Conclusion Levels of several microglial activation mediators are reduced in PD-MCI patients inferring a protective role to certain inflammation factors against cognitive decline in PD.

Aim of this study is to understand the cortical mechanism underlying the negative symptoms seen in patients with schizophrenia such as inactivity, restricted behavioral repertoire, by using functional MRI (fMRI) to determine whether the action origin words have a different representation in the brain regions of patients with schizophrenia and healthy individuals. Our hypothesis is that restriction in the repertoire of movement and behavior and the failure of words of "action" than words of "object" are interrelated through the same cortical mechanisms. If this hypothesis is correct, the reason for not taking action in patients with schizophrenia may be improper definition of the action (verb). Methods fMRI study was conducted with 12 patients with schizophrenia and 12 healthy individuals. fMRI recording was performed after applying positive and negative syndrome (PANSS) scale, Calgary depression scale,vation in patients with schizophrenia than healthy individuals. There is no difference between patients with schizophrenia and healthy volunteers in terms of correctly identified words and reaction time. Conclusion Considering the lack of difference between the groups in terms of number of correctly identified words and reaction time, and BA 44's role in recognition and imitation of action and being a part of the mirror neuron system, the significant inverse correlation between PANSS negative score and BA40 can be seen as an effort to compensate for BA44 inadequate activity through BA40.

In this study, we identified the distribution and risk factors for fall-related child injuries at home in Ujjain, India. Methods A community-based, cross-sectional study was conducted in 2017 in Ujjain, India, which included 6308 children up to 18 years of age living in 2518 households. Data were collected using a pretested, semi-structured, proforma from the parents of the included children. Results The overall incidence of home injury was 7.78% (95% confidence interval [CI] 7.12-8.84) in the last 1 year, ie, 2015-16. The incidence was significantly higher at 5-10 years of age (odds ratio [OR] 2.91, 95% CI 1.75-4.85; P 10; aOR 0.69, 95% CI 0.56-0.86; P less then 0.001 and aOR 0.67, CI 0.48-0.94; P less then 0.023, respectively), cooking area (combined vs separate; aOR 0.82, 95% CI 0.68-1.00; P = 0.057), and whether mother is alive vs not alive (aOR 2.09, 95% CI 1.10-3.94; P = 0.023). Conclusion The incidence of fall injuries among children at home in Ujjain, India, was similar to other resource constraint settings. The incidence was higher in rural areas, in the age group of 5-10 years, and in families in which the mother was not alive. By contrast, large and combined families had a lower incidence of falls. © 2020 Pathak et al.Though peripheral blood eosinophilia is common due to allergic diseases, drugs, parasitic infections, and malignancies, it is rarely reported due to tuberculosis (TB). The association between eosinophilia and TB is not well known. We have a case of the 9-year-old female present with abdominal pain in the right upper quadrant which is non-radiating associated with decreased appetite, weight loss, malaise and low-grade fever and vomiting of ingested of two weeks. On examination, she had severe wasting and hepatomegaly. On investigations, she had leukocytosis with 50% of eosinophilia, high ESR, multiple liver cysts (abdominal ultrasound and CT) and biopsy suggestive of TB.
