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

History: Poisoning is one of the commonest mode of suicide. In India, the first case of Aluminium Phosphide Poisoning was reported in 1981 from MGM Medical College, Indore (M.P.) Since then Aluminium Phosphide Poisoning is on rise.
Objective: To assess the impact of time elapsed after ingestion of poison and reaching the hospital on mortalities in respect of age, gender and residence of the victim. Material and method: Sixty five cases of Aluminium Phosphide Poisoning of both sexes, 11 and above years of age and their residence area (rural and urban).
Observations and discussion: On analysis of the collected data, it has been revealed that 87.69 % cases were from 11 to 40 years of age group which is quite productive age group in all aspects, which is a matter of real concern as it shows that youth are very much frustrated from their life, which can be prevent by providing moral and ethical teaching during schooling. There were 43.07 % male and the remaining 56.92 % females, this is in accordance to the findings of various studies that more proportion of females fall victim of poisoning than their male counter parts.87.69 % deceased were from rural background Out of these only 07.01 % brought to hospital within one hour in comparison to their 37.5 % urban counter parts.
Conclusion and recommendations: This may be due to pathetic condition of roads, none or late availability of transport, their illiteracy and ignorance about health and disease including poisoning particularly in rural areas. This poor state of affairs may be changed by judicious use of old or traditional and new, modern or latest technologies and whenever chances arises can co-exist like never before, will be helpful in bringing awareness in the community about various aspects of health and disease including poisoning and there will be increase in the utilization of health facilities which at present under utilize. At present a vicious circle of poverty and illness and illness again will increase poverty and poverty further make the people ill and so on i.e. there is a direct relation between poor health and poverty is in existence, may be broken which is very much necessary to improve the health status of the community which automatically improve the economic status of the community.

History: Poisons are known since ancient times. References to poisons found in the oldest Egyptian, Babylonia, Hebrew, and Greek records. Atharva Veda (1500BC) also describes poisons.Objective: To assess the epidemiological profile of patients who ingested poison as per their age, gender, residence, occupation intention of ingestion of poison
Material and method: 291 cases of both sexes and 11 and above years of age group, who brought to tertiary care hospital after ingestion of poison, were taken as sample.
Variables: Age, sex, occupation, residence, intent of poisoning, Statistical analysis: expressed in terms of proportion and chi-square test.
Observations and discussion: There was higher proportion of poisoning cases in younger age group similarly higher proportion of female's ingested poison. Rural population irrespective of occupational status was at increased risk of poisoning this is due to easy availability of the compound and illiteracy and ignorance about the safe use of the compound. Commonest intent of poisoning was suicidal. Younger age people are standing on the square. It seems that there is lack of sportsmanship, hence if the condition is not going according to them, they take it their defeat and insult instead of facing the problem bravely, and take such extreme step of ingestion of poison. Regarding women, they are very sensitive by nature hence even a smallest incidence which goes against their pride they become sensible and take such extreme step.

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.

Background: Over all, India reported 418 accidental deaths a day in 2009 an increased by 7.3 % compared to 2008 as per National Crime Records Bureau's annual report of deaths and suicides across the country. Objective: To assesstime taken from accident to discharge from the hospital. Study Design: Cross sectional Setting: Indoor Orthopedic and ward of a tertiary hospital. Sample Size: Thirty patients of both sexes of the fracture of lower femur (supracondyler and intercondyler) admitted in a tertiary hospital. Statistical Analysis: Simple proportion. Findings: 36.66% of patients were operated on or before five days of accident, only 13.33% patients were operated after two weeks this may because of the associated injury or medical complications like diabetes and/or hypertension, 50% of the patients discharge from the hospital on or before seven days of the operation, only 6.7% patients took more than 35 days in their discharge. Conclusion: there is an urgent need to conduct Continuous Medical Education (C.M.E) all concerned on "rational use of drugs "to put a full stop on development of resistance against the drugs otherwise patients have to suffer a lot and the treatment will be beyond the reach of the most of the patients which ultimately harm all concerned irrespective of caste, creed, colour, religion, profession rich or poor.Keywords

Back Ground: Irrespective of age or gender ,however ,as waistlines grow, so do health risks. Central obesity-storing fat around the waist-raises risk of heart attacks and diabetes, with Indian at high risk because of their genetic predisposition to sport potbellies.Material and method: All participants were obese and of both sexes. The data were collected in a pre designed and pretested Performa.
Statistical analysis: were expressed in simple term of proportion.
Observations and discussion: As age advances more and more persons fall victim of obesity irrespective of gender except in 71+ years category. On gender wise analysis it was found that more diabetic males were obese in comparison to their females counter parts where more non diabetic females were found obese. On analysis as per diet, it has been observed that 87.09% persons consuming non-vegetarian in comparison to only 12.90% vegetarians in the present study. It has been observed that there were no alcoholic females in the sample cases, of the alcoholic males, 68.00% were obese. In the present study there were only three female smokers. Out of these three female smokers 33.33% were obese while in case of 47 male smokers, 61.70% were found obese.
