The use of recombinant human factor in intralesional diabetic foot has been the subject of several studies that have proven its effectiveness, to the extent of avoiding amputation. Its effectiveness on chronic wounds is currently being studied, with relevant results. We analyzed the results of a series of patients with chronic wounds treated in the Plastic Surgery Department of the Mohammed VI Medical Center in Marrakech.

[Surgical treatment of scrotal lymphedema].

Scrotal elephantiasis is defined as an increase in the scrotal volume which can reach a very large size. This study involved O.H, a married man aged 70 years, father of 4 children, farmer, native of and resident in Agadir (south of Morocco).

The bacteriological profile of the burned patients in the center of burns in CHU Mohamed VI Marrakech (about 123 cases).

The bacterial nosocomial infection is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality for burned patient; we conducted a retrospective study of 123 patients hospitalized in the burns center CHUMED VI of Marrakechover a period of 3 years, from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2016. The criteria for nosocomial infection were those of the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta in 1988. Incidence rates were calculated.

Marjolin's ulcer refers to the malignant, ulcerous transformation of burn scars or any other wounds. The predominant histological type is squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and it is characterized by its aggressiveness and increased risk of recurrence and metastases compared to non-SCC scars. The work presented here is a retrospective study of 21 cases of Marjolin's ulcer, collected at the plastic surgery department of the CHU Mohammed VI in Marrakesh, with the aim of addressing the epidemiological, therapeutic and evolutionary aspects of this pathology.

Removal of two cationic dyes from a textile effluent by filtration-adsorption on wood sawdust.

Background: Wastewater from textile industry contains various contaminants such as dyes, surfactants and heavy metals. Textile dyes have synthetic origin and complex aromatic molecular structures that make them difficult to biodegrade when discharged in the ecosystem. The objective of this study was to examine the decolourisation of textile effluents containing cationic dyes by filtration-adsorption on wood sawdust from two different origins; fir as an example of a conifer tree, and beech as an example of a deciduous one, and to explain the adsorption mechanism.

Quantification of metallothionein-like proteins in the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis using RP-HPLC fluorescence detection.

A HPLC-fluorescence method, using the fluorophore SBD-F (ammonium-7-fluorobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole-4-sulfonate), was adapted for the quantification of metallothioneins and their isoforms from the Moroccan mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. The method was first optimized using a rabbit liver metallothionein. The effects of EDTA, tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine, and SBD-F on the labeling efficiency were studied.

Efficacy and tolerability of acetazolamide in migraine prophylaxis: a randomised placebo-controlled trial.

Background: Familial hemiplegic migraine and episodic ataxia type 2 (EA2) are allelic disorders with distinct types of mutations in the CACNA1A gene. EA2 attacks are remarkably sensitive to acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. The effectiveness of acetazolamide in migraine prophylaxis is unknown.

Application of coupled liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in photolysis studies of the herbicide triflusulfuron-methyl.

The photochemical fate of the herbicide triflusulfuron-methyl in aqueous solution under UV light (lambda > 290 nm) was investigated. Nine photoproducts were detected and tentatively identified by LC/MS and LC/MS/MS analysis. The main routes of degradation involve the cleavage and/or contraction of the sulfonylurea bridge with the elimination of sulfur dioxide, which increases the acidity of the reaction medium.
