Abstract

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES: To find out the diagnostic role of platelet indices in newly diagnosed patients of myocardial infarction and compare it with normal individuals. METHODS: The platelet indices were measured in 100 newly diagnosed patients of myocardial infarction admitted in cardiology unit, Lady Reading Hospital (LRH) Peshawar, Pakistan and were compared with 100 normal subjects. Two milliliter of venous blood of each subject was collected in K3-EDTA tubes. Platelet indices were assayed by using Sysmex KX-21, Japan auto-analyzer in clinical laboratory of LRH within 10-20 minutes of collection of blood. The data was analyzed by using SPSS version 20. RESULTS: There were 85 males and 15 females in cases and 75 males and 25 females in control group. The mean ages in cases and control group were 50.87+11.02 47.31+12.09 respectively. Platelets count was significantly decreased by 19.93% (p

Abstract

Objectives: To determine and compare vitamin D status in chronic hepatitis C patients and normal healthy matching controls. Study Design: A case control study. Setting: A private clinic of Peshawar. Period: 1st November 2015 to 31st January 2016. Material & Methods: Fifty clinically normal young adults and fifty non cirrhotic chronic hepatitis C patients were included in the study. Vitamin D was determined by electro chemiluminescence. Student t test was used to analyze the data in SPSS version 21. Results: The mean age of the study population was 30.68+ 5. Vitamin D deficiency was divided into three categories. 21% of the study population had severe vitamin D deficiency, 33% had mild to moderate deficiency and 46% of the study population had normal levels. Females population were more vitamin D deficient as compared to males (p-value

Abstract

Objectives: To determine whether serum vitamin D levels are correlated with serum levels of alkaline phosphatase or not? Study Design: Case control cross sectional study. Setting: Gastroenterology unit of private teaching hospital in Peshawar. Period: From November 2015-Januaray 2016. Material and Methods: 100 participants meeting the criteria were included in the study. Fifty clinically normal young adults and fifty were non cirrhotic chronic hepatitis C patients were included in the study. Venous blood samples were taken from all the study participants and serum vitamin D levels were determined by Electro-chemiluminescence binding assay (ECLIA) and serum alkaline phosphatase was determined by Photometric Kinetics. Results: patients were divided into two groups on the basis of gender i.e.25 males and 25 females. A correlation between vitamin D and alkaline phosphatase was determined. Alkaline phosphatase was raised in the non cirrhotic chronic hepatitis C patients. Pearson correlation was applied to find out the relation between vitamin D levels and alkaline phosphatase in the two groups which had a significant relationship with a p-value of 0.01. A positive correlation between alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone was found with a p value of
