Examination using slit-lamp biomicroscopy revealed a reed foreign body embedded in the cornea. Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (AS-OCT) provided detailed images, showing the foreign body embedded 300 µm beneath the corneal epithelium but not affecting deeper layers.

The results showed that hepatitis B (73.6%) and C (67.4%) are better known than hepatitis A (52.0%) and E (24.3%). The majority of students (78.0%) knew that HBV can be transmitted by blood, and 62.0% by sexual transmission. For the main mode of transmission of hepatitis C, around two-thirds of respondents (69.0%) indicated transmission by contact with infected blood. Transmission of HVA and HVE viruses was known by 43.5%. The level of knowledge about hepatitis was significantly associated with education levels, medical school affiliation and socio-economic status. Students' preventive practices were positive, but their attitudes towards people with viral hepatitis were negative.Conclusion: Our results suggest that knowledge of hepatitis needs to be improved through awareness and education campaigns, in order to combat these diseases, especially as Morocco has committed to a global movement to eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030.","PeriodicalId":38818,"journal":{"name":"Tunisie Medicale","volume":"102 11","pages":"850-857"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142676997","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}

Radiological evaluation was based on relative gain and loss.Results: In individuals with low pelvic incidence, a prevalence of 72% was observed for type A fracture, whereas types B and C accounted for 45.9% (P<0.05) for backs with high pelvic incidence. The Denis Pain Scale score indicated that 90% of individuals with low incidence backs had scores below 3, whereas only 65.6% of those with high incidences had scores below 3 (P<0.05). The loss of correction for backs with low incidences was measured at 1.2°, while for backs with high incidences, it was 3° (p<0.05).Conclusion: Fractures on backs with low pelvic incidence considered as stiff backs are more frequently of type A, with better functional results and less losses.","PeriodicalId":38818,"journal":{"name":"Tunisie Medicale","volume":"102 11","pages":"922-926"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142677005","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}

All students received questioning, anthropometric measurements and a food survey. According to the International Obesity Task Force (IOTF) body weight curves by gender, a Body Mass Index (BMI) in children ≥ 97th percentile defined overweight, and a BMI ≥ IOTF-30 defined obesity.Results: The mean age of the 105 schoolchildren was 10.8±0.5 years. The average BMI was 19.68±3.86 kg/m². More than a third of students (35.3%) were overweight. Overweight affected 45% of girls and 29.2% of boys. The prevalence of obesity was 8.6% (7 boys and 2 girls). 55.6% of girls and 47.4% of the overweight boys had a high calorie diet.

Clinical and therapeutic parameters as well as data related to the choice of bDMARDs were identified. Direct costs were assessed. Excess costs were considered if the monthly costs exceeded 2200 Tunisian dinars (TD) per patient.Results: The most common CIRD was axial spondylarthritis (AS) in 44% and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in 37.6% of cases. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis represented 2.7% of cases. In Tunisia, prescribing of bDMARDs is concentrated in the coastal regions and follows the distribution of rheumatologists. Certolizumab pegol was the most prescribed agent in 45% of cases. No significant association was found between the choice of bDMARD and the characteristics of patients, CIRD or prescribers. The total monthly cost of bDMARDs was 225,535 ± 1269 TD. Overspending was significantly associated with initial high DAS28 in RA and young age and total hip replacement in AS.Conclusion: Prescription of bDMARDs in CIRD is mainly for AS and in the coastal regions of Tunisia. The burden is considerable, partly due to the high cost of biologics. Data from this study may enable public health managers to better allocate the limited resources available for patient care and to develop medico-economic strategies to reduce health care costs.","PeriodicalId":38818,"journal":{"name":"Tunisie Medicale","volume":"102 11","pages":"910-915"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142677241","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}

Lymph node biopsy revealed numerous granulomas with epithelioid and giant cells. The computed tomography (CT) showed multiple lymph nodes along with interstitial lung disease. The diagnosis of sarcoidosis with pulmonary, mediastinal, lymph node, and nasopharyngeal involvement was retained and the patient was treated with glucocorticoids with disappearance of the submaxillary swelling and of the lymph nodes on the CT. Another 39-year-old woman, with no medical history, presented to the ENT clinic with a three-month history of bilateral nasal obstruction. Nasal endoscopy revealed hyperemia of the nasal mucosa. She was treated with antibiotics without clinical improvement. CT scan of the cranial and facial bones revealed a focal bulge at the nasopharynx's posterior wall, associated with a mucosal thickening of maxillary, frontal, and ethmoid sinuses. A nasal and a lymph node biopsy were then performed, revealing granulomatous inflammation without caseous necrosis. The diagnosis of sarcoidosis with pulmonary, lymph node, and sinonasal involvement was established.

Planification imaging included four-dimensional CT scans and delineation of target volumes and organs-at-risk was done as per international guidelines. Treatment doses were tailored based on tumour location.Results: A total of 10 cases were included. The male-to-female sex ratio was 4:1, with a median age of 69.5 years. Three had unconfirmed primary lung tumours, while five had inoperable stage I-IIA adenocarcinomas primarily due to compromised respiratory function. Two had oligometastatic lung diseases. All underwent recent thoracic-CT and PET-CT evaluations to exclude pulmonary fibrosis. The median lesion size was 40mm. Karnofsky's performance status ranged from 70 to 90, with no contraindications to the supine position. Eight out of 10 patients received 8 fractions of 7.5 Gy at the 80% isodose. For that regimen, the D95%, D99%, and Dmax were respectively, 60 Gy, 56 Gy, 73 Gy. All organs-at-risk dosimetric criteria were met. Acute toxicities included worsened coughs in 2 patients and fatigue in 6. After a mean follow-up of 23 months, no rib fractures or haemoptysis were observed, and no local recurrence was reported on the last chest CT scan.Conclusion: SBRT demonstrates promise for lung cancer treatment, though challenges persist in precise targeting and motion management.
