Background: TURBT is the gold standard treatment for NMIBC. Lasers have been introduced as a minimally invasive option to decrease complication. Holmium and the 2-μm laser TURBT are the most frequently applied lasers in TURBT. The aim of this work was to evaluate Holmium Laser en bloc transurethral resection of bladder tumor (eTURBT) technique in resection of a primary bladder mass in terms of efficacy (Complete resection of the mass, histopathological staging and grading) and safety (operation time, blood loss, bladder perforation) and oncological outcomes (recurrence and progression). Methods: This pilot study included 40 patients with primary bladder mass scheduled for endourological staging procedure with primary solitary mass does not exceed 3 cm in largest dimension and two masses each of them isn't more than 2 cm in maximum diameter. Resection was done enbloc by karl storz 26fr resctoscope and using VersaPulse holmium(YAG) laser by lumenis. Results: Operative time had a mean ± SD of (37.01 ±5.50) min. The average enucleation time had a mean ± SD of (23.11± 6.26) min. blood loss had a mean ± SD of (0.3 ± 0.57). There was no need for blood transfusion at all. Bladder perforation occurred in only one case. Obturator jerk did not occur at all. Postoperative irrigation was indicated in only five cases (12.5%) with a mean ± SD was (1.21±3.32) hours. Postoperative urethral catheter time had mean ± SD was (28.38 ±9.22) hours. Postoperative hospital stay ranged between 1-3 day. In histopathological examination, All included cases revealed TCC, low grade in 19 patients (47.5%) and high grade in 21 patients (52.5%). All specimens contained bladder detrusor muscle, the pathological staging was pTa in 14 patients (35%), pT1 in 22 patients (55%) and pT2a in 4 patients (10%). Conclusions: Holmium laser transurethral en-bloc TURBT is an effective, feasible, and safe procedure for managing NMIBC, as it preserves the entire lamina propria and detrusor muscle in well-intact specimens which lowers recurrence and progression and decreases the need for a second look TURBT.

This paper presents a novel Cyber-Hardware-in-the-Loop (Cyber-HIL) platform for assessing control operation in ship cyber-physical systems. The proposed platform employs cutting-edge technologies, including Docker Containers, real-time simulator OPAL-RT, and network emulator $ns3$, to create a secure and controlled testing and deployment environment for investigating the potential impact of cyber attack threats on ship control systems. Real-time experiments were conducted using an advanced load-shedding controller as a control object in both synchronous and asynchronous manners, showcasing the platform's versatility and effectiveness in identifying vulnerabilities and improving overall Ship Cyber Physical System (SCPS) security. Furthermore, the performance of the load-shedding controller under cyber attacks was evaluated by conducting tests with man-in-the-middle (MITM) and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. These attacks were implemented on the communication channels between the controller and the simulated ship system, emulating real-world scenarios. The proposed Cyber-HIL platform provides a comprehensive and effective approach to test and validate the security of ship control systems in the face of cyber threats., 8 pages, 13 figures, journal under review

