Abstract	Objective: To demonstrate the relationship of smoking with type- 2 diabetes mellitus. Patients and methods: This study was conducted at Department of Medicine, Bilawal Medical College LUMHS Jamshoro, and Pakistan from January 2021 to June 2021. Researchers included 100 smokers older than 35 years of either gender who had smoked less than five years and the control group had 100 non-cross-sectional individuals in the same age range. In addition to the age of beginning smoking, the number of cigarettes smoked on a daily basis, whether the patient is currently a smoker or an ex-smoker, and the total duration of smoking was taken from the patients. Patients with type-2 diabetes were asked about their age at diagnosis, the medication used, and whether the disease was controlled. The pathology laboratory or glucometer was used to test the patient's blood glucose levels. Other routine investigations were also performed as needed if needed. In this six-month study, 200 individuals were observed closely for diabetes mellitus (100 smokers and 100 non-smokers). There was a predominance of male gender among smokers and non-smokers with a mean age of 50.987.86 and 48.848.63. Of the smokers, 68 (68%) cases were identified as being diabetic, while of the non-smokers, 24 (24%) were identified as diabetic. Diabetic mellitus type 2 is directly associated with the number and duration of cigarettes smoked. Results: This was a study of six months comprising of two hundred people (hundred smokers and hundred non-smokers) were seen and evaluated thoroughly for diabetes mellitus. The average age ± SD for total smoker and non-smokers was approximately 50.98 ± 7.86 and 48.84 ± 8.63 with a clear predominance of male gender. In case of smoker group a total of diabetic individuals were 68 (68%) while in case of non-smokers the total number of diabetes was 24 (24%) individuals. The proportionality is directly related to the total number of cigarette smoked and the total duration of smoking. Conclusion: The risk of diabetes mellitus type-2 is independent of gender, depending mainly on the duration of smoking. Higher is the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus in individuals with a longer duration of smoking.

Abstract	Objective: To determine the relative diagnostic efficacy of ultrasonography versus Magnetic Resonance Cholan-giopancreatography for the diagnosis of common duct stones. Study Design: Prospective observational study. Place and Duration of Study: Armed Forces Institute of Radiology & Imaging (AFIRI) Rawalpindi, from Jun 2017 to Jun 2018. Methodology: All the patients with the suspicion of common bile duct stones during the study period were included in the study. All study patients underwent abdominal ultrasonography, Magnetic Resonance Cholangio Pancreatography and Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography. Results: A total of one hundred and thirty-four patients were included in this study. There were stones in common duct in 101 (75%) cases using Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography as gold standard. Ultrasonography indicated stones in 79 (78.2%) while Magnetic Resonance Cholangio Pancreatography diagnosed stones in 93 (92%) patients. The diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography and Magnetic Resonance Cholangio Pancreatography 70.50% and 92.4% respectively. Conclusion: Magnetic Resonance Cholangio Pancreatography is an accurate and sensitive diagnostic modality as compared to USG so it should be the logical next investigation if clinical suspicion remains high.

Abstract	Background: Adherence to antihypertensive therapy is an important factor in determining the clinical course of hypertension. This study was planned to estimate adherence to antihypertensive therapy and its determinants among OPD patients attending two primary care hospitals in Kashmir valley. Methods: This study employed a cross-sectional study design. All subjects who reported to OPD between October and December 2020 and had been prescribed antihypertensive medications for at least 1 year were included. Sociodemographic information was collected on a pretested schedule and adherence to medications was assessed by using the-14 item Hill-Bone HBP Compliance to High Blood Pressure Therapy Scale (HB-HBP). Mann–Whitney test and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient were used. Results: A total of 406 subjects were included in the final analysis with a mean age of 58 years for women and 56 years for men. The sample comprised 54% women. More than 60% of subjects were currently married, urban area residents, and belonged to middle strata of social class. The mean score obtained in the HB-MAS (maximum score 56) was 19.26 (SD ± 4.3). Subjects aged 60 years and above, those belonging to lower socioeconomic class, and subjects prescribed three or more drugs with more than once-daily dosing regimen had higher odds of having poor adherence. Conclusion: There is suboptimal adherence among OPD patients at primary care level. There is a need for enhanced counselling regarding medication adherence particularly for elderly, poor, illiterate persons and those prescribed multiple medicines with more than once-daily dosing.

