Importance COVID-19 mRNA vaccine-associated myocarditis has previously been described; however specific features in the adolescent population are currently not well understood. Objective To describe myocarditis adverse events following immunisation reported following any COVID-19 mRNA vaccines in the adolescent population in Victoria, Australia. Design Statewide, population-based study. Setting Surveillance of Adverse Events Following Vaccination in the Community (SAEFVIC) is the vaccine-safety service for Victoria, Australia. Participants All SAEFVIC reports of myocarditis and myopericarditis in 12–17-year-old COVID-19 mRNA vaccinees submitted between 22 February 2021 and 22 February 2022, as well as accompanying diagnostic investigation results where available, were assessed using Brighton Collaboration criteria for diagnostic certainty. Exposures Any mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. Main outcomes/Mmeasure Confirmed myocarditis as per Brighton Collaboration criteria (levels 1–3). Results Clinical review demonstrated definitive (Brighton level 1) or probable (level 2) diagnoses in 75 cases. Confirmed myocarditis reporting rates were 8.3 per 100 000 doses in this age group. Cases were predominantly male (n=62, 82.7%) and post dose 2 (n=61, 81.3%). Rates peaked in the 16–17-year-old age group and were higher in males than females (17.7 vs 3.9 per 100 000, p=<0.001). The most common presenting symptoms were chest pain, dyspnoea and palpitations. A large majority of cases who had a cardiac MRI had abnormalities (n=33, 91.7%). Females were more likely to have ongoing clinical symptoms at 1-month follow-up (p=0.02). Conclusion Accurate evaluation and confirmation of episodes of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine-associated myocarditis enabled understanding of clinical phenotypes in the adolescent age group. Any potential vaccination and safety surveillance policies needs to consider age and gender differences.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is the leading cause of acute flaccid paralysis in children. This study was aimed to compare the clinical spectrum and shortterm outcome of children with acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP) and acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) subtypes of GBS in children. Methods: The study was a prospective cohort study done in a tertiary neurology hospital for 3 years. Children under 18 years of age fulfilling the Brighton diagnostic criteria for GBS were enrolled in the study. Based on the nerve conduction study, patients were subclassified as AIDP, AMAN, AMSAN, and others. Finally, a comparison was done in children with AIDP and AMAN subtypes. Results: A total of 102 children have fulfilled the Brighton diagnostic criteria of GBS during that study period. Among them, 83 children were included in the final analysis as NCS findings suggestive of AIDP and AMAN were found in 29(28.43%) and 54(52.94%) of cases respectively. No patient died in this cohort and follow-up was done at 3 months after discharge. A comparison of clinical data between the two groups revealed similar clinical features in most of the cases. The mean age difference between the two groups was statistically significant and AIDP was found to be more frequent in the 1-5 years age group. There was a significant association between gastroenteritis and AMAN subtypes. On symptom analysis, pain and tingling sensation were found predominantly in AMAN subtypes. Children having AMAN variants developed respiratory distress more than AIDP. Assisted ventilation were needed in 14.45% of cases and the majority of them were from the AMAN group. The mean duration of hospital stay and the mean disability scores at three months after discharge were significantly higher in the AMAN group. Conclusions: AMAN was the commonest GBS subtypes in children. AIDP was more frequent in the younger age group. Children with AMAN appeared to have higher short-term morbidity and slower recovery than those with AIDP. Bang. J Neurosurgery 2022; 11(2): 94-100

Full textAbstract:
Single, older women in the State of Victoria, Australia, have emerged as a group experiencing housing insecurity and being highly vulnerable to homelessness in their old age. A sizable demographic cohort, it is a group that could overwhelm the existing homelessness service system. One of the most surprising aspects of this trend is their propensity to be tertiary educated. Focus groups revealed ‘critical life events’ as significant, and a shared ‘control belief’ in the value of education. Given that education is a key means by which Australian governments seek to remedy homelessness, the entry of educated women into the homelessness population suggests policy needs to re-examine homelessness causation and explicitly apply a gender-lens.

Objectives: To find out the frequency of retinopathy in low birth weight infant presenting at tertiary care hospital, Bahawalpur. Study Design: Cross sectional study. Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Bahawal Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur. Period: From July 2018 to December 2018. Material & Methods: Neonatal eye examination was performed for ROP. Results: Total 78 neonates were recruited for present study and ROP was assessed. Mean gestational age of neonates was 32.54 ± 3.79 weeks. Mean weight was 1445.51 ± 517.373 grams. Out of 78 neonates, ROP was observed in 28 (36%) neonates. ROP was found in 27 (42.19%) neonates of premature group and in 1 (7.14%) neonates of at term group. ROP was found in 1 (3.23%), 5 (29.41%) and 22 (73.33%) neonates respectively in weight group 1500-2500 g, 1000-1500 g and <1000 g group. Male neonates were 35 (44.87%) and female neonates were 43 (55.13%). Development of ROP was not significantly (P = 0.248) associated with gender of the neonates. Statistically significant association between ROP and oxygen supplementation was observed with p value 0.021. Conclusion: Results showed higher number of patients with ROP. Association of development of ROP with gestation was highly significant. Oxygen supplementation and oxygen concentration was also associated with ROP. Findings also showed no effect of gender and duration of hospital stay on ROP.

