They are usually unique lesions, although cases of multiple cranial cavernomas have been described. They usually have a size at the time of diagnosis that ranges between 15 and 25 mm, although lesions of up to 8 cm diameter have been described. Its origin is in the vessels of the diploic space, and their blood…
The diagnostic evaluation of suspected Cushing’s syndrome should proceed in a systematic order to rule out exogenous cause, to confirm the cortisol excess state, categorize it as ACTH dependent or independent, and localize the lesion. After ruling out exogenous exposure to glucocorticoids with 8 am cortisol levels, the screening tests for Cushing’s syndrome include ONDST…
The immune system encompasses two wings— innate immunity and adaptive immunity — both work in harmony to help the body fight diseases The branch of innate immunity (nonspecific, natural immunity) has various roles in physiological and pathological states, in part, it’s located in the foreground defense against infections and is implicated in tissue maintenance and…
The distribution of patients by sex showed that the female sex was predominant with 62% (55/88) against 38% (33/88) for the male sex. The sex ratio (male/female) was 0.6 (Table 1). These rates are similar to those reported in Morocco by Ismaël in his doctoral thesis in medicine, with 56.51% women and 43.49% men. Similarly,…
Sun drying is a method suitable for some flowers like Chrysanthemum, Carnations, etc. in which flowers are hung in the air with rope in sunshine. It is the method to keep the advantage over air drying in the sense that there is less shrinkage in dried products as well as their diameter, and looking appearance…
Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing Campylobacter isolates were tested for their susceptibility to thirteen antimicrobial agents in accordance with CLSI 2016 recommendations [5]. These antibiotics are amickacin(AK) 30 μg/disk, amoxicillin(AX) 30μg/disk, ampicillin (AM) 10 μg/disk, cephalothin(KF) 30 μg /disk, chloramphenicol(C) 10 μg/disk, ciprofloxacin(CIP) 5 μg/disk, clindamycin(DA) 5 μg/disk, erythromycin(E) 15 μg/disk, gentamicin(CN) 10, nalidixic acid(NA) 30 μg/disk,…