Abstract	BACKGROUND: The objective was to assess the prevalence and the associated demographic factors of stress, anxiety, and depression among undergraduate (UG) Indian dental students and determine whether the pattern is different in government-run institutions and those managed by private authorities. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted among dental UG students from five dental colleges. Snowball sampling was used to approach 776 potential participants, resulting in a complete response from 507 students. The questionnaire consisted of demographic data; year of study; type of college; accommodation; and Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS)-42. Descriptive data and inferential statistics were obtained. Chi-square test was applied for categorical data to test for significance, and higher analysis was done using multiple linear regression. RESULTS: Females and males comprised 71.8% (n = 364) and 28.2% (n = 143) of the study population, respectively. The prevalence of anxiety was highest (66.86%, n = 339), followed by depression (57.39%, n = 291) and stress (43.99%, n = 223). In terms of severity also, anxiety was the most prevalent condition as more than one-fourth of the students presented with severe and very severe scores in this aspect (25.43%, n = 129) compared to depression (14.39%, n = 73) and stress (10.09%, n = 51). Regression analysis revealed age as a strong positive predictor for all the three conditions, while staying in the hostel was a positive predictor for anxiety and stress. Being female was also an independent predictor for the high prevalence of stress. CONCLUSION: Stress, anxiety, and depression are highly prevalent among Indian dental students. Clinical students and interns have a higher prevalence of stress than preclinical students. Age, being female, and staying in the hostel are positive predictors for the severity of stress. There is no significant difference between government and private colleges, regarding the prevalence of any psychological condition.

Abstract	Objective: To study the HRCT chest findings in patients undergoing cardiac interventions during COVID-19 era. Study Design: Cross sectional analytical study. Place and Duration of Study: Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology & National Institute of Heart Disease (AFIC/NIHD) Rawalpindi, from Apr 2020 to May 2020. Methodology: All the admitted cardiac patients who were to undergo any invasive cardiac intervention underwent plain HRCT chest and polymerase chain Reaction (PCR) for SARS-CoV-2 simultaneously. One hundred and ten patients were studied. We analyzed preexisting respiratory illnesses, clinical, echocardiographic and radiological features. Data recording, storage, assessment and analysis was done by using SPSS-21. Results: Our study included 110 patients (87 Male, 23 Female, median age 52 Years). Common reasons for admission were coronary angiography 43 (39.1%), acute Left Ventricular Failure (LVF) 30 (27.3%), Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) 13 (11.8%) and chest pain evaluation 10 (9.1%). Cardiomegaly (29.1%) followed by consolidation (9.1%) were commonest radiological finding. Two third patients had abnormal HRCT chest but only few had radiological findings either suspicious (6.4%) or indeterminate (11.8%) for COVID-19. Respiratoy symptoms, positive PCR for COVID-19 and severe Left ventricular dysfunctions were correlated with abnormal HRCT findings, correlation being statistically significant (p-value <0.05). Conclusion: HRCT chest is a non-invasive and highly sensitive imaging modality, which can rapidly help in identifying, and isolating suspected cases of novel corona virus as well as in diagnosing unknown pre-existing lung diseases in cardiac patients.

Abstract	Hashimoto Encephalopathy (HE) or Steroid-Responsive Encephalopathy associated with Autoimmune Thyroiditis (SREAT) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by encephalopathy and elevated anti-thyroid antibodies in the absence of a central nervous system (CNS) infection, tumour or stroke. Clinical presentation of HE includes amnestic syndrome, seizures including status epilepticus, ataxia, myoclonus and psychiatric manifestations like depression, mania, psychosis and hallucinations. A good clinical response can be achieved with corticosteroid therapy so early diagnosis and treatment is very beneficial for patients. Here we report fourpatients with Hashimoto encephalopathy who had neuro-psychiatric manifestations of the disease and had detectable thyroid specific antibodies in the serum (thyroperoxidase antibody formerly known as antimicrosomal antibody). All these patients showed an objectively significant response to methylprednisolone treatment.

