abstract = {Background: This study was conducted to know the common substances that caused deaths by ingestion, brought for autopsy to Osmania General Hospital, Hyderabad, Telangana State, India for a period three years. The cases of deaths due to poisoning were selected from the autopsies conducted and analyzed for the most commonly ingested substance.

Material and methods: The samples were collected for three consecutive years from January 2012 to December 2014.

The contents of the stomach were examined grossly and the samples were collected in three containers during autopsy

for each individual case. Portion of stomach and its contents, portions of liver, kidney, blood and body fluids were collected labeled and sent to the State Forensic Science Laboratory for analysis of unknown poison. The reports were analyzed. The data collected was arranged according to age, sex and substances detected.

Results: A total of 1196 cases of poisoning in three years were studied. Most of the deaths occurred, were due the ingestion of Organophosphates. It is the commonest insecticide used by farmers in fields. The common age group involved is between 21 years to 30 years ingesting organophosphates. In the deaths due to poisonings, men are predominantly involved compared to women.

Conclusion: In the study it was concluded that the ingestion of poisonous substance organophosphate is usually intentional and is used to commit suicide. In children it is mostly accidental. Poison can also be used as homicide to kill a

person.},

abstract = {Back ground: Finger print identification is undoubtedly the most reliable and acceptable evidence till

date in the court of law. Fingerprints can be used to identify an unknown victim, witness, or a suspect.

Therefore, an attempt has been made to study the association of fingerprint pattern with gender & blood group. Methodology: A cross sectional study was conducted among the medical students of MBBS of either gender. A total of 176 students were participated in study. Finger prints were taken on white paper and

blood group were also noted on same paper. Data were analyzed as frequency and chi square test. Results: Loops were the most common fingerprint pattern. B+ve and A+ve were common blood group. Association between loops with Blood group A+ve and of whorls and arched with B+ve was found to be statistically significant. Conclusion: Knowledge of finger pattern could help in the prediction of blood group in medico-legal investigations. },

abstract = {Background: Road traffic accidents ( RTA) is an important cause of death among young people in India. Cost of treatment or death of young people cause considerable economic losses to victims and their families.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to study the characteristics of injuries from road traffic accidents in Hyderabad, India. Methodology: A study was conducted from January 2016 to June 2016 in Owaisi Hospital of

Deccan College of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad. Data was collected on cases admitted due to RTA in Emergency Department of Owaisi Hospital. A total of 204 RTA cases were studied from the case records of the medical records section admitted during study period. The information collected consists of personal identification data, time, date, place, and type of injury, vehicles involved in RTA. Results: In this study 76.4% were males, common age group involved was of 20-39 years. Motorcyclists were 63% among population involved in RTA. Accidents were more on weekends. 70% of injuries were in both limbs. Conclusions: Most of the victims of road traffic accidents were young males and Motorcycle was common vehicle involved in accident.},

abstract = {An estimated 1.2 million scavengers in the country are involved in the sanitation of our surroundings. The

working conditions of these sanitary workers have remained virtually unchanged for over a century. Apart from

the social atrocities that these workers face, they are exposed to certain health problems by virtue of their

occupation. These health hazards include exposure to harmful gases such as methane and hydrogen sulfide,

cardiovascular degeneration, musculoskeletal disorders like osteoarthritic changes and intervertebral disc

herniation, infections like hepatitis, leptospirosis and helicobacter, skin problems, respiratory system problems

and altered pulmonary function parameters. This can be prevented through engineering, medical and legislative measures. While the engineering measures will help in protecting against exposures, the medical measures will help in early detection of the effects of these exposures. This can be partly achieved by developing an effective occupational health service for this group of workers. Also, regular awareness programs should be conducted to impart education regarding safer work procedures and use of personal protective devices. },

abstract = {Introduction: Organophosphorus poisoning is the most common medico toxic emergency in India. Respiratory failure is the most common complication of OP compound leading to death. Early recognition and prompt ventilation may improve survival. The aim of the study was to correlate between the clinical score described by Peradenya Organophosphorus Poisoning (POP) scale, serum pseudocholinesterase level at presentation, ventilator requirement and the outcome. Methods: Patients of OP poisoning attending Owaisi Hospital from Jan 2013 to Dec 2013 were studied. Sixty Four patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Fifty one of them required ventilator support. Twelve of them succumbed. None of the non ventilated patients died. Clinical scoring by Peradenya scoring and serum pseudocholinesterase level was measured in all patients. Results: The severity of poisoning as measured by POP scale directly correlated with serum cholinesterase level (P<0.001). There were 50% patients in moderate poisoning score and only 5% patients in severe poisoning. A total of 18% of the

patients died of which 85% belonged to moderate and severe group. POP scale directly correlated with death outcome (P<0.001). It was also seen that all the patients with pseudo cholinesterase level less than 50% of normal range were ventilated. Lower Pseudo cholinesterase level also directly correlated to death outcome (P<0.001). Conclusion: The POP scale and serum cholinesterase at presentation appeared useful to assess the severity of poisoning, particularly in terms of need for ventilator and prolonged duration of hospital stay. },
