Abstract Medical educators are in a continuous quest to close the gap between needs of medical practice and rising expectations communities their countries. During past two decades, competency-based education has been evolving as an appealing strategy this gap. In 2017, Egyptian authorities mandated all schools change curricula comply with revised national academic reference standards, which changed from outcome-based competency-based. parallel, they also timeline programs for six years...

Noradrenaline is an important neurotransmitter which regulates GnRH release from the median eminence in female rat during both basal secretion and preovulatory or steroid hormone‐induced GnRH‐mediated LH surge. However, it not clear at sites brain this predominantly stimulatory influence exerted nor known adrenergic receptor subtype(s) mediate(s) effects of noradrenaline. In order to determine if neurones septum‐diagonal band‐preoptic area and/or their axon terminals are direct targets for...

In ordinary circumstances, objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) is a resource-intensive assessment method. case of developing and implementing multidisciplinary OSCE, there no doubt that the cost will be greater.Through this study research project was conducted to develop, implement evaluate OSCE model within limited resources.This went through steps blueprinting, station writing, resources reallocation, implementation finally evaluation.The developed implemented in Primary...

Long intergenic non-coding RNA, regulator of reprogramming ( LINC-ROR) is a newly identified cytoplasmic long RNA (lncRNA), which has been found to be dysregulated in different cancers. The present work aimed quantify LINC-ROR expression profile and assess the tumor proteins p53 caspase 3 expressions glioblastoma tissue specimens compared non-cancer tissues, correlate these levels with available clinicopathological survival data.LINC-ROR relative 57 cancer tissues 10 was quantified by...

Pulsatile gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release from the median eminence is critical for appropriate function of pituitary gonadotropes and generation a preovulatory gonadotropin surge. The mechanisms by which many GnRH axon terminals are synchronized to in coordinated fashion into capillaries primary plexus unknown as anatomical sites at regulation neurons takes place. While neurotransmitters have been shown influence release, it not clear if such regulate directly through synaptic...

There are currently 22 public and 2 private medical schools in Egypt, which graduate around 10,000 physicians annually. While Kasr Al-Eini (Cairo University) is the oldest one; established 1827, Suez Canal Faculty of Medicine (FOM/SCU) first to adopt an integrated, student centered, problem- community-based curriculum since its inauguration 1978. Apart from Port Said school, was 2013, remaining either generally conventional teacher-centered subject-based curricula or starting introduce...

Faculty of Medicine, Suez Canal University is adopting an innovative curriculum. Evidence-based medicine (EBM) has been integrated into problem based learning (PBL) sessions as a responsive paradigm for the practice and teaching clinical medicine.To integrate EBM in sixth-year students, to assess students' tutor satisfaction with this change.EBM training was conducted students (196) including four theoretical, eight practical sessions. Sixteen educational scenarios (problems) were...

Burn injuries constitute a major health problem which cause more severe physiological stress than other traumas. Aloe vera has been used in traditional medicine for long time burn treatment. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have delivered new approaches to the management of deep burns. The present study assessed effect aloe versus MSCs on experimentally induced second-degree burn.Sixty adult female albino rats randomized into 6 groups: group I served as negative control, II received topical...

Background: The Faculty of Medicine, Suez Canal University clinical skills lab was established in 1981 as the first Egypt to cope with innovation medical education adopted since school inauguration 1978.

Introduction: Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that has no definitive cure till present. Currently; regenerative medicine using Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) offers promising treatment. Meanwhile, Nigella Sativa Oil (NSO) shows effectiveness for medication of various illnesses. Objective: This study compares the antidiabetic effect MSCs vs. NSO on streptozotocin induced type 1 diabetes (T1D) in rat model. Methods: Human cord blood samples were collected.
