(3H)‒quinazolin‒4‒ones were reported for enhanced antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal and antimalarial activities with aryl and styryl substituents at position two and three respectively. In the present work, synthesis of some newly substituted (3H)‒quinazolin‒4‒ones starting from 2‒aminobenzoic acid and acetic anhydride producing 2‒methyl‒benzoxazin‒4‒one (Step‒I) has been undertaken. Replacement of ring oxygen from benzoxazin‒4‒one (step‒II) with nitrogen atom of 4‒chloro aniline produced first series of title compounds (QIa-QIk). In addition, 2-methyl group of benzoxazin‒4‒one was extended further as ethenyl (‒CH=CH‒) linkage joining to various substituted aldehydes (Step‒III). It has produced sufficient quantity of 2‒styryl‒3‒aryl‒(3H)‒quinazolin‒4‒ones (QIa‒QIk, Scheme I). In obtaining second series compounds (QIl‒QIt), identical approach was followed with replacement of benzoxazin-4-one ring oxygen with nitrogen atom of various substituted amines (Step‒II).There is extension of methyl group of benzoxazin‒4‒one as ethenyl group (‒CH=CH‒) joining 2‒chloro benzaldehyde. It has produced sufficient quantity of 2-[2-(2-Chloro-phenyl)-vinyl]-3-aryl‒(3H)‒quinazolin‒4‒one (QIl‒QIt, Scheme II). Structures of synthesized compounds were established by elemental analysis (C, H, N, O and X=halogen), FT‒IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HR‒MS. In-vitro disk diffusion assay was performed using Gram‒positive bacteria Bacillus subtilis (NCIM2711), Staphylococcus aureus (NCIM2079), Gram‒negative bacteria Kleibsella pneumonia (ATCC 4352), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC27853) and fungi Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger. Ciprofloxacin and Griseofulvin were the positive control standards for bacteria and fungi respectively. Excellent antimicrobial activity (MIC=9.07‒10.54 µM x 10-3) was exhibited by compounds as (QId), (QIf), (QIg), (QIi), (QIj), (QIk), (QIl), (QIm), (QIn), (QIq), (QIr) and (QIs). Present study of (3H)‒quinazoline‒4‒ones will serve as an important path in the development and discovery of newer antimicrobial agents.

Macrocytosis in adults is defined as a red blood cell (RBC) mean
corpuscular volume (MCV) >100 FL. Macrocytic anemia is generally classified into
megaloblastic and non-megaloblastic anemia. The objective of this study was to assess
haematological findings in patients of macrocytic anemia based on complete blood
count and peripheral blood smear and to classify them based on clinical, serum vitamin
B 12 and folic acid levels .The study was carried out over a period of one year at a
tertiary care teaching hospital. 100 patients were selected on simple random sampling
with MCV>99 FL and peripheral blood smear showing features of macrocytosis. Out
of the 100 patients studied of macrocytic anemia, 55 percent had megaloblastic anemia
and remaining 45 percent had non-megaloblastic anemia due to various causes. In our
study, megaloblastic anemia was the most common cause of macrocytic anemia and
among non- megaloblastic causes liver disorders like hepatitis was the most important
cause.

A simple and precise reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the determination of cefuroxime in human plasma was developed and validated. Using cefazolin as an internal standard (IS), 0.25 ml plasma samples were deproteinized with 90 µl of 3% trichloroacetic acid in methanol, the supernatant was extracted with 150 µl acetonitrile, and 100 µl of the second supernatant were injected into the HPLC system. Separation was achieved on Atlantis dC18 column with a mobile phase composed of 0.01 M cetyltriethylammonium bromide, 0.01 M dipotassium hydrogen phosphate (pH 6.5), and acetonitrile (30:30:40, v:v:v). The mobile phase was spiked with triethylamine (10 µl/L) and delivered at 1.0 ml/minute. The eluent was monitored spectrophotometrically at 278 nm. No interference with cefuroxime and IS peaks by extracted blank plasma components or commonly used drug was observed. The relationship between cefuroxime concentration and peak height ratio of cefuroxime to the IS was linear over the range of 0.25-14.0 μg/ml. Coefficient of variation and bias were ≤ 12.6% and ≤ 11.0%, respectively. Mean extraction recovery of cefuroxime and the IS was 99% and 95%, respectively. The method was applied to assess the stability of cefuroxime under various conditions encountered in the clinical laboratory. Cefuroxime stability in processed samples stored at room temperature for 24 hours or 48 hours at -20 °C, and in unprocessed samples for 24 hours at room temperature or 14 weeks at -20 °C was ≥ 96% and ≥ 83%, respectively.

