Abstract
OBJECTIVE The goal was to characterize short-term kidney status and describe variation in early care utilization in a multicenter cohort of patients with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) and nephritis. METHODS We analyzed previously collected prospective data from North American patients with cSLE with kidney biopsy-proven nephritis enrolled in the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry from March 2017 through December 2019. We determined the proportion of patients with abnormal kidney status at the most recent registry visit and applied generalized linear mixed models to identify associated factors. We also calculated frequency of medication use, both during induction and ever recorded. RESULTS We identified 222 patients with kidney biopsy-proven nephritis, with 64% class III/IV nephritis on initial biopsy. At the most recent registry visit at median (interquartile range) of 17 (8-29) months from initial kidney biopsy, 58 of 106 patients (55%) with available data had abnormal kidney status. This finding was associated with male sex (odds ratio [OR] 3.88, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.21-12.46) and age at cSLE diagnosis (OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.01-1.49). Patients with class IV nephritis were more likely than class III to receive cyclophosphamide and rituximab during induction. There was substantial variation in mycophenolate, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab ever use patterns across rheumatology centers. CONCLUSION In this cohort with predominately class III/IV nephritis, male sex and older age at cSLE diagnosis were associated with abnormal short-term kidney status. We also observed substantial variation in contemporary medication use for pediatric lupus nephritis between pediatric rheumatology centers. Additional studies are needed to better understand the impact of this variation on long-term kidney outcomes.

Abstract
Background Thalassemia and hemoglobinopathies are a group of inherited conditions characterized by abnormalities in the synthesis or structure of hemoglobin (Hb). According to estimates, approximately 7% of the world population is a carrier of Hb disorders, leading to high morbidity and mortality. To reduce the burden of these highly prevalent monogenic disorders, detecting them in the carrier stage is crucial to prevent disease progression. Aim We aimed to estimate the prevalence and spectrum of hemoglobinopathies in females in the reproductive (20-40 years) age group. Settings and Design It was a retrospective observational study carried out for 2.5 years (from January 2018 till June 2020). Materials and Methods All the females in the age group of 20-40 years age whose blood samples were received in the department for High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) were included. The cases with abnormal HPLC findings were analyzed for hematological parameters including hemoglobin, RBC count, and RBC indices [mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), & red cell distribution width - coefficient of variation (RDW-CV)]. Statistical Analysis Statistical package for social science (SPSS) statistics 21 version for Microsoft Windows (Chicago, USA) was used for statistical analysis of data. The data were described in terms of range, mean ± standard deviation (SD), frequencies (number of cases), and relative frequencies (percentage) as appropriate. Results During the study period, 72.2% of the females were affected with β-thalassemia trait, followed by HbD Punjab trait (17.8%), HbQ India trait (2.9%), β-thalassemia major (1.8%), and two cases (1.2%) each of HbS trait, HbD Iran trait, and compound heterozygous of HbD Punjab and β-thalassaemia, whereas HbE trait, compound heterozygous of HbQ and β-thalassemia, compound heterozygous of HbJ-variant and β-thalassemia had one case each (0.6%). Conclusion Preventive strategies are cost-effective and include population screening, premarital screening, screening of spouses, genetic counseling, and prenatal diagnosis. Educating the carrier females about the potential risk and various screening methods may help in controlling the disease.

