Postoperative caesarean section infections remain a public health problem because of their high frequency, the cost of treating them and their seriousness. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the frequency, risk factors and germs responsible for post-caesarean section surgical site infections in the obstetrics and gynaecology department of the commune I referral health centre in Bamako. Materials and methods: We conducted a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study over a 12-month period from 1er January to 31 December 2019. All women who underwent caesarean delivery in the department during the study period were included. Results: Out of 9158 deliveries we recorded́1793 caesarean sections, i.e. 19.58%. Among the 1793 cases of caesarean section we recorded 50 cases of surgical site infection or 2.78%. Long labour was the most common infectious risk factor (46%). The germs found were Escherichia coli, staphylococcus aureus, streptococcus agalactiaes, proteus mirabilis and proteus vulgaris. Conclusion: Bacterial infections of the post-caesarean surgical site are frequent in our department. Better antenatal care and adequate monitoring of labour, combined with compliance with infection prevention rules, can help to significantly reduce these post-caesarean complications.","PeriodicalId":471520,"journal":{"name":"Scholars journal of applied medical sciences","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135294766","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}

Traditionally, appendectomy has been the standard treatment. However, recent literature suggests that conservative antibiotic treatment could be a viable option, particularly for uncomplicated cases in children. Aim of the study: The aim of the study was to evaluate the outcomes of conservative treatment for uncomplicated acute appendicitis in children. Methods: From July 2017 to March 2019, a prospective observational study was conducted at Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Bangladesh, involving 62 children with uncomplicated acute appendicitis. They received conservative treatment, including supportive care, for five days. Patients who responded positively within 24 hours continued for at least five days before discharge and underwent a 6-month follow-up. Results: The study encompassed 62 patients, with a mean age of 8.95 years, and a slight male predominance (61.3% male, 38.7% female). Clinical findings revealed a notable decrease in pain intensity (9.42 to 0.77), temperature (101.02º to 98.90º), and inflammatory markers (CRP: 28.13 ± 11.56 mg/L to 9.78 ± 7.50 mg/L) from admission to day 5. The mean duration of hospital stay was 5.26 ± 0.63 days. Remarkably, 95.1% of patients successfully recovered with conservative treatment, while 4.9% required surgery as part of their treatment course. Conclusion: This study found some potential benefits of conservative treatment for uncomplicated acute appendicitis in children. Significant improvements in clinical parameters and a high success rate emphasize its potential as a viable alternative to surgery in select cases, warranting further exploration in pediatric healthcare practices.","PeriodicalId":471520,"journal":{"name":"Scholars journal of applied medical sciences","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135427430","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}

Despite CSU being commonly associated with adults, the selected studies consistently demonstrate its presence in pediatric populations. Prevalence rates vary by region, with Western countries reporting figures between 0.1% to 0.3% among children, while some Asian populations exhibit higher rates. These discrepancies may stem from genetic, environmental, and ethnic factors. Additionally, the review emphasizes the substantial impact of CSU on children's lives, disrupting sleep, daily activities, and emotional well-being. Comorbidities, including other allergic diseases, are also prevalent among pediatric CSU cases, necessitating comprehensive clinical assessments and integrated management. The review addresses diagnostic challenges, stressing the importance of accurate differentiation from other urticarial conditions and systemic disorders. It explores evolving insights into CSU's pathophysiology in children, with emerging research implicating autoimmunity and chronic inflammation. In this review reaffirms that CSU affects children, with varying prevalence rates worldwide. It underscores the substantial burden on affected children and the need for accurate diagnosis, multidisciplinary care, and further research to understand CSU's mechanisms and risk factors in children better, ultimately improving their quality of life and outcomes.","PeriodicalId":471520,"journal":{"name":"Scholars journal of applied medical sciences","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135721009","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}

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the relationship between melasma and thyroid function indicators, including thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), and thyroid antibodies, particularly anti-thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO) and antithyroglobulin antibody. A comprehensive search across multiple databases identified 39 relevant studies for analysis. The systematic review and meta-analysis were ultimately conducted based on the data extracted from these 39 selected studies. The meta-analysis revealed significant differences in thyroid function indicators between individuals with melasma and control groups. Melasma patients exhibited higher TSH levels (SMD = 0.33, 95% CI: 0.18, 0.47) and lower T4 levels (SMD = -1.50, 95% CI: -2.96, -0.04). However, no significant difference in T3 levels was observed (SMD = -0.01, 95% CI: -0.20, 0.19). Notably, the presence of anti-TPO antibodies was significantly associated with melasma (Fisher = 26.80, P = 0.020). Gender-specific analyses revealed more pronounced thyroid function differences among women with melasma, suggesting potential hormonal influences. Melasma predominantly affects women and often exhibits exacerbations during pregnancy, indicating a complex interplay between sex hormones and thyroid function in pigmentation regulation. These findings have clinical implications for dermatologists and endocrinologists. Dermatologists should consider thyroid evaluation in melasma patients, especially in cases with treatment resistance. For endocrinologists, melasma could serve as a cutaneous marker for underlying thyroid dysfunction, particularly in women. Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying this association and its temporal aspects. Longitudinal studies could provide insights into whether thyroid ........","PeriodicalId":471520,"journal":{"name":"Scholars journal of applied medical sciences","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135720837","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}
