Abstract
SETTING In-patient hospitals in South Africa and Uganda. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of a lateral-flow urine lipoarabinomannan (LAM) test when added to existing strategies for tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis in human immunodeficiency virus infected adults (CD4(+) T-cell counts < 100 cells/l) with symptoms of active TB. DESIGN Decision-analytic cost-utility model, with the primary outcome being the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio, expressed in 2010 US dollars per disability-adjusted life year (DALY) averted from the perspective of a public sector TB control program. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION For every 1000 patients tested, adding lateral-flow urine LAM generated 80 incremental appropriate anti-tuberculosis treatments and averted 224 DALYs. Estimated cost utility was US$353 per DALY averted (95% uncertainty range $192$1161) in South Africa and $86 per DALY averted (95% uncertainty range $49$239) in Uganda, reflecting the lower treatment costs in Uganda. Cost utility was most sensitive to assay specificity, cost of anti-tuberculosis treatment, life expectancy after TB cure and cohort TB prevalence, but did not rise above $1500 per DALY averted in South Africa under any one-way sensitivity analysis. The probability of acceptability was >99.8% at a per-DALY willingness-to-pay threshold equal to the per capita gross domestic product in South Africa ($7275) and Uganda ($509).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to understand and investigate the relationship between experimental factors and their responses in the preparation of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride based solid lipid nanoparticles. A quadratic relationship was studied by developing central composite rotatable design. Amount of lipid and drug, stirring speed and stirring time were selected as experimental factors while particle size, zeta potential and drug entrapment were used as responses. Prior to the experimental design, a qualitative prescreening study was performed to check the effect of various solid lipids and their combinations. Results showed that changing the amount of lipid, stirring speed and stirring time had a noticeable influence on the entrapment efficiencies and particle size of the prepared solid lipid nanoparticles. The particle size of a solid lipid nanoparticle was in the range of 159-246 nm and drug encapsulation efficiencies were marginally improved by choosing a binary mixture of physically incompatible solid lipids. Release of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride from solid lipid nanoparticle was considerably slow, and it shows Higuchi matrix model as the best fitted model. Study of solid lipid nanoparticle suggested that the lipid based carrier system could potentially be exploited as a delivery system with improved drug entrapment efficiency and controlled drug release for water soluble actives.

Abstract
Dengue Fever (DF) is only rarely considered as a cause of acute liver failure even globally and only a few case reports of acute hepatic failure and encephalopathy occurring in DF in adults are available. We report a case of Acute Liver Failure due to Dengue during a major outbreak in 2010 in Chitwan. A 20 year old previously healthy female presented to the emergency department of Chitwan Medical College with fever, jaundice and altered sensorium. She was tested positive for Dengue IgM. Her biochemical and clinical parameters were suggestive of acute liver failure with total billirubin of 10.1 mg/dL, direct billirubin of 5.2 mg/dL, ALT 5760 IU, AST 14100 IU, alkaline phosphatase of 1250 IU, PT INR of 1.76 and platelet count of 30,000/mm3. Other causes for acute hepatic failure like acute viral hepatitis, leptospirosis, malaria, Reyes syndrome were ruled out. The patient was admitted and managed in the ICU with supportive care and platelet transfusion. With treatment she made a significant clinical and biochemical improvement with AST of 105 IU, ALT of 120 IU and platelet count of 150,000/mm3. She was discharged after 11 days of hospital stay.

Abstract
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of cellular and body energy homeostasis. We previously demonstrated that AMPK activation in osteoblasts increases in vitro bone formation while deletion of the Ampkα1 (Prkaa1) subunit, the dominant catalytic subunit expressed in bone, leads to decreased bone mass in vivo. To investigate the cause of low bone mass in the Ampkα1(-/-) mice, we analysed bone formation and resorption in the tibia of these mice by dynamic histomorphometry and determined whether bone turnover can be stimulated in the absence of the Ampkα1 subunit. We subjected 12-week-old Ampkα1(+)(/)(+) and Ampkα1(-/-) mice to ovariectomy (OVX), intermittent PTH (iPTH) administration (80 μg/kg per day, 5 days/week) or both OVX and iPTH hormonal challenges. Tibiae were harvested from these mice and bone micro-architecture was determined by micro-computed tomography. We show for the first time that Ampkα1(-/-) mice have a high bone turnover at the basal level in favour of bone resorption. While both Ampkα1(+)(/)(+) and Ampkα1(-/-) mice lost bone mass after OVX, the bone loss in Ampkα1(-/-) mice was lower compared with controls. iPTH increased trabecular and cortical bone indexes in both ovariectomised Ampkα1(+)(/)(+) and Ampkα1(-/-) mice. However, ovariectomised Ampkα1(-/-) mice showed a smaller increase in bone parameters in response to iPTH compared with Ampkα1(+)(/)(+) mice. By contrast, non-ovariectomised Ampkα1(-/-) mice responded better to iPTH treatment than non-ovariectomised Ampkα1(+)(/)(+) mice. Overall, these data demonstrate that Ampkα1(-/-) mice are less affected by changes in bone turnover induced by OVX but respond better to the anabolic challenge induced by iPTH. These results suggest that AMPKα1 activation may play a role in the hormonal regulation of bone remodelling.

Abstract
AIMS To assess the medium to long-term efficacy and safety of intravitreal ranibizumab for the treatment of choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) secondary to angioid streaks (AS). METHODS A total of 12 eyes of nine patients treated with intravitreal ranibizumab (0.5 mg in 0.05 ml) for CNV secondary to AS were retrospectively identified. Efficacy of treatment was determined by changes in best-corrected LogMAR visual acuity (BCVA) and optical coherence tomography. Changes with respect to baseline BCVA were defined as improved or reduced with a gain or loss of more than 10 letters, respectively, or stable if remaining within 10 letters. RESULTS Over a mean follow-up of 21.75 months (range: 1-54), patients received mean 5.75 (range: 2-15) intravitreal ranibizumab injections per affected eye. BCVA improved in three eyes (25%), stabilised in eight eyes (66.67%), and deteriorated in one eye (8.33%). There was no significant change in central retinal thickness (CRT) over the follow-up period (P=0.1072). No drug-related systemic side effects were recorded. CONCLUSION The long-term treatment of CNV secondary to AS with intravitreal ranibizumab showed a stabilisation in CRT and an improvement or stabilisation of BCVA. The absence of systemic side effects was reassuring. Further long-term prospective studies are required to validate these findings.