There are concerns regarding the protection of significant digital assets because it is noticeable that cyber attackers are outstripping defenses. AI models need specialized cybersecurity and defense keys in order to lower dangers, enhance information privacy, and enable a secure federated knowledge situation. The growth of “artificial intelligence” has controlled the rise of several new fields, including “machine learning” (ML), “natural language processing” (NLP), CPU vision, and several more. Massive volumes of information are produced in the “Internet of Things” (IoT) age and are acquired from a variety of heterogeneous sources, including “mobile devices”, “sensors”, and “social media”. Big Data faces significant challenges in terms of processing, storage, and analytical capabilities. Firewall security has proven to be insufficient as a result of significant restrictions against external attackers. Given that computer worms and viruses, which are intelligent semi-autonomous agents, are responsible for the majority of network-centric cyberattacks, it has become necessary to combat them with intellectual semi-autonomous mediators that can identify, evaluate, and respond to cyberattacks. Specified that the majority of network-centric cyberattacks are produced by CPU worms and illnesses, which are intelligent semi-autonomous agents, it has become important to combat them with intelligent semi-autonomous agents that can recognise, assess, and respond to cyberattacks. The study aims to determine the Big Data Analytics and Machine Learning paradigms for usage in cybersecurity and to make use of big data analytics and machine learning. This study used a case study research methodology. This is because each statistics analytics model for cybersecurity is observed as a unique case that needs to be examined in its own context. Case studies have been used a lot in prior research on cybersecurity. The investigator knows two data analytics models or frameworks through a review of the literature and a study of the 8-person sample. There were eight people interviewed in total. Even if there might not be much data, it is sufficient for the current stages of this investigation. Future studies may look at other publications to discover other data and analytics models that are pertinent to cybersecurity. Table 4 illustrates the overall show of our CART procedure in predicting scores on the banks on the training dataset. On the testing data, the precision of the approach was 83.1%. On the test dataset, the approach got a kappa of 88.76% and a reliability of 92.7%. On the training dataset, the SVM figure's overall accuracy for predicting bank health remained at 79.1%. The Kappa statistic and Kappa SD were 67.6% and 0.14, combined. On the testing data, the approach had an efficiency of 92.7% and a kappa of 88.59%. The efficiency of the randomized forest in the training phase was 85.57 %. Large amounts of information are is for connections and trends, leading to the creation of algorithms for these kinds of relationships and patterns. Passive sources of information include laptop data such as IP address, information security certifications, keypad usage, clickstream trends, and WAP data.

- Abstract
Procedural and hospital outcomes of PCI versus CABG among ACS patients with prior history of CABG remains understudied.Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) formed the two comparison cohorts. Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) from 2015 to 2020 were analyzed using the ICD-10 coding system. Demographic characteristics, baseline comorbidities, and outcomes such as inpatient mortality, cardiogenic shock, mechanical circulatory support, length of stay (LOS), and cost of hospitalization were compared between the two cohorts.A total of 503,900 ACS hospitalizations with prior history of CABG were identified who underwent PCI and CABG (141650 vs 7715, respectively). Median age was 71 vs 67, with male predominance (74.6% vs 75.4%), Caucasian had the most hospitalizations (79.3% vs 75.1%) in the PCI group compared to patients who underwent CABG. A higher burden of smoking (57.1% v 52.6%, p0.0001) was noted in the CABG group. On adjusted analysis, ACS patients undergoing Redo- CABG had a higher risk of in-hospital mortality (aOR 1.69, CI 1.53-1.87, p0.0001) compared to those undergoing PCI. In addition, Redo-CABG group were more likely to have CS (aOR 1.37, CI 1.26-1.48, p0.0001), MCS devices use (aOR 2.61, CI 2.43-2.80,p0.0001), AKI (aOR 1.42, CI 1.34-1.50, p0.0001) and respiratory failure (aOR 1.39, CI 1.29-1.47, p0.0001) as compared to PCI group.CABG in acute myocardial infarction with prior history of CABG is associated with higher cardiovascular complications compared to PCI. Further exploration and individual-patient level risk assessment is crucial.

