Article Synopsis
  • - Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare and serious heart condition often occurring during or after pregnancy; this study assessed its outcomes in North Africa over a 12-year period from 2010 to 2022.
  • - Out of 27 PPCM patients studied, most presented symptoms like severe dyspnea and had a low average heart function measurement (LVEF of 30%); complications included pulmonary edema (85%) and the need for ECMO support in two patients.
  • - The follow-up revealed that 67% of patients showed recovery in heart function, but the overall mortality rate was 15%, with significant mortality associated with factors like past pregnancies and poor prenatal care.

Single layer graphene (SLG) was synthesized via high-quality chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on high-quality copper and subsequently transferred onto SiO2 and on n-GaAs substrates with varying doping electron concentrations (n = 1016, 1017, 5 × 1017, 1018, and 5 × 1018 cm-3). The n-GaAs substrates were grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The optical properties of the SLG were investigated through photoluminescence (PL) and Raman spectroscopy measurements.

Introduction And Importance: Quadriceps palsy is a sign of femoral nerve injury. Classically it is a compression of the nerve by a haematoma of the iliopsoas muscle in haemophiliacs and patients on anticoagulants. Could this haematoma form after a trauma in a healthy athlete?

Case Presentation: We report a case of 16-year-old kickboxer with no previous history who had been complaining of the left groin for 3 weeks after being struck in the left iliac fossa.

Background: This cross-sectional study aimed to describe and discuss the epidemiology of mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) in Tunisia.

Methods: Patients diagnosed with a MPS disorder in two referral laboratories in Tunisia between 1999 and 2021 were included. Diagnosis was based on clinical and radiological features and analysis of urinary glycosaminoglycans, and enzyme assay in some of the patients.