Abstract
AIMS The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) EURObservational Research Programme (EORP) Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) Registry aims to identify international patterns in NSTEMI management in clinical practice and outcomes against the 2015 ESC Guidelines for the management of acute coronary syndromes in patients presenting without ST-segment-elevation. METHODS AND RESULTS Consecutively hospitalised adult NSTEMI patients (n = 3620) were enrolled between 11 March 2019 and 6 March 2021, and individual patient data prospectively collected at 287 centres in 59 participating countries during a two-week enrolment period per centre. The registry collected data relating to baseline characteristics, major outcomes (in-hospital death, acute heart failure, cardiogenic shock, bleeding, stroke/transient ischaemic attack, and 30-day mortality) and guideline-recommended NSTEMI care interventions: electrocardiogram pre- or in-hospital, pre-hospitalization receipt of aspirin, echocardiography, coronary angiography, referral to cardiac rehabilitation, smoking cessation advice, dietary advice, and prescription on discharge of aspirin, P2Y12 inhibition, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi)/angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), beta-blocker, and statin. CONCLUSION The EORP NSTEMI Registry is an international, prospective registry of care and outcomes of patients treated for NSTEMI, which will provide unique insights into the contemporary management of hospitalised NSTEMI patients, compliance with ESC 2015 NSTEMI Guidelines, and identify potential barriers to optimal management of this common clinical presentation associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) who achieve a drug free remission often experience a flare of their disease requiring either intraarticular steroids (IAS) or systemic treatment with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). IAS offer an opportunity to recapture disease control and avoid exposure to side effects from systemic immunosuppression. We examined a cohort of patients treated with IAS after drug free remission and report the probability of restarting systemic treatment within 12 months. METHODS We analyzed a cohort of patients from the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry who received IAS for a flare after a period of drug free remission. Historical factors and clinical characteristics and of the patients including data obtained at the time of treatment were analyzed. RESULTS We identified 46 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Of those with follow up data available 49% had restarted systemic treatment 6 months after IAS injection and 70% had restarted systemic treatment at 12 months. The proportion of patients with prior use of a biologic DMARD was the only factor that differed between patients who restarted systemic treatment those who did not, both at 6 months (79% vs 35%, p < 0.01) and 12 months (81% vs 33%, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION While IAS are an option for all patients who flare after drug free remission, it may not prevent the need to restart systemic treatment. Prior use of a biologic DMARD may predict lack of success for IAS. Those who previously received methotrexate only, on the other hand, are excellent candidates for IAS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Social determinants of health (SDH) greatly influence outcomes during the first year of treatment in rheumatoid arthritis, a disease similar to polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA). We investigated the correlation of community poverty level and other SDH with the persistence of moderate to severe disease activity and functional disability over the first year of treatment in pJIA patients enrolled in the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance Registry. METHODS In this cohort study, unadjusted and adjusted generalized linear mixed effects models analyzed the effect of community poverty and other SDH on disease activity, using the clinical Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score-10, and disability, using the Child Health Assessment Questionnaire, measured at baseline, 6, and 12 months. RESULTS One thousand six hundred eighty-four patients were identified. High community poverty (≥20% living below the federal poverty level) was associated with increased odds of functional disability (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.28-2.60) but was not statistically significant after adjustment (aOR 1.23, 95% CI 0.81-1.86) and was not associated with increased disease activity. Non-white race/ethnicity was associated with higher disease activity (aOR 2.48, 95% CI: 1.41-4.36). Lower self-reported household income was associated with higher disease activity and persistent functional disability. Public insurance (aOR 1.56, 95% CI 1.06-2.29) and low family education (aOR 1.89, 95% CI 1.14-3.12) was associated with persistent functional disability. CONCLUSION High community poverty level was associated with persistent functional disability in unadjusted analysis but not with persistent moderate to high disease activity. Race/ethnicity and other SDH were associated with persistent disease activity and functional disability.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Phenylephrine is the vasopressor of choice in spinal anaesthesia–induced maternal hypotension. However, it results in reflex bradycardia and decrease in cardiac output (CO), an effect that is perhaps less evident with the use of norepinephrine. We sought to evaluate the effect of phenylephrine and norepinephrine infusion on maternal systolic blood pressure (SBP), heart rate (HR), intraoperative nausea vomiting (IONV) and fatal Apgar scores. Methods: A randomised double-blind study was conducted on 200 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) II–III parturients undergoing caesarean section under subarachnoid block (SAB) who were randomised to two groups A and B to receive variable rate, manually controlled infusions of phenylephrine and norepinephrine targeting maintenance of SBP to 100% of the baseline value. Maternal haemodynamics especially episodes of hypotension, IONV and vasopressor consumption were observed and recorded. Results: A statistically significant trend of lower SBP was observed during the first 6 min following intrathecal injection in group A (P value – 0.000). Though a greater number of parturients experienced ≥1 episode of hypotension in Group A vs Group B (13% vs 9%), the difference was, however, statistically insignificant. The incidence of bradycardia was higher in group A than in group B (16% vs 1%) and was found to be statistically significant (P < 0.05). The episodes of hypertension, IONV, maternal vasopressor consumption and neonatal Apgar score were comparable among both the groups. Conclusion: A dilute solution of norepinephrine infusion is comparably efficacious to the current gold standard vasopressor phenylephrine in maintaining blood pressure following spinal anaesthesia for caesarean delivery, with a significantly lower incidence of bradycardia.

