Abstract: Objective:
Our aim is to study the relation between corrected QT dispersion
and severity of coronary artery disease in patients with non ST
elevation myocardial infarction. Patients and methods:
This study was conducted on 60 patients attended at Cardiology
department of Al-Azhar University Hospital at the period from
January 2017 and august 2017. They
were diagnosed as
non ST elevation myocardial infarction. And the QT intervals is
measured manually in all leads, and heart rate is corrected (QTc)
using the Bazett’s formula it is square root method obtained by
dividing the actual QT interval by the square root of the RR
interval (QTc = QT/square root of R-R interval in seconds)
then QTc dispersion
was assessed from a 12-lead
electrocardiogram (ECG) as the difference between the longest
and shortest QTc
intervals. Then they were subjected to coronary angiography
within
72 hours after admission then Syntax Score was calculated by
syntax calculator it is a new tool to
grade the complexity of coronary
artery disease and we do Correlation between QTc dispersion and
syntax Score. Results:
The study included 60 patients.
The total number of males in the study was 40(66.67%), and the
total number of females was 20
(33.33%).
The age has ranged from 47 to 66 years and the mean age was
(55.4±4.7) years.
The mean of
QTc dispersion was
(59.65±5.81) m sec. There is significant positive correlation
between syntax score and QTc dispersion, p=0.0001.
Conclusion: QTc dispersion can be used as a simple, accurate
and inexpensive tool correlated with the severity of coronary
artery disease in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Recommendation: Further large scale studies should be
carried out to confirm the relationship between QTc dispersion
and severity of coronary artery disease.
Measurement of QTc dispersion should be done routinely for all
patients admitted with acute coronary syndrome.

Abstract: Introduction: Glenohumeral
instability refers to the humeral head slipping out of the
glenoid socket and causing symptoms. This is a relatively common
abnormality in which the shoulder is considered to be the most
unstable joint in the body (1). Back-ground: Pathological
Abnormalities in Glenohumeral Instability: Ultrasonographic and
MRI Correlations. In an unstable shoulder, many findings are
possible. Each finding can occur alone or in combination with
other lesions. These lesions include the Bankart lesion (85% of
cases), Hill-Sachs lesion (77%), anterior glenoid rim damage
(73%), capsular redundancy, subscapularis deficiency, and
glenoid fossa deficiency. Absence of pathologic findings is also
possible (4). Patients and Methods: Our study was performed on
thirty patients with history of shoulder dislocation. All
patients complained of shoulder dislocation either traumatic or
non-traumatic. Exclusion criteria: Previous shoulder surgery,
glenohumeral joint arthropathy, or substantial shoulder defects
other than the sequelae of glenohumeral joint dislocation.
Results: This study included 30 patients; 28 males, 2 females
with age range from 18 years to 51 years (mean age 30 years, SD
11.9, mode 20 and median 26), suffering from symptoms of
glenohumeral instability in the form of dislocation whether
traumatic or non-traumatic associated with pain and/or
limitation of movement. All of the 30 patients were examined
with ultrasound and MRI’ and the MRI results were then compared
with the collected data of US. Conclusion: We concluded that
ultrasonography can be used as a screening method when there is
any uncertainty, or when the issue of labral or capsular tear is
not obvious from the clinical investigation, especially in
hospitals that far or donot have MRI. However, MR allows
accurate depiction of the size and location of labral tears and
their associated capsular and glenohumeral ligament injuries and
it is needed to evaluate the suspicious or negative Bankart or
Perthes cases with ultrasound.

