The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is an effective pest control method developed worldwide against many species of Fruit Flies. It involves the release of male insects sterilized, at pupae instar, by exposure to ionizing radiation.  The Area-wide control of medfly (Ceratitis capitata), with SIT based on sterile males release combined to other control techniques, was implemented since 2017 as a pilot area in Moulouya Perimeter in North-eastern Morocco. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of this tool in controlling Medfly and estimate sterile male population densities from data collected from trap catches after the release of a pre-determined number of sterile males in five Citrus orchards (0, 500, 1000 and 3000 sterile males per hectare) and the calculation of FTD (fly/trap/day) of sterile and wild males. The result showed that the percentage of recaptured males and FTD Sterile indices were related to release density by power function regression, while the sterile to wild ratio and release density were linear regression-adjusted. The finding confirmed the effectiveness of release in reducing the fly population in the TIS area by reducing the rate of citrus infestation in field and export shipments.

Background: The earlier studies which were conducted across the world on long bones to know the age reveal that there is no uniform sequence for the epiphyseal union of long bones in different countries or different places in the same country. To ascertain this in Central Karnataka, India present study was done.Methods: A radiological study of lower end of Humerus was conducted on total 100 boys of age group 11–20 years from different schools and colleges of Chitradurga district of central Karnataka, India. The radiographs were studied in detail and the findings were recorded.Results: Fusion of epiphyseal centre of lateral epicondyle with that of Capitulum was seen between 12–15 years. Fusion of epiphyseal centre of Capitulum with that of Trochlea was seen between 12–15 years. Fusion of conjoint epiphysis with the shaft was seen between 12–16 years. Fusion of epiphyseal centre of medial epicondyle with shaft was seen between 14-17 years.Conclusions: In general, fusion of epiphysis occurs around 12-17 years.

Abstract ObjectivesThe incidence of malignancy related pleural effusions (MPE) is increasing. MPE carry significant morbidity and mortality. Indwelling pleural catheters (IPCs) have become the cornerstone in management and are supported by established international guidance. Large case reviews add to the evidence base regarding safety and efficacy. Methods168 patients had an IPC insertion between January 2012 and December 2018 in a large pleural centre in the North East of England. Data on outcomes and complications were obtained from the patients’ notes, electronic records, laboratory, and radiographic findings. Descriptive statistical methodology was applied. Results168 IPCs were inserted in a predominantly male population by experienced pleural practitioners. Overall complication rate is 13% and the incidence of any individual complications such as infection, metastatic seeding, drain displacement and loculations are much less than previously quoted in the literature. ConclusionThis case review adds to the large body of evidence that IPCs are safe and have minimal complications in the palliation of symptoms of malignant pleural effusion.
