    Abstract Background and objectives: Anwar Ratol is one of the most famous cultivar of mango in South Asia, especially Pakistan. Mango leaves are left as food waste. This study evaluated the potential of mango (Anwar Ratol) leaves for their use against diabetes mellitus. Material and Methods: In this study, hydro-alcoholic extract of the plant leaves was prepared and evaluated by electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the presence of phytochemicals. The plant extract was administered to Alloxan induced diabetic mice followed by evaluation through oral glucose tolerance test; determination of postprandial glucose, body weight, lipid profile and histopathological evaluation of pancreas. Results: Chemical evaluation revealed the presence of mangiferin, rhamnetin, catechin, epicatechin, iriflophenone 3-C-β-D-glucoside, gallic acid and other phenolic and flavonoid compounds. The plant extract exhibited a decrease in postprandial blood glucose following seven days therapy in diabetic mice. The extract also prevented the rise in blood glucose level as determined by glucose tolerance test in diabetic mice. Furthermore, therapy of diabetic mice with the extract prevented a decrease in body weight and decline in beta-cell mass associated with alloxan and improved lipid profile. Conclusion: The findings of the study clearly suggested that the leaf extract of the plant might possess anti-diabetic activity possibly due to the presence of mangiferin and other phytochemicals such as phenolic and flavonoid compounds. This study will serve as a basis for the use of mango leaf extract against diabetes. Furthermore, this study will also provide basis for the bioassay-based fractionation and isolation of active principles responsible for the antidiabetic potential of mango leaves.

    Abstract Purpose: To compare the outcomes of 2 techniques (Anwar vs. Melles) of deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) in patients with keratoconus.
    Design: Randomized, double-blind clinical trial.
    Participants: Fifty-seven eyes of 57 patients 20 to 35 years of age were enrolled.
    Methods: Patients with clinical diagnosis of keratoconus who were contact lens intolerant and whose corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was less than 20/80 were enrolled. Eligible eyes were allocated randomly into 2 groups: the Anwar technique (23 eyes) or the Melles technique (25 eyes).
    Main outcome measures: The primary outcome measure was CDVA. Secondary outcomes were spherical equivalent, contrast sensitivity, corneal aberrations, corneal biomechanical properties, endothelial cell count, and central corneal thickness. All outcomes were compared 15 months after surgery.
    Results: The CDVA was 0.17 ± 0.09 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) units and 0.18 ± 0.11 logMAR units in the Anwar and Melles groups, respectively (P = 0.803). Spherical equivalent was -1.82 ± 2.7 diopters (D) and -2.69 ± 3.94 D in the Anwar and Melles groups, respectively (P = 0.155). Overall, the difference in photopic and mesopic contrast sensitivity function between the 2 groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between 2 groups in total and higher-order aberrations up to the fifth order (P>0.05 for all parameters). Corneal hysteresis was not significantly different between the 2 groups (9.9 ± 0.8 vs. 9.9 ± 0.6; P = 0.606). The corneal resistance factor was 10.02 ± 0.8 and 10.13 ± 0.76 (P = 0.509). There was no significant difference in percentage of endothelial cell loss between the 2 groups (1 ± 2% vs. 1 ± 3% in the Anwar and Melles groups, respectively; P = 0.869). Mean central corneal thickness was 525.56 ± 47.87 μm versus 504.64 ± 54.20 μm in the Anwar and Melles groups, respectively (P = 0.155).
    Conclusions: The Anwar and Melles techniques of DALK have comparable visual acuity and refractive outcomes, aberrometric profiles, biomechanical properties, corneal thicknesses, and endothelial cell densities. However, patients who underwent the Anwar technique showed better contrast sensitivity.

    Abstract Background: Osteoporosis is a systemic disease and involves all bones, including temporal bone. Demineralization of temporal bone including otic capsule and auditory ossicles is suspected to be the cause of hearing loss. Purpose: This study aims to determine whether osteoporosis can cause the decrease of otic capsule and auditory ossicles density and increase the hearing threshold. Method: an Observational analytic study with a cross sectional design involving 18 osteoporosis patients and 18 non-osteoporosis patients who had bone mineral density examination. The hearing was examined with Interaccoustic AA222 audiometer while otic capsule and auditory ossicles density were measured using Toshiba Aquilion 128 CT. Results: Hearing loss was found in 22 of 36 osteoporosis patients ears (61.11%) and 8 of 36 non-osteoporosis patients ears (22.22%). The density of malleus, incus, ROI I, and ROI II between the osteoporosis and non osteoporosis groups showed significant differences (p<0.05; malleus: 1147 ± 85 HU vs 1212 ± 80 HU; incus: 1127 ± 94 HU vs 1184 ± 81 HU; ROI I: 1895 ± 72 HU vs 1981 ± 101 HU; ROI II: 1903 ± 61 HU vs 1968 ± 88 HU).). While for stapes density (1086 ± 90 HU vs 1110 ± 86 HU) did not show a significant difference (p>0.05). The hearing threshold between two groups (30.83 ± 9.42 dB vs 23.26 ± 8.09 dB) showed significant differences (p<0.05). The density of malleus, incus, stapes, ROI I, and ROI II negatively significant (p<0.05) correlated to the hearing threshold with each correlation coefficient were -0.498, -0.391, -0.255, -0.690, and -0.562. Conclusion: The density of malleus, incus, and otic capsule between the osteoporosis and non-osteoporosis groups showed significant differences. The density of the otic capsule and auditory ossicles are negatively correlated with the hearing threshold.

    Abstract Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital malformation. It represents 0.15-6.4% of all congenital pulmonary malformations. It is characterized by non-functional, dysplastic mass of lung tissue that is not in communication with the normal tracheobronchial tree and is associated with a systemic arterial supply. We report a young gentleman in his mid-thirties who presented with community-acquired pneumonia from an infected intralobar pulmonary sequestration which subsequently developed a hemothorax from an anomalous bronchial artery bleed.
