Abstract:
The micropaleontological information of Duwi section at Qusseir
area, Red Sea coast of Egypt, indicates that the Paleocene-early
Eocene succession bears prolific and well preserved
index-species of benthic foraminifera with Midway-Type Fauna (MTF)
of middle-outer neritic environment is interpreted. Forty two
samples are collected from this Early Paleogene succession. This
succession is attributed to the shaley marl sediments belonging
to the upper part of the Dakhla Shale and Esna Shale formations
as well as Tarawan Chalk between them. The Paleogene succession
is unconformably overlying the Maastrichtian part of the Dakhla
Shale. One hundred Lagenid and Rotaliid foraminiferal species
and subspecies belonging to forty nine genera are identified and
forty five species of them are illustrated from Duwi section in
two plates (1, 2). One out of the Laginid illustrated species is
believed to be new: Lagena rawdhae. The duration of the
hiatus at the Cretaceous /Paleogene (K/P) boundary includes the
two early Danian planktic biozones (P0 and Pα, about 0.02 Ma).
This depositional gap is corresponding to an interval of
tectonic activity that exists in most localities in the world.
In this study, an attempt is made to present some details in
paleontology (Paleocene-Eocene Lagenid and Rotaliid benthic
foraminifera), stratigraphy and paleogeography from Duwi
section, and some other localities in the Tethys.

Abstract:
Background:
Making a secure connection between the hepatic duct and the
jejunum is an essential surgical procedure. since its
introduction, by Dahl in 1909, hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) has been
established as an essential step of many surgical procedures.
like bile duct injuries, pancreatic, bile duct or liver
resections, liver transplantations, also it is used as a
palliative bypass in non-resectable tumours. Failure of this
anastomosis may lead to considerable morbidities or even
mortality. Methods: It is a retrospective cohort study,
including patients underwent HJ in Al-Demerdash Hospital, from
January 2017 to June 2018. All recruited patients underwent
hepatico-jejunostomy for benign or malignant disorders. The
anastomoses were done using monofilament absorbable sutures, and
according to the technique of suturing the study population were
divided into 2 groups; Group A where interrupted sutures (IS)
were done and Group B where continuous sutures (CS) were done.
Primary outcome was to compare operative time and number of
full-length sutures used in both groups. Secondary outcome was
to compare the complication rates between the 2 groups (the
leakage, cholangitis, abscess formation and the incidence of
stricture within the first year postoperative). Results:
The 43 patients were divided into Group A (n=23) and Group B
(20), females ere predominate in both groups. The time required
to complete the anastomosis was longer in the IS group (Group
A), where it ranged from 22 to 34 minutes (mean = 27.56 minutes,
SD =3.7), while it ranged in CS group from 11 to 23 minutes
(mean = 18.85 minutes, SD = 3.2), t = 8.11, this difference was
statistically significant with p< 0.001, also number of
full-length sutures were more in IS group. Conclusion:
Continuous suturing technique significantly reduce the time
required to complete the anastomosis and the number of
full-length sutures needed to do the job, this means a reduction
of the total operative time and cost, with no detectable
increase in complications.

Differences Between Closed and Opened Exposure of Palatally
Impacted Maxillary Canines: A Review
Adel Alharbi
Department of Orthodontic and Pediatric Dentistry, College of
Dentistry, Qassim University
Dr.Adel.alharbi@qudent.org
Abstract:
Palatally impacted maxillary canines was found to be more
commonly occurring than labially impacted canines. Proper
orthodontic treatment of such cases necessitates the utilization
of a proper method for surgical exposure of the canine. The open
and closed exposure techniques are the currently available
methods. Open exposure is done by uncovering the crown of the
impacted canine and a periodontal pack is placed until mucosal
healing occur around the exposed crown. The closed exposure
technique implies raising a flap and exposure of the crown
followed by bonding an attachment with chain or ligature wire
then the flap is sutured with the chain bulging throughout the
mucosa to allow for orthodontic traction. No major differences
were found between the two techniques in terms of rates of
success, complications during treatment, esthetics, time of
treatment and periodontal health. In most cases conflicting
results were found if any differences occurred between the two
methods. However, there is some evidence that the need to repeat
surgery is slightly higher in the closed exposure technique.
Based on the current literature we cannot recommend certain
surgical technique over the other.