Background: Neck fractures of the metacarpal bone can alter optimal hand function. Many surgical fixation techniques are described for this fracture with no robust evidence for the best treatment. Recently developed low profile plates may, however, challenge the preference for K-wires. Low profile plates were found to have lower complications than conventional plates in addition to early range of motion and early return to work. The aim of the present study was to determine the best outcome in patients with unstable fracture neck metacarpals using either multiple K wires or low profile mini-plating. Methods: This prospective randomized controlled study included 37 patients suffering from metacarpal neck fractures. patients were designated as group 1 (AIN group; 18 patients), and the other consecutive patients were designated as group 2 (LPP group; 19 patients). Both groups were treated within the first 48 hours of their injury and followed up for a minimum period of 40 weeks; the maximum period of follow up was 48 weeks. Results: No significant differences were found for PVAS, Q-DASH, TAM, time to radiological union or residual deformities at last follow-up. Grip strength, however, was significantly better in the K-wire group. Operative time and time off work were significantly shorter in the k-wire group. Plate group showed prevalent complications both peri and post-operative hitting 63.2 % of the plate group vs 16.7% in K-wire group. Conclusions: Low profile plates with immediate mobilization paradoxically prolonged operative time, technical demand and disturbing the fracture’s biological environment along with the extra cost were thus not justified by results. Antegrade intramedullary K-wire nailing was superior for the management of unstable metacarpal neck fractures.

General Medicine - Abstract
Background The main anesthetic goal in the postoperative period of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is early and pain-free recovery, with return of protective airway reflex. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to regional blocks in patients undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Results Group bupivacaine + dexmedetomidine (BD) showed statistically significantly lower postoperative pain measurements than group bupivacaine (B), longer time to the first request of rescue analgesia, less patients needing rescue analgesia, and less rescue morphine analgesic requirements. Other measurements were insignificantly different between both groups. Conclusions Dexmedetomidine can be used as an adjuvant to regional nerve block in patients undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery. It effectively prolonged postoperative analgesia, decreased postoperative opioid analgesic requirements, and reduced the number of patients needing rescue analgesia.

Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common type of peripheral nerve entrapment; it affects females more than males; it may be idiopathic or secondary to other disorders especially diabetes mellitus. Carpal tunnel syndrome mostly affects manual workers and may be bilateral or unilateral and mainly affects the dominant hand. Carpal tunnel syndrome has characteristic symptoms and signs including paresthesia and pain along median nerve distribution, these symptoms are usually accompanied by positive provocative tests. Electrodiagnostic studies remain the cornerstone in the diagnosis of CTS. Carpal tunnel syndrome can be treated conservatively by activities of daily living instructions, splints, medical treatments as neurotropic drugs and NSAIDs and local steroid injection. Also, it can be treated by surgical decompression in severe cases. Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate local steroid injection in the treatment of CTS. Twenty-one patients with mild and moderate CTS were included in this study. Patients and Methods: This was a prospective study included 21 patients with symptoms and signs of mild to moderate CTS attending the outpatient clinic of orthopedic Department, Tanta University Hospitals in the period between February 2019- January 2020. 1 ml Triamcinolone was used with 2 ml lidocaine. Patient’ hand was rested on towel roll flexed about 30 to 45 degrees and injection was done according to landmarks. Night splint was described for 3 days after injection. Results: In regards to clinical assessment; there was a significant clinical improvement after injection and follow-up period as compared to before injection. In regards to electrophysiological assessment; there was a significant improvement in NCS after injection. Conclusion: Local steroid injection is an effective treatment and recommended as a therapeutic tool in the management of idiopathic mild to moderate CTS.

Background: Tibial pilon fractures are relatively uncommon injuries, representing only 1% of all fractures of the lower limb and 5% to 10% of those of the tibia. Frequent comminution and the thin soft-tissue envelope in the area make the treatment of these fractures challenging. The tibial pilon is characterised by a total absence of muscle coverage and marginal vascularity. Therefore, even moderate trauma often results in extensive soft-tissue damage. Objective: The aim of this present study was to evaluate the arthroscopic assisted (Ilizarov) ring external fixation of distal tibial intra articular (pilon) fractures. Patients and methods: This was a prospective study conducted between February 2012, April 2015 on thirty patients with closed, and Gustilo Types I & II open fractures of pilon fractures of the distal tibia who were admitted to Zagazig University Hospitals. During a period of two years, all cases were treated by Ilizarov fixators with or without limited internal fixation and assessment of intra-articular reduction tibial plafond by arthroscopy. Results: Nineteen patients had right-sided injury, eleven patients had left sided injury and one patient had bilateral injury. At the time of injury, the youngest patient was 19 years old and the oldest was 6o years. The results in relation to pain as distributed according to the fracture. It is noted that the excellent results were with type I & II fracture, while the fair and poor results were with type II and III fracture. Conclusion: The present study provided information on the use and the role of ankle arthroscopy in assisting and evaluation (the value, advantages, techniques of ankle arthroscopy and ring external fixators) of distal tibial intra- articular reduction after pilon fracture. The study showed that this technique might be a good method to manage the pilon fractures.

