Abstract : Juglans regia L. is considered as one of medical plants hasing biochemical activity to treat various diseases resulting from infection by some pathogenic micro-organisms. The current research was achieved to estimate and evaluate the medicinal activity of three phenolic compounds mixture containing 4- hydroxybenzaldeyhde, 5-(3-Hydroxypropyl)- 2,3-dimethoxy phenol and vanillic acid which were isolated and identified from Juglans regia L. cortex against four pathogenic fungi causing intestinal inflammatory in children. The phenolic mixture recorded values of inhibition zone diameters equal to 21, 30, 37, 51,52 and 52 mm at concentrations of 5, 10, 25, 50, 75, and 100 mg/ml respectively against growth of the pathogenic fungus represented by Candida albicans while the same concentrations gave inhibition values were 32, 39, 44, 46, 50 and 51 mm respectively towards Candida globate. In regard to Candida krusei, the phenolic mixture concentrations showed diameters of inhibition equal to 35, 41, 46, 53, 53 and 53 mm respectively while the values of same concentrations recorded inhibition values were represented by 25, 30, 35, 38, 52 and 52 mm against Candida tropicalis growth. The active phenolic metabolites compounds recorded a higher medicinal activity than some antibiotics used against these pathogens.

Abstract : Retrospective studies of facial injuries can provide database records that assist healthcare providers and related authorities in adopting justified policies for preventing, minimising and treating facial injuries. This review study aimed to evaluate maxillofacial fractures with respect to; etiological factors, patterns of fractures, treatment modalities, and treatment complications of patients sustained maxillofacial injuries in the Misan governorate of Iraq. The study reviewed 108 charts of patients admitted to the maxillofacial department at Al-Sadr teaching hospital between August 2015 to August 2017. Data was categorised into groups including; gender, age groups, ethological factors, patterns of fractures, treatment modalities, and complications. Statistical analysis was performed using Chi-square and Fisher’s exact test (p<0.05). The findings indicated that the most significant factors associated with maxillofacial fractures were attributed to road traffic accidents. Moreover, the mandible was more significantly fractured compared to other facial bones. Treatment with closed reduction was significantly more common than treatment with open reduction. Malocclusion was the most frequent complication compared to non-union and infection. In conclusion, road traffic accidents are the major causes of maxillofacial fractures in Misan governorate during the study period. Most of these fracturs affected the mandible whilst closed reduction was the main treatment strategy of choice. Complications were limited to malocclusion, non-union, and infection.

Abstract : The rising problem of non-communicable diseases fuelled by rapid urbanization and changing lifestyles recently has brought more challenges to its prevention and control. The World Health Organization reports NCDs to be by far the leading cause of mortality in the world, representing over 70% of all deaths. NCDs, are medical conditions which are non-infectious and non-transmissible between persons. These include cardiovascular diseases, cancers, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases and diabetes mellitus. Since NCDs are of slow progression and of long duration, workplace communities are key areas to the prevention and control by transforming work environment through policy making for occupational safety and health. This vision will materialize if NCD risk factors is well understood for every workplace environment. There are few studies which has investigated NCD risk factors at workplace environment. We evaluated NCD risks among employees in an educational institution in the Philippines. This is a cross sectional descriptive study which investigated 50 tenured regular employees who were more than 5 years in service in a private college. The employees' NCD risks were determined using the four key risk factors: status of smoking, status of alcohol drinking, unhealthy diet, and physical activity and the four intermediate risk factors: obesity, level of blood cholesterol and blood sugar and blood pressure. The lifestyle risks identified among the employees were physical inactivity (64%), and inadequate dietary fibre intake (62%). The proportion of smoking, and alcohol drinking among males is higher (50%) as compared to females (5%). Those identified as smokers were also identified as alcohol drinkers. Significant proportion of the employees have intermediate risk factors, high body mass index (52%), uncontrolled high blood pressure (32%) and high blood cholesterol (34%). Physical inactivity and inadequate dietary fiber intake should be addressed by promoting behavioral changes and by creating a supportive environment in the community. Healthy programs to combat obesity, hypertension and dyslipidaemia is highly recommended.

Abstract : The end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in Indonesia continues to increase. This causes an increase in the need for kidney transplants. Prior to 1994, open donor nephrectomy (ODN) was considered as a standard procedure for kidney donors. Open donor nephrectomy is a safe operation but this technique is associated with significant morbidity in terms of disability, cosmetics, leg injuries, incisional hernias, neuralgia, and lower back recovery. Higher procedure costs are also a major problem. Mini-incision donor nephrectomy (MODN) has now been developed as an option for donor nephrectomy. MODN has advantages including less postoperative pain, early recovery and fewer complications and later incisional hernias. The purpose of this study was to examine the number of arteries & estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) with the MODN surgery time. This is an observational, cross sectional study. Data collected from the medical records of patients who were transferred kidney transplants from January 2014 to December 2018 at the Kariadi General Hospital Semarang, Indonesia. There are 20 patients, 15 males and 5 females. Total donor relationships with related recipients were 15 patients, 5 were unrelated. The average ischemic time was 38.65 ± 1.81 minutes (range 36-42). Total patients do not need a blood transfusion after a kidney transplant. The average operating time is 58 ± 95 minutes (range 55-63). The average number of Arteries involved was 2.55 ± 0.69 (range 1-4), the average value of eGFR donors after surgery was 87.84 ± 1.36 (range 84.51 - 89.44). Data were analyzed by the Spearman test in SPSS version 23. This study showed that the operating time was significantly correlated with the number of arteries & eGFR (p <0.001). In conclusion, the operating time has a significant amount with the number of arteries & eGFR. The faster the time required for surgery, the higher the eGFR after surgery should have better results, and the fewer arteries involved during surgery will heal faster and will not cause complications.

Abstract : Among facial injuries mandible is the most commonly fractured bone. Parasymphysis is the most commonly fractured portion of mandible. The objective of the present study was to evaluate and determine the efficacy of 2D and 3D miniplates in treatment of anterior mandibular fractures. This randomized control clinical trial was carried out in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Nishtar Institute of Dentistry, Multan. Before starting the study, permission was taken from the Ethical Committee of Nishtar Institute of Dentistry. All the patients meeting inclusion criteria were chosen from Outpatient Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Nishtar Institute of Dentistry, Multan based on history, clinical examination and radiographs. Patients had been divided into two groups by using random number table i.e. group A with odd numbers and group B with even numbers. In-group A, conventional 2D miniplates and group B, 3D miniplates had been used for ORIF of anterior mandibular fractures. Infection, wound dehiscence, mobility and paresthesia would be assessed by clinical examination on the third postoperative day, after 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and at the end i.e. 3 months. When the effect of method of fixation was noted on the complications, it was found that method of fixation was significantly associated with the complications having p-value 0.0001. There were 70% complications rate in 2D fixation technique and 13.33% complications rate in 3D fixation technique. While the complication of mobility of fracture segments was not found in both techniques. The present study showed that efficacy of 3D miniplates was better than 2D miniplates in the anterior mandibular fractures.
