Abstract:
NetajiSubhas Chandra Bose –the fiery Indian revolutionary has been in the news during 2015 and 2016 in connection with the declassification of files about his mysterious disappearance after 18th of August 1945. Of late, maximum research and writings on the leader have been about the mystery and associated theories connected with his disappearance, with the Indian Prime Minister himself taking a keen interest. It is largely History and to some extent Political Science, which as academic disciplines, has incorporated Subhas Chandra Bose as “Topic of Study/Research”. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose had an in-depth knowledge of not only the Indian Society but also Japanese and European Society. He was a very keen observer of Indian Society and with his keen observation and constant interaction with a wide section of the general public during his constant travels, both within India and abroad, he was aware of various social problems particular to India and its magnitude. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was also fully aware of the British Colonial interests (the cunning-oppressive Agenda) who did not want the total eradication of social problems,especially that of caste and communal rivalry. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose had practical experience in Indian Industrial Relations as an Outside Trade Union Leader of various major trade unions and President of the first Indian Trade Union Federation-The All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC). As the President of India’s most powerful political party, the Indian National Congress (INC), for two consecutive terms, Netaji’s contacts with Indian leaders belonging to different groups/associations including trade unionists, and general public those days was next only to Mahatma Gandhi. All these broadened his horizon and called for constant observation and study of Indian Society on a day to day basis. Netaji also donned the role of conciliator and arbitrator during industrial disputes. Thus his ideas and writings on these areas were a result of practical experience. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose also tried his level best to ameliorate the social status of Indians and was particularly concerned about the plight of Indian labour and farmers. This Article focuses on the role of NetajiSubhas Chandra Bose in Social Reforms and Industrial Relations and aims at highlighting the fact that Bose can be an interesting ‘Topic of Research’ even in Sociology, especially Sociology of Indian Social Reforms, Sociology of Indian Industrial Relations and Military Sociology.

Abstract:
The soft skill training courses discuss a lot of leadership qualities. Many other present and historical figures are studied as part of leadership study. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose as the name suggests exhibits a great number of qualities that made him a great leader. The present research paper focuses on the critical analysis of his qualities with the help of existing accounts of his works and contributions that made him a mighty and successful leader. Although several researchers speak about Netaji’s contribution to Nationalism and Independence, however considering his efforts from the Leadership Personality point of view, have rarely been studied before in detail as a soft skill project. Of course, his personality as a great leader is known to all maybe that’s the reason he is entitled to ‘Netaji’, but enumerating and elaborating his qualities with the modern perspective considering the latest traits of leadership in soft skills and critically evaluating the characteristics of his personality may broaden the sense of understanding of his leadership. This study may add some crucial points in the soft skill & personality development study to practice and help society create potential good leaders. Leaders can be made but creating the best leader is a need of time. Having the ideal model for great leaders to follow, and celebrating his qualities will influence the present distracted society to get back on track and work in the right direction in making the present generation a good leader/s.

Abstract Introduction For the prevention and better management of traumatic brain and spine injury patients, it is mandatory to understand the demographic and clinical profiles of cases of a particular region. This study was aimed at describing the epidemiology, pattern, and outcomes of head and spine injury patients at a tertiary care center in central India. Materials and Methods All the patients with head and spine injury admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery between September 1, 2018, and August 31, 2019 were included in the study. Data of all these patients were collected from the medical record section and analyzed for age, sex, mode of injury, severity of injury, management, and outcomes. Results During the study period, 932 patients with head injury and 241 patients with spine injury were admitted to our department. Around 65% of the patients in both head and spine injury categories fell in the age group of 26 to 55 years. Approximately 80% of all neurotrauma patients were male. The most common mode of injury was road traffic accident followed by fall from height. Mortality for severe head injury was 39% and that for ASIA A (American Spinal Injury Association grade A) cervical spine injury was 65%. Conclusion Even after aggressive treatment strategies, morbidity and mortality are very high, and the ultimate outcome depends mainly on the clinical status immediately after trauma. The data from this study can be helpful in strategy-making for the prevention and management of head and spine injury patients, especially in the central Indian population.

Abstract:
Background: To assess the growth and neurodevelopmental outcome of all newborn discharged from the NICU of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College, Jabalpur on follow up for 6 months.Methods: Prospective observational cohort study of 200 high risk newborn discharged from NICU. Babies were called for follow up at 1 month, 2 months, 4 month and 6 months of corrected age and detailed information was taken regarding NICU stay and morbidity with the help of data available from discharge card. Anthropometric parameters like weight, length, and head circumference were noted. Suitable screening tests like denver’s developmental screening test for Indian infants (DDSTII) for NDD (neurodevelopmental delay) and Amiel Tison scoring for tone assessment was done.Results: Among the 200 NICU graduates chosen, 40 lost during follow up. The neurodevelopmental delay in this study was 31.3%. Authors also analysed NDD according to gestational age wise groups. NDD in pre-terms was 39.6%. The developmental delay was more in babies with neonatal sepsis, perinatal asphyxia, prematurity, RDS, NEC etc.Conclusions: The morbidities like severe perinatal asphyxia, hypoglycaemia, seizures, shock, hypoxia, hypothermia, low gestational age have direct association with NDD.

Abstract:
Background: Urinary incontinence (UI) is one of the most common diseases in the world, occurring majorly in females. The most common reason of its occurrence in women is: stress urinary incontinence. The frequent and repeated small leaks lead to soreness and excoriation of the vulva, and necessitate frequent changes of underclothing or the constant wearing of the protective clothing. In severe cases the woman’s life becomes a misery; she feels a social outcast and avoids leaving the house.Methods: This study was conducted at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose medical college and hospital from October 2016 to October 2017. A total of 418 women above 18 years of age who have none of the exclusion criteria (active UTI, pregnancy and 6 weeks postpartum, malignancy, any neurological illness, all patients with true illness) were included. Data was collected using a predesigned proforma meeting the objectives of the study with their consent.Results: We have studied 418 cases out of which 77 (18.4%) cases were found to have stress urinary incontinence.Conclusions: Stress urinary incontinence amongst women is an undiagnosed problem leading to significant suffering. This study signifies how neglected women’s health, post menopause particularly genitourinary health is. It also highlights the simple clinical diagnostic parameters needed to establish the presence of incontinence.