Depression is one of the commonest psychiatric disorders and is a prominent reason for major health problems worldwide. The prevalence and the dysfunction, morbidity, suffering, and economic burden. Depression can lead to upsurge in the health-seeking performance, diminished excellence of life and increased propensity for desperate tendencies. In the majority of the cases, the affected patients report late and owing to various scales of assessing depression, patients with depressive disorder are often undertreated. As per the Global Burden of Disease report the prevalence of depression is 1.9% among men and 3.2% for women and the overall one-year prevalence increases to 5.8% in men and 9.5% in women. Given the existing epidemiological evolution and demographic, the impact of unhappiness can be tremendous by 2020 with the burden of depression at about 5.7% of all the illnesses. The morbidity bearing will be so huge that and it would be the most important reason for disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), next only to ischemic heart disease. This education expected at to assess the prevalence and correlates of depression among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and impact of treatment on diabetic status, glycemic quality and control of life after 6 months. The scales used in this study was Mini international neuropsychiatric interview – 6.0 , Hamilton Depression Scale (HAM-D), WHO Quality Of Life (WHO-QOL) – BREF scales, Morisky 8-item Medication Adherence Questionnaire. The study has highlighted the prevalence of depression in the study population, positive impact of depression on the treatment compliance, glycemic control and quality of life of the affected patients.

In 1997, during the 41st session of the Regional Committee for the Eastern Mediterranean, the 21 countries in the World Health Organization (WHO) Eastern Mediterranean Region* (EMR) passed a resolution to eliminate† measles (1). In 2015, this goal was included as a priority in the Eastern Mediterranean Vaccine Action Plan 2016-2020 (EMVAP) (2), endorsed at the 62nd session of the Regional Committee (3). To achieve this goal, the WHO Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean developed a four-pronged strategy: 1) achieve ≥95% vaccination coverage with the first dose of measles-containing vaccine (MCV1) among children in every district of each country through routine immunization services; 2) achieve ≥95% vaccination coverage with a second MCV dose (MCV2) in every district of each country either through implementation of a routine 2-dose vaccination schedule or through supplementary immunization activities§ (SIAs); 3) conduct high-quality, case-based surveillance in all countries; and 4) provide optimal measles clinical case management, including dietary supplementation with vitamin A (4). This report describes progress toward measles elimination in EMR during 2013-2019 and updates a previous report (5). Estimated MCV1 coverage increased from 79% in 2013 to 82% in 2018. MCV2 coverage increased from 59% in 2013 to 74% in 2018. In addition, during 2013-2019, approximately 326.4 million children received MCV during SIAs. Reported confirmed measles incidence increased from 33.5 per 1 million persons in 2013 to 91.2 in 2018, with large outbreaks occurring in Pakistan, Somalia, and Yemen; incidence decreased to 23.3 in 2019. In 2019, the rate of discarded nonmeasles cases¶ was 5.4 per 100,000 population. To achieve measles elimination in the EMR, increased visibility of efforts to achieve the measles elimination goal is critically needed, as are sustained and predictable investments to increase MCV1 and MCV2 coverage, conduct high-quality SIAs, and reach populations at risk for not accessing immunization services or living in areas with civil strife.

