The Efficacy and Safety of Using Intralesional 5-fluorouracil for Basal Cell Carcinoma: Clinical Trail

The investigators want to assess the safety and efficacy of using intralesional 5-FU for the management of different types of BCC (including all the types EXCEPT the infiltrative one), by estimating different outcomes after the intralesional administration of 5-FU to BCC patient. Patients are randomly selected from the outpatient dermatologic clinic in the Aleppo University Hospital (AUH) over a period of 12 months and then these patients are followed up over another 12 months.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent metabolic and hormonal disorder affecting women of reproductive age. Limited data exists on Syrian women's PCOS awareness and health behaviors. This study aimed to gauge PCOS prevalence, knowledge, awareness, and health-related practices among Syrian women. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted from 11 February to 27 October 2022, targeting Syrian women aged 18-45. Collaborators from specific medical universities distributed a questionnaire adapted from a Malaysian paper through social media platforms. Out of 1840 surveyed Syrian women, 64.2% were aged 21-29, and 69.6% held bachelor's degrees. Those with a bachelor's degree exhibited the highest mean knowledge score (12.86), and women previously diagnosed with PCOS had a higher mean knowledge score (13.74) than those without. Approximately 27.4% were confirmed PCOS cases, and 38.9% had possible cases. Women with PCOS were 3.41 times more likely to possess knowledge about the condition. The findings suggest a moderate level of PCOS knowledge and health-related practices among Syrian women, emphasizing the need for increased awareness. Consistent local PCOS screening programs, in collaboration with obstetrics and gynecology professionals, are crucial for improving understanding and clinical symptom recognition of this condition among Syrian women.

BACKGROUNDA monkeypox (MPOX) outbreak occurred in May 2022. On June 3, 2022, the WHO Blueprint organized a consultation on MPOX research knowledge gaps and priority research questions because the engagement of health care providers (HCPs) in providing accurate information and the public's motivation to adapt protective behaviour were crucial. Thus, we conducted this study to explore the knowledge issues, animal patterns, and interactions of HCPs in the context of MPOX and COVID-19 during the MPOX outbreak.METHODSWe conducted a cross-sectional web-based survey among 816 HCPs working in governmental health facilities from many countries, mainly Syria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Cameroon, in September 2022.RESULTSFour hundred and sixty (56.37%) were aged between 18 and less than 35 years old. About 34.44% were physicians, while only 37.25% worked on the frontlines with patients. 37.99% and 5.88% received vaccinations against chickenpox and MPOX, respectively. In the meantime, 55.39% had taken courses or training programmes regarding COVID-19. Regarding knowledge-seeking behaviours (KSBs) about COVID-19, 38.73% were through passive attention, while only 28.8% got their information through active search. Most of the participants (56.86%) had a moderate level of knowledge regarding COVID-19. Only 8.82% had courses or training programmes regarding MPOX. Regarding KSB about MPOX, 50.86% were obtained through passive attention, while only 18.01% and 23.04% got their information through active and passive search, respectively. Most of the participants (57.60%) had a poor level of knowledge regarding MPOX. The regression analysis of the MPOX knowledge score revealed that individuals working on the frontlines with patients and those who had training programmes or courses were shown to have a higher score by 1.25 and 3.18 points, respectively.CONCLUSIONSThe studied HCPs had poorer knowledge about the MPOX virus than they did about the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Training programmes and education courses had an impact on their knowledge.

作者: Al-Duihi, Heba Al-Hamed ; Al-Duihi, Hiba Al-Hamed ; Alchab, Lama ; Hammal, Abdulrazzaq

Dental caries and oral infections result from various causes, and the germs responsible for these diseases show an increase in resistance towards the standard antibiotics used in treatment due to the inappropriate and indiscriminate use of these antibiotics.Research has directed towards making use of natural products to treat these infections.In this paper, a study was conducted to prepare nanoparticles of hydroxyapatite based on pure chem. materials.The prepared particles were characterized using XRD, FTIR, and AFM techniques, tests confirmed the formation of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles 80 nm.Active compounds were extracted from the Syrian Inula plant using an ethanol solvent.The active compounds present in the extract were identified using gas chromatog. technol.Equipped with a GC-MASS mass spectrometer.The plant extract was loaded onto the prepared hydroxyapatite particles.The main bacterial species causing dental caries were obtained from Aleppo University laboratoriesThe sensitivity of the tested germs to a group of standard antibiotics and the prepared hydroxyapatite nanoparticles modified with the plant extract were studied.The results proved the effectiveness of the prepared particles against the studied germs.It exceeded the effectiveness of all studied antibiotics.
