On fundoscopy it was noted that 05.26 % and 08.33 % males and females respectively suffering from IHD with Diabetes were having hypertensive retinopathy in comparison to only 05.7% males and nil percentage of females suffering from IHD without Diabetes. Regarding hard exudates /microneurysm was observed in 07.89 and 08.33 percent males and females respectively of IHD without Diabetes in comparison to none of the patients of IHD with Diabetes. up Cataract /media hazy, on fundoscopy was observed only amongst 05.26 % IHD with Diabetics. Similarly, Tessellation was noted in 02.85 %males belong to IHD without Diabetes while none of the patient found in IHD with Diabetes. Almost equal proportion of patients belong to both group (IHD with Diabetes and IHD with Diabetes).It was further noted that as age advances proportion of tessellation goes except in 71 + years of age group patients.Keywords

Back Ground :Countless actors have hammed death by clutching their heart in imagined pain before collapsing ,yet this Bollywood over kill has had no effect on most Indians, who remain oblivious to the threat of cardiovascular disease (heart attack and stroke) till it comes knocking on their doors.Material and method: The study is retrospective in nature and was conducted in a tertiary care hospital. The data was collected in a pre drawn and pre tested proforma between May 2003 and May 2004.
Variables: Age, gender, Nature of diet, Obesity, Family history, Smoking, Alcoholism etc. Observations and Discussion: More than fifty percent patients were either normotensive or in pre hypertensive stage.18 % and 29 % were in hypertension stage-I, II and III. There were only five patients who gave history of hypertension running in their families.45 % were hypertensive obese out of these 67.85 % were suffering from Diabetes. 52.72 % smokers were found hypertensive.
Conclusion and Recommendations: Modifiable factors played an important role in causing hypertension along with some biological factors like obesity, diabetes etc. The impact of these factors can be minimized by changing their life style like spend at least 30 minutes in exercise every day, reduce their body weight etc.

Back Ground: Social factors have a far reaching impact on health and disease of the community and its members. Matters like nutrition, child rearing and bearing practices, personal hygiene, seeking timely medical aid, utilization of govt. health facilities, gender bias, standard of sanitation etc. are some of the examples where their influence can be easily seen or felt.
Objective: What are various social determents which have an impact on the health of community?
Participants: Adult residents of both sexes belonging to all religion of an urban slum.
Variables: Lack of awareness, Religion, Nutrition, Tradition and culture, Lack of motivation, Obstacles and Miscellaneous.
Material and Methods: In this study, a broad approach "situational analysis" of operational research was used by interviewing the sampled population. The most appropriate answer was considered for interpretation of results.
Observations and Discussions: Non scientific ,undesirable ,age old ,deep ischolar_mained ,traditions believes and culture because of lack of awareness were found responsible for this sorry state of affairs of health of the community. For combating the unearthed reasons there is an urgent need to bring about change in knowledge, attitude and practices of the people through applying the technique of de-education and re-education. For this, a wise use of media mix i.e. modern and traditional media will yield positive results. Educating women is a tested solution for the treatment of all the ills of society, hence no stone left unturned to achieve this noble task of educating the women

Back ground: Cancer accounted for 5 lakh death in India alone in 2005 .More than two thirds of all cancer deaths occur in low and middle income countries.
Objective: To assess the techniques of fine needle aspiration cytology and Imprint cytodiagnosis in thyroid cancers.
Study designs: four patients of thyroid lumps, attending O.P.D. of Hamidia, hospital, Bhopal were selected for the study. Convenient sampling was done .Patient’s detailed history, routine and special investigations as per need were carried out.
Statistical analysis: The analysis of data was done with the help of manual tabulation and for calculation of percentages.
Results: FNAC-The accuracy rate was 75 percent while in imprint cytodiagnosis an 100 percent accuracy rate was noticed.
Conclusion: The authors reached to the conclusion that F.N.A.C. save time, resources and patient anxiety. Admission for operation can be properly timed and the chances of missing thyroid cancers are much reduced. As there is paucity of data of imprint cytodiagnosis and in the present study too the sample was small so more study is to be done for getting comprehensive picture of the disease.