Abstract:
7057 Background: Almost 60% of the patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) are over the age of 60 years. Age is one of the strongest adverse prognostic factor for AML, both for induction remission and for survival. Studies have shown that elderly patients have reduced tolerance to aggressive chemotherapy especially the myelosupressive effects. Elderly patients with Leukemia who receive intensive treatment often die as a result of chemotherapy. Aggressive chemotherapy is also costly which the relatives in developing country are reluctant to spend for the elderly patients. The aim of our study was to see the outcome, tolerability and cost effectiveness of oral chemotherapeutic agents. Methods: We selected consecutive 100 patients more than 50 years of age in haemato oncology department of NCRI (Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute) during the period from Jan 2004 to Dec 2006. The mean age of the patients was 65 (range 50 –71) years. There was male preponderance. The inclusion criteria were performance status more than 60% (Kornofsky), Morphological, Cyto-Chemical and Immunophenotyping diagnosis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), normal liver (billirubine < 2) and kidney function ( Creatinine <2%). After the incent consent all patient were started oral chemotherapeutic agents 6 Mercptopurine (6MP) 75mg/m2. Etoposide 70mg/m2 and Prednisolone 40mg/m2. All agents are given 3 weeks followed by 7 days gap every month and continued for 6 months. Bone Marrow was repeated after 3rd & 6th course of chemotherapy. Results: Fifteen (15%) and thirtyeight patients (38%) had complete hematological response after 3rd & 6th course of chemotherapy. Seven patients (7%) died because of grade III/IV Neutropenia. Median duration of Myelosupression was 18 days (2 to 48 days).12% required hospitalisation. With median follow up of 19 months (range 2–36 months) the disease free survival (DFS) and over all survival (OS) was 18 % and 32 % respectively. Conclusions: The combination of oral chemotherapeutic agents consisting of 6MP, Etoposide & Prednisolone were well tolerated by elderly patients with good induction remission, low mortality and median survival. It was cheaper and well accepted by the patients. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract:
Sambalpur is the hub of western Odisha. It is famous all over India and abroad as well because of its music and dance, handloom, Hirakud Dam and rich culture. However, in comparison to elementary education, the development of higher education in this Sambalpur district is too late. The first higher educational institution of Sambalpur is Gangadhar Meher College, 1944 and the latest university is the Odisha State Open University, 2015. The main cause of delayed development of higher education in Sambalpur is the lack of interest of the British government. Nevertheless, after India got her independence, higher education was widely promoted through the endeavour of both Government and Private enterprise. Some of the colleges and universities worthy to be mentioned are Indian Institute of Management Sambalpur, Odisha State Open University,Sambalpur University,Veer Surendra Sai University of Technology, Sambalpur University Institute of Information Technology,Gangadhar Meher University, Veer Surendra Sai Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Netaji Subash Chandra Bose College, Government Womens’ College, Lajpat Rai Law College, Hirakud College, Orissa Medical College of Homeopathy and Research, Burla College, Govt College of Physical Education, Sambalpur, Nursing College, Dr Parshuram Mishra Institute of Advanced Studies in Education and Silicon Institute of Technology.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Aim The aim of this study was to evaluate all the cases of sinonasal masses based on histopathology into neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions and to study their clinical and radiological presentations. Materials and methods The present study was carried out in 42 patients coming to the outpatient and inpatient Department of ENT of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College & Hospital with the complaint of nasal obstruction during the period of March 2015 to August 2016. Patients were subjected to thorough clinical examinations and radiological investigations, which included digital X-ray paranasal sinus (PNS) and contrast-enhanced computed tomography PNS, and diagnosis was confirmed by nasal biopsy for histopathology reports. Results and observations A total of 42 patients were studied, of which 71.43% were non-neoplastic and 28.57% were neoplastic. Nasal polyps were the commonest non-neoplastic lesions (61.91%). Most common benign neoplastic lesion was angiofibroma (11.9%), while the commonest malignant neoplastic mass was found to be squamous cell carcinoma (7.14%). There was one case of adenoid cystic carcinoma. Conclusion Patients with sinonasal masses may present with trivial complaints, but proper evaluation of all the cases will enable us to make specific diagnosis and treat them accordingly.

Background: Congenital idiopathic clubfoot is the most common birth defect of the musculoskeletal system affecting 1 in every 1000 live births each year. Aim of our study was to determine the demographic variables, risk factors associated with CTEV in central India.Methods: A retrospective study was conducted from January 2019 to August 2020 using data of 200 patients with CTEV registered at department of orthopaedics, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose medical college, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India were included in our study.Results; Out of total of 200 patients, 167 patients belong to age group <1 year (83.5%) with range from 10 days -7 years. Males were twice (65%) likely affected and (53.5%) clubfoot cases had both feet affected. Right side was more affected in unilateral cases. 189 patients (94.5%) were idiopathic, whereas 11 patients (5.5%) were non-idiopathic. there were 58 (29%) children out of 200, born of consanguineous marriage of parents. Risk factors like anemia, jaundice, asphyxia, obstructed labor, history of miscarriage had positive correlation with clubfoot. CTEV patients of low birth weight <2.5 kg associated with maternal risk factors like smoking, alcohol, anemia.Conclusions: Demographic study is useful tool for determining birth prevalence and risk factors associated with CTEV. There are significantly higher proportion of consanguinity in clubfoot patients. Cultural differences may lead to differences in our findings with respect to the previous studies. These preliminary findings will help in the future for similar studies in central India as well as in the general Indian population.

