381. In control group 30% patients developed wound infection while 12% patients developed wound infection in experimental group with a P value of 0.027. Mean hospital stay of experimental group was less than the control group (P value less than 0.05). Overall postoperative outcome in context of wound infection and hospital stay is better following pressurized normal saline irrigation of subcutaneous tissue during closure.Variety of conditions may be responsible for low back pain but lumber spinal canal stenosis is an important cause of low back pain. Lumber spinal canal stenosis usually presents with low backache with neurogenic claudication and shortness of walking distance in adult patient. Surgical management of lumbar spinal canal stenosis by decompression surgery is effective method. This prospective interventional study was performed in patient with clinical features like low back pain with radicular pain, neurogenic claudication, signs of root compression, positive MRI findings attending in department of Orthopaedic Surgery Mymensingh Medical College Hospital and Private Hospital from July 2016 to June 2019. Thirty patients were evaluated among those 20(66.6%) were 50 years and above. The mean age was 47.5±1.6 years. Male to female ratio was roughly 81. Almost all of the patients had low backache with radiation to the back of the thigh and leg with motor weakness (60%). About 66.6% of the patients had sensory deficit aignificantly from 54.5% at baseline to 22% at the end of 1 year (p less then 0.001).Acute occlusive thrombosis of the coronary artery is the principal cause of myocardial infarction where platelets play an important role. Large size platelets, easily measured by mean platelets volume (MPV) are thrombogenic and commonly seen after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). ST segment resolution has been shown as a simple non-invasive marker that reflects both epicardial and myocardial reperfusion following thrombolysis. The present study intended to investigate whether MPV on admission correlated with ST segment resolution following thrombolysis in STEMI patient. This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted in the department of cardiology, Mymensingh Medical College and Hospital (MMCH), Mymensingh, Bangladesh from December, 2016 to June, 2018. Total 284 patients with first attack of STEMI were included after considering inclusion and exclusion criteria. Sample population was divided into two groups, Group I - Patients with successful ST segment resolution (≥50%). Group II - Patients with impaired ST segment resolution ( less then 50%). MPV on admission was estimated during estimation of Complete Blood Count (CBC) by Automated Haematology Analyzer & compared between two groups. Successful ST segment resolution (≥50%) was seen in 67% of patients after thrombolysis. Admission MPV was higher in patients with impaired ST segment resolution ( less then 50%) group than patients with ≥50% ST-segment resolution group (12.42±0.89fl vs.10.35±0.77fl respectively, p=0.001). Statistically significant strong negative correlation between MPV and ST segment resolution percentage (r = -0.742, p=0.001) suggesting that the higher the level of MPV, the lower the ST segment resolution percentage in first attack of STEMI patients. Multivariate regression analysis found MPV level on admission as an independent predictor of ST segment resolution. The study concluded that high MPV on admission correlate with impaired ST segment resolution following thrombolysis in STEMI patients.Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a notorious infection in developing countries causing serious local damage and threatening complications. It was a cross sectional observational study to isolate and identify aerobic bacteria and to analyze the susceptibility pattern of the aerobic bacterial isolates. It was carried out from March 2017 to July 2018 in the department of Microbiology, Mymensingh Medical College, Mymensingh, Bangladesh. Samples were collected from Outpatient of ENT department, MMCH. Out of a total 300 patients with CSOM were enrolled in this study and 209 were culture positive. selleckchem Among them gram negative organisms were 129(61.72%) and gram positive organisms were 70(33.49%). The most frequently isolated organism in this study was Pseudomonas aeruginosa 72(34.44%), gram positive organisms S. aureus 63(30.14%), E. coli 21(10.04%), other Pseudomonas spp (other than P. aeruginosa) 15(7.17%), mixed bacterial infectios 10(4.78%), Proteus spp 9(4.30%), CoNS 7(3.34%), Klebsiela lspp 7(3.34%), Acinetobactor spp 5(2.39%). P. aeruginosa isolates had least resistant to imipenem and colistin, S. aureus were showed high sensitivity to Vancomycin and Linezolid and E. coli were sensitive to imipenem and amikacin, ciprofloxacin and amikacin respectively. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the most common bacteria isolated from chronic discharging ears followed by Staphylococcus aureus. Piperacillin-Tazobactum, Ciprofioxacin, Gentamicin and Amikacin were found to be the most suitable drug for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, S. aureus and E. coli. The resistance against ceftriaxone and aztreonam was found to be very high.Due to high genetic susceptibility and rapidly urbanizing lifestyle, the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is rapidly increasing in Bangladesh especially in the younger population. This cross-sectional study was conducted from 14 to 25 November 2019 among the undergraduate students of a government medical college of Bangladesh to find out the frequency of dysglycemia and associated risk factors in them. A total of 364 students were included in the study. Relevant medical history was taken; clinical examinations and anthropometric measurements were done. Capillary blood glucose (CBG) was measured in fasting state. Out of 364 participants, 7(1.92%) had DM and 26(7.14%) were pre-diabetic. Two-fifth (19.5%) was hypertensive or pre-hypertensive. Almost half of them were either overweight (36%) or obese (13.5%) and 39% had abdominal obesity. Subjects with dysglycemia and normoglycemia did not differ in age, gender, smoking status, diastolic blood pressure (BP), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and presence of abdominal obesity and other diseases.
