Cadaveric dissection has remained an integral part of anatomical education globally; hence, the profiles cadavers, their gross tissue and microbial integrity great implication in education. This study determined profiles, cadavers used South-western Uganda (SWU) medical schools. A cross-sectional was carried out for three months anatomy microbiology laboratories SWU teaching institutions. Ethical approval obtained, were proportionately selected examined grossly, surface swabs taken analysis....

Virgin coconut oil (VCO) has been used in the management of dementia Alzheimer's disease (AD). Therefore, this research investigated effect long-term consumption VCO diet on learning and memory CD1 mice.Thirty male mice (divided into three groups, n = 10) were fed with standard rodent chow (control), 5% 20% diets (respectively) for 28 d. The Morris Water Maze (MWM) test was to visuo-spatial memory, while Novel Object Recognition Test (NORT) measure short- recognition memory.Learning...

Background: Forensic taphonomy is the use of decomposition timeline estimation to unravel mystery behind time death confirmation in homicide cases involving law court. The Guinea forest-savannah vegetation one vegetations Nigeria characterized by short trees, grassland, very hot temperatures almost round year, speedy wind, etc. It has two distinct seasons – rainy and dry seasons. This study aimed at investigating visible post mortem changes domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica) a so that it...

Abstract Background Decomposition timeline estimation is one of the key tools used in homicide cases to unravel mystery behind time death a victim. take for carcass decay from skeletonization. Several events occur during this timeline. These are controlled by certain autolytic and putrefactive factors. Other factors also play role determining rate decomposition. However, aid eventual breakdown carcass. The flora activities, fauna soil physicochemical properties, nature soil, climatic This...

Post mortem interval refers to the time taken for a body (carcass) completely decay; and this begins immediately at death. This timeline is affected by several factors but especially climatic factors. means that post varies from one climate or region another. Therefore, determine affect in Guinea forest-savannah vegetation of Nigeria, decomposition study was carried out using domestic pigs. Data were collected four animals scored according Total Body Score (TBS) scale. Pearson correlation...

The teratogenic effects associated with ingestion of crude oil on the histology developing cerebral cortex was investigated in albino wistar rats. Single doses 3ml/kg, 6ml/kg body 9ml/kg weight administered through gastric intubations to different groups pregnant rats onthe 7th, 8th and 9th day gestation. Control received normal saline corresponding days. fetuses were collected by hysterectomy 20th Histological layering, reduced cell density degeneration neuroblasts intermediate ventricular...

BackgroundShortage of cadavers for anatomical studies is still a major challenge in medical schools globally. This due to sole dependency on unreliable sources like unclaimed bodies; Hence, the present study assessed factors associated with willingness donate body among academic staffs.MethodsThis cross sectional conducted from January March 2024 Southwestern Ugandan teaching schools. Ethical approval was obtained, structured questionnaires eliciting demographics, cadaver donation and were...

Background: Most of the murder victims in Nigeria are concealed shallow graves or clandestine paths bushes. Knowledge post-mortem interval (PMI) buried carcasses is useful estimating time since death for homicide scenarios. The PMI remains different from that on soil surface. Aims and Objectives: study aimed at investigating a tropical rainforest vegetation using matured domestic pigs as human analogs. Materials Methods: Four animals were used this study. Animals sacrificed one-foot-depth...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The COVID-19 pandemic has had profound impacts on education globally. Most students have lost months of educational experience that is considered fundamental. This study aimed to provide an overview the situation experienced by anatomy during pandemic, determine knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding online standard operating procedures for anatomical practical. METHODOLOGY: involved use questionnaires google forms. RESULTS CONCLUSION: results from this show...

Introduction: Herbal medicines are plant-based products used to treat various illnesses and their uses have dramatically increased over the past years in many developed developing nations. Alchornea cordifolia is one of these plants with reports its use health promotion. Some exhibit toxicity due presence phytochemicals inherent them, therefore further studies necessary evaluating levels. In this study, sub-acute ethanolic extract leaves was investigated on pituitary gland adult male Wistar...