Background: Postpartum depression also known as postnatal depression is a non-psychotic depressive disorder of variable severity and it can begin as early as after delivery and can persist indefinitely if untreated. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of postpartum depression by Edinburgh postnatal depression scale and to evaluate the factors predisposing to postpartum depression.Methods: The present prospective observation study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College, Jabalpur from 1st March 2015 to 31st August 2016. Participants were screened for postnatal depression using EPDS. A risk factor questionnaire that covered key socio-demographic and obstetrics factors were also completed by all the subjects. Main outcome measure: prevalence of a score of 13 or higher, on the EPDS. The data of the present study was recorded into computer and after proper validation, error checking, coding and decoding, the data was compiled and analysed using the SPSS Window, Appropriate univariate and bivariate analysis were carried out using the fisher exact test or Chi-square test for categorical variables.Results: The present study concludes that the prevalence of postpartum depression is 12.8% (64/500) amongst postnatal women admitted of Obstetrics unit of NSCB Medical College, Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh) since the prevalence of an EPDS score ≥13 (which is suggestive of PPD) was found in a significant proportion of women, screening for PPD is indicated in all postpartum subjects to identify and promptly treat these women. Identification of a clear association between certain risk factors and PPD will lead to a prompter diagnosis of PPD.

Objective:-Hepatitis B is noteworthy medical issues that may include the late continuation of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The present study aimed to know the seroprevalence of hepatitis B Virus in Meerut with different clinical conditions. Methods: The studyconducted on 4927 patients in Meerut, India, which was performed in central research center labortory of Microbiology at netaji subhash Chandra Bose Medical College and Hospital Between January 2013 to April 2017 The sera were separated and screened for HBsAg byimmune-chromatographic card test then HBsAg positive serum sampleswere tested again for HBsAg using ELISA kit. Positive samples for HBsAgwere tested for HBeAg ELISA kit. Results: In 245 positive cases 118 (48.16 %) were male and 127 (51.84%) were female. The seroprevalence rate of HBV was 4.97% in Meerut, India. Age group21–30 was the highest seroprevalence (7.46%) when compaired to other age group. Of the 245 HBsAg Positive case 55 (1.12%) were HBeAg positive. 20 were male, Highest HBeAg positive male were found in 21- 30age group. Out of 55 HBeAg cases, 35 were female and 92 female were negative for HBeAg, this was stastically significant (P< 0.039) by using Z test. Conclusions: The study uncovered that the seroprevalence of HBV was alarmingly higher in such a populace, which presumably mirrors a high foundation predominance of HBV contaminations ought to be mulled over and Implementation of group based preventive measures and enhanced procedures for safe blood supply may demonstrate valuable to diminish the seroprevalence Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.18(2) 2019 p.329-333

Abstract:
Background: About 43% of the under-five child mortality is contributed by neonatal death. According to National Neonatal Perinatal Database (NNPD) in inborn births, Klebsiella pneumonia was the most commonly associated pathogen, followed by Staphylococcus aureus. Hence to know the prevalence and profile of bacterial infection in the inborn unit of an SNCU in Central India,this study was done.Methods: This is a cross sectional study done in the Inborn Unit of SNCU, Department of Paediatrics, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College and Hospital, Jabalpur (M.P.), INDIA done between 1st March 2015 to 31st August 2016 where the blood sample and data collection of the suspected patients was done. Samples were then sent for culture and sensitivity testing. All the details then entered in Microsoft Excel Sheet and data was analysed using SPSS v 20.Results: The prevalence of bacteriologically positive sepsis was found to be 5.06% (in 43patients out of 850 examined cases). It was more prevalent among males that is in 24 among total 43 culture positives (55.8%), low birth weight were 37 (86% of culture positive patients)and preterm were 35(81.4% of culture positive patients). The most common pathogen associated was found to be Klebsiella pneumonia which was detected in 16 patients (37.2% of all bacteriologically positive patients) followed by E. coli and Pseudomonas, each in 7 patients (16.28%).Conclusions: Though we are on the track of minimising morbidities still we have a high prevalence of neonatal sepsis in inborn unit so sepsis related morbidities can be prevented if timely interventions are done.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: Acute lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in elderly patients (50yrs or older) carries a poor prognosis. In survival studies using in variety of therapeutic regimens. This may be because of relatively high frequency of the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph). With the advent of dose intensive chemotherapy regimen such as hyper CVAD (Fractionated Cyclophosphamide, Vincristin, Doxorubicin, Dexamethasone) overall survival has not improved. The aim of our study was to see the effectiveness of Imatinib plus Vincristin & Prednisolone in Philadelphia Chromosome positive in elderly acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients. Material & Methods: During period from January 2006 December 2006 we selected 10 consecutive elderly (more than 50yrs) Ph+ ALL patients in the haemato-oncology department Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute. There were 4 males & 6 females. The median age of the patient was 64years (range 51 to 77yrs). All patients were started with Imatinib mesylate (Natco pharma) 400mg daily. Prednisolone was given 40mg /m2 over 6weeks & followed by 2weeks tapering dose. Vincristin was given 2mg/m2 weekly for 6weeks. All patients were evaluated by bone marrow and molecular testing done every 3monthly for 1year then 6monthly. Result: All patients (100%) obtained complete haematological & partial molecular response at 3month. Three patient (30%) achieved complete molecular response at 9month. With median follow-up of 8months (range 6–15months) the disease free survival and overall survival were 80% & 90% respectively. Most of the induction treatment was done as OPD basis, no hospitalization required. The therapy was tolerated well. Conclusion: We concluded that Imatinib plus Vincristin & Prednisolone is a feasible, highly active protocol for elderly Philadelphia Chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients. It is well tolerated & associated with good quality of life.

