Abstract
The presence of conduction defects complicating acute myocardial infarction (MI) is relatively frequent and is associated with increased short and long term mortality. Thrombolytic therapy has been established to reduce the mortality in acute MI, however its role in reducing the incidence of conduction defects is less clearly defined. Morbidity and mortality associated with conduction defects also remain unchanged. This study was aimed to assess the correlation between conduction defects and adverse in-hospital outcome of patients with acute ST segment elevation MI. This cross sectional descriptive type of observational study was conducted among 100 purposively selected patients with acute ST segment elevation MI in the coronary care unit (CCU) of Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Bangladesh from June 2012 to March 2013. The patients were divided into two groups depending on the presence or absence of conduction defects namely Group A- 40 patients with conduction defects and Group B- 60 patients without conduction defects. Highest number of the patients (36.0%) was in the age group of 45-55 years. In case of inferior MI, age groups 45-55 years and 55-65 years had equal number of patients (30.4%). Only 2.0% patients were in age group of 75-85 years and this group had only inferior MI. Total number of female patients were 16(16.0%). Female patients had more inferior MI (17.4%) than anterior MI (15.9%). Number of MI patients was slightly more in inferior MI (46.0%) than anterior MI (44.0%). Group B had equal number of patients in both anterior and inferior MI. Conduction defects were more common in inferior MI (43.5%) than anterior MI (40.9%). Atrio-ventricular conduction defects were more common in inferior MI whereas intra-ventricular conduction defects were more common in anterior MI. Complete heart block (CHB) was more prevalent in inferior MI. Complications were more common in Group A (65.0%) than Group B (18.3%). In terms of complications the difference between two groups were significant (p<0.001). Group A showed higher rate of mortality (20.0%) than Group B (3.3%). In cases of anterior MI difference in mortality between Group A and Group B was highly significant (p<0.001). Conduction defects in the setting of acute MI are a common finding. Atrio-ventricular conduction defects occur more frequently in inferior MI whereas intra-ventricular conduction defects were more frequently encountered in anterior MI. Patients with conduction defects had more complications than those without conduction defects. Presence of conduction defects significantly increases the mortality of patients with anterior MI.

Abstract
Patients with Diabetes Mellitus are at high risk of cardiovascular events because of abnormal lipid metabolism. Dyslipidemia is common in patients with Diabetes Mellitus (DM). However; in Bangladesh this issue is not yet properly addressed. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence and patterns of dyslipidaemia in patients with DM in a divisional city Mymensingh. This cross-sectional study was conducted in randomly selected eligible patients from the indoor registry of the Department of Cardiology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital (MMCH), Bangladesh from April 2012 to March 2013. A well structured questionnaire and blood investigation for lipid profile and blood sugar were the tools of data collection from 120 randomly selected DM patients registered in the department of cardiology, MMCH. Out of 120 enrolled participants the prevalence of dyslipidemia in DM patients was 86.0%, prevalence of dyslipidemia in males was 88.0% while in females was 85.0% but the difference was not significant (p=0.42). Regarding age group, BMI and duration of DM, there is no significant association exists with dyslipidemia. About half of the studied DM patients have high serum total cholesterol level (50.83%), while 22.5% had low serum HDL-C levels and 35.0% had high serum LDC-C level, most of patients had serum triglyceride levels above normal range (67.5%) and so the common patterns of dyslipidemia in this study were serum triglyceride level followed by total cholesterol. High prevalence of dyslipidemia among diabetes mellitus in Mymensingh city were observed and so the common patterns of dyslipidemia is triglyceride followed by total cholesterol. This study emphasizes the importance of screening of lipid profile as these abnormalities may lead to development of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients constitute a large proportion of admissions in coronary care unit and their management and risk stratification is of immense importance. A decrease in serum albumin concentration might be associated with an increased risk in the incident of both cardiovascular diseases and worse hospital outcome. We assessed whether serum albumin levels at admission was associated with in-hospital adverse outcome in patients with first attack of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The aim of the study was to evaluate association of serum albumin level with in-hospital outcome in patients with first attack of acute myocardial infarction. This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted in the department of cardiology in Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, Bangladesh from March 2017 to February 2018. Total 374 patients of first attack of acute myocardial infarction included considering inclusion and exclusion criteria. The sample population was divided into two groups: Group I (Patients with acute myocardial infarction with serum albumin <3.5gm/dl) and. Group II (Patients with acute myocardial infarction with serum albumin ≥3.5gm/dl). Serum albumin level was measured within 24 hours of admission and the incidence of in-hospital major cardiac outcomes was observed. In this study mean±SD serum albumin level of Group I, Group II were 3.02±0.12gm/dl, 4.48±0.50gm/dl respectively. In Group I patient, 52(59.80%), 7(8.00%), 10(11.50%), developed heart failure, cardiogenic shock, arrhythmias respectively and 8(9.20%) died and in Group II patient 20(7.90%), 7(2.80%), 8(3.20%) developed heart failure, cardiogenic shock, arrhythmias respectively and 4(1.60%) died out of them and all of these outcome were statistically significant. Mean±SD duration of hospital stay of the study population according serum albumin level, in Group I, 5.76±1.83 days, in Group II, 4.40±1.22 days which was statistically significant (p<0.05). In conclusion, patient with first attack of acute myocardial infarction serum albumin level below 3.50gm/dl increased the risk of worse in-hospital outcome.

