Item Absorption, excretion & tissue concentrations of antifungal antibiotic, hamycin.(1974-05-01) Phatak, M G; Sharma, R C; Mohapatra, L NItem Accuracy of self reporting malaria in Orissa--a case study.(1994-12-01) Kumar, A; Sharma, R CFor rapid assessment of malaria in difficult forested areas in Orissa a study on the accuracy of self-reporting of malaria showed 72 per cent accuracy along with the sensitivity and specificity values of 46 per cent and 76 per cent respectively. The study clearly indicates its utility in the ongoing national malaria eradication programme and can be effectively used for rapid assessment of the disease prevalence. The information so gathered can be used for rapid assessment by the planners and programme managers in devising the strategies for the containment of malaria in the forested areas of Orissa.Item Addison's disease presenting as depression.(2003-06-27) Kaushik, M L; Sharma, R CItem An analysis of medicines of undisclosed composition for asthma or rheumatoid arthritis.(1984-04-01) Basu, N; Sharma, R C; Gupta, S KItem Anti-inflammatory activity of the oil isolated from Cyperus scariosus (R. Br.).(1972-01-01) Gupta, S K; Sharma, R C; Aggarwal, O P; Arora, R BItem Anti-inflammatory studies on a crystalline steroid isolated from Commiphora mukul.(1972-06-01) Arora, R B; Taneja, V; Sharma, R C; Gupta, S KItem Anticoagulant activity of Heraclenin.(1969-07-01) Mishra, K C; Sharma, R C; Sharma, Y N; Arora, R BItem Antioestrogenic activity of jatamansone semicarbazone.(1973-11-01) Agrawal, S S; Sharma, R C; Arora, R BItem An appraisal of pediatric dermatological emergencies.(2000-04-26) Sarkar, R; Basu, S; Patwari, A K; Sharma, R C; Dutta, A K; Sardana, KItem Bancroftian filariasis in Bagdogra town, district Darjeeling (West Bengal).(2002-06-11) Singh, Sukhvir; Bora, D; Sharma, R C; Datta, K KFilaria endemicity is probably gradually increasing over the years in Bagdogra town, district Darjeeling (West Bengal). Of 1511 night blood smears examined, 35 were found positive for Wuchereria bancrofti (mf rate 2.32%). The microfilaria (mf) rates for males and females were 2.84% and 1.79 % respectively. The age of these positives ranged from 5-45 years. The mf rate was highest (4.46%) in the age group of 20-29 years. All mf carriers were local residents of Bagdogra and Wuchereria bancrofti was only the infection encountered. Mean microfilaria density was 7.71 per 20 cmm. of blood, whereas Median microfilaria density (MFD50) was 21 per 20 cmm. of blood. Disease and filarial endemicity rates were 0.33% and 2.65% respectively. Ten man hour vector mosquito density ranged from 30 to 65. Out of 49 female Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes dissected for the presence of filaria infection, none was found positive for the infection. During 1976 survey in the same town, mf rate was 1.6% and disease rate was nil.Item Battle Physical Efficiency Tests in the Indian Armed Forces. A clinical, electrocardiographic and biochemical evaluation.(1966-08-16) Malhotra, R P; Sachar, R S; Sharma, R C; Singh, K; Sudan, MItem Breeding habitats and larval indices of Aedes aegypti (L) in residential areas of Rajahmundry town, Andhra Pradesh.(2002-03-30) Kumar, R Ravi; Kamal, S; Patnaik, S K; Sharma, R CEntomological studies on relative prevalence and distribution of adults and immatures of Aedes aegypti were conducted in Rajahmundry town of Andhra Pradesh from December 1998 to November 1999. Adults and immature stages of Aedes aegypti were found in all the 22 localities viz; posh area (8), mixed area (8) and slum area (6) of the town. Larval indices were found to be higher in slum areas as compared to mixed or posh areas of the town. However, the larval habitats were observed to be similar in all localities. The larval indices were highest during monsoon and post-monsoon months. The breeding preference ratio (BPR) was highest for cement tubs followed by discarded tyres and barrels. The high larval indices of Aedes aegypti in these areas warrant intensification of vector surveillance activities along with source reduction and health education.Item Contact dermatitis due to Parthenium hysterophorus.(1978-09-01) Siddiqui, M A; Singh, R; Sharma, R CItem DDT levels in human fat samples in Delhi area.(1979-12-01) Bhaskaran, M; Sharma, R C; Bhide, N KItem Diarrhoeal diseases amongst children under five. A study in rural Alwar.(1992-09-01) Singh, J; Gowriswari, D; Chavan, B R; Patiat, R A; Debnath, A C; Jain, D C; Sharma, R S; Sharma, R C; Datta, K KA house to house survey was done in three villages of district Alwar covering 875 children under five years age. Two week incidence of diarrhoea morbidity was 2.27 episodes/child/year taking into consideration the seasonal correction factor. The incidence decreased with increase of age. Incidence was found significantly more in children of illiterate mother (p < 0.05). Children of poor socio-economic conditions as determined by occupational status (labourers) suffered significantly more often from diarrhoea as compared to children of higher socio-economic status (agriculturist and others). Fifty per cent episodes of diarrhoea were treated with antibiotics, and only one child was given ORS. It is a matter of concern. About 3.7 per cent mothers washed their hands before preparing meals while, 1.6 per cent washed their hands after toilet. Only 2 per cent mothers had the knowledge of preparing the home made salt sugar solution. An intensive health education campaign is therefore, necessary for health professionals as well as mothers.Item Difference in antibody response between orbital and systemic sensitization (an experimental study).(1986-01-01) Nath, K; Sharma, R C; Gogi, RItem Dinitrochlorobenzene contact sensitization in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.(1986-04-01) Sharma, T N; Jain, N K; Sharma, R C; Purohit, S D; Sarkar, S KItem Early development of acute filariasis in a migrant from non-endemic to hyper endemic area: a case report.(1998-06-23) Koya, S M; Kumar, S; Regu, K; Sharma, R CA case report of a European woman who contracted filariasis after staying for a few weeks in a filaria endemic area of south India is presented in this paper.Item Effect of some fractions of Commiphora mukul on various serum lipid levels in hypercholesterolemic chicks and their effectiveness in myocardial infarction in rats.(1973-05-01) Arora, R B; Das, D; Kapoor, S C; Sharma, R CItem EMI scan in the management of orbital disease.(1984-09-01) Boparai, M S; Sharma, R C; Ranjan, B; Dash, R G
