We present two cases of finger ring impaction. Both patients tried to remove it in rural hospitals before presenting to the burns and plastic unit of the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital. The male had the ring on the left index finger while the female had it on the left ring finger. The rings were removed by the use of circumferential cutaneous tissue infiltration (ring block) with plain lignocaine, strip of esmarch bandage exanguination of the finger, lubrication with K-Y jelly and then extraction.

Epidermal cysts are the most common epithelial cysts usually with non malignant potential. These occur commonly in hair- bearing areas mostly on the scalp, also on the face, neck, back, and scrotum. Etiology is usually unknown. It can be seen commonly in individuals with history of significant Acne vulgaris. Multiple sebaceous cysts over the scrotum is a rare condition. Only eight cases of multiple epidermal cysts in scrotum have been reported so far from India in the past literature. This condition is usually asymptomatic and painless. It may turn painful if gets infected and often may be associated with discharge of pus. We present a rare case of multiple epidermal cysts of scrotum in a 36 year old patient which was managed with complete excision of the cysts done under local anesthesia followed by primary closure with better outcome in cosmesis taking care of not to jeopardize the vascular supply to local flaps and testis.

Purpose: Topical steroids are considered to be the first line of treatment for some forms of idiopathic punctal stenosis causing epiphora. We present a case of epiphora, which was unresponsive to traditional management, but responded to one week of systemic steroids. Observations: A 48-year-old male with no significant medical history, was referred to us for excessive tearing. He was seen earlier by an ophthalmologist for redness in one of his eyes. He was prescribed Pataday (Olopatadine) eye drops and Zylet (Tobramycin, Lotepriol) eye drops for both eyes. The patient was seen again after a week of treatment without much improvement. His treatment was changed to Alrex (Loteprednol) and Azasite (Azithromycin) eye drops. The redness of the eye disappeared in a week but patient noticed excessive tearing of his eyes. He was referred to reconstructive ophthalmologist for treatment of possible punctal stenosis. On examination the height of tear meniscus was increased and diagnostic lacrimal probing and syringing of the lacrimal drainage system demonstrated both lacrimal drainage system patent. Punctal stenosis was diagnosed. Over the next couple of weeks, patient underwent multiple syringing of the lacrimal duct system with temporary relief of symptoms. He was also prescribed Tobradex (Tobramycin+Dexamethasone) eye drops to be used for a month. Eye drops helped for the duration of treatment but symptoms returned after a couple of days of discontinuing eye drops. Patient also received ductal probing and punctal dilation in the office without much relief. Mini perforated plugs were placed in both puncta resulting in temporary relief. At the same time the intra ocular pressure started to rise and Tobradex eye drops were discontinued immediately. After almost three months of treatment and continuation of debilitating symptoms of epiphora, patient decided to consider surgical intervention and consulted an ENT surgeon for second opinion. Since he was responding to topical steroids, which was causing an increase in his intra ocular pressure, the ENT surgeon suggested Medrol Pack (Prednisolone for a week). Patient was symptom free after 4 days of treatment and by 7th day, his eyes were back to normal with complete disappearance of epiphora symptoms. Conclusions and importance: Systemic steroids can be beneficial in patients suffering from Idiopathic/Iatrogenic punctal stenosis unresponsive to topical steroids and conventional treatments.

Introduction: Communication in dentistry is bilateral process which usually is based on response (understanding) by the person. That’s why the Oral Healthcare Providers (OHP) should be convinced the consent given by the patient is valid. It means that at the beginning of the treatment the orthodontist will ask a lot of questions and have expectations to receive appropriate answers. There is a specific lack of awareness about the first orthodontic consultation at 7y of age, occurrence and prevention of most of the common tooth jaw discrepancies which affect the oral health, self-confidence and overall development of the child. A variety of socio-demographic, educational, personal and other factors mostly divided into objective and subjective factors influences the perception of facial attractiveness. The orthodontic treatment lays down on the personal desire and attitudes, depends from the motivation but is not without a risk for the patient. The aim of the current research is to present the most objective and subjective factors identifying the patient’s refusal. Material and methods: It’s a case report based on preliminary discussion and orthodontic consultation over the cephalometric analysis and cast models. Orthodontic treatment protocol was followed and given informed consent by the individual was received. Results and discussions: An electronic search was conducted using the Medline database (PubMed), Science Direct, and Scopus. In this case report were described the treatment options for Class III malocclusion with an emphasis on maxillary protraction and existing impacted canine 13. The decision making capacity was evaluated and also what are the objective and subjective factors and how to proceed with patient refusal. Conclusions: Despite the orthodontist’s efforts to improve the management of the dental practice and to attract new patients, these challenges should never been from the first importance. Contemporary dentistry requires that the patient’s right to refuse should be respected and this refusal must be accepted. Because orthodontic treatment is expensive, the process of returning money or sharing responsibility for the treatment depend on the socio-cultural characteristics of both the patient and the doctor. The whole situation requires a very delicate approach, as it affects the image of the dental community in society at whole.