Acinetobacter has emerged as significant hospital pathogen involved in
outbreaks of hospital infections, notoriously known to acquire antibiotic resistance to
most of the commonly prescribed antimicrobials. Many risk factors are associated with
Acinetobacter infections, especially in patients in intensive care unit (ICU).
Acinetobacter species tend to be resistant to a variety of antibiotics and thus the
infections are difficult to treat. This study aims to isolate Acinetobacter from various
clinical samples and to determine its antimicrobial sensitivity pattern. The objectives of
the present study were; 1) To isolate Acinetobacter species from various clinical
samples. 2) To study their Antibiogram pattern of the Isolated Organisms. A total of 93
Acinetobacter species were isolated from various clinical samples. Identification of
Acinetobacter was done on the basis of hemolysis on blood agar, growth at 42ºC, and
oxidation fermentation test. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was done as per standard
CLSI guidelines (2017). Maximum isolation of Acinetobacter species were from pus or
wound swabs 57 (61.29%) followed by sputum and tracheal secretions 21 (22.58%)
and urine 15 (16.12%) samples. Most of the strains were sensitive to imipenem (97%),
piperacillin-tazobactam (91.39%), and getifloxacin (86%) whereas, maximum
resistance was observed to co-trimoxazole (10.75%) and gentamicin (9.67%).
Acinetobacter spp. has emerged as a major nosocomial pathogen. Broad-spectrum
antibiotics should be used with caution and only after antibiotic susceptibility testing.
Early identification and continued surveillance of prevalent organism will help prevent
the spread of Acinetobacter in hospital environment. Empirical antibiotic policy should
be determined for each hospital according to the resistance rates of that hospital setting.

Sclerosing rhabdomyosarcoma (SRMS) is a very rare subtype of
rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and can lead to diagnostic difficulties especially if one is
not advised of this variant. This entity was first described in 2000 by Mentzel and
Katenkamp.Morphologically, it is characterized by an abundant hyalinized stroma that
may erroneously lead to the diagnosis of extraskeletal chondrosarcoma, sometimes this
stroma simulates a primary osteoid or vascular tumor. Thus, it can lead to confusion
with osteosarcoma or angiosarcoma. We report here a case of SRMS mimicking a
sclerosing epithelioid fibrosarcoma appearing in calves in a 55-year-old man. The
tumor cells were arranged in nests, cords with sometimes a pseudovascular features.
Immunostaining showed that the tumor was positive for Desmin, SMA and MyoD1,
focally positive for myogenin and negative for CK, P63, EMA, S-100, H-caldesmon,
CD34, CD31. Based on morphological discovery and immunostaining, he was
diagnosed as an SRMS. This is the first case of SRMS to show a strong and diffuse α-
SMA highlighting the risk of misdiagnosis as leiomyosarcoma.

Hematological disorders are frequent in all age groups and most of them
present with anemia. Bone marrow aspiration is useful and cost effective diagnostic
procedure for diagnosis of both neoplastic and non-neoplastic hematological diseases.
This study was done to emphasize the crucial role of Bone Marrow Aspiration in
diagnosis of hematological disorders. This was a retrospective study carried out in a
period of 1 year (July 2016-August 2017). Bone marrow examination of 65 cases of
suspected hematological disorders on peripheral blood smear was carried out and
clinical history was recorded. We studied total 65 patients among them most common
red blood cell pathologies were megaloblastic anemia (56%) followed by mixed
erythroid hyperplasia (11%), iron deficiency anemia (6%), normoblastic maturation
(6%). All the 5 patients of platelet disorders were diagnosed as Idiopathic
Thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Among WBC pathologies Acute Leukemia (6%) and
other Miscellaneous like aleukemic leukemia, leucoerythroblastic reaction &
haemophagocytic lymphohistocytosis. Megaloblastic anemia was found to be the most
common finding in RBC pathology, in WBC pathology acute leukemia was the most
common and among platelets ITP.

