Overview of ultrasound in pregnancy benefits and complications[ ]


Ultrasound assumed as a very safe and riskless screening, in this review we discuss the benefits, as well as negative aspects of US and risk factors. We performed comprehensive search using biomedical databases; Medline, and Embase, for studies concerned with ultrasound in pregnancy assessment published with English language up to, October 2017.The sounds waves utilized in standard ultrasound scans are unknowned to be dangerous to either mother or child. However, ultrasound can be harmful if it finds unclear outcomes or abnormalities. This can make individuals feel anxious and worried and might also indicate that more evaluations are needed. These extra examinations can be intensive and sometimes have severe effects that are difficult for the parents-to-be to cope with. But the ultrasound scan can also give the impression that the unborn child is developing normally even though it does have health problems. The expectant parents falsely assume that their baby is healthy. It could after that be quite a shock if their kid is born fully unexpectedly with serious health problems or anomalies. Furthermore, not all scan results are clear and not all problems that are identified during an ultrasound evaluation can be treated. This can be unsettling, difficult to manage and require difficult decisions to be made. If there are indications that the unborn child might be physically or mentally disabled, the concern of whether to abort or continue the pregnancy could occur. This can lead to internal conflict.

Overview of Plate Osteosynthesis for different bones fractures[ ]


The purpose of this article is to provide a brief overview of the history of plate as it relates to the development of the latest minimally invasive surgical techniques. Keywords: Internal fixation, plate, surgical techniques. We conducted a comprehensive literature search of related studies to Plate Osteosynthesis for different bones fractures, through database, PubMed (Midline) to the period of December 2017, using Mesh terms as following; Plate Osteosynthesis, bones fractures. The concepts of 'biological fixation' continue to evolve. New plate designs and plating techniques will possibly contribute to improved rates of fracture union, reduced rates of infection, and reduced occurrences of postoperative complications. Future fundamental and clinical studies will additionally identify the usefulness of and indicators for these methods. Biological osteosynthesis with conservation of the vascularity of the bone fragments by indirect reduction and less invasive implants results in an improvement in bone recovery which can be proven histomorphologically Dynamic plate osteosynthesis is a good choice for the stabilization of certain tibial and femoral fractures. It is an important option to intramedullary nailing, especially for distal fractures close to the joint. Management of fractures complicated by localized osteoporosis in the existence of nonunion presents a peculiar scenario in resource-poor countries. Orthopedic surgeons in developing countries have to come out with solutions as they are daily confronted with these problems.

Overview of low birth weight and developmental milestones[ ]


In this review we discuss incidence and consequence of low birth weight and it is also one of the reasons for preterm birth and developmental milestones, which can lead to death. MIDLINE, Google Scholar, and EMBASE databases were comprehensively searched for low birth weight and developmental milestones related articles published before to December 2017. Low birth weight (LBW) is among the main predictors of infant mortality. There are many known risk aspects, the most essential of which are socio-economic factors, medical risks prior to or during gestation and maternal way of lives. Nevertheless, although interventions exist to avoid many of these aspects prior to and while pregnant, the occurrence of LBW has not decreased. The first years of development are important for long-lasting learning and development. Milestones follow predictable courses in infants and kids, and later developmental skills build on previous ones achieved. Understanding normal development is essential for the pediatrician to be able to recognize delayed development. Developmental screening identifies developmental delays at a time period where official assessment and intervention would be beneficial. Kids with worldwide developmental delay have delays in several domains of development, while children with particular delay may have a delay in only one region of development such as language or motor skills.

