India is a country in transition and needs to simultaneously address preventable and treatable causes of childhood morbidities. Children require support in recognising eye problems and hence screening becomes essential. Moreover their issues need to be tackled at the earliest for treatment to be effective. The selected risk factors for ocular morbidity among school going children and the nutritional factors affecting ocular morbidity among school going children were studied.Keywords

Among the leading childhood morbidities in developing nations,after malnutrition, diarhheaetc childhood blindness and other ophthalmic morbidities causing visual impairment also hold a place. The major causes of blindness in children encompass intrauterine and acquired infectious diseases, teratogens and developmental and molecular genetics, nutritional factors, the consequences of preterm birth, and tumors. A multidisciplinary approach is therefore needed. To assess the pattern the ocular morbidity among school going children of an urban area in Kancheepuram district, Tamilnadu were studied.Keywords

A seizure is a temporary occurrence of signs and manifestations coming about because of strange over the top neuronal movement in the cerebrum. Roughly 30% of patients who have a first afebrile seizure later epilepsy(1).Febrile seizure are the most widely recognized type of seizures, it is 2 creases most regular in young men than in young ladies. The system of febrile seizure have multi factorial etiology, febrile seizure happens with fever (temperature<380C) and without side effects of CNS diseases. Anyway , now and again these seizure connote major basic fiery, or metabolic disarranges of the cerebrum, for example, meningitis, encephalitis, intense stroke, or mind tumor.
Objective: Febrile seizures are the most well-known sort of seizures saw in the pediatric age bunch looking at the examination among male and female of the kid with basic febrile seizure.
Aim: The point of the present forthcoming , case‐control study was to decide if there was any adjustments in serum zinc level in male and female kids with febrile spasm.
Method: Hundred youngsters matured a half year to 5 years were separated into two gatherings: bunch A, 50 male kids with febrile seizure, and gathering B, 50 female kids with febrile spasm.
Serum zinc levels for the two gatherings were assessed by nuclear ingestion spectrophotometry (AAS). The information were dissected to look at zinc level among the two gatherings utilizing suitable measurable instruments utilizing SPSS 13.
Findings: Serum zinc level in febrile seizure of boys children were 54% effected and girl children were 46% effected. Mean value in male children was 68.92 mcg/dl, and female children was 69.03 mcg/dl . Serum zinc level of group A & group are statistically not significant.
Conclusion: Among children with febrile convulsions 46% were females 54% were males. Male children are slightly higher than girls.

Objectives: The point of the examination is to assess transversus abdominis plane square for postoperative absence of pain in patients experiencing inguinal hernia fix medical procedure with the dose of 0.75 % Ropivacaine& to quantify the hour of first solicitation for salvage absence of pain.
Place of Study: Aneasthesia Department, SreeBalajiMedical College and hospital, Chromepet, Chennai. Period of Study: August 2016 to February 2018(18 months).
Study Design: Cross sectional analytical study.
Materials and Method: All patients who underwent unilateral inguinal hernioplasty surgery who were given 0.75% ropivacaine injection are included in the study, after explaining the nature of the study and obtaining informed consent for participating in the study. They are classified into different age group categories. P value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.
Results: The attempt to explore the efficacy of 0.75% ropivacaine in ultrasound guided - transversus abdominis plane block in patients undergoing unilateral inguinal hernioplasty under spinal anaesthesia found that the duration of analgesia was reasonable with the dosage of 0.75% ropivacaine. The vital parameters were well maintained among the patients throughout the study period. There were no complications like local anaesthetic toxicity noted among the patients and the drug was proved to be effective.
Conclusion: About 15 ml of 0.75 % ropivacaine for transverse abdominis plane block produces satisfactory and comparable sensory block, related to duration, analgesia and VAS score. The haemodynamics were stable in both the groups. The lower CNS and cardio toxicity of ropivacaine may help in reducing the risk to the patients. The clinical correlation in duration, dose of analgesia and VAS score among the patients, when injected in required volume for TAP block under ultrasound guidance. Ropivacaine has a potentially improved safety profile when compared to any other similar drug. Hence it may offer an advantage.

Objective: Febrile seizure is the most well-known issue in youth with great visualization. There are various speculations about synapses and follow component, (for example, zinc) changes in the serum, which can have a job in pathogenesis of febrile seizure.
Aim: The point of the present imminent investigative case‐control study was to decide if there was any adjustments in serum zinc level in kids with febrile spasm during seizure.
Methods: One Hundred youngsters matured a half year to 5 years were separated into two gatherings: bunch A, 50 kids with febrile seizure, and gathering B, 50 ordinary kids.
Serum zinc levels for the two gatherings were evaluated by nuclear assimilation spectrophotometry(AAS). The information were broke down to look at zinc level among the two gatherings utilizing suitable measurable instruments utilizing SPSS 13.
Findings: Serum zinc levels of groups A, and B had a mean value of 62.93 mg/l, 91.88 mg/l respectively. Serum zinc level of group A was lower than the other group (P<0.0001).
Conclusion: The serum zinc levels are diminished in youngsters with febrile seizure spasms, therefore demonstrating that zinc hardship assumes a noteworthy job in pathogenesis of febrile seizures.

Aim: The point of the present forthcoming , case‐control study was to decide if there was any adjustments in serum zinc level in youngsters with febrile spasm during seizure and febrile patients without seizures.
Methods: Kids matured a half year to 5 years were isolated into two gatherings: bunch A, 100 youngsters with febrile spasm, and gathering B, 100 febrile kids without seizures.
Serum zinc levels for the two gatherings were assessed by nuclear retention spectrophotometry(AAS). The information were examined to analyze zinc level among the two gatherings utilizing proper factual instruments utilizing SPSS 13.
Findings: Serum zinc levels of groups A, and B had a mean value of 64.92mg/l, 81.03 mg/l respectively. Serum zinc level of group A was lower than the other group (P<0.0001).
Conclusion: The serum zinc levels are diminished in kids with febrile seizure spasms, in this way demonstrating zinc hardship assumes a noteworthy job in pathogenesis of febrile spasms.
