Failure of root canal treatment (RCT) occurs when endodontic treatment falls short of standard clinical guidelines. An improper mechanical debridement (shaping and cleaning), persistence of bacteria inside the canals and apex, poor obturation quality, coronal leakage, and experience of dentists all probably influence the RCT success or failure. Although there is substantial success of RCT, failures take place in many cases, which usually could be related to the previously mentioned factors. So, it’s considerably imperative to stop the foremost potential factors that cause RCT failure. This paper reviews how to increase the success rate of the RCT.

The current study aims to investigate the effect of the Vitex Angus-cactus leaves extract on body weight, haematological and biochemical of chicken. The chicken was divided into four groups. The first group was given orally 5mg, the second 10 mg, the third 15 mg dose of Vitex extract every day for a period of 30 days and the fourth group served as a control group. The result revealed an increase in the body weight of treated chicken by 11.76 % at a 15 mg dose of Vitex extract compared to the control group. Non-significant increase was in haemoglobin (Hb) amount and the total erythrocyte (RBC) count, while white blood cells (WBC) decreased significantly in treated chicken. The plasma aspartate aminotranseferase (AST) was decreased significantly at all doses of vitex extract and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased by 41% only at 15 mg dose of extract. The plasma urea level does not changed by treatment in comparison to the control group. The total serum testosterone was not detectable by treatment of 10 mg and 15 mg doses of Vitex extract. In conclusion, the treatment of chicken with some dose of Vitex leaf extract can improve their body weight and some haematological and biochemical parameters.

The prevalence of surgical complications in gynecological surgery varies depending on the population. The time of occurrence of complications may range from the time of surgery itself to several weeks after the procedure. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of postoperative complications after gynecologic surgeries and to identify the common complications after gynecologic surgeries. This is a cross sectional hospital based study included 200 patients underwent various types of gynecologic procedures in Al-Sadaqa Teaching Hospital in Aden, from Jan.1st to Dec. 31st, 2020. The study included patients from 13 years to 80 years (mean age: 43.7 ± 13.2 years), subjected to any type of gynecologic procedures (major or minor) during the study period. The prevalence of postoperative complications after gynecology surgery was (30.5%) with minor more than major complications (86.9% vs. 13.1). Common complications were pain at site of operation (24.6%), fever (12.3%), nausea and vomiting (19.7%), SSI (8.2%), URTI (6.6%), and hematoma (4.9%). Significant higher percentage of postoperative complications were reported in association with major surgeries than with minor surgeries (95.1% vs. 4.9%, respectively) (p<0.05). Among major gynecologic surgeries, the common postoperative complications were reported significantly in association with abdominal hysterectomy (29.3%), vaginal hysterectomy (20.7%), uterine myomectomy (17.2%) and Colporrhaphy (12.1%). Among minor gynecologic surgeries, the common postoperative complications were reported in association with dilatation and curettage for biopsy (66.7%) and Clitorial abscess drainage (33.3%). Other minor gynecologic surgeries did not show any association to postoperative complications. This study concluded that postoperative complications are common after gynecologic surgeries, so that operated women need to be fully investigated and evaluated prior to elective gynecologic surgeries.

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder that can interact with atherosclerosis in ischemic strokes to initiate, activate and propagate vascular events. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) has emerged as a useful biochemical marker reflecting the average glycemic control over the last 3 months, its prognostic value in the acute neurological conditions such as stroke is still not well-established. To study the effect of glycemic status (HbA1c) on severity of acute ischemic stroke in patients with diabetes (type1 and 2) at admission. This was a prospective cross sectional, hospital-based study done at Aden public and private hospitals for a period of thirteen months (January 2020 to February 2021). We evaluated 75 diabetic patients with acute ischemic stroke which was confirmed by brain computed tomography (CT scan). All subjects had blood hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) measured at admission. They were classified into two groups according to the level of HbA1c: good glycemic control group ((GGC)) HbA1c<7.0% and poor glycemic control group((PGC))) HbA1c ≥7). Neurological impairment was evaluated by using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). A higher percentage of patients (84%) with acute ischemic stroke had elevated HbA1C levels (≥7), High percentage of patients in PGC (66.7%) as well as who were in GGC (75%) had moderate to severe stroke (NIHSS >8). The association between stroke severity and HbA1C levels on admission was statistically not significant (P value> 0.05). We found that HbA1c cannot be used for predication of severity in diabetic patients with ischemic stroke. Our results provide evidence that although chronic hyperglycemia increases risk of stroke, it is not associated with increased stroke severity.

