Introduction: Cervical assessment has moved from digital examination to sonographic evaluation in recent years. Predicting the time of onset of labour and mode of delivery at term is a great concern for both the pregnant woman and her relatives. Aim: To predict the time of onset of labour and mode of delivery by Transvaginal sonographic measurement of cervical length at term. Materials and Methods: This longitudinal study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, SRM Medical College Hospital and Research Centre, Kattankalathur, Tamil Nadu, India, from March 2021 to August 2021. All low-risk singleton pregnancies between 38-40 weeks of gestation were included. Cervical length (in mm) was measured transvaginally by the principal investigator between 38 and 40 weeks. When the labour sets in the duration between cervical length measurement and the onset of labour, duration of labour and mode of delivery were noted. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to quantify the association between cervical length and time of onset of labour and duration of labour. Results: In the study, 164 low-risk patients (143 Primigravida patients+21 Multigravida patients) between 38-40 weeks were included. In patients with spontaneous onset of labour, 45 (70.3%) had labour onset within 120 hours (5 days) when cervical length was ≤30 mm, when compared with 7 (22.58%) when cervical length was >30 mm (p=0.001). In patients with cervical length ≤30 mm, vaginal delivery occurred in 47 (73.43%) (p=0.019). In women with induced labour with cervical length ≤30 mm, 13 (61.9%) had labour onset within 120 hours when compared to 15 (30.6%) in women with cervical length >30 mm (p=0.02). Vaginal delivery occurred in 5 (29.41%) of women when cervical length was ≤30 mm compared to 32 (65.30) in women when cervical length >30 mm which may be attributed to other causes. There was a significant positive correlation between cervical length and time of onset of labour (Correlation coefficient=0.221, p-value=0.004). There was a negative correlation between cervical length and duration of labour which was not statistically significant (Correlation coefficient=-0.108, p=0.25). There was no significant difference in mean cervical length measurement between vaginal delivery and caesarean section. Conclusion: Transvaginal cervical length measurement at term positively correlates with time of onset of labour but not with duration of labour and mode of delivery
引言:近年来,宫颈评估已经从数字检查转向超声检查。预测分娩的开始时间和足月分娩方式是孕妇及其亲属非常关心的问题。目的:通过阴道超声测量产程宫颈长度,预测分娩时间和分娩方式。材料和方法:本纵向研究于2021年3月至2021年8月在印度泰米尔纳德邦卡坦卡拉图尔SRM医学院医院和研究中心妇产科进行。所有38-40周的低风险单胎妊娠都包括在内。在38 - 40周期间,主要研究者经阴道测量宫颈长度(mm)。当分娩在测量宫颈长度和分娩开始之间的时间间隔内时,记录分娩持续时间和分娩方式。Pearson相关系数用于量化子宫颈长度与分娩开始时间和分娩持续时间之间的关系。结果:本研究纳入了164例38 ~ 40周的低危患者(143例初孕患者+21例多孕患者)。在自然发生分娩的患者中,45例(70.3%)在宫颈长度≤30 mm时120小时(5天)内发生分娩,而7例(22.58%)在宫颈长度≤30 mm时发生分娩(p=0.001)。宫颈长度≤30 mm的患者有47例(73.43%)发生阴道分娩(p=0.019)。在引产宫颈长度≤30 mm的妇女中,13例(61.9%)在120小时内分娩,而宫颈长度为bbb30 mm的妇女中有15例(30.6%)在120小时内分娩(p=0.02)。宫颈长度≤30毫米的妇女中有5人(29.41%)发生阴道分娩,而宫颈长度≤30毫米的妇女中有32人(65.30%)发生阴道分娩,这可能归因于其他原因。宫颈长度与临产时间呈正相关(相关系数=0.221,p值=0.004)。宫颈长度与产程呈负相关,但无统计学意义(相关系数=-0.108,p=0.25)。阴道分娩和剖宫产的平均宫颈长度测量无显著差异。结论:足月经阴道宫颈长度测量与分娩时间呈正相关,与产程和分娩方式无关

