In vitro Antibacterial and Anti-Fungal Activities of Methanolic Extract of Mentha pulegium

Pneumothorax is relatively more frequent in the first month of life than in other times of life. We aim to analyze the demographics, characteristics, incidence, factors associated, seasonality, treatment modality and mortality of pneumothorax of newborns. The methods that we used were a cross-sectional study of 97 newborns with pneumothorax over a period of 24 months January 2017 and December 2018. The patient's demography and characteristics of delivery were studied. Additional analyses of the incidence, severity, risk factors associated it, monthly and seasonal variation, diagnostic workup, treatment modality and mortality of pneumothorax. Our results show that the pneumothorax was diagnosed in 97newborns with an incidence of 7.1%. 57 were males and 40 were females. 43% were preterm and 57% was the term. The birth weight was normal in 60 newborns. 64% were born inside the hospital. 61% were delivered by cesarean section. Of these, 57% right side, 40% left side and 3% bilateral. Pneumothorax was mild in 11%, 48% moderate and 41% tension. A slight spring and summer preponderance, 19(20%) ,19(20%) occurred in spring (2017,2018 )respectively and 17(18%),18(19%) in summer (2017,2018)respectively . Active resuscitation was the predominant associated factor that occurred in 39%. 97% of pneumothorax required drainage. 21% of newborns died. The highest mortality was observed in severe pneumothorax. We concluded that the incidence of newborns pneumothorax was relatively frequent. Newborns resuscitation should be done very carefully. More studies are needed to investigate the seasonal factors of pneumothorax in the 1st month of life.

This study compares the diagnostic of "Tonsillitis" is inflammation of the pharyngeal tonsils and is also known as pharyngitis to extend the inflammation to the adenoid and the lingual tonsils. Most cases of bacterial tonsillitis occur group β-"hemolytic Streptococcus pyogenes" (GABHS), "S. aureus" generally. The current study aims to bacterial profile assessment with serum CRP, antibodies RF, and Anti-CCP in acute & chronic tonsillitis patients in Babylon Province. Completely, (45) a sample of blood and swabs of (22-56) years of male and female tonsillitis patients. Sera antibodies of (CRP, RF, and anti-CCP) identified by serological techniques for every one of these patients. Results showed that the culture of the samples gave all patient 45 positive growths and the presentation of the positive conclusion in grams of positive bacteria and negative grams depending on the staining. The highest percentages of S. pyogenes and S. aureus in patients with tonsillitis of other pathogens. Additionally, it is the highest proportion of tonsillitis disease is unlike the healthy individual's group according to different criteria by age group (21-59) years, disease duration (4-13) years, females and autoantibody tests (CRP, RF, and Anti-CCP antibodies) in patients with tonsillitis patients (acute & chronic). Our study concluded that it is important to determine the values of these criteria for their effects on patients suffering from acute and chronic tonsillitis.

“…A new process for the isolation of sperms with a low level of fragmented DNA depends on utilizing an electrical charge-based technology in IVF (16) . A randomized trial conducted by Karimi et al reported that the Zeta method is a new method to enhance the outcome of assisted reproduction in infertile men (17)(18)(19) . Further studies need to investigate the real factors behind the association between implantation site and fetal sex.…”

The Prediction of fetal sex by early pregnancy ultrasound localizing the implantation site lateralization consider a very important step in investigation, in this work will be questionable results, the genetic factor, fetal sex determination might be influenced by other factors. Why male sex has a predilection for right-sided implantation while female sex implanted on the left side of the uterus so this study aimed to assess the accuracy of fetal sex prediction by localization of the implantation site at 5-7weeks of gestation using the two dimensional trans-abdominal U/S.
