Title : Motivation, Barrier and attitude among primary care physicians in the Kingdom of Bahrain towards healthcare workers influenza vaccination
Abstract : Primary healthcare workers are at increased risk of contracting influenza virus due to nature of thier work. Thus immunization against influenza virus is essential. Yet influenza uptake among healthcare workers is still low. The aim of this study is to assess motivations, barriers and attitude towards influenza vaccintion. This a cross sectional study that was carried out on 351 primary healthcare phyiscians using a self-answered quiestionnaire designed by oxford university to assess phtisican assess motivations, barriers and attitude towards influenza vaccination. Total of 264 responded and filled questioannare representing (92.6%) of priamary healthcare doctors working in ministry of health in kingdom of Bahrain. They key findings results: More than half (53.4%) of physicians were vaccinated, most frequently reported motives were protection of self (89.9%), protection of relatives (84.9%), while the most common barriers towards influenza vaccination were the preference to use another barrier protection in order not to transmit influenza (47. 4%). With regards to female healthcare workers (78.9%) of primary care physicians were not vaccinated during their pregnancy. These findings may provide useful information’ for immunization campaign teams who are able to tailor strategies to reach targeted groups and in turn reduce the morbidiy and mortality associated with influenza virus infection..

Title : COMPARISON BETWEEN ANATOMICAL REPAIR AND OPEN MESHPLASTY IN MIDLINE INCISIONAL HERNIA
Abstract : Hernia is the protrusion of the viscous or part of the viscous into the wall of the containing cavity by a normal or acquired defect. It is possible to categorise these defects as spontaneous (primary) or acquired or by their position on the abdominal wall. Usually acquired hernias occur after surgical incisions and are therefore referred to as incisional hernias. This is a prospective comparative study done on 50 patients with midline incisional hernia, during the period September 2018 to August 2020 satisfying inclusion criteria, attending Surgery OPD. Parameters compared include Time required for surgery, Surgical Site Infection, Duration of hospital stay, Recurrences, Cost. Anatomical repair techniques take lesser operative time compared to meshplasty. It is associated with early return to physical activity, and shorter hospital stay It has been associated with higher recurrence rate than mesh repair. Meshplasty is the almost the gold standard for the incisional hernia, it has better quality of life post-surgery and no recurrence, however it associated with higher incidence of local wound complications compared to anatomical repair and more cost than anatomical repair. Meshplasty with polypropylene mesh is superior to anatomical repair with regard to the recurrence of the hernia..

Title : A review of synergistic fixed dose combination of Ampicillin and Cloxacillin for broad spectrum anti-bacterial activity
Abstract : Antibiotics are chemical substances derived from living organisms that can hamper the life cycle of other organisms. Ampicillin belongs to the penicillin group of β-lactam antibiotics and has broad- spectrum activity. Ampicillin has been used extensively to treat bacterial infections for a long and it is one of the highly prescribed antibiotics. Cloxacillin is a semisynthetic antibiotic in the same class as penicillin which is active against penicillinase-producing staphylococci as well as other gram-positive pathogens. Antibacterial drugs are also used commonly as a fixed-dose combination. The use of a fixed-dose combination of antibiotics is more common in developing countries. Ampicillin has also been used in combination with other antimicrobials, β-lactamase inhibitors such as Cloxacillin to improve its efficacy, broaden antimicrobial coverage and reduce the development of drug resistance. This combination demonstrates synergistic effect and helpful in the real-world treatment of a wide range of complicated infections including aerobic, anaerobic, and mixed infections. It is also utilized for the treatment of resistant infections, and for veterinary purposes. The synergistic effect of ampicillin and cloxacillin combination may be useful in those ampicillin-resistant strains as well as where the broader antibacterial coverage required. Real-world evidence required for its resurgence and effective antibacterial therapeutic alternative where a broad spectrum of antibiotics may consider future use and to avoid the further resistance..

Title : A STUDY OF GYNAECOMASTIA IN A TERTIARY CARE CENTRE
Abstract : Gynaecomastia is the benign enlargement of male breast tissue (>2 cm palpable, firm, subareolar gland and ductal tissue) due to a relative drop in changes due to the influence of androgens or rise in the effects under the influence of estrogen. Pseudogynaecomastia on the other hand is enlargement of the breast due to deposition of excess adipose tissue. This disease is caused by multiple factors like Physiological factors, endocrine and non-endocrine factors, drug induced and idiopathic. This is a prospective observational study of 20 cases of male patients with enlarged breasts presented during the period between September 2018 to August 2020.Patients with enlarged breasts satisfying the inclusion criteria, attending Surgery OPD. The evaluation of gynaecomastia is a tricky process. A serial approach that begins with meticulous history taking and physical examination may eliminate the need for a cumbersome work- up. Appropriate clinical workup with appropriate investigations to confirm gynaecomastia and rule out malignancy is essential. The etiology is usually benign and treated conservatively or surgically depending on the grade of gynaecomastia. Pseudogynaecomastia is due to fat accumulation in the breast area, causing “female-like breasts”. This condition is most often present in overweight or obese males. The treatment ranges from weight loss via diet and exercise, to weight loss bypass procedures or male breast reduction surgery..

Title : COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN INTRAVENOUS DEXMEDETOMIDINE AND INTRAVENOUS LIGNOCAINE IN ATTENUATION OF PRESSOR RESPONSE TO LARYNGOSCOPY AND ENDOTRACHEAL INTUBATION
Abstract : The pressor response to direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation precipitating a significant haemodynamic response is an established phenomenon and thus, a cause of concern for anesthesiologist’s all over the world. Various methods have been tried to counter these effects and increase the safety of the procedure like, use of intravenous local anesthetic agents eg. Intravenous lignocaine, drugs like beta-blockers eg. Esmolol and Metoprolol, narcotic analgesics like Fentanyl, topical lignocaine spray, Gabapentin, alpha 2 agonist drugs like Dexmedetomidine and clonidine intravenously and many more. This current study was planned to compare intravenous lignocaine with intravenous Dexmedetomidine for attenuation of pressor response. a prospective randomized study was carried out on Total 60 patients which were equally, 30 each into Group L and Group D. Group L received injection Lignocaine intravenously 1.5 mg/kg, 3 minutes prior to induction and Group D received injection Dexmedetomidine 1mcg/kg, 10 minutes prior to induction. After analysing the results obtained, it was concluded that injection Dexmedetomidine 1mcg/kg, 10 minutes prior to induction is more efficient when compared to injection lignocaine 1.5mg/kg for attenuation of pressor response to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation..
