A case report on para-Bombay blood group.

Rare blood group detection is important as the incidence of these blood groups is very low. These rare blood groups need a transfusion of blood from the same group of people; sometimes, it is not available in blood banks. It is important to detect them in the field of transfusion medicine so that the right transfusion at the right time and for the right patient is ensured.

Emission analysis and optimization of antioxidant influence on biofuel stability.

Taking the unbalanced properties of biodiesel leading to rapid oxidation as the maxim of this research, with the aid of weightage evaluation and optimization techniques like Criteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation and Evaluation based on Distance from Average Solution (EDAS), Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) respectively, the ranking of each sample with elevated stability parameters has been projected through rancimat test for oxidation, kinematic viscosity and acid value test for storage, and thermo gravimetric analyzer test for thermal stability parameters. To make sure that the obtained parameter consequences are truthful, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy has been used as the correlating tool in this research. Twenty percent of the biodiesel with Tert butyl hydroquinone (T) at 1000 ppm (3) is mixed to diesel and emission characteristics like carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbon, smoke opacity, and nitrous of oxide have been analyzed for diesel, B20 = 20% biodiesel + 80% diesel, and B20T3.

Comparative Evaluation of Cocoa Bean Husk, Ginger and Chlorhexidine Mouth Washes in the Reduction of Steptococcus Mutans and Lactobacillus Count in Saliva: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Introduction Dental caries is a ubiquitous bacterial infection that has afflicted people for years. () are markers of dental caries and the population of in the saliva is directly related to the number of surfaces colonized by them. Any intervention that can inhibit their growth and survival will negatively impact the initiation and progress of caries.

Familial ainhum: a case report of multiple toe involvement in a father and son, staging of ainhum with insight into different types of constricting bands.

Ainhum, also known as dactylolysis spontanea, is a painful constriction of the base of the fifth toe, frequently followed by spontaneous amputation a few years later. The disease is often symmetrical on both the feet, but, occasionally, other toes are also affected and rarely the distal phalanx of the fifth finger. Pseudoainhum is a similar condition that occurs as a secondary event resulting from certain hereditary and nonhereditary diseases that lead to annular constriction of digits.

Molecular analysis of CAG repeats at five different spinocerebellar ataxia loci: correlation and alternative explanations for disease pathogenesis.

Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are caused by expansion of (CAG)n triplet repeats. These repeats occur as polymorphic forms in general population; however, beyond a threshold size they become pathogenic. The sizes and distributions of repeats at the SCA1, SCA2, SCA3, SCA7 and DRPLA loci were assessed by molecular analysis of 124 unrelated ataxia patients and 44 controls, and the association of larger normal (LN) alleles with disease prevalence was evaluated.

Pharmacognostical and preliminary phytochemical studies of Passiflora foetida.

The plant Passiflora foetida (grandilla) has been used mainly for asthma and various neurological disorders by the traditional medicinal practitioners of Chittor District. Since proper information regarding this plant is not available, our efforts were devoted to fix the pharmacognostical parameters and preliminary phytochemical studies of Passiflora foetid. An attempt was made to fix the macroscopical, microscopical parameters of the leaf, quantitative microscopy, physical constants, behaviour of the powder with chemical reagents and preliminary qualitative phytochemical studies of Passiflora foetida were investigated.

Pharmacognostical and preliminary phytochemical studies of achyranthes aspera linn.

The whole plant of Achyranthes aspera has been used as remedy for a number of diseases such as dropsy, strangury, cough, kidney stones, dysentery and bowel complaints, According to traditional practice, a kheer prepared from the seeds of this plant is used to treat brain disorders. An attempt was made to fix the macroscopical, microscopical parameters of the leaf quantitative microscopy, physical constants, and behaviour of the powder with chemical reagents and preliminary qualitative phytochemical studies of Achyranthes aspera were investigated. The phytochemical tests revealed the presence of sterols, flavanoids tannins and carbohydrates.

Congestive heart failure in two patients of lepromatous leprosy.

Two cases of lepromatous leprosy are presented with heart disease, one with cardiomegaly and the other with ischaemic heart disease. It is very difficult to say whether heart disease was due to any other cause associated with leprosy or due to leprous affection of myocardium. As there are no references in the literature regarding these, two cases are presented as problem cases.