Introduction: It is a well known fact that diverse nutritional issues are associated with advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Cancer (HNSCC). In addition to poor nutrition, varying degrees of immunocompromisation has been noted in these patients and hence is important to study malnutrition and systemic immunity together. Aim: To determine correlation between nutritional status and systemic immunity in patients being treated for HNSCC. Materials and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at Cancer Research Institute (CRI) Dehradun, India for a period of 30 months (December 2018 and June 2021). A total of 159 HNSCC patients planned for treatment, were enrolled in the study. Data was collected pre-and posttreatment for disease based on the parameters- Performance Status (PS), nutritional status (weight, Body Mass Index (BMI), Mid Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) and haemoglobin. Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) Score and systemic immunity {Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR)} were measured too. Analysis was planned for node negative (N-) and node positive (N+) groups. One-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to check for normality of data, parametric and non parametric tests were used for association, Cochran's and Mantel-Haenszel Statistic was used to calculate Risk Ratio (RR), Pearson’s and Spearman’s coefficient test was used to assess the correlation. A p-value <0.05 was considered significant. Results: Total 159 patients were analysed, 72 in N- and 87 in N+ group. Mean age was 56.3±13.27 years, 142 (89.3%) patients were males, 57 (35.8%) patients were cT1/2, 97 (61%) cT3/4 and 5 (3.2%) cTx stage, 146 (92%) were PS 0-2 and 104 (65.4%) received multi-modality treatment. In pretreatment, malnutrition was found in 75 (47.2%) patients and median NLR was 3 (range 1-37). In N+ patients, median NLR was significantly higher in patients with ≥10% pretreatment weight loss, low MUAC and high SGA score pretreatment; in N- patients this association was present with only PS. A mild but statistically significant linear correlation was found for NLR with % pretreatment weight loss, BMI, haemoglobin; moderate correlation with weight, MUAC and SGA score in N+ group, but not in N- group. Conclusion: Poor nutritional status was significantly associated with raised NLR in node positive HNSCC patients with mild to moderate correlation, but this was not found in the node negative group.
简介:这是一个众所周知的事实,各种营养问题与晚期头颈部鳞状细胞癌(HNSCC)有关。除了营养不良外,这些患者还存在不同程度的免疫功能低下,因此将营养不良和全身免疫结合起来研究是很重要的。目的:探讨恶性鳞癌患者营养状况与全身免疫的关系。材料与方法:在印度德拉敦癌症研究所(CRI)进行了一项为期30个月(2018年12月至2021年6月)的前瞻性观察研究。共有159名计划接受治疗的HNSCC患者参加了这项研究。根据治疗前和治疗后的参数-表现状态(PS)、营养状况(体重、身体质量指数(BMI)、上臂中部围度(MUAC)和血红蛋白收集数据。同时测定患者的主观总体评价(SGA)评分和全身免疫{中性粒细胞/淋巴细胞比值(NLR)}。对节点阴性(N-)组和节点阳性(N+)组进行分析。采用单样本Kolmogorov-Smirnov检验检验数据的正态性,采用参数检验和非参数检验进行相关性分析,采用Cochran's和Mantel-Haenszel统计量计算风险比(RR),采用Pearson 's和Spearman 's系数检验评估相关性。p值<0.05为显著性。结果:共分析159例患者,N-组72例,N+组87例。平均年龄56.3±13.27岁,男性142例(89.3%),cT1/2期57例(35.8%),cT3/4期97例(61%),cTx期5例(3.2%),PS 0-2期146例(92%),综合治疗104例(65.4%)。预处理时,75例(47.2%)患者出现营养不良,NLR中位数为3(范围1-37)。在N+患者中,预处理体重减轻≥10%、MUAC低、SGA评分高的患者中位NLR显著更高;在N例患者中,这种相关性仅与PS存在。NLR与预处理体重减轻%、BMI、血红蛋白呈轻微但有统计学意义的线性相关;N+组与体重、MUAC、SGA评分有中等相关性,N-组无相关性。结论:在淋巴结阳性HNSCC患者中,营养状况不良与NLR升高有轻度至中度的相关性,而在淋巴结阴性组中没有发现这种相关性。

