The covid 19 pandemic drastically drives changes in the different field of work and it doesn’t exempt the academe. Thriving is a necessity. To thrive means to stay relevant. Staying relevant is to remain useful, innovative, and responsive to trends. This study evaluates the performances of Bachelor of Elementary Education graduates (BEED) and the trend of the performances of BEED graduates in the LET over 11 years. This quantitative longitudinal study utilizes a descriptive-correlational approach and regression analysis.

A 31 year old primigravida with previous history of myomectomy, had a scan done at 28 weeks period of gestation showing vascular lakes and lacunae in the placenta. During elective lower segment cesarean section, placenta was found to be adherent. It was left in-situ and was managed conservatively by methotrexate and suction and evacuation.

Background: Acute appendicitis is one of the main causes of abdominal pain that requires surgical treatment, it occurs at any stage of life with a lifetime risk of 7% in general population; clinical findings are usually sufficient to make diagnosis, but definitive diagnosis is made at the moment of surgery; there isn´t a reliable marker of acute apendicitis but it has been hypothesized that serum bilirrubin levels increase in complicated appendicitis cases and that it can be measured before appendectomy to predict severity levels.

Background: forward head position is characterized by a dorso extension of the head together with the upper cervical spine (Cl-C3), accompanied by a flexion of the lower cervical spine (C4-C7), where the cervical curvature is increased, a condition called hyper lordosis, it is one of the most common problems occurred in pregnant women especially in 3rd trimester of pregnancy as a result of increasing abdominal weight, shifting of COG, breast enlargement, hyper laxity of ligaments.

Background: Cervical spondylosis is a generalized disease process affecting all levels of the cervical spine. Cupping Therapy (CT) is an ancient method and currently used in the treatment of a broad range of medical conditions such as cervical spondylosis. Nitric Oxide (NO) is a signaling gas molecule that mediates vasodilation and regulates blood flow and several lines of evidence have indicated that NO plays a complex and diverse role in the modulation of pain.

Environmental degradation is a process which lowers the current and/ or the potential capability of land to produce goods or services in terms of qualitatively. Soil degradation and deterioration of the physical chemical and biological characteristic of soil is one facet of environmental degradation since soil is an integral component of environment. The rate at which environmental degradation occur differs from a climatic zone to another in terms of its causes, short and long term consequences.

The first step in drug discovery is, in many cases is to test compounds in cell culture to find out the activity in terms of pharmacological actions. In vitro cell culturebasedstudies in the non-clinical laboratory serve various functions along the path from the discovery of new molecular entities to approval and marketing of a therapeutic.

Background of the study: As the world is battling the COVID-19 pandemic, frontline health care workers (HCWs) are among the most vulnerable groups at risk of mental health problems.

Background: Healthcare burden of nations across the globe are on a steady rise, governments and individuals are seeking solutions, which are efficient and affordable and evidence shows that leaves have something to offer. Aims: A comparative analysis of the nutritional and chemical composition of seven leaves used to manage diseases in south eastern Nigeria were analyzed. The findings will help to encourage right choices and easy access of consensus evidence to healthcare professionals and decision makers. Study design: Systematic Review.

Vocational schools play a pivotal role in training skilled professionals for specific careers through two-year education programs that offer multiple semesters annually, ultimately granting associate degrees (1). Among these institutions, Health Vocational Schools specialize in diverse health-related disciplines, such as anesthesia, audiology, medical imaging, pharmacy services, and more (2). The focus of this study is the anesthesia program within the Vocational School of Health Services, a critical 2-year program ranked third in university preference for 2022 (3).
