Since the first reports on surgical repair of macular holes, postoperative face-down posturing (FDP) has been part of the management regime. However, prone positioning is unpleasant for patients, and has adverse effects. Over the last decade some vitreoretinal surgeons have reduced the duration of FDP, or even abandoned it altogether. There have been few non-randomised, and even fewer randomise...

Background/Aim. The cause of discolored gingiva (DG) is the presence metal in gingival tissue. DG a relatively common case, and caused by deposition amalgam material tissue during dental application or oral surgery. aim this study was to determine significance cast post for appearance abutment teeth (AT) relation type fixed prosthesis (FDP) alloy. Methods. included 327 subjects with FDP. A tota...

We present a case of patellar fracture with avulsion fracture of the tibial posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) attachment; to our knowledge, this is the first report of its kind. Patellar fracture is often accompanied by anterior knee pain, which can make it difficult to perform the draw test and thereby mask the PCL injury. Moreover, cases of avulsion fracture of the tibial PCL attachment are r...

Multiple hypothesis testing is a fundamental problem in high dimensional inference, with wide applications in many scientific fields. In genome-wide association studies, tens of thousands of tests are performed simultaneously to find if any SNPs are associated with some traits and those tests are correlated. When test statistics are correlated, false discovery control becomes very challenging u...

The lactate dehydrogenase of Lactobacillus casei, like that of streptococci, requires fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP) for activity. The L. casei enzyme has a much more acidic pH optimum (pH 5.5) than the streptococcal lactate dehydrogenases. This is apparently due to a marked decrease in the affinity of the enzyme for the activator with increasing pH above 5.5; the concentration of FDP required ...

This study was undertaken to evaluate the relationship between serum tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and coagulopathy in patients with prostate cancer. TNF levels in 104 sera obtained from 101 prostate cancer patients were determined using an enzyme immunoassay. Serum levels of fibrin/fibrinogen degradation product E fragment (FDP) and plasma levels of fibrin degradation product D-dimer in patients...

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic performances abbreviated protocol (AP) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), AP combined with diffusion-weighted (DWI), and full dynamic (FDP) in differentiation breast cancers from benign diseases.
 Materials Methods: total population consisted 68 patients who underwent MRI (1.5 Tesla) between January 2016 December 2021 for evaluati...

Fire disaster preparedness (FDP) is of paramount importance in preventing the globe’s most prevalent disaster. This has been a big issue for developing nations. The study investigated FDP among residents high-income community part Southwestern Nigeria. aim was to identify regarding fire disasters residential buildings Parakin, Ife Central Local Government Area Osun State, To achieve objectives,...

The diagnosis of brachial plexus avulsion is often delayed by concomitant trauma to the arm and shoulder. Therefore, nerve transfer surgery restore elbow shoulder function rarely reported. We present our initial experience double fascicular for upper avulsion. A 26-year-old male patient presented with a 5-month history unresolving pain paralysis involving his left following motorcycle accident....
