Platelet activation plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Pharmacological platelet inhibition with P2Y12 receptor antagonists and aspirin, together with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are the cornerstone of treatment of ACS patients.
Chest pain and
Breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women; it causes the highest number of cancer-related deaths among them globally. The prognosis has improved considerably over the past 30 years, and the 5-year survival rate of patients has been increased due to the advances in the early detection and
Synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) are new human-made mind-altering chemicals which are similar to chemicals found in the marijuana plant; they are recent to be used recreationally, especially by young adults[1]. This new generation of novel cannabinoid compounds has been developed to avoid drug control
PPH occurs in approximately 1-5% of deliveries in the United States and accounts for 20-25% of maternal deaths worldwide. PPH is difficult to predict, but classically, risk factors for PPH- uterine atony, abruption, retained tissue, lacerations, infection, obesity, preeclampsia, magnesium

OBJECTIVE Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a public health problem in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The presence of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD is a risk factor for its progression to a more severe liver disease known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
MCA Stroke is a fatal disease with reported mortality of about 80% of cases without decompressive craniectomy. Osmotic agents like hypertonic saline & mannitol have been used in acute MCA stroke cases without no evidence of benefit. Its use in elevated ICP can be only justified as a bridge to the

Despite the recent advances in treatment, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) frequently results in permanent myocardial injury imposing an increased risk for adverse cardiac remodelling, diminished cardiac function and the development of heart failure. Decreased cardiac function after PPCI is
Herbal medicine products are dietary supplements that people take to improve their health. Many herbs have been used for a long time for claimed health benefits. They are sold as tablets, capsules, powders, beverages, extracts and fresh or dried plants. Herbal medicines have been associated with
Background and Rationale:
Locally relapsed prostate cancer presents an attractive target for gene therapy because the tumour remains localised to the prostate or to the surrounding tissue for a long phase of the disease. Also the delivery of gene therapy vectors to the prostate is straightforward
Hip and knee arthroplasty are safe and reliable surgeries for the majority of patients, but a small percentage experience major complications such as myocardial infarction, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and pulmonary embolism (PE). As these complications are related to local tissue hypoxemia and
1.1 BACKGROUND
Maternal haemorrhage is a significant cause of maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide. The incidence of postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) with blood loss in excess of 1000ml is estimated to affect 10.5% of live births globally. This translate to a staggering number of 14 million women
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Mean postoperative pain score for the first 24 hours post-operatively, (measured by the Numeric Rating Scale [NRS], which rates pain on a 1-10 scale, collected routinely on the post-operative floor) will be compared between the epidural and no-epidural groups.
SECONDARY
Background Some maternal blood loss normally occurs at the time of vaginal delivery. The best estimates indicate that a loss of approximately 500 mL is average, with a range of about 250-700 mL.[1,2] Some of this bleeding arises from birth canal lacerations or surgical incisions (i.e., episiotomy),