Background: There is an increasing awareness of the role of dyslipidemia in lupus nephritis patients, no researchers have studied dyslipidemia in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Tabuk. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between dyslipidemia and lupus nephritis in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Methods: This cross-sectional comparative longitudinal hospital-based study was conducted at a rheumatic clinic in the North West Armed Force Hospital (NWAFH) during the period April 2014–June 2015. Seventy-three patients diagnosed with SLE were invited to participate in the study. All participants were required to sign a written informed consent, following which they were interviewed using a structured questionnaire. Data collected include demographic data, clinical characteristics, fasting lipid profile, renal function tests, urine analysis, antinuclear antibody, anti-double-stranded antibodies, complement levels, serum albumin, anticardiolipin, ant bodies, and antiphospholipid antibodies. Lupus nephritis was ascertained by renal biopsy. The research was approved by the ethical committees of both the University of Tabuk and the NWAFH and data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Results: Out of 73 patients with SLE, 86.3% were females with a mean age of 34 ± 6.4 years. Lupus nephritis was evident in 26% of the patients, proteinuria in 44.1%, high total cholesterol in 17.8%, high low-density lipoprotein in 15.1%, high triglycerides in 27.3%, and low high-density lipoproteins in 52.1%. Patients with lupus nephritis had high total cholesterol, high LDL, high TG, and low HDL than those without lupus nephritis P-value < 0.05. Conclusion: Dyslipidemia was more common among patients with SLE nephritis, and an aggressive treatment is recommended to reduce this serious complication. The relatively small size of the study group and the fact that the study was conducted at a single tertiary center are the limitations of this study. Keywords: dyslipidemia, lupus nephritis, Saudi Arabia

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex disease characterized by various endocrine disorders that are the potential cause of anovulation and hyperandrogenism. This heterogeneous syndrome affects about 5– 10% of reproductive-age female population and it can be considered the most common endocrine disorder affecting women during reproductive life. PCOS is a multifactorial polygenic disease. Genes that regulate steroidogenesis and folliculogenesis are interested. Hence, AMH measurement has been found to offer a relatively high specificity and sensitivity as a diagnostic marker. Objectives: The study aimed to assess the accuracy of AMH in the prediction of PCOS in patients admitted to Elsayed Galal and El Hussein University Hospital. Subjects and methods: This was a retrospective study that was done on 130 women, divided into two groups, group I include 100 PCOS patients and group II, 30 control subject. Results: The results of this study showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups regarding age, while there was a significant increase in BMI in patients more than in control. The level of LH showed a significant increase in patients more than in the control. The level of FSH showed a significant decrease in patients less than in the control. The Testosterone showed a significant increase in patients more than in the control. The androstenedione showed a significant increase in patients more than in the control group. The AMH showed a highly significant increase in patients more than in the control and in turn the number of follicles in group II (patients) was significantly higher than in the control. The sensitivity of AMH in diagnosis PCOS was 98.0, specificity was 80.0% and the total accuracy was 93.0 at the cutoff of point 0.911. Conclusion: Additional advantages of AMH as diagnostic tool are that it is biological, objective, quantitative marker not affected by day of menses or OCP intake. So in future, more studies should be undertaken to validate its role as diagnostic tool for PCOS.

