Today in the era of information and technology the whole scenario has been changed. Women have a multidimensional attitude and enjoy special place in the society by reaching all kinds of heights by their spectacular physical and mental performance in almost all possible fields. Problems of different age group of women are still present and the most suffering age group is forty plus due to change in reproductive life by cessation of menstruation causing untoward physical and mental agonies called menopause. Every woman faces various physiological and psychological changes during this change as part of hormonal de arrangement. The presence of regular menstruation indicates the starting of reproductive life of women and menopause indicates the declining fertility rate of female. Rajonivritti word is made up of two different words viz., ‘Rajah and Nivritti Rajah denoted as Aartava (menstrual blood) Nivritti as Uprama (cessation). In Ayurveda this phenomenon taken in different way not as a serious health problem. As Sushruta mentioned that menopause deals with Jarapakvya avastha of the body. Sometimes such disturbances attain the stage of disease or syndrome called Menopausal Syndromes accompanied by various vasomotor, psychological, genital, locomoter and G.I.T related symptoms.

Umbilical Endometriosis

Endometriosis is the commonest gynaecological problem; it affects 7 to 10% women in reproductive age group. Commonest site being the pelvic organs, extrapelvic presentation in almost all parts of the body have been reported. However umbilical endometriosis has been reported in more than one hundred cases. It was first described by Villar in 1886. Umbilical endometriosis accounts for only 0.5% to 1% of all endometriosis cases. Most of the reported cases occurred in the scar following gynaecological and obstetrical surgery. A few cases of primary umbilical endometriosis have been reported. We report such a rare case of primary umbilical endometriosis and the diagnosis was done by FNAC & the patient underwent wide local excision.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cmoshmcj.v13i1.19426

Abstract: Sudden death, especially among children, can occur due to aspiration or the swallowing of foreign objects. Foreign objects in human organs are any kind of matter that comes from outside or inside the body, which normally is not present in these organs. This was a retrospective and descriptive  study and was aimed to determine the incidence of cases of foreign objects in the ear, nose, or throat found in the Ear, Nose, and Throat - Head and Neck Department, Faculty of Medicine, University of Sam Ratulangi, Manado, from January 2008 through December 2011 in which there were 482 cases. The results showed that the highest number of cases was in 2010 (163 cases, 33.81%), followed by 2009, 2011, and 2008. Male and female cases were 61.82% and 38.18% respectively. Cases in the age group 0-10 years were 218 (45.22%), followed by the age groups: >51 years, 41-50 years, 21-30 years, 31-40 years, and 11-20 years. The most usual anatomic locations of the foreign objects were the external auditory canal (58.29%), followed by the nose, pharynx, esophagus, larynx and bronchus. Successful extractions of the foreign objects occured in 99.17% cases. Conclusion: The highest number of cases was in 2010, being more frequent in males. The most vulnerable age group was 0-10 years, and the most usual anatomic location of the foreign objects was the external auditory canal. Successful extractions of foreign objects occured in almost all cases.

Background: Filariasis is still a serious health problem in Indonesia. One of the endemic areas is Demak, which implemented a mass drug administration (MDA) elimination programme in 2016. However, filariasis was still found in 2017–18. Purpose: This research aims to describe the distribution of filariasis and coverage of filariasis MDA in Demak. Method: A case series based on people, time, and place was used as the design of this research. The research was conducted in May–June 2019 using secondary data obtained from the Health Office of Demak based on the results of the MDA programme in the community. The target population of this research comprised residents of Demak from 2016 to 2018. The variables researched were filariasis cases based on gender, age, region, year of MDA implementation, and MDA coverage, which were described based on univariate and spatial analysis. Result: There were 23 filariasis cases in Demak during 2016–18, most of which occurred in the age group 46–60 (39.10%) and in women (60.90%); they occurred in almost all subdistricts of Demak. The MDA coverage of filariasis has reached the target (>85%), but there is one particular area that has decreased MDA coverage where some cases are found each year. Conclusion: Provision of MDA was carried out in 2016–18 but cases of filariasis are still being reported; also, one of these areas has been decreasing its MDA coverage every year.

