Title : ASSESSMENT OF CLINICO – HISTOLOGICAL REGRESSION AND EXPRESSION OF COX-2 ENZYME LEVELS IN PATIENTS WITH ORAL LEUKOPLAKIA POST TREATMENT WITH FREEZE-DRIED BLACK RASPBERRY CAPSULES: A RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL
Abstract : Oral leukoplakia - most common potentially malignant disorder and its management is currently not evidence-based. The present study intends to determine the efficacy of freeze dried black raspberry capsules on clinical and histopathological retro gradation and also regression of COX – 2 enzyme levels in patients with oral leukoplakia. A total of 30 patients diagnosed with oral leukoplakia were randomly divided into 2 groups – group A and group B. A detailed clinical examination was done and size of the lesion was noted. For both groups punch biopsy was done and blood sample was collected before the start of treatment and after 45 days. Group A were treated with 300mg freeze dried black raspberry capsules twice daily for 45 days and group B was treated with antioxidant capsules (SM Fibro) twice daily for 45 days. To test the mean difference between the two groups, a student’s t-test (paired sample t-test & independent sample t-test) was used. Statistically, a significant difference was not found in both groups regarding the size of the lesion (P > 0.005). However, the study demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in COX-2 enzyme levels in group A than in group B (p < 0.005). Half of the patients in both the groups should one unit of improvement histologically which is not statistically significant. Based on the study outcome, it was concluded that management of oral Leukoplakia with dietary supplementation of black raspberry capsules can be considered one of the treatment modalities..

Title : Effects of Covid-19 on private dental practice
Abstract : The covid-19 pandemic is a major public health crisis globally and has affected the practice of medicine and dentistry. The objective is to compare the effects of immediate pre-covid-19 period and the covid-19 period in our private dental practice. This was a retrospective study conducted at pre-covid-19 pandemic (January-December, 2019) and during covid-19 pandemic (January-December, 2020) in a private dental clinic in Najran, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Our dental clinic runs services based on three Departments (Clinical, Administrative and Research). Patients demographics and turnout with new and follow-up cases were recorded during both periods. Total number of new patients during the pre-covid-19 (2019) era was 2,271 while during the covid-19 (2020) era was 2,535. In terms of patients visit to the center, 18,176 patients visited the dental clinic in 2019, while 19,842 visited in 2020. Regarding dental services rendered, 9,596 services were rendered in 2019 while 16,039 were rendered in 2020. It was observed from this study that there was a sharp drop in patients visit to our clinics because of the total lockdown put in place by the government. This, however improved during the partial ease of lockdown..

Title : Chronic subdural hematoma: burr hole versus craniotomy
Abstract : Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH), an increasingly common neurosurgical disease. The most common procedures for treatment of CSDH include twist drill craniostomy, single or multiple burr hole drainage, and craniotomy. To determine the surgical experiences and outcomes of patients treated by burr hole drainage and mini craniotomy. Patients admitted under department of neurosurgery R L Jalappa hospital and research center requiring surgical drainage of a chronic subdural hematoma from January 2019 to February 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. 40 patients underwent surgery for chronic subdural hematoma. The craniotomy group was comprised of 20. Twenty patients undergoing burr hole washout 6 patients underwent bilateral drainage, in both groups predominantly male were involved, commonest etiology was secondary to remote trauma. 15 patients in the burrhole group and 13 patients in the craniotomy group had a history of being on anticoagulation/anti-platelet therapy. Initial and postoperative mean glasgow coma score and rankin disability scores were found to be very similar in both the groups. Burr hole washout appears to be similar to craniotomy for the treatment of csdh with respect to patient outcome, re-operative rates..

Title : “PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEM AND COVID CONUNDRUM” (With special reference to Primary Health Care)
Abstract : Health Care is not an exclusive province only of doctors, hospitals and social services but a legal mandate to State to ensure right to life with dignity to its citizens in compliance of national and international covenants. Through Hippocratic Oath, health care depicts an unending sea of medical service for humanity beyond parochial cleavages of race, religion, ethnicity, property and penury, and “Health for All” has become a clarion call under the aegis of Millennium Development Goal. Public Health Care throughout the globe is poised to vindicate healthy societies and citizenry by thwarting the health inequalities hosting on social stratification and unequal social, economic and political pitches. Public Health Care system is an instrument of social justice to be operated by both the ruler and ruled. India like many other developed countries built up four-corned network of medical services covering urban and rural areas. Public health systems, everywhere, are grappled with communicable and non-communicable, emerging and re-emerging diseases like drug resistant T.B., malaria, SARS, avian flu, HIN and Corona pandemic. Covid-19 the newly detected invisible virus playing truant with medical profession devouring millions of people throughout the globe has become most dreaded enemy of public health and human existence. Though our medical researches and solutions portray silver lines of hope for cure, the non-recurrence of corona death-dance is not fully assured, and threat of Covid-19 in various forms looms large over the public health. Researches throughout the world roar against the Corona pandemic, and health is sought to be not a mere escape from death but an escape from disease. The statistics of Covid-19 pandemic are frightening that need to be arrested and annihilated through a collective global endeavor to save humans rich or poor or great or small. This article intends to portray a comparative study of the deadly prevalence of Corona virus and its impact on public health system and human existence, and the efforts of W.H.O. to contain the epidemic..

Title : Study of late complications of Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis for Ulcerative colitis operated at tertiary care centre and factors affecting to that.
Abstract : Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis (RPC-IPAA) is usually the preferred procedure. This research aims to study the risk factors associated with the development of postoperative complications. For this cohort study we included all patients who underwent RPC-IPAA in the Department of surgical gastroenterology, V.S. General hospital, Ahmedabad between 2008 and 2017. Data for patients who were operated before the year 2012 were obtained retrospectively from the medical records and rest of the data were collected prospectively. Late complications were defined as those developed after 1 month. We compiled the data and analysed using appropriate statistical test to look for pre-operative patient variables associated with late complications. Out of 32 patients, 19 males and 13 were females with average age was 32.3 years at the time operation. 13 patients developed complications [pouchitis (n=6), incisional hernia (n=3), bowel obstruction (n=2), pouch leakage (n=1) and erectile dysfunction (n=1)]. We found serum albumin less than 3 mg/dL and pancolitis associated with more postoperative late complications with p value 0.007 and 0.04 respectively which is statistically significant. Other patient variables like gender, duration of disease more than 36 months, extraintestinal manifestations, smoking, dietary pattern, family history, medical comorbidities, body mass index less than 20 kg/m2, ESR>30, backwash ileitis or stapler anastomosis were not associated with increased post-operative complications and statistically insignificant. This study demonstrates that low preoperative albumin level and pancolitis are risk factors for late complications of IPAA. Preoperative nutritional support, especially albumin, could reduce late complication..
