Item A clinicopathological study of histomorphological differentiation and staging of lymph node metastasis in periampullary carcinoma(Medip Academy, 2024-07) Chakraborty, R.; Chandanwale, S.; Gore, C.; Londhe, M. S.Background: The periampullary region is an anatomically and histologically complex area that is prone towards malignant transformation. Malignancies in this region have increased in incidence in the last few decades. Classifying these malignancies has become crucial for prognosis and treatment. With the pancreato-biliary type being more aggressive as compared to the intestinal type. Lymph node metastasis and lymph node ratio also aid in prognostication. Methods: This prospective descriptive study was conducted over one year from August 2022 on 30 patients diagnosed with periampullary tumors who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy and biopsy. Histopathological classification and prognostic factors were analyzed based on Kimura et al classification. Results: The study included 18 males and 12 females with a mean age of 53.47 years. The origin of the tumor was the head of the pancreas in 66.66% (n=20) of the patients. Adenocarcinoma was the most common histological type. The pancreato-biliary type of adenocarcinoma was more aggressive than the intestinal type when primary tumor size and staging were compared. Conclusions: Periampullary carcinomas are difficult to classify. Kimura et al classification is an important classification system that helps in the treatment and prognostication of the patient. The pancreato-biliary type of adenocarcinoma is more aggressive as compared to the intestinal type. Lymph node metastasis and lymph node ratio are also important prognostic factors.Item Rooftop Gardening: Estimation of Income from a Score of Socio-Ecological Variables(SCIENCEDOMAIN international, 2020-08) Mondal, K.; Acharya, S. K.; Pal, A.; Haque, M.; Chakraborty, R.Aims: To study the relationship of total income was incurred from the rooftop gardening with various socio economic and behavioural aspects and elicit the future opportunity for this innovative method in this global warming situation where the world is facing the increasing crisis of availability of the land resources, support sustainability, contamination of ground water, food accessibility, and economic sustainability. Study Design: The locale was selected by purposive sampling technique and the respondents following rooftop gardening had been interacted and was selected by the snowball sampling method. Place and Duration of Study: The study was carried out during 2017 and 2018. The place, Janai Road of Srirampur, Khanakul-I and Khanakul-II block of Hooghly district, Budge Budge-II, Bishnupur-I and Bishnupur-II of South 24 Parganas and various areas in Kolkata were selected for the study. Methodology: In this present study 50 respondents following rooftop gardens have been interacted and are selected by the snowball sampling method. A semi-structured schedule has been administered to generate women information regarding family composition, the rationale for opting rooftop gardening, the ecological views on roof gardening, and the cost opportunity analysis. The gathered data had been put into multivariate analysis (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences V20.0 (SPSS) of IBM was used for analyzing the Coefficient of Correlation, Stepwise Regression and Path Analysis). Results: Education (X2), rooftop area (X4), diversity of plants (X6), labour charges (X8), organic manure (X11), fertilizer (X13) variables have been found to exert strong and determining contribution to total income. Respondents revealed that it had provided a certain amount of income in addition to the conventional farming income. Conclusion: The study had revealed that Rooftop gardening is not only eco-friendly horticulture but also a successful enterprise, having all the three critical echelons viz. economy, ecology, and equity as well.
