in this paper we report a case of jejunal atresia that was detected pre-nataly. polyhydramnios and multiple dilated bowel loops in the lower part of fetal abdomen in ulterasonography helped us to diagnose this abnormality. post-natal barium enema showed it and also it was confirmed by laparotomy confirmed it. pre-natal diagnosis is important in these cases to facilitate delivery in centers wher...

Janani-Shishu Suraksha Karyakram (JSSK) and Janani Suraksha Yojana (JSY) were launched with the objective of increasing institutional deliveries. But, its knowledge among the post-natal mothers is not known. This research evaluated the knowledge of two national health programs among post-natal mothers and found out the predictors of good knowledge about the entitlements...

household food security remains a challenge in south africa. the national government instituted the integrated food security strategy (ifss) programme which identifies household agricultural production as an important element of improving household-level food security. agricultural extension is well positioned to help achieve this aim, but its current contribution is unknown. this study identif...

This study deals with correlations of tooth size in human primary teeth. Traditionally, mesiodistal or buccolingual measurements have been used to express crown size. However, in this study, crown area was used as a reference parameter. Graphic reconstructions of 38 histologically prepared human fetuses with Crown-Rump Length (CRL) between 54 and 280 mm were used to obtain linear and area measu...

Pachyonychia congenita (PC) is a group of hereditary syndromes which have in common a hypertrophic dystrophy of the distal nail, and are associated with a variety of additional features, notably various dyskeratoses of skin and mucous membranes. The pathology is unknown but the array of clinical features suggests the possibility of a keratin abnormality. In the present report we describe linkag...

The term Riga-Fede disease has been used historically to describe a traumatic ulceration that occurs on the ventral surface of the tongue in neonates and infants. It is frequently associated with natal or neonatal teeth but may also occur in older infants after the eruption of primary lower incisors. Failure to diagnose and properly treat this lesion can result in dehydration and inadequate nut...

Two fused cyclopentadithiophenebis(dicyanovinylene) derivatives (FCPDT-16 and FCPDT-C24) with a low-lying LUMO energy level (3.88 eV) and a rigid core structurewere successfully synthesized.They have good thermal stability and form highly ordered packing structures both in the bulk solid state and in thin films. The field effect transistors fabricated from a solution of these two compounds show...