Introduction: Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer globally and the seventh most common cause of cancer-related mortality. Tobacco use, alcohol consumption, and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection are prominent risk factors for HNSCC. HPVpositive Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) differs from HPV-negative OSCC in terms of risk factors, preferential site of origin, age, histomorphological features, molecular genetic alterations, and prognosis. The prominent basaloid morphology and lobular growth of OSCCs are associated with p16 positivity and p53 negativity, respectively. Aim: To establish the immunohistochemical expression of p16 (p16INK4a) and p53 in OSCC and to assess their relationship with specific histomorphological features, in the form of solid growth of cells in a lobular configuration, small crowded cells with scant cytoplasm, dark hyperchromatic nuclei without nucleoli. Materials and Methods: The cross-sectional study involved fifty cases of OSCC over a two-year period from January 2017 to January 2019 at Army Hospital (R and R) Delhi Cantt. The intensity of p16 and p53 protein expression was graded as follows: no staining (0), weak staining (1), moderate staining (2), and strong staining (3). The proportion/percentage of staining for p16 and p53 protein expression was calculated as follows: 1-4% (1), 5-19% (2), 20-39% (3), 40-59% (4), 60-79% (5), and 80-100% (6) cells stained. A quick score of 0-1 (negative), 2-3 (weak positive), 4-5 (moderate positive), and >6 (strong positive) was assessed. Cross tables were generated and the Chi-square test was used for testing associations. The Statistical Software for Data Science (STATA)-14 was used for statistical analysis. Results: A total of 50 cases of OSCC were analysed for histomorphological features and immunohistochemical patterns of p16 and p53. The age distribution showed that 8 (16%), 9 (18%), 18 (36%), 13 (26%), and 2 (4%) of the patients were in the age groups of 31-40 years, 41-50 years, 51-60 years, 61-70 years, and above 70 years, respectively. The gender distribution noted 42 (84%) males and 8 (16%) females. Genital and nongenital mucosa are usually involved by HPV subtypes 6, 11, 16, 18, and 16, 18, 11, 13, 2, respectively. HPV-16 has been demonstrated in 90-95% of all HPV-positive HNSCC cases, followed by HPV-18, HPV-31, and HPV-33. p53 is considered the guardian of the genome and controls the expression and activity of proteins involved in cell cycle regulation, DNA repair, cellular senescence, and apoptosis. More than 50% of all primary HNSCC exhibit p53 mutation. Conclusion: A significant correlation was observed between age, dysplasia, keratinisation, basaloid morphology versus p16 expression, and lobular growth, histological grade versus p53. An inverse relationship between p16 and p53 expressions was observed. The immunohistochemical expression of p16 as an immunohistochemical marker of HPV, along with p53, is recommended. Du
头颈部鳞状细胞癌(HNSCC)是全球第六大常见癌症,也是癌症相关死亡的第七大常见原因。吸烟、饮酒和人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染是HNSCC的主要危险因素。hpv阳性口腔鳞状细胞癌(OSCC)与hpv阴性口腔鳞状细胞癌在危险因素、发病部位、年龄、组织形态学特征、分子遗传改变和预后方面存在差异。OSCCs的基底细胞形态和小叶生长分别与p16阳性和p53阴性相关。目的:建立p16 (p16INK4a)和p53在OSCC中的免疫组织化学表达,并评估它们与特定组织形态学特征的关系,这些特征表现为细胞呈小叶状固体生长,细胞质少的小拥挤细胞,细胞核深染而无核核。材料和方法:横断面研究包括2017年1月至2019年1月在德里坎特陆军医院(R and R)进行的50例OSCC病例。p16和p53蛋白表达强度分级为:无染色(0)、弱染色(1)、中等染色(2)、强染色(3)。p16和p53蛋白表达的染色比例/百分比计算为:1-4%(1)、5-19%(2)、20-39%(3)、40-59%(4)、60-79%(5)、80-100%(6)细胞染色。快速评分为0-1(阴性),2-3(弱阳性),4-5(中度阳性)和>6(强阳性)。生成交叉表,并使用卡方检验检验相关性。采用数据科学统计软件(STATA)-14进行统计分析。结果:分析50例OSCC的组织形态学特征和p16、p53的免疫组织化学图谱。年龄分布:31 ~ 40岁、41 ~ 50岁、51 ~ 60岁、61 ~ 70岁、70岁以上年龄组分别为8例(16%)、9例(18%)、18例(36%)、13例(26%)、2例(4%)。性别分布为男性42人(84%),女性8人(16%)。HPV亚型6、11、16、18和16、18、11、11、13、2通常分别累及生殖器和非生殖器粘膜。HPV-16在所有hpv阳性HNSCC病例中占90-95%,其次是HPV-18、HPV-31和HPV-33。p53被认为是基因组的守护者,它控制着参与细胞周期调节、DNA修复、细胞衰老和凋亡的蛋白质的表达和活性。超过50%的原发性HNSCC表现为p53突变。结论:年龄、发育不良、角化、基底细胞形态与p16表达、小叶生长、组织学分级与p53之间存在显著相关性。p16和p53的表达呈负相关。推荐将p16与p53一起作为HPV的免疫组织化学标记物。由于研究时间的限制,无法将p16和p53的表达与患者的生存进行相关性评估。