Abstract	Objective: To study the frequency of In-Stent Restenosis and its treatment in patients undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for coronary artery disease. Study Design: Descriptive cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Cardiology, Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology & National Institute of Heart disease (AFIC/NIHD) Rawalpindi, from Jul 2017 to Jul 2019. Methodology: All the patients who underwent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Coronary Artery Disease at our institute were considered for this study. A consecutive sampling method was used and inclusion/exclusion criteria was applied. Following data was obtained; 1) Demographic information and clinical risk factors like history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, smoking, coronary artery disease characteristics (number of diseased arteries, bifurcation lesions, calcification, chronic total occlusions-CTO and tortuosity) 3), Stent factors (under expansion, fracture, longitudinal miss, stent gap). Data recording, storage, assessment and analysis was done by using SPSS software version 21. Results: Among 1332 cases, 50 had In-Stent Restenosis with overall prevalence of 3.75%. Mean age of the patients with In-Stent Restenosis was 58.76 (± 9.97), with 45 (90%) male and 5 (10%) female. Diabetes Mellitus was the commonest risk factor (22.9%) followed by Hypertension (18%). Sixty four percent of the patients (n=32) had Single Vessel Coronary Artery Disease, 14 (28%) had Double Vessel Coronary Artery Disease and 4 (8%) had Tripple Vessel Coronary Artery Disease. Left Anterior Descending was the commonest coronary artery that developed In-Stent Restenosis, followed by Right Coronary Artery and Left Circumflex respectively. Previously deployed stents which developed In-Stent Restenosis showed longitudinal geographical miss in 16%, stent under expansion in 6% and stent gap in 4%.

Abstract	A field experiment was carried out at Rice Research Station, Khudwani Anantnag (J&K) India during kharif 2008–2009 to study the efficacy of leaf extracts of some medicinal plants viz, P.communis, M. longifolia, C. officinalis, C. album, C. sativa and D. stramonium as seed treatment and foliar sprays against rice blast disease in-vivo. The experiment was laid down in (RBD) with three replications. The incidence and severity of blast disease was recorded at 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 days after sowing by using SES (0–9) scale. The results revealed that seeds of rice variety China −1007 treated with leaf extracts of Pyrus communis @ 250mlkg−1 seeds recorded lowest disease incidence (0.16%), least disease severity (0.10%) and only three days for the germination/sprouting of seeds, superior seedling vigour index (4.0) and remarkably significant increase in grain yield in both the conditions as compared to control followed by Calendula officinalis (incidence = 0.60% and severity = 0.20%) and Mentha longifolia (incidence = 0.65% and severity = 0.25%) with remarkable 4 days of seed germination/sprouting. Other plant leaves extracts were also found effective but to a lesser extent. The results also indicate that the three sprays of standard solution @ 15% of leaf extract of Pyrus communis greatly exterminated disease incidence suppression (3.43%) on tillering, (4.15%) on booting and (0.11%) on neck stages of the crop. Apart of treatments, low grain yield, maximum disease incidence on tillering (20.00%), booting (22.41%) and neck blast stages (2.21%) was observed in unsprayed plots.

Abstract	Objective: To determine the frequency of different causative bacteriological organisms and their antibiotic sensitivity from Endotracheal Aspirate (EA) of patients suffering from Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP). Study Design: Prospective cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Combined Military Hospital (CMH) Lahore, from May 2013 to Nov 2013. Material and Methods: A total of 180 cases of VAP, fulfilling the ınclusion criteria and admitted in the ICU, were included in the study using the non-probability consective sampling technique. A written informed consent was obtained from the family. All these patients underwent endotracheal aspirate for microscopy and culture. Antibiotic sensitivity was determined using standard antibiotics regimens. Results: Out of 180 patients, 165 (91.7%) were culture positive while 15 (8.3%) were culture negative. Gramnegative bacilli accounted for about 70% of all isolates. The most common organism isolated was Pseudomonas aeruginosa 25% (n=45) followed by MRSA 18.9% (n=34), Klebsiella 15.6% (n=28), Actinobacter spp 13.3% (n=24), E.coli 11.7% (n=21) and Citrobacter spp 4.4% (n=8). Carbapenem was the most sensitive drug that was seen in our setup but still 43.9% of the isolates showed resistance against it and resistance was noted still higher with Actinobacter spp, where 83% isolates were resistant. Quinolones showed resistance in 100% of the isolates of Actinobacter, MRSA and Citrobacter. While more than 50% strains of Pseudomonas, E.coli and Klebsiella were also resistant to quinolones. Cephalosporins showed excellent sensitivity towards gram negative bacteria which included Citrobacter (100% sensitive) and E.coli (80% sensitive). Polymxins showed more than 50% sensitivity to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Actinobacter, E. coli and Klebsiella. Conclusion: VAP remains a very important hospital-acquired infection. The most prevalent etiological organism in our study was Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the most effective antibiotics were carbapenems.
