    Abstract OBJECTIVE: To assess the incidence of acute acalculous cholecystitis in patients with dengue fever and assess its association with laboratory parameters. METHODOLOGY: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Creek General Hospital, United Medical and Dental College, Karachi, Pakistan, from September 2020 to October 2021. Patients were included in the study through consecutive sampling. After their informed consent, all adult patients diagnosed with dengue fever, based on serological tests, were included in this study. Exclusion criteria were co-existing cholelithiasis, chronic liver disease, hemolytic and rheumatological disorders, metabolic syndrome, dyslipidemia, chronic kidney disease, use of oral contraceptive pills, pregnant females, enteric fever, vasculitis and recent surgery or trauma.The ultrasonographic features of these patients were recorded along with other laboratory investigations. SPSS ver 23.0 was used to analyze the data. Student t-tests and Chi-square tests were used to assess the association between the variables, and a P-value of <0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: 248 patients with dengue fever were included in this study. More than 49% of these patients were diagnosed to have acalculous cholecystitis. Development of this condition was significantly associated with hemoconcentration, thrombocytopenia, leucopenia and transaminitis. All the patients recovered with conservative management, but the duration of hospital stay for these patients was considerably higher than in those without this condition. CONCLUSION: Almost half of the patients diagnosed with Dengue fever developed acalculous cholecystitis. These patients recovered with conservative management.

    Abstract BACKGROUND: Anemia is seen in a large proportion of the population especially in developing countries. It poses a major challenge to improving the health indices especially in the female and pediatric populations. Anemia causes increased disability, morbidity and mortality. Presence of anemia prolongs hospital stay and increases the possibility of re-admission. The diagnosis and management of anemia in hospitalized patients will improve outcomes of this population. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of anemia, its etiology and its association with various risk factors. STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY: Department of Medicine, United Medical and Dental College, Karachi from May, 2016 to December, 2016. METHODOLGY: All adult patients admitted in the medical wards of Creek General Hospital were included in the study. Anemia was defined as a hemoglobin of <13g/dl in males and <12g/dl in females. All anemic patients were taken as cases while non-anemic patients were taken as controls. Critically ill patients, patients with active bleeding and pregnant women were excluded from the study. The data was recorded on a detailed proforma, and the etiology, severity, type of anemia and associated factors were recorded. The data was presented as means with standard deviation for continuous variables and as percentages for categorical variables. Comparison of different factors with anemia was computed using SPSS 20.0. Chi-square and student t- test were used and p-value of <0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: Around 71% of the patients were found to be anemic. 72.5% of the female population and 67% of the male population were anemic. The commonest cause of anemia was infection. Majority of the women had microcytic anemia. There was no relationship of age, income, educational status, number of dependents and diet on the presence of anemia. In women anemia was significantly related to breast feeding and parity. Infectious diseases, nutritional ...