Abstract
The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Bangladesh is increasing. Chronic kidney disease refers to an irreversible deterioration in renal function which classically develops over a period of years. Initially, it manifest's only as a biochemical abnormality. Eventually loss of excretory, metabolic and endocrine functions of the kidneys leads to clinical symptoms and signs of renal failure, which are referred to as uraemia. In our country the number of CKD patient is increasing day by day, probably due to having uncontrolled DM, GN(Glumerulonephritis), uncontrolled hypertension, interstitial nephritis in addition to indiscriminate drugs & using of chemicals in fruits and foods. Objective of the study was to find out the morphological pattern of anaemia in patient with chronic kidney disease. This was a cross sectional observational study. This study was carried out at the Department of Medicine, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, Bangladesh from January 2011 to June 2011. Patients admitted in medicine ward male or female who satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study were taken as study subjects. The socio demographic characteristics, presenting symptoms, risk factors, investigations and findings of diagnostic modalities and outcome were recorded. Mean age was 55.8 years of the patients who were included in this study, youngest patient is of 19 years old & older one is of 85 years. In this study 33 patients were male & 17 patients were female. Thirty three (33) patients were suffering from normocytic normochromic anaemia, 11 were suffering from microcytic hypochromic anaemia & rest 6 were suffering from combined deficiency. Female patient were suffering mainly from microcytic hypochromic anaemia (58.8%) & male patient suffered from normocytic normochromic anaemia (69.7%). CKD patients also suffered from microcytic hypochromic anaemia & also from combined deficiency.

Abstract
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the most common cause of heart disease and is the single most important cause of premature death in developed world. Recognizing a patient with ACS is important because the diagnosis triggers both triage and management. cTnI is 100% tissue-specific for the myocardium and it has been shown to be a very sensitive and specific marker for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Ventricular function is the best predictor of death after an acute coronary syndrome. It serves as a marker of myocardial damage, provides information on systolic function as well as diagnosis and prognosis. The study aimed at investigating the impact of elevated Troponin-I level on LV ejection fraction and in-hospital outcomes in patients with first attack of Non ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI). This prospective analytical study was conducted in the Department of Cardiology in Mymensingh Medical College Hospital from December 2015 to November 2016. Total 130 first attack of NSTEMI patients were included considering inclusion and exclusion criteria. The sample population was divided into two groups: Group I - Patients with first attack of NSTEMI with good LV function (LVEF: ≥55%). Group II - Patients with first attack of NSTEMI with LV systolic dysfunction (LVEF: <55%). Then Troponin-I and LVEF levels were correlated using Pearson's correlation coefficient test. In this study mean Troponin-I of Group I and Group II were 5.53±7.43 and 16.46±15.79ng/ml respectively. It was statistically significant (p<0.05). Echocardiography showed that patients with high Troponin-I level had low ejection fraction (LVEF) and patients with low Troponin-I level had preserved ejection fraction (LVEF). Analysis showed that patients with severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVEF <35%) had the highest level of Troponin-I with worse in-hospital outcomes and vice versa-the patients with the preserved systolic function (LVEF ≥55%) had the lowest levels of Troponin-I with better in-hospital outcomes. In our study, it also showed that the levels of Troponin-I had negative correlation with LV ejection fraction levels, with medium strength of association (r= -0.5394, p=0.001). The study enabled us to conclude that, the higher was the Troponin-I level, the lower was the LV ejection fraction level and thus worse in-hospital outcomes in first attack of NSTEMI patients.