Abstract: Background: CT is the
primary tool for the evaluation of the extent and complications
of middle ear cholesteatoma. However, it is inaccurate in
differentiation of cholesteatoma from granulation or fibrous
tissue as well as other middle ear pathologies e.g. cholesterol
granuloma. MRI can be a beneficial tool in the confirmation or
exclusion of cholesteatoma. Aim of the Work: The aim of work is
to evaluate the role of MRI diffusion weighted images in the
assessment of cholesteatoma. Patients and Methods: 30 patients
with cholesteatoma suspected clinically or by CT examination or
known patients with cholesteatoma with suspected post-operative
recurrence were tested by MR thin cut multi-shot EPI diffusion
weighted images of the skull base that were acquired by using a
1.5-T Achieva system in our department. Results: Our study
revealed that the use of thin cut multi-shot EPI is a beneficial
tool in the evaluation of both primary and recurrent
cholesteatoma with excellent specificity that reduces the need
of second look surgeries in multiple cases. It also revealed
improved sensitivity and smallest detectable size compared to
SS-EPI techniques. However, it shows relatively less sensitivity
compared to non-EPI techniques with the smallest detectable size
being about 4.5 mm. Conclusion: DWI is a beneficial tool in the
evaluation of both primary and recurrent cholesteatoma with
excellent specificity that reduces the need of second look
surgeries in multiple cases. The use of multi-shot diffusion
weighted techniques improved its sensitivity significantly
compared to single shot techniques. It still could not detect
lesions smaller than 4 mm.

Abstract:
A novel series of thirteen 5-substituted-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiols (3a-m)
was designed, synthesized, and evaluated for its potential
antioxidant activities. Structural modifications at position 5
of the 1,3,4-thiadiazole scaffold (linked to a fixed antioxidant
thiol group at position 2 of the ring) was expected to give new
1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives with a broad spectrum of
biological antioxidant activity. The synthesis of these new
compounds was achieved through three different steps. Undoubted
elucidation and confirmation of the chemical structures of all
the newly synthesized compounds were accomplished using both the
spectroscopic (IR, 1H-NMR, and mass spectroscopy
(MS)) and elemental (C, H, and N) analyses. The pharmacological
screening for evaluation of the antioxidant activity of the new
thirteen target thiol compounds was done using in vitro
antioxidant screening by both 2,2'-azinobis
(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical cation
decolorization assay (ABTS test) and
2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl assay (DPPH test). The results of
both assays showed that three compounds (3b,d,h)
exhibited interestingly very high antioxidant activities and
they could be very promising lead and parent compounds for the
design and synthesis of new antioxidant agents by further in
vivo biological evaluation, structural modifications,
investigations, computational studies, and SAR establishment.

Abstract:
Background:
gastroenteritis is a common pediatric health problem. Antiemetics
are frequently prescribed, irrespective of the absence of
guideline recommendations to support this practice. Aim of
the work is to review the use of antiemetics for pediatric
AGE and to define prescribing patterns of physicians.
Methodology:
100 physicians from Damietta were included in the present study.
They were 77 pediatricians, 20 general practitioners and 3
emergency physicians. All physicians completed a standardized
written questionnaire. The questionnaire included certification,
frequency of gastroenteritis diagnosis at the last month and
pattern of and response to antiemetics. In addition, any adverse
effects or limiting factors for antiemetics use were recorded.
Results: 90% of physicians prescribed antiemetic in the
last month; 93% did not have any concern with prescription; 42%
do not prescribe antiemetic below certain age (6 months by 27%);
36% noted adverse effects and 99% prefer parenteral route. Most
physicians prefer ondansetron as first choice. Metoclopramide
was reported as first choice by emergency (33%) and general
practitioners (15%) more than Pediatricians (only 3%), with
significant difference. In addition, ondansetron was reported to
participate in recovery from vomiting other than other
antiemetics. Metoclopramide was reported to share
recovery from vomiting by GPs (25%) and emergency physicians
(33%) more than Pediatricians (6.5%), with significant
difference.
Conclusion:
Antiemetics are frequently used by all physicians of Damietta
governorate included in the present work for treatment of
vomiting in pediatric gastroenteritis. Ondansetron is the first
choice, and metoclopramide is used by general practitioners and
emergency doctors more than Pediatricians.