Abstract: Introduction: Clomiphene citrate
(CC) is a synthetic estrogen receptor modulator that excites or
suppresses estrogenic responses regarding tissue category. CC
acts as a super-ovulatory drug prescribed in female infertility
managing. Though, pregnancy rates after CC treatment are little,
usually due to the induced morphological alterations of the
uterus caused by the usage of this medication. Aim of the
work: This work
was planned to study the histological changes albino rat
endometrium under the effect of CC treatment. Materials and
methods: Twenty one adult female albino rats were
distributed into three groups. Group I was the control group.
Group II received 1 mg/kg/day CC for 4 days, while group III was
left to recover after receiving CC. Uterine
H
& E, periodic acid–Schiff (PAS), and caspase3stained sections
were subjected to light microscopic and image analyzer
examinations. The measured records underwent statistical
analysis. Results: CC treated animals exhibited
increase in the uterine wall thickness with increase in the
height and width of the endometrial folds, dilated lumen with
patches of hypertrophied surface epithelium (endometrial
hyperplasia) and pseudo-stratification, vacuolated cytoplasm and
vesicular nuclei with prominent nucleoli. Majorrise in the PAS
ocular concentration of the lining epithelium was noticed, but
caspase reaction zoneratio displayed a significant alteration in
treated groups paralleled to the control group. Conclusion:
CC treated female albino rats are liable to embedding
interference and pregnancy failure due to histological
alterations of the normal uterine endometrium.

Abstract: Background:
The
review of literature showed that
PCOM represents 16-25% of apparently normal women, it is also
called isolated polycystic ovarian Morphology (PCOM) and it is
found to be an intermediate subclinical androgenic ovarian
dysfunction, so there is a risk of development of PCOS in the
future. Objectives: To detect the prevalence of isolated
polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) in eumenorrheic women
without hyperandrogenism, attending Mansoura University Hospital
(MUH) (tertiary hospiltal in Egypt). Subjects and methods:
An observational prospective study was conducted on 156
eumenorrhiec, nonhyperandrogenic women. Cases were presented
with vaginal discharge, seeking for fertility, postcoital
bleeding etc. These cases
were subdivided into 2 groups; 20 women with Isolated PCOM group
and other group included 136 women without isolated PCOM. All
the cases underwent full history taking, full examination and
trans-vaginal ultrasonography. Results: The prevalence of
isolated PCOM was 12.8% among the included women in the study
(20 of 156 cases). The prevalence of isolated PCOM decreased
with increasing age in comparison with non PCOM group
(P-value=0.13). Body mass index was significantly increased in
isolated PCOM (P-value= 0.003). Premature pubarche was
significantly increased in patients with isolated PCOM (P-value=
0.001). Infertility was significantly more evident in patients
with isolated PCOM (P-value= 0.001). Positive family history of
PCOS and DM was significantly increased in these patients
(P-value <0.001,0.001, respectively). Conclusion:
Isolated PCOM is prevalent in 12.8% among eumenorrhiec women
without hyperandrogenism attending MUH which is more associated
with obese, prematurepubarche, young age and positive family
history of PCOS
& DM. Recommendatons:
Further multicentric studies of isolated polycystic ovarian
morphology with larger numbers are recommended.

dr.thameralnwabeat@gmail.com
Abstract:
The
leadership leads the team
works to achieve the responsibilities
via the managers or team leaders. The visualization
and leadership philosophies translated into activities
directed by the managers enable the accomplishment of
tasks. The leadership in the administrations
allocates the authority and autonomy through levels
of hierarchy. The leadership qualities and talents are enhanced
on different levels of the structural hierarchy of the business.
The difficulties are created due to the absence of leadership
abilities of executives in the management team while the
leadership qualities of the managers evade the chances of
conflicts and problems. To study the impact of leadership of
managers on the act of the team members in a team, research will
be carried out. The leadership of the managers will be studied
to evaluate how and to which extent the performance of the team
members is influenced via the leadership of the managers.
The research objective is to study the relationship between the
leadership of managers and team management competence in the
business. The expressive research will be carried out to study
upshot of leadership of managers on the team management. The
relationship between the leadership of directors and performance
of team adherents in managing the teams will be measured.

