Pregnancy in rudimentary horn

Pregnancy in rudimentary horn is rare occurrence with incidence of less than 1 in 150,000. Pregnant rudimentary horn can present with wide range of symptoms that may be similar to ectopic pregnancy or may remain silent with features of normal pregnancy. Management is typically resection of the rudimentary horn and the ipsilateral fallopian tube by either laparotomy or laparoscopy

Fabric Fault Detection Using Digital Image Processing

This paper helps to detect the fault in fabric. For the good quality of fabric the inspection of fabric is very important .The faults in fabric causes poor quality in fabric. This may affects the economical growth of the Industry. The old methods which are used for fault detection such as Human Visual Inspection, Regular Band based Methodology, Gabor Wavelet Filter Methodology etc which are time consuming &stressful. So to reduce time and stress the new method introduced is Automatic Fabric fault inspection .Due to this method, at the time of manufacturing itself we get high quality fabric it implies the high speed of production.The detection of local fabric defects is one of the most problems in computer vision.For this problem the solution is that at the time of manufacturing fabric in textile the faults present on fabric are identified by MATLAB software using some Image Processing techniques. Image Processing is very helpful because all the techniques applied on the faulty image is useful to acquire fault free image

VARIATIONS OF ORIGIN AND DISTANCE OF AXILLARY NERVE: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY

Background: Axillary nerve, one of the terminal branches of posterior cord of brachial plexus is more prone for injuries. Lack of proper anatomical knowledge and variations of axillary nerve leads to risk of nerve injuries. The present study describes the origin of axillary nerve, its distance of origin from tip of coracoids process. Method: Thirty brachial plexuses from fifteen formalin fixed human cadavers of both the sexes were studied by dissection method. Origin and branching pattern of axillary nerve and its distance of origin from the anteromedial aspect of tip of coracoid process & posterolateral aspect of acromion process was recorded. Results: Out of the 30 specimens studied, axillary nerve was originating from the posterior cord of brachial plexus in 90% of specimens, remaining 10% specimens showed a common trunk of origin of axillary nerve from posterior cord of brachial plexus. The mean distance of origin of axillary nerve from the anteromedial aspect of tip of coracoid process and posterolateral aspect of acromion process is 3.98cm & 6.30cm respectively. The axillary nerve terminated into anterior and posterior branch within quadrangular space in 29 specimens. In one specimen articular branch for shoulder joint was not directly arising from axillary nerve instead it is arising from anterior branch of axillary nerve. Conclusion: In studied population Axillary nerves display variations in the origin and distance of origin. Knowledge of this variation in axillary nerve is very important to clinicians, anaesthetists and orthopaedic surgeons during surgical exploration of neck, axilla and upper arm, shoulder dislocation, infraclavicular brachial plexus block and fracture of surgical neck of humerus.

Complications of female sterilization procedure: review over a decade at district tertiary care hospital

Background: Female sterilization is the most requested permanent contraceptive method worldwide and one of the most frequently performed elective, intra-abdominal surgical procedure in reproductive-age women. Even though considered as simple and safe procedure, complications do occur including death.Methods: The primary objective of the following study is to determine the demographic patterns of women presenting as sterilization complications and secondary is to evaluate possible etiological factors leading to complications and lay standard guidelines to reduce complication rate.Results: Over a decade, 103 cases of female sterilization related complications were documented, out of 14 cases (13.6%) were of laparoscopic tubal ligation and rest 89 were minilaparotomy (86.4%). In 3 cases tubal ligation was not performed as surgeon was not able to either open peritoneal cavity or find fallopian tubes due to adhesions (2.91%). In 70 cases (67.96%) sterilization were performed in primary health centre (PHC). Four patients (3.88%) required hospital stay of more than a month with longest stay being 43 days. Exploratory laparotomy with surgical intervention was done in 34 cases (33%). Two patients (1.94%) died due to tubectomy complications due to septicemia and encephalitis.Conclusions: Female sterilization is very popular and commonly performed permanent method of sterilization but complications can happen and many of them are preventable with proper screening and selection of cases with proper evaluation before surgery. There is a need to have proper training in sterilization and to stick to standards of sterilization procedure to minimize chances of complications

DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF A SIMPLE UV SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC METHOD FOR THE ESTIMATION OF SALBUTAMOL SULPHATE FROM PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS

Objective: The present study was undertaken to develop a rapid, simple, specific and economic ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometric method for estimating the Salbutamol Sulphate (SS) in pharmaceutical formulations. Methods: The analysis was performed at λ max 276 nm using Sorenson’s isotonic phosphate buffer pH 7 (SIPB pH 7) as blank/diluent. The method was validated by following the analytical performance parameters as suggested by International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) which included accuracy, precision, linearity. Results: The drug follows the beer’s lambert’s law in the concentration range of 12.5-37.5μg/ml and exhibited good correlation coefficient (0.9997) and excellent mean recovery. Percentage RSD for precision and accuracy of the method was found to be less than 2%. This method was successfully applied for the determination of the Salbutamol Sulphate in commercial brands of Indian market and the results were in good agreement with the label claims. The developed method was suitable and specific to the analysis of Salbutamol Sulphate even in the presence of common excipients. Conclusion: The obtained results proved that the validated method can be employed for the routine analysis of Salbutamol Sulphate in bulk as well as in the commercial formulations

Shikarpur lithic assemblage: New questions regarding Rohri chert blade production

Recent excavations at Shikarpur, a fortified Harappan site situated near the Gulf of Kuchchh in Gujarat, Western India, brought to light a large collection of Rohri chert blades.  Chert found in the Rohri hill near Sukkur in Sindh, central Pakistan is distinctive and easily identifiable. The wide distribution of standardized Rohri chert blades is often regarded as a testimony to the Harappan efficiency in long distance trade and craft production.  The possibility of localized production of Rohri chert blades in Gujarat is often negated due to the constraints of raw-material availability.  The absence of Rohri chert working debitage from most of the sites in Gujarat, has lent support to this position. The Shikarpur Rohri blade assemblage however incorporates more than 650 blades, a large fluted blade-core and a few Rohri chert debitage.  These have led the excavators to suggest that some of the blades found at Shikarpur were locally produced from raw materials brought to the site from the Rohri hills.  Typo-technological features of the Rohri chert assemblage from Shikarpur have been analysed in this background. These along with metrical features of the assemblage are compared with Rohri chert assemblages from other major Harappan sites in the region to check the validity of the proposed ‘limited local production’

Effect of post-emergence herbicide imazethapyr on phenological and agronomic traits in chickpea breeding lines

Chickpea is sensitive to herbicides and manual weeding is currently the only option for weed control in many developing countries in arid and semi-arid regions of the world. The farmers in these countries need herbicide-tolerant varieties to use post-emergence herbicides to control weeds. In this direction, a study was conducted with 21 breeding lines at four locations in India (Patancheru, Bijapur, Nandyal and Sehore) during postrainy season of 2014-15. The trial was conducted under field conditions in RBD with four replications in both control (hand weeding) and sprayed (herbicide: Imazethapyr @ 750 ml/ha) treatments. The herbicide was sprayed 30 days after sowing. Herbicide effect was studied on phenological (days to flowering and maturity) and agronomic (number of primary and secondary branches, plant height, seed yield, 100-seed weight and harvest index) traits. The results indicated that time to flowering and maturity was delayed up to 16.5 and 18.5 days, respectively. Herbicide had no effect on primary branches, while the number of secondary branches was increased up to 12. Plant height was severely reduced by 18cm. The reduction in seed yield was observed up to 49%, whereas 100-seed weight was increased across locations. Location-specific superior lines (Nandyal: ICCIL 04016, ICCIL 04004, ICCV 10114; Patancheru: ICCIL 04007; Bijapur: ICCV 04516, ICCV 10, ICCV 97105, ICCIL 01026, ICCV 09106; Sehore: ICCV 08102) were identified. These lines can be used as potential sources for developing herbicide tolerant varieties in chickpea. Weed management through herbicides is economical and facilitates minimum tillage methods, which help preserve topsoil
