abstract = {Student led seminars as a pedagogical method is a type of active learning involving researching, organizing, reflection and presenting it in the most comprehensive way. In recent times with the encouragement of active learning, student led seminars has become a part of medical curriculum. The aim of this study was to explore perceptions of students and faculty towards it. The study was done in 1st year MBBS medical students and faculty members. Three seminars were conducted with 14 students in each seminar as presenters. Perceptions of presenters, student audience and faculty towards seminars were taken with a questionnaire with Likert scale with scoring from 12-60. All respondents agreed that seminars were more interesting, motivating, increase public speaking, remove stage fear and is a good way of learning. Student audience had low perception of seminars being helpful in self-directed learning, worth the effort and helpful in longer retention of knowledge which the student presenters perceived otherwise and the difference was statistically significant. All the respondents had low perception on seminars not being time consuming, does not require more effort and are better than lectures. The respondents have mostly a positive perception of student led seminars with Likert score of 51.9, 48 and 46.4 for seminar presenters, faculty and student audience respectively. The students and the faculty should be educated about the benefits of active learning like seminar presentations and encouraged to conduct and participate in seminar presentations as it facilitates in attainment of, in addition to knowledge, a complete professional development of the future doctor.},

abstract = {Background: Type-II DM is a major health problem globally; it affects mainly the cardio-vascular system, including the lipid profile, and also impairs hormone pathways like insulin and sex hormones in males, leading to impotency. Materials and Methods: 195 (one hundred ninety-five) type II DMs of different age groups were studied and compared with 190 normal (controlled) groups. The blood investigation included FBS and PP. Blood urea, serum creatinine, Hbs.A1C, lipid profile, urine albumin, creatinine ratio, and serum testosterone were estimated by chemiluminescence immune assay and HbA1c by HPLC. Results: The BMI, age, HBSA1C, and serum testosterone level were compared with the control group, and the p value was highly insignificant (p<0.001). Conclusion: It is confirmed that type II DM patients have lower serum testosterone levels. Diabetes mellitus affects the vascularity of vital organs and impairs the normal functions of tests, leading to male

sterility. The present study helps physicians or endocrinologists treat such patients efficiently.},

Nigella sativa (NS) is a medicinal plant increasingly used in practice for treating gastrointestinal diseases. The aim of the study was to evaluate the antiulcer potential of Nigella sativa oil in Albino rats. Material and methods: The study utilized two methods of gastric ulcer induction in Albino rats. The Aspirin-induced gastric ulcer method consisted of 3 groups, with 6 rats in each group, which received pre-treatment once a day orally for 5 days. Group-1 (Control) animals received distilled water. Group-2 (Standard) animals received the standard drug, Ranitidine. Group-3 (Expermintal) animals received the test drug – Nigella sativa oil. The forced swim induced acute gastric ulceration method consisted of 3 groups i.e., control, standard, and test group with 6 rats in each group. After 5 days of respective pre-treatment, the animals were subject to a forced swim test. On day 7, 4 hours after Aspirin ingestion, the animals were sacrificed by stunning. The stomachs of the sacrificed animals was dissected for ulcer scoring. Results: In the Aspirin-induced ulcer method, the percentage protection from ulcer formation was 47.5% in the Nigella sativa group and 52.9% in the standard group. The effect of Nigella sativa oil in comparison to control was statistically significant (p value=0.03). In the forced swim induced acute gastric ulceration method, the percentage protection offered by Nigella sativa oil was 73%, whereas it was 69.6% in the Ranitidine group, and the effect of Nigella sativa oil in comparison to the effect of control was statistically significant (p value=0.03). Conclusions: The study demonstrated that NS oil has significant anti-ulcer potential in rats, which is comparable to the standard drug.},

abstract = {Background: Antidiabetic drugs are many but all of them have adverse effects ranging from simple side effects to serious side effects like hypoglycemic coma. We need alternative drugs which will not only lower blood sugar level but have fewer side effects. One such daily use ingredient in our food is Nigella sativa (kalonji) which has many properties. Methods: This was an objective study in an experimental animal. We divided albino wistar rats into six groups each group with six rats. Diabetes was induced using drug streptozotocin. Three doses of Nigella sativa 0.5 ml, 1 ml, 1.5 ml orally per rat were used. Metformin (100 mg/kg body weight) was used as standard drug. Blood sugar was estimated using glucometer on day 0 (starting day of treatment), day 5, day 10, day 20, day 40. The effect of Nigella sativa was compared with metformin group using the Anova test. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS software version 20. Results: Nigella sativa (NS) produced significant hypoglycemic effect. NS in the dose of 0.5 ml, 1 ml and 1.5 ml produced significant reduction in blood glucose in comparison to day 0. Metformin also (100 mg/kg body weight) produced significant reduction in blood glucose on day 20 and day 40. Comparison of hypoglycemic effect of Nigella sativa is not significantly different on day 10 (1 ml) and day 20 (1.5 ml) in comparison to Metformin (100 mg/kg body weight). Histopathological examination showed that there was partial regeneration of beta islet cells of pancreas by 1.5 ml of Nigella sativa which were damaged due to streptozotocin treatment. Conclusions: Alternative method of treatment for diabetes is very much needed and the study shows the use of the spice (Nigella sativa) daily can lower the blood sugar levels and can serve as an alternative treatment of diabetes mellitus.},