In 1997, the 21 countries in the World Health Organization (WHO) Eastern Mediterranean Region* (EMR) passed a resolution during the 41st session of the Regional Committee for the Eastern Mediterranean to eliminate measles† (1). In 2015, this goal was included as a priority in the Eastern Mediterranean Vaccine Action Plan 2016-2020 (2), approved at the 62nd session of the Regional Committee (3). To achieve measles elimination, the WHO Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean developed the following four-pronged strategy: 1) achieve ≥95% vaccination coverage with the first dose of measles-containing vaccine (MCV) among children in every district of each country through routine immunization services; 2) achieve ≥95% vaccination coverage with a second MCV dose in every district of each country either through implementation of a routine 2-dose vaccination schedule or through supplementary immunization activities (SIAs)§; 3) conduct high-quality, case-based measles surveillance in all countries; and 4) provide optimal measles clinical case management, including dietary supplementation with vitamin A (4). Pakistan, an EMR country with a population of approximately 200 million, accounts for nearly one third of the overall EMR population. This report describes progress and challenges toward measles elimination in Pakistan during 2000-2018. During the study period, estimated coverage with the first MCV dose (MCV1) increased from 57% in 2000 to 76% in 2017. The second MCV dose (MCV2) was introduced nationwide in 2009, and MCV2 coverage increased from 30% in 2009 to 45% in 2017. During 2000-2018, approximately 232.5 million children received doses of MCV during SIAs. Reported confirmed measles incidence increased from an average of 24.6 per 1 million persons during 2000-2009 to an average of 80.4 during 2010-2018, with peaks in 2013 (230.3) and 2018 (153.6). In 2017 and 2018, the rates of suspected cases discarded as nonmeasles after investigation were 2.1 and 1.5 per 100,000 population, reflecting underreporting of cases. To achieve measles elimination, additional efforts are needed to increase MCV1 and MCV2 coverage, develop strategies to identify and reach communities not accessing immunization services, and increase sensitivity of case-based measles surveillance in all districts.

Background: Variceal hemorrhaging due to portal hypertension is a severe complication of liver cirrhosis. Although several biomarkers have been reported as predictors of the presence of varices, it is still difficult to assess the risk of variceal bleeding without esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD). The ratio of glycated albumin (GA) to glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was reported to increase with the progression of liver fibrosis. The aim of the study was to investigate whether the GA/HbA1c ratio is related to the severity and bleeding risk of the varices. Aim of the work: goal of our study was to assess the value of Glycated albumin to Glycated hemoglobin ratio in the prediction of esophageal varices and assessing its risk of bleeding. Methods: We measured the GA/HbA1c ratio of HCV-related cirrhotic patients and analyzed its relationship with the presence and bleeding risk of varices. Results: The GA/HbA1c ratio was higher in the patients who had the varices with a high risk of hemorrhage than in the patients with a low risk of bleeding. In addition, the GA/HbA1c ratio was higher in patients with varices than that in patients without varices. Furthermore, the GA/HbA1c ratio was the most significantly different parameter of all the factors examined, including the platelet count, prothrombin activity and albumin level. Conclusion: The GA/HbA1c ratio is increased in patients with varices and with the bleeding risk of the varices.

Hearing is an important sense of coexistence, but majority of people taken it for granted unless it is weakened or lost. In this paper, an Assistive Intelligent Hearing Aid System (AIHAS) is proposed that supports hearing impaired patients and allow them to live a normal life. The patients will be required to wear smart glasses equipped with bone conduction technology and wirelessly connected with an application running on patient's smartphone. The AIHAS is designed to: (1) detect multiple ear damages, (2) evaluates the degree of patient's hearing loss, (3) having smart filters with two different modes based on surrounding environment, and (4) assist children with articulation development. The patients will be able to choose between two types of filters i.e. Quiet Room (QR) and Noisy Room (NR) filter depending on the surrounding environment. Additionally, an Auditory Assistive mode is also added to AIHAS to train and assist children with speech disorders caused by hearing impairment at a younger age. The AIHAS also allows interfacing with a smartwatch for easier system access. The system prototype has been developed and tested with multiple patients. The proposed AIHAS is an intelligent, low cost, reliable and a portable solution.

