Background: Comparison of foetal weight detection between clinical examination and ultrasonography is very important. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to compare the detection of foetal weight between clinical examination and ultrasonography. Methodology: This cross-sectional comparative study was carried out in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology at Rajshahi Medical Hospital Hospital (RMCH), Rajshahi, Bangladesh from July 2012 to June 2014 for a period of 2(two) years. Pregnant women with known gestational age at term (38 to 40 weeks of pregnancy), singleton pregnancy with longitudinal lie were included in this study. The clinical estimation of foetal weight was done. Foetal weight was estimated by using Johnson’s formula. The patient was then taken to Dept. of Radiology & Imaging, RMCH. Ultrasonographic estimation of foetal weight was done from estimation of foetal abdominal circumference (AC), biparietal diameter (BPD) and foetal femur length (FL). All the weights measured by ultrasound were recorded in the data sheet. Result: A total number of 245 pregnant women in term pregnancy were recruited as per inclusion and exclusion criteria. Table 1 shows age distribution of the study subjects. The mean age was 26.42 (SD ± 4.46). Low birth weight was found 12(4.9%) cases in ultrasonographic examination and 14(5.7%) cases in clinical measurement. Overweight was found 13(5.2%) cases in ultrasonographic examination and 16(6.5%) cases in clinical measurement. The mean with SD of birth weight among the study population were 3283.27±461.05 gram and 2870.41±424.84 gram in clinical and Ultrasonographic examination respectively (p < 0.05).

Background: Several female factors are related with the cause of infertility. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to assess female factors related with infertility and their pregnancy outcome after intrauterine insemination. Methodology: This prospective cohort study was carried out at a private infertility centre (Central Hospital Limited, Dhaka) in Dhaka city of Bangladesh from January 2012 to December 2017 for a period of 6 years. Infertile couples who already had undergone natural cycles of super-ovulation for six months or whose duration of infertility was more than one year were included. Infertile women were evaluated and the causes of infertility were assessed. The follow up was performed to see the pregnancy outcome. Result: A total number of 790 women were recruited. The mean age with standard deviation of study population was 28.94±5.386 years. Among 790 infertile women 12 women were become pregnant after IUI. Among these 12 women female factors of infertility was present in 8(66.7%) cases and the rest 4(33.3%) cases were absent. However, 778 women could not pregnant after IUI and among these 277(35.6%) cases had the presence of female factors and the rest 501(64.4%) cases had absence of female infertility causes. The presence of female factor had 3.62 (95% CI 1.08-12.12) times more risk to become pregnant among the infertile women after IUI (p=0.026). Among 790 infertile women 285(36.1%) women had presence of female infertility factors. Conclusion: In conclusion female factors are significantly related with infertility and their pregnancy outcome after intrauterine insemination.

Background: Primary Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma can metastasize in the cervical lymph nodes. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to see the association of Anneroth’s scoring and frequency of cervical lymph node metastasis among primary oral squamous cell carcinoma patients. Methodology: This cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Dhaka Dental College and Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh from November 2009 to December 2010 for a period of one year. Patients attending in the place of study with diagnosed case of oral squamous cell carcinoma were selected for the study after fulfilling the inclusion criteria. The resected primary lesion and neck lymph nodes were sent for histopathological examination. Histopathological grading of the primary lesion was done and neck lymphodes were graded as metastatic and non-metastatic. Results: This prospective study with 50 cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma was taken of which 28 cases were non-metastasis tumor. Each case was graded according to TNM classification, Broder’s grading and Anneroth’s classification. Both Anneroth’s classification (p=0.002) and Broder’s grading (p=0.017) were significant but Anneroth’s one was more significant than Broder’s. Conclusions: There is an association between Anneroth’s grading system with lymph node metastasis. Journal of Current and Advance Medical Research 2019;6(2): 69-72

Background: Haemorroid stapler becomes easier and safe to deal multiple and prolapsed haemorrhoid at a time. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the outcome of suture haemorrhoidopexy for secondary position haemorrhoids in addition to haemorrhoidectomy for primary haemorrhoids (multiple). Methodology: This prospective interventional study was performed in Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh and in a private hospital in Gazipur, Bangladesh for over five (05) years from January 2012 to December 2016. Patients who were presented with secondary position haemorrhoids in addition to primary position haemorrhoids (multiple haemorrhoids) were included in this study. Open haemorrhoidectomy (Milligan-Morgan) followed by suture haemorrhoidopexy was done. All patients were followed up after 1, 2, 4, 8 weeks, 6 months and 1 yearly. Result: Total 18 patients were operated. Among those immediate complications were encountered in patients in the form of per rectal bleeding 1(5.55%), pain 3(visual pain scale 4)16.66%, mucosal oedema 6(33.33%), no patient developed early postoperative prolapse. No patient developed bowel incontinence. Late complications experienced as prolapse at 1 year follow up which was treated by conservative measures. No patient developed anal stenosis. Mean operating time was 25 minutes and duration of hospital stay was 1 day. Conclusion: Stapled haemorrhoidopexy is a safe procedure for circumferential excision of mucosa and submucosa dealing all haemorrhoids and prolapse simultaneously.