Introduction:  Diabetes is one of the most prevalent metabolic chronic diseases due to the imbalance production of insulin. One of the studies reported that in 2010 worldwide 285 million adults had diabetes and this figure may be increase to 439 million by the year 2030. Globally Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) constitute major health problem in people that significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality in diabetes patients. Approximate 1.0% to 4.1% of the annual population-based incidences of a diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) were reported. Due to this the lifetime may be as high as 25%. In Asian countries diabetic foot ulcer are major problems which are different from European countries or developing countries.  From many studies reported diabetic foot problems in India are infectious and neuropathic in nature as compared to developed countries. According to World Health Organization (WHO) diabetic foot is defined as lower limb of a diabetic patient characterized by infection, potential risk of pathologic consequences ulceration or destruction of deep tissues associated with neurological abnormalities, various changes in peripheral neuropathy vasculopathy and superimposed infection that are mainly responsible foot ulceration. Ulcers are one kind of abscess which is difficult to treat because of poor wound healing that result from a combination of neuropathy, ischemia and hyperglycemia.  Aim: The main objective was to study the outcome of treatment modalities and it’s relating factors to complication in diabetic foot ulcer.  Material and method:  Total 60 diabetic foot ulcer patients with the age range from 20 to 70 years were included.  From all the patients’ detailed past and present history were recorded.  For all the patients, general, physical and local and systemic examinations were also done. Detail   laboratory examination like Fasting and Post Prandial Blood sugar levels, blood count, ECG, ESR, complete urine examination for the presence of ketone bodies and sugar, x-ray as well as culture and sensitivity of the discharge from ulcer were also done. Patients were treated with various treatment methods like conservative treatment, split skin grafting and amputation. Result: In this study male patients were more in proportion as compared to female. This study showed that maximum with the age group 14 -50 (43.3%) years old followed by 18.3% in 31-40 years old, 16.7% in 61-70 years old.  6.7% showed the least age group as 20 -30 years old.  Out of total 60 patients, 38.3% of the patients showed diabetic ulcer foot which was more whereas 15% showed diabetic gangrene foot which was least. 25% showed diabetic cellulites foot and 21.7% showed as diabetic abscess foot.  Conclusion: Globally as diabetes mellitus cases are increasing and it became rapidly the public health problem. This may be due to burden on economy, health system and on society to manage the diabetic foot problems. Diabetic foot management guidelines must be made into our practice protocols which may preventing limb loss, and decrease mortality and increase the quality of life of the patient. Hence for this it is only possible with the help of foot care education and health care workers.  Hence, foot infection is to put first and care for it like hands.

Background- Electric burns and injuries are the result of electric current passing through the body. Temporary or permanent damage can occur to the skin, tissues, and major organs. Methods- This prospective study was carried out on patients admitted in burn unit of department of surgery M.G. Hospital associated with Dr. S.N. Medical College Jodhpur. Records of the patients admitted from January 2018 to December 2018 were studied. Bed head tickets of the patients evaluated in detail. Results- In our study out of 113 patients maximum no. of patients were in age group of 21-30 years 44 (38.94%) followed by age group <11 years in 21 (18.58%) patients and age group of > 60 years in only 3 (2.65%).39 (34.51%) patients were farmer and 15 (13.27%) were electrician in out of 113 total patients, while 37 (32.74%) were without any occupation. 65 (57.52%) cases of high voltage (HV) electrical injury and 48 (42.48%) cases were of low voltage (LV) electrical injury. Conclusion- Morbidity leading to permanent disabilities make the person physically dependent on others. It can be prevented by educating the people about the proper handling to electric circuits & devices. Proper communication among the electricians may help in lowering such accidents. Proper rehabilitation of the handicapped person & employment to the member of the affected family may reduce the social burden caused by such electricity concerned accidents.

For ruminants, especially high-yielding animals in addition to the complete supply of animals with protein, its digestibility in the rumen is important. With low protein digestibility in the rumen, the released ammonia will be more effectively used by the rumen microflora, and the undigestible protein in the subsequent sections of the digestive tract can serve as a source of amino acids for the body. The use of concentrate mixtures with the inclusion of local, affordable and cheaper grain feeds, in particular a high-energy and protein ingredient- rapeseed presscake makes it possible to increase the milk productivity of cows throughout lactation. These presscakes are well balanced in their amino acid composition and belong to feeds whose protein has a low degree of digestibility in the rumen. The purpose of the researches was to study the digestibility of nutrients and milk productivity of cows when using the concentrate mixture with the inclusion of rapeseed presscake. In the scientific and economic experiment has been carried out on lactating cows, where the cows of the experimental group in the concentrate mixture of peas has been replaced with rapeseed presscake the digestibility of nutrients in the ration, energy metabolism and milk productivity have been studied. Studies have shown that almost all the nutrients were significantly better digested by the animals of the experimental group. Energy in milk was more allocated by cows of the experimental group by 6,29 MJ. From cows of the experimental group for 100 and 305 days of lactation has been obtained more milk by 6,27 and 7,06 %, respectively, than from control herdmates. The biochemical parameters of blood were within the limits of the physiological norm in animals of both groups. Thus, the replacement of peas with rapeseed presscake in the concentrate mixture did not have a negative influence on the metabolic processes and helped to increase the milk productivity of cows.

Background: Varicella is a well-known infectious disease that can have severe complications, also in young children. The Universal Varicella Vaccination (UVV) program was introduced in Tuscany (Italy) in 2003, with a two-dose vaccine schedule given to children between their 13th and 15th month, and at 5–6 years old, as a monovalent for varicella (V) or tetravalent (measles, mumps, rubella and varicella (MMRV)) formulation. Although varicella notifications have dramatically fallen in the last two decades, varicella disease underreporting remains a challenge. Methods: A qualitative immunoenzymatic test (ELISA) was used to measure the presence of anti-varicella antibodies in 165 sera of subjects aged 1–18 years residing in the province of Florence (Italy). Information regarding the anamnestic and vaccination status (including disease notification) was also collected. Results: Our study showed an overall varicella seropositivity of 75.8% (reaching the maximum at 96.3% in the 15–18 years age group). We found that varicella disease notification had been recorded for only 7/165 subjects; however, since 42/165 recalled having had the disease, we can hypothesize that some of them must have been underreported. Furthermore, our study showed that the presence of antibodies after the varicella vaccination remained over time, lasting up to 12 years. Conclusions: Although varicella seroprevalence is <95% in almost all our age groups (except for the 15–18 years age group), our data are encouraging and reflect the success of the introduction of the UVV program and the vaccination campaigns promoted in the Tuscany region.
