Reported literature suggested the need for research for assessing the correlates of both quality of life along with depression in diabetic persons. Aims: To assess the quality of life (QOL), the prevalence of depression and associated factors in diabetic patients attending the lifestyle clinic of a tertiary healthcare facility in Eastern India. Settings and Design: This hospital-based descriptive, cross-sectional research recruited 219 patients with diabetes to assess the QOL and depression in the lifestyle clinic of a tertiary healthcare facility. Methods and Materials: The quality of life was assessed with the help of the World Health Organization (WHO) QOL BREF instrument. Depression was determined by a standardized Patient Health Questionnaire - 9(PHQ-9). The sociodemographic and diabetes-related information were collected by a semistructured questionnaire. Clinical and anthropometric examinations were conducted. Statistical Analysis Used: All the available data were initially coded and then analyzed using the SPSS 22.0 licensed software. Results: The participants had a median age of 54 years. Illiteracy was significantly more among females. Hypertension was the most common comorbidity. Gender-wise difference in mean of weight, height, hip circumference, and QOL score in the psychosocial domain was significant. The mean QOL score was least in the social domain and highest in the environmental domain. Literate patients had a statistically significantly better QOL. Depression was observed significantly more in females, illiterates, and unemployed respondents. Conclusions: Diabetic women with lesser literacy have an increased risk of poor QOL. Women, illiterates, and the unemployed suffered more from depression. Therefore, a target-specific, routine, and well-planned clinic approach is needed to improve the QOL and mental health of respondents.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266195"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266195"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266195;

Multidrug resistance/rifampicin resistance (MDR/RR) TB remains a public health crisis . India has the highest burden of tuberculosis and multidrug resistant TB (MDR TB) in the world. There is wide geographical variation in the epidemic and its trends that can be updated by regular reporting and sound surveillance systems. The current study tries to fill this gap by analyzing the data of TB patients from a Tuberculosis Unit, studying socio-demographic and clinical profile from December 2017 to November 2019 in Nadia district of West Bengal. Aims: The aims of this work were to study socio-demographic and clinical profile of TB patients attending Tuberculosis Unit of West Bengal, and to find out factors associated with drug-resistant TB. Settings and Design: Record-based study from Tuberculosis Unit. Methods: Records of all patients who undergo CBNAAT in TU are stored as monthly unit. We randomly selected 10 months from a period of December 2017 to November 2019 by using lot method. Data of all patients undergoing CBNAAT at Kalyani – Gayeshpur Tuberculosis Unit during randomly selected 10 months were accessed. Statistical Analysis Used: Monthly data was entered in Microsoft Excel and descriptive tests of significance, proportions and Chi-square were applied. Results: There was male preponderance for testing of tuberculosis. Seven percent of the TB suspects were HIV positive. The positivity rate of MTB by CBNAAT was 23%. Four percent of the samples were Rifampicin resistance. Tobacco consumption, contact with TB case and Diabetes were common risk factors of TB. Most of the information was missing in the records. Conclusions: Most of Rifampicin Resistant cases showed very low Ct value in CBNAAT. Previous history of TB treatment and positive HIV status was significantly associated with RR TB. There is a need to capture complete information on the records of presumptive TB cases.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266194"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266194"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266194; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=95266194]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=95266194]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266194; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='95266194']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=95266194]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":95266194,"title":"Status of drug resistant tuberculosis among patients attending a tuberculosis unit of West Bengal: A record based cross-sectional study","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/95266194/Status_of_drug_resistant_tuberculosis_among_patients_attending_a_tuberculosis_unit_of_West_Bengal_A_record_based_cross_sectional_study","owner_id":29935138,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":29935138,"first_name":"Gandhari","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Basu","page_name":"GandhariBasu","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2015-04-19T22:44:00.281-07:00","display_name":"Gandhari Basu","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/GandhariBasu"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="95266193"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/95266193/Care_Givers_Knowledge_and_Practice_On_Routine_Immunization_among_12_23_months_children_in_a_Rural_Community_of_West_Bengal"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Care Givers Knowledge and Practice On Routine Immunization among 12 -23 months children in a Rural Community of West Bengal" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/97495021/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/95266193/Care_Givers_Knowledge_and_Practice_On_Routine_Immunization_among_12_23_months_children_in_a_Rural_Community_of_West_Bengal">Care Givers Knowledge and Practice On Routine Immunization among 12 -23 months children in a Rural Community of West Bengal</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Childhood immunization is the most successful and cost-effective public health intervention.

