Comparative study of syndromic and etiological diagnosis of reproductive tract infections/sexually transmitted infections in women in Delhi

SummaryBackgroundThe adequacy of the World Health Organization's syndromic approach for the diagnosis and management of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), especially at primary health centers (PHCs) and at other levels, is still debatable in different settings in India and requires validation.ObjectivesA cross-sectional study was carried out in women attending the peripheral government clinics of Delhi in order to (1) enumerate their self-reported reproductive tract infection (RTI)/sexually transmitted infection (STI) symptoms; (2) assess their clinical status; (3) determine the syndromic diagnosis of RTI/STI in symptomatic women and etiological diagnosis in both symptomatic and asymptomatic women; and (4) compare the level of agreement between self-reporting of morbidity and syndromic and etiological diagnosis.Materials and methodsThe study was conducted over 26 months in 4090 women attending peripheral government healthcare centers, both rural and urban, in four zones of Delhi. They were recruited into four different study groups: group I, non-pregnant, reporting with symptoms of RTI/STI; group II, with a bad obstetric history or infertility; group III, pregnant women in any trimester attending the antenatal clinic; and group IV, the control group. Gynecological examination, followed by the collection of genital specimens and blood, were performed after informed and written consent was obtained. Every symptomatic patient was managed on the basis of algorithms of the syndromic approach as recommended by the National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO), India. All specimens were transported to the STD Reference Laboratory, Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi and processed by standard methods to diagnose the various STDs. Laboratory reports were sent to the clinicians and appropriate treatment was instituted. Data were analyzed by applying statistical methods.ResultsOverall, self-reporting of morbidity was 65.0%. However, the percentage of women with some STD-related syndrome was 71.4%. The rural women were observed to have significantly more STD syndromes than their urban counterparts. The etiological diagnosis could be established in only 32.2% of cases.ConclusionsThis study highlights the wide variation between self-reporting of morbidity and syndromic- and etiology-based diagnosis in women from both rural and urban settings. This has implications for the syndromic approach to STI case management. These observations call for a review of the diagnostic policy for RTIs/STIs by national authorities in order to avoid the overuse of antimicrobials. The study also highlights the need for the introduction and/or strengthening of facilities for simple diagnostic tests for RTIs/STIs, especially at the peripheral healthcare level

Adjunctive rifampicin for Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia (ARREST): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia is a common cause of severe community-acquired and hospital-acquired infection worldwide. We tested the hypothesis that adjunctive rifampicin would reduce bacteriologically confirmed treatment failure or disease recurrence, or death, by enhancing early S aureus killing, sterilising infected foci and blood faster, and reducing risks of dissemination and metastatic infection. METHODS: In this multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, adults (≥18 years) with S aureus bacteraemia who had received ≤96 h of active antibiotic therapy were recruited from 29 UK hospitals. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) via a computer-generated sequential randomisation list to receive 2 weeks of adjunctive rifampicin (600 mg or 900 mg per day according to weight, oral or intravenous) versus identical placebo, together with standard antibiotic therapy. Randomisation was stratified by centre. Patients, investigators, and those caring for the patients were masked to group allocation. The primary outcome was time to bacteriologically confirmed treatment failure or disease recurrence, or death (all-cause), from randomisation to 12 weeks, adjudicated by an independent review committee masked to the treatment. Analysis was intention to treat. This trial was registered, number ISRCTN37666216, and is closed to new participants. FINDINGS: Between Dec 10, 2012, and Oct 25, 2016, 758 eligible participants were randomly assigned: 370 to rifampicin and 388 to placebo. 485 (64%) participants had community-acquired S aureus infections, and 132 (17%) had nosocomial S aureus infections. 47 (6%) had meticillin-resistant infections. 301 (40%) participants had an initial deep infection focus. Standard antibiotics were given for 29 (IQR 18-45) days; 619 (82%) participants received flucloxacillin. By week 12, 62 (17%) of participants who received rifampicin versus 71 (18%) who received placebo experienced treatment failure or disease recurrence, or died (absolute risk difference -1·4%, 95% CI -7·0 to 4·3; hazard ratio 0·96, 0·68-1·35, p=0·81). From randomisation to 12 weeks, no evidence of differences in serious (p=0·17) or grade 3-4 (p=0·36) adverse events were observed; however, 63 (17%) participants in the rifampicin group versus 39 (10%) in the placebo group had antibiotic or trial drug-modifying adverse events (p=0·004), and 24 (6%) versus six (2%) had drug interactions (p=0·0005). INTERPRETATION: Adjunctive rifampicin provided no overall benefit over standard antibiotic therapy in adults with S aureus bacteraemia.

