Aim To assess the patterns of nailfold capillaroscopy in psoriatic domains and compare these patterns with control groups. Patients and methods A total of 150 patients with psoriasis and PSA were subdivided into five subgroups: group 1 included 30 patients with predominant peripheral PSA; group 2 included 30 patients with predominant peripheral PSA and/or dactylitis, as well as enthesitis; group 3 included 30 patients with predominant axial affection; group 4 included 30 patients with predominant axial affection and/or dactylitis, as well as enthesitis; and group 5 included 30 patients with predominant skin and/or nail affection. In addition, group 6 was the control group, which included 25 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and group 7 included 25 patients with systemic sclerosis. Results Capillary density was statistically significantly lower among group 7 and higher among group 5. Tortuous capillaries were statistically significantly higher among group 2. However, group 5 had the least tortuous capillaries. Microhemorrhage, angiogenesis, and subpapillary venous plexus were statistically significantly higher among group 7. However, there was no statistically significant difference among the psoriatic groups regarding microhemorrhage, whereas angiogenesis was statistically significantly lower among group 5. Conclusion PSA showed low capillary density, increased tortuous capillaries and capillary hemorrhage, more visibility of subpapillary venous plexus, and dilated capillaries in comparison with patients with rheumatoid arthritis, whereas systemic sclerosis had specific pattern.","PeriodicalId":22975,"journal":{"name":"The Scientific Journal of Al-Azhar Medical Faculty, Girls","volume":"1 1","pages":"667 - 672"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91202091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It can be detected by abnormality in heart rate recovery, which is defined as decline in heart rate within the first few minutes following a graded exercise stress test. Aim To detect cardiac autonomic neuropathy in type II diabetic patients using heart rate recovery. Patients and methods This study included 45 individuals, 30 diabetic patients in case group and 15 healthy individuals as a control. All participants underwent history taking, clinical examination, laboratory investigations (FBS, PPBS, HbA1c, kidney function test and liver enzymes), comprehensive transthoracic echocardiographic examination, 24 h Holter monitor and exercise ECG test to assess heart rate recovery. Results 30 diabetic patients (7 male and 23 females, with mean age 40±3.5 years) and 15 healthy individuals (4 males and 11 females with mean age 36±5.8 years) participated in this study. Cases group had significant increase in FBS, PPBS, HbA1c and serum creatinine compared to control group. Patients had significant decrease in PNN50, SDNN, LF and HF in the 24 h Holter monitoring as well as significant delay in heart rate recovery at 1st and 2nd minutes compared to control group.

Aim The aim of this study was to assess serum TMAO and its relation with insulin resistance (IR) and cardiovascular risk indices in type 2 diabetic patients. Patients and methods This case–control study was conducted on 60 type 2 diabetic patients and 28 healthy age- and sex-matched individuals. Patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of ischemic heart disease (IHD). Fasting and 2-h postprandial blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, glycosylated hemoglobin, fasting serum insulin, and serum TMAO were measured. Assessment of IR index by using Homeostatic Model Assessment HOMA-IR was done. Neck ultrasound was done to assess carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT). Results All diabetic patients had significantly elevated TMAO values than controls. TMAO levels correlated positively with fasting serum insulin and HOMA-IR in IHD-diabetic patients, and correlated negatively with CIMT in diabetic patients both with and without IHD. Conclusion Serum TMAO levels were significantly higher in type 2 diabetic patients than controls. TMAO showed a positive correlation with fasting insulin and HOMA-IR in the IHD-diabetic patients and a negative correlation with CIMT in diabetics both with and without IHD. Serum TMAO more than 7 ngml may be considered a potential diagnostic biomarker for T2DM with IHD in Egyptians with T2DM.

