Five cases of acute trichinosis imported from Egypt (four of them have been anatomically and serologically proved) have been recently observed at the Ambroise-Paré Hospital. The patients had been contaminated at Cairo. All of them but one presented atypical clinical picture. One of them was complicated with myocarditis, making the pronostic more severe. In 3 cases out of 5 immunological tests and blood eosinophilia were right one case remaining doubtful these reactions being negative. An anthelminthic, thiabenzadole, associated with corticotherapy, seems to have been efficient.

Understanding Egypt's dependence on wheat imports is crucial for enhancing food security and economic stability. This study aims to identify the extent of Egypt's wheat import dependency and recommend measures for increasing food self-sufficiency. We employed index analysis and an econometric model to analyze data sourced from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Observatory of Economic Complexity (OEC), Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), World Bank (WB), and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the biomechanical performance of different designs of three-unit implant-supported prostheses using two materials (Zirconia and PEKK) under various loading conditions.
- Three models were created with different implant placements to analyze three designs: distal cantilever, fixed-fixed, and mesial cantilever, utilizing finite element analysis for stress evaluation.
- Results indicated that the fixed-fixed design performed best, with PEKK showing lower stress in some areas but higher stress in others compared to Zirconia, highlighting the importance of design and material choice in prosthodontics.

Statement Of Problem: Duplicating complete dentures and achieving accurately fitting prostheses poses a challenge. Conventional methods are often time-consuming and susceptible to human error. Advancements in digital technology for denture fabrication offer a promising alternative to conventional duplication techniques, but studies comparing the methods are lacking.

Cancer cells are known to express the Warburg effect-increased glycolysis and formation of lactic acid even in the presence of oxygen-as well as high glutamine uptake. In tumors, cancer cells are surrounded by collagen, immune cells, and neoangiogenesis. Whether collagen formation, neoangiogenesis, and inflammation in cancer are associated with the Warburg effect needs to be established.
