Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls is usually associated with normal ovulatory cycles and with no pelvic pathology. In around 10% of adolescents and young adults with severe dysmenorrhea symptoms, pelvic abnormalities may be found. One study reported that the prevalence was 60% in Karnataka. In view of high prevalence, the current study was undertaken. OBJECTIVE: To know the effect of Jeera water on reducing pain severity in girls suffering from dysmenorrhea. METHODS: Using a quasi-experimental design, 44 students were selected randomly for intervention who fulfill inclusion criteria. The purposive sampling......

Abstract: Background and Aim: Preeclampsia is known to be a leading cause of maternal and neonatal death worldwide. It is a multi-system disorder of pregnancy with unknown origin, characterized by development of hypertension to the extent of 140/90mm Hg or more with proteinuria after the 20th week in a previously normotensive and non-proteinuric patient. The fall in the platelet count is most frequent abnormality & is probably due to consumption during low grade intravascular coagulation. The current study aims to evaluate the platelet count in pre-eclampsia and normotensive pregnant.....

Abstract: Background and aim: Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific multi-organ syndrome that affects 2% to 8% of pregnancy. It is a unique condition of placental pathogenesis with acute onset of predominantly cardiovascular manifestations attributable to generalized vascular endothelial activation and vasospasm resulting in hypertension and multi-organ hypoperfusion. Elevation of serum sFlt-1 level that is associated with inhibition of nitric oxide signalling can contribute to the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. Therefore the aim of this study is to evaluate the soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 in patients with preeclampsia. Materials and Methods: A case control study was conducted in the Department....

Abstract: Introduction: Dental maturity, expressed as dental age, is one of the common indices for age estimation. A complete or partial absence of an X chromosome in the karyotype of phenotypic females has an impact on dental maturation. The purpose of this study was to determine the dental age in patients with Turner's syndrome using Demirjian's method, and to determine the influence of various karyotypes on dental maturity. Material and methods: The study population consisted of 40 Turner syndrome patients, aged from 9.2 to 18 y. The TS patients were subdivided according to karyotype (monosomy X, mosaic, and isochromosome) so that karyotypic phenotypic correlations.....

Abstract: Introduction: In current clinical practice, obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the most common underlying cause of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), with many of these patients having a history of myocardial infarction (MI) or revascularization. Despite advances in cardiovascular diseases, chronic heart failure (HF) is a category, which the prevalence, incidence, hospitalization rate, total burden of mortality, and costs have increased in the past 2-3 decades. Even though HF is a major global health problem, the data from developing countries are sparse.....

Abstract: La dermatomyosite (DM) à anti-MDA5+ (Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5) est une maladie auto-immune rare décrite principalement en Asie de l'Est (Japon et Chine). Identifiés en 2009, les anticorps anti-MDA5 sont considérés comme spécifiques de la DM. Les manifestations cliniques typiques comprennent des éruptions cutanées spécifiques à la DM (papules de Gottrons, éruption héliotrope) et atteinte musculaire amyopathique. Un pneumomédiastin ou un pneumothorax spontané ont été décrit également (16,3 %). La mortalité est extrêmement élevée due à une maladie pulmonaire interstitielle à progression rapide

Abstract: Le myofibrome (forme localisée unique) ou myofibromatose (forme généralisée multicentrique) sont des tumeurs fibreuses des tissus mous dont les caractéristiques varient en fonction de l'âge auquel ils sont découverts. Ce sont des tumeurs bénignes qui se caractérisent par une atteinte musculaire, osseuse et viscérale. Les formes limitées à la peau, aux tissus mous et à l'os sont de bon pronostic avec une régression spontanée dans la plupart des cas. Le mauvais pronostic des formes viscérales est lié à l'effet de masse local des nodules, responsable d'obstruction et de destruction tissulaire......
