Abstract

The strategies to manage deep caries are constantly evolving as evidence heaps for the use of minimalconservative techniques which would prevent pulpal exposure leading to preservation of pulp vitality,remineralisation of the carious dentin and arrest the progression of caries and offer a predictable success ofthe restoration. Changes in our understanding about the caries process, advent of new adhesive restorativematerials and the possibilities of remineralization of demineralized dental tissues helps us to exploredifferent techniques in caries management. Selective caries removal is now considered an efficient andevidence based approach in deep caries management and focuses on maximum retention of tooth materialthus avoiding the probability of pulp exposure to provide a sound peripheral bondable surface for restorationand creating excellent hermetic seal.

Abstract

Rh incompatibility is a not common pediatric problem, that cause morbidity and mortality in children, and it is an important cause of hemolysis, anemia and jaundice in newborn. To study Rhesus hemolytic disease, its severity, its complications; to evaluate if ABO incompatibility is protective or not, so to find out the efficacy of anti-D globulin ; to evaluate the efficacy of phototherapy and exchange transfusion as a treatment. This study was done on neonates with jaundice, seventy five patients (1-10 days old) who had Rh incompatibility were studied during period from the first of January 2008 to the 30th of June 2008. History was taken about age, gender and gestational age of the patients, determination of gestational age and hepatosplenomegally as a cause of extramedullary hematopoiesis. Investigations done for patients were hemoglobin, total serum bilirubin, reticulocyte count, blood group and Rh, and direct coombs test. From 75 patients studied, 55 patients (73%) required treatment for jaundice;25 of them (46%) required only phototherapy due to mild degree of hemolysis, and 30 of them (54%) required exchange transfusion with phototherapy due to severe degree of hemolytic. The remaining 20 patients (27%) required observation alone. Family history of previous hemolysis was positive in 44 patients and it was a risk factor for having hemolysis in present pregnancy. Early evaluation of patients for jaundice was useful in early recovery. ABO incompatibility in association with Rh incompatibility was not necessarily protective against hemolysis. The administration of anti-D globulin to the mother within first 72 hours after delivery was protective against sensitization. Early and proper management of of Rh incompatibility may reduce need for exchange transfusion. ABO incompatibility was not necessarily protective against hemolysis. Anti-D globulin administered to mothers within 3 days after delivery was protective against sensitization, History of hemolytic in previous siblings is considered as a risk factor for present hemolytic in neonates with Rh incompatibility.

Abstract

The silent killer or ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the major causes of cancer deaths among women in themodern age. In view of the therapeutic roles of platinum based chemotherapy among the ovarian cancerpatients, objective of this report was to assess the effects of the first round of chemotherapy among womenwith ovarian cancer. Here, the levels of the pleural markers for cancer bio markers, before and after thechemotherapy were tested among ovarian cancer patients. The biochemical indices may be of use indeciphering the relation between cancer relapse and platinum retrieval. The pleural analyses pre and postplatinum chemotherapy session demonstrated wide range of biochemical and protein marker changes amongovarian cancer patients. The various cancer antigens were variedly reduced post chemotherapy. Hence, it isproposed that biochemical markers in pleural liquid may serve as better indicators and early diagnostic toolsfor ovarian cancer.

Abstract

Based on the legal construction contained in Article 29 of Law Number 36 the Year 2009 concerning Health,it has ordered that health workers suspected of neglecting in carrying out their profession. There is a needfor a settlement preceded by the mediation stage or what is known as the settlement of disputes out of thecourt. The facts in the field show that the handling of medical disputes, especially for doctors who commitnegligence, has not been fully implemented according to the provisions of Article 29 of the Health Law,meaning that the handling is not carried out through the first mediation stage, as in the case experienced bydr. Ayu et al. They had to be brought to court accused of committing medical malpractice because they failedto save the patient during a cito-cesarean operation. Dr. Ayu et al. at that time did not fulfill their rights to getmediation. This is because there has been no further regulation governing the procedures, procedures, andrules for implementing mediation, especially health services. Due to this fact, it becomes an obstacle to theconsistency of mediation efforts as a necessity in solving medical disputes. Law No. 29 of 2004 concerningMedical Practice and Regulation of the Medical Council Number 32 of 2015 concerning procedures forhandling suspected disciplinary violations of Doctors and Dentists do not regulate mediation efforts, so theimplementation of mediation efforts in health services is not optimal.

Abstract

Apart from identification, determination of age is required in various civil and criminal cases. Age estimationby observing appearance and fusion of ossification centres is most accurate and reliable method which isimplemented universally. However, it is not possible to establish a uniform standard for age estimation fromappearance and fusion of ossification centres for whole India as there is disparity in the timing of appearanceand fusion of ossification centres in Indian population due to various factors. Hence, this descriptiveobservational study was conducted to estimate average age of fusion of ossification centres at lower end ofradius and ulna in male population of North East Madhya Pradesh. Total 80 cases in the age group of 12 to20 years attending the OPD of this tertiary care centre were included in the study. X-rays of both wrists weretaken in anteroposterior view at Dept. of Radiology after taking written informed witnessed consent fromparents and legal guardians of patients and examined in Dept. of Forensic Medicine.Age of fusion of lower end of radius and ulna is found to be 17-18 years in males of North East MadhyaPradesh.

Abstract

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrinopathy that, by the most strict definition, affects5 to 10% of women of reproductive age. There is not complete consensus about the definitive criteria forthe diagnosis of PCOS, which necessitates the searching for new biomarkers for definitive diagnosis.Thisstudy is a case/control study carried on one hundred (100) women divided into two groups: 50 women withPCOS, and 50 women were with absent features of PCOS represent a control group who were attendingthe outpatient clinic of Gynecology department at Baghdad Teaching Hospital during the period fromMarch to September, 2018. A fasting blood sample was obtained from all women during the early follicularphase (days 2–4 of the spontaneous cycle). Lipid profile, fasting blood glucose and fasting blood insulin,luteinizing hormone (LH), follicular stimulating hormone (FSH), and testosterone were analyzed by immunechemiluminescence method. There were no significant differences between the two groups regarding totalcholesterol, low density lipoprotein -cholesterol, high density lipoprotein -cholesterol and fasting bloodglucose. On the other hand, PCOS patients showed higher serum concentration of triglycerides and insulinresistance than controls.