It is one of the best indicators to evaluate the health outcomes and services distributed across social and economic groups. A descriptive, cross sectional study was done in a rural block among 210 children between 12-23 months and their care givers for duration of 9 months with the objectives of assessment of their knowledge and practice on different aspects of immunization. WHO 30 cluster sampling method was used. Results revealed 82.9% were Hindus, 14.8% were illiterate, 67.1% deliveries were institutional. The male : female children ratio was 3:2. Polio and measles were mostly heard one. One third of the care-givers knew the correct dose of measles vaccination whereas only 4.8% and 7.1% had the right knowledge of three doses for OPV and DPT. Fever (54.3%) and diarrhea (24.8%) cited as main side effects of vaccination. Lack of information, long distance, sick baby on the day of immunization were reported as main reasons of incomplete immunization. The coverage for majority of vaccines was above 90%. Immunization status had significant association with religion, literacy status and place of delivery. Appropriate information, dissemination and aggressive campaigning on immunization is the need of the hour.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="279dbbd9f21d21f59e3b7db0936f1150" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":97495021,"asset_id":95266193,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/97495021/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266193"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266193"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266193;

Aims and Objectives: The present research aimed to investigate and compare the respiratory health profile and the factors associated among the beedi workers and non-beedi workers. Materials and Methods: An analytical, community based, cross sectional study was conducted among 60 female beedi and non-beedi workers. Multistage sampling was used to select three wards out of twenty wards under a municipality of the study district. After interview with a pre-designed structured questionnaire, the respondents were examined clinically and pulmonary function test was done using a portable spirometer. Results: All beedi workers were married and 23.3% were illiterate. Most of them had 1to 10 years exposure. Half of them initiated their work between 11 to 20 years. Rate of tobacco smoking, obesity, hypertension, asthma, diabetes was high among beedi workers.

This increase is attributed to the rapid epidemiological transition accompanied by urbanization and changes in the life style, which is occurring in India. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in the Department of Biochemistry of Calcutta National Medical College among the patients who were doing first time blood examination for diagnosis of diabetes. The objective of this study was to assess socio-demographic profile and risk factors associated with the diabetic patients. Prevalence of diabetes was more (63.6%) among those who had BMI (Body Mass Index) 25 or more, where as the proportion of diabetes was less among the persons having BMI less than 18.5. This association was found to be statistically significant (χ2 = 32.78, df = 2 p = 0.0001). Prevalence of diabetes was also high among persons consuming tobacco (34.5%) (χ2 = 14.76, df = 1, p = 0.0001) ...</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="f37d4e2bbbdeaa42f9c0934aef86de36" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":97495022,"asset_id":95266189,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/97495022/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266189"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266189"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266189;

Aims: To find out the prevalence, reasons and the associated factors for using injectable contraceptive among the women of reproductive age group. Settings and Design: A sub-centre-based observational, cross sectional survey was conducted among 212 reproductive age group women living in the rural areas of a district, West Bengal. Methods and Material: A multi-stage cluster random sampling technique was done considering villages as the cluster to get the required sample. Totally, 212 reproductive age group women were chosen from a total of 16 villages, selected by simple random sampling. Information regarding study variables was collected by direct interview of the respondents by visiting individual houses with help of a pre-designed, semi-structured proforma. Strict confidentiality and anonimousity were maintained throughout the study. Statistical Analysis Used: Data were analysed with SPSS 22.0 (licensed). Mean, median, proportion were used for quantitative variables whereas qualitative attributes were presented by proportion. Associations between dependent and independent variables were tested by Chi-square test. Results: The proportion of teenage marriage was unexpectedly high. More than half mothers were unwilling to have babies in future. One-third of study population used injectable contraceptive, ASHA was the main suggestion provider in choosing the method. The major reasons of use were discomfort in previous method and suggestion of service provider. Irregular menstrual problem and easy maintenance was the commonest cause of dissatisfaction and satisfaction, respectively. Conclusions: Use of injectable contraceptive must be sincerely promoted through social marketing and the front line health workers should motivate the women to use it by providing correct information.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266188"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266188"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266188;

