A Review of Dietary and Lifestyle Management of Pre-Eclampsia and Postpartum Eclampsia.

Eclampsia is a prevailing hypertensive disorder that poses more significant risks to mothers and neonates globally. This review aimed to investigate eclampsia [preeclampsia and postpartum eclampsia (posteclampsia)] and the supportive role of dietary and lifestyle management. The review was compiled by searching various engines such as Google Scholar, Research Gate, BASE, PubMed Central, National Center for Biotechnology Information, and other related search engines.

Objective: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of serum Presepsin for bacterial sepsis in paediatric patients keeping blood culture as the gold standard test.

Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Chemical Pathology, Paediatric Emergency Department and Intensive Care Unit, King Edward Medical University (KEMU), Mayo Hospital Lahore, from December 2020 to May 2021.

Evaluating the anti-arthritic potential of walnut (Juglans regia L.) in FCA induced Sprague Dawley rats.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune progressive disease, associated with many pathophysiological consequences. Owing to the adverse effects and higher costs of pharmaceuticals, people are now looking for complementary and alternative remedies. In this milieu, the present study was designed to explore the therapeutic potential of walnuts against FCA-induced arthritis in rat models.

Co-supplementation of Zinc and Calcium Suppresses Bio-absorption of Lead in Sprague Dawley Rats.

Lead (Pb) is a widespread environmental toxicant and its toxicity causes huge health impacts. The present study was conducted to examine the protective role of zinc (Zn) and calcium (Ca) supplements against bio-absorption of Pb in blood and organs including the liver and kidney. Hence, Sprague Dawley rats were divided in to five groups.

Probing the antioxidant potential of Juglans regia (walnut) against arthritis-induced oxidative stress in Sprague Dawley rats.

Oxidative stress is the underlying cause of various chronic diseases and can contribute to its progression. Plant-based therapeutics are effective in the prevention of various chronic diseases through the management of underlying causes. Walnuts owing to their rich phytochemistry possess antioxidative potential.

Wound Leakage With the Use of Calcium Sulphate Beads in Prosthetic Joint Surgeries: A Systematic Review.

Since its first use as a bone void filler at the end of the 19th century, calcium sulphate products have been adapted in different ways to aid orthopaedic surgeons. Calcium sulphate local antibiotic delivery systems offer a promising solution in the delivery of high antibiotic concentrations locally for an extended period of time. Over the years, multiple centres have reported side effects such as wound drainage, heterotrophic ossification and hypercalcaemia.

The Risk of Iatrogenic Hypercalcemia in Patients Undergoing Calcium Sulphate Beads Implantation in Prosthetic Joint Surgery: A Systematic Review.

Calcium sulphate beads are increasingly being used in the management of prosthetic joint infections (PJI). Traditionally their use was limited to a void or dead space-filling combined with other additives such as Hydroxyapatite. Over the last decade, they have been developed to act more frequently as an antibiotics delivery system.