Abstract:
e16569 Background: Ovarian cancer patients with renal compromise poses problem in choosing chemotherapy for them. Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) can be used in such cases. However there is not much data regarding the efficacy and toxicity of PLD. We used PLD in a few renal compromised ovarian and peritoneal cancer patients. Methods: The clinical records of patients with recurrent ovarian and peritoneal cancer patients with high creatinine or low creatinine clearance level who were given PLD at the Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Cancer Research institute) (NCRI) from July 2005 to July 2008 was reviewed retrospectively to study efficacy and toxicity. Results: Twenty-one patients were identified, which included 16 with epithelial ovarian cancer, 5 with peritoneal cancer. Renal compromise was diagnosed and graded according to creatinine clearance test (CCT) as severe when less than 28 mL/min/1.5 m2, moderate when CCT is 28–55 mL/min/1.5 m2, and mild when CCT is 55–84 mL/min/1.5 m2. Normal value was taken as 85 mL/min/1.5 m2. Patients had distribution as mild: 4 patients, moderate:7 patients, and severe:10 patients. The initial doses of PLD were classified into regular initial dose (40 mg/m2/4 weeks) and lower initial dose (20–30 mg/m2/4 weeks). The median cycle was 5 (range 1–12). We used lower dose for moderate and severe renal disease. The incidence of palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia 5/21 (23.8%), stomatitis 6/21(28.5%), and hematologic toxicity 3/21(14.2 %). Dose reduction due to toxicities occurred in 19.04 % (4/21) patients. Amongst 21 cases no patient had deterioration of renal function while and after the treatment with PLD. However we had primary treatment with PLD in four cases (2 moderate and 2 severe) while others had platinum based initial treatment. We did not have any complete responder though we had 6 (28.5%) partial responders, 8 (38.1%) stable diseases and 7(33.3%) progressive diseases. Conclusions: Patients with renal compromise who received PLD therapy at an initial dose lower than 40 mg/m2/4 weeks tolerated their treatment well. They required subsequent dose reduction due to mucocutaneous and cardiological toxicities in 19% cases. Treatment response in this population with ovarian and peritoneal cancer was similar to that of patients with normal renal function. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract:
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a disease state of chronic hyperglycemia that occurs due to decrease insulin secretion or attenuated insulin response or both. Insulin resistance with relative insulin deficiency is a peculiar feature of T2DM. Proinsulin is synthesized by the beta cell of the pancreas. Before secretion into the portal vein, proinsulin cleaves into equal quantities of insulin and C-peptide. The secreted insulin gets extensively metabolized by the liver and has a shorter half-life than C-peptide. Thus, C-peptide levels more accurately perceive the endogenous insulin secretion of the pancreas. Hence, C-peptide can be used to interpret the significant pathophysiology behind T2DM. Aims and Objectives: The aim of the study was to perceive endogenous insulin secretion or beta cell functioning of the pancreas by measuring C-peptide levels in T2DM patients. Materials and Methods: The cross-sectional study were conducted on 120 random T2DM patients attending the outpatient clinic of tertiary care hospital (Netaji Subash Chandra Bose Medical College, Jabalpur) from January 2021 to August 2022. All T2DM patients were evaluated with fasting C-peptide levels. Results: Among 120 cases,25 (20.8%) have low C-peptide levels of <1.1 ng/dL, indicating poor insulin reserve.33 (27.5%) have normal C-peptide levels, and approximately half −62 (51.6%) have high C-peptide levels of more than 3.3 ng/dL, indicating adequate endogenous insulin secretion and insulin resistance is the significant pathophysiology behind T2DM. Conclusion: C-peptide level is a useful investigation to perceive endogenous insulin secretion and beta cell function of the pancreas. Insulin resistance rather than insulin deficiency is the significant pathophysiology behind T2DM.

Abstract:
ObjectiveThe purpose was to increase use of alcoholic hand rub (AHR) in specialised newborn care unit (SNCU) to improve hand hygiene in order to reduce neonatal sepsis and mortality at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College and Hospital, Jabalpur.DesignA prospective interventional and observational study.MethodologyWe formed a quality improvement (QI) team in our SNCU consisting of doctors, nurses, auxiliary staff and parents (a floating member) to improve proper use of AHR. To identify the barriers to the problem, we used fishbone analysis tool. The barriers which were not allowing the health providers to use AHR properly identified were amount of AHR in millilitres to be used per day per baby, how much and when the amount of AHR to be indented from the main store and what is the proper site to place the bottle. We used plan–do–study–act cycles to test and adapt solutions to these problems. Within 5–6 weeks of starting our project, AHR use increased from 44 mL to 92 mL per baby per day and this is sustained around 100 mL per baby per day for over 2 years now.ResultsSignificant decrease in neonatal mortality was observed (reduced from median of 41.0 between August 2016 and April 2018 to 24.0 between May 2018 and December 2019). The neonates discharged alive improved from 41.2 to 52.3 as a median percentage value. The percentage of babies who were referred out and went Left Against Medical Advice (LAMA) deceased too.ConclusionMultiple factors can lead to neonatal deaths, but the important factors are always contextual to facilities. QI methodology provides health workers with the skills to identify the major factors contributing to mortality and develop strategies to deal with them. Improving processes of care can lead to improved hand hygiene and saves lives.

