This paper deals with the detailed phytochemical evaluation of the stem of Eclipta alba (Bhringaraja) family: (Compositae). The preliminary phytochemical screening shows that different extracts of plant have different constituents like carbohydrate, alkaloids, phenolics, steroids, glycosides, fat and oils. TLC of the hexane extract after column extraction was shown Rf value 0.78 in Petroleum ether:Hexane:Chloroform:Methanol, used as mobile phase in 2:4:2:1 ratio and TLC of pet. Ether extract also shown Rf value is 0.72 in Petroleum ether:Hexane:Chloroform, used as mobile phase in 4:3:1 ratio after column extraction. This is evaluated by the instrumental analysis (UV, IR, and NMR) of hexane and pet. Ether extract. They shows consequently that pet. Ether extract contains alkane (2940 Cm-1, δ 0.827), alkene (1630 Cm-1, δ 1.253-1.351), monomer of aliphatic acid (1760 Cm-1 δ 2.169), aromatic amine (1570 Cm-1, δ 2.593) etc. and hexane extract contains alkane (2940 cm-1, δ 0.801-0.873) alkene (1625 Cm-1, δ 0.988-1.075) aldehyde (1740 Cm-1, δ 2.154 – 2.288) and aromatic alcohol (1110Cm-1, δ 5.324). These data suggests that the extracts (pet. ether and hexane) may have the glycoside, aliphatic acid, steroids, fats and oils. They are pharmacologically important.Keywords

Background:Fractures of the clavicle is one of the most common injures of human skeleton. It has been traditionally treated nonoperatively.Objectives: The present study was undertaken to evaluate the outcome of different types of plates in surgical management of middle one third clavicle fracture in adults.
Methods: Thirty two adult patients with middle one third clavicular fractures treated surgically between July2011 to May 2013 were included for this study. 22 middle third clavicle fractures were fixed with reconstruction plate and screws and six middle third clavicle fractures were fixed with semitubular plate and screws and 4 middle third clavicle fractures were fixed with dynamic compression plate and screws. The functional outcome compared.
Result: Among 32 patients with middle third clavicle fracture treated with plate and screws 30 fractures united at an average of 11.13 weeks.
Conclusion: Clavicle fractures are usually treated conservatively but there are specific indications for which operative treatment is needed like comminuted, displaced middle third clavicle fractures. In this study reconstruction plates were used as it can be contoured to the shape of the clavicle. Semitubular plates were used in 6 patients and it had no complications but it was difficult to contour. Dynamic compression plate is strong but it gives excessive prominence through the skin and it is difficult to contour.

To assess the frequency and to identify the predisposing factors for ocular surface disorders in ICU patients. Prospective observational study of all patients admitted to the ICU complex of SRMSIMS between1st January to 31st April 2016 for a minimum period of 5 days. Patients will be observed for abnormalities of the lid , conjunctiva, cornea and tear film by diffuse illumination aided by Schirmer's Test, corneal and conjunctival staining and conjunctival swab when required. Other factors like consciousness, use of a ventilator, preexisting comorbidities shall also be noted. Patients will be observed on Day1, 5, 6, and so on. 60 eyes of 30 patients were examined . In mechanically ventilated patients , 36 eyes (60%) had conjunctival hyperemia which resolved upon intervention which included antibiotics and lubricants . 18 eyes (9%) had conjunctival discharge which resolved upon intervention. 12 eyes (20%) were stain positive. The critically ill often develop ocular surface disorders, especially when sedated and immobilized. A close relationship was observed between these conditions and the inability to close one's eyes. The presence of ocular surface disease was closely correlated with the degree of lagophthalmos, which in turn was closely related to the depth of sedation or paralysis.Keywords

A strong demand of a separate time zone by northeast populace has been a matter of great debate for a very long period. However, no implementable solution to this genuine problem has yet been proposed. The CSIR-National Physical Laboratory, CSIR-NPL (the National Measurement Institute, NMI, o f India and custodian o f Indian Standard Time, IST) proposes an implementable solution that puts the country in two time zones: (i) IST-I (UTC + 5: 30 h, represented by longitude passing through 82 °33 E) covering the regions falling between longitude 68 °7 E and 89 °52 E and (ii) IST-II (UTC + 6: 30 h, represented by longitude passing through 97°30E) encompassing the regions between 89°52E and 97°25E. The proposed demarcation line between IST-I and IST-II, falling at longitude 89 °52 E, is derived from analyses o f synchronizing the circadian clocks to normal office hours (9: 00 a.m. to 5 : 30p.m.). This demarcation line passes through the border of West Bengal and Assam and has a narrow spatial extension, which makes it easier to implement from the railways point o f view. Once approved, the implementation would require establishment of a laboratory for ‘Primary Time Ensemble - I I ’ generating IST-II in any o f the north-eastern states, which would be equivalent to the existing ‘Primary Time Ensemble-I’ at CSIR-NPL, New Delhi.Keywords
