Abstract: Résumé Pour explorer un traumatisme oculaire, un examen ophtalmologique systématique est conduit afin de déceler tout syndrome contusif. Par ailleurs, dans ce cas présent, l'examen trouve un aspect de pâleur papillaire révélant une tumeur intracrânienne du système nerveux central encore asymptomatique. D'où l'intérêt de l'examen complet afin de dépister une baisse de l'acuité visuelle non rapportée ou sentie par l'enfant.

Abstract: Background: Hematological disorders emcompass a wide spectrum of disorders ranging from nutritional anemia to various hematological malignancy. This study was performed to develop a knowhow about that spectrum with respect to age and sex in our clinical setting within the community. Materials and Methods: It was a retrospective study of bone marrow aspiration (BMA) done on patients who were referred for bone marrow examination. Cases were analyzed in detail regarding clinical examination and other investigations. Results: BMA from 556 patients were analyzed. Nutritional anemia constituted the highest number of cases among the non-malignant hematological group of which megaloblastic anemia was the most common disorder found. Acute myeloid leukemia......

Abstract: Ocular tuberculosis still represents a major diagnostic and therapeutic challenge, due to its heterogeneous clinical manifestations, mixed ocular tissue involvement, lack of diagnostic criteria and gold standard tests, and lack of international agreement on the therapeutic approach. We report the case of ocular tuberculosis presenting initially as central retinal vein occlusion. A 27 years old female patient presented to the ophthalmology emergency department for an acute painless unilateral vision loss. The examination findings were compatible with a central retinal vein occlusion. The suggestive chest Xray findings, associated with the positive tuberculin skin test and the good response to the anti-tuberculosis treatment were in favor of the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Central retinal vein occlusion in a young patient warrants extensive investigation to look for an underlying cause.

Abstract: Background: Viral hepatitis B and C, as well as HIV infection, are like endemic diseases across the globe, and the spread of these illnesses is a major health concern, especially among developing nations. The most important aspect about this is that, the majority of the population (in developing countries) does not know how this disease gets transmitted and how severe its consequences can be if it persists forever. It's likely that they are only aware of the source of infection, such as repeated blood transfusions or needle exchanges among drug users, which are the main reason for the spread of blood borne diseases. But it has been found that apart from the above mentioned sources of infection, there are some trivial issues where most of the population are not aware and even ignore by the most of the health....

Abstract: Introduction - The poor response to ovarian stimulation among women undergoing IVF is of great concern in reproductive medicine. The reported incidence of poor response varies from 9% to 26%. Certain modalities have been tested through randomized trials to improve the response to gonadotropin stimulation and thus reproductive outcomes such as transdermal testosterone and DHEA, and the duration of the treatment. The present study focused on the intervention of transdermal testosterone administration, which achieves powerful systemic androgenization and subsequently, a greater action of FSH......

Abstract: Aim: Aim of this in vitro study was to compare cusp fracture resistance of root filled maxillary premolars restored with different composite resins using single step self etch and two step (etch & rinse) techniques after MOD preparations. Materials and Methods: 80 premolars with no restorations or cracks were selected. MOD cavities were prepared considering the buccolingual width to be equal to half of the intercuspal distance. The specimens were randomly divided into 8 groups, 10 specimens each: Group I did not receive cavity preparation or root canal treatment, group II remain unrestored after MOD cavity preparation. In group III, Xeno III was applied and then restoration was done with packable resin. Group IV were restored with packable resin after total-etched and Prime and Bond NT application.....

Abstract: Vaginal fibroids are rare condition with approximately 300 cases reported in world literature, exist as primary vaginal tumor and usually arise from anterior vaginal wall. This condition may present with various symptoms and may also be mistaken for carcinoma, sarcoma, vaginal cyst, cystocele, uterine prolapse, and adenomyoma of the vagina because of the variety in its size, appearance and locations. Here we are reporting a rare case of submeatal leiomyomatous polyp which was preoperatively diagnosed as vaginal prolapse.

Abstract: Introduction: The main aim of monitoring antenatal mothers during the peripartum period is to identify fetuses at risk, intervene timely and give a good perinatal outcome. There are many modalities used in monitoring the fetal well being of which CTG and AFI are the simple, economical, easy to use and give better perinatal outcomes. Aim: To detect the reliability of admission CTG with AFI in detecting fetuses at risk in uncomplicated pregnancies. Methods and methodology: This is a prospective study conducted during the period of 1 year from May 2020 to May 2021 in a private setup. The study included 100 low risk women admitted for safe confinement to the labour room. All the patients were subjected to 20 minutes of CTG and screening AFI and these were correlated with the presence of meconium, mode of delivery, APGAR score at 1 and 5 minutes and need for NICU admission.......

Abstract: Background:Anemia is a very common manifestation among patients of CKD. As the renal dysfunction increases in severity, there is proportional increase in prevalence and severity of haematological impairment. There is increased incidence of cardiovascular dysfunction, cognitive impairment and sleep disturbances in anemic patients with CKD. It is also associated with progression of renal disease and increased mortality. This study was conducted to study the spectrum of Anemia in Chronic Kidney Disease patients at a tertiary care centre in North east India.......

Abstract: Background: Venous malformations in the maxillofacial region cause multiple functional and esthetic problems in pediatric patients. Intralesional sclerotherapy is their mail line of treatment; many sclerosing agents are available with various advantages and disadvantages. Many studies compared Ethanol-amine Oleate or Bleomycin with ethanol, or with other sclerosing agents. The present study compares between Bleomycin and Ethanolamine Oleate sclerotherapy of pediatric maxillofacial venous formations to decide which can achieve better therapeutic results. Materials and Methods: 30 pediatric patients, of both sexes, having maxillofacial venous malformations; were randomly divided into 2 equal groups of 15 patients. Group I was treated with Bleomycin at 4 weeks interval, and group II was treated with Ethanol-amine Oleate, at 2 weeks interval. All cases were injected by the same operator, and the 2 groups were compared over 12 months........