Abstract:
Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of anemia in persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus and its role as a risk factor for the presence and the severity of diabetic retinopathy, in a population based study. Although chronic kidney disease-induced anemia is more prevalent in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), anemia is a common finding prior to manifestation of kidney disease. In presence of some risk factors at the time of diagnosing DM, microvascular complications must be considered. The effect of anemia as a risk factor on progression of DM complications is still unclear. The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of anemia and its association with microvascular complications in patients with type 2 DM. This cross-sectional study was performed in the present study is carrying out from Department of Medicine, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College & Hospital, Jabalpur (M.P.) Results: The prevalence of anemia (Hb<12g/dl in women and <13g/dl in men) was 12.3%. Between 41 and 50 years of age, prevalence of anemia was higher in women than in men (78.6 % vs 56.3.3%). Men with anemia, and not women, had 2 times the risk of developing diabetic retinopathy. Multivariate analysis revealed independent predictors for anemia: age group more than 70 years (66.7% vs 100%) duration of diabetes of more than 5 years or 1.56 (1.09-2.69) and the presence of diabetic retinopathy or 1.82 (95% CI 1.22-2.69). Conclusion: Diabetes mellitus is one of the serious diseases affecting the largest population worldwide. Diabetic retinopathy is a sight threatening preventable complication. Anemia is more common in diabetic population both men and women. Identifying and treating anemia would make a great impact in managing diabetic retinopathy. Anemia is a common complication of DM and is associated with duration of disease and microvascular complications.

Abstract:
Background: The occurrence of breast cancer is increasing worldwide with peak incidence occurring above the age of 50 years in developed countries, whereas in india, it is above the age of 40. Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a quick, easy, and cost-effective diagnostic tool for breast disease, and also helpful to differentiate between various benign and malignant lesions of breast. Aims and Objectives: (1) to assess the usefulness of Modified Masood’s Scoring Index (MMSI) in breast cytology. (2) To study cytohistopathological correlation in breast lesions. After the FNAC of breast lesion, classify the breast lesion based on MMSI and histopathology. Materials and Methods: A hospital-based prospective study was conducted between March 2021 and September 2022 on 183 patients who were referred for FNAC from the surgery department to the cytology section of the Pathology Department at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College Hospital in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh. Results: In our study, the largest group of cases (45.90%) was in the 20–39 age range, with a mean age of 37±14.65. The majority of cases (60.6%) belonged to category II (proliferative breast disease [PBD] without atypia) with a mean MMSI score of 11.35±5.55. The cytological findings showed a correlation of 98.20% with MMSI in category II and 88.68% in category IV, while the histopathological findings showed a correlation of 89.52% with MMSI category II and 98.15% with MMSI category IV. Fibroadenoma (FA) was the most common finding on histopathological examination, accounting for 120 cases (65.6%). Conclusion: The MMSI is an effective tool to complement cytomorphological diagnosis in breast lesions, including PBD with or without atypia and carcinomas. It is particularly valuable in the early management and prognosis of patients, as treatment options can vary based on the MMSI score.

Abstract:
20015 Background: Acute Lymphatic Leukemia in children is a curable disease in the range of 80–90 % in developed Countries by aggressive protocol like BFM, St. Judes’. In developing Countries like ours, patients can’t tolerate those aggressive protocol because of Socio- economic and nutritional factors. The less aggressive Protocol like INCTR (International Network for Cancer Treatment & Research) are suitable in developing Countries like ours. The aim of our study was to see outcome of childhood ALL patient with INCTR protocol and tolerability of the protocol in Indian-asian population. Methods: We treated 480 Children (age range 1–25 years, median age of 11 yrs) with INCTR Protocol at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute, Kolkata, India, a tertiary cancer centre from Eastern India during period from April ’99 to Dec ’06. There was female preponderance in the study. Fever 283 (58.9%), lymphadenopathy 211 (43.9%) and haepatosplenomegaly 153 (31.8%) were the major clinical presentation. Forty-three (8.9%) patients were present with hyper Leukocytosis. C-ALL phenotype were the largest group though the incidence of the T-ALL were quite high (27.9%). Results: Remission induction were seen in 446 (92.9%) of the patient. In a follow-up period of 88 months (with an average of 54 months) the disease-free survival ( DFS) was 66.8% (321 patients) with an overall survival of 73.9% (355 patients). The isolated bone marrow relapse was seen in majority of the cases 40 (8.33%) and the major relapse was in maintenance and first 6 months of completion of therapy. The major cause of morbidity was infection 316 (65.8%) followed metabolic complications 81 (16.8%), hemorrhage 52 (10.8%), neurologic 10 (2.08%), hepatitis 6 (1.25%) and pancreatitis 5 (1.04%). The major cause of the mortality was infection 75%(360 patients) followed progressive disease 7.91% (38 patients) and Hemorrhage 5.83%( 28 patients). Conclusions: The data of acute lymphatic leukemia from a developing country is encouraging. The protocol was well tolerated by India- asian population.

Abstract Background: In developing countries 40 % children suffer from mal-nutrition. It has been shown that a good nutritional status can reduce complications of treatment, strengthen the immune system and contribute to the patient’s general well being throughout treatment. A good nutritional status is therefore essential for optimal treatment of a leukemic child. The aim of our study was to see the nutritional status of leukemic children on diagnosis and effect of nutrition on outcome of therapy. Material & Methods: During period from January 2004 to December 2007 we prospectively analyzed the nutritional status of 400 paediatric patients in Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute, a tertiary cancer center of Eastern India. The age of the patients were 1 to 18 years (median age 12.5 years). The parameter analyzed were weight for age, height for age, total protein, serum albumin and skin fold thickness. The weight for age, height for age and skin fold thickness were taken as normal if they were between 3rd and 97th percentile curve of the growth chart recommended by the Indian Council of Medical Research. The albumin level and the total protein was considered normal if the value is equal to or more than 3gm% and 5.8gm% respectively. Result: It was seen that total 56 patients (14% children) were low weight for age, 40 patients (10% children) were low height and 67 patients (16.75% children) had low mid arm circumference. Total 44 patients (11% children) had low serum albumin while 80 patients (20% children) had low serum protein. It was found that low weight for age, low serum albumin and low mid arm circumference were significance factors in remission induction, disease free survival and toxicity of chemotherapy (p &lt; 0.005). Conclusion: We conclude that mal-nutrition is a major finding in cancer patients with leukemia in developing country like ours. The patient with mal-nutrition had less remission in induction, disease free survival and more toxicities during therapy as compared to well-nourished children.