Abstract
Introduction During pregnancy, liver dysfunction is more frequent than expected and may require specialized care. For the early diagnosis, it is important to determine if changes in liver physiology may develop into liver disease. Liver disease during pregnancy may require intervention from a hepatologist for adequate monitoring of mother-fetus health outcomes. This study was aimed to evaluate the clinical profile and predictors of maternal mortality in patients with liver diseases among Asian-Indian-females. Methods We conducted a prospective, open-label, consecutive all-comers study of 2,663 pregnant Asian Indian women admitted in the hospital, which included 92 with liver dysfunction. The medical aspects of the pregnancy were then followed prospectively with laboratory and clinical data during the hospital stay and analyzed. The current study was approved by the Institutional Ethical Committee. Results We found that 92 out of 2,663 patients had liver dysfunction with a prevalence of 3.45%. Fifty-four (58.7%) patients had icterus followed by fever in 23 (25.0%), hypertension in 22 (23.9%), central nervous system manifestations in 21 (22.8%), abdominal pain in 19 (20.6%), vomiting in 19 (20.6%), and pruritus in six (6.5%). Predictors of maternal mortality were icterus (p = 0.04), hepatomegaly (p = 0.04), presenting serum-bilirubin greater than 10 milligram% (mg%) (p = 0.008). The most common etiology was acute viral hepatitis (45.6%), followed by a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (29.3%), acute fatty liver of pregnancy (1.1%), cholestatic jaundice (9.8%), hyperemesis gravidarum (2.2%), septicemic hepatitis (3.3%), dengue immunoglobulin M (IgM), and plasmodium vivax malaria antigen positive in (2.2%) each. Four patients (4.3%) were leptospira IgM reactive and had co-infection with hepatitis E virus. There was one patient (1.1%) with underlying chronic liver disease. Idiopathic liver disease was present in 5.4% of patients. Conclusion Liver disease is relatively common in Indian pregnant women. It is associated with high maternal and perinatal mortality, even in a tertiary referral center. When managing pregnancy in a tertiary care center, for adequate follow-up of the disease and to prevent adverse consequences for mother and child, it is important to discard liver alterations early. For this purpose, liver disease during pregnancy needs early diagnosis for proper management. Furthermore, it is difficult to manage patients with preexisting liver disease, and it may require specialized intervention from a hepatologist and a gastroenterologist.

Abstract
Background and Aims: COVID-19 disease has imposed challenges in caring for non-Covid elective surgical patients. As elective surgeries become essential, we propose to evaluate our approach and outcomes of surgical procedures performed during the initial period of COVID-19 pandemic so as to provide a road-map for safer approach. Material and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated outcomes in patients who underwent essential elective and emergency surgeries during the 5-week period between April 18, 2020 and May 28, 2020. All patients were screened at the front desk on their arrival to identify possible exposure to SARS- CoV-2. Nasopharyngeal swab of patients requiring hospital admission was tested for COVID-19 by quantitative RT-PCR. Patients needing essential elective surgery were taken up for surgery if they tested negative for COVID-19. Emergency procedures were undertaken in a demarcated theatre for COVID after taking level-3 protection without delay. The clinical data was reviewed and analysed. Results: A total of 764 surgical procedures were conducted, of which 70.7% were elective essential surgeries, with 95.4% of these patients being discharged in stable healthy condition. Approximately 23% of the elective and 26% of the emergency surgeries was categorised in the surgical difficulty category III and majority of these were performed under general anesthesia. Postoperative mortality was 1.04%, but the overall mortality rate was approximately 2.5%. Only two patients (0.3%) tested positive for COVID-19 in our series. Conclusion: A robust preoperative screening and testing can enable safe scheduling of essential elective surgeries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Vitamin D deficiency is on a rise globally and so are the maternal complications related to it. This deficiency can be easily detected and corrected by simple oral supplementation for a better health outcome in pregnancy. METHODS Antenatal women with no history of Vitamin D intake and first antenatal visit at our hospital between 26 to 28 weeks of gestation or after 34 weeks were tested for levels of Vitamin 25(OH)D. Deficient women (< 30 ng/ml) between 26 to 28 weeks were supplemented and tested again before delivery (Group A). Deficient women after 34 weeks who did not receive supplementation before delivery constituted Group B. Maternal outcome was noted and compared in both the groups. RESULTS Out of the 189 Vitamin D deficient women included in the study; 105(55.5%) were enrolled in Group A and 84 (44.4%) in Group B. 24 (12.7%) women were severely deficient (<4 ng/ml), 134 (70.9%) were deficient (<20 ng/ml) and 28(14.8%) were vitamin D insufficient (20-30 ng/ml). A statistically significant reduction (<0.001) was observed in vitamin D deficient women after supplementation in group A. 5.7% women developed preeclampsia in group A as compared to 28.5% in group B (p<0.0001). Higher (13%) incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus was observed in group B as compared to group A (6.6%) though the difference was not significant. A significantly higher incidence of preterm labor was observed in group B (p=0.007). CONCLUSION Vitamin D deficiency is correlated with a higher incidence of preeclampsia, gestational diabetes mellitus and preterm birth. Maternal screening in targeted population and its supplementation is recommended to improve maternal outcome.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of placental concentrations of some organochlorine pesticides on newborn's anthropometric measurements (height, weight, head circumference & ponderal index). For this study, we have collected 90 placental tissue samples for the measurement of Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) & Hexachlocyclohexane (HCH) by Gas Chromatography equipped with Electron Capture Detector (GC-ECD). Regression analysis were performed between outcome variables such as birth weight, birth height, head circumference, ponderal index and independent variable i.e., organochlorine pesticide concentrations. In case of birth weight, there was a substantial decrease of 5.81, 1.94, 4.71, and 2.64 g for 1 ppb (μg/L) increase in placental α-HCH, β-HCH, γ-HCH, and total HCH concentrations respectively. Significant decrease of 2.02 and 0.43 kg/m3 in ponderal index was found with 1 μg/L increase of total-HCH and total DDT concentrations in placenta. The results of this study support an association between environmental exposure to organochlorine pesticides and anthropometric development of the fetus leading to a significant reduction in its birth weight and ponderal index, slight and non-significant reduction in birth height and head circumference. Efforts should be made to reduce exposure of women of reproductive age in relation to long-term impact on health.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sepsis results in immunologic disturbances with the release of various inflammatory mediators such as cytokines. Cytokines can damage the cells, and the continuous release of inflammatory mediators leads to severely impaired immunity. Therefore, the reduction in cytokine levels by hemoadsorption represents a new concept for blood purification. CytoSorb® as a hemoadsorption device is a detoxification system, which aims to decrease the cytokines levels. This study was conducted to understand any beneficial effects of CytoSorb® therapy in septic patients. METHODOLOGY This was a retrospective and observational study, approved by the scientific and ethics committee of Max Super Specialty Hospital, Patparganj, Delhi, India and conducted in compliance with current International Council for Harmonization, Good Clinical Practice, Schedule Y, and Indian Council of Medical Research guidelines. Subjects of either gender (age > 18 year) were included in the study. The data were presented as mean ± standard deviation and categorical as frequency and percentage (%). A p value less than 0.05 (p < 0.05) was considered to be statistically significant. RESULTS A total number of 36 patients were included in the study. Majority of the patients were male with mean age (56.36 ± 14.83). After therapy, procalcitonin and total leucocyte count levels decreased within 24 h. Post therapy, sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score of Day (D)1, D2, and D3 reduced to 10.4 ± 3.63, 8.7 ± 4.02, and 7.8 ± 3.67, respectively. The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score and predicted mortality were lower in the survivor group as compared to the non-survivor group. CONCLUSION Hemoadsorption using the extracorporeal adsorption device (CytoSorb®) might be an effective rescue therapy in stabilizing septic shock patients.

