Abstract: Tumoral calcinosis of the hip is a rare form of intra-tissue calcification in patients with chronic renal failure.Factors such as hyperparathyroidism, increased phosphor-calcic product and probably local traumatic factors contribute to its genesis.It is a well-defined clinical and histological entity with a very characteristic radiological appearance.Its treatment remains controversial. Surgical excision is often recommended after optimal treatment for the hyperparathyroidism......

Abstract: Background The use of external fixation has become an integral component of modern Orthopaedics especially in trauma and reconstructive surgery. However, the use can be complicated by pin site infections which remain a major challenge in Orthopaedic practice. Despite various studies done on pin site care, there has not been any universally acceptable protocol as reliance on surgeon's preference and consideration of results from local studies has been the practice in many centres. Frequency of dressing also has been a subject of controversy and there are few studies.....

Abstract: Hideradinoma Papilliferum (HP) is an uncommon benign neoplasm typically presents in the anogenital region of 30 to 49 years old females.Rarely it can be seen over the head and over modified apocrine glands area such as breast, external ear canal,and eyelids. In these cases, it is referred to as Ectopic Hideradinoma Papilliferum.(2). It usually arises from mammary like glands or apocrine glands, in middle aged females. It has histopathological similarities to intraductul papilloma of breast.Clinically It presents as an isolated dermal or subcutaneous nodule which is said to have no connection to the epidermis.Interestingly the lack of communication with the overlying epithelium is accepted by some as criteria for diagnosis.(5)It usually presents as a firm, flesh to red- coloured nodule in the anogenital......

Abstract: Introduction: Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune enteropathy that occurs in genetically predisposed individuals following the ingestion of gluten. It is a public health problem. The search for anti-transglutaminase antibodies (anti-tTG) represents the reference serological test for the detection of this disease. The objective of this work is to evaluate the prevalence of these antibodies in patients with suspected celiac disease in the region of Fez, Morocco. Materials and methods: This is a cross-sectional study with descriptive and analytical aims which focused on the analysis and interpretation......

Abstract: Background: Preterm delivery (PTD) is a significant public health problem associated with higher risk of mortality and morbidity in infants. Over 60% of the preterm births occur in Africa and south Asia. Objective: To detect risk factors involved in preterm labor and to assess fetal outcomes in preterm labor. Methods: A Prospective observational study was conducted among 300 cases of preterm labour admitted in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of a tertiary care centre during January 2021 to June 2022. Results: among 300 preterm babies 90 needed NICU admission with morbidity rate of 30% with complications like; 34% (102) had jaundice, 15% (45)....

Abstract: The goal of the present study was to critically compare the impact of lithium disilicate and zirconium dioxide crowns on periodontal health. The findings of this study may assist in determining the relationship between periodontal health in precisely fabricated lithium disilicate and zirconium oxide crowns. In this circumstance, this might have therapeutic implications. This study will assist patients, doctors, researchers, and the community. Lithium disilicate and zirconium dioxide are newer aesthetic restorative materials. Lithium disilicate is more translucent than zirconium dioxide.....