Acute Pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory condition with cumbersome side effects. Gastropancreatic (GI) fistula is a rare complication seen in cases with infected pancreatic or peripancreatic necrosis. GI fistulas can result in severe haemorrhage and septicemia. Hereby, the authors present a case of 36-year-old male with a chief complaint of abdominal pain associated with abdominal distension and non bilious vomiting after binge consumption of alcohol for the past 10 days. Computed Tomography (CT) scan showed the presence of free gas in the abdomen. Contrast-Enhanced CT (CECT) imaging revealed diffuse enlargement affecting the head, uncinate process, body, and tail of the pancreas. There were also a few necrotic peripancreatic fluid collections with extensive peripancreatic fat stranding. Based on these findings, the diagnosis of acute necrotising pancreatitis was suggested. Despite treatment with antibiotics and necrosectomy with drainage of the abscess collection, the patient showed no improvement. A repeat CECT examination was performed due to the deterioration of the patient’s clinical condition, which showed a complete non enhancing pancreas. Additionally, a large defect measuring approximately 16 mm was observed in the posteroinferior wall of the stomach at the middle third of the body, with extravasation of contrast material into the pancreatic collection, suggestive of fistula formation. Subsequently, the patient underwent pancreatic necrosectomy with closure of the gastric perforation using feeding jejunostomy. A follow-up CT examination was performed four days later due to the deteriorating status of the patient, as well as new onset haematemesis and bloody discharge from the surgical drain. The CT scan revealed a few peripancreatic soft tissue infiltrates adjacent to the pancreatic head. Persistent collections were noted along the anterolateral surface of the right psoas, extending to the adjoining right anterior pararenal space and the left anterolateral abdominal wall in the left hypochondriac region. Thickening of the bilateral lateroconal fascia and anterior and posterior renal fascia was observed, likely due to inflammation. Following this, the patient underwent another surgery, and percutaneous drainage was performed with antibiotic coverage. The patient showed a significant reduction in the collection and improved clinical condition after 10 days. Imaging plays a crucial role in diagnosing such complications, enabling early detection and reducing mortality in these patients.
急性胰腺炎(AP)是一种具有严重副作用的炎症性疾病。胃胰瘘是一种罕见的并发症,见于感染胰腺或胰周坏死的病例。胃肠道瘘管可导致严重出血和败血症。在此,作者提出一个病例,36岁的男性,主诉腹痛,腹胀和非胆汁性呕吐后,酗酒,过去10天。计算机断层扫描(CT)显示腹部有游离气体。增强CT (CECT)显示弥漫性增大,累及胰腺头、钩状突、体和尾。也有少量坏死的胰周积液伴广泛的胰周脂肪搁浅。基于这些发现,建议诊断为急性坏死性胰腺炎。尽管进行了抗生素治疗和坏死切开术并引流脓肿,但患者并没有好转。由于患者临床情况恶化,再次行CECT检查,显示胰腺完全无强化。此外,在身体中间三分之一的胃后下壁观察到约16mm的大缺损,造影剂外渗到胰腺集,提示形成瘘管。随后,患者行胰腺坏死切除术,并采用喂养式空肠造口术关闭胃穿孔。由于患者病情恶化,以及新发呕血和手术引流管出血,4天后复查CT。CT扫描显示胰头附近有少量胰腺周围软组织浸润。右腰肌前外侧表面可见持续性积液,并延伸至毗邻的右前肾旁间隙和左肋区的左前外侧腹壁。观察到双侧侧圆锥筋膜和前后肾筋膜增厚,可能是由于炎症所致。在此之后,患者接受了另一次手术,并在抗生素覆盖下进行了经皮引流。10天后,患者的收集量明显减少,临床状况有所改善。成像在诊断这些并发症中起着至关重要的作用,使这些患者能够早期发现并降低死亡率。