Not AvailableIn the present study calibration models were developed for non destructive estimation of total phenol and crude fiber content in intact rapeseed mustard seed by Fourier transform near infrared spectroscopy (FTNIR). Rapeseed–mustard (Brassica spp.) is an important group of oilseed crops in India. The defatted meal that is left after oil extraction is a high value by-product for animal nutrition and is also a potential source of protein for human nutrition. However the utilization of mustard meal in animal (monogastric livestock such as poultry and pigs) and human nutrition is limited due to high content of antinutritive compounds such as fiber and phenolic. In order to develop genotypes with low or high contents of phenol and fiber fast screening of existing genotypes is required. The traditional methods for estimation of total phenol and crude fiber are destructive and time consuming. A total of 115 rapeseed mustard genotypes were quantitatively analyzed for total phenol and crude fiber content by wet chemical methods, their Fourier transform near infrared spectra was correlated to resulting data by means of partial least square regression and calibration models were developed. The optimal models were achieved with coefficient of determination (R) 2 of 0.96 and 0.91 and root mean square error of cross validation (RMSECV) of 0.08 and 0.41 with residual predictive deviation (RPD) values of 4.98 and 3.37 for total phenol and crude fiber, respectively. Test validation resulted in RMSEP of 0.11 for total phenol and RMSEP of 0.28 was observed for crude fiber content.Not Availabl

Photosensitized reduction of N<SUB>2</SUB> by Ru<SUP>II</SUP>(bipy)<SUB>3</SUB><SUP>2+</SUP> adsorbed on the surface of Pt/TiO<SUB>2</SUB>/RuO<SUB>2</SUB> semiconductor particulate system containing Ru<SUP>III</SUP>-EDTA complex and L-ascorbic acid

Photocatalytic reduction of N2 to NH3 was carried out in a surface-modified semiconductor particulate system containing Pt/TiO2/RuO2 semiconductor powder, K[RuIII(EDTA-H)Cl]-(EDTA-H = anion of ethylenediaminetetracetic acid) complex as a catalyst and L-ascorbic acid as a sacrificial electron donor. The surface of the Pt/TiO2/RuO2 semiconductor was modified by adsorbing photoactive RuII(bipy)32+ complex. Illumination of the system containing N2, surface-modified semiconductor, RuIII-EDTA complex and ascorbic acid at the photoexcitation energy of RuII(bipy)32+ (510 nm) produces appreciable amounts of NH3 with a turnover rate of 1.13 mol NH3 per mol RuIII-EDTA complex per hour. An improvement in the rate of ammonia formation (1.67 mol h−1 per mol RuIII-EDTA complex) was observed when the same system was illuminated at the band gap energy of TiO2 (390 nm). A suitable mechanism involving the formation of an intermediate dinitrogen complex of ruthenium(II), (RuII(EDTA)N2−) was proposed for the photoreduction of N2 to NH3

Photo-oxidation of cyclohexane and adamantane was carried out in a semiconductor particulate system containing Pt/TiO2/RuO2 semiconductor powder, [RuIII(EDTA-H)Cl]&#8722; (1) complex as catalyst, and the substrate (cyclohexane, adamantane) in water-dioxane medium. Illumination of the system at 390 nm (energy equivalent to the band-gap energy of TiO2) produces cyclohexanol and 1-adamantanol at rates of 1.92&#215;10&#8722;6 mol h&#8722;1 and 1.33&#215;10&#8722;6 mol h&#8722;1, respectively. Trace amounts of cyclohexanone, 2-adamantanol, and 2-adamantanone were also detected in the reaction system. In the absence of complex 1 the reaction gives negligible amounts of oxidation products. A mechanism involving oxygen-atom transfer from the photogenerated [Ruv(EDTA)(O)]&#8722; (2) complex to the substrates has been proposed for the photo-oxidation reaction
