Self medication is a major form of self-care. It involves the use of medicinal products by the consumer to treat self recognized disorder, symptoms, recurrent disease or minor health problems. It is independent of age for both males and females(5). Medicines for self medication are often called Over the Counter (OTC) drug, which are available without a Doctors prescription through pharmacies, mostly in the less developed countries. Recent development of the pharmaceutical companies contribute to a wide spread availability of OTC Medicine. The study was conducted in Rural and Urban areas of Kodad, Telangana state, nalgonda dist, 508206. In these areas there are several type of people for eg: some of the people are educated, some are illiteracy ,some are workers etc. The study was done in for the 200 people of different age groups of male and female. It was found that the urban people (54.74%) of male, (12%) of the female are taking self medication .In the rural people the (45.26%)of the male and (43%) of the female are taking self medication and among the educated people those who are studying ssc below they are taking self medication for about (24.21%) in male and (29.09%) are female and those who are studying 12 class (14.75%) male and (26%) of female students among the degree students in male are (58.94%) and the female are (38.18%). The students of above degree in male are about (2.10%)and (12.72%) of female students and it was seen that mostly (17.89%) of male and (10.90%) of female taking self medication for fever and for both fever and headache are (32.65%) of male and (25.26%) of female are taking self medication. For fever and acidity (10.52%)of male and (1.81%) of female are taking medication.Mostly (2.10%) of male and (3.15%) of female taking self medication for acidity and it was seen that people who are taking self medication they are using common sources of medication like pharmacy store (20%) and from grocery shop is (29.09%), and from other persons is about (27.27%). It was observed that since >5years he (75%) of the people are taking self medication and (50%) of the peoplethey are taking from 2-5 years,and (65%) of people taking self medication more than 2years. It was found that most of the people are taking self medication because of their personal convenience (45%), and also due to the long wait for check up (20%) and some of other reasons like illness is minor, lack of time, lack of money and others. It also found that (41.05%) of male and (23.63%) of female are having knowledge about the drugs, and (53.68%) of male and (74.54%) of female are not having knowledge about the drugs. It was observed that complications occurred due to self medication about (12.63%) of male and female didn’t occurred any complications and (24%) of the people given self medication to the children and (82%) of people not given self medication to their children.

Morphometric analysis is important in any hydrological investigation and it is inevitable in development and management of drainage basin. The development of morphometric techniques was a major advance in the quantitative description of the geometry of the drainage basins and its network which helps in characterizing the drainage network. The geomorphological properties which are important from the hydrological studies point of view include the linear, aerial and relief aspect of the watersheds. The study indicates that analysis of morphometric parameters with the help of geographic information system (GIS) would prove a viable method of characterizing the hydrological response behaviour of the watershed. In the present study a morphometric analysis of Pench river basin area has been carried out using geoprocessing techniques in GIS. In this study, Pench River basin a tributaries of Kanhan River has been selected for detailed morphometric analysis. Morphometric parameters viz; stream order, stream length, bifurcation ratio, drainage density, stream frequency, form factor, circulatory ratio, etc., are calculated. Pench River Basin covers an area of 4865 sq. km. Total number of streams are 3621, of this, first order stream segments accounts for78.65%. Since, the bifurcation ratio value is 2.00 to 5.40. It is concluded that GIS techniques proved to be a competent tool in morphometric analysis.

Background: Maternal psychosocial stress during fetal brain development results in increased risk for impaired behavioral and emotional development and affective disorders in childre. Controversies exist in literature regarding sexual dimorphism in the effects of prenatal stress on behavioral development. This study was designed with the view to examine the genderspecific effects of chronic maternal stress on hippocampal neuronal cell density in male and female wistar rats at weaning. Methods: Pregnant wistar rats were subjected to restraint stress from embryonic day 11 till delivery. Male and female rat pups were sacrificed. Brains from different groups were processed for cresyl violet staining on postnatal 22 day. Result: It was seen that prenatal stress caused significant reduction in the numerical cell density in CA1, CA3, dentate gyrus and dentate hilar regions of hippocampus in stressed males when compared to the control and did not show any effect on stressed females. Conclusion: These data reinforce the view that prenatal stress affects cognitive development in a sex-specific manner and the diminished effect seen in females could be due to the oestrogenmediated neuroprotection on hippocampal function.