Abstract
Pre-term birth is an increasingly prevalent complex condition with multiple risk factors including environmental pollutants. Evidences linking organochlorine pesticides with adverse pregnancy outcomes are inconsistent for link between organochlorine pesticides and adverse pregnancy outcomes. We performed a case-control study of 50 cases of full-term births and 40 cases of pre-term births in this study. Placental organochlorine pesticides like metabolites of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane that is, (p,p-DDE, p,p-DDT and o,p-DDD) and isomers of hexachlorocyclohexane (α, β, γ and δ HCH) were analyzed by gas chromatography. Although the mean levels of pesticide were found higher in the placenta of the women with pre-term delivery cases placentas, but only α-HCH, total-HCH, p,p-DDE and total-DDT were found statistically significant. It was observed that pesticide exposed women were approximately 1.7 times more likely to deliver pre-term baby as compare to pregnant women that were not exposed to any pesticides. We also observed that increasing maternal age reduced the risk of having pre-term birth (OR = 0.99). Among all pesticides, α-HCH was found to be strongest isomer to induce premature baby birth (p < 0.001). This study found that pregnant women's age and chronic disease, baby's weight at the time of birth and α-HCH were important risk factors for pre-term births.

Abstract
Oligohydramnios is associated with increased maternal and foetal morbidities. However, some of the recent studies have shown no adverse effect of isolated oligohydramnios on perinatal outcome and recommends continuation of pregnancy. Pregnancies between 18-28 weeks with isolated Oligohydramnios were included. History and physical examination was recorded in a pre-designed proforma. All the cases received care as per the protocol. A total of seven patients were recruited of which one was a twin pregnancy with Oligohydramnios in both sacs. The mean age at presentation was 30 years. Three patients went into spontaneous explusion at an average gestational age of 22-24 weeks. One patient with twins delivered vaginally at 32 weeks. Rest were delivered by caesarean section between 34-35 weeks (indication in majority of the cases was foetal distress and cord compression). None of the babies suffered any complication and were discharged in good condition. Isolated oligohydramnios during second trimester does not increase adverse perinatal outcome significantly (but increases the caesarean section rate) and therefore, should not be an indication for termination of pregnancy.