Chronic myeloid leukemia is a malignant clonal expansion of hemato¬poietic progenitor cells causally linked to a specific chromosomal abnormality, the Philadelphia chromosome. It occurs uncommonly in childhood, accounting for only 2 to 5% of all pediatric leukaemias with an annual incidence of about 1 per million in this age range. We describe one such case of chronic myeloid leukemia in an 11 year old boy, who presented with massive splenomegaly and hyperleukocytosis. The diagnosis was made from peripheral blood smear examination, supported by karyotypic study. Because of the infrequency of its occurrence, it was thought of interest to report this case of CML and to review certain interesting features of this entity in the pediatric population

Abstract: The objective of the study was to compare computed tomography (CT) imaging of patients with respect to neurological signs. This is a hospital based prospective observational study. 50 patients of eclampsia (both antepartum and postpartum) were studied. CT scan was performed within 48 hours of admission. Statistical analysis was done chi square test and unpaired student’s t test. In this study, of the 42 cases with CT scan abnormality, 39 women had neurological signs and symptoms and 3 cases did not have neurological signs and symptoms (p=0.000005). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were found to be 92.85%, 75%, 95.12% and 66.66 % and the diagnostic accuracy was found to be 90%. CT scan of brain in eclampsia can provide useful intra cerebral information and should be done in cases with severe neurologic manifestations, if possible for every eclamptic mother. Further studies including diagnosis of specific neurological manifestations would emphasize the precise clinical presentations in women with eclampsia. Neuroimaging therefore, will help in modifying management protocol in eclampsia.

An important milestone in the history of blood transfusion was the discovery of the ABO blood groups by Karl Landsteiner, followed by discovery of Rh (D) antigen. Landsteiner’s achievements lead to several discoveries in the field of immunohaematology. The ABO blood group is useful in selecting the appropriately matched blood group during blood transfusion, organ transplantation, finding out
association of blood groups and diseases etc. ABO blood group system classifies blood groups of people into four different types namely A, B, O and AB. The need for the study of frequency distribution of blood group is multipurpose. This study was done to know the frequency distribution of blood groups among first year medical students. This study was conducted on 100 medical students in the Department of Physiology at CAIMS medical college in Karimnagar Telangana state. The blood samples were collected by finger prick method. ABO blood grouping and Rhesus factors (Rh) typing determined by glass slide method. Out of total 100 medical students who volunteered, 30 were males and 70 females. In our study, the most frequently occurring blood group was O ( 42%) followed by B group (29%), A group 17% ) and AB group(12% ) . 81% students were Rh positive whereas only 19% were Rh negative. This study may enable us to contact individuals belonging to a particular blood group at times of medical emergencies when blood transfusion is required.

The Large Intestine neoplasms are one of the most common neoplasms
encountered now a days. It consists of both colon and rectum malignancies. At present
it ranks second to bronchogenic carcinoma in most prevalent cancers. Globally
8,00,000 Colo-Rectal Cancer cases are believed to occur and mortality of this is
expected to be near 4,50,000. Overall incidence is 10% of all cancers. The present
study was undertaken to study neoplastic lesions in the large intestine for the period of
twenty-two months. The study consisted of total 65 cases out of which, 46 were
surgically resected specimen and 19 were biopsies. Majority of the cases were
Adenocarcinomas (61.5%), followed by Mucinous adenocarcinoma (24.6%). Most
common location of Colo-Rectal Cancer was rectum (47.7%) followed by sigmoid
colon (15.4%). Rare cases like Signet ring cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma,
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor and lymphoma were also found in the study.
Histopathological evaluation is the only confirmatory investigation for diagnosis of
such tumors. Present study emphasizes the need for early histopathological diagnosis
for appropriate treatment.