Abstract
Myocardial Infarction is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. The incidence of coronary heart disease is high and second most cause of death after cancer. This prospective study conducted on 100 patients admitted with first attack of acute myocardial infarction in the department of Cardiology in Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, Bangladesh from July 2012 to June 2013 who were observed 3 to 8 days of hospital stay without doing further echocardiography and evaluated the relationship between echocardiographic wall motion score index (WMSI) assessed within 24 hours of admission and in-hospital outcomes. Mean age was 53.24±10.17 years in WMSI <2 and 55.58±12.68 years in WMSI ≥2 groups; difference was statistically non-significant (p>0.05). In both groups, males were predominant sufferer. Male-female ratio was 3.55:1 and the difference was statistically non-significant (p>0.05). As a risk factor, smoking was significantly higher in both groups but the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05) between groups. Hypertension was 34(49.28%) cases in WMSI <2 and 13(41.93%) cases in WMSI ≥2 group; difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Diabetes mellitus was 13(18.84%) cases in WMSI <2 and 16(51.61%) cases in WMSI ≥2 group that was statistically significant (p<0.05). Dyslipidemia was 28(40.58%) cases in WMSI <2 group and 23(74.19%) cases in WMSI ≥2 group that was statistically significant (p<0.05). Site of involvement of MI in WMSI <2 group were 39(56.52%) cases AMI (Anterior) and 30(43.48%) cases AMI (Inferior). In WMSI ≥2 group, AMI (Anterior) were 29(93.55%) and AMI (Inferior) were 02(6.45%). It revealed that AMI (anterior) was significantly higher in WMSI ≥2 group and AMI (Inferior) was significantly higher in WMSI <2 group. Heart failure class (Killip class) increases with the increasing of WMSI. In Killip class-I, 4(5.80%) were WMSI <2 and 01(3.23%) was WMSI ≥2 (p>0.05). In Killip class-II, 8(11.59%) were WMSI <2 and 02(6.45%) were WMSI ≥2 (p>0.05). In Killip class-III, 4(5.80%) were WMSI <2 and 13(41.94%) were WMSI ≥2 (p<0.05). In Killip class-IV, 2(2.89%) were WMSI <2 and 05(16.13%) were WMSI ≥2 (p<0.05) that was statistically significant. Arrhythmia was 14(20.29%) cases in WMSI <2 group and 13(41.94%) cases in WMSI ≥2 group that was statistically significant (p<0.05). Death was 2(2.90%) cases in WMSI <2 and 07(22.58%) cases in WMSI ≥2 group that was statistically significant (p<0.05). Early mortality rate was greater in patients with both WMSI ≥2 and a higher Killip's class. The higher the WMSI determined within 24 hours of admission, the worse the in-hospital outcome. Echocardiography is an affordable and readily available technique, which may be used to identify and stratify the risk following acute MI.

Abstract
This cross sectional descriptive study was carried out in the Department of Cardiology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital from July 2015 to December 2015, included 50 patients admitted with acute coronary syndrome diagnosed on the basis of history, typical anginal type of chest pain, characteristic electrocardiographic changes and increased cardiac biomarkers. Platelet count (PC), Mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) were measured using automated hematological analyzer and compared them with 50 age and sex matched healthy controls. All platelet parameter indices - platelet count (PC), mean platelet volume (MPV) & platelet distribution width (PDW) - were significantly raised in patients with ACS. In patients with ACS the mean values of platelet count, MPV & PDW were 352.2×10⁹/L), 13.9fL & 15.6fL, respectively; while in normal healthy control the mean values of these indices were 256.2×10⁹/L), 8.1fL & 10.5fL, respectively. Statistically significant difference in mean values of these indices was found (p value <0.05). Larger platelets are haemostatically more active and are a risk factor for developing coronary thrombosis and subsequent acute coronary events (myocardial infarction and unstable angina). Patients with larger platelets can easily be identified during routine hematological analysis and could possibly benefit from preventive treatment.