Abstract:
Background: The
severity of hepatitis HPgV and the incidence is not established
clearly in Africa. Molecular estimation and analysis of
phylogenic tree of nucleotides and amino acids of viruses HBV,
HIV, HPGV and HCV proposed an association amide the different
viruses. Though, there are a closer relationship in amino acid
sequence was found among HCV and HPGV viruses, whereas, its
association with other hepatitis viruses is not cleared until
now. Yet its co-infection with HIV suppressed the growth and
multiplication of HIV, so diminishing the development of HIV
sero-positive individuals into AIDS. Conversely, HPGV as
hepatotrophic virus must given an attention to be screened and
studied Objective: The study was to establish the
prevalence of HPGV, its socio-demographic risk factors and its
co-infection with HBsAg, HCVAb and HIV among blood donors in
Kano, Nigeria. Methods: A total of 400 blood donors from
3 health facilities in Kano were examined for HBsAg and HCVAb by
rapid strip immuno-chromatography technique, while, HIV was
examined by Nigerian algorism (UNI-GOLD and STAT PACK HIV test
kits and HPgV by Ag-based ELISA technique). Socio-demographic
data were collected from each participant by a closed-ended
questionnaire. Results: The socio-demographic data
revealed that 167 (41.8%), their ages ranged from 25-32years,
males representing 76.2% (n=319) and females representing 20%
(n=81), with 253 (63.2%) married. The level of education of
participants was 40.5% 1ry level and 34.8% were traders. The
incidence of hepatitis GB virus C among blood donors was 0.8%.
Positive results for HPgV was (R =.071) for HBsAg, (R =0.135)
for HCVAb and (R=0.299) for HIV. a A significant relationship (P
=....) was found among HPGV and coexistence of HIV. The ages of
positive HPGV test participants in one male and two females were
ranged from 17 to 24 and from 25 to 32 years. Conclusion:
The presence of HPgV of 3 (0.8%) among blood donors in Kano,
proposed its rate at a higher percentage amide the general
public in the society. The co-existence of HPGV with HIV, HBV
and HCV amide the blood donors proposed its co-existence with a
higher rates between the high risk groups for HCV, HIV and HBV
infections. Recommendation: Further community-based
survey, particularly among the high risk groups, is recommended
to establish the prevalence and the socio-demographic factors
associated with HPGV infection in the study area.

Abstract:
Provision of
optimal nutritional support to children in PICU is important for
optimizing nutritional management, yet challenging because of a
variety of factors. Previous nutritional status, degree of
malnutrition, and variability in disease states differ
significantly among PICU patients (1) Furthermore, optimal
nutritional delivery sustains function of the cardiovascular,
respiratory, and immune systems until the acute phase
inflammatory response resolves (2) The provision of
optimal nutritional care is based on accurate estimations of
patients’ resting energy expenditure. The latter can be
calculated with the use of predictive equations or measured with
indirect calorimetry (IC). Owing to their ease of use,
mathematical equations have largely replaced IC in clinical
practice (3).
Objectives:
The objective
of this work is to evaluate Schofield equation for calculation
of resting energy expenditure in non-ventilated critically ill
infants and children.
Methods: 40 non-ventilated critically ill infants and
children given their caloric needs according to Schofield
equation with multiplying by stress and activity factors and
nutritional assessment that included anthropometric measurements
and laboratory investigations was done weekly for 3 weeks.
Conclusion: Enteral nutrition does not require special
preparation, and it can be started and modified at any time with
minimal complications. Moreover, Schofield equation as a
predictive equation for estimating energy expenditure in
critically ill children with multiplying by stress and activity
factors under-estimated the energy requirements during the first
week of critical illness and accurately estimated the energy
expenditure during the second week and the 3rdweek of critical
illness.