Introduction: The training of dental students in communication skills has been faced with a new challenge related to the limitations of COVID 19. Obtaining informed consent and deciding on the need for treatment are part of the twoway dental-patient communication process. While training in Public Dental Health, the students learn the basic rules of patient-oriented communication, discussing models for successful conversation with the patient and the types of verbal and nonverbal communication. The main educational goal is to build dental professionals who can adequately accept the needs of patients, help to realize them and generate trust. The specific educational goal is to organize and discuss specific, evidence-based clinical skills for communicating with patients. Materials and methods: A literature search has been performed and alternatives have been discussed with colleagues. The information search has been conducted using the Medline database (PubMed), Science Direct, and Web of Science. Discussion: The development of the social element has been observed in the relationship dentist - patient. Against the background of growing commercialism in the provision of dental services, patients are feeling increasingly uncertain whether the treatment offered is the needed one. Therefore, the patient must be at the centre of modern dentistry where the primary role has the Medical University in educating ethical principles and building doctors dedicated to humanity. Conclusion: The challenges in teaching students to communicate effectively with the patient are significant, especially in a global pandemic. The roots of philanthropy and empathy are laid back in time. They were described by the first teachers, physicians and philosophers in Medicine such as Hippocrates, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and others. It is our responsibility just to repeat them.
由于新冠肺炎疫情的限制，牙科学生的沟通能力培训面临新的挑战。获得知情同意和决定是否需要治疗是牙医与病人双向沟通过程的一部分。在公共牙科卫生培训中，学生学习以病人为中心的沟通的基本规则，讨论与病人成功对话的模式以及语言和非语言沟通的类型。主要的教育目标是培养能够充分接受病人的需要，帮助病人实现他们的需要，并产生信任的牙科专业人员。具体的教育目标是组织和讨论具体的，循证临床技能与患者沟通。材料和方法:进行了文献检索，并与同事讨论了替代方案。使用Medline数据库(PubMed)、Science Direct和Web of Science进行信息搜索。讨论:社会因素的发展已经在牙医-病人关系中被观察到。在提供牙科服务日益商业化的背景下，病人越来越不确定所提供的治疗是否符合他们的需要。因此，病人必须处于现代牙科的中心，医科大学在教育道德原则和培养致力于人类的医生方面发挥着主要作用。结论:教育学生与患者有效沟通的挑战是重大的，特别是在全球大流行的情况下。慈善和同理心的根源可以追溯到很久以前。它们被最早的教师、医生和医学哲学家如希波克拉底、苏格拉底、柏拉图、亚里士多德等人描述过。我们有责任重复它们。

It has grown into a significant part of the country's economy as well as a primary supply of white meat and nutrition for the average family. People were interrogated by questionnaire. In this, we included all types and every age of people. Many questions were asked. Industry trends in the meat sector contribute to various meat varieties such as beef, mutton, poultry, and camel, among others. The majority of chicken production takes place on large-scale farms throughout Pakistan's provinces. Chicken is emerging meat industry but beef is still at top so far. Fishery is an important part of Pakistan's economy, as it is a significant source of revenue for coastal residents. Red meat is a nutrient-dense diet that contains significant levels of protein, vital amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, including vitamin A, iron, and zinc, all of which are commonly deficient in the world. However, several studies have connected red meat consumption to a variety of health risks, including heart disease, colon cancer, kidney illness, and digestive disorders.
