Background: Mandibular fractures, including fractures of the subcondylar and condylar regions, are common facial fractures. Sub condylar fractures account for 20–62% of all mandibular fractures. But their management remains controversial. Although closed reduction is the most useful method, it can be difficult to achieve anatomical reduction with this technique compared with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). Aim of the work: To compare between intraoral and extraoral approaches in management of submandibular fracture. Patients and methods: This comparative study was conducted in the plastic surgery department, Faculty of medicine-Menoufia University on 20 patients complaining of sub condylar fracture of mandible. Patients were classified into two groups based on surgical approach: Group A: included ten patients undergoing surgical fixation via the intraoral approach. Group B: included ten patients undergoing surgical fixation via extraoral approach Group. Results: A statistically significant difference was found between groups regarding operating and time. Intraoral approach had a signifcanlty longer operating time compared to extraoral. A statistically significant difference was found between groups regarding interincisal distance. Intraoral approach had a significantly larger interincisal distance compared to extraoral approaches. A statistically significant difference was found between groups regrading field of exposure extraoral have wide field of exposure.

One of the most frequent injuries to the maxillofacial area is a fractured mandible. Multiple places can experience fractures. The inferior alveolar nerve is commonly injured by mandibular fractures. Objective: The study's objective was to determine the frequency of inferior alveolar nerve damage in patients who had internal fixation and open reduction of a mandibular fracture at the Ayub Teaching Hospital in Abbottabad. Methodology: With approval from the institution's ethics committee and CPSP, this descriptive case series was finished at the Department of Maxillofacial of the Ayub Teaching Hospital in Abbottabad. The method to evaluate percentage with absolute precision and the accompanying assumption were used to compute the sample size using the WHO programme for computing sample sizes in health research. Results: The mean age of the participants was 35.81+5.63 years, with a range of ages from 26 to 45. The age categories with the highest incidence were 26-30 (n=23, 23.96%), followed by the age ranges 36-40 and 41-45 (n=26, 27.08%). 75 (78.12%) men and 21 (21.88%) women participated in the research. General anaesthesia was used by the majority of patients (n=90; 93.75%), whereas local anaesthesia was used by the remaining patients (n=6; 6.25%).

Introduction: Autism is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder of poorly understood etiology; which may be genetic, epigenetic or environmental. Valproic acid (VPA), the most widely used antiepileptic drug, has been reported to increase the risk of autism among the offspring of human mothers who are medicated with it during early pregnancy. Aim: The current work aimed to study the biochemical and histological changes in the cerebellum of the offspring of prenatally VPA treated rats. Materials and Methods: Twelve pregnant female albino rats were divided into two groups; control and VPA treated (50 mg/kg/day orally). The cerebellar sections of male offspring rats were subjected to biochemical tests (brain tissue Malondialdehyde (MDA), Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and glutamate), histological examination, immunohistochemical analyses for the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax), and electro microscopical studies. Results: VPA caused significant elevation in the brain levels of oxidative stress marker MDA, proinflammatory cytokine TNF-α and excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate, with significant reduction in the level of brain antioxidant marker SOD, compared to the control group.

Stunting is a condition in which a toddler is shorter than their own age. This condition is defined as having a body length or height that is greater than the - 2 SD median of WHO child development criteria. Childhood stunting can have an effect on growth and development. Growth is not ideal, and developmental hurdles arise from birth, resulting in low educational achievement later in life. To reduce the risk of stunting, it is essential to identify and implement appropriate and optimal action as soon as possible in order to avoid or minimize lasting negative effects on children's growth and development. It aims at determining the way in which stunt interventions take place in a few developing countries. The research plan utilized may be a Writing Survey utilizing the Prisma strategy, which depicts the comes about of hindering intercessions in creating countries.

Purpose: This study set to investigate the relationship between corruption and health service delivery in the Lira district. Four objectives were targeted: determining the effect of corruption on health service delivery, examining corrupt actions, mechanisms of fighting corruption and challenges faced by the public in fighting corruption in Lira district. Methodology: The study adopted a cross-sectional study design that employed a mixed-methods approach of both quantitative and qualitative methods. The study population consisted of 120 people, which comprised patients, in-charges of Ogur and Amach Health Center IV, village health teams, and some community leaders. The researcher used self-administered questionnaires to collect data, an interview guide, and a focus group discussion checklist for qualitative. The descriptive statistics (mean, frequency, and standard deviation) and the regression statistics were used to determine the effect of corruption on health service delivery. Findings: The study found that corruption is associated with poor health service delivery in government health facilities. The regression coefficient of 0.97 and R-square of 0.97 reveal a strong correlation, which affects health service delivery by 38.2 percentage points. There are numerous corruption actions in health facilities, such as the selling of government drugs to patients; bribery, especially in the outpatient department; theft of health commodities; nepotism; favoritism; segregation at all service points in health facilities; and poor accountability. The mechanisms of fighting corruption in the health sector were community empowerment, community campaigns against corruption, reporting of suspected cases of corruption, tight supervision of government employees, and others. The challenges faced by the public in fighting against corruption were lack of community empowerment, a lack of information, unclear reporting channels for corrupt perpetrators, community ignorance, and fears of being mistreated by health workers, a weak political system, and bribery. Unique contribution to theory, policy and practice: It was recommended that the government of Uganda should increase health worker salaries; tighten supervision of health workers at least weekly for effective monitoring; and a contract for fighting corruption be awarded to a private company because it worked well with the Apac anti-corruption coalition (TACC). This study contributes to the re-awakening of stakeholders on the depth of corruption in basic service delivery in Uganda.

Systematic nursing services need to focus on identifying and solving problems, and it is hoped that nurses play a role in helping families in providing care at home through the necessary health education for clients. This activity will run more effectively with early planning and health education, with the hope that client care can continue. So discharge planning is very necessary. This study aims to determine the effect of discharge planning on parents' ability to care for children after diarrhea at RSUD Labuang Baji Makassar. This research is a quantitative research with a Quasi Experimental design. The population studied were parents with children suffering from diarrhea who were treated at Labuang Baji Hospital, Makassar. With a sample size of 60 respondents. The sampling technique is purposive sampling. The sample was divided into two groups, namely the control group and the treatment group. After both groups were observed regarding knowledge, attitudes and skills. The treatment group was given the dischaege planning intervention, while the control group was not given the intervention. Data were collected using observation sheets and questionnaires with assessments according to the Gutman and Likert scales. Data analysis used t-test, Chi-Square, and Odds Ratio, with a significance level of α = 5% (0.05). Analysis of results in the treatment group using t-test. It was found that there was a significant influence between discharge planning on parents' ability to care for their children after diarrhea. with the expected value (p = 0.00) smaller than the value (0.005). and in the Chi-Square (Fisher's Exact Test) the value P = 0.00 < 0.05 is obtained which can be concluded that there is a relationship between discharge planning and the ability of parents to care for children after diarrhea, whereas in the analysis using the Odds Ratio of the value is 7.5, meaning . Parents who were given discharge planning intervention were 7 times more likely to have greater knowledge, skills and attitudes compared to parents who were not given discharge planning intervention. Meanwhile, in the control group, no influence or relationship was found with the expected t-test value p=0.32 > 0.05 and Chi-Square p=1,000 > 0.05. The conclusion is that there is an influence of discharge planning on parents' ability to care for children after diarrhea.
