This study aims to produce functional yogurt with enhanced antioxidant, anticancer, antiviral, and antimicrobial properties by including safe purslane extract in yogurt formulation; the yogurt was preserved for 30 days at 4 °C, and then biochemical fluctuations were monitored.

Evaluation of the outcome of a proposed more physiological bypass surgery technique in morbid obesity: Long term 3 years follows up.

Background: Obesity is a chronic condition that affects millions globally; consequently, bariatric surgery is the key to this serious issue. Bariatric procedures are rapidly expanding in number and methods to address the recognized problems. So, it would make a sense for surgeons and patients if there is a more physiological bypass surgery technique in Morbid obesity.

Physicochemical, functional and sensory properties of probiotic yoghurt flavored with white sapote fruit ().

Unlabelled: Yoghurt is one of the health-functional foods and its nutritive value can be enhanced by adding native fruit. This study aimed to produce novel functional probiotic yoghurt using () strain and White sapote fruits pulp (WSP) at levels of 5, 10, and 15%. WSP contains 19.

Correlation between plain X-ray measurements and DXA scans, and its possible use as a screening tool for performing DXA scans.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a relationship between radiological parameters measured using a plain X-ray and DXA scan score, and whether a plain X-ray can be used as surrogate imaging modality when DXA scan is not readily available.

Methods: We included all patients who had both a DXA scan and a pelvis X-ray done from 1 January 2013 to 31 December 2017. Bone mineral density had been measured by DXA scanning of the femoral neck and the spine.

Sinus laser closure (SiLaC) versus Limberg flap in management of pilonidal disease: A short-term non-randomized comparative prospective study.

Introduction: Fistula Laser Closure (FiLAC) is a method that was originally applied in the treatment of perianal fistulas. Because of promising results, diode lasers were later on used to treat pilonidal sinus disease in a method called sinus Laser Closure (SiLaC). The aim of this study is to compare between SiLaC and Limberg flap in management of pilonidal disease.

Effect of hypothyrodism's medication (T4) on implant osstointegration: A case series and literature search.

Introduction: Hypothyroidism reduces the recruitment, maturation, and activity of bone cells, decreasing bone resorption and formation. Several investigations have reported that T4 replacement therapy is associated with a significant decrease in bone mineral density in various skeletal parts, while others have failed to corroborate these results. The present study describes both a literature review and our own experience with dental implants in patients with hypothyroidism undergoing T4 replacement therapy.

Changing the innate consensus about mesh fixation in trans-abdominal preperitoneal laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty in adults: Short and long term outcome. Randomized controlled clinical trial.

Introduction: Inguinal hernioplasty is the standard treatment for inguinal hernia in adults. Mesh fixation was used to keep mesh in place for which various mesh fixation techniques have been used in laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in adults, but their effectiveness has remained inconclusive.

Aim Of The Work: to evaluate non fixation method of mesh laparoscopic inguinal hernioplasty as safe and effective as regard short and long term outcomes.

Modified perineal linear stapler resection for external rectal prolapse.

Background: rectal prolapse can cause bleeding and fecal incontinence that affects the life quality of patients. The treatment of external rectal prolapse is surgical. There are many procedures (abdominal or perineal) that can be used depending on the severity of the condition and patient tolerability for operation.

Relationship between intra-operative hypotension and post-operative complications in traumatic hip surgery.

Background And Aims: The relationship between intra-operative hypotension and post-operative complications has been recently studied in non-cardiac surgery. Little is known about this relationship in traumatic hip surgery. Our study aimed to investigate this relationship.

Rapid detection of aflatoxin M1 residues in market milk in Aswan Province, Egypt and effect of probiotics on its residues concentration.

Objective: The objectives of our study were to determine the presence of Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in market milk in Aswan province, Egypt and studying the effect of addition of some strains of probiotics microorganisms on AFM1 level in milk.

Materials And Methods: Between July and October 2018, 90 market milk samples (15 Ultra Heat Treated (UHT), 75 raw) were collected from different dairy shops in Aswan City, Egypt to be examined for AFM1 presence by rapid strip test and the results were confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Results: The results revealed that all UHT milk samples were negative, while 37 (49%) raw milk samples were positive for AFM1 residues.

The Diagnostic Value of Arginase-1, FTCD, and MOC-31 Expression in Early Detection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and in Differentiation Between HCC and Metastatic Adenocarcinoma to the Liver.

Background: Early detection of small HCC and differentiation between HCC from AC metastatic to the liver is very essential for surgical pathologists, due to different treatment modalities. Immunohistochemistry plays a very important role in such conditions. In our study, we aimed to identify the diagnostic benefits of Arginase-1, FTCD& MOC-31 in the early detection of HCC in normal or cirrhotic liver, differentiation between HCC and metastatic ACs to the liver, and for early detection of small micro-metastases from ACs to liver.

Comparing Health-Related Quality of Life among Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Different Plans of Treatment, Egypt.

The increased survival of breast cancer (BC) patients by earlier detection and improved treatment outcomes together with younger age at diagnosis, raised the concerns about Quality Of Life among survivors, suffering from treatment side effects. To measure QOL among BC Egyptian females, then to compare HRQOL scores in BC patients receiving different lines of treatment. A comparative cross-sectional study on a sample 142 BC survivor receiving different lines of treatment, using EORTC QLQ-C30, and a BC-specific scale (QLQBR23 scale).

Clinical genomics expands the morbid genome of intellectual disability and offers a high diagnostic yield.

Intellectual disability (ID) is a measurable phenotypic consequence of genetic and environmental factors. In this study, we prospectively assessed the diagnostic yield of genomic tools (molecular karyotyping, multi-gene panel and exome sequencing) in a cohort of 337 ID subjects as a first-tier test and compared it with a standard clinical evaluation performed in parallel. Standard clinical evaluation suggested a diagnosis in 16% of cases (54/337) but only 70% of these (38/54) were subsequently confirmed.