Abstract
Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in developed as well as developing countries like Bangladesh. Elevated serum uric acid levels may predict an increased risk for cerebro-vascular (CV) events including stroke. Aim of the study was to measure the serum uric acid level among stroke patients and determine the relationship between serum uric acid level and stroke. This descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out in Department of Medicine, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, Bangladesh to measure serum uric acid level among 102 stroke patients in a period of one year by using non-probability sampling procedure. Finally, collected data were analyzed using SPSS software Version 17.0. It was observed that the mean age of patients was 60.87±8.05 years, of them 80(78.43%) patients were male and the rest 22(21.57%) were female. About 66(64.70%) of respondents were in age group 60 years and above, while 36(35.30%) were in age group 59 years and below. At least 23(22.55%) of stroke patients had elevated serum uric acid with a mean serum uric acid level of 5.18mg/dl and standard deviation 1.26mg/dl. About 23(27.38%) patients in ischemic stroke had elevated serum uric acid whereas 18(100%) patients in hemorrhagic stroke had normal uric acid level. Uric acid level was elevated in ischemic stroke than haemorrhagic stroke patients (p<0.001). High uric acid level may be considered as a risk factor in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Abstract
This was a prospective and observational study. One hundred and sixty five consecutive patients (75 diabetic and 90 were non-diabetic) admitted to coronary care unit in Rangpur Medical College and Hospital, Rangpur from December 2011 to June 2012 with the diagnosis of first attack of acute coronary syndrome were included in this study. Patients were selected considering the inclusion and exclusion criteria, Symptom time, typical or atypical chest pain, Dysponea, palpitation, cardiogenic shock, cardiac arrest, vital signs and Killip classes were regarded as presentation at admission. Outcome parameters observed during the hospital stay were in-hospital mortality, cardiogenic shock, congestive cardiac failure, symptomatic arrhythmias, cardiac arrest, recurrent ischemia and hospital stay. The results were obtained by calculating 'p' value by 'z' test, 't' test, chi-square test, as appropriate to see the difference between two groups. The results thus obtained were plotted on table, pie-chart, line chart, bar-diagram etc. as appropriate p value <0.05 was considered significant. In the study, diabetic patients presented with acute coronary syndrome at earlier age (p=053). Body Mass Index was significantly more in diabetic group (25.053 ± 2.1428 vs. 24.0822 kg/m² ± 2.233 kg/m², p=0.0045). Atypical chest pain (40% vs. 24.4%, p=0.0323), Dysponea (53.3 vs. 36.7%, p=0.0315), cardiac shock (17.33 vs. 6.7%, p=0.03236) and symptom duration before presentation (31.067 ± 42.5 hours vs. 19.44 ± 30.3 hours, p=0.0471) were significantly more observed in diabetic group. In respect of outcome, diabetic patients experienced more recurrent ischemia (24% vs. 16.67%, p=0.0524) and heart failure (36% vs. 22.2%, p=0.05). Hospital stay was also found significantly higher in diabetic group (5.097 ± 1.023 vs. 4.097 ± 1.009, p=0.0078). Atypically presented group suffered significantly more from congestive heart failure p=0.0392. Triglyceride level (230.7 ± 61.7 vs. 180.1 ± 39.1, p<0.001) were significantly more in diabetic group. The mean value of Hba1C in diabetic patients was 8.0278 ± 10.44965%. This study suggested that atypical chest pain, dysponea and cardiac shock were more in diabetic group at presentation. Recurrent ischemia, heart failure and hospital stay were more in diabetic group as outcome.

