Evaluation of the outcomes of fistulotomy with primary sphincter reconstruction in the management of high trans-sphincteric fistula and supra-sphincteric fistula-in-ano : A single-center prospective cohort study.

Background: Supra-sphincteric and high trans-sphincteric fistula are very challenging procedures for both the patient and the surgeon. We aimed to evaluate the outcomes of anal sphincter repair in the management of supra-sphincteric and high trans-sphincteric fistula-in-ano in terms of postoperative wound infection, bleeding, incontinence to flatus or stool, and recurrence within 1 year.

Patients And Methods: This single-center prospective cohort trial conducted from June 2020 to December 2023 at the Ain Shams University Hospitals included 20 patients who presented with supra-sphincteric or high trans-sphincteric fistula.

The effect of ibuprofen sustained release oral premedication on intraoperative and postoperative pain: A randomised clinical trial.

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of ibuprofen sustained release (SR) oral premedication on the efficacy of buccal infiltration (BI) with intraoperative and postoperative pain after single-visit root canal treatment. Sixty patients diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis and apical periodontitis in mandibular molar were divided into two groups.

SARS-CoV-2 genome variations and evolution patterns in Egypt: a multi-center study.

A serious global public health emergency emerged late November 2019 in Wuhan City, China, by a new highly pathogenic virus, SARS-CoV-2. The virus evolution spread has been tracked by three developing databases: GISAID, Nextstrain and PANGO to understand its circulating variants.

Recently, intravenous (IV) acetaminophen has been tested in this population. This meta-analysis aimed to synthesize evidence from published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about the efficacy of IV acetaminophen in reducing pain scores in postoperative craniotomy patients.
