Twenty one (21) experimental rats weighing about 90-120 g and divided into three groups consisting of seven animals were used. The control group was fed with normal rat feed and water, while the experimental groups the low and high groups received (300 mg/kgBw) and (500 mg/kgBw) of the extract daily by oral gavage method for thirty one (31) days. All animals were sacrificed a day after the end of the extract administration by cervical dislocation. The prostate was removed, weighed and fix in 10% buffer formalin. Result showed that following administration of extract of Parkia biglobosa, a significant increase was observed in the test group. Histological observation show that administration of Parkia biglobosa at high dose and long duration could result to cystic changes in the epithelium. Study reveals that these focal areas of cystic changes are prognosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Other histological observation shows that administration of aqueous extract of Parkia biglobosa at high dose reveal congestion of blood vessels and functional hyperplasia characterized by increased in-folding of the glandular epithelium resulting in the decrease in glandular diameter. Histochemical observation reveals a weak PAS-positive epithelial nuclei and a weak to negative PAS- positive cytoplasm, studies reveal that this could cause atrophic tubules and reactive hyperplasia.","PeriodicalId":344832,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Clinical and Developmental Anatomy","volume":"151 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129626907","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}

Depending on the type of surface, SARS-CoV-2 can remain viable between eight hours to several days. The surfaces are contaminated when virus-containing droplets land on surfaces, or when someone with contaminated hands touches these surfaces. Virus contamination in both health care as well as non-health care settings can be reduced by good disinfection practices. Cleaning and disinfection is fundamental because it kills any remaining germs on the surface and thereby reduces the spread of germs. Therefore disinfection of the health care environment is vital in reducing infection rate. Following strict cleaning and disinfection protocols is the key to make sure that the patient as well as the health care worker remains safe. It is also important to increase awareness on how to clean and disinfect the articles used for Covid patient, so that the disease not spread to other patients and at the same time health care workers are protected. The disinfectant and its concentration should be carefully selected to avoid or minimize toxic effects on household members and also avoid damaging surfaces.","PeriodicalId":344832,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Clinical and Developmental Anatomy","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114599837","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}

A total of 300 nail samples carefully aseptically collected from 30 consented individuals include artificial and natural fingernails from both male and female students of The Oke-Ogun Polytechnic, Saki. The students’ consent were sought for and other ethical issues were complied with as stipulated by the Institutional Ethical Committee. The fingernails were swabbed with sterile swab sticks and thereafter inoculated on the surface of suitably prepared media plates and sub-cultured to obtain pure isolates. Morphological and biochemical tests were carried out on the isolates to confirm the isolates. All students were found to harbour diverse microbes on their undernails. The microorganisms isolated include: E.coli 16.6%, Staphylococcus aureus 22.2%, Streptococcus spp 13.88%, Bacillus spp 25%, members of the Acinetobacter 2.77%, Salmonella spp 13.88%, Fungi 5.55%. The suspected Fungi isolates were sent for sequencing for further identification and characterization. The highest prevalence was found to be more in females than in their male counterparts, which could be as a result of unhygienic practices especially nail-fixing related of artificial nails because those with artificial nails keep longer nails than keeping natural nails. This result further confirmed that fingernails are a possible reservoir of several microbes and could be implicated in the spread of more virulent microorganisms.","PeriodicalId":344832,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Clinical and Developmental Anatomy","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131682367","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}

In this study, the effect of ethanol leaf extract of Moringa oleifera was evaluated against quinine toxicity on nissl granules, immunohistochemistry of inferior colliculus and oxidative system of Wistar rats. Fifty Wistar rats weighing 180 – 200g were alloted into 10 groups of 5 rats each. Group 1 served as control while Groups 2 to 10 were the treatment groups. Groups 2 – 4 received 10, 20 and 30 mg/kg body weight of quinine hypochloride injection intramuscularly eight hourly for 7 days. Groups 5 – 7 were orally administered 250, 500 and 750 mg/kg body weight of M. oleifera leaf extract daily for 7 days respectively. Group 8 received 250mg/kg of leaf extract orally and intramuscular (IM) 10mg/kg of quinine; Group 9 was treated with oral 500mg/kg of the extract and IM 20mg/kg of quinine while Group 10 received 750mg/kg of the extract orally and IM 30mg/kg of quinine for 7 days. Results revealed that quinine significantly (p < 0.05) decreased the activities of anti-oxidative enzymes (superoxide dismutase and catalase) and increased lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde, MDA) in treated rats. However, Moringa oleifera leaf extract showed significant increase in the activities of anti-oxidant enzymes and decreased lipid peroxidation. Histomorphological and immunohistochemical observations revealed that quinine caused neuronal distortions, nuclear degenerations, and depletion of Nissl granules, vascular congestions and vacuolations and increased astrogliosis in the inferior colliculus. Incorporation of the extract to the quinine treated groups revealed neuronal regenerations, increased staining intensity and density of the Nissl granules, reduced astrogliosis and restoration in the inferior colliculuscyto-architectures. In conclusion, Moringa oleifera leaf extract can be used to ameliorate the adverse effects of quinine toxicity on inferior colliculus.","PeriodicalId":344832,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Clinical and Developmental Anatomy","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133747294","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}

The present study aimed at generating 3D skull models incorporating middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms and in assessing their anatomical accuracy and utility as training and preoperative planning tools. Two aneurysm models were generated. Initially, a full skull (model A) and subsequently a half skull (model B) using white polyactic acid (PLA) filament incorporating two arterial networks with hard black PLA filament (in model A) and a softer semitransparent filament (in model B). The models were based on computed tomographic angiography (CTA) of a female patient suffering from bilateral unruptured middle cerebral aneurysms. Model A, a high contrast model, was designed for anatomical illustration purposes. Model B was designed to allow for clipping simulations. The anatomical accuracy of the two models compared to CTA was assessed by measuring their dimensions at the neck, proximal, distal branches and fundus, using an electronic micrometer. The utility of the models for the comprehension of the underlying anatomy, pathology and preoperative planning was evaluated by means of online questionnaires following clipping simulations conducted by neurosurgery residents and specialized neurosurgeons. Of the two 3D printed models generated, model B (clipping model) showed the highest degree of anatomical accuracy. The results of the online survey on the utility of the proposed models indicate that the majority of participants accepted the innovation with positive responses and approve the use of 3D printed aneurysm models for preoperative planning and resident training.","PeriodicalId":344832,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Clinical and Developmental Anatomy","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125184627","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}

Nasal reflux and hypernasal voice are the two major sequel after surgery that can affect patient social involvement and can have great psychological impact. The prosthodontist is limited by the properties of the materials available for facial restorations, the mobility of soft tissue surrounding the defects, the difficulty of establishing retention for large prosthesis, and the patient ability to accept the outcome. The outcome of prosthesis can be improved remarkably due to better coordination between surgeon and prosthodontist and careful designing of prosthesis. Dramatic improvement in the acceptance of prosthesis is seen if the prosthodontist participation can begin early in the course of patient care which ultimately will increase the quality of life (QOL) of the patient.","PeriodicalId":344832,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Clinical and Developmental Anatomy","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126600495","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}