Introduction: Hyponatraemia is a frequently occurring electrolyte abnormality. Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion (SIADH) is one of the common causes of hyponatraemia. SIADH is a disorder of impaired water excretion caused by the inability to suppress the secretion of Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH). The importance of determining the cause of hyponatraemia as SIADH is not only to seek the aetiology of SIADH but also to treat appropriately. Aim: To determine the prevalence of SIADH in patients with hyponatraemia and its causes in these patients. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of General Medicine at Jubilee Mission Medical College and Hospital, Thrissur, Kerala, India. The study duration was one year and six months, from December 2014 to June 2016. A total of 100 individuals over the age of 18, who were admitted with serum sodium levels under 135 mEq/L, were chosen. Data on the causes of hyponatraemia and SIADH, laboratory evaluations, and assessments based on SIADH criteria were gathered using a structured proforma. The primary outcome variables included the aetiology of SIADH and the causes of hyponatraemia. Frequency and percentages were used to represent the data. The data were analysed using MS Excel. Results: Among 100 patients, the maximum number of patients with hyponatraemia were in the 59-78 years age group. Fortytwo (42) had severe hyponatraemia (Na < 120 mmol/L). The most common cause of hyponatraemia was drug intake (diuretics + antihypertensives), which constituted 42 (42%) of the total 100 patients, followed by SIADH in 33 (33%) patients. Among the aetiologies of SIADH, cerebrovascular accident was the most common (9/100), followed by pneumonia and Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) in five patients each. Among the non neurological symptoms, vomiting was the most common symptom in 28 (28%) patients, followed by lethargy in 15 (15%). Among the neurological symptoms associated with hyponatraemia, confusion was the predominant one seen in 10 (10%) patients, followed by drowsiness in 7 (7%). Conclusion: SIADH is an important cause of hyponatraemia with a high prevalence. The prevalence of SIADH in hyponatraemic patients was 33%. Among the aetiologies of SIADH, cerebrovascular accident was the most common.
低钠血症是一种常见的电解质异常。抗利尿激素分泌不当综合征(SIADH)是低钠血症的常见原因之一。SIADH是一种由无法抑制抗利尿激素(ADH)分泌引起的水排泄障碍。确定低钠血症作为SIADH的病因的重要性不仅在于寻求SIADH的病因,而且在于适当的治疗。目的:了解低钠血症患者SIADH的患病率及其原因。材料和方法:横断面研究是在印度喀拉拉邦特里苏瑟的朱比利教会医学院和医院的普通医学系进行的。研究时间为一年零六个月,从2014年12月至2016年6月。选取100名年龄在18岁以上、入院时血清钠水平低于135 mEq/L的患者。使用结构化格式收集低钠血症和SIADH病因、实验室评估和基于SIADH标准的评估数据。主要结局变量包括SIADH的病因学和低钠血症的原因。使用频率和百分比来表示数据。数据采用MS Excel进行分析。结果:100例患者中,低钠血症患者以59 ~ 78岁年龄组最多。42例(42例)发生严重低钠血症(Na <120更易/ L)。低钠血症最常见的原因是药物摄入(利尿剂+降压药),占100例患者的42例(42%),其次是SIADH 33例(33%)。在SIADH的病因中,脑血管意外最常见(9/100),其次是肺炎和选择性5 -羟色胺再摄取抑制剂(SSRIs),各5例。在非神经系统症状中,呕吐是28例(28%)患者最常见的症状,其次是嗜睡15例(15%)。在低钠血症相关的神经系统症状中,10例(10%)患者以精神错乱为主要症状,7例(7%)患者继之以嗜睡。结论:SIADH是低钠血症的重要病因,且发病率高。低钠血症患者的SIADH患病率为33%。在SIADH的病因中,脑血管意外是最常见的。

Percutaneous drains are commonly used to drain collections in surgical patients. The choice of drain can determine the potential complications. Herein, the authors presented a case of a 32- year-old female with a drain complication and its management in a posttransplant patient. The patient developed a post-transplant perigraft lymphocele and underwent drainage using Malecot’s catheter. However, during the removal of drain, the Malecot catheter accidentally broke, leaving the tip inside the perigraft region. To locate the tip, a non-contrast Computed Tomography (CT) scan was performed. Subsequently, the patient underwent a transperitoneal reexploration, successfully removing the tip. It was discovered that the catheter tip had ingrown tissue between the prongs, impeding its removal. It is crucial to exercise caution in such situations as Malecot catheters may sometimes have ingrown tissue between the prongs, hindering their removal.
