Background and Objective: Cognitive deficit is one of the symptoms of schizophrenia due to altered acetyl cholinesterase levels and thus treated by cholinesterase inhibitors like neostigmine. We studied the cognitive and immunohistochemical effect of Neostigmine on Ketamine induced cognitive deficit in rats.
A primigravida presented with severe oligohydramnios and breech presentation with fetal distress. She underwent emergency cesarean section. The baby had multiple anomalies including Potter’s facies, phocomelia, mesomelia, renal dysplasia and anomalies of external genitalia. Baby died immediately after birth. MRI and foetal dissection showed findings correlating with Ulbright-Hodes syndrome or Renal dysplasia – limb defects syndrome (RL Syndrome). This is a very rare autosomal recessive congenital disorder.
Introduction: Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is one of the treatment modalities for end-stage renal disease. The most important advantage of CAPD over hemodialysis is that it endows patients the liberty to perform daily activities and also is technically simpler. However, there is only limited long-term effectiveness of CAPD because of various complications. Dialysate leakage is a major noninfectious complication of peritoneal dialysis. This paper presents a peritoneal dialysis patient with late pericatheter leak.
Nutrition is expanding to reach all components of health care including dentistry. Diet can affect oral health via numerous mechanisms. The health of oral tissues can be affected by nutrition, diet and oral habits. The documented associations between oral health and systemic health demonstrates the need for dentists to become more knowledgeable about systemic nutrition which affects the normal growth, development and maintenance of the dental structures, promotes the immunity necessary for wound healing and affects resistance to oral infections.
The current therapeutic strategy for multiple myeloma has witnessed a dramatic improvement when compared with the rhubarb pill and infusion of orange peel that were used in 1844. It is still an incurable disease but the introduction of novel therapies have altered the natural course of the disease, transforming it into a chronic disease from a terminal illness.
Introduction: Placenta is directly related to the growth and development of the fetus in utero. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are strongly associated with fetal growth restriction, prematurity, contributing largely to perinatal mortality and morbidity.
Aims and Objectives: 1. Identification of morphological changes in placenta in patients with PIH.
2.Correlating these changes which may contribute or cause adverse pregnancy or fetal outcome.
In the present study freshwater commercially cultivable catfish Clarias batrachus was used to evaluate the combined effect of lambda cyhalothrin, a synthetic pyrethroid and chlorpyrifos, an organophosphate insecticide widely used in agricultural fields. Clarias batrachus uses rice paddy slurries as its breeding and nursery grounds, inhabit sediments as they are benthic and are posed to greater threat from sediment associated toxic compounds such as pyrethroids and organophosphates mixtures which are widely used in rice fields today to control rice pests.
The aim of this study was to test the effect of plants regulators on shoots multiplication in cassava cv TMS 92/0326 grown in liquid media with addition of 6-bezylaminopurine (BAP), and α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). Nodal segments (1.5 cm height) were used as explants and kept in vitro MS media containing also mio-inositol (100 mg l-1) and sucrose (30 g l-1). The pH of the media was adjusted to 5.8 before autoclaving. The nodal cuttings produced callus. These callus were yellowish and friable. The highest percentage of callogenesis 69.8% was obtained with 0.07 mg l-1 NAA.
Yam is a crop that is found in tropical areas. It greatly contribute to populations food in these areas, namely in Africa. In Côte d’Ivoire, yam is the first among food crops with an annual production of 5.8 million tons in 2013. In spite of the importance of this food crop, it is noticed a weak level of yield due to the lack of planting material for plantation establishment. Moreover, there is a decraese of Malgré l’importance de cette culture, il est constaté à une insuffisance de la production liée au manque de semenceaux pour l’établissement de plantations.
A microplot experiment was conducted during kharif and rabi seasons of crop years 2010-12in New Delhi, to study the effect of continuous or cyclic tillage on yield performance and nutrient uptake of wheat in soybean–wheat cropping system. The treatments consisted of conventional tillage (CT) and zero-tillage (ZT),and residue management of soybean residue (SR) and/or wheat (WR).The experiment was laid out in microplots (with the size of 4 x 1 m) in RBD with two replications.