Bu çalışmada; yapay olarak yetiştiricilik yönünden potansiyel tıbbi ve aromatik bitki türleri olan, Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. (Hardal otu), Salvia officinalis L. (Ada Çayı), Satureja hortensis L. (Zahter), Tymus vulgaris L. (Fransız yaz kekiği), Ocimum minumum L. (Fesleğen), Mentha piperita L. (Nane), Hypericum perforatum L. (Sarı Kantaron) ve Prunella vulgaris L. (Yara otu) türleri tohumlarının farklı su stresi koşullarına tepkileri araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla polietilen glikol (PEG 6000) çözeltisi kullanılarak tohumlara farklı su stresi koşulları (kontrol, -2, -4,-6, -8 Bar) uygulanmış ve uygulamanın Çimlenme Hızı (ÇH) ve Çimlenme yüzdesine (ÇY) olan etkileri değerlendirilmiştir. Varyans analizi ve Duncan testi sonuçlarına göre, türlerin su stresine dayanıklılıklarının farklı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çimlenme hızı yönünden Satureja hortensis en yüksek (%33) ÇH değeri gösterirken, Salvia officinalis, Tymus vulgaris ve Prunella vulgaris türleri %2 oranı ile en düşük çimlenme hızı değerlerini göstermiştir. En yüksek ÇH değeri gösteren Satureja hortensis en yüksek değerini %85 ile kontrol işleminde gösterirken, artan su stresi koşulları ile birlikte ÇH azalmıştır. ÇY yönünden de Satureja hortensis en yüksek (%45) ÇY değeri gösterirken, Salvia officinalis (%3), Tymus vulgaris (%8) ve Prunella vulgaris (%6) türleri en düşük ÇY değerlerini göstermiştir. Genel manada, su stresi derecesinin artmasına bağlı olarak çimlenme hızı ve yüzdesi değerlerinde düşüş görülmektedir. -8 Bar kuraklık stresi koşullarında hiçbir türde çimlenme elde edilememiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçlarının kurak ve yarı kurak bölgelerde tıbbi ve aromatik tür bitki yetiştiriciliğinde dikkate alınması ürün verimliliği ve sulama rejiminin düzenlenmesi yönünden katkı sağlayacaktır. In this study, the effects of various drought stress on the seeds of Brassica juncea (L.) Czern., Salvia officinalis L., Satureja hortensis L., Tymus vulgaris L., Ocimum minumum L., Mentha piperita L., Hypericum perforatum L. and Prunella vulgaris L. which are potential medicinal and aromatic plant species in terms of cultivation, were examined. For that reason, various drought stress levels (Control, -2, -4, -6, -8 Bar) applied to the seeds with polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000) and the effects of this application on Germination speed (GS) and Germination percentage (GP) were evaluated. Based on variance analysis and Duncan test, difference among the species for drought resistance were determined. Satureja hortensis showed the highest GS (% 33) whereas Salvia officinalis, Tymus vulgaris and Prunella vulgaris showed the lowest (%2) degree of GS. The highest GS for Satureja hortensis observed in control treatment with % 85 and together with increasing drought stress, the GS is decreased. In terms of GP, Satureja hortensis showed the highest figure ( % 45) whereas Salvia officinalis (% 3), Tymus vulgaris (% 8) and Prunella vulgaris (% 6) showed the lowest level. As a general meaning, germination speed and germination percentage decreased together with increasing of drought stress level. No germination was obtained at -8 Bar stress level for the species. To be used of the result of this study will contribute the productivity and irrigation regimes of the cultivation of medicinal and aromatic plants in arid and semi-arid regions. 32

The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of some diseases in domestic livestock in two protected areas in Saudi Arabia where gazelles have been reintroduced. King Khalid Wildlife Research Centre (KKWRC) was established in 1986 to breed and undertake scientific research on Saudi wildlife for reintroduction purposes. Mountain gazelles (Gazella gazella) were reintroduced to the Ibex Reserve 150 km south of Riyadh in central Saudi Arabia, which supports viable population of wild ibex. Sand gazelles (Gazella marica), Mountain gazelles and Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx) were reintroduced to Uruq Bani Ma’arid (UBM) Reserve in the Al Rub al Khali desert. Domestic livestock (camels, sheep and goats) owned by local people use the Reserves and the area surrounding for grazing and there is contact between these animals and reintroduced wildlife. Two surveys have been carried out at each Reserve. Serum samples collected from 1012 camel, sheep and goats were screened for some viral, bacterial and parasitic diseases that are of particular concern in Saudi Arabia. The results show the presence of antibodies against tuberculosis, brucellosis, bluetongue virus, akabane virus, contagious pustular dermatitis and toxoplasmosis. The Suadi Wildlife Authority (SWA) coordinated with the Ministry of Agriculture and established monitoring and remedial programmes to control diseases reported in the present study. The epidemiological significance, of the study, to wildlife was discussed. Key words: Domestic livestock, serosurvaillence, Ibex Reserve, Uruq Bani Ma’arid, Saudi Arabia

