In the morphometry of the patella, there are several naturally occurring variations. Few studies have focused on these anatomical differences among the Egyptian population. The present work aimed to evaluate age and gender variations in different morphometric patellar measurements using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the Egyptian population. Nine patellar parameters were measured on 200 individuals “100 males and 100 females”, aged from 20 to 70 years old using knee joint MRI obtained retrospectively from the picture archiving and communication system (PACS) of Radiology Department, Mansoura University. The mean values revealed statistically significant differences across gender for 5 out of 9 patellar measurements and 4 out of 9 across age, denoting sex and age differentiation in patellar morphology among the Egyptian population. Patellar height (PH), width (PW), thickness (PT), lateral facet width (PLFW), and facet thickness (PFT) showed statistically significant sexual dimorphism (p≤ 0.05) in all age groups. On the other hand, patellar angle (PA) showed the highest statistically significant difference (p ≤ 0.001) for age estimation in all age groups. PH, PW, and PLFW showed a statistically significant negative correlation with age. Moreover, patellar measurements showed high accuracy rates for sex determination among the Egyptian population (84.3-93.6%) in different age groups. Morphometric patellar measurements obtained by non-invasive MRI examination were shown to be useful for sex determination and age prediction in the Egyptian population.

BackgroundThe khat (Catha edulis) shrub is cultivated in both the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa. The citizens of this region have carried the tradition of chewing khat leaves since the 15th century. This plant is a natural stimulant which contains two main substances, cathine and cathinone, which cause excitement, euphoria, and loss of appetite. Moreover, the khat trade is considered a source of income within countries of these regions. However, khat holds both benefits and negative aspects for mankind, society, and the environment. This article focuses on the issue of khat smuggling to Saudi Arabia, which has increased over between 2010 and 2016 according to the recent statistics.MethodResearch on the problem of khat smuggling to Saudi Arabia was performed through the analysis of seven years of data (2010–2016) obtained by Saudi Customs and other governmental entities responsible for monitoring the smuggling of drugs, which includes data reflecting the amount of khat seized and smuggled to Saudi Arabia.ResultsKhat smuggling has increased in Saudi Arabia over seven (2010–2016) years. The analysis of data on both the promotion and smuggling of khat were considered, and placed khat in third place among other drugs since the year 1999.ConclusionStatistically, Jazan is the most vulnerable to the smuggling of khat. As such, the to design of intervention programs is recommended to address the problem of khat smuggling in the Jazan region. Additionally, awareness should be increased among the youth through cooperation between public education and higher education, which should include further research on this problem.

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is the most toxic mycotoxin that was proven to be deleterious to human and several animal species. Current work aimed at evaluating the sex-based differential hepatic genotoxic effect and the antioxidant activity as implications of subchronic aflatoxicosis B1. Albino rats were used that comprised two equal AFB1treated groups with AFB1 contaminated olive oil (50µg/kg) and a control group for each gender that received the vehicle only. Parts of animals’ livers were homogenized for gene expression assessment using quantitative RT-PCR and antioxidant activity analyses. Caspase-3 immunohistopathological examination was concomitantly undertaken. Results showed that AFB1 induced significant overexpression in cell cycle proliferation (ODC1), apoptosis (Aen), and antioxidant heme oxygenase (Hmox) genes in males alongside Bax (Bcl2- associated protein) under-expression. Meanwhile, female rats showed significant overexpression for (Hmox) and under-expression of Bax and Tnf (Tumor necrosis factor). Concomitant total hepatic antioxidant activity of liver homogenates showed a reduction in males, contrasting females. Degenerate vacuolated hepatocytes, polymorphic nuclei, cellular infiltration with concomitant Caspase-3 positive cells were profound findings in male rats. Hence, AFB1 is deferentially genotoxic at the given dose especially to male rats towards carcinogenicity, oxidative stress and apoptosis compared to a brief but compensated oxidative stress in females.

Road traffic accident, Egypt, Injuries, Deaths. Road traffic accidents (RTAs) constitute a significant public health problem, they are rising in an alarming rate and causing increased morbidity and mortality among people. The objective of this study is to retrospectively analyze the data of road traffic accidents cases in Minia University Hospital from January to December 2016. The data was obtained from sheets of road traffic accident cases enrolled to the hospital within the year 2016 and statistically analyzed as regard the age groups and sex distribution, the causal vehicle, the pattern of injuries occurred, seasonal variation, and the number of deaths due to RTA, the leading causes of death and the survival period following the accident. The total number of studied cases was 370; most of the injuries were observed in adults (74.3%), with marked increase in males (79.5 %). Four wheels were the most causal vehicles (58.9%) for RTAs with higher incidence in spring. Bone fractures were the most common injury pattern (60.5 %) followed by head injuries (37.6 %), then abdominal injuries (9.7%), and finally chest injuries (8.4%). Skin injuries were observed only in (27.8%) of cases. The total number of deaths was 126 (34.1%) cases. Range of survival period was 0-11 days; the most frequent injury presented in dead cases was head injuries (69.8%). The present study concluded that bone fractures were the most common injury pattern in RTAs while head injuries were the main contributing factor for death. The skin injury is not indicative of severity of internal injury.

Organophosphorus poisoning has significant clinical importance, especially in the developing countries, due to its major health consequences. The study evaluated role of obidoxime in reactivation of cholinesterase (ACHE, BuCHE) enzymes in acute organophosphorus (OP) intoxicated patients. It was conducted on group I: 50 patients received obidoxime therapy after acute OP intoxication, and group II: 50 patients did not receive obidoxime. Patients were subjected to neurological evaluation, determination of ACHE and BuCHE levels. Results revealed that there were statistically significant differences between both groups regarding clinical outcomes, with variability of significance regarding initial and final levels of cholinesterase enzymes. It was concluded that BuCHE enzymes' levels can be considered sensitive biomarker for OP exposure and severity, while, ACHE activity reflected the recovery.

Determination of sex is one of the most important and vital steps in forensic medicine. Sexual dimorphism using odontometric analysis is found to vary in different populations making it necessary to attain values of a specific population which makes identification of person as easy as possible. The present study aims to establish sexual differentiation using dental parameters including dental linear dimensions and indices. Maxillary jaw casts from total of 100 subjects (50 males and 50 females) between ages 17 and 24 years were taken. Mesiodistal (MD) and Buccolingual (BL) dimensions of each tooth of from maxillary jaw cast excluding third molar were measured using precision calipers, dental indices were calculated. Data was collected and statistical analysis was done using SPSS software version 20. Bucccolingual dimension was proved to be a better parameter than MD for assessment of gender in case of left central incisor, canines and left first molar. Crown index of right central incisor, second premolars, and left first molars was the best index for sex prediction of most of the teeth.
