Abstract
The present study was conducted on Head Punjnad (HP) and Head Taunsa (HT) to evaluate the contamination of Pb, Cr, As, Hg, and Cd in water, soil, sediment, fish as a whole and fish organs. Fish, water, soil and sediment samples were collected from different sites of HT and HP on a monthly basis for 8 months. Heavy metals in water, soil, and sediment were determined by a polarized Zeeman atomic absorption spectrophotometer and in fish and fish organs by an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Contamination of Cd, Hg, and As was significantly (P<0.05) higher in water of HP as compared to HT, while Cr showed a non-significant (P>0.05) difference at HP and HT. Pb was significantly (P<0.05) higher in water of HT as compared to HP. In the case of soil, Cd, Hg, and Pb were higher at HT as compared to HP, while As and Cr were significantly (P<0.05) higher at HP as compared to HT. In sediment, contamination of Cd, Hg, and As were significantly (P<0.05) higher at HP as compared to HT, while the Cr difference was non-significant (P>0.05) but Pb showed a significantly (P<0.05) higher value at HT than HP. Cd accumulation in different fish species was recorded as R. rita ˃O. niloticus ˃C. marulius ˃S. sarwari ˃C. idella ˃C. catla ˃N. notopterus ˃E. vacha ˃L. rohita ˃C. carpio, respectively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the diagnostic accuracy of plain computed tomography using the ratio between hounsfield unit and haematocrit of cerebral venous sinuses in cases of acute cerebral venous sinus thrombosis taking magnetic resonance venography as the gold standard. METHODS The cross-sectional validation study was conducted at the Department of Diagnostic Radiology, Combined Military Hospital, Rawalpindi, Pakistan, from March 9 to September 8, 2021, and comprised patients regardless of age and gender presenting with acute neurological and visual signs and symptoms of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis for <5 days. The patients were brain-imaged on 128-slice computed tomography scanner, and the image was assessed and the attenuation values in terms of Hounsfield unit of dural venous sinuses were calculated by taking appropriate region of interest. Haemoglobin and haematocrit values were noted from blood reports, and then the ratio between Hounsfield unit and haematocrit ratio was calculated. Magnetic resonance venography of the patients were performed and the patients were assessed for dural venous thrombosis. Data was analysed using SPSS 23. RESULTS Of the 201 patients, 98(48.8%) were males and 103(51.2%) were female. The overall mean age was 35.32±19.707 years (range: 1 month-70 years). According to the Hounsfield unit-haematocrit ratio, acute cerebral venous sinus thrombosis was detected in 173(86.01%) patients, while magnetic resonance venography detected 178(88.6%). The Hounsfield unit-haematocrit ratio had sensitivity 91.01%, specificity 52.17% and diagnostic accuracy 86.57%. CONCLUSIONS Computed tomography attenuation value and Hounsfield unit-haematocrit ratio on unenhanced computed tomography could be used as a reliable method to detect acute cerebral venous sinus thrombosis in emergency settings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and validate in-house HEp-2 cell slides for the detection of ANA by indirect immunofluorescence. STUDY DESIGN Cross sectional validation study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Immunology, Armed Forces Institute of Pathology Rawalpindi, Punjab, Pakistan, from April to September 2022. METHODOLOGY This study involved development of in-house HEp-2 cell slides after procuring cell lines, sub-culturing and fixing them on different slides using variety of fixatives under different protocols. After standardisation of procedure, validation of procedure was done by testing sera of 305 patients for ANA detection at 1:40 dilution on in-house HEp-2 cell slides and subsequently on commercial HEp-2 cell slides (gold standard). Indirect immunofluorescence was observed by the two observers working independently and kept blinded from the results interpreted by each other. Data were collected on a pre-designed proforma and then analysed. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive values (NPV) of in-house HEp-2 cell slides were calculated. RESULT Sera of 305 patients were tested on in-house and commercial HEp-2 cell slides. Sensitivity and specificity of in-house HEp-2 cell slides for ANA detection were 96.92% and 99.58%, respectively. PPV and NPV of in-house HEp-2 cell slides came out to be 98.43% and 99.17% respectively. CONCLUSION In-house HEp-2 cell slides are as effective as commercial HEp-2 cell slides for the detection of ANA and can be used as cost-effective alternative. KEY WORDS Antinuclear antibodies (ANA), Human epithelial type-2 (HEp-2), Immunofluorescence.

Abstract
Omphalomesenteric duct (OMD) anomalies occur as a result of resorption failure during gestation. Various forms of OMD anomalies are documented depending upon the degree of resorption (complete or partial) including Meckels diverticulum, fistulas, fibrous bands, and cysts to umbilical polyps. Among these, Meckels diverticulum is the most common of these anomalies, and omphalomesenteric duct fistula (OMF) is the most rare. Complete persistence of OMD in neonates results in OMF, which has a male predominance. OMF is documented in less than 0.1% of the population. Differentials include urachal remnants and umbilical granuloma. We report a rare case of a 10-day male neonate who presented with umbilical swelling and discharge. This case is presented to highlight the occurrence of this extremely rare phenotype to raise a high index of suspicion and awareness among healthcare providers. Key Words: Omphalomesenteric duct fistula, Umbilical swelling, Sinogram.

