The tumor of the orbital region is defined as a progressive and abnormal increase in the volume of the orbit, its contents or as a progressive, abnormal and simultaneous increase in the volume of these two structures, due to an excessive multiplication of tumor cells leading to a exophthalmos. The objective of this work is to study the clinical, paraclinical and therapeutic aspect of this lesion, and to identify the histological type of the tumor. It was Mrs. AD mother of a child, aged 19, with no known medical and surgical history; admitted on September 28, 2022 to the stomatology and maxillofacial surgery department of the Nianankoro Fomba hospital in Ségou for right ocular exophthalmos accompanied by pain and visual disturbance. Surgical treatment consisted of orbital exenteration, avoiding recurrences and postoperative superinfections and restoring the aesthetics of the face. The cytology result of the surgical specimen reveals a moderately differentiated sarcoma. Facial region tumors are lesions that aesthetically affect patients. Their prognosis and therapeutic follow-up after surgery depend on the histological type confirmed by cytological examination of the surgical specimen.

Disputes are inevitable in construction projects, and cost and time impacts are higher on a project’s performance and successful completion. Therefore, it is essential to prevent disputes from arising or resolve them efficiently once arise. Other than litigation, Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) strategies receive more attention from organizations due to efficiency in dispute settlement. However, when using ADR strategies for dispute resolution, it is vital to select the most suitable technique based on the dispute type and other goals of disputant parties. Therefore, the objective of this study was to identify the factors that impact selecting the most appropriate alternative dispute resolution strategy for construction disputes. By analyzing existing research published from 2019 to 2023, this study revealed three main factor categories that influence ADR selection decisions. Those factor categories are financial factors, organizational factors, and legal factors. This study further identified research gaps that need attention in future research.

Earthquakes are among the hidden forces that threaten human life and the future of civilization. And with the technological progress and studies in space sciences, the Earth did not receive the attention of studies and researches, especially those related to earthquakes. This paper is presents a brief study of the magnetic and physical properties of the elemental compositions of the earth's crust as an attempt to find out the causes of earthquakes. Results of calculations have suggested that compressions and tensions on the earth crust due to the interaction of the earth magnetic field with the magnetic materials in the crust may be one of the main causes of earthquake events.

Necrotizing fasciitis is an infection of the skin and deep subcutaneous tissues, spreading along the fasciae and adipose tissue, mainly caused by Group A streptococcus (Streptococcus pyogenes) but also by other bacteria such as Vibrio vulnificus, Clostridium perfringens or Bacteroides fragilis. Objective: To report a case of Necrotizing Fasciitis received at the Markala Reference Health Center. Clinical observation: It was a 45-year-old rice farmer with no known medical-surgical history received for an extensive wound on the right upper limb evolving for three months with impaired general condition and consciousness. The onset of the symptomatology dates back to about 3 months marked by a paronychia of the pulp of the right thumb extended secondarily to the right forearm. The physical examination finds an extensive necrotic wound of the right upper limb presenting voluminous blisters of brown color with a black background filled with purulent and smelly serosities. The diagnosis of Necrotizing Fasciitis was strongly suspected due to the presence of Pyogenic Streptococcus (Sensitive to gentamycin and Amoxicillin) in the pus sample. The patient was therefore put on antibiotic therapy combining Clavulanic acid at a rate of 2g x 3 per day and gentamicin at a rate of 160 mg per day with wide excision of necrotic tissues under general anesthesia in the operating room followed by a daily dressing with 30V hydrogen peroxide and Polyvidone iodine. The evolution was very favorable with a directed healing on D16. Conclusion: Necrotizing fasciitis is distinguished by its increasingly increasing and worrying frequency, its clinical severity and its detrimental character from a functional and vital point of view, which is why its management must be early.

The aim was to carry out an epidemioclinical and therapeutic study of fractures of the penis at the Csréf in Markala. Patients and methods: This is a retrospective prospective descriptive study of 13 cases of fracture of the penis during four years at the Csréf of Markala from 01 January 2019 to 01 January 2023. All patients who had a treated penis fracture were included in our study. All patients who had other forms of trauma to the penis other than a penis fracture were excluded. Results: The frequency of fracture of the penis was 14.8% compared to other urological injuries. The average age of our patients was 36.30 years with extremes ranging from 25 to 54 years. 53.8% of our patients were single. The average consultation time was 14.8 hours, with extremes ranging from 3 hours to 47 hours. The approach was longitudinal in some cases and in other cases a circumferential incision or at the level of the balano preputial fold. The most frequent complications were penis bending, with 15.5% (2 patients), urethral fistula was observed in one patient (7.7%), and we also noted cases of fibrosis of the erectile bodies (23.1%). Conclusion: The fracture of the penis is a real uro-andrological emergency, and the treatment must be rapid and effective in order to avoid irreversible after-effects, which may even lead to erectile dysfunction or urethral stricture in these patients. The approach must be appropriate in order to prevent short, medium and late complications.

