Material and Method: This prospective study was conducted at a tertiary care centre from 2018 to2019in North Eastern India Catering multiethnic tribal population. A total of498women above 40 years of age who attended gynae opd for various reasons were included in the study Women were advised to give 3 cc blood samples. The serum VD was estimated by Beckman Coulten Unicel DXI immunoassay system using the principle of chemiluminescence, Incidence of Vitamin D deficiency (VDD) and insufficiency (VDI) calculated. VDD was defined as 25(OH) D level in blood<20ng/ml and insufficiency of VD was defined as 25(OH) D levels <30ng/ml/. Result: In present study mean age was 46.78±6.914 years. 50.40%women were vitamin D deficient. 37.95% women were vitamin D insufficient. Mean parity was 3.94±9.23 and mean value of vit d was 21.36±9.23. Conclusion: Hypovitaminosis D is highly prevalent among perimenopausal and post menopausal women in the North eastern part of India. The need for improving the levels of vitamin D among this group of population is both vital and urgent.

Epidemiological Trends

To determine the prevalence and occurrence of visual morbidity in patients of pterygium attending eye opd in a tertiary care centre of Bihar. Methods: In this observational study a total of 193 patients, diagnosed with pterygium, underwent complete ocular examination by an ophthalmologist. Epidemiological trends including age, sex, occupation, effect of living condition and socioeconomic status were analyzed. Results: There is a male preponderance of 58.03%. The age incidence of the group showed that the incidence of pterygium was 10.36% in the age group of less than 30 years. It rises to a maximum of 29.53% in the age of 41-50 years and then gradually declines.. The incidence was found to be maximum among farmers(39.86%) followed by miners(31%). Conclusion: People who work outdoors are at a greater risk because they are subjected to involuntary UVB exposure. The highest exposure occurs during the two hours on either side of noon. Workers must be aware and should take appropriate measures like wearing protective glasses, caps, etc