Early pregnancy failure is a medical complication and major health problem across the globe. The aim of this study is to compare manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) and dilatation and curettage (D&C) for first trimester abortion, in terms of the efficiency of eliminating retain product of conceptus, frequency of complications, duration of the procedure, and duration of patients' hospitalization. This is a prospective comparative descriptive study performed at Al-Sadaqa Teaching Hospital. Over a period from 1st Jan 2020 to 31st December 2020, a total of 143 women, these patients either MVA group (n=72) or D&C group (n=71). Presented with spontaneous abortion and gestational age less than 12 weeks, patent cervix, and no signs of septic abortion, hemoglobin ≥9 g/dl and no bleeding disorder. Data was collected on prescribed questionnaire. The total number of abortion 637 in compare to 259 (40.7%) patient with first trimester abortion, 143 patients was included in this study, MVA group (n =72) and D&C group (n=71). The distribution in respect to the age, parity & gestational age was similar in both groups. The mean duration of procedure was significantly higher (P<0.05) in D&C group compared to MVA group. The duration of hospital stay was significantly lower (P<0.05) in MVA group compared to D&C group. MVA group showed the least incidence of complications regarding the amount of blood loss, and cervical laceration. Complete evacuation was achieved in 95.8% in MVA vs. 98.6% in D&C group with no statically significant (P=0.304). MVA is as effective as popular dilatation and curettage for treatment of early pregnancy failure while it need less time consuming, requires a shorter hospital stay and subsequently costs less. It does not require general anesthesia and complication rate is less than dilatation and curettage. So it can be easily accessible to the woman of both rural and urban societies belonging to any socioeconomic strata especially where high tech equipment and power supply are not available.

Postterm Pregnancy is one of the commonest obstetric conditions which associated with an increased risk of fetal and neonatal mortality and morbidity as well as an increased maternal morbidity. The aim of the present study is to determine the maternal and fetal outcomes of postterm pregnancy at Al-Sadaqa Teaching Hospital. A prospective case–control study was conducted at Al-Sadaqa Teaching Hospital, Aden from January 1st to December 31th 2020. Cases were considered postterm pregnancy (≥ 42 weeks) while control term pregnancy (37weeks - 41weeksand 6 days). Significant association between gestational age and the studied variables of postterm and term pregnancy were analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. A total of 185 cases of postterm pregnancy and 370 control group of term birth, the frequency of postterm pregnancy was (2.78%), we found statistically significant association between some of socio-demographic factors and postterm pregnancy, cesarean section was higher in postterm group (OR 2.80) with the indications were cephalopelvic disproportion (OR 12.38). Maternal complications were significantly association to postterm birth like prolonged labor (OR 12.99) and postpartum hemorrhage (OR 8.32). Regarding to fetal outcomes, Postterm pregnancy has showed a significant association with neonatal low Apgar score(p=0.000), Oligohydramnios (OR 42.24) asphyxia (OR 2.86), meconium aspiration (OR 9.41) and Perinatal death (p value 0.012). This study concluded that postterm pregnancy is associated with adverse maternal outcomes such as, prolonged labor and postpartum hemorrhage, and associated with adverse fetal outcomes like oligohydramnios, asphyxia and meconium aspiration syndrome. The outcome of prolonged pregnancy can be improved by proper counselling for follow up during pregnancy and proper monitoring and appropriate management during labor.