Abstract:
Background: Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) plays a role in the pre-operative diagnosis of salivary gland mass lesion. Salivary gland neoplasm accounts for 6% of all head and neck tumors. It is widely used safe and relatively non-traumatic procedure that can quickly provide important information. “The Milan system for reporting salivary gland cytopathology” (MSRSGC) was introduced, providing a guide for diagnosis and management according to the risk of malignancy (ROM) in different categories. Aims and Objectives: The objectives of the study are as follows: (1) To evaluate different types of salivary gland lesion in tertiary care center. (2) To see application of Milan system in the present scenario. Materials and Methods: A hospital-based and prospective study was conducted between March 2021 and September 2022 on all cases of salivary gland lesions who were referred for FNAC to the Department of Pathology at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College Hospital in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh. In the present study, we categorize salivary gland cytopathology result as per Milan system (MSRSGC) and calculated diagnostic accuracy and ROM in each category of Milan system (MSRSGC). Results: Seventy seven cases distributed according to Milan category as follows: Non-diagnostic (ND) (2.59), non-neoplastic (NN) (29.33%), atypia of undetermined significance (AUS) (1.29%), 4a. Benign (29.87%), 4b. Salivary gland neoplasm of uncertain malignant potential (SUMP) (1.29%), suspicious of malignancy (SOM) (1.29%), and malignancy (10.38%). Out of 77 cases, histological follow-up was available in 27 cases and the ROM was calculated. The ROM for each category of the Milan system is as follows: ND (0%), NN (6.66%), AUS (100%), 4a. Benign (9.09%), 4b. SUMP (0%), SOM (100%), and Malignancy (100%). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and diagnostic accuracy were 77.7%, 100%, 100%, 92.59%, and 94.11%. Conclusion: FNAC of the salivary gland lesions is a safe, minimum invasive, and reliable diagnostic procedure. The Milan system of reporting is a risk stratification system which can improve the overall effectiveness of reporting.

Abstract:
10046 Background: Acute Lymphatic Leukemia is a curable disease in the range of 80 - 90% in developed countries by aggressive protocol like BFM, St. Judes’ but result is much less in adolescence age group (60–70%). In developing countries like ours, patients can't tolerate that aggressive protocol because of socio-economic and nutritional factors. The less aggressive protocol like MCP841 is suitable in developing countries like ours. The aim of our study was to see outcome of adolescent ALL patient with protocol MCP 841 and tolerability of the protocol in Indian-Asian population. Methods: We treated 75 children with age range 13 - 18 years (median age of 15 yrs) with MCP 841 Protocol at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute, Kolkata, India, a tertiary cancer center from Eastern India during the period of April 1999 to Dec 2007. There was female preponderance in the study. Fever 48 (64.0%), lymphadenopathy 35 (46.7%), and haepatosplenomegaly 28 (37.3%) were the major clinical presentation. Eight (10.7%) patients were present with hyper leukocytosis. T-ALL phenotype was the largest group though the incidence of the C-ALL was quite high 23 (30.7%). Results: Remission induction was seen in 65 (86.7%) of the patients. In a follow-up period of 24 - 88 months (with an average of 54 months) the disease-free survival ( DFS) was 42 (56%) patients with an overall survival of 46 (61.34%) patients. The isolated bone marrow relapse was seen in majority of the cases 28 (37.34%) and the major relapse was in maintenance and first 6 months of completion of therapy. The major cause of morbidity was infection 53 (70.7%) followed metabolic complications 16 (21.34%), pancreatitis 3 (4.0%), hemorrhage 10 (13.3%), neurologic 2 (2.7%), and hepatitis 1 (1.3%). The major cause of the mortality was infection 18% (24.0% patients) followed progressive disease 9 (12.0%) and hemorrhage 2 (2.7%). As compared to our all pediatric ALL group the outcome is much less and complications are much more. Conclusions: The data of acute lymphatic leukemia in adolescent is not satisfactory as compared to other pediatric patients. They also tolerate chemotheraphy badly. Therefore there is need for modified protocol for this age group. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract Background: The Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphomas (NHL) in childhood are usually high grade and diffuse histology. They require intensified short duration chemotherapy in contrast to adult NHL. The aim of our study was to observe the result of aggressive short duration chemotherapy in paediatric NHL. Materials & Methods: We included consecutive 160 paediatric NHL patients in paediatric haemato-oncology department of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute during period from June 1996 to December 2007. The inclusion criteria were patients less than 25 yrs of age with a diagnosis of NHL and Patients are clinically staged according to the St. Jude’s (Murphy’s) classification. Patients with &gt; 25% blasts in the bone marrow were treated as leukemia and excluded from the study. Each patient received 3 cycles A and 3 cycles B of MCP842 protocol of INCTR. Response was assessed at the completion of 2cycles of chemotherapy (1 each of A and B). Result: A total of 160 previously untreated patients were entered in this study. The age range was 1 to 25 yrs (median 13.5). Fourty Eight (48) patients had Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (LL), 64 patients (40%) had Burkitt Lymphoma, 40 (25%) diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLCL) and 8 (5%) had Anaplastic Large Cell. The abdomen was the most common site (56%) of involvement followed by the mediastinum (15.62%). One hundred and Thirty four (134)(83.75%) patients achieved complete response after 2 cycles of therapy, 14 patients (8.75%) achieved partial response and 6 (3.75%) had no response, 6 (3.75%) were not evaluable. With median follow up of 4 & 1/2 yaers (range 7 months – 10 years) a total of 38 (23.75%)patients (19 LL, 13 Burkitt Lymphoma, 5 DLCL and 1 ALCL) have died. The causes of death were progressive disease in 26 (16.25%), infection in 6 (3.75%), tumour lysis in 4 (2.5%), hepatitis in 1 (0.63%), and unknown 1 (0.63%). One hundred and twenty two (122) patients (76.25%) are alive and in complete remission. The patients tolerated chemotherapy well. Grade IV febrile Neutropenia was seen in 34 patients (21.25%). Conclusion: Result of MCP 842 was promising and we will continue the protocol in future.

