AbstractThe aim of this study is to compare patients with and without mastalgia and to analyze the factors affecting mastalgia and its severity. The patient’s age, height, weight, educational status, marital status, and occupation were recorded in all subjects. In addition, the women were asked about the presence of any risk factors for mastalgia, such as tea and coffee consumption, smoking, alcohol consumption, and weight gain. The sternal notch to nipple distance (SNND) was measured to determine whether there was breast sagging. Mastalgia was significantly more common in women with BMIs of > 30 kg/m2 (OR: 2.94, CI 1.65–5.24), those who were primary school graduates or illiterate (OR: 2.96, CI 1.6–5.46), and those with SNND values of 22–25 cm (OR: 2.94, CI 1.79–4.82). In these women, drinking more than 6 cups of tea a day (OR: 2.15, CI 1.32–3.5), smoking at least 10 cigarettes a day (OR: 2.94, CI 1.78–4.83), and drinking alcohol at least once a week (OR: 2.1, CI 1.12–3.91) were found to be important factors that increased the risk of mastalgia. As a result, it has been found that severe mastalgia complaints cause by obesity, sagging breasts, never giving birth, unemployment anxiety, regular smoking, alcohol use, and excessive tea consumption.

Background: Anastomotic leak are reported among neonates who underwent esophageal atresia. Aim: To find risk factors of anastomotic leakage in patients underwent esophageal repair. Methods: All cases with esophageal atresia were included. In this case control study, patients were classified in two groups according to presence or absence of anastomotic leaks. Duration of study was 10 years. Results: Sixty-one cases were included. Mean±SD age at time of surgery in patients with leakage and without leakage was 9.50±7.25 and 8.83±6.93 respectively (p=.670). Blood transfusion and two layer anastomosis had significant correlation with anastomotic leakage. Conclusion: Blood transfusion and double layer anastomosis are associated with higher rate of anastomotic leakage.

Introduction: Peptic ulcer is a sore in the lining of stomach or the rst part of the duodenum. Peptic ulcer perforation with subsequent peritonitis is commonest complication of peptic ulcer disease and is a surgical emergency. It carries with it great morbidity and mortality. AIMS: To study the risk factors associated with peptic ulcer perforation in our setting. Objectives: To Assess the role of various risk factors like age, sex, previous use of NSAIDS, Smoking & other associated illness. To study the risk factors that affect operative outcome in peptic perforation peritonitis. Materials & Methods: All patients of peptic ulcer with perforation peritonitis on laparotomy are included in the study.Patients with peptic ulcer Perforation of age > 14 years. Results: Duodenal perforations were present In 69 cases out of 100 cases (69%). Gastric perforation was present in 31 cases (31%). In gastric cases 30 perforations were present on lesser curvature and pyloric Antrum and one perforation was present on posterior wall of stomach. Discussion: Present clinical study of peptic perforation has been carried out to nd out various risk factor associated with It's occurrence, investigation, clinical picture, preoperative ndings and post operative outcome and recurrence of perforation after taking Anti H. pylori regime was observed. Conclusion:In my study that H.pylori infection, smoking, use of NSAID's is signicant risk factor on peptic perforation

Objectives: Recognizing the risk factors affecting the in-hospital stay of the patients operated for peptic ulcer perforation. Study Design: Cross Sectional study. Setting: General Surgical Wards, Nishtar Hospital Multan. Period: From 15th November 2018 to 5th of March 2019. Material & Methods: A total of 100 patients of all ages who had a peptic ulcer perforation were included. Patients with a perforation that wasn't attributable to a peptic ulcer e.g. malignancy or gastrinoma were excluded. Patients were asked about their smoking and drinking habits. Data was collected about various risk factors of peptic ulcer, their co-morbidities and the medications. Results: Gender, smoking, alcohol intake, H-pylori infection, size & site of perforation did not have a significant effect on hospital stay days. In patient stay days differed in groups based on comorbidities and medication. A weak correlation was found among age and stay days. Conclusion: Patients with complain of COPD and other pulmonary complications have a longer hospital stay in the hospital. The association of arthritis and hypertension could not be demonstrated comprehensively.
