The myelodysplastic syndromes are a heterogeneous group of hematopoietic stem cell disorders characterized by dysplastic and ineffective hematopoiesis and a varying risk of transformation to acute leukemia. Although the natural history of these syndromes is variable, several factors appear to be of prognostic importance, including the French-American-British classification, the karyotype, in vitro colony formation, and others. The pathogenesis of the myelodysplastic syndrome is not known, but recent evidence suggests that alterations of cellular oncogenes may be a causative factor. There is no standard therapy for myelodysplasia, and thus novel approaches to patient management are warranted.

Introduction: Football is a contact sport that is played on a field similar to football, with eleven players on each side like football is a sport that grew out of a rugby variation and that requires its practitioners: speed, agility , tactical ability and brute force as players jostle, block and chase each other, trying to advance a ball into a territory. The physiological demands of football game are complex, always demanding the maximum of the physical abilities of your players in a row. Considering the differences in skills and abilities, soil conditions, refereeing standards and attitudes of aggression and violence, injury rates may be higher in amateur football players. Objective: the objective of this study is to report injuries that affect football players. Development: Ankle ligament injuries are the most common injuries that occur, regardless of the sport or type of exposure, Concussions and ACL injuries were other high-profile injuries that occurred less frequently, but often carry most significant health consequences. Conclusions: Injuries are common in contact sports such as football, however the vast majority of them do not generate any risk to physical suade athlete unless long-term when excesses of blows to the head can lead to greater central nervous system problems. Knee injuries and ankle are more common in athletes, however the number of surgeries is considered low for the type of sport.

Anatomy and Physiology The prostate is a pyramidal-shaped fibromuscular and glandular accessory sex organ that lies retroperitoneally encircling the bladder neck. It is composed oftwo distinct types of glandular elements-the inner periurethral glands, which are responsible for the hyperplasia of BPH, and the external glands, which are the site of neoplastic degeneration. The secretions (seminal plasma) of the prostate and other sex accessory glands (epididymis, vas deferens and seminal vesicles) constitute most of the volume and chemical components of the ejaculate. This fluid has a high concentration of zinc, potassium, citric acid, fructose and prostaglandins and contains a variety of proteins including proteolytic enzymes and immunoglobulins. These substances are thought to provide optimal conditions for sperm motility and survival in the male and female reproductive tracts, and probably also play a role in protecting the male genitourinary tract from infection.

Cases of acquired methemoglobinemia have been identified with increasing frequency in Los Angeles during the last several years. Among 18 patients, both infants and adults, the most commonly incriminated agent was silver nitrate used for topical antibacterial prophylaxis of burn wounds. One burned child died from overwhelming septicemia complicated by hypoxia with a methemoglobin level of 5.4 grams per dl. Other causative factors included nitrate-rich vegetables used in early infancy, additives in ethnic foods, and prescribed and overdosed drugs. Discontinuation of the precipitating agent and methylene blue therapy were usually followed by prompt improvement. In burned patients treated with silver nitrate, careful regular monitoring of serum methemoglobin levels and early initiation of specific therapy are mandatory.
