Item ABO blood group and small pox.(1965-09-01) Bhattacharyya, L M; Sengupta, D N; Pain, G C; Bose, D K; Mukherjee, S; Mondal, AItem Acute abdominal pain in gynaecology.(1990-10-01) Vaid, N B; Mukherjee, S; Gupta, AFifty female patients with acute abdominal pain were studied. High risk factors helping in clinical diagnosis were evaluated and 7(14%) cases with clear cut surgical indications were immediately operated on while 43 (86%) were kept under active observation. In doubtful cases, culdoscopy and diagnostic laparoscopy were found to be helpful in confirming the diagnosis and another 26% were operated later on. The delay in surgery did not increase the morbidity and mortality and only one patient (2%) underwent unnecessary laparotomy. Hence, it was concluded that active observation in cases of acute abdominal pain of doubtful origin is a safe and effective approach.Item Acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy following plasmodium vivax malaria.(2004-03-08) Chakravarty, A; Ghosh, B; Bhattacharyya, R; Sengupta, S; Mukherjee, SItem Adult Wilms' tumour (report of two cases).(1997-07-01) Singh, V P; Kannan, N; Lakhtakia, R; Sarma, Y S; Mukherjee, S; Mukhopadhyay, H G; Bhopte, A GWilms' tumour, an embryonic neoplasm, the most common renal tumour in childhood, had occasionally been reported in adults. Authors report two such cases and have reviewed the relevant literature. While Wilm's tumour in children classically demonstrates the curative potential of combined modality treatment, no such clear guide lines are available for those occurring during adulthood. Pathologic diagnosis of adult Wilm's tumour is difficult because of the multiplicity of undifferentiated adult tumours that must be considered in the differential diagnosis. As no predictive parameters for optimal therapy exist, a combination of surgery, irradiation and chemotherapy probably is indicated for all stages of disease.Item AIDS today.(1993-12-01) Mukherjee, S; Kar, MItem Anaesthesia-related maternal mortality.(2006-06-25) Rudra, A; Mondal, M; Acharya, A; Nayak, S; Mukherjee, SComplications of anaesthesia leading to death in young pregnant women might be prevented if more experienced personnel could be entrusted with the job. The contribution of anaesthesia to maternal mortality in the United Kingdom is 1.7 per million pregnancies with almost similar incidence from United States. The commonest single factor responsible for anaesthesia-related death is difficult or failed intubation. A pregnant woman with a potentially difficult airway should receive aspiration prophylaxis (mechanical or pharmacological) as soon as operative delivery is anticipated. Anaesthetists should make a plan that comes into effect as soon as failure to view the larynx or to intubate the trachea becomes evident. Unsuspected difficult airway can be managed if the skill of the anaesthetists is of high standard. Pulmonary aspiration is one cause of death in obstetric anaesthesia. Regurgitation and vomiting prevention can minimise pulmonary aspiration. In regional anaesthesia, local anaesthetics toxicity is another cause of concern. This should be tackled with some safe local anaesthetics. Preventing a high spinal or epidural block involves ways to detect inadvertent injection of local anaesthetic into the cerebrospinal fluid. Postoperative care after anaesthesia in obstetric cases is very important.Item Angiographic pattern of coronary artery disease in unstable angina.(1986-01-01) Kaul, U; Kalra, G S; Manchanda, S C; Wasir, H S; Mukherjee, S; Rajani, M; Bhatia, M LItem Antibiotic sensitivity of Vibrio cholerae other than O serotype 1 (so-called NAG vibrios).(1974-04-01) Sanyal, S C; Mukherjee, S; Sil, JItem Atrial fibrillation, stroke and anticoagulation.(2002-09-09) Roy, D; Mukherjee, S; Chakravarty, AItem beta-blockers in clinical medicine.(1978-01-16) Mukherjee, SItem Bilateral basal ganglia haemorrhage--uncommon manifestation of methanol poisoning.(1996-11-01) Ganguly, G; Banerjee, A; Mukherjee, S; Das, S K; Maity, BItem Bone in intestinal polyp-a curious observation.(2013-10) Bhawna, J B; Datta, S; Mukherjee, S; Banerjee, UWe report rare phenomena of ossification in benign colon polyp. An adult woman presented with occasional bleeding per rectum for which she was investigated. A polypoid rectal swelling was detected and histolopathology revealed an inflammatory polyp with osteoid formation. The case is presented for its rarity and available literature is reviewed.Item Brain weight and head circumference in fetus, infant and children of different nutritional and socio-economic groups.(1970-06-01) Parekh, U C; Pherwani, A; Udani, P M; Mukherjee, SItem A case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with bone involvement.(1996-04-01) Das, T; Mukherjee, S; Chowdhury, UItem Certain alterations in protein & lipid metabolisms by food tannins in normal & hemolytic anemic rats.(1979-10-01) Roy, S N; Mukherjee, SItem Changes in lipid composition and some biologically important enzyme activities in the microsomal membranes of developing toad ovary in different seasons.(1989-06-01) Mukherjee, S; Sen, P CThe microsomal membranes isolated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation from developing toad ovary have been found to differ significantly in lipid composition and various enzyme activities in different seasons. All the enzymes studied, viz. Na+, K(+)-ATPase, delta 5-3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (delta 5-3 beta HSD) and prostaglandin synthetase, exhibited maximum activity during the breeding season (July-September) at all stages of development (a,b,c & d). The activities of Na+, K(+)-ATPase and delta 5-3 beta HSD increased with development while that of prostaglandin synthetase followed the reverse order. The total phospholipid, cholesterol and fatty acid contents also varied with season and development. The increase in Na+, K(+)-ATPase and delta 5-3 beta HSD activities in the microsomal membranes of toad ovary at breeding season is accompanied with concomitant increase in phospholipid and unsaturated fatty acid contents at different stages in this season, thereby suggesting some correlation between them.Item Changing trends in hypertension.(1999-03-01) Mukherjee, SItem Characteristics of gastric malignancy in eastern India.(2001-05-13) Bhattacharya, S; Gupta, A; Kole, S; Ghosh, D K; Banerjee, M; Mukherjee, S; Mazumder, D NItem Cholera epidemics (1964-1965) in Brahmaputra Valley of Assam.(1970-11-01) Saha, A L; Pain, G C; Chowdhury, K; Mukherjee, S; Basu, B KItem Clinical profile of myasthenia gravis.(1998-11-07) Saha, S P; Mukherjee, S; Das, S K; Ganguly, P K; Roy, T N; Maiti, B; Bhattacharya, S; Sarkar, SSeventy three patients with myasthenia gravis were studied over 9 years period (1987-1995) in departments of neuromedicine, respiratory care unit, cardiothoracic unit of Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research and Bangur Institute of Neurology, Calcutta, with reference to their clinical presentations, laboratory findings and various modes of treatment. Commonest age of presentation was 5th decade in men and 3rd decade in women. Fifty five percent of patients belong to type 2A myasthenia gravis (Osserman classification). Presentation was insidious (67.2%) and course was slowly progressive (65.7%) in majority of cases. Fatigability and ptosis were commonest clinical presentation and diurnal variation was noticed in 60% of cases. Edrophonium test was positive in 90.4% of cases and repetitive nerve stimulation showed 93.5% positivity in 30 cases. 27 patients (36.9%) underwent thymectomy and out of these, 89% of patients showed hyperplastic change and thymoma in 11% of cases. Mortality rate including both operated and nonoperated patients was recorded to be 9.6%. We observed earlier onset of myasthenia in male, higher incidence of oculo-bulbar involvement and lower incidence of respiratory problem and thymoma.
