Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Cholelthiasis is a gall bladder disease which is called Gall Bladder Stone Disease (Stone/Calculus in Gall Bladder). Now-a-days, it is not restricted to Western Countries but it is increasing in Asian Countries too. Cholelthiasis (Gall Bladder Stone) disease is now a common ailment in India as well as in Odisha. There are many risk factors which influence Gall Stone formation, Out of which 5Fs mnemonics are common to remind the public. These 5Fs are Female, Forty, Fertile, Fatty and Fair. However besides 5Fs we have taken another two factors in our study which also play a role in formation of stone in gall bladder which are family history and food habit. In our study it is observed that females in reproductive group of the age above 40 years and obese, having bad food habits are more prone to suffer from Cholelthiasis (Gall Bladder Stone) Disease than others. Therefore the main focus of our study is not only to do research of the disease but also to educate public through our study about the disease and also to prevent from Cholelthiasis disease. The results were analysed and tabulated taking different parameters into consideration. We have given emphasis on female gender excluding males in our study
