Background: The association between type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Obesity is very close. Obesity is common in women aged between 45-49 yrs. Prevalence of Prediabetes i.e. Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG) also seems to be higher in women than men in Indian population. The present work was planned to explore the correlation if any between fasting blood glucose&obesity in postmenopausal women.
Objectives: To study the correlation if any; between fasting blood glucose levels&obesity status in postmenopausal women.
Materials&Method: Study group comprised of 106 asymptomatic postmenopausal women with no family history of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in the age group of 45-49 yrs. On the basis of Body Mass Index, they were divided in 3 groups viz. Normal, Preobese&Obese. Fasting Blood Glucose levels (FBG) were estimated in all the subjects&results were analyzed using ANOVA test.
Results&Conclusions: Mean FBG levels in preobese and obese group were found to be significantly higher than those in control group in our subjects. So, it can be said that obesity in postmenopausal women may act as an important predictor for type 2 D.M. Early lifestyle modifications may prove to be an important means of prevention of obesity&reduction in risk of subsequent type 2 D.M. in postmenopausal women.

The Atomic Minerals Division of the Department of Atomic Energy carried out Airborne Scintillometer surveys for uranium during the period 1957-62, in parts of Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Madras, Mysore, Orissa, Rajasthan and West Bengal, totalling more than 74,000 sq. miles, along some 78,775 line-miles in 1401 flying hours. A brief account of the survey operations reviewing the object and organisation of the airborne radiometry, details of the aircraft and equipment used, operational techniques adopted, principles and physical considerations involved in such surveys, basis of interpretation and evaluation of radioactivity anomalies obtained under different environments, results of the survey in various parts of India, utility and future prospects etc., have been given in the paper.- On the Carbonatite at Newania, Udaipur District, Rajasthan

A brief account of the geological setting, mineral assemblages, the trace and major element study by chemical and spectrographic investigations etc., of the carbonatic rocks occurring at Newania, Udaipur, Rajasthan, has been given in the paper. Field observations indicate the occurrence of a narrow fenitised zone comprising syenitic rocks, intruded by narrow dykes and veins of carbonatites, signifying development of alkalic character in the rocks, surrounding the main carbonatite body. Locally developed breccia zones and intrusive apatite, vermiculite and calcite veins are also noticed in the rocks. Both the field and laboratory data support the view that these rocks are a special kind of carbonate-rich rocks genetically related to the alkalic rock forming processes and of apparent magmatic origin.- Seismogeology of Kutch and Adjoining Region with Special Reference to 26th January 2001 Earthquake in the Vicinity of Bachau, Gujarat
