Consequently, to bridge the gap and offer fresh insights into this domain, the present study was an effort to observe the clinical and demographic profile of neurotoxic snake bite in tertiary care hospital of Bangladesh. Methods:This research was a hospital based observational study which was conducted at the inpatient department of Medicine in Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH). Thirty five patients admitted in DMCH for neurotoxic snake bite were examined according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Ethical issues were ensured properly throughout the study.

Insufficient epidemiological data and global neglect of this condition prompted the World Health organization to recognize it as a ‘‘neglected tropical disease’’ Objective: To study demographic characteristics of snakebite victims, to see clinical symptoms of bite and outcomes of snakebite. Methods: A prospective observational hospital-based study carried out from November 2016 to October 2017, in patients with a history of snakebite. Results:Total 300 patients were included in this study,170 (56.67%) were bitten by heamotoxic snakes and 130 (43.33%) were bitten by neurotoxic snakes. Majority of patients were in the age group of 20-39 years ( n=153; 51%). Men outnumbered women( n=190; 63.33%), with male to female ratio of 1.7: 1. Higher incidence of snake bite was found in July – September (n=135;45.00 %) followed by April to June( n=124; 41.33%).Majority of patients were farmers in rural a...

Early-modern globalization and de-globalization of Ming China : A case of Zheng He's expeditions and their aftermath in the fifteenth centuryThe expeditions of Zheng He are often seen to be one of the milestones, which glorify China’s maritime expansion during the imperial past slightly prior to the European age of exploration. Whereas detailed evidences on the expeditions have not been fully available due to scarce historical documents, recent scholarship has been developing elaborate exploration for new source materials including personnel records and biographical entries of Ming’s military officers and eunuchs, both of whom took part in each of the campaigns. In this paper, the author will scrutinize the multifaceted characterization of the campaigns, became obvious exactly by the immediate aftermath. Literatures as to Zheng He’s adventures all presume that the close of the project signals a shift from an expansive and extroverted policy to an introverted one in overall China, which was entirely different from the trajectory of the European world. However, seen from the troop deployment before and after the last expedition during the mid-fifteenth century, of which information is accessible only by personnel records of the Military appointment books (wuzhi xuanbu), the expedition was in nature came at a great price. Aside from the entire cost for building ships, prolonged mobilization of soldiers onto the maritime campaign in a large scale was compensated for by ill-built quartermaster corps, which was essential for the grain supply to the garrison troops of the new capital, Beijing. Meanwhile, the transportation was carried out by vessels and workforce collected as compulsory impressment. In a sense or another, especially in the perspectives of the scholar officials after the mid- fifteenth century, Zheng He’s expedition was conducted in the form of the imperial household’s ‘private’ enterprise, which may have been rooted in imperial trade activities during the Mongol period. The Ming as a sort of the ‘shadow empire’, had to get rid of the Mongol factors, officially at least, thus the consolidation of the imperial logistical system in between the capital zone and the Yangzi valley took priority over inviting tributes from maritime polities and enhancing imperial trade along with numerous sideline business of military officers and eunuchs. The Ming government tried carefully to separate imperial affairs from maritime activities, as well as trade with the inner Asia, both of which subsequently conducted within the private sector. Surely, China may have become introverted after the fifteenth century, but it tried to behave that way, as is found in ostensible appeals for de-/anti-globalization today. The relationship between profit-seeking in the official realm and that in the private sector is still to be seen, even in the contemporary China, and thus Zheng He has become all the more an icon of complexity.