Background: Dry eye is a multifactorial pathology caused by a progressive dysfunction of the lacrimal and Meibomian glands which often leads to reduced aqueous tear production and increased tear evaporation. All these disorders are associated with ocular discomfort such as watering and redness of the eyes resulting from irritation of the ocular surface particularly the cornea. Dry eye is identified as one of the complications of diabetes. Diabetes mellitus is a systemic risk factor for dry eye disease. Objective: To determine the prevalence of dry eye disease in diabetics compared to non-diabetics at National Eye Centre Kaduna. Methods: This study is a comparative cross-sectional study. The study population comprised of types 1 and 2 diabetic patients who are 18years and above attending National Eye Centre Kaduna and non-diabetics age and sex matched subjects. The ocular surface disease index (OSDI) questionnaire was used to subjectively identify subjects with DED. All participants underwent Schirmer’s test and a Tear break-up time to objectively make a diagnosis of DED. Results: A total of 200 participants were assessed in this study. Their ages ranged from 32-74 years (mean 53.2±9.7). Respondents within the age range of 56-65 years had higher frequency of dry eye disease (DED) 43.5%. More females had DED 61.35%. Those with secondary educational status had the highest frequency of DED 40.3%. Diabetic subjects within the age range of 56-65 years old had higher frequency of DED 88.6%. Females have higher rates of DED 80.8%, as against 61.8% among males’ non-Diabetic subjects. Subjects with secondary educational status had the highest frequency of DED 87.5% in diabetic subjects while 71% in non-diabetic. The housewives had the highest percentage of DED 89.5% in diabetic subjects while 95% in non-diabetic subjects. The result further revealed the prevalence of 76% among diabetic patients while prevalence of 48% for non-diabetic patients. A significant positive correlation between subjective assessment and objective clinical tests. Conclusion: Patients with diabetes have a higher prevalence of DED than non-diabetic population in National Eye Centre, Kaduna. Women were found to have a higher prevalence. There was a significant association between DED and duration diabetes. There is a correlation between objective clinical tests and subjective assessment in both diabetic and non-diabetic population.
A glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is an uncommon jawbone cyst of odontogenic origin with characteristic histological findings of a lined epithelium that contains mucous cells, ciliated cells, and intraepithelial gland-like structures. We herein report a case of GOC arising in the upper left back tooth region in a 31-year-old female patient. An IOPA radiograph revealed a well-defined unilocular radiolucent area extending from the distal aspect of the root of left first molar to the distal aspect of third molar on the same side. The patient was treated by extraction of 26, 27 & 28 followed by enucleation of the cystic lesion. The surgical specimen was histologically examined and diagnosed as a GOC.

Marriages carried out between husband and wife, sometimes cannot run as the purpose of marriage. If it cannot be maintained, then the path taken is divorce. In Article 19 Paragraph (4) states that the reason that can be used in filing for divorce is that one party commits cruelty or severe abuse that endangers the other party which is also a form of domestic violence and can be the cause of disputes and conflicts that occur in the household. Acts of domestic violence are not limited to physical violence in the form of abuse such as: slapping, hitting, kicking and even killing. As for the form of persecution that is psychological or psychological violence. Research Objectives: To analyze what are the current weaknesses in the Regulation on Reasons for Filing Divorce Due to Domestic Violence; To find out how to reconstruct the Law on Reasons for Filing Divorce Due to Domestic Violence based on justice. The research method uses the Constructivism Paradigm with non-doctrinal legal research with an empirical juridical approach. The study results show that (1) Weaknesses in the Regulation on Reasons for Filing for Divorce Due to Domestic Violence. Weaknesses in a legal substance: Elucidation of Article 39 Paragraph (2) of the Marriage Law and Article 19 letter d of Government Regulation 9 of 1975 only provides rules for physical violence. Weaknesses in the legal structure: The weak mentality of law enforcement officials results in law enforcement not working as it should. Weaknesses in legal culture: Domestic violence is a problem that is closely related to gender bias which is common in patriarchal societies. (2) Reconstruction of Regulations on Reasons for Filing Divorce Due to Acts of Domestic Violence. The formulations in Article 39 Paragraph (2) and the Explanatory Articles of the Marriage Law do not contain forms other than physical violence, such as psychological violence and sexual violence.