Abstract
Anti-N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptor (NMDAR) antibody encephalitis is a potentially lethal form of autoimmune encephalitis in which auto-antibody production occurs against the NMDAR, NR1 subunit, causing massive dysregulation of neuro-transmission. This syndrome is often paraneoplastic (ovarian teratomas) having a male-to-female ratio of 1:4 and most often manifests with neuropsychiatric signs and symptoms, including hallucinations, memory loss, and diminished conscious level leading to death. Immunotherapy and surgical removal of the predisposing malignancy often result in prompt relief of symptoms. We hereby present clinicopathological features and management outcomes of three cases of anti-NMDAR encephalitis (2 females and 1 male). All three patients had a prodrome of fever, abnormal psychiatric behaviour, decreased consciousness level, speech dysfunction, and autonomic instability; however, seizures and movement disorders were only present in two patients. Key Words: Anti-NMDAR antibody, Anti-NMDAR encephalitis, Autoimmune encephalitis.

Abstract
The Covid-19, a threatening pandemic, was originated from China in December 2019 and spread quickly to all over the world. The pathogenesis of coronavirus is linked with the disproportionate response of the immune system. This involves the systemic inflammatory reaction which is characterized by marked pro-inflammatory cytokine release commonly known as cytokine release storm (CRS). The pro inflammatory cytokines are involved in cascade of pulmonary inflammation, hyper coagulation and thrombosis which may be lethal for the individual. That’s why, it is very important to have understanding of pro inflammatory cytokines and their pathological role in SARS-CoV-2. The pathogenesis of Covid is not the same in every individual, it can vary due to the presence of pre-existing comorbidities like suffering from already an inflammatory disease such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), an immune-compromised patients suffering from Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and Tuberculosis (TB) are more vulnerable morbidity and complications following COVID-19. This review is particularly related to COVID-19 patients having comorbidity of other inflammatory diseases. We have discussed the brief pathogenesis of COVID-19 and cytokines release storm with reference to other co-morbidities including RA, IBD, COPD, DM and TB. The available therapeutic regimens for COVID-19 including cytokine inhibitors, anti-viral, anti-biotic, bronchodilators, JAK- inhibitors, immunomodulators and anti-fibrotic agents have also been discussed briefly. Moreover, newly emerging medicines in the clinical trials have also been discussed which are found to be effective in treating Covid-19.

Abstract
Heart and liver mitochondria contain a structure that is able to form a large non-selective pore in the inner membrane under conditions of high matrix Ca2+ and oxidant stress. The pore is blocked by cyclosporin A (CSA). In this study, rat liver mitochondria were covalently labelled with a photoactive CSA derivative in the presence and absence of the pore ligands Ca2+ and ADP. Photolabelling of a 21-kDa protein was selectively depressed by Ca2+ in a manner reversed by ADP. The protein exhibited peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) activity and was inhibited by CSA (Ki, 8 nM). The PPIase was associated with the outside of sonicated submitochondrial particles but dissociated in 0.5 M NaCl. When mitochondria were treated with increasing concentrations of digitonin, the 21-kDa PPIase fractionated with the matrix marker enzyme, malate dehydrogenase. A second PPIase of 18 kDa fractionated with the intermembrane-space marker, adenylate kinase. Photolabelling of the 18-kDa PPIase was unaffected by Ca2+ or ADP. The 21-kDa PPIase was digested with endoproteinase Asp-N and 11 of the peptides were N-terminally sequenced. The sequences were most similar to those of human cyclophilin-D, and it is concluded that this protein is probably the CSA receptor during pore blockade by CSA. The implications of these findings are discussed.

Abstract
Heart and liver mitochondria contain a pore in the inner membrane that is activated by Ca2+ and oxidative stress and that has been implicated in cell injury. Pore opening is blocked by cyclosporin A (CSA). Following previous indications that the interaction of CSA with the pore is inhibited by Ca2+ and promoted by ADP, we have investigated how covalent labelling of heart mitochondria by a photoactive CSA derivative is influenced by these agents. In situ photolabelling of an 11-22-kDa (approximately) membrane fraction was selectively increased in the presence of ADP and decreased in the presence of Ca2+. This fraction also accounted for all the high affinity [3H]CSA-binding capacity and contained peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerase activity (PPIase). The membrane PPIase was extracted using Chaps as detergent, and was purified to a 22-kDa protein (SDS/PAGE). The enzyme was inhibited by CSA (Ki 5 nM). The major component of the 11-22-kDa fraction, photolabelled in an ADP/Ca(2+)-sensitive manner, also migrated at 22 kDa on SDS/PAGE; a minor 11-kDa component was also detected. On the basis of these criteria, it is suggested that the membrane PPIase may be the target for CSA when it blocks the pore. The presence of a similar PPIase in the membrane fraction of liver mitochondria was also demonstrated. The implications of these findings are discussed.