经皮引流通常用于外科病人的收集物引流。引流管的选择可以决定潜在的并发症。在此,作者报告了一例32岁女性移植后患者的引流管并发症及其处理。患者出现移植后移植物周围淋巴囊肿,采用Malecot导管引流。然而,在取出引流管的过程中,Malecot导管意外破裂,将导管尖端留在了周围区域。为了定位尖端,进行了非对比计算机断层扫描(CT)。随后,患者接受了经腹腔再探查,成功地切除了尖端。人们发现导管尖端在尖头之间有向内生长的组织,阻碍了它的移除。在这种情况下,谨慎行事是至关重要的,因为Malecot导管有时可能在尖头之间有向内生长的组织,阻碍了它们的移除。

Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome (WHS), also known as Chromosome 4 deletion syndrome, is a rare hereditary disease with a prevalence of 1 in 50,000. It occurs due to the microdeletion of the short arm of chromosome 4, specifically the 4p16.3 domain. Patients with WHS exhibit diverse phenotypes, including growth retardation, developmental delay, congenital heart disease, and convulsions, depending on the amount of deleted genetic material. This case report focuses on a 25-year-old male who was admitted for cataract extraction and posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation. Through gene analysis, the patient was diagnosed with WHS. He exhibited micrognathia, a short neck, kyphoscoliosis, seizure disorder, and mental retardation. Additionally, he had severe kyphoscoliosis, which resulted in restrictive lung disease. These abnormalities posed significant challenges for anaesthetic management. To ensure a successful general anaesthesia, adequate preparedness for difficult airway management was crucial. A thorough cardiovascular and neuromuscular examination was conducted preoperatively to rule out associated anomalies and minimise complications. The patient’s perioperative antiepileptic cover was continued. Extubation proved challenging due to the patient’s mental retardation and restrictive lung disease. This case underscores the importance of effective anaesthetic management for patients with this rare condition undergoing cataract surgery under general anaesthesia.
狼-赫希霍恩综合征(WHS),也被称为4号染色体缺失综合征,是一种罕见的遗传性疾病,患病率为五万分之一。它的发生是由于4号染色体短臂的微缺失,特别是4p16.3结构域。WHS患者表现出多种表型,包括生长迟缓、发育迟缓、先天性心脏病和抽搐,这取决于缺失遗传物质的数量。本病例报告集中于一位25岁男性,因白内障摘除及后房型人工晶状体植入术而入院。通过基因分析,诊断为WHS。他表现出小颌、短颈、脊柱后凸、癫痫和智力迟钝。此外,他有严重的脊柱后凸,导致限制性肺部疾病。这些异常对麻醉管理提出了重大挑战。为了确保全身麻醉的成功,对困难的气道管理做好充分的准备是至关重要的。术前进行了全面的心血管和神经肌肉检查,以排除相关异常并尽量减少并发症。患者继续围手术期抗癫痫治疗。由于患者智力低下和限制性肺部疾病,拔管具有挑战性。本病例强调了在全身麻醉下进行白内障手术的罕见患者有效麻醉管理的重要性。

Dengue is a viral illness in humans caused by the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes, mostly Aedes aegypti and also Aedes albopictus. There are four serotypes of the Dengue virus that cause infection in humans and may lead to a variety of complications. Myocarditis and cardiomyopathy can occur in several viral and non viral infections, increasing morbidity and mortality. Nephropathy may also arise in dengue fever, causing complications. The case presented here involved both complications, nephropathy and cardiomyopathy, posing treatment challenges in terms of altering fluid and electrolyte status, which hindered fluid therapy as fluid overload would be detrimental. However, the complications were reversible with the normalisation of echocardiography and urea and creatinine levels. Long-term follow-up is necessary to monitor cardiac and renal function, as some patients may progress to Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). The patient presented with fever, headache, vomiting, and haematuria, along with signs of fluid overload. There was a past history of fever, and since both Immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgM Dengue antibodies were positive, this may be a case of a second episode of dengue fever causing complications. This case report emphasises the diagnostic and treatment challenges in a dengue patient with cardiomyopathy and nephropathy, where excessive fluid replacement may increase morbidity and mortality. Additionally, long-term follow-up of these patients is necessary.
