Abstract :We will present the case of a 63-year-old male patient who underwent extensive neurological and cardiological treatment over a period of several years due to a history of unresolved syncopes. It was only after the installation of the loop recorder that the cardiologic etiology of the syncope was established in the form of a recorded pause of 70 seconds with rhythm disturbances in the form of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia. After an ICD device (implantable cardioverter defibrillator) was installed, the patient’s symptoms completely resolved. |

Author : Nagesh Madnoorkar, Pramod Shinde, Aarti Anvikar, Saylee Madnoorkar |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :GIST – Gastrointestinal stromal tumor is the most common mesenchymal tumor of the gastrointestinal tract with an annual incidence of 11-20% per 1 million people. In GIT, the most common site of presentation is the stomach (70%) followed by the small intestine (20-30%), remaining (10%) in the colon, rectum, and oesophagus. GIST occurs due to mutations in the receptor tyrosine kinase KIT gene. Few cases have mutations in the PDGFRA gene. Here we report a rare case of Duodeno-Jejunal (DJ) flexure GIST with a history of pain in the abdomen and melena. |

A Retrospective Study Of 20 Cases Of Uterine Sarcoma In A Single Institute Over 10 Year Period |
Author : Dr. V. Shilpa, Dr. Rajshekar Shantappa, Dr. Guduru Sahiti, Dr. Megha S. Uppin |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Objective: Uterine sarcomas are rare tumors arising from mesenchyme of uterus and th are diagnosed late because of confusing clinical and radiological presentation as urerine fibroids .In post hysterectomy pateints uterine sarcomas can present as pelvic or abdominal tumors causing confusion with tumors of bladder , bowel or other abdominal/pelvic malignancies. Histopathological examination and immuno histochemistry aids in diagnosis of uterine sarcoma and proper management of pateints. Hence 20 cases are studied in detail for better understanding of this rare entity.
Methods: A retrospective study of 20 cases of uterine sarcoma was done. Details of patient are collected from departments of surgical oncology, medical oncology, pathology, radiology and outpatient records.
Results: Uterine sarcomas are rare tumors and are usually diagnosed late. Most common types of uterine sarcoma are endometrial stromal sarcoma. leimyosarcoma, undifferentiated uterine sarcoma and adenosarcoma Abnormal uterine bleeding is the most common complaint and there are no specific complaints or radiological findings.Endometrial stromal sarcomas are known for their indolent course,in our study 6 pateints had hysterectomy in the past and years later presented as pelvic or abdominal masses causing diagnostic dilemma .Histopathology and immunohistochemistry aids in diagnosis and timely management of uterine sarcomas.
Conclusion: In 20 cases of uterine sarcoma, patients presented with complaints of abnormal uterine bleeding, pain abdomen, mass per abdomen, hematuria and constipation, radiological findings revealed either fibroid uterus or degenerated fibroid or ovarian cyst or bladder tumor or bowel tumor or retroperitoneal tumor in none of the cases uterine sarcoma was in list of differential diagnosis. Diagnosis was made only after histopathological examination and immuno histochemistry. Cases of Uterine sarcomas diagnosed at early stage through proper suspicion for this rare tumor and confirmation with histopathology and immunohistochemistry have better survival and quality of life compared to cases which are mis managed. Hence study was done. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The study aimed at carrying out the inventory, distribution and analysis of healthcare facilities in Nasarawa state using remote sensing and geographic information system (GIS) techniques. Field mapping was conducted and coordinates with attributes of these healthcare facilities were recorded. GIS analysis using multiple ring buffer and cluster extension of the spatial analysis tool in ArcGIS 10.8 version was used. Result revealed a total of 1,119 healthcare facilities distributed across the state. Out of which 807 are government primary healthcare, while 227 are private primary and 24 government secondary whereas 60 are private secondary and one tertiary healthcare facility. Result also revealed significant disparities in the distribution of government tertiary healthcare facilities across the local government areas with only having such facility in the whole of Nasarawa State. This indicates limited access to specialized healthcare services. The general trend of health facilities in Nasarawa state is towards clustering because these facilities are intended to reside close to settlements and thus will present some degree of clustering though the level may differ between different types of facilities. The buffer analysis in secondary healthcare showed a wide number of settlements by local government that need more present of secondary healthcare facility in Nasarawa state showing good accessibility of health care facility to the settlement within 1 km and 10 km radius. The government own primary healthcare facilities record a z-score of -17.52725 and 0.677488 nearest neighbour ratio suggesting a very strong trend towards clustering, and from the analysis, there is a less than 1% chance of randomness or dispersion. This indicates that there is a lot needs to be done to ensure a more dispersed and competitive distribution of these facilities. The private primary healthcare facilities have a z-score of -18.527370 and nearest neighbour ratio of 0.357209, which shows very significant clustering alongside an identical 1% probability of random distribution. This clearly indicates that there is need for strategic planning and resource allocation to the health sector to ensure an equitable, dispersed and competitive distribution of these facilities. The findings from this study have implications for the actualization of the United Nations’ health-related Sustainable Development Goal (SDG-3) and also to achieve the Universal health coverage. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The global incidence and prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus has continued to increase over the past three decades and is expected to triple by 2030.1 Based on data from the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2021, 1.28 billion adults worldwide have hypertension.4 In relation to type 2 DM therapy, patient non-compliance in undergoing treatment can cause failure to control blood sugar levels and can cause cardiovascular complications.5
Objective: To determine the relationship between adherence to medication consumption in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the incidence of hypertension.
Methods: This study used an analytical descriptive method with cross sectional design. Sampling used consecutive sampling techniques with the sample size obtained using the Slovin formula, where the population was 447, resulting in a total sample of 218 respondents who made the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Primary data was obtained from the Medication Adherence Rating Scale-10 (MARS-10) questionnaire which was filled in by the respondent and the respondent’s blood pressure was checked by automatic sphygmomanometer Kenz AC-05P. Data was analyzed using SPSS-25 software with the chi- square test.
Results: From 218 respondents, 80 respondents were non-adherent in taking medication and suffered from hypertension (90.9%) and 8 respondents were non-adherent in taking medication and did not suffer from hypertension (9.1%). There were 29 respondents who adhered to taking medication and suffered from hypertension (22.3%) and 101 respondents who adhered to taking medication and did not suffer from hypertension (77.7%). These results obtained a p-value of 0.000 <0.05, which means there is a relationship between adherence to drug consumption in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the incidence of hypertension.
Conclusion: There is a relationship between adherence to drug consumption in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the occurrence of hypertension at Puskesmas Sentosa Baru and Puskesmas Sering in Medan City. |