Iron deficiency, iron-deficiency anemia, and inflammatory processes either related to infection or sterile inflammatory response represent risk factors for PTD (Genc and Ford, 2010). Bovine lactoferrin (BLF), an emerging important regulator of iron and inflammatory homeostasis, can represent a new therapeutic approach for PTD, with significant improvement of maternal serum interleukin 6 (IL-6) after oral administration. Aim The goal of the study was to evaluate the role of BLF in preventing PTD associated with sterile inflammation between the gestational age of 28 and 34 weeks. Patients and methods The study was carried out at Al Zahra University Hospital at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, including 50 patients, with single pregnancy, no previous preterm birth, gestational age between 28 and 34 weeks, rhythmic uterine contraction (three to five contraction in 10 min; every one last from 40 to 60 s), cervical dilation of 2–4 cm and cervical effacement of ∼50–80% by local pelvic examination, and cervical length 2–3 cm and/or funneling by ultrasound. On admission, all patients were given 100 mg BLF and subjected to withdrawal of 5-ml blood, and samples were sent to Clinical Pathology Department to detect IL-6 before and after BLF intake. Results Oral BLF administration blocked further shortening of cervical length and prolonged pregnancy. This prospective study provides strong evidence for a role of BLF in PTD treatment, thus extending the therapeutic potential of this multifunctional protein. Conclusion Determination of maternal serum IL-6 may be useful for management of patients with preterm labor, and BLF can represent a new therapeutic approach of PTD.","PeriodicalId":22975,"journal":{"name":"The Scientific Journal of Al-Azhar Medical Faculty, Girls","volume":"44 1","pages":"299 - 306"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78463872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its diagnosis depends mainly on blood culture that takes at least 48 h to give results. Therefore, searching for biomarkers for early diagnosis is of value. We aimed to assess neutrophil CD64 as an early diagnostic biomarker in early-onset and late-onset neonatal sepsis in full-term and preterm neonates and to compare it with other diagnostic markers, blood culture, and neonatal scores of sepsis. Patients and methods A case–control study was conducted on 60 neonates with clinical sepsis and 30 neonates as control aged from 1 to 28 days of life admitted to NICU in Damanhour Teaching Hospital during the period from 1/8/2018 to 1/4/2019. Studied neonates were evaluated using clinical and laboratory indicators for sepsis, and neutrophil CD64 was measured by flow cytometry. Results There was a statistically significant increase in CD64 of early-onset sepsis and late-onset sepsis groups than control group (P>0.001), either in full-term and preterm neonates, whereas there was no statistically significant difference between early-onset sepsis group and late-onset sepsis group regarding CD64. CD64 at a cutoff point more than 30% had sensitivity of 100%, specificity of 100%, positive predictive value of 100, negative predictive value 100, and area under a curve=1, which means CD64 is the gold standard test. However, C-reactive protein (CRP) at a cutoff point more than 6 mg/l had sensitivity of 71.67%, specificity of 83.33%, and area under a curve=0.78, which means CRP is a good test. Conclusion The level of CD64 was equally increased in neonates with early-onset and late-onset neonatal sepsis and not affected by age or sex and was highly sensitive and specific in diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. There were positive significant correlations between CD64 and both CRP and neonatal score of sepsis, whereas there was an insignificant relation between mean values of CD64 and blood cultures results.","PeriodicalId":22975,"journal":{"name":"The Scientific Journal of Al-Azhar Medical Faculty, Girls","volume":"1 ","pages":"292 - 298"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91469134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

EUS performed before endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients with obstructive jaundice can reduce morbidity and mortality. Aim This study aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of both EUS and ERCP as combined or individual procedures in 30 patients diagnosed with biliary obstruction. Patients and methods From January 2017 to December 2019 in Al Azhar University Hospitals in Cairo, we recruited 30 patients with obstructive jaundice. All the patients underwent clinical examination, laboratory investigations, and abdominal US followed by EUS and ERCP procedures at the same session, and EUS findings were compared with that of ERCP. Results The diagnostic accuracy of EUS was as follows: choledocholithiasis in 92%, and malignant lesions in 95%. EUS showed pathology in 47.3% of patients who had an unknown pathology in biliary system at initial investigations. The overall diagnostic performance of EUS shows that the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy were 90.9, 89, 91.7, 95, and 93.5%, respectively. Regarding common bile duct stone (s), by ERCP, it was present in 13 (43.3%) cases, whereas by EUS, it was present in 12 (40%) cases. Regarding malignant lesions (ampullary tumor, cholangiocarcinoma, and pancreatic tumor), by ERCP, they were present in four (13.3%), seven (23.3%), three (10%) cases, respectively, whereas by EUS, they were present in five (16.6), six (20%), and five (16.6) cases, respectively. The complication rate was 3.3%. Conclusions EUS established high diagnostic accuracy in diagnosing the causes of obstructive jaundice, with no statistically significant difference between ERCP and EUS findings. This accurately guided ERCP need and avoided needless ERCP. EUS and ERCP in a single session for treatment of obstructive jaundice is scientifically valuable.","PeriodicalId":22975,"journal":{"name":"The Scientific Journal of Al-Azhar Medical Faculty, Girls","volume":"19 1","pages":"282 - 285"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73691852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
