Dog bites are a menace in our country with no policies reg sterilization of dogs.Naturally we have enough dogs in the streets but not easily available for 'Pharmacology ' experiments in our part of the country atleast( eastern India) .I want to share one advertisement which I want to share .In a hoarding the picture of 'tortoise' was depicted with its outer hard shell(covering) was shown like a helmet with a cation' Even the slowest of animals uses a helmet' .

please what was your sample sized? was is 191 or 206?
was there any previous study on same or related matter in that environment?
what are the limitation to this study?
I believe this work has public health significance: how do you intend to take it beyond paper work?
kudos - Surya Narayanan Sethumadavan (Viewer) 19th Nov 2015 - 3:28 PMInteresting article. Why the disparity in the sample size? Is it 191 or 206?
- Haseemdeen (Author) 19th Nov 2015 - 9:11 PMThank you for your comment what is the wrong you find out with sample size 206............

The finding of this study cannot be generalized to all injured patients due to small sample size (n=206).
ETU, Surgical Wards and ICU were very rush and most of the time, there was no comfortable situation to interview patient. The interviews conducted to administer the questionnaires were done inside a clinic environment while waiting to consult the doctor. There were some disturbances during the interview which was unavoidable. - Haseemdeen (Author) 21st Nov 2015 - 9:46 PMDR MATIN AHMAD KHAN...........Thank you very much for your comment

Good effort and will improve the quality of work by the analysis of personality traits in relation to trauma.
Thnx
