Introduction: The arterial supply to Sino-Atrial Node (SA Node) and its variations is of great importance in increasing use of cardiac interventional procedures. Aim and objective: The aim of present study is to analyze the arterial supply of SA node. Materials and Methods: Fifty-five human hearts, fixed in the formalin solution were dissected and artery to SA node was traced. Results: Out of 55 cases, SA nodal artery originated from right coronary artery (RCA) in 64%, left circumflex artery (LCX) in 34% and 2% from both. S-shaped SA nodal artery was seen in 2 cases. In most of the specimens (42 out of 55) SA nodal artery formed a ring around superior vena cava and in all the cases, the branches of SA nodal artery supplied to both atria and auricle based on the origin either from RCA or LCX. Conclusion: Variations in arterial supply to SA node will be helpful to interventional cardiac surgeons.

Introduction : Metabolic syndrome (MS) , with its huge baggage of complications , is emerging as a major threat to lead a healthy life, worldwide. Sedentary habits, urbanization, life style modifications, stress and anxiety contribute to its increasing incidence, not to mention diabetes and hypertension. Routine screening for diabetes fails to detect early MS. Materials and methods: 55 normal glucose tolerant (NGT) subjects, both males & females were selected for the study. Based on modified National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel (ATP) III criteria (Waist circumference-WC 80 cm FM, 90 cm M), they were grouped into - with and without metabolic syndrome (MS). Fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin levels and high density lipoprotein were estimated. Insulin resistance (IR) was calculated by HOMAIR formula. Results : TGL and insulin levels were elevated and HDL levels were decreased in MS group compared to those without MS & this was statistically significant. Among the 55 NGT subjects, 30 people had MS. The prevalence of MS was 43% and the prevalence of IR among NGT was 31% . Conclusion: Metabolic syndrome & IR occur in subjects with normal glucose tolerance also. Hence, screening of vulnerable people for MS should be done to detect potential diabetes mellitus (DM) & coronary artery disease (CAD) in early stages.
导言:代谢综合征(MS)伴随大量并发症，正在成为全球健康生活的主要威胁。久坐不动的习惯、城市化、生活方式的改变、压力和焦虑导致其发病率增加，更不用说糖尿病和高血压了。资料和方法:选择55例正常糖耐量(NGT)受试者，男女均可。根据修改后的国家胆固醇教育计划(NCEP)成人治疗小组(ATP) III标准(腰围-腰围80 cm FM, 90 cm M)，将患者分为有无代谢综合征(MS)两组。评估空腹血糖、总胆固醇、甘油三酯、胰岛素水平和高密度脂蛋白。胰岛素抵抗(IR)采用HOMAIR公式计算。结果:与非MS组相比，MS组TGL、胰岛素水平升高，HDL水平降低，差异有统计学意义。55例NGT患者中有30例MS，其中MS患病率为43%，IR患病率为31%。结论:糖耐量正常的受试者也会出现代谢综合征和IR。因此，应该对易感人群进行MS筛查，在早期发现潜在的糖尿病(DM)和冠状动脉疾病(CAD)。

Sarcoidosis is a chronic disease affecting multiple systems and is characterized by non-caseating granulomas. It is of unknown etiology. In some cases it is very difficult to differentially diagnose sarcoidosis from malignancy just by clinical and radiological features in spite of modern imaging modalities like PET-CT Scan. Its association with solid organ malignancy is rare. The only accurate way to demonstrate and differentiate sarcoidosis from malignancy is histopathological examination. We report a rare case of Sarcoidosis affecting right sided cervical lymphnodes coexisting in a patient with left sided breast carcinoma.