The present research aims to examine the effect of aerobic and anaerobic exercise on Bax and Bcl-2 markers after the induced reperfusion ischemia by isoprenaline. In this study, there were used 26 male Wistar rats weighing approximately 200-250 g with two to three months old. The rats in pilot group were divided into two subgroups of reperfusion ischemia (n= 7) and healthy (n= 7) for study of heart-failure byisoprenaline. The rats in research group were divided into three subgroups ofaerobic (n= 4), anaerobic (n= 4) and control (n= 4) for study of gene expression. In rats of reperfusion ischemia group were confirmed heart-failure after injection isoprenaline by Trichromation staining technique. However, the rats in research group were familiar running on treadmill after one week, then they were exposed for one month training with frequency of three times weekly. After one month, all rats were rest for two consecutive days. Then within 24 hours, there were injected isoprenaline with dose of 150 and 125 mg per kg of their body weight. Data was analyzed using independent T, one way ANOVA and2 ct formula. The research results showed that aerobic and anaerobic exercise can reduce and increase Bax and Bcl-2 gene expression respectively, but these changes were not significant. However, it seems that one month training can’t decrease amount of myocardial apoptosis. Therefore, study of effect increase of period physical activity is essential for decrease amount of heart-failure.

This study was proposed to study the effects of cigarette smoking and myocardial Infarction on platelet size. A total of 298 adults (18 years above) patients with clinically suspected acute coronary syndrome who attended in cardiac emergency and admitted in coronary care unit in the department of Cardiology, King George’s Medical University, India were enrolled in this study. Among them 248 patients had ECG changes (ST-elevation, STdepression, T-inversion, appearance of Q-wave) with or without elevated troponin I and treated with anti-platelet drugs. They were considered as cases (group I). The rest 50 Patients had normal ECG findings, normal cardiac troponin I and did not receive anti-platelet therapy. They were considered as controls (group II). Clinical history, medical reports, findings and information were documented in a pre-designed data sheet with informed and written consent. Blood samples for mean platelet volume (MPV) were obtained in the catheterization laboratory before coronary angiography and determined by automated analyzer. The mean age of controls was 40.9±17.9 and that in cases was 59.2±11.9. Among them 72.2% were smokers in cases groups while 60% were nonsmokers in control group. The mean platelet in case group was 301.01±177.1 and in control group 304.7±132.5. While the mean MPV in case group was 8.5.0±1.2 fl and in control group 7.8±0.4 fl (p<0.001). In Platelet; statistically no significant difference was observed between smoking status (smoker or nonsmoker for both groups cases and controls) (p value > 0.05). It was observed that at all these groups higher mean was observed in smoker in cases groups than other groups i.e. 307.6±192.72. In MPV; statistically significant difference was observed between smoking status (smoker or nonsmoker for both groups cases and controls) (p value < 0.05). It was observed that at all these groups higher mean was observed in smoker in cases groups than other groups i.e. 8.58±1.41. These results suggest that smoking may increase platelet consumption in atherosclerotic vessels and that subsequently megakaryocytes are activated to produce larger platelets, which are more active. Thus, an increase in MPV due to smoking may also contribute to the acceleration of atherosclerosis and should be considered as a risk factor for atherosclerotic disease

Thus, an increase in MPV due to smoking may also contribute to the acceleration of atherosclerosis and should be considered as a risk factor for atherosclerotic disease","PeriodicalId":14198,"journal":{"name":"International journal of recent scientific research","volume":"106 1","pages":"17214-17217"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80187972","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objective: To assess the number of Private Dental Practitioners (PDPs) practicing and not practicing dental implantology and to evaluate their knowledge, awareness and practice about implant dentistry. Methods: A self-structured questionnaire was distributed to 200 PDPs of Navi Mumbai. The questionnaire covered general basic information and assessed the knowledge, attitude and practice of PDPs regarding implant dentistry. Descriptive analysis was carried out for the responses. Results: Out of 200 PDPs 45% were Bachelor of Dental Surgery(BDS) and most of them were not practicing implant dentistry due to lack of skills, while 55% were Master of Dental Surgery (MDS) in various fields and were practicing implant dentistry by themselves. High cost of implant dentistry and fear of surgery was the main hindrance in convincing the patients for dental implants. Most of the PDPs would like to update their knowledge regarding implant dentistry through Continuing Dental Education (CDE) programs. Conclusion: Though dental implants have changed the outlook of dentistry in last few decades, the knowledge and practice of dental implants by PDPs in Navi Mumbai is still limited. Various courses and CDE programs can help PDPs to update their knowledge and skill regarding implant dentistry.
