Published: January 2015

Local anaesthetics are an integral part of most dental procedures and are therefore widely used and safely applied. Though rare, complications may occur and can be categorized as local or systemic. In the majority they are of minor nature but there is a potential for severe and possibly lethal side effects. Local complications are nerve damage (mainly the lingual and the inferior alveolar nerve), lesions of vascular structures, hematoma formation, temporary palsy of the facial nerve and post injection pain being the most common local complication. Examples for systemic complications are allergic reactions, cardiovascular complications, intoxication and psychogenic reactions.

Objectives: Nepenthes, sometimes known as tropical pitcher plants or monkey cups, is a carnivorous plant genus that contains more than 160 species. Nepenthes khasiana, India's sole representative of the genus, is a rare and endangered dioecious plant endemic to North-east India. Despite the fact that it is a prominent insectivorous plant in the Nepenthaceae family, genomic resources for the species are limited, making genomic breeding and understanding the genetic basis of botanical carnivory difficult.

Department of Health Services, Epidemiology and Disease Control Division, Ministry of Health and Population, Kathmandu, Nepal.

Background: The global elimination of leprosy transmission by 2030 is a World Health Organization (WHO) target. Nepal's leprosy elimination program depends on early case diagnosis and the performance of health workers and facilities. The knowledge and skills of paramedical staff (Leprosy Focal Person, LFP) and case documentation and management by health facilities are therefore key to the performance of health care services.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a global health problem, including in Indonesia, with East Lombok as a high prevalence region. Although control programmes have been implemented, TB cases remain high. Patient behaviours that are less supportive of treatment, such as non-compliance and social stigma, pose a challenge to TB control efforts in this area.

Background: The Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain (IGH) genomic region is responsible for the production of circulating antibodies and warrants careful investigation for its association with COVID-19 characteristics. Multiple allelic variants within and across different IGH gene segments form a limited set of haplotypes. Previous studies have shown associations between some of these haplotypes and clinical outcomes of COVID-19.
