Background: Diarrheal diseases remain a major public health burden in developing countries. It is estimated that around 1.7 million cases of diarrhea in children less than five years old reported annually and around 525000 of these are deaths each year. ORS therapy, zinc and continue breast feeding are low cost effective methods in decreasing morbidity and mortality. Children under five can’t take care of themselves. so mothers had great role toward their children This study conducted to study Knowledge, attitude and practice of women regarding diarrheal diseases in children under five years old, in general Pediatric Hospital, Khartoum ,Sudan,2017

Methodology: This a descriptive cross-sectional hospital- based study conducted in the three major Emergency Pediatric hospitals in Khartoum state, 2017. Data was obtained from 184 mothers who had child admitted in hospitals and had child with diarrhea using structured questionnaire. Data was analyzed using SPSS 19 programme.

Results: 44%percentof mothers of children under-five were between 23-29 years old. Only 14.7% were university graduates .48.6% of children were less than one year and the majority of them58.2% were male. Regarding knowledge 51.7% of mothers didn’t know the correct definition of diarrhea and 95.7% think that teething is the cause of diarrhea .Regarding practice of mothers during diarrheal attacks, only 29.6% of mothers seek medical help. About 14.3% of mothers use ORS and others give complementary fluids. About 30.9% of mothers use traditional method for diarrheal management and 16.8% give self-medication.

Conclusions: The study concludes that the knowledge, attitude and practice of mothers about diarrheal diseases were relatively good which may be influence by hospitals setting. Children less than one years old were more vulnerable to diarrhea than other age groups. Low knowledge regarding the correct definition of diarrhea and the possible causes of diarrhea .Large number of mothers believe that teething is a major cause of diarrhea in children under five years old. Regarding practice during diarrheal attacks mothers didn’t increase the amount of fluids intake or breast feeding during diarrhea and they use antibiotic without medical advices. Very small numbers of mothers uses ORS in the management. Also the management was influenced by cultural and social misbelieve. Most mothers seek health services when home management was fail. So, we should increase knowledge of mothers about diarrhea and correct misconception through health education sessions.

Introduction: Carcinoma of breast is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in the most of the countries and is also the leading cause of cancer death. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in India with ASR incidence 24.7/100,000 and mortality 13.4/100.000. Triple Negative Breast Cancers (TNBC) are regarded as one of the malignant phenotypes, principally accounting for 12-25% of invasive breast cancers.

Material and Methods: Patients data was collected from hospital registry in our Institute Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research (MMIMSR), Mullana, Ambala in Haryana from period 2015 to Dec 2018. All diagnosed cases of breast cancer were included in study. A total of 153 cases were registered. All patients had pathological diagnosis. Out of 153 patients 83 patients had IHC available.

Results: In this study 153 patients were reviewed. The median age of presentation was 50 years (range 30-85). Around 27% patients were younger than 40 years. 52% patients were in age group 40-60 while 20% were above age 60. Most of patients had tumor size less than 5cm (38%) while 33% patients had tumor size more than 5cm. Majority of patients presented with lump in breast followed by pain and discharge. complete IHC done revealed ER positivity in 13.7%, PR positivity 12.4% and HER2 Neu receptor positivity in 10%. In this study incidence of TNBC is 43%. Majority of patients had Intraductal Carcinoma (>90%). Pathologically 57% patients had grade III tumor while 35% were grade II tumor.

Incidence of TNBC is 43% in this study.

Conclusion: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in India. In our study it was observed that most of the patients were 40-60 years age. Majority of the patients had grade III tumor. Incidence of TNBC was found to be higher in our study. Larger data is required for conclusive results.
