Advancedstage diagnosis and mortality from colorectal cancer before 50 years of age are increasing. This is not a detection-bias effect;it is a real issue affecting the entire population. Three independent computational models indicate that screening from 45 years of age would yield a better balance of benefits and risks than the current start at 50 years of age. Experimental data support these predictions in a sex- and race-independent manner. Earlier screening is seemingly affordable, with minimal impediments to providing younger adults with colonoscopy. Indeed, the American Cancer Society has already started to recommend screening from 45 years of age in the United States. Implementing early screening is a societal and public health problem. The three independent computational models that suggested earlier screening were criticized for assuming perfect compliance. Guidelines and recommendations should be derived from well-collected and reproducible data, and not from mathematical predictions. In the era of personalized medicine, screening decisions might not be based solely on age, and sophisticated prediction software may better guide screening. Moreover, early screening might divert resources away from older individuals with greater biological risks. Finally, it is still unknown whether early colorectal cancer is part of a continuum of disease or a biologically distinct disease and, as such, it might not benefit from screening at all. The increase in early-onset colorectal cancer incidence and mortality demonstrates an obligation to take actions. Earlier screening would save lives, and starting at the age of 45 years may be a robust screening option.展开更多

However, the associated sequent problems are proportionally high. Almost two thirds of PROM are spontaneous, common risk factor young mother, multiple pregnancy, genital tract infection, previous preterm delivery. The complications range from induction of labour, caesarean section, fetal pulmonary morbidity and even mortality. Objectives of the Study: To identify and quantify the risk factors and complications of premature rupture of membrane in pregnant women in Benghazi, Libya, 2012. Material and Methods: 100 pregnant women diagnosed as PROM were examined for the physical signs. Detailed gynaecological and obstetric history was reported. Laboratory investigations included cervical swabs and posterior fornix swabs under aseptic conditions Drugs including types of antibiotics, Dexamethasone and tocolytics were also included. Results: The mean age of 100 patients was 28.9 years. Most of them, 66.1% of patients received antibiotis mostly Erythromycin. Dexamethasone was given for 32.1%. FTND accounted for 62% and PTND for 10% and Caesarean section was performed for 28%. The main indications for C/S were failed induction, in 50%, 11.8% were equally distributed between;macrosomia, previous scars, drained liquor, previous C/S, breech presentation. Only 1% of new born babies had complication. Conclusions and Recommendations: Further large studies should be done for more elaboration and analytical studies to quantify the strength of each risk factor. Strategy for management of PROM should be adopted for proper timing of induction, emergency caesarean intervention with ultimate goals of minimizing and or preventing maternal and fetal complications of disease.展开更多

The risk factors for CoNS infections include patients who are immunocompromised, implanted with foreign bodies or with indwelling devices. The aim of this study was to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns and presence of mecA gene in methicillin resistant CoNS isolated in a teaching and referral hospital in Kenya. Methodology: This was a cross sectional retrospective study. Archived isolates were sub-cultured on 5% sheep blood agar. Speciation and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns were performed by Vitek2 technique. The presence of mecA gene was determined by (PCR). Results: A total of seven species were identified with Staphylococcus epidermidis having the highest percentage at 45.4% and Staphylococcus warneri with the lowest at 2.6%. High resistance to antibiotics that were tested was observed regardless of the source of the isolate. MecA gene was found in 90% of the isolates. Conclusion: Coagulase negative Staphylococci exhibited high levels of resistance generally. Most of the isolates carried the mecA gene. Despite some of the isolates being resistant to Cefoxitin, the mecA gene was not found. There is a possibility that methicillin resistance in these isolates is mediated using a different mechanism.展开更多

Staphylococci were isolated from 13 (68.42%) fresh seafood samples, while 3 (15.78%) samples harbored coagulase-positive S. aureus. Resistance to methicillin was observed in 16 isolates of Staphylococcus spp., 15 of which were coagulase-negative S. aureus (MR-CoNS) and one was a coagulase-positive S. aureus (MRSA). The mecA gene is detected by PCR in 10 MR-CoNS and one MRSA strain. The lmrS gene, which codes for a multidrug efflux pump LmrS, is detected only in coagulase-positive isolates.展开更多

It can be induced by a variety of events such as hypoxia, nutrient-starvation, and mechanical damage. Many neurological disorders such Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington’s disease, cerebral ischemia, and acute spinal cord injury (ASCI), are closely related to autophagy. However, therapeutic strategies to manipulate autophagy have not yet been fully deciphered due to the limited knowledge of the molecular mechanisms underlying autophagy in these disorders.展开更多
