The Anatomy Abdomen Spotters Revision Presentation is a comprehensive and detailed resource designed specifically for first-year MBBS students preparing for their exams. This presentation covers all the essential aspects of abdominal anatomy, providing a thorough review of the structures, functions, and relationships within the abdomen.
The presentation is divided into several sections, each focusing on a specific aspect of abdominal anatomy. It includes detailed explanations of the organs and structures within the abdomen, such as the liver, spleen, pancreas, stomach, intestines, and kidneys. The presentation also covers the blood supply, lymphatic drainage, and innervation of the abdominal organs, helping students understand the complex network of vessels and nerves that support abdominal function.
One of the key features of this presentation is the inclusion of high-quality images and diagrams that illustrate the anatomical structures in detail. These visual aids help students visualize and understand the spatial relationships between different abdominal organs, making it easier for them to identify and remember key anatomical landmarks during exams.
In addition to the detailed explanations and visual aids, the presentation also includes interactive quizzes and practice questions to help students test their knowledge and reinforce their understanding of abdominal anatomy. These quizzes are designed to mimic the format of the MBBS exams, giving students valuable practice in answering exam-style questions and improving their test-taking skills.

Anatomical Variation of the Coeliac Trunk A Case Reportijtsrd
The coeliac trunk is an artery of the foregut. It is about 1.5 cm long, present below the aortic hiatus and originates from ventral aspect of abdominal aorta. It runs horizontally forwards and slightly right above the pancreas and splenic vein. It further trifurcates into left gastric artery, common hepatic artery and splenic artery. During dissection various authors have reported the anatomical variation of coeliac trunk and its branching pattern. The most common classical type of branching pattern of coeliac trunk is the trifurcation but, in this case, it has been noticed that, there is early origin of left gastric artery. This condition usually being asymptomatic becomes importance during certain operative procedures and while performing major surgeries, knowledge of such variation plays a very significant role.

Roti Bank Hyderabad: A Beacon of Hope and NourishmentRoti Bank

Hamdard Laboratories (India), is a Unani pharmaceutical company in India (following the independence of India from Britain, "Hamdard" Unani branches were established in Bangladesh (erstwhile East Pakistan) and Pakistan). It was established in 1906 by Hakeem Hafiz Abdul Majeed in Delhi, and became
a waqf (non-profitable trust) in 1948. It is associated with Hamdard Foundation, a charitable educational trust.
Hamdard' is a compound word derived from Persian, which combines the words 'hum' (used in the sense of 'companion') and 'dard' (meaning 'pain'). 'Hamdard' thus means 'a companion in pain' and 'sympathizer in suffering'.
The goals of Hamdard were lofty; easing the suffering of the sick with healing herbs. With a simple tenet that no one has ever become poor by giving, Hakeem Abdul Majeed let the whole world find compassion in him.
They had always maintained that working in old, traditional ways would not be entirely fruitful. A broader outlook was essential for a continued and meaningful existence. their effective team at Hamdard helped the system gain its pride of place and thus they made an entry into an expansive world of discovery and research.
Hamdard Laboratories was founded in 1906 in Delhi by Hakeem Hafiz Abdul Majeed and Ansarullah Tabani, a Unani practitioner. The name Hamdard means "companion in suffering" in Urdu language.(itself borrowed from Persian) Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed was born in Pilibhit City UP, India in 1883 to Sheikh Rahim Bakhsh. He is said to have learnt the complete Quran Sharif by heart. He also studied the origin of Urdu and Persian languages. Subsequently, he acquired the highest degree in the unani system of medicine.
Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed got in touch with Hakim Zamal Khan, who had a keen interest in herbs and was famous for identifying medicinal plants. Having consulted with his wife, Abdul Majeed set up a herbal shop at Hauz Qazi in Delhi in 1906 and started to produce herbal medicine there. In 1920 the small herbal shop turned into a full-fledged production house.
Hamdard Foundation was created in 1964 to disburse the profits of the company to promote the interests of the society. All the profits of the company go to the foundation.
After Abdul Majeed's death, his son Hakeem Abdul Hameed took over the administration of Hamdard Laboratories at the age of fourteen.
Even with humble beginnings, the goals of Hamdard were lofty; easing the suffering of the sick with healing herbs. With a simple tenet that no one has ever become poor by giving, Hakeem Abdul Majeed let the whole world find compassion in him. Unfortunately, he passed away quite early but his wife, Rabia Begum, with the support of her son, Hakeem Abdul Hameed, not only kept the institution in existence but also expanded it. As he grew up, Hakeem Abdul Hameed took on all responsibilities. After helping with his younger brother's upbringing and education, he included him in running the institution. Both brothers Hakeem Abdul Hameed and Hakim Mohammed