Materials and Methods: Albino rats of either sex weighing between 150 grams to 200 grams were divided into five groups of six animals (30) i.e control(C), standard (S), Test-1 (T1), Test-2(T2) & Test-3 (T3). Different groups of rats had received dose calculated according to body weight. C group had received 5ml/kg of 2% gum Acacia suspension orally. Diclofenac suspension in 2% gum Acacia was given to the standard (S) group in the dose of 5mg/kilogram body weight, orally. T1 group had received 100mg/kg, T2 group had received 200mg/kg & T3 group had received 400mg/kg body weight, orally. After half an hour of drug administration, sub-plantar injection of Carrageenin was administered by a tuberculin syringe into the right hind paw of all rats. Right hind paw was marked by a marker pen, at the level of lateral malleolous and the paw was dipped into the mercury of the plethysmograph and paw volume was measured by mercury displacement method immediately, and after 1 hour, 2 hour, 3 hours of the sub-plantar injection of carrageenin. The difference of paw volume recorded at the beginning of the experiment and at the end of 1 hour, 2hour & 3 hour of carrageenin administration. Percentage inhibition of inflammation was calculated by formula % inhibition = Vc-Vt/Vc X 100. Result : Result will be recorded and results will be analyzed by appropriate statistical methods. Conclusion: The present study revealed that Punica granatum L peel extract show anti-

inflammatory activity in albino wistar rats. },

abstract = {Background: Approximately 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, making it one of the most common neurological diseases globally. There are currently more than 25 drugs in the market for the treatment of epilepsy, many of which have similar efficacy but differ in their tolerability profile. Besides unmatched beneficial potential of antiepileptic drugs, it is associated with many adverse reactions too. This study aims to identify the serious adverse reactions caused by prescribed antiepileptics, reported at the pharmacovigilance centre of government tertiary care centre. Methods: This is a retrospective, pharmacovigilance study of the antiepileptic drugs adverse reactions reported over a period of 1 year at a tertiary care centre. Results: A total of 120 ADRs of antiepileptic drugs were reported and collected at the pharmacovigilance centre. According to the WHO-ART system organ classification of ADRs, 78% of ADRs belonged to skin and appendages disorder. Based on the modified Hartwig and Siegel scale of severity, 60.8% ADRs were mild, 18.5% were moderate and 20.8 % were severe ADRs. The severe ADRs included: Steven-Johnson syndrome, Toxic epidermal necrolysis, Erythroderma, DRESS syndrome and Acute pancreatitis. Phenytoin has been found to be the antiepileptic drug causing the most number of severe ADRs amongst the prescribed antiepileptics. According to the modified Schumock and Thornton criteria most of the severe ADRs were not preventable. Conclusions: This study analyses the ADRs associated with antiepileptics reported at the pharmacovigilance centre. 20.8% ADRS were severe, this indicates that the epileptic patients should be closely monitored for ADRs, to avoid clinically significant harmful consequences. The awareness of ADRs would help physicians to identify patients with greater risk of ADRs and therefore, might benefit from ADRs monitoring and reporting programmes.},

abstract = {Introduction: Medical education is acquiring knowledge and skills for ensuring the quality of health protection .Qualitative and quantitative studies of collaborative learning in medicine have shown higher levels of learner satisfaction, self awareness, improvement in knowledge and understanding of concepts. E-learning when combined effectively with quality professional teaching may achieve the goal of complete education. Methodology: A Prospective, cross-sectional, structured questionnaire based study was conducted among 300 medical students in a medical college. Result: A questionnaire study was conducted among the students of medical sciences. 76% students had access to internet.70% use internet for e-learning. 68% find e-learning helpful.56% watch educational videos, 42% refer to online books, 74 % are Wikipedia users. 62 % find online teaching session interesting.68% find e-leaning better then didactic teaching. 66% preferred e-learning in combination with classroom lectures where as 20 % preferred classroom lectures and 14 % preferred e-learning

alone. 78% want e-learning to be applied in education. Conclusion: E-learning and technology are creating the groundwork for a revolution in education. E-learning therefore should be incorporated and explored further in the medical education system of India. },

abstract = {Background: Without the knowledge on how drugs are being prescribed and used, it is difficult to initiate a discussion on rational drug use and to suggest measures to change prescribing habits for the better information on  the past performance of prescribers is linchpin of any auditing system. The objective of the study was to assess  the NSAIDs prescription pattern in patients with MS pain. Methods:Prospective study of prescriptions of 306 patients  with MS pain presenting in orthopedic outpatient department (OPD) of Owaisi Health and Research Centre during the period of January 2014 to August 2015. Patient particulars, history and clinical findings were obtained using the   study proforma. Data collected was analyzed by frequency, and percentage. Results:Overall frequency of NSAIDs prescription in this study was 96%. Diclofenac (70.7%) was the commonest NSAID prescribed. Selective COX-2 inhibitors were not prescribed. Combination of paracetamol and tramadol (77%) was the commonest FDC prescribed among  the 92 FDC prescriptions. High frequency of GPAs co-prescription (94%) was noted. Of 7 different NSAIDs prescribed, 2 drug (diclofenac, and paracetamol) falls within DU90% segment-mainly constituted by non-selective NSAIDs. Conclusions:Overall, the prescription pattern was in accordance with standard guidelines, as suggested by the fact  that the DU90%, segment was constituted by only few drugs.},
