Randomised Controlled Trial of Nutritional Supplement on Bone Turnover Markers in Indian Premenopausal Women.

Young Indian women may be at risk of poor bone health due to malnutrition. The aim of this study was to examine the effects on bone metabolism of a nutritional supplement in women aged 25 to 44. The nutritional supplement was a protein-rich beverage powder fortified with multi-micronutrients including calcium (600 mg), vitamin D (400 IU), and vitamin K (55 mcg) per daily serving, while a placebo supplement was low-protein non-fortified isocaloric beverage powder.

Comparison of demographic, clinical, radiological characteristics and comorbidities in mechanically ventilated and nonventilated, adult patients admitted in ICU with confirmed diagnosis of influenza A (H1N1).

Introduction: Influenza A(H1N1) infection affected Indian population in 2009. Patients needed ICU admission and monitoring. Simple demographic, clinical and radiological variables are described in this article in mechanically ventilated and nonventilated patients.

Clinicoradiologic correlation in adult patients diagnosed with novel influenza A (H1N1).

Background: Influenza A(H1N1) infection affected Indian population in 2009. Patients needed ICU admission and monitoring.

Objectives: To describe and correlate clinical and radiographic features of Influenza A(H1N1) infection in patients hospitalised in Intensive care unit.

Retrospective analysis of necropsy findings in patients of H1N1 and their correlation to clinical features.

India reported its first case of H1N1 in July 2009 in Pune and since then, the number of reported cases and deaths exploded in India. Since very little data is available about histopathological findings in patients of H1N1 fatal cases in India, a retrospective chart analysis of necropsy findings of 15 cases of 2009 H1N1 fatal cases was performed. Common clinical features were fever, cough, and breathlessness followed by sore throat and rhinorrhea.
