Abstract Backgroud: Calcaneum is the most commonly fractured tarsal bone. Approximately 75% are intra-articular fractures. Controversy continues regarding the management of calcaneal fractures. Earlier conservative management was preferred and surgical management considered inappropriate for these fractures. This trend is gradually changing with better understanding of disabling nature of injuries in combination with improved implant and […]

Abstract Background: Covid-19 pandemic affected maternal health directly by causing respiratory disease in pregnant women as well as indirectly by affecting health care delivery and caused sharp increase in maternal mortality. Aim: This study aimed to assess causes and contributing factors for maternal mortality during six months of Covid-19 lockdown. Methodology: This was a retrospective

Abstract Introduction: Previous caesarean section poses risk to both mother and neonates in the subsequent pregnancy. This study aimed to study the obstetric and neonatal outcome in a pregnancy with previous caesarean section (CS). Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted in pregnant women with previous CS, admitted from 15thOctober 2020 to 14thApril 2020. Collected

Abstract The epiretinal membrane (ERM) is a common vitreoretinal intersurface disorder in elderly individuals. The objective of the study was to evaluate the outcome of vitreoretinal surgery in patients with epiretinal membrane. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of thirteen eyes of 12 patients with ERM with mean age group of 63 ± 6.07 (53

Abstract Lack of early detection due to either unawareness of the disease process or inadequate monitoring device, and lack of availability of dantrolene makes it difficult to manage malignant hyperthermia (MH). It has been reported that the risk of mortality rate increased by 50 % if skin temperature rather than core temperature was monitored. We

Abstract The present work describes the synthesis of zinc nanoparticles using Pongamia pinnata leaf extract. The preparation of zinc nanoparticles by using pongamia pinnata leaf extract has desired quality with low cost and conventional method. The pongamia pinnata leaf extract was mixed with zinc nitrate hexahydrate solution by stirring and heating 60°C-80°C and the reduction

Abstract Objectives: Evaluation of uterine factors is an essential step in the diagnostic workup of subfertile couple. Intrauterine pathologies can impair implantation and hence reduce the endometrial receptivity. The advantage of hysteroscopy is that it not only allows direct observation and accurate localization of pathology but also provides therapeutic treatment for some pathologies in a

Abstract Turning operation is one of the important machining operations carried out in different manufacturing industries. Optimization of turning parameters is valuable to maintain accuracy, cost and time. Surface roughness and material removal rate measure quality and machining time respectively. In this paper response characteristics surface roughness and material removal rate are optimized using Taguchi

Abstract Knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAPs) regarding Human Immuno-deficiency Virus /Acquired Immuno-Deficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is one of the cornerstones in the fight against the disease. Construction workers and adjacent communities are vulnerable to infection because they are likely to engage in risky practices due to lack of adequate knowledge and information, compounded by other socio-economic

Abstract 3D printers are distinct from other manufacturing technologies in that they provide faster, easier, and less costly solutions, in addition, allowing the design of different complex configurations that need to overlap many normal manufacturing processes. Because of the significance of this technology, several countries have seen the benefit of spreading awareness of its significance