An observational, descriptive, cross sectional epidemiological study was carried out primarily to determine the prevalence of musculoskeletal and other health problems, to find out the association between musculoskeletal problems with occupational and socio demographic factors. Two slum areas of Kolkata were selected randomly from a total of 6 slums of Chetla region, Kolkata. Data were collected from 172 workers of garment industry at household level. Interviewing and examination was done with help of pretested, predesigned, semi structured schedule after obtaining informed verbal consent. Focus group discussions were arranged to assess their felt needs. 63.4% were in 15-44 years age group, 70.3% were literate. Addiction was noted in 73.8%. Musculoskeletal disorders were most prevalent (78.5%) followed by hyperacidity and heartburn (23.3%).Neck (60.7%) most commonly involved. Education, income and years, hours and nature of work had significant (P<.05) association with musculoskeletal problem. Regular home visit of the health functionaries along with medicine and improved referral services emerged as important felt need. Patient hearing and genuine will power through participatory health program is the need of the hour for tackling different morbidities and related felt needs.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="4b18fee394cfc485ef911a3ffffcae72" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":97495024,"asset_id":95266186,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/97495024/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266186"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266186"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266186;

C Trachomatis and E Coli are the two commonest causative organism worldwide. A total number of eleven cases of testicular abscesses had been reviewed for a period of one and half years. It was seen that, the cases mainly present with complaint of acute scrotum with discharging pus and acute abdomen. Mean age of the patients under study is around 53 yrs. Ultrasonography used for diagnosis. In two third cases epididymoorchitis history was obtained. Regarding growth pattern of pus, it was found that identifying bacterial pathogens are found in seven case where as no growth was found in rest. E coli was found to be the commonest pathogen in culture isolate. One patient of chronic testicular abscess, who was on treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis; pus culture revealed AFB to be causative bacteria. Only a single case of acute testicular abscess was found to have seropositivity for HIV virus, his pus culture was notably negative for any other bacterial pathogen. One out of the 7 cases of acute testicular abscess and 2 of the 4 cases of chronic testicular abscess were found to have type II DM. Orchiectomy and broad spectrum antibiotics were used as mainstay of treatment.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="4efafa0c1be4232961b3cfb017aa883a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":97495020,"asset_id":95266185,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/97495020/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266185"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266185"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266185;

Studies reveal that tobacco abuse is rising in this age group in India. A cross sectional survey was carried out in two coeducational high schools of Anandanagar village of Singur block, Hooghly district, West Bengal among 276 students of VIII-IX standard to study the knowledge and abuse of tobacco and to find out influencing socio-demographic factors. Knowledge score was higher in females, students from nuclear families, and those with literate parents. Low prevalence of tobacco intake was obtained among the students, with 9.8% reported having ever used smokeless tobacco and 4.3% ever smoked. Tobacco intake was higher among those with a history of parental tobacco intake. Continued information education and communication (IEC) activities should be conducted by the school authorities, with involvement of nongovernment organizations (NGOs) and parents for primary prevention.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266182"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266182"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266182; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=95266182]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=95266182]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266182; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='95266182']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=95266182]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":95266182,"title":"Tobacco abuse among school going adolescents in a rural area of West Bengal, India","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/95266182/Tobacco_abuse_among_school_going_adolescents_in_a_rural_area_of_West_Bengal_India","owner_id":29935138,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":29935138,"first_name":"Gandhari","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Basu","page_name":"GandhariBasu","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2015-04-19T22:44:00.281-07:00","display_name":"Gandhari Basu","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/GandhariBasu"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="95266180"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/95266180/Socio_demographic_and_psychosocial_correlates_of_erectile_dysfunction_among_hypertensive_patients"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Socio-demographic and psychosocial correlates of erectile dysfunction among hypertensive patients" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/97495045/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/95266180/Socio_demographic_and_psychosocial_correlates_of_erectile_dysfunction_among_hypertensive_patients">Socio-demographic and psychosocial correlates of erectile dysfunction among hypertensive patients</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Comprehensive Psychiatry</span><span>, 2014</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">This cross-sectional study assessed the psychosocial and sociodemographic correlates of resilienc...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">This cross-sectional study assessed the psychosocial and sociodemographic correlates of resilience among older adults living with HIV.