Bacterial conjunctivitis is one of the most commonly encountered eye complications in medicine, particularly in developing nations. In Hadhramout Governorate-Yemen, there is no data about bacterial conjunctivitis among patients. The present study aimed to determine the prevalence rate of bacterial conjunctivitis among patients seeking hospitals in Hadhramout Governorate, Yemen. A total of 1722 eye swabs were collected from patients attending different Hadhramout hospitals over a period of April to December 2018. The isolation and identification of bacteria are performed using standard bacteriological procedures. In addition, structured questionnaires were used to gather data from patients. Out of 1722 eye swabs, 198 (11.49%) were positive for bacterial conjunctivitis, while 1524 (88.5%) were negative. The high prevalence rate of infection was among female participants and the age group between 31 and 40 years, at 15.25% and 29.29%, respectively. In addition, the prevalence of gram-positive bacteria was significantly greater among study patients than gram-negative bacteria (58.59% vs. 41.41%). The most predominant Gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus (26.26%), followed by Streptococci pneumoniae (17.18%), Alpha-hemolytic Streptococci (8.08%), and Staphylococcus epidermidis (7.07%). Whereas the gram-negative bacteria were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (12.1%), followed by Moraxella catarrhalis (10.1%), Haemophilus influenza (7.07%), Klebsiella sp. (6.06%), Enterobacter agglomerans (4.04%), and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (2.02%). Additionally, the majority of study patients suffered from red eyes (100%), tearing eyes (93.93%), itching (90.9%), painful eyes (87.87%), purulent eyes (56.56%), and eye discharge (38.38%). The prevalence rate of bacterial conjunctivitis among patients in Hadhramout, Yemen, is relatively low compared with international investigations. Further investigation is required to assess and identify the antibiotic resistance to these agents that cause conjunctivitis.

In Hadhramout Governorate-Yemen, there is no data about bacterial conjunctivitis among patients. The present study aimed to determine the prevalence rate of bacterial conjunctivitis among patients seeking hospitals in Hadhramout Governorate, Yemen. A total of 1722 eye swabs were collected from patients attending different Hadhramout hospitals over a period of April to December 2018. The isolation and identification of bacteria are performed using standard bacteriological procedures. In addition, structured questionnaires were used to gather data from patients. Out of 1722 eye swabs, 198 (11.49%) were positive for bacterial conjunctivitis, while 1524 (88.5%) were negative. The high prevalence rate of infection was among female participants and the age group between 31 and 40 years, at 15.25% and 29.29%, respectively. In addition, the prevalence of gram-positive bacteria was significantly greater among study patients than gram-negative bacteria (58.59% vs. 41.41%). The most predominant Gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus (26.26%), followed by Streptococci pneumoniae (17.18%), Alpha-hemolytic Streptococci (8.08%), and Staphylococcus epidermidis (7.07%). Whereas the gram-negative bacteria were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (12.1%), followed by Moraxella catarrhalis (10.1%), Haemophilus influenza (7.07%), Klebsiella sp.

Self-medication with antibiotic is a public health problem of great concern, that causes antibiotics resistance that is a critical problem worldwide. In Yemen, the quality of the health services and health polices are far from satisfactory, therefore the antibiotics Self-medication is high among the population. This research aimed to identify the reasons, forcing the community toward Antibiotics Self-Medication. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from September till December 2022 in community pharmacies of four randomly selected districts in Aden governates/ Yemen. A total of 655 participants were randomly selected and a structured interview questionnaire was used to collected data from the respondents through face-to-face interviews. Data were checked, cleaned, and entered to the SPSS version 23 for analysis. The most important reason that forced the participants to self-medication with antibiotics was the cost of consultant 51.6%, followed by emergency illness ,and proximity of the pharmacy to home, comprised 47.8%, and 32.4% respectively. On the other hand, delaying of the hospital services was considered the weakest reason. Dissemination of the finding of this study about the reasons that forced the community to antibiotics self medication is essential to policy development to help the relevant decision makers to develop regulations about antibiotics dispensing.
