Chlamydial serology and laparoscopic findings in infertile women.
(1994) M. Jain; S. Gupta; M. Singh; A.K. Gulati
Fifty-seven infertile women were studied for presence of chlamydial infection by detecting antichlamydial antibodies using indirect immunoperoxidase assay technique. Laparoscopy was performed in all of them. Inflammatory changes in fallopian tubes were present irrespective of serological status. Thus no rigid criteria for carrying out laparoscopy can be made. A high index of suspicion is required for detection of chlamydial infection as it runs an indolent course with no specific symptoms.
Colour Doppler evaluation of uterine and ovarian blood flow in patients of polycystic ovarian disease and post-treatment changes
(W.B. Saunders Ltd, 2020) A.N.D. Dwivedi; V. Ganesh; R.C. Shukla; M. Jain; I. Kumar
AIM: To assess the morphology and colour Doppler parameters in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and also to assess the changes in Doppler parameters in follow-up patients, who underwent treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was conducted on 50 women of reproductive age who had clinical and biochemical findings suggestive of PCOS. Clinico-hormonal parameters were recorded. Ultrasound and colour Doppler flow measurements of bilateral ovaries were performed in the early proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle. After assessment of the bilateral ovaries, colour Doppler ultrasound was used to evaluate the main uterine artery at the cervico-uterine junction. Follow-up imaging after 3 months was undertaken in patients who underwent treatment (metformin) and changes in the imaging and hormonal parameters were correlated. RESULTS: The mean value of luteinising hormone (LH) and the ratio of LH: follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) was significantly higher in PCOS patients. Ultrasound parameters were significantly higher in PCOS patients. Ovarian stromal vessels in PCOS patients had a significantly higher peak systolic velocity (PSV), low resistance index (RI), and pulsatility index (PI). The PSV of uterine arteries were significantly decreased and the RI and PI were significantly increased. On follow-up patients revealed changes in hormonal parameters. CONCLUSION: PCOS is a heterogeneous disorder and is a convergence of multisystem endocrine derangements. Ultrasound is good diagnostic tool for PCOS and the use of Doppler aids in the evaluation of haemodynamic changes in small vessels of utero-ovarian circulation and in response assessment. © 2020 The Royal College of Radiologists

Experience with internal iliac artery ligation in obstetrics and gynaecological practice.
(1990) M. Jain; S. Gupta; D. Sharma
Internal iliac artery ligation was performed in 6 patients (bilateral in 5), as a prophylactic procedure in 4 and as a life saving measure in 2 patients through transperitoneal approach. No morbidity or mortality resulted from this procedure. All the 6 patients in whom internal iliac artery ligation was done to control an otherwise uncontrollable bleeding from their pelvic tissues had ultimately an uneventful recovery. It is advisable to adopt this procedure as a routine in all difficult pelvic operations particularly radical operations for gynaecological malignancy.
Incidental Observations during Routine Laparoscopic Sterilisation
(Evangel Publishing, 1998) S. Gupta; M. Jain
Chance observations made in 24 (0.91%) of the 2639 cases in whom tubal ligation was done by laparoscopic method in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology, Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi during the last 4 years are reported and analysed. Congenital anomalies of the reproductive tract (0.30%), pelvic adhesions with or without thickened tubes due to inflammatory causes (0.49%) and other abnormalities (0.11%) were visualised. It is concluded that surgical correction of all uterine defects is not so necessary for a successful outcome of pregnancy.

A 4π multi-detector gamma-ray spectrometer named the Indian National Gamma Array (INGA) has been set up at the Inter University Accelerator Centre, New Delhi, for nuclear structure studies. The array is designed to incorporate twenty four Compton-suppressed Clover germanium detectors with a total photopeak efficiency ∼5%. The spectrometer along with sub-systems developed in-house like, mechanical support structure, high voltage power supplies, automatic liquid nitrogen filling system, front-end electronics and data acquisition system are described. The mechanical support structure facilitates the use of the Clover Germanium array with a recoil mass separator. The array has been used in a number of nuclear spectroscopic investigations. The in-beam and off-beam performance of the array are reported. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.

Indian National Gamma Array (INGA) is a 4π multi-detector gamma-ray spectrometer based on twenty four Compton-suppressed Clover Germanium detectors with a total photo peak efficiency ∼ 5 %. INGA was designed to perform high resolution gamma-ray spectroscopy to study nuclear structure at high spins with stable ion beams at Inter University Accelerator Centre (IUAC). Description of the facility and performance of the array are presented in this paper. Since its commissioning, a number of nuclear spectroscopic investigations have been carried out using the array.

Reduced expression of gap junction gene connexin 43 in recurrent early pregnancy loss patients
(2011) R.R. Nair; M. Jain; K. Singh
Connexin 43 (Cx43) gap junctions play an important role in development and differentiation of endometrium and placenta. Therefore, aberrant expression of Cx43 could result in altered physiological and pathological processes leading to recurrent early pregnancy loss (REPL). To investigate if expression of Cx43 is effected in REPL patients as compared to controls, Cx43 expression was compared in the chorionic villi and uterine decidua samples of 15 REPL patients and 15 induced abortion subjects as controls. Cx43 levels were evaluated using semi-quantitative RT-PCR, quantitative Real-time PCR and by western blot. Cx43 expression at mRNA and protein level was significantly decreased in both chorionic villi and decidua (p < 0.05) of REPL patients. Reduced expression of Cx43 transcript and protein in fetal chorionic villi and maternal decidua indicate the key role of Cx43 in REPL risk. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
