“…Recurrent metacarpal fractures are also associated with higher anxiety. A recent study by Duramaz et al [12] found that higher anxiety and impulsivity adversely affects the clinical outcome of metacarpal fracture treatment; the researchers suggest a psychiatric consultation for metacarpal fracture patients to improve treatment outcomes and prevent recurrent injuries. Our study observed that patients with higher anxiety levels have problems adapting to treatment, reducing success rates.…”

Background/Aim: Prolonged wait times for examination and delayed hospital appointment times can negatively affect patients. Increased anxiety in orthopedic outpatient clinic patients can disrupt diagnosis and treatment, and increase psychological tension in both patients and healthcare professionals. The aim of our study is to compare the anxiety levels of patients at institutions with different patient population densities. Methods: This cross-sectional survey study included 189 patients who voluntarily completed the Beck Anxiety Scale while registering for treatment of non-traumatic conditions at the orthopedics and traumatology outpatient clinics of two tertiary health care hospitals. Patients were grouped by hospital attended. The study assessed patients' age, education level, estimated monthly income levels, and anxiety levels.Results: 99 patients from the public hospitals and 90 from the private hospitals participated in the survey. A significant positive correlation existed between educational status and income level (P<0.001). No significant difference in income level existed between the two groups (P=0.063), but the education level of patients in the private hospital group was significantly higher than in the public hospital group (P<0.001). The anxiety levels of the patients in the private hospital group was significantly higher (P=0.043); this difference was correlated to education level rather than income level. Patients with higher education levels demonstrated significantly higher anxiety levels (P<0.001). Conclusion:The study concluded that the anxiety levels of patients who applied to the orthopedic outpatient clinics were independent of facility patient density and related primarily to patient attributes. Prospective studies are needed examining the relationship between patient anxiety levels and waiting time.

“…The extract of stem bark of Terminalia bellirica was tested for antimicrobial activity using agar disc diffusion method on solid media [7][8][9] . Luria agar was used as basal medium for Escherchia coli and Bacillus subtilis; and nutrient agar was used as basal medium for Pseudomonas aeroginosa, Staphylococcus aureaus.…”

Medicinal Plants have been practised for hundreds of centuries by tribes all over the world. From the earliest times until the end of nineteenth century plants are still the common source of medicinal treatment yet. Using natural, plant-derived medicines that are “healthier” than prescription drugs derived from synthesized products is something that appeals to consumers. In this study, the plant Terminalia bellirica was taken for study due to the mesmerizing medicinal properties of the plant. The antibacterial activities of acetone, ethyl acetate, benzene and methanol extracts of Terminalia bellirica stem bark were tested for four pathogenic bacterial strains by agar disc diffusion method. Among the various extract, acetone extracts showed good antibacterial activity and maximum zone of inhibition was obtained for Staphylococus aureus (zone size 8mm) followed by Pseudomonas aurogenosa (10mm). The results are given in Table-1. Methanol extract showed antibacterial activity against E. coli (zone size 8mm). On the other hand ethyl acetate and benzene extract was found to be totally unaffected against these bacterial strains.