Introduction: The exact occurrence of extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and AmpC β -lactamase production among uropathogenic bacteria is not known. Infections with drug resistant urinary pathogens have limited therapeutic options. Hence this study was conducted to know the occurrence of AmpC β-lactamase production among gram negative bacteria (GNB) causing urinary tract infection (UTI). Materials and Methods : The urine samples submitted to Department of Microbiology from 1st March 2016 to 30th April 2016 were studied. All the samples were plated on sheep blood agar and MacConkey's agar. The isolates were identified and Antibiotic susceptibility testing was done. AmpC β -lactamase and ESBL detection was done as described previously. The results were tabulated. Results: This study was conducted on 900 urine samples. Total 144 (16%) GNB were isolated. E coli was the most common isolate followed by non-fermenting gram negative bacteria (NFGNB). AmpC β -lactamase production was seen in 75 (52.1%) isolates and ESBL production was seen in 60 isolates (41.7%). Total 27 (18.7%) isolates showed multidrug resistant (MDR) phenotypes and 23/27 were AmpC β -lactamase producers. Conclusion: Routine detection of ESBL and AmpC β -lactamase is required to choose appropriate therapy. Judicious use of antibiotics should be done in clinical settings. Imipenem can be used as an empirical antibiotic for complicated urinary tract infection.

Introduction: Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) is a common problem in women which causes discomfort and decreases the quality of life. About 10-15% of women experience episodes of DUB at some point of time during the reproductive years of their lives. Annually 5-19% of women seek medical care. It accounts for more than 25% of all hysterectomies. Many treatment options are available. Objectives: To study efficacy of levonorgestrel IUCD in terms of blood loss, endometrial thickness, hemoglobin concentration and to evaluate side effects in DUB. Materials and methods: 40 women presenting with dysfunctional uterine bleeding were treated with levonorgestrel IUCD. The primary outcome in the study was reduction in menstrual loss measured using pictorial blood loss assessment chart (PBAC) score, increase in blood hemoglobin levels, reduction in thickness of

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder with multiple aetiology, presents with varied cutaneous manifestations and systemic involvement, primarily affects women in her child bearing age. Congenital bifid tongue is an anomaly due to nonfusion of the two lingual swellings. It can occur either as an isolated entity or in association with syndromes like Opitz G syndrome, Oral-Facial-Digital syndrome type I, Klippel Feil anomaly and Larsen syndrome or even as very rare feature in infants born to diabetic mothers. We present a case report of 23 year old female, a second child from a nonconsanguineous marriage with no significant antenatal or postnatal history, diagnosed of SLE. She had secondary amenorrhoea and hypothyroidism, examination revealed reduced secondary sexual characteristics, short stature, orbital hypertelorism and a bifid tongue which was present since birth. Recent studies suggest there is increased risk of autoimmune diseases particularly SLE development via the gene transmitted by X chromosome. It is also found that SLE patients are commonly associated with X chromosome polysomy. This case is unusual as the patient had multiple features suggesting genetic involvement, both SLE and bifid tongue is individually found to have genetic roots and till date there is no single case of SLE with a congenital bifid tongue in literature.

Background: Panic disorder alone or when co-morbid with depression can severely affect the functioning of an individual. Aim: To determine the occurrence of panic disorder and co-morbid depression and their quality of life. Material and Methods: Thirty patients from psychiatry ward and out-patient department were assessed by Panic Disorder Severity Scale, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale and World Health Organization Quality Of Life for severity of panic attacks, co-morbid depression and life quality. Results: Most patients showed moderate (56.6%) to slight (36.6%) severity of panic symptoms. Of them,80% had depression. In them, 33.3% had mild and 26.6% moderate levels of depression. Quality of life was moderate in 40% and poor in 36.66%. Conclusion: Patients with panic disorder have high frequency of co-morbid depression, however severity of both needs to be assessed separately. Those who have higher severity of both or depression have poor life quality.

A 40 year old patient suffering from vague pain in the abdomen since 1 month, came with CT scan of abdomen and pelvis showing large lobulated cystic lesion of 11 x 10.6 x 9.7cms suggesting ? Left ovarian neoplasm. On exploratory laparotomy uterus and ovaries were normal and a mass of 10 x 9 cm was seen arising from the pelvis. The Histopathological report stated pheochromocytoma. The extra adrenal pheochromocytomas are rare tumors that originate from the chromaffin tissue of sympathetic nervous system.
