Case Report on Nevirapine Induced Exfoliative Dermatitis
Abstract: Nevirapine is the first drug of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) class to treat seropositive patients, administered along with protease inhibitors and/or NRTIs. Nevirapine binds directly to reverse transcriptase (RT) and blocks the RNA-dependent and DNA-dependent polymerase enzyme. Exfoliative dermatitis is wide spread erythema and scaling of skin caused by pre-existing skin disorders, drugs and cancer, unknown causes.

Dyslipidaemia and its Association with Fasting versus Non Fasting Lipid Profile Values
Abstract: Lipid profile is a panel of blood tests used as a screening tool for dyslipidaemia. Dyslipidaemia is defined as disturbances of cholesterol and triglyceride levels and recognized as risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. It includes total cholesterol, low density lipoproteins (LDL), high density lipoproteins (HDL), very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and triglycerides. This study assesses the prevalence of dyslipidaemia among apparently healthy individuals in physically fit defence service personnel and …

Microalbuminuria as an Independent Screening Tool in Patients with Myocardial Infarction
Abstract: Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) is a condition in which there is an inadequate supply of blood and oxygen to a portion of myocardium; most common cause being atherosclerosis of coronary vessels. Microalbuminuria (MAU) is defined as urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) of 30–300 mg/g. It is considered as marker of generalized endothelial dysfunction and vasculopathy and suggested to contribute to the formation of atherosclerotic lesion and ultimately leading to risk of …

Influence of Reptin on acute pancreatitis model of the rat
Abstract: Background and Aim: In acute pancreatitis, hyperproduction of inflammatory mediators, including inflammatory cytokines, exacerbation of tissue injury due to microcirculatory disturbances, secondary activation of inflammatory cells in distant organs, and the cascade are the pathogenic basis of pancreatitis severity. Therefore, inhibition of pancreatic enzyme activity, blocking production, and preventing the activation of inflammatory cells is a practical way to prevent the development of severe acute pancreatitis and multiorgan failure. In …
