During his stint at the DMCH, he took a sabbatical in 1970 to secure MRCP from the UK. In 1979, Mishra became the Professor of the General Medicine department. Another higher degree of FRCP was obtained in 1984 from Edinburgh in 1984 and two years later, in 1986, he became the Head of the Department of General Medicine at the DMCH.[1][2] He also secured an FRCP from London in 1988. Dr. Mishra retired in 1995, voluntarily ending his career at the DMCH.[3] LegacyMishra's studies on Visceral leishmaniasis are considered by many as his most notable contribution.[1] Leishmaniasis, the second largest parasitic killer after Malaria[5] and known locally as Kala Azar, was a common disease in the area and, after extensive research[2] funded by the World Health Organization, Dr. Mishra proposed the use of Amphotericin B (Fungizone) to combat the disease through an article he published in Lancet in 1991.[3] The proposal is regarded as a pioneering one[2] and the drug is the one most commonly used the world over to treat Kala Azar.[3] Mishra is also credited with research on arsenic in drinking water. His studies on the subject, assisted by his son, Narottam Mishra[15] who is an Information Scientist at the Kameshwar Singh Darbhanga Sanskrit University, have been successful in finding a cost effective way to eliminate arsenic from drinking water by using food grade alum.[2][3] His article on the topic has been published by ResearchGate.[6] He has shown that Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri), a herb traditionally used in India, can be effective in the treatment of Dementias. This study is registered in a WHO Primary Registry (ISRCTN18407424).[7] The work entitled, BRAHMI (Bacopa Monnieri Linn) in the Treatment of Dementias- A Pilot Study [8] is available on Research Gate.[9] His study was presented as an eposter at the Innovation in Medicine 2018 RCP annual conference, London 25,26 June 2018 (RCP18-EP-196: BRAHMI (Bacopa monnieri Linn) in the Treatment of Dementias- A Pilot Study)[10]