Abstract: This study
was carried out to evaluate and compare the vertical marginal
gap distance, and cyclic loading of all-ceramic crowns Vita
suprinity and IPs e.max CAD (CAD/CAM milling, Cerec MCXL), using
two types of finish lines (deep chamfer and radial shoulder).
Specially designed stainless steel dies were constructed and a
total number of 40 samples were constructed representing two
equal groups (20 samples), according to the type of materials
(VITA Suprinity and IPs E.max CAD “CAD/CAM milling technique
Cerec MCXL) The twenty samples were further divided into two
divisions (10 each) according to the type of the finish line
used (deep chamfer and radial shoulder). Each division was then
divided into two classes (5 each) (one class was constructed as
a crown coping and then veneered, the second one was constructed
as a full contoured crowns). Vita suprinity and IPs e.max CAD
crowns were fabricated following a standard procedure and
standard dimensions as controlled by the Cerec MCXL software. As
regard the vertical marginal gap test, the results showed that
IPs e.max CAD crowns regardless to finish line type and
veneering, recorded a higher vertical marginal gap mean value
(42.59±2.38 µm) than obtained with Vita Suprinity crowns
(36.11±1.76µm). Regardless to the production techniques and
veneering, deep chamfer finish line recorded a lower vertical
marginal gap mean value (37.94±2.11µm) than obtained with radial
shoulder finish line (40.77±2.33µm). Regardless to production
techniques and finish lines, full contoured crowns recorded a
lower vertical marginal gap mean value (38.34±2.36µm) than
obtained veneering (40.36±2.10µm). The cyclic loading test data
revealed that IPs e.max CAD crowns recorded a higher fracture
resistance mean value (1013±53.84N) than the load cycled crowns
(888.1±104.4N). Vita suprinity crowns recorded a higher fracture
resistance mean value (803.7±66.45N) than the load cycled crowns
(703.8±34.26N), regardless to finish line type and veneering.
The cyclic loading test data revealed that IPs e.max CAD crowns
recorded a higher fracture resistance mean value (1013±53.84N)
than the load cycled crowns (888.1±104.4N). Vita suprinity
crowns recorded a higher fracture resistance mean value
(803.7±66.45N) than the load cycled crowns (703.8±34.26N),
regardless to finish line type and veneering.

Abstract: Oil pollution has become a
global environmental issue in that oceanic ecosystems and inland
aquatic ecosystems are threatened greatly. The evaluation and
prediction of the effects of oil pollution on water environment
have become a very urgent and important issue. It has been
estimated that approximately 5 million tons of crude oil enters
the marine environment each year from a variety of sources
mostly known are the spills from shipwreck, but there are
several less conspicuous sources, like intentional flushing of
ship compartments, spills from oil rigs, oil from industries,
oil refineries, run-off from urban areas.

Abstract:
Rabies is a viral disease
that affects all warm blooded animals including humans and is
common in many geographical locations of the world including
Ethiopia. It is distributed all over the world affecting about
100 countries with more than 2.5 billion population except some
rabies free island states like UK, Japan and some developed
states like Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Greece,
and some others. The most affected countries of the world are
found in tropical Africa, Asia, South America, and Oceania. It
is a subject of concern mainly because of its zoonotic
importance. An estimated 50,000 to 60,000 humans die from rabies
every year. Most of the deaths due to rabies occur in developing
countries where canine rabies is endemic and dog biting is the
main mode of transmission. Rabid Dogs are the major vectors
responsible for the spread and transmission of rabies to humans
and other animals in Ethiopia. The situation of rabies and the
public’s knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) were studied and
reported from different parts of the country including from
North Gondar zone, Addis Ababa, Jimma town, Gomma district of
south west of Ethiopia, Bahir Dar town and eastern Ethiopia of
the Awash Basin. The current scenario in Ethiopia shows a
serious threat of canine rabies virus transmission in the
rapidly growing human population where a poorly controlled stray
dog population is equally growing fast. Poor public awareness
among the public towards rabies is considered as one of the
bottle necks for the prevention and control of the disease in
Ethiopia especially in canine rabies endemic cities. There is
huge gap in knowledge, attitude and practice of the Ethiopian
society with slight variability between regions, the least level
of awareness being seen in pastoral community. The failure to
receive PEP was a major factor in the number of human cases in
Ethiopia. The study shows high canine rabies burden, and lack of
sufficient awareness about the disease and high reliance on
traditional treatment that interfere with timely post exposure
management. Providing subsidized rabies vaccines for dogs and
PEP treatment for humans is essential to improve coverage and
utilization of modern, scientifically proven and effective
rabies control methods especially for poor rural farming and
pastoral communities. The practice of traditional healers must
be closely scrutinized and scientifically tested for efficacy

Abstract:
Normally it has been noticed that differential equation is
solved typically. The Laplace transformation makes it easy to
solve. The Laplace transformation is applied in different areas
of science, engineering and technology. The Laplace
transformation is applicable in so many fields. Laplace
transformation is used in solving the time domain function by
converting it into frequency domain. Here we have applied
Laplace transformation in linear ordinary differential equations
with constant coefficient and several ordinary equations wherein
the coefficients are variable. Laplace transformation makes it
easier to solve the problems in engineering applications and
makes differential equations simple to solve. In this paper we
will discuss the relation between beta and gamma function by
using Laplace transformation.