Photographs are considered composite objects with complex chemical and physical structures. Therefore they are more prone to damage as compared to other objects. Chemical degradation is by far the most common decay form found among photographic collections. This study investigates the chemical degradation of silver gelatin prints (DOP) and the reaction of the image, silver, gelatin, and paper to accelerated aging, to the action of light, and oxidizing gases, in terms of their physical and chemical nature. The test materials used are properly washed and poorly washed grayscale, black-and-white processed images on photographic paper (Black & White Photographic Paper BH 0 Bromofort 6P0661 Tropical from Forte Photochemical Company Vác, Hungary). After exposure, the results were studied by means of visual inspection, amino acid analyzer, Fourier transform infrared and transmission electron microscope. The results were compared with those of the control samples. Our study revealed that the image, silver, gelatin and photographic paper are greatly affected by oxidizing agents and that the effect increased if the photographic prints were inadequately washed at the time of their processing. Furthermore, our results indicated that an increased amount of ammonia and amino acid in the silver gelatin print is a reliable indicator of the degradation of its gelatine emulsion.

Olive mills wastewater (OMW) is a critical environmental problem in the Mediterranean area due to its extremely high levels of COD and phenols. In this study, a group of adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate the dynamic response of the pH, COD, phenols, TSS, TDS, and TS concentrations of pretreated OMW, using different concentrations of activated carbon as adsorbent. The pretreatment included sedimentation and filtration of OMW. The pretreated OMW was then subjected to adsorption. A series of adsorption steps in stirred batch vessels were studied, namely, one stage, two-stage countercurrent, and three-stage countercurrent adsorption systems. A combined two- two-stage countercurrent adsorption steps were also studied. Experimental results showed that such treatment protocols were promising. For example, a treatment protocol composed of a three-stage countercurrent adsorption process using activated carbon of concentration of 24 g/L of OMW was able to reduce the COD from 60 000 mg/L down to 22 300 mg/L, while phenols were reduced from 450 to 15 mg/L.

Percutaneous balloon mitral valvoplasty (PBMV) has become the treatment of choice for severe pliable rheumatic mitral stenosis. The multi-track system is a recent variation of the double-balloon technique and is easier owing to the use of a monorail balloon and a simple, single-guidewire approach. In the present study, we used the double-coil Inoue metal wire with a multi-track balloon instead of the conventional multi-track wire. We studied 62 consecutive patients (55 females) with significant symptomatic rheumatic mitral valve stenosis who underwent multi-track PBMV. Patients were randomized into 2 groups: the first group included 32 patients treated with the novel multi-track technique using the double-coil Inoue metal wire, and the second group included 30 patients treated with the conventional multi-track technique using a balloon endhole catheter and multi-track 0.035 inch stiff wire. None of the patients had cardiac tamponade, systemic thromboembolism, or any groin complications. No statistically significant differences were found between the 2 groups regarding any of the studied variables. There were no in-hospital deaths or complications necessitating emergent cardiac surgery in either group. In conclusion, this new technique with the double-coil Inoue metal wire achieves the double benefit of being as safe as (and indeed easier than) the conventional technique, and it utilizes fewer materials, making the multi-track system more cost-effective.
