The Cervico-Facial Traumatic Injuries (CFTI) can entrain complications and serious aesthetic and functional sequella. The objectives of this study were to determine the frequency of CFTI, to describe the clinical forms and to evaluate the treatment. It was a prospective study conducted from February to July 2010 in the National Donka hospital of the Teaching Hospital of Conakry. The study concerned 265 patients, who benefited a treatment and reevaluated. The young adults aged between 21-30 years were the most affected (38.49%). 74.34 % were men and 25.66 % were females with a sex ratio of 2.9. Road accident was the etiology of injuries in 70.57% of cases. Clinically, the lesions were dominated by the wounds type II (49.05 %) followed by the wounds type I (48.30 %) and 2,65 % of wounds was type III. The treatment was medical and surgical. Evolution was considered favorable in 82.13 % of cases and disfavorable in 17.85 % of cases.

Purpose: Acute kidney injury is a sentinel event affecting colorectal cancer patients either as a consequence of surgery or systemic chemotherapy. It is highly correlated with both short and long-term adverse outcomes. This work aimed to study the prevalence, risk factors, and impact on survival of postoperative (PO-AKI) and post-chemotherapy (PC-AKI) after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery in Egyptian patients.

Introduction: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the deadliest malignancies worldwide, with a low five-year survival rate of less than 10%. Transforming growth factor β regulator 4 (TBRG4) is differentially expressed in PC tissues, but its specific functions and regulatory role in PC have not been clarified.
Methods: TBRG4 mRNA expression in PC cells was measured by qRT-PCR.