Abstract
AIM Despite an improved understanding of the molecular mechanisms of nociception, existing analgesic drugs remain limited in terms of efficacy in chronic conditions, such as neuropathic pain. Here, we explore the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of neuropathic and inflammatory pain and discuss the prerequisites and opportunities to reduce attrition and high-failure rate in the development of analgesic drugs. METHODS A literature search was performed on preclinical and clinical publications aimed at the evaluation of analgesic compounds using MESH terms in PubMed. Publications were selected, which focused on (1) disease mechanisms leading to chronic/neuropathic pain and (2) druggable targets which are currently under evaluation in drug development. Attention was also given to the role of biomarkers and pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modelling. RESULTS Multiple mechanisms act concurrently to produce pain, which is a non-specific manifestation of underlying nociceptive pathways. Whereas these manifestations can be divided into neuropathic and inflammatory pain, it is now clear that inflammatory mechanisms are a common trigger for both types of pain. This has implications for drug development, as the assessment of drug effects in experimental models of neuropathic and chronic pain is driven by overt behavioural measures. By contrast, the use of mechanistic biomarkers in inflammatory pain has provided the pharmacological basis for dose selection and evaluation of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). CONCLUSION A different paradigm is required for the identification of relevant targets and candidate molecules whereby pain is coupled to the cause of sensorial signal processing dysfunction rather than clinical symptoms. Biomarkers which enable the characterisation of drug binding and target activity are needed for a more robust dose rationale in early clinical development. Such an approach may be facilitated by quantitative clinical pharmacology and evolving technologies in brain imaging, allowing accurate assessment of target engagement, and prediction of treatment effects before embarking on large clinical trials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Endometriosis is an oestrogen-dependent disorder, manifests during reproductive years and is associated with pain and infertility. There is considerable debate about the effectiveness of various interventions for pain relief. AIM To evaluate the efficacy of Levonorgestrel Intrauterine System (LNG-IUS) and Danazol in postoperative pain relief for patients with endometriosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Hundred patients with diagnosis of endometriosis, who were treated laparoscopically, entered the study to receive either danazol (600 mg once daily) or LNG-IUS (inserted during immediate post operative period) postsurgery, for pain relief. Patients were analysed for pain relief according to VAS score and recurrence of disease using ultrasonography at third and sixth months of follow up. RESULTS There were 50% patients in stage IV of endometriosis. Majority of them presented with complaint of infertility (49%) and pelvic pain (43%). It was observed that LNG-IUS was significantly more effective in relieving pain compared to danazol (65.2% vs 38.0%, p<0.05). Recurrence rate was significantly lower in LNG-IUS users compared to other group. CONCLUSION LNG-IUS was found to be more effective in relieving pain compared to danazol.

Abstract
Human exposure to fine particles can have significant harmful effects on the respiratory and cardiovascular system. To investigate daily exposure characteristics to PM2.5 with ambient concentrations in an urban environment, a personal exposure measurements were conducted for school children, office workers and at their residents, in the city of Taj 'Agra', India. In order to account for all the sources of particulate matter exposure, measurements on several different days during December 2013 to February 2014 were carried out. Personal environment monitors (PEM) and APM 550 were used to measure PM2.5 concentration. The research findings provide insight into possible sources and their interaction with human activities in modifying the human exposure levels.

