The clinical spectrum of hypercalcaemia ranges from being asymptomatic to life threatening situations. Primary hyperparathyroidism is one of cause of hypercalcemia caused by excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone from one or more parathyroid glands. It results from an abnormally high level of serum calcium and an increased level of parathyroid hormone. We present a case of hypercalcaemia presenting as fatigue in an elderly female. So high level of suspicion is needed in evaluating elderly people.

Urinary tract infections (UTI) are one of the most common infections causing morbidity in community and health care setup. Women in reproductive age group (15-49 yrs) are more prone to UTI. This study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of UTI, the microbial etiology and the antibiotic susceptibility profile of the isolates from women with symptomatic UTI in a tertiary care centre in north India. Clean catch midstream urine were processed by semi-quantitative culture and isolates identified by standard biochemical tests. Antibiotic sensitivity was performed by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion test and data analyzed from January 2013 to September 2015. A total of 3141 cases were studied. Prevalence of UTI varied from 16.69% in 2013, 9.77% in 2014 to 8.45% in 2015. Majority of UTI occurred in the age group 21-30 yrs. E.coli was the commonest isolate causing UTI followed by E.faecalis. E.coli showed considerable resistance to ampicillin and fluoroquinolones but performed better against nitrofurantoin with greater than 90% susceptibility. Constant survey of uropathogens and their susceptibility profile is essential for deciding on the empirical treatment of UTI.

Brain tumors represent the most common solid tumor in children and are the leading cause of cancer-related mortality in childhood. Despite modern advances in surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, a significant proportion of the pediatric brain tumor patients still die of their disease or suffer from poor quality of life. Therefore, more effective and alternative therapies are still in urgent need. Tumor cell lines derived from central nervous system tumors are critical tools for carrying out preclinical therapeutic testing and studying the biology of the disease. However, to date only few continuous pediatric brain tumor cell lines have been established.

Because of extreme variations in gross Anatomy of Thyroid Gland, Marshal stated that it was a difficult work to speak about normal thyroid gland [1]. Description of incidence of Pyramidal lobe, an embryological remnant of thyroglossal duct differ from 15 to 75% in Anatomical text books and data concerning its size are lacking [2,3]. During the routine undergraduate dissection of Thyroid gland for Ist year MBBS in the Department of Anatomy, Govt. Medical college, Amritsar, India, in an elderly Male cadaver various morphological anomalies of Thyroid gland were encountered. These were in the form of presence of pyramidal lobe on left side, tip of which was attached to hyoid bone through Levator glandulae thyroidae and absence of superior thyroid artery on right side. The knowledge of various Anatomical & Morphological variation will help surgeons in

forming a cornerstone to safe and effective surgeries.

Health is considered as one of the major priorities of each and every individual, organization, institutions and Government. The advancement of health and medical services have reached from infancy to the development phase. Today, several tools and technologies are being practiced for the modernizing of medical and health services, where information technology (IT) is one of them, to support healthcare sectors directly and indirectly in achieving quality health care. The affiliation and interaction between medical science and information science creates so many new domains and nomenclature, such as; Health Informatics, Medical Informatics, Medical Information Science, Health Information System and so on. These domains offer many possibilities and opportunities of Health and Medical based Information Science education programs to create a workforce to assist healthcare providers in managing hospital and population based health information system. This paper deals with the benefit and advantages of health and medical information science and also the opportunities and possibilities of related educational program in the Indian Education Sector.