Abstract:
7012 Background: A pilot study with wheat grass juice in major thalassaemia patients was done by a group of clinicians in IPGMR, Chandigarh, India. We performed a study of 200 patients of intermediate thalassaemia with wheat grass juice and found 80% patients becoming transfusion independent. During the study in majority of the patients, serum ferritin level was significantly less as compared to pretreatment values. The aim of our study was to see the effect of wheat grass juice in reducing Ferritin level in myelodysplastic syndrome and also do the biochemical analysis of the wheat grass juice. Methods: During period from January 2003 to December 2007 we selected 20 patients of transfusion dependent myelodysplastic syndrome in the oncology department of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute. The age range of the patients was 42 years to 72 years (median 55 years). The fresh leaves of 5–7-day-old wheat grasss including stems were made fresh juice and had given 30 mL of juice daily to all 20 patients for continuous 6 months. Wheat grass juice was analyzed by column chromatography and found to be rich in oxalic and malic acid which might have some role in dietary absorption of iron from intestine. Beside that the wheat grass juice was found to contain two unique active ingredients with iron chelating property which was performed by deoxyribose degradation assay. We compared aqueous soluble extract of 5–7-day-old plant and dose-dependent study showed a significant iron chelating activity of crude extract in comparison to known standard iron chelator desferroxamine (DFO). The active compounds of crude extract of wheat grass may chelate catalytic iron in iron overload disorders when taking systematic dose. Result: The mean serum Ferritin level of the patients was 2,250 (range 650–4,800) before wheat grass treatment. The mean reduced to 950 (range 68–1680) (p < 0.0001). The performance status was improved from 60% to 80% (Karnofsky) after wheat grass treatment. The mean interval between transfusions was found increased. Conclusions: Wheat grass juice is an effective iron chelator and its use in reducing serum ferritin should be encouraged in myelodysplastic syndrome and other diseases where repeated blood transfusion is required.

Abstract:
Netaji’s Secret Service ‘Indian National Army’ essentially revolutionary organisation. It is well known the leftist played a crucial role in Subhas Bose getting elected as the President of the Tripuri Congress. In 1939 found the Left Consolidation Committee (LCC), but the tenuous coalition of the leftists in the Committee soon broke but CPI remained with Bose. However, after the Second World War broke out, Bose decided to leave India. The Communists helped Subhas in his escape; the main operator was Achhar Singh Chhina, who was best known by the Soviets as Larkin, Akbar Mia of Forward Bloc and Ajoy Ghosh of CPI. Bose’s after the escape to contact the Soviet leaders for enlisting them as India’s ally, was also helped by the communists. In the War theatre, Subhas Bose Was in favour of Link. Before his departure, All India Revolutionary Committee code-named ‘MARY’ in Delhi communicated with Kabul link station codenamed ‘OlIVER’ and with German link codenamed ‘TOM’. T. Holt Writes ‘channel “SILVER” was one of the great deception double agent channels of the war, real name Bhagat Ram Talwar’. 1 ‘SILVER’ the game Master, one of the closest person of Bose, was a communist, a Master of disguise, Knowledgeable about the various revolutionaries Movements in India. Silver kept the soviet posted on his work as the Link between the Axis legation in Kabul and Bose sympathisers in India. Silver’s intelligence system as a high-grade source. But Silver remained a Communist first and foremost, and whenever he entered Afghanistan, practical control passed to the Soviets. Eventually Bose could make his way to Rangoon where a new arrangement was made by the Axis. Subhas codenamed ‘RHINO’ sponsored by the Japanese and codename ‘ELEPHANT’ sponsored by the Germans to remain in touch with ‘MARY’ in Delhi. Netaji set up a pro-Axis Provisional Government of Free India in Andaman and Nicobar Islands. PG operated successfully military deception plans with military intelligent tactics. Netaji began to broadcast anti-British Propaganda as the Voice of Azad Hind. He made it clear that neither his armed forces nor his Azad Hind Radio Service could be used for anti-Soviet purposes. Unfortunately, the strategic deception role of Netaji remained secret for decades.

Abstract:
This article seeks to explore a hitherto unploughed field of research on Indian freedom movement in general and Subhas Chandra Bose in particular that is the influence of Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, the famous novelist of Bengal in the life of Subhas Chandra Bose, the militant nationalist. While Bankim Chandra was never embroiled in politics, yet his influence on Indian nationalist movement was most profound. It was particularly discernible in the firebrand revolutionaries of Bengal whose legacy was inherited by Subhas Chandra Bose. No work on Bankim Chandra’s influence on the inception, germination, evolution, articulation maturation and expression of Bose’s concept of nationalism has been produced so far. The article tries to recapture and reassess the extent of reflection of Bankim Chandra’s outlook on British rule in India and India’s subjection to British imperialism, the contentious issue of Hindu nationalism and also related pertinent issues like communalism and secularism. It is a comparative study which intends to review these issues and questions in critical perspective. The central point is that Bankim Chandra’s influence on Bose was not transitory but everlasting and Bankim was always an abiding source of inspiration behind all his nationalist endeavour.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction Contraception is an important intervention to reduce unwanted pregnancy and promote healthy and better living among women. As the population continues to rise, there will be overcrowding, a limiting of resources, and the quality of life will decline. India, as the first country in the world, initiated the National Family Planning program in the year 1951 with the objective of “reducing the birth rate to the extent necessary to stabilize the population at a level consistent with requirement of national economy.” Objectives (1) To study awareness, acceptance, and preferred method of contraception among postpartum women. (2) To identify the reasons for rejection of contraceptive methods. (3) To contribute to the development of knowledge in the area of family planning. Materials and methods The study is a community-based cross-sectional observational study. The study was conducted among postpartum women in reproductive age group who delivered in our hospital in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College & Hospital, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India. A total of 480 married women were interviewed in the local language using a pretested questionnaire. Their level of awareness, acceptance, and reason for acceptance/refusal was assessed. Results A total of 65.2% of women were aware of at least one method of contraception; 73.9% women were using a contraceptive at the time of study; 34.8% women were unaware of any health care facility providing contraceptives in the vicinity. Maximum number of women preferred intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD; 38.8%) as their first choice. Knowledge and practice of emergency contraceptive was very low. Main reason for nonacceptance of contraceptive was lack of knowledge and fear of side effects. Health professionals were the main source of knowledge. Conclusion There is till date lack of awareness of contraception in some postpartum women. Regular counseling is a must to all pregnant women from every health care center in a village to superspeciality centers in cities. Information should be provided about various methods of contraception and patient should be able to choose a method of her choice. How to cite this article Sahu B, Tiwari P, Uikey V, Badkur P.