Abstract
Patient-initiated follow up (PIFU) is an initiative that allows patients to initiate hospital follow-up appointments on an 'as required' basis compared with the traditional 'physician-initiated' model. The main principle is to reduce inappropriate regular follow-up appointments. In this systematic review, we attempt to address its efficacy for outpatient secondary level care. Using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines, an electronic literature search was performed independently by two authors using pre-defined search terms across EMBASE, Ovid MedLine, PubMed, PSYCINFO and the Cochrane Library databases. Articles were included if they specifically evaluated any aspect of PIFU. Studies evaluating non-outpatient-based, primary level-based and nurse-led clinic appointments were excluded. A total of 747 articles was reviewed, and six were finally included for the systematic review. Three studies analysed efficacy of PIFU with regards to rheumatological disease and found that there was no deleterious clinical effect and a trend towards increased satisfaction and quality of life including lower costs in the PIFU group. Two studies looked at PIFU and inflammatory bowel disease and identified some clinical benefit and lower costs and equivalent satisfaction and QoL with the PIFU group. A further study looked at PIFU in stage 1 breast cancer and did not find any significant differences in outcomes. There is evidence to suggest that PIFU systems result in fewer overall outpatient appointments in secondary care led services while maintaining equivalent if not better patient satisfaction, quality of life and clinical outcomes across a range of chronic conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE The formalin-induced rat model of nociception involves moderate continuous pain. Formalin-induced pain results in a typical repetitive flinching behaviour, which displays a biphasic pattern characterised by peaks of pain. Here we described the time course of pain response and the analgesic effect of gabapentin using a semi-mechanistic modelling approach. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats received gabapentin (10-100 mg/kg) or placebo 1 h prior to the formalin injection, as per standard protocol. A reduction in the frequency of the second peak of flinching was used as a behavioural measure of gabapentin-mediated anti-nociception. The flinching response was modelled using a mono-exponential function to characterise the first peak and an indirect response model with a time variant synthesis rate for the second. PKPD modelling was performed using a population approach in NONMEM v.7.1.2. RESULTS The time course of the biphasic response was adequately described by the proposed model, which included separate expressions for each phase. Gabapentin was found to reversibly decrease, but not suppress the flinching frequency of the second response peak only. The mean IC50 estimate was 7,510 ng/ml, with relative standard error (RSE%) of 40%. CONCLUSIONS A compartmental, semi-mechanistic model provides the basis for further understanding of the formalin-induced flinching response and consequently to better characterisation of the properties of gabapentin, such as the potency in individual animals. Moreover, despite high exposure levels, model predictions show that gabapentin does not completely suppress behavioural response in the formalin-induced pain model.

Abstract
We have previously shown how screening experiments for neuropathic pain can be optimised taking into account parameter and model uncertainty. Here we demonstrate how optimised protocols can be used to screen and rank candidate molecules. The concept is illustrated by pregabalin as a new chemical entity and gabapentin as a reference compound. ED-optimality was applied to a logistic regression model describing the relationship between drug exposure and response to evoked pain in the complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) model in rats. Design variables for optimisation of the experimental protocol included dose levels and sampling times. Prior information from the reference compound was used in conjunction with relative in vitro potency as priors. Results from simulated scenarios were then combined with fitting of experimental data to estimate precision and bias of model parameters for the empirical and optimised designs. The pharmacokinetics of pregabalin was described by a two-compartment model. The expected value of EC(50) of pregabalin was 637.5 ng ml(-1). Model-based analysis of the data yielded median (range) of EC(50) values of 1,125 (898-2412) ng ml(-1) for the empirical protocol and 755 (189-756) ng ml(-1) for the optimised design. In contrast to current practice, optimal design entails different sampling schedule across dose levels. ED-optimised designs should become standard practice in the screening of candidate molecules. It ensures lower bias when estimating the drug potency, facilitating accurate ranking and selection of compounds for further development.

Abstract
In spite of the evidence regarding high variability in the response to evoked pain, little attention has been paid to its impact on the screening of drugs for inflammatory and neuropathic pain. In this study, we explore the feasibility of introducing optimality concepts to experimental protocols, enabling estimation of parameter and model uncertainty. Pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic data from different experiments in rats were pooled and modelled using nonlinear mixed effects modelling. Pain data on gabapentin and placebo-treated animals were generated in the complete Freund's adjuvant model of neuropathic pain. A logistic regression model was applied to optimise sampling times and dose levels to be used in an experimental protocol. Drug potency (EC(50)) and interindividual variability (IIV) were considered the parameters of interest. Different experimental designs were tested and validated by SSE (stochastic simulation and estimation) taking into account relevant exposure ranges. The pharmacokinetics of gabapentin was described by a two-compartment PK model with first order absorption (CL = 0.159 l h(-1), V(2) = 0.118 l, V(3) = 0.253 l, Ka = 0.26 h(-1), Q = 1.22 l h(-1)). Drug potency (EC(50)) for the anti-allodynic effects was estimated to be 1400 ng ml(-1). Protocol optimisation improved bias and precision of the EC50 by 6 and 11.9. %, respectively, whilst IIV estimates showed improvement of 31.89 and 14.91 %, respectively. Our results show that variability in behavioural models of evoked pain response leads to uncertainty in drug potency estimates, with potential impact on the ranking of compounds during screening. As illustrated for gabapentin, ED-optimality concepts enable analysis of discrete data taking into account experimental constraints.

