Introduction: One of the greatest ways to identify a person is through their unique fingerprint pattern. They were already in place during the fetal stage and will never alter course or alignment over an individual's lifetime. The ABO and Rh blood types are being explored for the present inquiry, among other patterns of blood grouping. This study included a theoretical effort to link fingerprint patterns to gender and blood grouping. Objectives: It is necessary to examine the fingerprint patterns of people who have certain ABO and Rh blood types to discover Finding any correlation between ABO and Rh blood classes and finger-print patterns Materials and Methods: This study, conducted at the Peoples University of Medical and Health Sciences for Women Shaheed Benazir Abad, Sindh Pakistan, featured around 200 MBBS and BDS students with various blood types. Loops, whorls, and arches were the three types of fingerprints that were got from all the fingers. Results: Following the 'whorling' and 'arches' patterns, the 'loop' pattern was the most common. People with an 'O positive' blood type had the highest number of 'loop' varieties. Conclusion: It was shown that fingerprint morphology and blood type were linked in an existing investigation. Several interesting correlations between blood type distribution patterns and the distribution of human fingerprints were discovered.

Objectives: To evaluate serum vitamin D3, Blood Eosinophils, AbsoluteEosinophils Counts and IgE in the upper respiratory tract allergies (URTA) in Rural PopulationSindh. Study Design: Case control study. Place and Duration: Department of Medicine andBiochemistry, Isra University from January 2014 to October 2015. Subjects & Methods: Asample of 50 diagnosed cases of URTA and 50 age and gender matched control subjects wereselected through non-probability sampling. Blood samples were centrifuged to separate sera.Serum vitamin D3, Blood Eosinophils, Absolute Eosinophils and serum IgE were estimated.Data was analyzed on the SPSS 22.0 software at 95% confidence interval (P≤0.05). Results:Vitamin D3 showed significant decrease in allergic subjects; noted as 26.96±9.75 ng/dlcompared to 32.62±11.75 ng/dl in controls. Blood Eosinophils (%) were raised in the allergicsubjects compared to controls 3.42±1.91 and 1.93±0.65 respectively (p=0.0001). AbsoluteEosinophils counts (AEC) were significantly raised in the allergic cases as shown in Table-I(p=0.0001). Serum IgE in controls and cases was noted as 86.7±17.39 and 400.26±232.8IU/ml respectively (p=0.0001). Conclusion: The present study reports vitamin D3 deficiencyassociated with raised Eosinophils, Absolute Eosinophils counts and serum IgE in upperrespiratory tract allergy.

Objectives: Analyzing the efficacy of ascorbic acid (AA) against azathioprine(AZA) induced liver injury in rabbit model. Study design: Experimental study. Place andDuration: Isra University in collaboration with the animal house of Sindh Agriculture University;Tando Jam from July 2010 to November 2011. Materials and Methods: A sample of 80 rabbitswas divided into; Group A – control rabbits, and Experimental group B - (AZA 15 mg/kg), groupC- (AZA 15 mg/kg + AA 100 mg/kg) and group D- (AZA 15 mg/kg + AA 200 mg/kg). Bloodsamples were taken and sera were used for liver function test. Liver tissue sections 5μ thickwere stained for light microscopy examination. Data was analyzed on statistical software (SPSS21.0, IBM Incorporation, USA) (P≤ 0.05). Results: Azathioprine induces severe liver injury(group B vs. group A) that was ameliorated by the ascorbic acid in group C and D (p=0.0001).Microscopy showed hepatocyte necrosis, cholestasis, sinusoidal dilatation, peri-sinusoidalfibrosis, veno-occlusive disease, peliosis hepatis and loss of tissue array in azathioprine treatedrabbits. Conclusion: Azathioprine causes severe liver injury that was ameliorated by theascorbic acid in present experimental study.
