Abstract

Background: Calcium oxalate is the major cause of human kidney stones in all over the globe. These arecolorless, refractile, and envelope-shaped. Sometimes dumbbell-shaped or peanut-like forms are seen. Theyare soluble in dilute Acids. Consumption of some types of foods like tomatoes, spinach, cabbage, asparagus,etc. causes upsurge in its number. A large number are seen in ethylene glycol poisoning.Method : This present research was aimed at investigating the prevalence of calcium oxalate crystalluria inbiochemically normal urine samples came to Clinical pathology section of Central Diagnostic Laboratory,Dhiraj General Hospital for the period of two months from 1st December 2019 to 31st January 2020. Theurine samples were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 min. The supernatant were decanted and the sedimentswere viewed under microscope using high power objective lens with 40x magnification. Total 400 urinesamples with normal urine protein and normal urine sugar were analyzed microscopically using an Olympusmicroscope 4000x. Results showed that calcium oxalate crystals had the prevalence rate of 13.26 %.Conclusion: The study showed that this much of prevalence of COC was associated with food intake andthe social life style.

Abstract

Background: Body fluids are straightforwardly gained by tapping. For fluid routine and microscopicexamination, laboratory receives pleural, peritoneal, CSF, Urine and Synovial fluids. The cytologicalevaluation and biochemical study of these received fluids can be fruitful as assistance to the diagnosis.Present study is an attempt to analyze all the samples referred for cytological evaluation.Method: The study is cross-sectional descriptive, analytical and retrospective kind of study carried out inCentral Laboratory of Dhiraj Hospital, over a period of one year from June2019 to May2020. Fluids suchas peritoneal, pleural, CSF, synovial, etc. were received were examined under light microscope and foundpathologies are classified in malignant and non-malignant entities. A total of 506 body fluids were receivedin the one year period. Majority of the cases were Peritoneal fluid comprised of 242 (47.8 %) followed bypleural fluid with 162 cases (32.0 %). Majority cases were categorized under Non-malignant group. Slightmale dominance was observed with the mean age of 46.2 years.Conclusion: Thorough analysis and appropriate clinical correlation will aid in improving patient treatmentand care. Cytology of the fluid is a rapid and simple diagnostic technique for diagnosis of pathologicalconditions in malignant and non-malignant cases.
