    Society looks down upon the birth of transgenders due to genetic mutations. In her autobiography, Padmini says that transgenders should be aware of the mental barriers, dilemmas and physical problems within themselves, create clear good thinking and live with self-confidence. It should be clear that there is transgender just as the human race is male and female. Padmini Prakash's autobiography Nerupatril Neenthi Vandhen (I Swam in the Fire) tells us that we need to respect the spirit of transgenders who are born as one of us and want to live with us. The struggles of transgenders in the society and their names, their inhibitions in society now, the changes made by the social reform thinkers are recorded. Padmini proudly records the achievements of transgenders, social service, work session, making a mark for themselves and gaining their identity in life

    Objective: Momordica charantia (MC) (bitter gourd) is known traditionally to possess medicinal values. This edible vegetable is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and has been studied for its bronchospasm preventive action. With the recent development in nanoformulations, this study was done to identify the effectiveness of MC nanoformulation in comparison to crude MC formulation in protecting animal from histamine-induced bronchospasm. Methods: The optimized MC nanoformulation was prepared with polyethylene glycol and soy phosphatidylcholine. The MC crude powder was prepared by drying in hot air oven and grinding in a blender. Eight guinea pigs of both sexes were given once daily MC nanoformulation per oral by mixing with water for 7 days. Evaluation of the formulation was done on the 2nd, 4th, and 6th h on day 1 and day 7 after administration of MC for protection in developing pre-convulsive dyspnea due to histamine-induced bronchospasm. Results: An analysis of variance test revealed statistically significant results in the protection of animals from developing bronchospasm after treatment with the MC nanoformulation in comparison to the control values. About 75% of animals were protected from developing bronchospasm on day 7 attributing to the cumulative effect of nanoformulation. Conclusion: The study proved that the MC nanoformulation could effectively prevent histamine-induced bronchospasm in guinea pigs

    Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS) is an acute, autoimmune, frequently severe, polyradiculoneuropathy. GBS affects all ages and it has a slight male preponderance. It is a symmetrical, predominantly motor, flaccid and areflexic paralysis with a clinical progression of the disease usually for a period of 4 weeks. The mean age group of our study population was 35.77 years. The respective age group related percentages are as follows. 38% of the patients were in the age group of 21-30 years, 28% of the patients in the age group of 31-40 years, 20% in 41-50 years, 8% in 51-60 years, 6% in 61-70 years. 66% of the patients were males and 34% of the patients were females. GBS cases occurred in maximum number during our study period of July comprising 36%, August-30%, June-28%, September-6%. The average duration of hospital stay was 21.2 days. 22% of the patients had preceding events. RTI was present in 55% of the patients and AGE was present in 10% of the patients

    BACKGROUND: Acute encephalitis syndrome (AES) is defined as the acute-onset of fever and a change in mental status (including signs and symptoms such as confusion, disorientation, delirium or coma) and/or new-onset of seizures (excluding simple febrile seizures) in a person of any age at any time of the year. Acute viral encephalitis is the most common cause of acute encephalitis syndrome (AES). AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To study the etiological profile of children with acute encephalitis syndrome, to identify the most common pattern of clinical presentation and to study the immediate outcome in children with AES. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 56 patients with AES who were hospitalized in the Department of Paediatrics, Govt Theni medical college, Theni during July 2016 to June 2017 were followed during hospitalization. All were subjected to detailed clinical examination and investigated along with viral diagnostic studies on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples to determine the aetiology of AES. RESULTS: The prevalence of AES was 1.03%. Most common age group affected is below 1 year. Male children are more affected than females with a ratio of 1.4:1. Most common presenting symptom was fever with altered sensorium (85.7%). Mechanical ventilation was needed in18 patients (32.1%). GCS was < 8 in 14(25%) patients. Out of 56 cases aetiology was confirmed in 13 cases (23.2%). Out of which bacterial aetiology was found in 5 cases (8.9%) followed by tuberculous aetiology in 3 cases. Among 5 viral aetiology 3 cases were found to be varicella encephalitis. Out of 56 patients 34 (61%) were recovered fully, 10 patients (12.5%) had sequelae, 7 children (12.5%) expired. The predictors of the poor outcome were Poor GCS at presentation, Need for mechanical ventilation, Hyponatremia, Abnormal neuro imaging. CONCLUSION: In 68% of cases the etiology is not known. Consideration should be given to detection of these AES etiologies. This will directly impact the formulation of health policies of AES in India. Which includes identifying targets for immunization, chart preventive strategies and implement appropriate control measures, especially in outbreak situations and formulating other public health interventions

    In vitro multiplication protocol for Curcuma mangga : Studies on carbon, cytokinin source and explant size

    Mango ginger (Curcuma mangga Valeton &amp; Zijp.) is an underutilized rhizomatous species that has been valued in tropical Asian countries as a source of vegetable, spice, salad, medicine, and essential oil. This species is hardy and requires less care for obtaining good yields. Rhizomes are the commonly used propagules for the species, which are also the economic part of the crop. Huge quantity of seed rhizomes is required to promote this crop in larger areas. An efficient in vitro multiplication protocol is one of the options to meet the planting material requirement. Effects of carbon source (glucose, fructose and sucrose) and concentration (1 and 3%, w/v), cytokinins (BAP and meta topolin) and concentration (1 mg/L and 2 mg/L), size of explants (one/ two/ three bud) and IBA treatment (0, 250, 500 and 1,000 mg/L) for concurrent ex vitro rooting cum hardening were studied. Results revealed that for facilitating efficient multiplication, the medium should be supplemented with glucose (3%) as a carbon source and meta topolin (1 mg/L) as cytokinin. Two-bud explant should be used for subculture as it promoted superior shoot proliferation. Concurrent ex vitro rooting cum hardening was possible even without auxin treatment. The present protocol could be useful for large-scale production of quality planting material of this underexploited tropical species

    Knee pain is one of the most frequent musculoskeletal problems among the middle-aged and elderly people and ‘Osteoarthritis’ is the widespread clinical pathology of the knee. Objective: The present study was conducted to evaluate whether low frequency Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field (PEMF) therapy is effective in patients with osteoarthritis knee using surface Electromyography (sEMG) of vastus medialis. Methods: The participants were subjected to Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy using the PULSATRON&nbsp; instrument designed by Madras Institute of Magnetobiology, Anna nagar. They were given PEMF therapy of 10 Hz for 60 minutes/ day for 21 days with a break after every 6 days. The participants of the study were subjected to Electromyography of vastus medialis using the MEDICAID PHYSIOPAC machine. The findings are compared before and after the duration of PEMF therapy. Results: The study shows that Low frequency PEMF (10 Hz) can be used as a treatment modality for Osteoarthritis. PEMF therapy, when given for a sufficient time (21 days) can improve the stiffness and the power of muscles as seen by the increase in amplitude of electromyography. The mean amplitude of sEMG in vastus medialis was found to be significantly increased (p &lt;0.001) in the study group following the Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field (PEMF) therapy