Asthmatic attack management in primary care by family doctors[ ]


Asthma impacts about 7.5% of the adult population. Evidence-based diagnosis, tracking, and treatment can improve operating and quality of life in adult patients with asthma. It usually starts in youth, particularly before the age of 6. Atopy, specified as a measurable immunoglobulin E (IgE) titer to 1 or more antigens, exists in the majority of these patients and contributes to the advancement of asthma, as well as allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis. Other functions recommending an immunologic basis for youth asthma are the high rates of instant skin test reactions to molds and other breathed in allergens4 and an association in between serum IgE levels, skin test reactivity, and asthma. Furthermore, control of allergens brings considerable relief for many patients. For unknown factors, disease remission is common in this group (a longitudinal research study found a rate of 66%). Asthma takes place in adults, even at an advanced age, especially with specific professions, tobacco smoke direct exposure, female sex, weight issues, or existing upper breathing disease. In adults, the disease can represent enduring disease acquired in youth or be a various, late-onset disorder associated with minimized lung function and fixed breathing system clog. Treatment of these 2 groups consists of patient education, nonpharmacologic techniques, and avoidance of getting worse or relieving elements. Pharmacologic treatments have to be concentrated on fast relief of symptoms, normally with bronchodilators, and control of chronic inflammation, typically with breathed in or oral corticosteroids. Frequent reevaluation is needed as problems and symptoms are brought under control, and recommendation to a lung professional must be considered for those with extreme symptoms or routine worsenings.

Efficiency and safety of corticosteroid in pericarditis: Review [ ]


An improved understanding of how pericarditis develops is critical to prevent this complication, and further research is needed into the pathogenesis of recurrences. We discuss the aetiology and diagnosis of pericarditis, and extensively review the corticoid treatment options for this condition and it's indication and side effects. We conducted a literature search through Scopus, Medline, and PubMed databases independently for all English language publish studies up to December 2017, search was performed using the terms “(pericarditis) AND (corticosteroids) AND (treatment). Corticosteroid treatment was previously the initial choice for treating pericarditis with pericardial effusions or recurrences not reacting to aspirin or NSAIDs. Corticosteroids could usually be effectively utilized to accomplish quick control of symptoms and decrease of pericardial effusion. Nonetheless, more just recently, this therapy has been shown to be associated with more negative results, potentially a more prolonged illness course, especially if used at high dosages. The reported negative effects include enhanced appetite, acne, mood changes and mental health issue (depression, anxiety, insomnia), muscle weakness, fatty deposits in the face, stretch marks across the body (Cushing syndrome), osteoporosis, diabetes mellitus, systemic arterial hypertension, glaucoma and cataract, enhanced risk of infections, and damaged growth in children. All these adverse effects have been reported in patients with recurring and chronic types of pericarditis after prolonged treatment with corticosteroids.

Improving the family doctor's roles in influenza vaccination in primary care: Review[ ]


Vaccination is the best method for the prevention and control of influenza. Vaccination can reduce illness and lessen severity of infection. This review focuses on how currently licensed influenza vaccines work, why the biology of influenza poses vaccine challenges, and vaccine approaches. A comprehensive search was performed to identify studies published in PubMed and the Cochrane database up to December 2017, in English language and involving human subject only and recently published abstracts were also reviewed our search was for detection of studies that discussing the roles in influenza vaccination in primary care. Licensed seasonal TIV and LAIV displayed a mean efficiency of 60% in healthy adults and 83% in children, respectively in recent meta-analyses. However, when the match between the vaccine strain and circulating epidemic strain is poor, or when a new pandemic virus emerges, these vaccines fail to give optimal security. The IIV does not cause robust resistance in the senior and LAIV is just licensed for people as much as the age of 49 years, leaving the most vulnerable section of the population poorly protected. Influenza vaccines must protect any age groups, particularly those most vulnerable to complications of severe influenza. Ideally, new vaccines should enhance the breadth of the immune reaction to include antigenically unique viruses within the same subtype and viruses of other subtypes, should not be produced in eggs, and should require much less time to manufacture than presently licensed technologies. The ultimate goal of an universal influenza vaccine is to safeguard versus all influenza A viruses, preventing the requirement for yearly revaccination. Several promising techniques are under advancement to improve or overcome the drawbacks of the currently licensed vaccines and to induce broad immunity against various other subtypes of influenza with pandemic potential.
