Management of Inguinal Hernia had long been remained an enigma & various method had been employed for its management till date. Recent trend is towards the preferential use of mesh in open as well as Laparoscopic approaches where its advocates almost always undermine the role of raphys in the management of inguinal hernia but Darning repair despite all this critique is still a valid & viable option for the management of Indirect inguinal hernia.

This descriptive study was designed & carried out at the surgical units of Ayub Teaching Hospital Abbottabad from February 01, 2016 to October 31, 2018. A total of 117 patients with indirect inguinal hernia (primary) were included in study, managed with Darn Repair & were later followed for 2 years for the evidence of recurrence.

None of the included patients (followed till last) whom underwent Darning Repair for Indirect Inguinal Hernia were found with the complication of recurrence till 02 years of follow-up although few patients were lost to follow-up for the whole duration 02 years and few others had suffered other early complications like wound infection, seroma, haematoma formation, scrotal swelling or comparatively longer lasting post-operative pain. The Darn Repair was also found cost-effective as compared to Mesh repair.

Darn Repair despite criticism is a viable & effective option for Indirect Inguinal Hernia Repair (where its role indeed is prophylactic NOT curative against the future false recurrence), having no recurrence rate (as per our study results) like mesh repair (as per published literature) besides being reasonably cost-effective.

Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block (IANB) with Buccal Infiltration (BI) anaesthesia is required to completely anesthetize the mandibular molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. 4% Articaine and 2% Lidocaine provide local anaesthesia during the nonsurgical endodontic treatment of mandibular molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Objective of the study was to compare the effect of Articaine and Lidocaine in the combination of Inferior alveolar nerve block with buccal infiltration anaesthesia during the nonsurgical endodontic treatment of mandibular molars with symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis.

One hundred and sixty participants with Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis of permanent mandibular molars were divided randomly in two groups. Group A was given Articaine 4% IANB along with BI whereas group B was given Lidocaine 2%. Pain was assessed after 15 minutes of administration of local anaesthesia. Anaesthetic success of the agents is defined as, absence of pain or mild pain first during the access cavity preparation then instrumentation of the canals of tooth. Chi-square test was applied to analyse data for statistical significance.

Anaesthetic success of Articaine was 96.2% during access cavity preparation compared to Lidocaine (86.2%). Success during instrumentation of canals was also found to be high in Articaine (90.2%) compared to Lidocaine (76.2%). signaling pathway This difference of anaesthetic efficacy between Articaine and Lidocaine was found statistically significant. (p=0.02).

Articaine is found to be better than Lidocaine regarding anaesthetic efficacy and hence, it can be a safer alternative to Lidocaine.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a progressive disease due to multiple pathophysiological defects. Monotherapy alone cannot achieve adequate glycemic control and can lead to treatment failure. Empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter2 (SGLT2) inhibitor improves glycemic control in patients with T2DM. There were limited studies to determine efficacy and safety profile of empagliflozin with conventional oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) in Pakistan. So we investigated the efficacy and safety profile of empagliflozin as add-on therapy to metformin and sitagliptin in T2DM patients.

In this comparative randomized placebo-controlled trial, 240 obese type 2 diabetic patients with inadequate glycaemic control (i.e, HbA1c ≥7%) with metformin and sitagliptin were allocated in to two groups. Patients in group B were given tab empagliflozin 10mg twice a day while patients in group A were given tab placebo for a period of 24 weeks. Changes in body weight, HbA1c, blood pressure were analysed pre and post treatment by using SPSS v23.

Empagliflozin caused a significant reduction in body weight -6.9±2.4 kg as compared to placebo -3.1±0.8 kg with p-value <0.001. This body weight reduction was further accompanied by reduction in systolic blood pressure -10.1±2.6 mmHg in empagliflozin group versus -5.3±2.5 mmHg in placebo group with p-value <0.001, and HbA1c -1.68±0.45 in empagliflozin group versus -0.1±0.06 in placebo group with p-value <0.001. There were 28.3% patients in empagliflozin group in whom HbA1c levels reduced <7% as compared to only 13.3% patients in placebo group (p-value 0.04). However no significant adverse effects were recorded in both study groups.

Empagliflozin as a combination therapy has good efficacy and safety profile in obese type 2 diabetic patients.
