BackgroundHypertension is considered the most important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, but its control poor worldwide. We aimed to assess availability and affordability of blood pressure-lowering medicines, association with use these medicines pressure in countries at varying levels economic development.MethodsWe analysed availability, costs, data recorded from 626 communities 20 participating Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiological (PURE) study. Medicines were available if they...
Abstract Background The frequency of dysphagia varies considerably across literature. Post-stroke is a common cause increased morbidity and length hospitalization. This study aimed to estimate the frequency, risk factors following first-ever ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke its neuroradiological correlation. Methods Two hundred fifty patients (180 70 strokes) with were recruited within 72 h onset. Detailed history, neurological examination, computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance done...
The early imbalances of trace elements in type 1 diabetes (T1D) may cause disturbance glucose metabolism and more oxidative stress that enhance the development insulin resistance diabetic complications. We aim to evaluate serum level selenium (Se), zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), copper (Cu), degree their relations glycemic control children with T1D.A case-control study which included 100 40 healthy age, sex, ethnicity-matched as a group. were divided into poor good controlled patients according...
Abstract Background Depression and anxiety are non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD) that often overlooked underrated. This study aimed to highlight the frequency risk factors depression among subjects with PD. Methods Sixty-four patients PD who were diagnosed according United Kingdom Disease Society (UKPDS) Brain Bank Criteria 50 sex- age-matched healthy control evaluated for anxiety. severity staging assessed using Unified Rating Scale (UPDRS) Hoehn Yahr scale. DSM-IV TR criteria...
Background and purpose:In a previous study we found high crude prevalence rate (CPR) for Parkinson's disease (PD) in Assiut governorate/Egypt. We therefore surveyed second Nile valley governorate (Qena) to provide confirmatory evidence the of PD Egypt.Subjects methods:10 areas Qena were selected by random sampling recruit 8027 inhabitants. Positive cases identified using modified screening questionnaire, unified Parkinson rating scale (UPDRS), mini-mental state examination (MMSE) non-motor...
Abstract Rice seeds ( Oryza sativ a L.) have been treated with cold atmospheric plasma in air both directly dielectric barrier discharge and indirectly by gliding arc activated mist. Comparisons of impacts the two methods on rice germination physiological parameters are presented. Plasma has found to increase hydrophilization water uptake through decrease liquid contact angle total surface free energy seed’s coat. Germination their seedling growth enhanced application. After 20 min direct...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant status plasma vitamin E and intracellular coenzyme Q10 in children with type 1 diabetes. This case–control conducted on 72 diabetes compared 48 healthy children, who were age, sex, ethnicity-matched. diabetic divided according their glycosylated hemoglobin (A1c %) into two groups: poor good glycemic control groups. All underwent full history taking, clinical examination, laboratory measurement complete blood count, A1c %, cholesterol,...
Background . There is no gold standard test for diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) associated infantile wheezing. Objectives To evaluate the value bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) pepsin assay in GERD wheezy infants. Methods Fifty-two infants were evaluated using esophageal combined impedance-pH (MII-pH) monitoring, esophagogastroduodenoscopy with biopsies, and BAL pepsin. Tracheobronchial aspirates from 10 healthy planned surgery without history respiratory problems examined...
Objective of the study: To evaluate value serum creatine phosphokinase-brain specific (CK-BB) and urinary lactate/creatinine (L/C) ratio as early indicators brain damage in full-term newborns with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Patients methods: A case–control study including 25 new-born infants perinatal asphyxia who were admitted to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) a proven diagnosis HIE, compared 20 healthy age- sex-matched newborns. All newborn subjected full history taking,...
Background and Purpose: There is little information on the acute cerebrovascular complications of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Egypt. The aim this study was to estimate proportion (CVD) among COVID-19 patients evaluate their clinical radiological characteristics comparison with non-COVID-19 CVD. Materials Methods: In a retrospective study, whom presented CVD Assiut Aswan University Hospitals were compared non-COVID-19, patients, admitted Qena Hospital, prior pandemic. following...
Background: Ocular chemical burns induce devastating and permanent damage to the ocular surface. Rapid intervention is required for maximal visual rehabilitation. Amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) may save surface, however it introduces a potentially unnecessary surgical trauma in such compromised eyes. extracts (AME) could be practical substitute of AMT acute burn. Aim: To evaluate efficacy topical AME management Methods: Non-comparative interventional case series. Six eyes 4...
The purpose of this study was to illustrate the association between vascular endothelial growth factor level and pulmonary artery hypertension in children with β-thalassemia major.This case-control conducted on 116 major; 58 them had hypertension. They were compared healthy who age sex-matched (control group). Serum levels echocardiographic assessment done for all children.Vascular serum significantly higher major than those without hypertension, as well control groups (p<0.001). Vascular a...
Abstract Background Primary Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection presents typically with features of infectious mononucleosis (IM) but it may present atypical symptoms. We aim to evaluate the epidemiological, clinical and laboratory characteristics primary EBV in children western Saudi Arabia. Methods A retrospective analysis electronic data all who were admitted hospital tested for EBV-viral capsid antigen (VCA) IgM period from 1 January 2018 31 December 2019. All positive EBV-VCA collected....

The purpose of this study was to illustrate the association between vascular endothelial growth factor level and pulmonary artery hypertension in children with β‐thalassemia major. This case–control conducted on 116 major; 58 them had hypertension. They were compared healthy who age sex‐matched (control group). Serum levels echocardiographic assessment done for all children. Vascular serum significantly higher major than those without hypertension, as well control groups (p < 0.001). a...
341 Background: The surgical outcome of patients with borderline resectable or locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (BRPC/LAPC) treated stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is unclear. Methods: A comparative study was performed to determine if outcomes were different among receiving neoadjuvant SBRT vs chemoradiation (CRT) chemotherapy only. Results: Between 2011 and 2014, 29 BR/LA-PDAC underwent (6.6 Gy x 5 fractions) followed by pancreatectomy. Eighteen (62%) had LAPC....
To examine the effect of humidity on operation dielectric barrier discharge (DBD), we tested electric characteristics an atmospheric DBD in flowing helium between two parallel plates covered by water mist. With increasing relative (RH) levels, signal current indicated different behaviors discharge. The began as a multipeak Townsend at low levels. After RH injected mist, width and amplitude microdischarges decreased until they reached diffuse free from microdischarges. gradually decreasing...
