The spectrum of parasitic infections with emphasis on the clinico-epidemiological characteristics and risk factors among immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients at a university hospital in Northern India.

Introduction: Intestinal parasitic infections pose a substantial threat to public health and are a huge burden to the economic development of a developing country. We aimed to identify the spectrum of intestinal parasitic infections with an emphasis on demographic and clinical characteristics observed among immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients.

Materials And Methods: This observational study was performed in the Parasitology section of the Department of Microbiology from January 2022 to July 2022.

Chronic Arsenicosis: Cases from a Nonendemic Area of South Rajasthan.

Two adult patients from a village of district Bhilwara, Rajasthan, consulted Skin Department of R. N. T.

Formulation design and evaluation of a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system of lovastatin.

Self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) of lovastatin was aimed at overcoming the problems of poor solubility and bioavailability. The formulation strategy included selection of oil phase based on saturated solubility studies and surfactant and co-surfactant screening on the basis of their emulsification ability. Ternary phase diagrams were constructed to identify the self-emulsifying region.
