Article Synopsis
- * Conducted over a year in a tertiary care hospital in Northeast India, 50 CKD patients' blood samples were analyzed for various parameters, including thyroid hormones and kidney function indicators.
- * Results showed a positive correlation between uric acid and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), while negative correlations were found with other thyroid hormones, suggesting early testing of both could be beneficial for CKD patients.
Background: Cholecystectomy is one of the most common general surgical operations performed worldwide. Limited data is available about the histopathological diagnoses of various gallbladder diseases in North Eastern part of India even though a higher incidence of gallbladder cancer has been reported from this part of the Country.

These diagnostic techniques are very helpful in the detection of PCs; however, all the techniques have their serious limitations. Biosensors are easier to fabricate and do not require any cutting-edge technology as required for other imaging techniques.

- The study focuses on measuring serum ostase (bone-specific alkaline phosphatase) to assess bone health in hyperthyroid and hypothyroid patients, highlighting its advantages due to its long half-life and minimal diurnal variation.
- The research involved 74 patients with thyroid disorders, using chemiluminescent techniques to evaluate serum ostase levels alongside thyroid hormones (TSH, FT3, FT4).
- Results indicate that elevated serum ostase levels correlate with hyperthyroidism and decreased bone mineral density, suggesting that routine measurement can aid in monitoring bone health and guiding treatment for patients with thyroid-related conditions.*
Tubercular esophagocutaneous fistula is a rare entity with only about four cases reported so far. We report here a case in a young female who has a very long tract but responded well to antitubercular treatment.