Background: Several drugs are used individually for migraine prophylaxis. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to compare the propranolol and amitriptyline as monotherapy for the prophylaxis of migraine. Methodology: This randomized control trial was conducted in headache clinic at Banghabandhu Sheikh Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh from July 2012 to June 2014 for a period of two (02) years. Migraine patients with or without aura of 16 to 50 years of age, patients not on any prophylactic medication were included for this study. Patients meeting all the criteria was randomized group A who were treated with Amitriptyline and group B who were treated with propranolol. Patients was followed for a three months period during which they was instructed to maintain a headache diary. The primary outcome evaluated was the proportion of patients in each group that achieved a 50% reduction in the number of days with headache. Result: A total 80 adult patients were selected. During 1st visit among the patients duration of pain 1 to 4 hours (2.5.0%), 5 to 8 hours (13.3%) 9 to 12 hours (35.0%) and above 13 hours (22.5%) in group A were recorded; however, in group B, duration of pain 1 to 4 hours 1(2.5), 5-8 hours 16(13.3%), 9-12 hours 19(47.5) and above 13 hours 4(10.0) (p>0.05). In group A, no adverse effect was found 26(65.0%), drowsiness 6 (15.0%), dryness of mouth 6(15.0%), constipation 2(5.0%), fatigue and bradycardia were not found. In group B, no adverse effect was found 29(72.5%), drowsiness, dryness of mouth and constipation were not found, fatigue and bradycardia were 7(17.5%) and 4(10.0%). Conclusion: In conclusion number of attack and headache before treatment gradually decrease in subsequent follow up in both groups. Journal of Current and Advance Medical Research 2019;6(2):77-82

Background: Technology enhanced learning in medical curriculum is expanding rapidly because of research showing the benefits for learners in terms of engagement, convenience, attainment and enjoyment. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to explore medical students’ perspective on technology enhanced learning in undergraduate pharmacology. Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in the Faculty of Medicine during 2016 for a period of three (3) months. Second year MBBS students who were studying in the International Medical School, Management & Science University,Selangor, Malaysia with the age group of equal or more than 18 years of age with both sexes were selected as study population. Several online quizzes were conducted by Quizizz. Data were analysed after online quizzes using semi-structured questionnaire. Results: A total number of 42 students were involved in this study. Among these 35(83.33%) surveyed students were strongly agreed with timing for answering the questions however, 39(92.86%) strongly agreed that quizzes stimulate interest in pharmacology and 28(66.67%) strongly agreed that quizzes improve knowledge and skill in pharmacology. Most of the students suggested to continue online quizzes. Conclusion:Systematic analysis and stratification of students’ perceptions regarding technology enhanced learning initiatives such as online quizzes are essential in gaining insight for educational planning and interventions in pharmacology.

Background: Birth weight is the most important predictor of newborn health and survival and is associated with higher risk of infant and childhood mortality. Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the maternal and socio-demographic factors of low birth weight (LBW) newborns of mothers admitted at a teaching medical college hospital in Dhaka city of Bangladesh. Methodology: This was a cross sectional study. Interview was taken by face to face interview and was focused to obtain the information about maternal weight at onset gestation, before delivery, educational, economical status of family, antenatal care visits, maternal exposure to hypertension and anaemia. Data had been collected from interview and medical records. Results: This study revealed from multivariate liner regression analysis. In this model, birth weight had been considered as continuous variable and results had depicted the relationship of different maternal factors with birth weight. This study suggests that there were several factors which lead to LBW babies. The study shows ANC visits (p value 0.05), number of parity (p value .02) and hypertension (p value 0.02) had significant negative effect of on birth weight. Mothers who had taken less ANC visits, more chance of having LBW.Hypertensive mothers were at risk of having low birth weight babies than normotensive mothers. Number of parity was also found as a significant factor. Primi mothers were more prone to LBW. Conclusion: This study suggests that less ANC visits, increase number of parity and hypertension have significant negative effect of on birth weight.
