Background: It is theoretically presumed that TLIF will provide the same advantages as circumferential fusion, but with a higher level of safety than other inter body fusion methods, as it does not involve direct traction on the spine. TLIF technology preserves the interspinal ligament and supraspinal ligament in terms of spinal integrity. Goal and objectives: We aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes, complications, and advantages of transforaminal lumbar inter body fusion in degenerative lumbar spine diseases.

Background: Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are the most common birth defects globally. CHD often requires specialized care for survival. However, healthcare inequities in pediatric cardiology limit access to prompt diagnostic and holistic therapeutic interventions in low-income families. Case Presentation: We explore two critical CHDs, tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and transposition of great arteries (TGA), highlighting the intersection of financial limitations, inadequate infrastructure, and suboptimal care.

This manuscript raises numerous questions regarding the extraordinary structural and functional complexity of neural networks, and aims to be a starting point for orienting us toward possible answers. Starting from the fundamental premise that matter is the result of the interaction between the particles that form it, I extend this principle to the neural networks that have specialized, over the course of evolution, in increasingly refined and effective interaction/communication activities.

Background and Aims: Egypt had controlled liver cirrhosis who received HCV vaccine in line to modulate its impact among nephrotic patients. Current clinical trial aim to investigate acute kidney injury (AKI) impact among liver cirrhosis individuals who received HCV treatment. Material and methods: A prospective, multi-center clinical trial, on 50 liver cirrhosis patients who eligible to receive HCV treatment.

Periodontal disease is an inflammatory condition that affects the supporting structures of the teeth which eventually lead to bone loss, tooth mobility and tooth loss if left untreated.Bone loss in periodontal disease is a hall mark and the patterns of bone loss is based on the type of periodontal destruction present.A number of factors contribute to bone loss in periodontitis like bacterial derived factors, antigens that stimulate a local inflammatory response and activation of innate immune system.The present review gives us an overview of classification of bone defects

Hip replacement aims to alleviate hip pain due to the damaged joint and ensure smooth mobility to the extent possible. Physiotherapeutic support after the hip replacement helps inensuring proper rehabilitation and optimum quality of life. This was amply demonstrated in a single case of avascular necrosis of the femoral head in a 31-year-oldwoman. She had been suffering from pain and stiffness in the right hip joint for the last 20 years. She was referredtoa tertiary care hospital where the orthopedic surgeon conducted the hip replacement surgery.

Aim: This study provides critical insights into the perception and awareness of Special Care Dentistry (SCD) among dental undergraduate students in India. Materials & Methodology: This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the awareness and perceptions of Special Care Dentistry (SCD) among dental undergraduate students in India. A total of 400 students from various dental colleges participated in the study, which was conducted by the Department of Public Health Dentistry at SGT University, Gurugram.

Soft tissue injuries of hand and palm are common occurrence caused by trauma, infection, burns and various medical procedures. The criteria for selection of appropriate flap for volar defects is based on ability of the flap to provide glabrous skin, adequacy of length, adequate sensitivity and ability to allow free movement of joints. In the present study we intend to describe our experience of resurfacing of palmodigitovolar defects with glabrous skin. Study population comprised of 32 patients with palmodigitovolar defects from various causes.

El bloqueo de escalpe es una técnica de anestesia regional utilizada en neurocirugía para proporcionar analgesia durante procedimientos craneales, como la craneotomía despierta, mediante la infiltración de anestésicos locales en nervios específicos del cuero cabelludo. Estos nervios incluyen el occipital mayor y menor, auriculotemporal, cigomáticotemporal, supraorbitario y supratroclear.

Background: Drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are frequently prescribed to treat a variety of gastrointestinal disorders, including erosive esophagitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and duodenal and stomach ulcers. They are now the most effective medications that lower gastric hydrochloric acid output and have been in use for almost 30 years. Sometimes, in certain patient populations, prolonged use of a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) has been associated with decreased serum levels of vitamin B12 (cobalamin).