Abstract:
8634 Background: The solid content of juice made from wheat grass is 70% chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is often referred to as “The blood of plant life” and has almost the same chemical structure as haemoglobin. Chlorophyll cleanses the blood by improving the supply of oxygen to the circulatory system. Wheat grass is also a complete protein with about 30 enzymes, vitamins & minerals. Wheat grass juice has been proven over many years to benefit people in numerous ways, building the blood, restoring balance in the body, removing toxic metals from the cells, nourishing the liver & kidneys and restoring vitality. The aim of our study was to see the effect of wheat grass juice in terminally ill cancer patients to improve the quality of life. Methods: During period from January 2003 to December 2005 we selected 400 solid organ cancer patients in our palliative care unit of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute to see the effect of wheat grass on improvement of haemoglobin level, serum protein & performance status on terminally ill cancer patients. The age range of the patients was 22 year to 87 year (median age 42 years). The different types of cancers were Lung (25%), Breast (20%), Oesophagaus (11%), Colon (9%), Ovary (8%), Hepatocellular carcinoma (6%), Stomach (6%) and others (15%) respectively. We cultivated wheat grass in our campus. When the grasses were 5 days old we took the fresh leaves including roots and made fresh juice out of that and had given 30ml of juice to all our 400 cancer patients for continuous 6 months. Result: The mean levels of haemoglobin, Serum total protein, albumin and performance status were 8gm%, 5.4gm%, 2.2gm% and 50%. Fifty patients required transfusion support & those patients were excluded from the study. Other 348 patients are evaluated 6 months after giving wheat grass juice. The mean values for haemoglobin, total protein & albumin were improved significantly (pvalue < .005) and were observed mean of 9.6gm%, 7.4gm% and 3.1gm%. White blood cell & platelet count were same in both the cases. The performance status was improved from 50% to 70% (Karnofsky) after wheat grass treatment. Conclusion: We concluded that wheat grass juice is an effective alternative of blood transfusion. Its use in terminally ill cancer patients should be encouraged.

Abstract:
Abstract Background: Previously it was thought that the chlorophyll of wheat grass (Triticum astevum) may be the substitute of haemoglobin of RBC having resemblance of similar structure. A group of Austrelian scientists tried to prove that wheat grass juice increases the foetal haemoglobin level 3–5 folds in intermediate thalassaemia patients. A pilot study with wheat grass juice in major thalassaemia patients were done by Dr. Marwa et al in IPGMR, Chandigarh, India. But there is no satisfactory explanation behind the reduced blood transfusion requirements after consumption of wheat grass juice for a long period. The aim of our study was to see the effect of wheat grass juice in blood transfusion requirement in intermediate thalassaemia patients and also do the biochemical analysis of the wheat grass juice. Material & Methods: During period from January 2003 to December 2006 we selected 200 intermediate thalassaemia patients (E-thalassaemia, E-Beta & Sickle thal) in the paediatric oncology department of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Cancer Research Institute. The age range of the patients was 1 year to 35 years (median age 18 years). The different types of thalasssaemia were E-Beta Thalassaemia 80% (160 patients), E-Thalassaemia 15% (30 patients) and Sickle Thalassaemia 5% (10 patients). When the wheat grasses were 5–7 days old, the fresh leaves including steams were made fresh juice and had given 30ml of juice daily to all our 200 patients for continuous 6 months. Wheat grass juice was analysed by column chromatography and found to be rich in oxalic acid and malic acid which might have some role in dietary absorption of iron from intestine. Beside that the wheat grass juice was found to contain a unique iron chelating property which was performed by deoxyribose degradation assay. We compared aqueous soluble extract of 5–7th day plant and our dose dependant study showed a significant iron chelating activity of crude extract in comparison to known standard iron chelator desferroxamine (DFO). The active compounds of crude extract of wheat grass may chelate catalytic iron in iron overload disorders when taking systematic dose. Result: The mean levels of haemoglobin before starting wheat grass juice were 6.2gm%. After 6months of wheat grass therapy the mean value for haemoglobin was 7.8gm% (pvalue <. 005). Twenty four patients (12%) require blood transfusion (haemoglobin < 6gm%). The performance status was improved from 60% to 80% (Karnofsky) after wheat grass treatment. The ferritin level of all patients before the study was found to be decreased significantly after wheat grass juice consumption. The mean interval between transfusion were found increased. Being a natural potent iron chelator and H2O2 quencher, it prevents the hydroxyl radical production by Fenton reaction in the RBC. Thus it may prevent the breakdown of plasma membrane of RBC and haemoglobin level becomes stable for a prolonged period. Conclusion: We may conclude that wheat grass juice is an effective alternative of blood transfusion. It’s use in intermediate thalassaemia patients should be encouraged.