Full textAbstract:
The Torquay Sub-basin lies to the south of Port Phillip Bay in Victoria. It has two main tectonic elements; a Basin Deep area which is flanked to the southeast by the shallower Snail Terrace. It is bounded by the Otway Ranges to the northwest and shallow basement elsewhere. The stratigraphy of the area reflects the influence of two overlapping basins. The Lower Cretaceous section is equivalent to the Otway Group of the Otway Basin, whilst the Upper Cretaceous and Tertiary section is comparable with the Bass Basin stratigraphy.The Torquay Sub-basin apparently has all of the essential ingredients needed for successful hydrocarbon exploration. It has good reservoir-seal pairs, moderate structural deformation and probable source rocks in a deep kitchen. Four play types are recognised:Large Miocene age anticlines, similar to those in the Gippsland Basin, with an Eocene sandstone reservoir objective;The same reservoir in localised Oligocene anticlines associated with fault inversion;Possible Lower Cretaceous Eumeralla Formation sandstones in tilted fault blocks and faulted anticlines; andLower Cretaceous Crayfish Sub-group sandstones also in tilted fault block traps.Maturity modelling suggests that the Miocene anticlines post-date hydrocarbon generation. Poor reservoir potential and complex fault trap geometries downgrade the two Lower Cretaceous plays.The Oligocene play was tested by Wild Dog-1 which penetrated excellent Eocene age reservoir sands beneath a plastic shale seal, however, the well failed to encounter any hydrocarbons. Post-mortem analysis indicates the well tested a valid trap. The failure of the well is attributed to a lack of charge. Remaining exploration potential is limited to the deeper plays which have much greater risks associated with each play element.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and electrophysiologicaspects of Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS) in children.
Methodology: This cross-sectional study was carried out in the Department of Neurophysiology of National Institute of Neurosciences and Hospital, Bangladesh from July 2016 to June 2018. Patients under 18 years of age fulfilling Brighton diagnostic criteria for GBS were included in this study. These patients were evaluated by detailed history, physical examination, and electrophysiological findings.
Results: A total of 82 patients of GBS were enrolled in this study. The mean age was 12.93± 5.02 years (range 1 to<18 years). Most of the patients were male (64.6%) and from the middle-income group (70.73%). About Fourty eight percent of patients had a history of preceding illness among which gastrointestinal infection(24.3%) was the most common. Tingling and paresthesiaswas complained by 32.4% of patients as the first symptom. AMAN(61%) was the most common GBS variant followed by AIDP(26.8%). 9 (11%) patients needed ICU support among them AIDP was more frequent.
Conclusion: AMAN is the most common variant among children in this population by electrophysiologic testing.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Fistula in ano is a common disease which has high recurrence rate and high fecal incontinence rate after surgery. We compared modified LIFT (Ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) through lateral approach ) with cutting seton for transphincteric fistula. Aim: This study is aimed at which procedure is better with respect to postoperative complications Study design: It was a prospective comparative study. Methods: This was a prospective comparative study from 01-01-2019 to 30-06-2021 which was conducted on 50 patients who presented with transsphincteric fistula in ano (FIA) in surgical ward of Bahawal Victoria Hospital Bahawalpur. Patients were divided into two groups .Patients of Group A underwent modified lift procedure and patients of group B underwent cutting seton procedure. Data was collected on a proforma which included patients’ name ,age ,sex, age group, comorbid disease like diabetes mellitus ,chronic liver disease, cardiovascular disease and chronic renal failure, fistula tract involving less than 50% or more than 50% external sphincter ,procedure done, healing time of wound, complications like recurrence and incontinence. Patients were followed for 6 months for healing rate ,recurrence and incontinence. Data was analysed on spss 22 version Results: In Group A, complete healing (fistula closure without recurrence) was achieved in 20 patients (80%) out of 25. There was no case of anal incontinence after the procedure. 5 (20%) patients experienced recurrence in 6 months . In Group B, complete healing (fistula closure without recurrence) was achieved in 21 patients (84%), in 6 months follow up . 4(16%) patients were diagnosed as a case of anal incontinence. There were 4 (16%) patients with recurrence. Conclusion: Modified LIFT is better in terms of incontinence where as cutting seton is better in terms of recurrence.it is suggested that for high lying fistula modified LIFT is better procedure and for low lying fistula involving less than 50% sphincter cutting seton is better procedure.. Keywords: Modified LIFT (ligation of ineter sphincteric fistula tract) ,Cutting seton , transphincteric fistula.

Objective: To compare the patient outcome in severe COVID-19 pneumonia between the non-invasive ventilation and invasive mechanical ventilation. Study design: Prospective, observational study Study Setting and Duration: Department of Pulmonology, Bahawal Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur from January 2021 to June 2021. Methodology: We analyzed 660 patients of severe covid pneumonia. Conscious proning was done in those requiring ≥ 21 L oxygen and oxygen saturation < 90%. We defined typical ARDS according to Berlin criteria. Atypical ARDS did not fulfill set criteria. We divided ARDS into 2 types i-e H and L type. We managed ARDS with either NIV, invasive mechanical ventilation or both. We used multiple regression analysis to predict ICU stay. Results: Out of 660 patients, 285 (43.18%) developed biPAP failure and were subsequently intubated. We observed 273 (41.4%) overall mortality, 175 (64.1%) in IMV and 98 (35.9%) in the NIV group (p<0.0001). invasive mechanical ventilation had statistically significant correlation with mortality and also predicted ICU stay. (p=< 0.001, OR 3.2, p=0.001). Conclusion: NIV therapy is superior to invasive mechanical ventilation in terms of ICU stay and outcome.