Abstract:
One of the recent trends to
improve plant productivity under abiotic stress and biotic
stress is the use of rhizobacteria. Accordingly, this study is
based on the isolation of rhizobacteria from several different
locations from Mecca region and to identify the ability of these
bacterial isolates to indole acetic acid (IAA) production and
nitrogen fixation. As the results indicated that all isolates
(16 isolates) have the ability to produce IAA, while the ability
of nitrogen fixation varied. The bacterial isolates were
classified into three groups based on the strength of their
ability to nitrogen fixation. The results also revealed that the
increase in tomato germination increasing with PGPR treated
seeds over control. These results were a good indicator for
using the activity of Bacillus simplex ET1,
B. megaterium NT1 and
B.

Abstract: Background:
Coronary targets’ quality is
a standard concern to surgeons while performing coronary bypass
surgery, due to ongoing advances in interventional techniques,
quality of the target vessels has become a major concern while
performing coronary artery bypass grafting procedure. One of
frequently attempted tactics is LAD reconstruction by a long on
lay patch created by the internal mammary artery, the aim of
this research is to evaluate the outcome of LAD reconstruction
using this technique. Methods: This descriptive analysis
was conducted retrospectively and the study was held between
January 2014 and January 2018, it was instituted to involve a
group of 105 patients who underwent coronary bypass surgery
which entailed LAD reconstruction by internal mammary graft in
the form of on lay patch. One year Follow up by multi-slice CT
angiographic catheterization was performed in 46 cases (46.9%).
Results: The mean length of the LIMA to LAD anastomosis
was 3.9±1.7 cm. In-hospital mortality was (1.9%). Postoperative
morbidities included low cardiac output (11.4%) and myocardial
infarction (1.9%) during ICU stay. One year Follow-up revealed
freedom from cardiac or cerebrovascular events (90.8%), LIMA to
LAD patency rate after surgery (92.3%) and survival rate
(97.9%). Conclusion: Reconstruction of a poor quality LAD
by a mammary patch is a safe and performable technique, our one
year evaluation in this study was adequate to establish that
procedure as an applicable option in cases with diffusely
diseased coronary targets.

Abstract:
This
study aims at evaluating the percentages of some heavy metals in
Erucasativax
samples
Irrigated with water of Chari River in Chad which is mixed with
(untreated) wastewater in Ndjamena City, and to evaluate the
health impact on consumers of those vegetables. The study
handled evaluation of the percentages of five hazardous heavy
metals; namely (cadmium, zinc, manganese, iron and nickel) using
photometer Palintest 5000 in soil, plant and water labs in Chad
Agricultural Research Institute as a result of spread of their
projection sources from the site of the study, in addition to
their hazard and high toxicity. Soil was reclaimed (twice) on
the banks of Chari River. Area of 9 square meters (3x3 m) was
used, definitely in the site of (untreated) wastewater drainage
channel of Central Hospital in Ndjamena. Results of chemical
analyses of heavy metals (Cadmium Cd, Zinc Zn, Manganese Mn,
Iron Fe, Nickel Ni). Percentages of those heavy metals in
Erucasativax samples irrigated with river water exceed the
allowed limits according to the standards of World Health
Organization, Food and Agriculture Organization, Chinese
Environment Protection Agency and European Community (. The
study addressed the health problems that result from use of
those polluted vegetables such as high percentage of urea,
hypertension, loss of conscience, emergency fever such as
vomiting, muscle strain, kidney failure, lung diseases,
Osteoporosis and interruption
of kidney functions. The research paper ended by scientific and
practical conclusions and recommendations for avoidance
of those risks. Required analyses were done in accordance with
the standard methods, and every experiment was repeated three
times, then results were expressed in average value + standard
deviation plus or minus standard deviation. XLSTAT2014 program
was used to conduct the statistical analysis of results and took
reliability level of those results at P<0.05.
