The aim of the present study is to identify the volatile, bioactive phytoconstituents present in the ethanolic extract of the leaves of Glochidion ellipticum Wt. (Euphorbiaceae) was carried out by using GC-MS analysis, while mass spectra of the compounds found in the extract was matched with the National Institute of Standards and Technology and Wiley library. Twenty seven components from leaves of the above said plant were identified. The active principles with their retention time, molecular formula, molecular weight and concentration (%) in the ethanol extract of leaf of G. ellipticum are obtained. This is the first report of documentation of active constituents from leaves of Glochidion ellipticum. The research reveals the potential of G. ellipticum leaves as a good source of bioactive compounds such as esters, ethers, alkaloids, alkenes, fatty alcohols, terpenoids, amines, porphyrin and silicon compounds that justify the use of this plant for its various ailments by traditional...

One of the problematic aspects of palliative-hospice care is pharmaceutical providing of the patients at specialized institutions, hospices. The relevance of the work is due to the lack of research about the medicineconsumption by patients at the hospice in Ukraine. Therefore the aim of the research was to study the range, cost, prescription frequency and the cost of patient pharmacotherapy at the hospice.The methods of content and frequency analysis and also,the integrated ABC/FMR/VED-analysis were used for the study.At the first research stagewere analyzed the clinical and basic statistical characteristics of hospice patients. At the second stage, the integrated ABC/FMR/VED analysis of prescribed drugs has been conducted. Then the definition of frequently prescribed medications and main therapeutic groups, using frequency analysis,hasbeen performed. The final step is the calculation of patients pharmacotherapy cost and the individual therapeutic medicationgroups.The analysis of clinical and statistical characteristics of hospice patients has showed that 75.6% of patients at the hospice were women and 48.9% of all diseases present were cardiovascular diseases. 139 medicinal products have...

Worldwide, hypertension represents one of the most common complications of pregnancy. Hypertensive disorders continue to occur globally, complicating 5-20% of pregnancies. Its incidence varies from 2 to 8% of pregnancies in developed countries reaching 10% or more in developing countries. Hypertension in pregnancy is defined as systolic blood pressure (sBP) ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure (dBP) ≥ 90 mmHg, or by ↑ in sBP ≥ 30 mmHg, or in dBP ≥15 mmHg from preconception or first trimester blood pressure confirmed by two measurings 6 hours apart. It is associated with high rates of perinatal morbidity and mortality and is the third most common cause of maternal death worldwide. The present study was designed to analyze the physicians prescribing pattern of various antihypertensives, a drug utilization study of both qualitative and quantitative variants, also describing physician’s compliance with existing guidelines. The greatest challenge in treating hypertension in pregnancy is to reduce the blood pressure to assure the safety of mother and at the same time not to compromise...

This study investigates the imaging characteristics of testicular tumors through the use of Doppler sonography, emphasizing its significance as a first-line, non-invasive diagnostic modality for the evaluation of testicular masses. Testicular tumors represent a significant clinical concern due to their potential malignancy and impact on male reproductive health. High-resolution ultrasonography combined with color and spectral Doppler imaging, offers comprehensive insights into both the morphological structure and vascularity of testicular lesions. This dual approach enhances the clinician’s ability to distinguish between benign and malignant pathologies. The study presents a detailed analysis of seven clinically suspected cases of testicular tumors, encompassing a range of histopathological types such as lymphoma, sex cord-stromal tumors, and various non-seminomatous germ cell tumors (including yolk sac tumors, embryonal carcinomas, teratomas, and mixed germ cell tumors), as well as seminomas. Sonographic features observed in malignant tumors include heterogeneous echotexture, increased internal vascularity, and the presence of retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy, which are key indicators of aggressive disease. The findings demonstrate that Doppler ultrasound is not only effective in the...

Background: Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder which results in significant morbidity. Epilepsy accounts for a significant proportion of the world’s disease burden, affecting around 50 million people worldwide. Aims: In this study, evaluate anti-epileptic drug for seizure control in Emergency room and effectiveness of various anti-epileptic drugs in terms of time to Seizure control. To assess the treatment satisfaction measured using the Treatment Satisfaction with Medicines Questionnaire (SATMED-Q). Materials & Methods: A Prospective observational study of 18 months duration carried out in patients presenting with seizure at Emergency department during the study period. The study began after the approval of study protocol by the Institutional Review Board. Statistical analysis was done using Microsoft Excel Office 2019 and rechecked with SPSS (version 25.0). P value <0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Result: Total 121 patients presented with seizure in Emergency, were recruited in the study during study period. About 98 patients completed the study and 23 were lost to follow-up. Out of 121 patients 80 (66%) were males and...