Road traffic accidents are defined as a collision involving at least one vehicle in motion on a public or private road that results in at least one person being injured or killed. In this context, an epidemiological study was conducted in a teaching hospital of West Bengal for last one year for better understanding of the factors involved in road traffic accidents. The study population comprised of all the victims of road traffic accidents attending the emergency department during the study period. Total 355 gave full response with written informed consent and included in the study. Every one out of five subjects was male. Most were from 10-29years age group. Students (18.3%), skilled (21.9%) and unskilled worker (23.7%) by profession were found to be the major victims. More than half (55.5%) of the victims were involved in the two Wheeler accident. Among the all victims 25.92% were released after given first-aid and 48.73% were hospitalized. Half of the accident occurred in July-August and between 6 p.m. to 11p.m. The results ch. can be corroborated with further studies with more robust hypothesis.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="457c125a7908885a2edbec7d65da6a52" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":92127163,"asset_id":88080670,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/92127163/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="88080670"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="88080670"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 88080670;

Reported literature suggested the need for research for assessing the correlates of both quality of life along with depression in diabetic persons. Aims: To assess the quality of life (QOL), the prevalence of depression and associated factors in diabetic patients attending the lifestyle clinic of a tertiary healthcare facility in Eastern India. Settings and Design: This hospital-based descriptive, cross-sectional research recruited 219 patients with diabetes to assess the QOL and depression in the lifestyle clinic of a tertiary healthcare facility. Methods and Materials: The quality of life was assessed with the help of the World Health Organization (WHO) QOL BREF instrument. Depression was determined by a standardized Patient Health Questionnaire - 9(PHQ-9). The sociodemographic and diabetes-related information were collected by a semistructured questionnaire. Clinical and anthropometric examinations were conducted. Statistical Analysis Used: All the available data were initially coded and then analyzed using the SPSS 22.0 licensed software. Results: The participants had a median age of 54 years. Illiteracy was significantly more among females. Hypertension was the most common comorbidity. Gender-wise difference in mean of weight, height, hip circumference, and QOL score in the psychosocial domain was significant. The mean QOL score was least in the social domain and highest in the environmental domain. Literate patients had a statistically significantly better QOL. Depression was observed significantly more in females, illiterates, and unemployed respondents. Conclusions: Diabetic women with lesser literacy have an increased risk of poor QOL. Women, illiterates, and the unemployed suffered more from depression. Therefore, a target-specific, routine, and well-planned clinic approach is needed to improve the QOL and mental health of respondents.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266195"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266195"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266195;

Multidrug resistance/rifampicin resistance (MDR/RR) TB remains a public health crisis . India has the highest burden of tuberculosis and multidrug resistant TB (MDR TB) in the world. There is wide geographical variation in the epidemic and its trends that can be updated by regular reporting and sound surveillance systems. The current study tries to fill this gap by analyzing the data of TB patients from a Tuberculosis Unit, studying socio-demographic and clinical profile from December 2017 to November 2019 in Nadia district of West Bengal. Aims: The aims of this work were to study socio-demographic and clinical profile of TB patients attending Tuberculosis Unit of West Bengal, and to find out factors associated with drug-resistant TB. Settings and Design: Record-based study from Tuberculosis Unit. Methods: Records of all patients who undergo CBNAAT in TU are stored as monthly unit. We randomly selected 10 months from a period of December 2017 to November 2019 by using lot method. Data of all patients undergoing CBNAAT at Kalyani – Gayeshpur Tuberculosis Unit during randomly selected 10 months were accessed. Statistical Analysis Used: Monthly data was entered in Microsoft Excel and descriptive tests of significance, proportions and Chi-square were applied. Results: There was male preponderance for testing of tuberculosis. Seven percent of the TB suspects were HIV positive. The positivity rate of MTB by CBNAAT was 23%. Four percent of the samples were Rifampicin resistance. Tobacco consumption, contact with TB case and Diabetes were common risk factors of TB. Most of the information was missing in the records. Conclusions: Most of Rifampicin Resistant cases showed very low Ct value in CBNAAT. Previous history of TB treatment and positive HIV status was significantly associated with RR TB. There is a need to capture complete information on the records of presumptive TB cases.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266194"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266194"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266194; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=95266194]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=95266194]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266194; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='95266194']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=95266194]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":95266194,"title":"Status of drug resistant tuberculosis among patients attending a tuberculosis unit of West Bengal: A record based cross-sectional study","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/95266194/Status_of_drug_resistant_tuberculosis_among_patients_attending_a_tuberculosis_unit_of_West_Bengal_A_record_based_cross_sectional_study","owner_id":29935138,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":29935138,"first_name":"Gandhari","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Basu","page_name":"GandhariBasu","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2015-04-19T22:44:00.281-07:00","display_name":"Gandhari Basu","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/GandhariBasu"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="95266193"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/95266193/Care_Givers_Knowledge_and_Practice_On_Routine_Immunization_among_12_23_months_children_in_a_Rural_Community_of_West_Bengal"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Care Givers Knowledge and Practice On Routine Immunization among 12 -23 months children in a Rural Community of West Bengal" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/97495021/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/95266193/Care_Givers_Knowledge_and_Practice_On_Routine_Immunization_among_12_23_months_children_in_a_Rural_Community_of_West_Bengal">Care Givers Knowledge and Practice On Routine Immunization among 12 -23 months children in a Rural Community of West Bengal</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Childhood immunization is the most successful and cost-effective public health intervention.