Review on Salmonellosis
Tsehaye Neges and Wudalew Abebe
Graduates of Veterinary Medicine, Collage of Veterinary of
Medicine and Animal Sciences, University of Gondar, Ethiopia,
P.O. Box. 196.
Abstract:
Salmonellosis
is an infectious disease of humans and animals caused by
organisms of the two species of Salmonella (Salmonella
enterica, and S. bongori). Although primarily
intestinal bacteria, and widespread in the environment and
commonly found in farm effluents, human sewage and in any
material subject to fecal contamination. Salmonellosis can be
found worldwide but seems to be most common where intensive
animal husbandry is practiced. Reservoirs also remain in wild
animals. Some Salmonella are geographically limited. Salmonella
species are transmitted via the fecal-oral route. The most
common mode of transmission is ingestion of food or water that
has been contaminated with human or animal feces thus; infection
remains a distressing public health concern worldwide. The
genetic make-up of the Salmonella strains permits their
adaptation in various environments, including human, animal and
non-animal hosts. This increases the difficulty in eliminating
the bacteria. The emergence of antimicrobial resistance in
Salmonella strains is a serious health problem worldwide,
Moreover, these multidrug resistant (MDR) Salmonella strains
poses a great challenge in terms of effective treatment of the
infections caused by these strains. Several preventive measures
have been proposed to stop the spread of Salmonella
infection, like proper food and water sanitation, pasteurization
of milk and other dairy products, and elimination human faces in
the food production these, restriction of indiscriminate use of
antibiotics in food animals is by far one of the most effective
measures. The objective of this paper was to review on the
epidemiology and zoonotic implication of Salmonella in human, as
well the mechanisms of resistance of Salmonella for
antimicrobial drugs.

Abstract:
Hyperlipidemia is the presence
of elevated lipid concentrations in the blood and it is
associated with many predisposing factors. Clinical field
trial was conducted from January 2017 to April, 2018, to
determine the most effective therapeutics for treatment of
hyperlipidemia in donkeys by ensuring the efficacy of different
concentrations and combination of dextrose. For this study, 15
adult male donkeys were selected in the study area, after
performing tentative diagnosis, screening test and confirming by
laboratory biochemical tests. Randomly assigned 15 animals in
the first, second, third and fourth groups with equal number of
3 were subjected to treatment with dextrose 5% plus prednisolone
5mg, dextrose 5%, dextrose 10% and dextrose 20% respectively and
the fifth group was positive control. Blood samples were
collected from jugular vein of donkeys, before and after
treatment. Hemoglobin concentration, packed cell volume, white
blood cells and red blood cells count were evaluated using
automated hemoanalyzer in all selected animals. Plasma was
tested for total proteins, albumin, triglycerides (TG), total
cholesterol, ALT, AST activity and glucose level. Heart rate,
respiratory rate and rectal temperature were also evaluated.
General health of animals and abnormal clinical signs were
recorded daily. ANOVA was used to test the efficacy of dextrose
between and within groups and paired t-test were used to test
efficacy of dextrose before and after treatment. When animals
were hyperlipidemic significantly increased of mean plasma ALT,
AST, Triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol level were observed
and significantly decreased in total protein, glucose and
albumin, when compared with normal baseline values. But when
animals were treated with dextrose intravenously in different
concentrations and combination, especially diseased animals were
treated with dextrose 5% plus prednisolone 5mg, the plasma ALT,
AST, Triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol level were
significantly decreased to normal level and total protein,
glucose and albumin, increased significantly to normal values.
Diseased animals which were treated with dextrose 5% alone had a
good response next to its combination with prednisolone.
Diseased animals were treated with dextrose 10% and 20% had no
significant change and the better drug (dextrose 5% plus
prednisolone 5mg) recommended to government and private
veterinary practitioners for the treatment of hyperlipidemia
disease conditions.