登革热是一种人类病毒性疾病,由受感染的伊蚊叮咬引起,主要是埃及伊蚊和白纹伊蚊。登革热病毒有四种血清型,可引起人类感染,并可能导致各种并发症。心肌炎和心肌病可发生在几种病毒性和非病毒性感染,增加发病率和死亡率。登革热也可能引起肾病,引起并发症。本病例涉及并发症,肾病和心肌病,在改变体液和电解质状态方面提出了治疗挑战,这阻碍了液体治疗,因为液体过载将是有害的。然而,随着超声心动图、尿素和肌酐水平的正常化,并发症是可逆的。长期随访监测心脏和肾脏功能是必要的,因为一些患者可能发展为慢性肾脏疾病(CKD)。患者表现为发热、头痛、呕吐和血尿,并伴有体液过量的迹象。既往有发热史,由于免疫球蛋白G (IgG)和IgM登革热抗体均呈阳性,这可能是登革热第二次发作,引起并发症。本病例报告强调了诊断和治疗登革热患者心肌病和肾病的挑战,其中过度补液可能增加发病率和死亡率。此外,这些患者的长期随访是必要的。

Introduction: Endophthalmitis is a serious, sight-threatening purulent inflammation of the intraocular cavities of the eyeball. It greatly affects vision and can lead to severe complications such as panophthalmitis. The prevalence of endophthalmitis varies from one place to another. Aim: To identify the various aetiological and predisposing factors that contribute to endophthalmitis and to assess the visual outcomes following medical intervention (intravitreal antibiotics only) and surgical intervention (both intravitreal antibiotics and pars plana vitrectomy). Materials and Methods: The present study was conducted in the Department of Ophthalmology at Trichy SRM Medical College Hospital and Research Centre, Trichy, Tamil Nadu, India between January 2023 and February 2023. Demographic and clinical data of patients diagnosed with endophthalmitis over a two year period from October 2020 to September 2022 were collected from the Medical Records Department of the Institution for analysis. A total of 50 case records were selected using convenience sampling. Demographic details such as age, gender, predisposing risk factors, visual acuity, microbiological profiles, treatment modalities, and final visual acuity were collected from the present study. Quantitative data was presented as Mean and Standard Deviation (SD), while qualitative data was presented as frequencies and percentages. Summary statistics were analysed using Microsoft Excel version 2018. Results: In present study, 29 (58%) were males and 21 (42%) were females, with the majority falling within the age group of 50-70 years. The mean age of the sample was 53.8±16.1 years. Postoperative causes accounted for 39 (78%) of the cases, with phacoemulsification surgery with foldable intraocular lens implantation being the leading cause in 23 (58.7%) cases. Culture positivity was observed in only 22 (44%) cases, with Staphylococcus (Staph) epidermidis as the major causative organism. The best visual acuity achieved was 6/12 for two patients. Conclusion: Postoperative endophthalmitis remains the most common cause of endophthalmitis. Additionally, patients who presented with better visual acuity had a better visual outcome after treatment. Therefore, patients should be educated about the early signs of endophthalmitis to ensure prompt medical attention and improve visual recovery
眼内炎是一种严重的、威胁视力的眼内腔化脓性炎症。它会严重影响视力,并可能导致严重的并发症,如全眼炎。眼内炎的发病率因地而异。目的:确定导致眼内炎的各种病因和易感因素,并评估药物干预(仅玻璃体内抗生素)和手术干预(玻璃体内抗生素和玻璃体切割)后的视力结果。材料和方法:本研究于2023年1月至2023年2月在印度泰米尔纳德邦特里希SRM医学院医院和研究中心眼科进行。从2020年10月至2022年9月的两年间,从该机构的医疗记录部收集诊断为眼内炎的患者的人口学和临床数据进行分析。采用方便抽样法选取50份病例记录。从本研究中收集了年龄、性别、易感危险因素、视力、微生物谱、治疗方式和最终视力等人口统计学细节。定量数据以均数和标准差(SD)表示,定性数据以频率和百分比表示。汇总统计数据采用Microsoft Excel 2018版进行分析。结果:本组患者中男性29例(58%),女性21例(42%),年龄以50 ~ 70岁居多。患者平均年龄53.8±16.1岁。术后原因39例(78%),其中超声乳化手术合并折叠式人工晶状体植入术23例(58.7%)。培养阳性22例(44%),主要病原菌为表皮葡萄球菌(Staph)。2例患者最佳视力达到6/12。结论:术后眼内炎仍是眼内炎最常见的病因。此外,表现出较好视力的患者在治疗后的视力结果也较好。因此,患者应了解眼内炎的早期症状,以确保及时就医并改善视力恢复