Abstract
A self-excited biped walking mechanism consisting of two legs that are connected in series at the hip joint through a servomotor is studied as a cyclic system with collisions. A torque proportional to angle between the shank of the swinging leg and the vertical is seen to sustain a gait. Each leg has a thigh and a shank connected at a passive knee joint that has a knee stopper restricting hyperextension similar to the human knee. A mathematical model for the dynamics of the system including the impact equations is used to analyse the stability of the system through examination of phase plane plots. Attractor lines along which the system approaches stability have been identified. A leg length for optimal stability has been identified. The biological basis for the proposed system has been identified by comparison with human gait.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) without ST elevation are a frequent cause of hospital admission, myocardial infarction and death. AIM To explore the role of the ECG in stratifying ACS patients. DESIGN Prospective, centrally-coordinated multicentre registry involving 56 centres throughout the UK. METHODS Consecutive patients admitted with ACS without ST elevation on the presenting ECG (n = 1046) were followed for 6 months. A subgroup (n = 653) were flagged with the UK Office for National Statistics and followed-up for death over 4 years. RESULTS Mean follow-up for the group as a whole was 2.4 years. In the first 6 months, the death rate was 7.3%. Survival at 1 year was 90.8% (95%CI 88.2%-92.8%); at 45 months it was 77.8% (95%CI 74.1%-81.1%). We compared data in those with ST depression or bundle branch block on the admission ECG (n = 304, 29%) with those with T wave inversion, Q waves and minor ST segment changes (n = 576, 55%) and those with a normal ECG (n = 166, 16%). Their respective incidences of death were 15%, 5% and 2% (p < 0.01) at 6 months, and 38%, 22% and 7% (p < 0.01) at 4 years. DISCUSSION Rates of adverse events are high in patients admitted to UK hospitals with ACS without ST elevation. The ECG remains a very important and simple discriminator of both short- and long-term risk, enabling more aggressive, proven therapies to be targeted towards those at highest risk.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Indoor air quality (IAQ) has been a matter of public concern these days whereas air pollution is normally monitored outdoors as part of obligations under the National air quality strategies. Much little is known about levels of air pollution indoors. Simultaneous measurements of indoor and outdoor carbon monoxide (CO) and oxides of nitrogen (NO and NO2) concentrations were conducted at three different environments, i.e. rural, urban and roadside in Agra, India, using YES - 205 multigas monitor during the winter season, i.e. October 2002-February 2003. A statistical correlation analysis of indoor concentration levels with outdoor concentrations was carried out. CO was maximum at roadside locations with indoor concentrations 2072.5 +/- 372 p.p.b. and outdoor concentrations 1220 +/- 281 p.p.b. (R2 = 0.005). Oxides of nitrogen were found maximum at urban site; NO concentration was 385 +/- 211 and 637 +/- 269 p.p.b. for indoors and outdoors respectively (R2 = 0.90792), where as NO2 concentration was 255 +/- 146 p.p.b. for indoors and 460 +/- 225 p.p.b. for outdoors (R2 = 0939464). Although indoor concentration at all the houses of the three sites have a positive correlation with outdoor concentration, CO variation indoors was very less due to outdoor sources. An activity schedule of inside and outside these homes were also prepared to see its influence and concentrations of pollutants. As standards for indoor air were not available for the Indian conditions these were compared with the known standards of other countries, where as outdoor concentrations were compared with the standards given by the Central Pollution Control board, which shows that indoor concentrations of both NO(x) and CO lie below permissible limits but outdoor concentrations of NO(x) cross the standard limits. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS ''India currently bears the largest number of indoor air pollution (IAP) related health problems in world. An estimated 500,000 women & children die in India each year due to IAP-related cause--this is 25% of estimated IAP-related deaths worldwide. This study will be useful for policy makers, health related officials, academicians and Scientists who have interest in countries of developing world''.

Abstract
This study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of montelukast, as monotherapy, in the treatment of chronic stable bronchial asthma in adults. This was a multicentre, open label, non-comparative, prospective, 4-week study. Eligible patients discontinued all anti-inflammatory medication (steroids, chromoglycate sodium) 2 weeks prior to starting therapy with montelukast (10 mg daily). The primary efficacy criteria were improvements in forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), peak exploratory flow rate (PEFR) after 4 weeks of therapy. Secondary efficacy criteria were improvement in the patients' symptoms (assessed on an ordinal scale), decrease in discomfort levels (scored on a scale of 0-100), change in peripheral eosinophil counts, decrease in total daily dose of inhaled beta2 agonist (salbutamol). A total of 148 patients, mean age (+/- SD) 40.21 +/- 13.70 years, were enrolled into the study. At the end of the study there were significant improvements in FEV1 and PEFR (29% and 28% increase respectively from baseline values, p<0.000001). The mean total daily dose of inhaled salbutamol decreased significantly from prestudy values of 461 +/- 332 microg/day to 161 +/- 207 microg/day (p<0.000001). The mean eosinophil counts fell from 5.80 +/- 4.90% (+/- SD) to 4.84 +/- 4.42% (+/- SD) (p=0.02). Symptom scores improved significantly as did subjective assessment of discomfort. A total of 29 (19.6%) adverse events were reported, all of which were of mild to moderate intensity. Monotherapy with montelukast significantly improved parameters of asthma control. It was well tolerated with no reports of serious or severe adverse events.