It is one of the best indicators to evaluate the health outcomes and services distributed across social and economic groups. A descriptive, cross sectional study was done in a rural block among 210 children between 12-23 months and their care givers for duration of 9 months with the objectives of assessment of their knowledge and practice on different aspects of immunization. WHO 30 cluster sampling method was used. Results revealed 82.9% were Hindus, 14.8% were illiterate, 67.1% deliveries were institutional. The male : female children ratio was 3:2. Polio and measles were mostly heard one. One third of the care-givers knew the correct dose of measles vaccination whereas only 4.8% and 7.1% had the right knowledge of three doses for OPV and DPT. Fever (54.3%) and diarrhea (24.8%) cited as main side effects of vaccination. Lack of information, long distance, sick baby on the day of immunization were reported as main reasons of incomplete immunization. The coverage for majority of vaccines was above 90%.

This increase is attributed to the rapid epidemiological transition accompanied by urbanization and changes in the life style, which is occurring in India. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in the Department of Biochemistry of Calcutta National Medical College among the patients who were doing first time blood examination for diagnosis of diabetes. The objective of this study was to assess socio-demographic profile and risk factors associated with the diabetic patients. Prevalence of diabetes was more (63.6%) among those who had BMI (Body Mass Index) 25 or more, where as the proportion of diabetes was less among the persons having BMI less than 18.5. This association was found to be statistically significant (χ2 = 32.78, df = 2 p = 0.0001). Prevalence of diabetes was also high among persons consuming tobacco (34.5%) (χ2 = 14.76, df = 1, p = 0.0001) ...</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="f37d4e2bbbdeaa42f9c0934aef86de36" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":97495022,"asset_id":95266189,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/97495022/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266189"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266189"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266189;

Aims: To find out the prevalence, reasons and the associated factors for using injectable contraceptive among the women of reproductive age group. Settings and Design: A sub-centre-based observational, cross sectional survey was conducted among 212 reproductive age group women living in the rural areas of a district, West Bengal. Methods and Material: A multi-stage cluster random sampling technique was done considering villages as the cluster to get the required sample. Totally, 212 reproductive age group women were chosen from a total of 16 villages, selected by simple random sampling. Information regarding study variables was collected by direct interview of the respondents by visiting individual houses with help of a pre-designed, semi-structured proforma. Strict confidentiality and anonimousity were maintained throughout the study. Statistical Analysis Used: Data were analysed with SPSS 22.0 (licensed). Mean, median, proportion were used for quantitative variables whereas qualitative attributes were presented by proportion. Associations between dependent and independent variables were tested by Chi-square test. Results: The proportion of teenage marriage was unexpectedly high. More than half mothers were unwilling to have babies in future. One-third of study population used injectable contraceptive, ASHA was the main suggestion provider in choosing the method. The major reasons of use were discomfort in previous method and suggestion of service provider. Irregular menstrual problem and easy maintenance was the commonest cause of dissatisfaction and satisfaction, respectively. Conclusions: Use of injectable contraceptive must be sincerely promoted through social marketing and the front line health workers should motivate the women to use it by providing correct information.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266188"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266188"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266188;

An observational, descriptive, cross sectional epidemiological study was carried out primarily to determine the prevalence of musculoskeletal and other health problems, to find out the association between musculoskeletal problems with occupational and socio demographic factors. Two slum areas of Kolkata were selected randomly from a total of 6 slums of Chetla region, Kolkata. Data were collected from 172 workers of garment industry at household level. Interviewing and examination was done with help of pretested, predesigned, semi structured schedule after obtaining informed verbal consent. Focus group discussions were arranged to assess their felt needs. 63.4% were in 15-44 years age group, 70.3% were literate. Addiction was noted in 73.8%. Musculoskeletal disorders were most prevalent (78.5%) followed by hyperacidity and heartburn (23.3%).Neck (60.7%) most commonly involved. Education, income and years, hours and nature of work had significant (P<.05) association with musculoskeletal problem. Regular home visit of the health functionaries along with medicine and improved referral services emerged as important felt need. Patient hearing and genuine will power through participatory health program is the need of the hour for tackling different morbidities and related felt needs.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="4b18fee394cfc485ef911a3ffffcae72" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":97495024,"asset_id":95266186,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/97495024/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266186"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266186"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266186;