Introduction: Stillbirth is defined as a baby born with no signs of life after a given threshold. It is a sensitive indicator of quality of care received by the mother during antepartum and intrapartum period. There has been a renewed focus on stillbirth in the backdrop of COVID-19 pandemic, as pregnant women are at an increased risk for severe form of COVID-19 and are associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. Aim: To estimate the prevalence of stillbirths and its characteristics during the pandemic and also, to classify the causes of stillbirths according to the International Classification of Diseases for use in Perinatal Mortality (ICD-PM) classification. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Government Medical College, Thrissur, Kerala, India, during the COVID-19 pandemic from 1st August 2021 to 30th July 2022. A total of 106 mothers, who gave birth to stillbirths after 28 weeks of gestation were included in the study. When gestational age was not sure, stillbirth weighing more than 500 grams was considered as the inclusion criteria. Foetus, placenta, cord and membranes were examined after the delivery. The parameters studied were age, domicile, income, gestational age, order of pregnancy, mode of delivery, timing of foetal death, baby weight, gender, presence of anomalies and maternal medical complications. The causes were classified according to International Classification of Diseases-10-to Perinatal Mortality (ICD-PM) classification system. Categorical variables were assessed by Chi-square test and continuous variables were assessed by unpaired Student’s t-test. Results: There were 106 stillbirths with a Stillbirth Rate (SBR) of 38.78 per 1000 births. Major proportions of stillbirths were antepartum. Mean maternal age was 28.7±4.7 years. There were 73 (68.86) rural women and 33 (31.1%) urban women with stillbirths. A total of 90 (84.9%) cases were referral, while 16 (15.1%) were registered in the Institute for antenatal care. A total of 67 (63.2%) stillborns were male babies, but there was no significant difference in SBR, according to the order of pregnancy. Causes were classified according to the ICDPM classification system. Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (36.79%) and the foetal growth restriction (39.62%) were the common maternal and foetal condition identified among the cases. There were 22 COVID-19 positive cases, but they were also having hypertension as co-morbidity. Conclusion: In present study, antepartum stillbirth was the commonest type and occurred mostly in referral cases from periphery. Hypertensive diseases in pregnancy and foetal growth restriction were the leading causes. Early detection of high-risk conditions and timely referral, may reduce the rate of stillbirth.
导读:死产被定义为在给定阈值后没有生命迹象的婴儿。它是母亲在产前和分娩期间接受护理质量的敏感指标。在2019冠状病毒病大流行的背景下,死产问题再次受到关注,因为孕妇患重症COVID-19的风险增加,并与不良围产期结局有关。目的:估计大流行期间死产的流行率及其特征,并根据《国际围产期死亡率疾病分类》(ICD-PM)分类对死产的原因进行分类。材料和方法:本横断面研究于2021年8月1日至2022年7月30日COVID-19大流行期间在印度喀拉拉邦Thrissur政府医学院妇产科进行。共有106名在怀孕28周后产下死胎的母亲参与了这项研究。当胎龄不确定时,死胎重量大于500克被视为纳入标准。分娩后检查胎儿、胎盘、脐带及胎膜。研究的参数包括年龄、住所、收入、胎龄、怀孕顺序、分娩方式、死胎时间、婴儿体重、性别、是否存在异常和产妇并发症。根据国际疾病分类-10-围产期死亡率(ICD-PM)分类系统对病因进行分类。分类变量采用卡方检验,连续变量采用非配对学生t检验。结果:死产106例,死产率为38.78 / 1000。死产主要发生在产前。产妇平均年龄28.7±4.7岁。农村妇女有73例(68.86),城市妇女有33例(31.1%)。共有90例(84.9%)病例转诊,16例(15.1%)在研究所登记产前护理。男死胎67例(63.2%),但根据妊娠顺序,SBR差异无统计学意义。根据ICDPM分类系统对原因进行分类。妊娠期高血压疾病(36.79%)和胎儿生长受限(39.62%)是本组常见的母胎状况。新冠肺炎阳性22例,同时伴有高血压。结论:在本研究中,产前死产是最常见的类型,多发生在周边转诊病例中。妊娠期高血压疾病和胎儿生长受限是主要原因。早期发现高危情况并及时转诊,可降低死产率。
