Evaluating Iranian and Indian victims’ beliefs about wife beating

The present study wants to explore the evaluation of wife beating phenomenon among Iranian and Indian victims of domestic violence. For this purpose, 400 samples including 200 Indian women and 200 Iranian women were randomly selected from Iran and India. First, the Inventory of Beliefs about Wife Beating including 4 components- wife beating is justified, wives gain from beatings, help should be given, offender should be punished and offender is responsible, was answered by the participants. Then, the collected data were subjected to Multi-vitiate Analysis of variance. Iranian sample had high scores on justification of beating wife, gain for wives and responsibility and punishment for husband. Indian sample had high scores on rendering help for the victims of domestic violence. Unemployed victims had high scores on gain and rendering help

A comparative study of Iranians and Indians about the types of domestic violence

The present study focuses on the different kinds of violence Iranian and Indian have observed during their life. For this purpose, four hundred Iranian and Indian women were chosen based on random sampling in Iran and India. After selecting sample, domestic violence questionnaire was given to discover the kind of violence the selected participants have experienced during the lifetime. After the data were collected, Pearson correlation coefficient was used for data analysis. Results showed that most of the violence was related to sexual violence, as well as physical abuse. Regarding the difference between Iranians and Indians physical abuse and emotional abuse were common more among Iranian victims and verbal and financial violence was reported to be more common among Indian victims

Analysis of Association between Caesarean Delivery and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus Using Machine Learning

The study aims to analyze the association between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and other risk factors of cesarean delivery using machine learning (ML). The dataset used for the analysis is from the pregnancy risk assessment survey (PRAMS), considered in two scenarios, i.e., all the data is taken, and all the data of the women who developed GDM. Further, the data is developed in two groups Data-I and Data-II by considering multiparous and primiparous women details, respectively. The correlation analysis and major classification algorithms are applied to the data. It is founded that the top risk factors for the first time cesarean delivery are the age, height, weight, race of the women, presence of hypertension and gestational diabetes mellitus. The major risk factor for repeated cesarean delivery is the previous cesarean delivery. The presence of GDM is also one of the risk factors for cesarean delivery

A study of drug utilization trends in acute coronary syndrome in intensive cardiac care unit at a tertiary care hospital, Mysore

Background: Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is an emergency condition where usage of many drugs during its management in ICCU is common. This could be a potential cause for Polypharmacy, Potential Drug-Drug Interactions and increased Cost Burden on patients. The objective of the study was WHO criteria for prescription like, 1) Average number of drugs per prescription, 2) Percentage of drugs prescribed by Generic name, 3) Percentage of drugs with Injections prescribed, 4) Percentage of prescriptions with Antibiotics and 5) Percentage of drugs prescribed from the WHO Essential Drugs List.Methods: After obtaining approval from Institutional Ethics Committee, an observational study was carried out among 125 patients in a tertiary care hospital, Mysore. Patients diagnosed with ACS admitted in Intensive Cardiac Care Unit (ICCU) for initial 48 hrs were included in the study. The prescriptions were analyzed for WHO criteria for prescription. The results were analyzed using Descriptive Statistics and T- test.Results: In our present study the most common diagnoses were found to be ACS- Anterior wall myocardial infarction (36.8%) and ACS-Inferior wall myocardial infarction (32.8%). Hypertension (35.2%) and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (29.6%) were the frequently associated co-morbid conditions. Antiplatelet drugs (100%) and Hypolipidemic drugs (100%) were the most commonly prescribed, followed by Anti coagulants (94.4%). The average number of drugs per prescription was 9.09±2.17. Percentage of drugs prescribed by generic names was 37.29%. The percentage of drugs prescribed from essential drug list was 50.84%.Conclusions: The present study provides valuable insight about the overall pattern of drugs used in Acute Coronary syndrome. Physician should be encouraged to prescribe drugs with generic name

Prospective study of the functional outcome of uncemented bipolar hemiarhroplasty in displaced fracture neck of femur in elderly

Background: Hip fractures in older patients are associated with impaired mobility, excess morbidity, mortality and loss of independence. To avoid the drawbacks of internal fixation and for early mobilization, hemiarthroplasty is performed in elderly. The bipolar prosthesis was developed to overcome the shortcomings of the unipolar fixed-head prosthesis. An additional site of motion would be expected to decrease the amount of loosening, dislocation, and head migration. The aim of the study is to assess the functional outcome of the patients with fracture neck of femur treated with bipolar hemiarthroplasty.Methods: In this study, 20 patients above the age of 60 years with acute displaced fracture neck of femur underwent hemireplacement arthroplasty with bipolar prosthesis in Department of Orthopaedics, KIMS, Bangalore. The patients were followed up on 6th, 12th, 18th, 24th week post operatively. Functional outcome was assessed with Harris hip score.Results: In our study, mean average age was 72.3 years with predominantly female patients with 75% of the patients with left sided fracture. 95% of the patients had slight or no pain, 85% of patients had slight or no limp. 50% of the patients could walk without support, 65% of the patients could walk a distance of 6 blocks or more. Average Harris hip score was 82%.Conclusions: These results suggest functional outcome following bipolar hemiarthroplasty is good. Early mobilisation, pain free hip and with good level of activity is obtained following bipolar hemiarthroplasty

Opipramol dihydro­chloride

The title compound (systematic name: 4-{3-[2-aza­tricyclo­[9.4.0.03,8]penta­deca-1(15),3,5,7,11,13-hexaen-2-yl]prop­yl}-1-(2-hy­droxy­eth­yl)piperazine-1,4-diium dichloride), C23H31N3O+·2Cl−, is the dihydro­chloride of a piperazine derivative bearing a bulky 3-(5H-dibenz[b,f]azepin-5-yl)propyl substituent. Protonation took place on both N atoms of the piperazine unit. The diaza­cyclo­hexane ring adopts a chair conformation. N—H⋯Cl, O—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding as well as C—H⋯O contacts connect the components into a three-dimensional network in the crystal. Two C—H⋯π contacts are also observed
