AN OBSERVATIONAL STUDY OF CLINICAL AND HEMATOLOGICAL PROFILE OF CIRRHOSIS OF LIVER
Get PDFObjective: Efforts can be made to normalize the hematological parameters so that the morbidity and mortality in these patients could be effectively reduced.
Methods: This observational study was carried out among 69 cirrhosis patients that fulfills the inclusion and exclusion criteria, attended the medicine outpatient department, and admitted in medicine ward of PRM Medical College and Hospital, Baripada, Dist. Mayurbhanj, Odisha, India, from June 2018 to January 2019.
Results: In our study, we had 59 male and 10 female patients with an average age of 49.8±13.19 years. About 92.75% of the patients were alcoholic. Abdominal distension (92.75%) and ascites (84.06%) were the most common presenting complaints. Pallor was present in 42 (60.87%) cases. Splenomegaly was present in 35 (50.72%) cirrhotic patients. Renal dysfunction was present in 23 (33.33%) cases. Sixty-six (95.65%) patients had anemia and 47 (68.12%) patients had thrombocytopenia.
Conclusions: From this study, we can conclude that, in cirrhosis of liver patients, various hematological changes are very common which need to be identified and corrected early to reduce morbidity and mortality

Get PDFA mixed quadrature rule of higher precision for approximate evaluation of real definite integrals has been constructed using an anti-Lobatto rule. The analytical convergence of the rule has been studied. The relative efficiencies of the mixed quadrature rule has been shown with the help of suitable test integrals. The error bound has been determined asymptotically

No full textLeprosy in children is of special importance as it is the indicator of transmission in community. It affects both the child and family members psychologically and functionally. In this review, we will discuss regarding epidemiology of childhood leprosy in detail, types of leprosy in children, diagnostic difficulties in children, prevention of disabilities in children, and effect of childhood leprosy on the community

No full textEffect of plasma treatment on crease recovery finish of linen with carboxylic acid
Get PDF470-474The effect of helium plasma treatment has been investigated on crease recovery finish of linen fabric using carboxylic acid as crosslinker. After the plasma treatment, 5% increase in wet pickup is observed compared to the control fabric.
This plasma treated sample is crosslinked with butyl tetracarboxylic acid (BTCA). The significant increase in crease recovery angle is found as compared to the untreated crosslinked fabric. However, significant reduction in tearing is
also observed in both the cases. Tearing strength could be improved to acceptable range by adding silicone softener during cross-linking process. The untreated and plasma-treated fabrics are analyzed by scanning electron microscope and
ATR-FTIR spectroscopy to investigate the changes in surface morphology and surface functional groups
Polyacrylonitrile and polylactic acid blend nanofibre spinning using needleless electrospinning technique
No full text117-123In this work, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and polylactic acid (PLA) blended polymers have been used to prepare a flexible
and partially biodegradable electrospun nanofibre sheet suitable for filtration application. Also, acetone has been used as a
replacement of dimethyl formamide (DMF) during spinning and a needleless (wire electrode) electrospinning machine has
been used for filament preparation. Initially, PAN fibre is spun with DMF and various parameters, such as polymer
concentration, voltage, distance between electrodes and RH%, are standardised. With these standard parameters, PLA is
then added with PAN, and PLA concentration is optimised without affecting the desired fibre diameter. Further, the amount
of acetone with DMF is also standardised without affecting the fibre diameter. Finally, polymer concentration of 2.5% PAN
with 0.5% of PLA, a potential difference of 55 kV, electrode distance of 125mm at 35% RH and 10% acetone are found
suitable for getting the desired nanofibre with minimum diameter
