SONOGRAPHIC ASSOCIATION OF GALLSTONES WITH FAMILY HISTORY AMONG ADULTS.

Conclusions: These data suggest that family factors are responsible for at least 35.7% of symptomatic gallstone disease. However, the true role of heredity in gallstone pathogenesis is probably higher because data based on symptomatic gallbladder disease underestimates the true prevalence in the population.

RHC or epigastric pain, sickness, vomiting, loss of appetite 3 . Ethnicity and family qualities are perceived as contributing variable 3 . They can happen because of the super immersion of bile, cholesterol precipitation, hindered gallbladder capacity and debilitated of entero-hepatic flow of bile acids 5 .The incident of gallstones sickness is decidedly identified with propelling ages, as gallstones are unordinary in people more youthful than 30 years 6 usually with the frequency running from 10% to 20% of the total populace.Every year around 500,000 cholecystectomies were done in (USA) 1 .The information from Pakistan has observed to be rare, however past examination on southern Sindh zone of Pakistan has revealed a surgical incidence of 9.03% 7 . The frequency of gallstones was discovered numerous folds higher in women when contrasted with men and this expansion was all the more amid childbearing stage. 8 There are two types of stones, cholesterol stones and shade (pigmented) stones, cholesterol stone are pure saturated fat, mixed stone, combined stone. Pigment stone are black stone, brown stone 9 . Black pigment stones comprise of 7-10% calcium bilirubinate and brown pigment stones are formed because of disease which change over dissolvable bilirubin into insoluble state prompting development of delicate soft brown stones 10 .
GSD chance elements are multifactorial, which incorporates maturing, sexual orientation, pregnancy, equality, overweight and obesity. Risk factors associated with cholelithiasis in the West include gender (F > M), age, obesity 11,12 . The risk of disease increases with age interval. It is claimed that females are two times more prone to this disease than males. A well-known reminder for retaining the risk factors corresponded with gallstones is woman, obese, fertile and forty 13 .
In Pakistan, late years has seen an expanding pattern in the quantity of gallstone cases in Southern Sindh, Pakistan 14,15 . The recognizable proof of the segments of gallstones is basic as it gives information that could be useful for practitioners to find out the underlying cause of gallstone patients therapeutically or surgically. 16 Unfortunately, gallstone arrangement is heterogeneous, and varies inside and among the populaces around the world 17,18 .
Ultrasonography is the most sensitive and reasonable test for the exposure of gallstones. It is highly specific and sensitive (>95%). A characteristics sonographic of gallbladder full of stones will appear wall echo shadowcomplex sign or echogenic mass with shadowing. Because of high echogenicity of the anterior wall of the gallbladder, superficial stones are visible while deeper stones and posterior gallbladder wall are not unmistakable 19 .

Inclusion Criteria
1. All male and female patients having gallstone with certainty family history 2. All normal male and female without gallstones.

Material And Methods:-
A cross-sectional study were carried out at the Department of Radiology in Lady Reading Hospital Peshawar, Pakistan. Period of study were from Feb 2018 to July 27, 2018. A total of one hundred and twenty six (126) patients were included in the study.
The scanning of gallstones were performed through Mindray DC 70, with frequency range 2.5 -3.5 MHZ. Observations made on gray scale ultrasound machine.

Descriptive analyses were made to explore the conveyance of data. Mean and standard deviation (SD) were computed for continuous variables. Recurrence and rates were figured for all out factors. All data were analysis by Statistical Software for Social Sciences (SPSS version 24)

Results:-
There were 126 patients in this study. The Mean Age of patients were 43.62 ± 10.92 years. The minimum age were 19 years and the maximum age were 80 years (Table 1).        figure 4, 66 patients vomiting/Nausea symptom were present and 15 patients Vomiting/Nausea symptom were absent but patients have negative family history and in 37 patients Vomiting/Nausea symptom were present and 8 patients were absent this symptom patients having positive family history.  Diagnosis  Total  absent  present  Family History  Negative  2  79  81  Positive  15  30  45  Total  17  109  126  Table 6:-Family history cross tabulation

Discussion:-
The current research were designed to determine the sonographic association of gallstones with family history among adults. According to current study the prevalence of gallstones with family history were 35.7%. The results of my study were comparable with the result of the research conducted by Attila Nakeeb et al 20 , 2002 the purpose of his study was control a huge genetic section adds to the pathogenesis of symptomatic gallstones. The outcome demonstrated that the suggestion study major risk factors for symptomatic gallstone sickness were woman gender (P < 003), obesity (P < 001), age > 50 (P < 001), and family history of past cholecystectomy in a 1st grade relative (P < 01). In the family examine the added substance genetic heritability of symptomatic gallstones were 29% (P<02). Toward the end he reasoned that these data recommend that genetic factors are accountable for at least 30% of symptomatic gallstone disease. In my study positive family history of gallstone is associated with expanded risk of biliary stone and Ultrasonography is quite often a decent starting decision for distinguishing gallstones in patients experiencing right hypochondriac or epigastric pain.

The result of my study shows that there were very close relation between gallstones and positive family history 35.7%. Ultrasonography is almost always a decent beginning decision and is uncomplicated circumstances, might be all that is required. So my study agrees with the others study that apart from the affectability and specificity of ultrasound, it is non-invasive, readily available, portable and inexpensive. It is therefore justified to use ultrasound as first line modality in the adults to rule out gallstones.

Conclusion:-
According to this study, females numerous folds higher when contrasted with males and this expansion was all the more amid childbearing age. There were very close relation of gallstones with positive family history.