C Trachomatis and E Coli are the two commonest causative organism worldwide. A total number of eleven cases of testicular abscesses had been reviewed for a period of one and half years. It was seen that, the cases mainly present with complaint of acute scrotum with discharging pus and acute abdomen. Mean age of the patients under study is around 53 yrs. Ultrasonography used for diagnosis. In two third cases epididymoorchitis history was obtained. Regarding growth pattern of pus, it was found that identifying bacterial pathogens are found in seven case where as no growth was found in rest. E coli was found to be the commonest pathogen in culture isolate. One patient of chronic testicular abscess, who was on treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis; pus culture revealed AFB to be causative bacteria. Only a single case of acute testicular abscess was found to have seropositivity for HIV virus, his pus culture was notably negative for any other bacterial pathogen. One out of the 7 cases of acute testicular abscess and 2 of the 4 cases of chronic testicular abscess were found to have type II DM. Orchiectomy and broad spectrum antibiotics were used as mainstay of treatment.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="4efafa0c1be4232961b3cfb017aa883a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":97495020,"asset_id":95266185,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/97495020/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266185"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266185"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266185;

Studies reveal that tobacco abuse is rising in this age group in India. A cross sectional survey was carried out in two coeducational high schools of Anandanagar village of Singur block, Hooghly district, West Bengal among 276 students of VIII-IX standard to study the knowledge and abuse of tobacco and to find out influencing socio-demographic factors. Knowledge score was higher in females, students from nuclear families, and those with literate parents. Low prevalence of tobacco intake was obtained among the students, with 9.8% reported having ever used smokeless tobacco and 4.3% ever smoked. Tobacco intake was higher among those with a history of parental tobacco intake. Continued information education and communication (IEC) activities should be conducted by the school authorities, with involvement of nongovernment organizations (NGOs) and parents for primary prevention.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="95266182"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="95266182"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266182; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=95266182]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=95266182]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 95266182; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='95266182']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=95266182]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":95266182,"title":"Tobacco abuse among school going adolescents in a rural area of West Bengal, India","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/95266182/Tobacco_abuse_among_school_going_adolescents_in_a_rural_area_of_West_Bengal_India","owner_id":29935138,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":29935138,"first_name":"Gandhari","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Basu","page_name":"GandhariBasu","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2015-04-19T22:44:00.281-07:00","display_name":"Gandhari Basu","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/GandhariBasu"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="95266180"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/95266180/Socio_demographic_and_psychosocial_correlates_of_erectile_dysfunction_among_hypertensive_patients"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Socio-demographic and psychosocial correlates of erectile dysfunction among hypertensive patients" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/97495045/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/95266180/Socio_demographic_and_psychosocial_correlates_of_erectile_dysfunction_among_hypertensive_patients">Socio-demographic and psychosocial correlates of erectile dysfunction among hypertensive patients</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Comprehensive Psychiatry</span><span>, 2014</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">This cross-sectional study assessed the psychosocial and sociodemographic correlates of resilienc...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">This cross-sectional study assessed the psychosocial and sociodemographic correlates of resilience among older adults living with HIV.

Road traffic accidents are defined as a collision involving at least one vehicle in motion on a public or private road that results in at least one person being injured or killed. In this context, an epidemiological study was conducted in a teaching hospital of West Bengal for last one year for better understanding of the factors involved in road traffic accidents. The study population comprised of all the victims of road traffic accidents attending the emergency department during the study period. Total 355 gave full response with written informed consent and included in the study. Every one out of five subjects was male. Most were from 10-29years age group. Students (18.3%), skilled (21.9%) and unskilled worker (23.7%) by profession were found to be the major victims. More than half (55.5%) of the victims were involved in the two Wheeler accident. Among the all victims 25.92% were released after given first-aid and 48.73% were hospitalized. Half of the accident occurred in July-August and between 6 p.m. to 11p.m. The results ch. can be corroborated with further studies with more robust hypothesis.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="457c125a7908885a2edbec7d65da6a52" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":92127163,"asset_id":88080670,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/92127163/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="88080670"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="88080670"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 88080670;

Written consent was obtained from their guardian. Blood was drawn from the neonates for estimating routine parameters and cultured for isolation of causative agents using standard protocol. Isolates were identified by staining and biochemical parameters.Results: The present study had 92 neonates, out of which 53 were male and 39 were female.
