Comparative Study Of Lipid Profile In Obese And Diabetic Patients Of Rural And Urban Areas Of Lahore.

by Hamad Ahmed | Dr. Raheela Akhtar | Dr. Qamar-un-Nisa | Prof. Dr.

Material type: book Book; Format: print ; Literary form: drama Publisher: 2013Dissertation note: Diabetes mellitus is dangerous condition predisposing to number of complications and deaths every year. Obesity and diabetes mellitus type-2 are interconnected conditions which share a number of pathophysiological mechanisms which leads to cardiovascular complications. Reliable estimate shows a elevated prevalence of CVD risk in Pakistan. Each fourth middle-aged adult in Pakistan is at risk of CAD. Present study was conducted with hypothesis diabetes and obesity is risk factor for dyslipidosis and coronary artery disease in humans. Patient were included on the basis of body mass index (BMI) Fasting Blood Glucose (FBS) and further confirmation was done on the basis of Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) According to BMI and diabetes status, study subjects were cassified in four groups: (Group A; obese and diabetic, Group B; non-obese and diabetic, Group C; obese and non-diabetic and Group D; non-obese and non-diabetic) and HbA1c, FBS, Lipid profile and ETT were performed. Analysis of results shows obesity and diabetes was the major cause of dyslipidemia, group A was the worst group dyslipidemia, group C with obesity was the second and group B was the least with dyslipidemia. While obesity and diabetes mellitus was the leading cause of cardiovascular risk 27.5%, 15%, 22.5% and 2.5% in all groups respectively as above.

Detection Of Brucella Species From Aborted Bovine Fetuses Using Amos Pcr And Immunohistochemistry

by Muhammad Naveed Anvar (2008-VA-310) | Dr. Raheela Akhtar | Dr. Gulbeeena Saleem | Dr. Jawad Nazir.

Material type: book Book; Format: print ; Literary form: not fiction Publisher: 2015Dissertation note: The economic importance and public health concern of bovine brucellosis enlist it in the world top priority disease to be eliminated by WHO (World Health Organization). Bovine brucellosis is caused by three Brucella species including B. abortus, B. melitensis and B. suis. Although the literature explains that the incidence of B. abortus is higher in bovines but still we need to know the prevalence of other species particularly B. melitensis in Pakistan due to its zoonotic aspect which makes it more important for study. Unfortunately in Pakistan the status of B. abortus and B. melitensis in bovines is unknown. It is need of hour to determine the exact prevalence of B. abortus and B. melitensis in bovines for disease eradication in animals, to control its transmission in humans and to determine the reasons behind vaccine failure in bovines. B. abortus and B. melitensis could be presents in aborted bovine samples. AMOS PCR can be better tool than immunohistochemistry for the detection of B. abortus and B. melitensis from aborted bovine samples. (Hypothesis) A total of 60 tissue samples (lung, liver and stomach) from aborted bovine fetuses were collected from farms with history of abortion and suspected brucellosis in and around Lahore district. The samples were subjected to AMOS PCR and immunohistochemistry for detection of B. abortus and B. melitensis. Brucella abortus and Brucella mellitensis species specific primer were used to get the desired base pair. The genomic region of B. abortus IS711was amplified at 498bp. From present study it can be concluded that brucellosis is present in cows and buffaloes at district Lahore and it is more in cattle as compared to buffaloes. Therefore an immediate actions and policies are required to be implemented for the preventing spread of the disease to the other animals and human. For the diagnosis of Brucella species AMOS PCR and immunohistochemistry were used and the results showed that Brucella abortus were more as compared to other species in aborted bovine tissues. The results also showed that the sensitivity and specificity of AMOS PCR is more than immunohistochemistry. Availability: Items available for loan: UVAS Library [Call number: 2320-T] (1).

Etiopathology Of Tuberculosis Complex In Antelopes And Its Cytokine Profile

by Maryam Saddiqa (2009-VA-366) | Dr. Raheela Akhtar | Dr. Muhammad Yasin Tipu | Dr. Ali Ahmed Sheikh.

Material type: book Book; Format: print ; Literary form: not fiction Publisher: 2016Dissertation note: Bovine tuberculosis is a contagious disease of domestic and wild animals with serious zoonotic effects in humans. The economic importance and public health concern of bovine tuberculosis enlist it in the world top priority disease to be eliminated by WHO (World Health Organization). Tuberculosis in antelopes is caused by Mycobacterium bovis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis & Mycobacterium avium. This disease in antelopes causes tremendous economic losses. Unfortunately in Pakistan no such study has been conducted on wildlife tuberculosis except one (Zeeshan 2007) his work was on the identification of one specie i.e. M.bovis in deer while this study was on the identification of three different types of species (Mycobacterium bovis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium avium). A total of 50 blood samples from tuberculosis suspected antelopes were collected. These samples were subjected to multiplex polymerase chain reaction (multiplex PCR) and cytokine ELISA to determine the etiopathology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. The results indicated that 10% and 4% of antelopes were positive for M.bovis, M.tuberculosis infection with multiplex PCR and cytokine ELISA respectively. From these results it is evident that polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is more sensitive than cytokine ELISA for the diagnosis Mycobacterium Tuberculosis complex (MTC) and it shows much higher percentage of positive cases. This study provided valuable information about the presence of M.bovis, M.tuberculosis and M.avium in different types of antelopes (Urial, Mouflon sheep, Black buck, Goral and Hog deer). The cytokine profile could be used as a diagnostic marker in future. Availability: Items available for loan: UVAS Library [Call number: 2549-T] (1).
