1c level and severity of coronary artery disease among the hospitalized patients with ACS. Materials & Methods : This cross sectional study was conducted in the department of Cardiology, Ibrahim Cardiac Hospital & Research Institute, Dhaka, Bangladesh from September 2015 to December 2015. Total of one hundred patients were studied and they were grouped on the basis of their glycaemic status. One hundred patients with acute coronary syndrome were enrolled in this study. Out of them fifty were diabetic (HbA1c>6.5%) and rest of were nondiabetics (HbA1c<6.5%) ( group-A and B). Results: Out of one hundred patients fifty eight were male and fourty two were female. Mean age of patients in group-A was 58.54±10.22 years and mean age of patients in group-B was 54.52±13.69 years. Mean age of male and female was 57.72±11.48 years and 54.0±13.08 years respectively. Mean HbA1c of patients in group-A was 11.43±1.43% and group-B was 6.34±0.915%. 38% of group-A and 22% of group-B had triple vessel disease, 26% of group-A and 20% of group- B had double vessel disease and 28% of group-A and 18% of group-B had single vessel disease, and 8% of group-A and 40% of group-B had normal coronary arteries. 48% patients of age group 46-50 in group-A had more incidence in coronary artery disease than other age group which was statistically significant ( p=0.035). 61-75 years age group in group-B patients had coronary artery disease than other age groups which was statistically not significant(p=0.084). Patients of group-A was significantly relation with coronary artery disease (p>.001) and six times greater coronary artery disease than patients of group-B (OR= 6.15, 95% CI for OR =2.074 -18.289). Conclusions: In this way the importance of appropriate glycaemic control has been emphasized in diabetic patients. This study showed the relation between HbA1c levels and the severity of CAD in patient with type-II diabetes mellitus .Our findings demonstrate that elevated HbA1c level was risk factor for severity of coronary artery disease in ACS patients.
