Background : Poisoning is a serious emergency and a big problem that affects people of all ages all over the world. Education, demographics, socioeconomic conditions, customs, and local belief all influence the cause and kind of poisoning in different areas of the world and within the country. Poisoning patterns differ depending on age, the kind and amount of the poison, and the method of exposure. Even while there has been no major drop in the number of unintentional poisonings, the pattern of poisoning has changed, with new risks always emerging as a result of the introduction of novel pharmaceuticals and chemicals for home use and agricultural. Objective : To asses the clinical Profile and outcome of Poisoning among Pediatric Population in a tertiary care hospital. Materials and Methods : The present Prospective observational study conducted in Department of Pediatrics at Gadag Institute of Medical Sciences , between June 2020 to December 2021. All children and adolescent who were admitted to pediatric intensive care unit with history of poisoning were included in this study.
Background: One of the most prevalent dermatological disorders seen in everyday practise is psoriasis. There has been a lot of new study on it being considered a systemic disease, with experts believing that the dermatological indications are only a small portion of the picture. Psoriasis is linked to aberrant lipid profiles, elevated fasting blood glucose levels, increased waist circumference, and elevated blood pressures, all of which are symptoms of the metabolic syndrome. Objectives: To study the serum lipid Profile among Psoriasis patients attending out patient Department in a tertiary care hospital. Materials and Methods: The Present cross sectional study was conducted by the Department of Dermatology at Gadag Institute of Medical Sciences from January 2021 to December 2021. A total of 50 study subjects were enrolled for the purpose of the study. After obtaining informed consent, a detailed history including demographic data, drug history, personal history, family history, present and past medical history, emotional stress and exposure to Sexually transmitted diseases were taken. Results: The mean age of the study subjects was found to 39.21+15.3 years of age in the present study majority (80%) of them were males and 20% were females.
V esicoureteric reflux (VUR) is an important predisposing factor for urinary tract infection (UTI) and renal parenchymal scarring [1]. VUR describes retrograde flow of urine from urinary bladder into ureter and kidney. VUR is called primary when it is an isolated finding and referred to as secondary, when associated with other urological anomalies such as posterior urethral valve, renal agenesis, and multicystic dysplastic kidney [1].Accurate prevalence of VUR is not known as many are asymptomatic and diagnostic testing is performed only when clinically indicated. About 30-40% of children and 40-50% of neonates with UTI have VUR [2]. Of children with primary VUR, 30-50% may develop renal parenchymal scarring and risk of scarring is reported to be highest in young children [2]. About 5-10% of children with reflux nephropathy may progress to chronic kidney disease (CKD) in late childhood. Reflux nephropathy is also the most common cause of severe hypertension and CKD in childhood and adolescence [2]. The objectives were to study the clinical profile of children with primary VUR and to assess the relationship with grades of primary VUR and renal parenchymal scarring. MATERIALS AND METHODSThis was a hospital-based prospective observational study conducted over a period of 18 months, from December 2017 to June 2019. Fifty children between 1 month and 5 years of age,