Abstract
Vitiligo, particularly in darker skinned individuals, is a psychosocial disaster. With patient education, proper therapeutic selection and persistence, favorable repigmentation can be achieved in the majority of individuals with vitiligo. Attention to the activity state of the disease, the type, location and extent of the vitiligo must be carefully balanced against the patient's expectations, time commitment and assumption of risks. In this review, Dr Taneja succinctly summarizes the wide range of therapeutic options available today for the vitiligo patient.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluation of immunogenicity and acceptability of PRP-T vaccine among the Indian children. DESIGN Multicentric, open, parallel group, comparative study of Haemophilus influenzae type B vaccine, given as single (Group I) or associated (Group II) with DPT vaccine. SETTING Five different vaccination clinics. SUBJECTS 125 children between the age group of 18-24 months. PARAMETERS Measurement of (i) pre and post vaccination antibody titres of Haemophilus influenze type B specific antibody; (ii) Adverse events; and (iii) Tolerance as graded by the physician. RESULTS Prevaccination antibody levels were > 0.15 mcg/ml in 56.3% in Group I and 35.7% in Group II. Post-seroconversion was seen in 97% in Group II receiving single and all in Group II (P > 0.05). The vaccine was well tolerated. CONCLUSIONS The probability of subclinical infection or cross immunity is high in India. ACTHIB vaccine has a good immunogenicity and tolerance and association with DPT does not modify the immunogenicity of ACTHIB vaccine.

Abstract
Cord blood samples were estimated for serum fibronectin (Fn) by immunoelectrophoresis (IE) and enzyme linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA) in 250 newborn healthy and sick infants classified into 6 categories: i.e., term appropriate for date (TAFD), preterm appropriate for date (PTAFD), term small for date (TSFD), preterm small for date (PTSFD), birth asphyxia (BA) and septicemia (SEP). TAFD infants were assayed for plasma Fn in addition. Comparison of Fn levels in the different groups by the Wilcoxan rank sum test indicated no significant difference between term and preterm infants, between PTAFD and PTSFD, TAFD and TSFD and in infants with and without birth asphyxia. Babies with septicemia had a significantly (P < 0.01) lower Fn level (29.97 +/- 29.03 mg/l) than those with no septicemia (42.77 +/- 30.20 mg/l). TAFD infants had Fn levels (serum 41.44 +/- 31.08 mg/l, plasma 85.20 +/- 33.38 mg/l) that are less than half the levels reported in the Western literature for newborn term infants. A possible cause could be the associated medical problems in mothers as 41 per cent of mothers of TAFD infants had conditions such as pregnancy induced hypertension, gestational diabetes, rheumatic heart disease, infection etc.

Abstract
We show that an appropriate variable transformation can redistribute the sample points for the field in the collocation method such that the numerical accuracy of the field-propagation algorithm improves significantly. We also present results for some specific transformations that improve the accuracy by more than 2 orders of magnitude.

Abstract
Twenty nine patients of acute and chronic leukemia undergoing chemotherapy and receiving blood transfusions (BT) and platelet transfusions (PT) from random donors (3-20 PT from 4-56 donors) were followed up for alloimmunisation using the platelet immunofluorescence test. Two women patients aged 65 and 28 yr reacted positive. Both patients had received multiple BT but no PT at the time of testing. Both were parous women. Our results point to the need to test for alloimmunisation prior to starting PT in parous women who have received multiple BT, although a study on larger number of patients is necessary for confirmation.

Abstract
We extend an earlier proposed matrix method for the analysis of cylindrically symmetric arbitrary refractive-index profile optical fibers to calculate the propagation constant and leakage/absorption loss of modes. This method involves only straightforward multiplications of 2 x 2 matrices and is highly attractive, since no complex plane iterations are performed even to obtain leakage or absorption losses. Thus the method is ideally suited for implementation on desktop computers. The applicability of the method has been shown through calculations of propagation constants and leakage loss of the LP(01) mode in depressed inner clad fibers.

Abstract
The collocation method developed earlier for propagating beams through optical waveguides is unstable for moderately large values of the extrapolation interval. A new procedure is presented to solve the matrix propagation equation in a method that is unconditionally stable for arbitrarily large extrapolation intervals. The new method uses the Fresnel approximation. The numerical performance of the new formulation is compared with that of the original method and with the propagating-beam method.