Abstract
There is a relationship between the left ventricular diastolic dysfunction with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus. A cross sectional study was designed to see the association of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus with diastolic dysfunction of the heart. The study was conducted from April 2012 to March 2013 in the department of cardiology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh. Sixty cases were selected as study population; twenty one patients were in Group I with good glycaemic controlled of HbA1C <7% and 39 patients were in Group II with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus having HbA1C ≥ 7%. In the study population male were 43(71.70%) and female were 17(28.30%). Mean age in the two groups were 49.05 ± 6.34 years vs. 53.64 ± 5.38 years, which was not significant difference. Duration of diabetes was <10 years and ≥ 10 years in two groups. Glycaemic status (percentage of HbA1C) was 6.55 ± 0.29% vs. 8.72 ± 1.01% in controlled and uncontrolled diabetic patient groups respectively which was significant difference. Diastolic dysfunction was found more in uncontrolled diabetic patient (patients having HbA1C% ≥ 7%) than controlled diabetic patients (HbA1C <7%). Grade I diastolic dysfunction was in uncontrolled and controlled glycaemic status were 33(84.60%) and 04(19.00%). The difference was statistically significant. Diastolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetic subjects was significantly higher as compared to the well control group (p<0.001). And this study concluded as - Diastolic dysfunction is more common in patient with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to measure apolipoprotein B (ApoB) in hyper-triglyceridemic (HTG) young people of Bangladesh for predicting risk of acute coronary syndrome. This case-control study was carried out in Department of Cardiology, of Mymensingh Medical College Hospital within the period from June 2009 to May 2010. A total 50 case of 18-45 years of age with first attack of acute coronary syndrome admitted in coronary care unit and 50 healthy controls of same age and sex distribution were studied. Twenty (40%) of the studied case and 21(42%) of controls had hyper hyper-triglyceridemia, of those 18(90%) of HTG cases and 12(57.1%) of HTG controls had hyper-ApoB condition. The present study shows significant association of apolipoprotein B as an independent determinant and estimation of ApoB may be an alternative tool for predicting risk of development of acute coronary syndrome in hyper-triglyceridemic young people.

Abstract
Cardiogenic shock is rare in isolated acute inferior myocardial infarction but there is relationship of cardiogenic shock with inferior myocardial infarction if associated with right ventricular infarction. A prospective study was carried out to see the association of cardiogenic shock with inferior myocardial infarction if associated with right ventricular infarction. This study was conducted from January 2011 to November 2011. A total of 100 cases were selected as study population which was taken from the Department of Cardiology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, Bangladesh. Among them 50 were in Group A and 50 were in Group B. Group A was the patients of acute myocardial infarction with right ventricular infarction. Group B was the patients of acute myocardial infarction without right ventricular infarction. It revealed that 9(18%) in Group A and 3(6%) in Group B developed cardiogenic shock which is statistically significant (p<0.05). The study concluded that AMI (Inf) with RVI is significantly associated with cardiogenic shock.

Abstract
Diurnal vertical migration of four genera of cladocerans, namely Diaphanosoma sp., Daphnia sp., Moina sp. and Bosmina sp., during March to December, 2007 showed that the number of Diaphanosoma sp. was 501 units/1 in the surface layers, 172 units/l in the middle layers and 190 units/l in the bottom layers. The yearly number of Daphnia sp. in surface, middle and bottom layerss was 362 units/l, 46 units/l and 189 units/l respectively. In surface, bottom and middle layers, the number of Moina sp. was 159, 71 and 32 units/l, respectively. Bosmina sp. was 78 units/l in surface, 31 units/l in the middle and 33 units/l in the bottom layers. The number of Diaphanosoma sp., Daphnia sp., Moina sp., Bosmina sp., were 455, 149, 259 and 358 units/l, respectively in the morning, 63, 176, 142, 43 units/l at noon and 107, 55, 28, 59 units/l, respectively in the evening. Throughout the study period the cladocerans were always abundant near the surface during morning and evening. Among the factors responsible for the diurnal movement of cadoceran, light played the most important factor. The relationship between the physico-chemical factors and the cladoceran occurrence in the pond was also explored.