Adnexal torsion is a spontaneous rotation of the ovary and sometimes the fallopian tube around its axis which can interfere with arterial supply and lead to ischemia It is a rare complication of an ovarian cyst, which can occur at any age, from the fetal period to adulthood. The mature cystic teratoma accounts for 20% of all ovarian tumors and is seen especially in young girls and therefore is most often benign. It's a surgical emergency. We report here two cases of adnexal torsion operated at the level of the pediatric surgery unit of the Hospital of Mali The two girls are 14 and 13 years old, nulligest and normoregulated with recurrent abdominal pain admitted for acute pelvic pain. On palpation, an abdomino-pelvic mass of a firm and painful consistency is noted. An abdominopelvic ultrasound was performed in both cases and revealed torsion of the left adnexa on the left ovarian cyst in the first and on the right in the second. The surgical procedure performed was manual detorsion and cystectomy in both cases. The anatomopathological examination concluded with a dermoid cyst In the two girls and their postoperative course was simple.

This research is motivated by the regulation of criminal sanctions against criminal acts of sexual violence based on the value of sexual justice based on the value of customary justice in Nias. Indonesia based on Article 18B of the Constitution of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia recognizes and respects customary law units along with their traditional rights as long as they are still alive and by the development of society and the principles of the unitary state of the Republic. Indonesia, for this reason, in cases of criminal acts of sexual violence that occurred in Nias, justice must also be paid attention to, which originates from Nias customary law. This study aims to analyze and find the main points of regulation of criminal sanctions against crimes of sexual violence, which originate from the value of sexual justice on Nias customary justice values. This research is normative juridical research with statutory and conceptual approaches. The results of this study indicate the current weaknesses in the regulation of criminal acts of sexual violence, so it is necessary to update them. In addition, it cannot also let go of the role of society and culture in this matter. These two things play a role in shaping the public's view of cases of sexual violence. Reconstruction of regulations on sanctions for crimes of sexual violence stems from the justice values of Pancasila concerning customary law in Nias.

Avicennia marina is a commonly found mangrove species in coastal regions, and is known for its medicinal properties. In this study, the antibacterial and antifungal activities of ethanolic extract of Avicennia marina leaves were evaluated against MDR microorganisms. The antimicrobial activity of the extract was assessed against a range of bacterial strains, including Salmonella sp. (MDR), Klebsiella sp. (MDR), Pseudomonas sp. (MDR), Acinetobacter sp. (MDR), Staphylococcus aureus as well as the fungal strain Candida albicans (ATCC 10231), Candida parapsilosis (ATCC 22019). The results showed that the leaf extracts of Avicennia marina exhibited significant antimicrobial activity against all tested MDR microorganisms. The phytochemical content of the plant includes many bioactive compounds - flavonoids, tannins, and alkaloids, which may be responsible for the observed antimicrobial activities. These findings suggest that Avicennia marina may be a potential source of natural antimicrobial agents, which could be used to develop new drugs for the treatment of resistant bacterial and fungal infections. Further studies are needed to identify and isolate the active compounds responsible for the observed activity and to evaluate their efficacy and safety in vivo.

To achieve a more appealing smile, an orthodontic technique known as Invisalign might be utilised. Invisalign procedures may be beneficial if you have an overbite, crossbite, or deepbite. Transparent plastic aligner trays are used to gradually straighten the teeth during the operation. Patients may maintain their oral health and wellbeing by simply removing the trays, without having to worry about brackets and wires that may make it difficult. The primary goal of this study is to evaluate previous studies and review all available evidence on how Invisalign can treat deep bites. The comprehensive search will use Medline, PubMed Central, Embase, and other databases. The literature review is completed in English with the goal of reviewing the material that describes how Invisalign can treat deep bites. In recent years, the importance of appearance in personal and professional lives has spurred significant interest in orthodontic treatment among adults. The transparency of the Invisalign appliance boosts its visual appeal for mature patients who are hesitant using conventional labial fixed braces.
